Ever wonder what really goes into creating the kind of flawless nails that make you feel put together from fingertip to toe? It all begins with the carefully chosen tools inside every professional nail technician’s kit.
At our nail salon in NYC, every tool has a purpose, and every purpose serves your experience.
E-Files and Diamond Bits
The secret behind our signature Russian manicure is our high-performance electric files and diamond bits. These allow us to gently and precisely remove excess cuticle for a cleaner finish and longer-lasting polish. It’s a refined skill we’ve perfected over the years, and not something you’ll find in your average nail salon.
Cuticle Pushers and Nippers
Professional-grade stainless steel cuticle pushers and nippers allow us to perform cuticle work without damaging the nail bed. At Gilded Ritual, our tools are not only salon-quality, but they’re also sterilized between each use to exceed industry hygiene standards.
Nail Forms and Buffers
Our techs use sculpting forms to extend your nails with perfect symmetry, catering to your wishes – whether you’re looking for strength, length, or structure. And our multi-grit buffers ensure your nail surface is prepped with care for flawless gel adhesion.
Gel Pots, BIAB, and Luxe Lacquers
From durable gels to breathable BIAB (Builder in a Bottle) formulas, our technicians carry an extensive range of finishes to suit every nail type and personal preference. And of course, we stock the finest curated polish brands in shades that range from classic nude to edgy couture.
Moisturisers and Oils
Cuticle oils, hand serums, and rich creams are tucked into every tech’s station. We complete every service with hydration because healthy skin supports strong, beautiful nails. Every kit also includes hospital-grade disinfectants and skin-friendly prep solutions.
While tools matter, what sets us apart is how we use them. Every nail technician in our salon is trained to use these instruments not just with technical precision, but with care, creativity, and intention. We don’t rush. We don’t cut corners. And we never treat beauty as something superficial.
