Book Nail Art Appointment →Our Specialty
Most LA nail salons offer "nail art" as an afterthought. At ColorLab, it's our signature. Our Korean-trained artists hand-paint micro-details, sculpt 3D charms, layer chrome powders, and create fully bespoke sets where no two nails are alike.
Bring a Pinterest board, an Instagram screenshot, or just a vibe — we'll translate it into nails you'll photograph for weeks.
Art We Create
Tiny mushrooms, ladybugs, flowers, characters, abstract florals. Each nail painted individually with precision brushes — true micro-art.
Liquid metal finish in silver, gold, rose gold, or rainbow holographic. Full-nail, French tip, or accent — high impact every time.
Magnetic pigments pulled into deep shimmer streaks. Most popular in teal, emerald, and burgundy. Hypnotic depth that photos can't quite capture.
Crystals, pearls, bows, butterflies, hearts, gold flakes. Built up with gel for a sculptural raised effect — perfect for events and statement sets.
Classic white, colored tips, glitter tips, chrome tips, V-cut French, micro-French. The most versatile minimalist design — endlessly variable.
Korean "glazed donut" with pearlized chrome powder, milky base shimmer, mother-of-pearl finish. Soft, elegant, photographs beautifully.
