Trained at esteemed institutes including the Ottawa Academy of Beauty, Essence Massage & Spa’s aestheticians renew nails with CND Shellac manicures and pedicures. Settling into quiet confines furnished with black leather pedicure chairs, guests relax as skilled professionals remove any remnants of old polish or drywall spackle before filing and buffing nails. Digits then plunge into a softening soak and resurface ready for cuticle grooming, followed by a scrub and massage that reinvigorate wearied extremities. For the finale, aestheticians tip talons in a CND Shellac gel which dries to a 14-day mirror finish and resists chipping even when clam-digging barehanded. During the approximately one-hour manicure and pedicure, patrons my sip complimentary coffee or tea.
