How Pricing Works

Four Things to Know Before You Book

Nail pricing in Vancouver varies wildly from studio to studio, often because the included services differ. At Wincasinolic we keep our rates honest by being specific about what is in each price and what is not. The three factors that move a quote up or down are nail length, the amount of removal work required, and whether you have chosen a hand-painted design.

Lengths and shapes

Short and medium lengths are included in the base price. Long and extra-long sets carry a small surcharge.

Removal of existing product

If you arrive with gel or acrylic from another studio, we add a flat soak-off fee unless you are booking a new full service.

Nail art complexity

Simple line work is fast and inexpensive. Chrome, foil, rhinestones and hand-painted scenes are quoted per nail.

Combined appointments

If you book two services in one visit — for example a gel manicure plus a pedicure — we apply a bundle discount.

Pricing FAQs

Questions About Cost

A handful of the pricing questions we get asked most often. If yours is not here, send us a message and we will answer it plainly.

Soak-off removal takes time and leaves the nail plate in a state that needs treatment before new product can be applied. When we remove our own work as part of a refill, that cost is absorbed into the refill price. Removing another studio's product is a standalone service, so it is charged separately.

Yes, but modestly. Lengths up to roughly 3 mm of free edge are included. Beyond that we add $10 for medium and $25 for long or extra-long sets, because both product usage and sculpting time increase noticeably.

If the product has failed — lifting along the cuticle line, cracking under normal wear — we repair it free of charge within 48 hours. If the break was caused by trauma, such as catching a nail on a door handle, a single-nail repair is charged at $8.

For packages and memberships above $100, yes. A 50% deposit secures the booking and the balance is settled on the day of service. We do not offer credit beyond a single appointment.

No. Wincasinolic charges the same rate every day the studio is open. Saturday appointments do fill up quickly, so we recommend booking at least a week in advance if that is your preferred slot.
