At Meraki Salon in Mountainside, NJ, we offer polish changes with both traditional nail polish and gel options.

Service Description
Your polish change starts with gentle removal of your existing color. For gel removal, we use a soak-off method that protects your natural nails.
Your technician performs a light buff to smooth the nail surface, then applies your new color in thin, even coats. For gel polish, each layer is cured under an LED lamp.
A quick-dry top coat or LED cure ensures you leave with nails that are completely dry and ready to go. The entire service takes about 15–20 minutes.

Meraki Salon makes it easy to keep your nails looking their best between full manicure appointments. Our polish changes are fast, affordable, and always applied with professional precision.
