What Shayne brings, and what you’ll need.

The salon arrives in a couple of pretty boxes and is set up half an hour before your guests do. All you need to find is a table.

  • Shayne bringsThe whole shelf of kid-friendly polish, sparkle toppers, nail files for every guest, cushions, mirrors, towels, a table cover and gentle remover for any wobbles.
  • You’ll needA table, good light and somewhere for the kids to sit or kneel. Inside is best, so nails aren’t chasing a breeze.
  • A grown-up on siteA parent or carer stays at the party the whole time. Shayne looks after the nails; you look after the kids.
  • Tell us about allergiesMention any allergies or sensitive skin when you book, so we can leave out anything that isn’t right.

Events and stalls.

A pop-up nail stall for school galas, fairs, markets, club prize-givings and work family days. Kids queue up, pick a colour and get a quick, tidy paint with a sparkle on top.

We also paint flower girls and junior bridesmaids on the morning of a wedding, so their nails match the day.

Events are priced by the hour. Tell us how long it runs and roughly how many kids to expect, and we’ll send you a quote.

Nail care for grown-ups.

A proper sit-down for your own hands: shape, file, a tidy of the cuticles and your choice of polish. Calm, unhurried and done at your place.

Add one to a kids’ party for $35 while the little ones dry, or book an appointment on its own. Bridal parties and mums’ nights in are welcome too.

Booking questions.

How do I lock in a date?

Send an enquiry from the booking page. Shayne confirms the date and the plan with you, then sends an invoice. A deposit holds your spot.

What if we need to change the date?

Let us know as soon as you can. If there’s a free slot, we’ll move your party to it.

Is it just for girls?

Not at all. Bluebell, Mermaid Mint and a sparkle topper are popular with everyone, and plenty of kids just want one bold nail.

What kind of nail art do you do?

Simple, cheerful designs that suit small nails and short attention spans: stars, hearts, dots, rainbows and ladybirds.

How long does the polish last?

Kids’ polish is gentler than salon polish, so it’s made to come off more easily. Expect a few days of sparkle, depending on how much climbing and sandpit time is involved.

Found the one?

Send us the date and how many guests, and we’ll come back to you with a plan and a price.
