Nail salon in Chennai open on Sunday with parking: what to know

Based Aesthetics, our nail studio in Kilpauk, is open every day from 11 to 8, Sunday included, and there is parking on site. The hours do not change at the weekend, so Sunday is an ordinary working day for us.

If you are searching for a nail salon in Chennai that is open on a Sunday, here is what to know before you go, and what to look for once you are in the chair.

The basics

• Address: 11/5 Sundar Lal Nahata Avenue, Kilpauk.
• Hours: 11 to 8, every day of the week.
• Parking: on site, so you are not hunting for a spot on the road.
• Who we see: women and men are both welcome.
• To check a time: WhatsApp +91 98848 96963.

Open and parking are the easy part

A salon being open on a Sunday tells you when you can go. It does not tell you how clean the tools are. That is the question worth asking anywhere, on any day of the week.

Here is how it works with us. Every reusable metal tool is sterilised in a Class-B autoclave at 134°C, then sealed in a pouch with an indicator strip. The pouch is opened in front of you. Files and buffers are single-use, and they go home with you.

Two more things are worth checking: whether cuticles get cut, and what the extensions are made of. We push cuticles back and never cut them. We do not use acrylic; our extensions are gel, soft gel or polygel.

What you can come in for

Here is what the studio offers, with starting prices:

• Manicure from ₹1,000, pedicure from ₹1,200.
• Gel polish manicure ₹1,700, or a gel polish pedicure at ₹1,700. Long-wear gel lasts about 3 weeks.
• Extensions in gel, soft gel or polygel from ₹2,200 for both hands, colour included. Sets last about 3 weeks.
• BIAB from ₹2,200.
• Nail art add-ons from ₹250 for simple art; detailed art is ₹1,500.

The same studio also does lash extensions, lash lifts, HydraFacial and red light therapy. Every service, with its price and time, is on the full list at basedaesthetics.co/prices. If you want the detail first, we have already answered what nail extensions cost in Chennai and what a manicure and pedicure cost.

Not sure what you need?

You do not have to decide before you arrive. You can start with the free nail scan at basedaesthetics.co/scanner from home. In the studio, we also offer a free nail assessment of 30 to 40 minutes, so bring your questions about gel polish, BIAB or extensions to it.

If a nail looks infected, hurts, or has changed in a way that worries you, see a doctor first. A salon comes second.
