Signature Manicures
Builder Manicure
A thick self leveling gel that adds structure and strength to the natural nail. Excellent for long nails because it adds significant strength and protection to prevent breakage.
Gel X Manicure
A modern, gentle alternative to acrylics — strong, lightweight, and beautifully natural.
Pre-shaped soft gel tips are carefully applied and finished with your choice of color for a flawless, long-lasting extension.
Gel Manicure
Long-lasting, chip-resistant manicure. The process involves shaping the nails, applying a gel base coat, color coats, and a topcoat, with each layer requiring a curing session under a lamp.
Dip Manicure
Each nail is layered with a lightweight bonding base and dipped into a fine powder for color and strength. Finished with meticulous shaping and a GEL top coat.
Dip-Gel Manicure
A multi-step hybrid using gel base coat, dip powder, and finished with a gel top coat for unmatched strength, smoothness, and long-lasting shine. Includes shaping, and cuticle work.
Little Princess Manicure
Designed for our tiniest guests, this service adds a touch of sparkle and fun while keeping nails healthy and natural.
Includes gentle shaping, and polish in their favorite color or glitter shade — finished with a lotion and cuticle oil.

About The Polished Pearl
Hey y’all! I’m Caitlin, founder of The Polished Pearl. I believe your nails should make you feel confident and polished — without sacrificing comfort or nail health. I specialize in builder gel, soft gel, and structured manicures that combine long-lasting strength with a naturally beautiful finish. Whether you’re a regular or a first-time guest, you’ll always receive care that’s clean, meticulous, and personalized. My favorite products are Luminary, OPI, Apres, Gelish, and DND! I can’t wait to do your nails!
“I tend to be indecisive about colors, but Caitlin has a way of picking out shades I’d never think to try. She’ll even test a few on my nails so I can see how they look, which makes the decision so much easier. I like my nails really short, and her recommendation for the dip gel blend manicure was a game-changer. It’s durable, smooth, and always flawless. She’s incredibly patient with my indecisiveness, but she never sacrifices on quality or engaging conversation!”
