Tip of the day: Before booking a nail appointment, always check that your nail technician uses an autoclave sterilizer for their metal instruments. At M&A Nail Design, this is a non-negotiable standard. Here's why this detail makes all the difference for the health of your nails.
Why Choose M&A Nail Design for Your Nails in Nantes?
Are you looking for a nail technician in Nantes who combines technical expertise and creativity? You have probably already experienced this frustration: a gel set that lasts two weeks, damaged cuticles, or nail art that doesn't look like the inspiration photo. These problems are avoidable when you choose the right salon.
M&A Nail Design, located at Rue Charles Rivière in Rezé (44400), just minutes from Nantes, was born from an obsession: to make each nail a unique, durable, and well-cared-for piece. Founded by Ana-Maria and Madalina, both nail artists with 8 years of experience, the salon applies an impeccable hygiene protocol at every appointment.
Recognized Technical Expertise
Unlike a classic manicure, nail prosthetics requires precise mastery of materials and techniques. At M&A Nail Design, each service is designed for durability and nail health.
Did you know? A well-done gel/form extension can last 3 to 4 weeks without lifting. This is exactly the recommended frequency for maintenance fills at M&A Nail Design.
A Professional and Welcoming Environment
The salon offers hand and foot services in a space designed for well-being. The team takes the time to understand your expectations before each application. Whether you come for a simple manicure or a complete transformation, you benefit from personalized attention.
Our Excellent Gel and Semi-Permanent Nail Services
M&A Nail Design offers a full range of services adapted to all needs. Here is a detailed overview of what you can expect.
Full Gel/Form Extension
The nail extension using forms is the salon's flagship technique for lengthening and structuring natural nails. Two options are available to you:
The gel used is professional quality, guaranteeing optimal hold without weakening the natural nail. Maintenance fill is scheduled every 3 to 4 weeks (75 minutes, €35).
Semi-Permanent and Rubber Base
The semi-permanent nail polish in Nantes is the ideal solution for those who want a shiny, long-lasting color without extensions. The application takes 60 minutes for €30, with an impeccable finish.
The rubber base (70 minutes, €35) is a flexible base that strengthens the natural nail. This service is particularly recommended for fragile or damaged nails from previous applications.
Prices at a Glance
Good to know: Professional removal at only €5 is a real bargain. Many salons charge between €10 and €15 for this service. At M&A Nail Design, removal is done without damaging the nail, unlike home methods that can cause irreversible damage.

Client testimonial: “I came for a wedding nail art. I had shown a photo of babyboomer with gold touches. The result was even more beautiful than the image. My nails held perfectly throughout the honeymoon.” — Sophie, married in May 2026 in Nantes.
Hygiene and Nail Health: Our Commitments
Hygiene is the fundamental pillar of any nail prosthetics salon. At M&A Nail Design, this aspect is taken with the utmost seriousness.
A Strict Protocol
The salon applies an impeccable hygiene protocol at every appointment. This includes: - Sterilization of metal instruments in an autoclave - Use of single-use products when possible - Systematic disinfection of the work station between each client - Wearing of gloves and masks by nail artists
Why is Hygiene Crucial?
Fungal and bacterial infections related to nail care affect about 15% of clients in non-compliant salons. A rigorous hygiene protocol eliminates this risk.
Legal reminder: In France, nail prosthetics salons must comply with hygiene standards defined by the Public Health Code. Non-compliance can lead to criminal penalties. At M&A Nail Design, these standards are not only respected but exceeded.
Natural Nail Health
Contrary to popular belief, a well-done gel application does not weaken the nail. The secret lies in: - Using a rubber base to strengthen the nail - Professional removal without forcing - Regular fills every 3-4 weeks - Application of professional quality products
