Our story
Riviera Nails opened on Τσιμισκή with one chair, one lamp, and an appointment book that fit on a single page. Elena had spent six years working behind other people's counters, fitting clients into fifteen-minute gaps, and wanted somewhere she could take the time a set actually needs.
How we work
Every set starts with the nail, not the colour. Cuticles are tidied, the plate is balanced and the shape is agreed before anything is painted. It is slower at the start and it is the reason the colour still sits flat three weeks later.
We keep the appointment book deliberately short. One client at a time, no double-booking across chairs, and enough room between appointments that nobody is rushed out under a lamp that has not finished curing.
A manicure should still look deliberate three weeks later. If it does not, we did the first ten minutes wrong.
