Amy's Nails Plus, Pittsford

A gel manicure at Amy's Nails Plus doesn't come with the risk of cracked nails and chipped cuticles sometimes associated with acrylic polish. That's because beauty technician Amy specializes in Bio Seaweed Gel polish, a more natural alternative to acrylic that treats nails with the same vibrant colors, only without some of the added chemicals—including formaldehyde. Here, guests lounge in the comfort of the cozy nail salon while Amy clips their nails to precise, straight lines and ends each session with a hand massage.
