✨ MEET LEILANI ✨

If you’ve sat at Leilani’s nail table, you already know she is equal parts creative, detail obsessed, and probably working on some tiny piece of nail art that looks physically impossible. 😂💅🏽

Leilani became a licensed nail artist in December 2025 and is coming up on her first full year behind the table! She has always loved art and getting her nails done, but it wasn’t until 2025 that she realized she could turn that creativity into a career.

What really pushed her toward nails was experiencing a clean, professional salon for the first time and realizing how different the experience could feel. She fell in love with nails all over again, made a new friend in the process, and got to watch that artist’s business grow. Now she gets to be on the other side of the table creating that same experience for her own clients. 🥹

💅🏽 THE NAIL STUFF

Leilani offers builder gel, hard gel, fiberglass gel, gel extensions, and acrylic.

She considers herself a natural nail specialist and LOVES helping clients grow their natural nails. Whether she’s repairing damage, helping you find the right enhancement for your lifestyle, or patiently growing your nails week by week until you finally get that dream overlay with no tips, that process is one of her favorite parts of the job.

Her favorite shape?

STILETTO. No hesitation. 😂

She is currently obsessed with chrome and color shifting cat eye, and if you really want to make her day…

BOOK. THE. FREESTYLE.

Give her a couple unrushed hours, a little creative freedom, and let her do her thing. 👏🏽

She loves everything from super clean solid color sets to completely detailed art on all 10 fingers. Honestly, she’s perfectly happy if you put on a show, fall asleep in her chair, and let her disappear into her little nail art world for a few hours.

One of her most memorable sets so far was a cat eye and chrome koi fish set, and she would REALLY like everyone to request more color shifting cat eye immediately. 😂

✨ SOMETHING SHE WISHES CLIENTS KNEW

Not every nail product works the same on every person!

Your natural nails, lifestyle, daily activities, and nail growth all play a part in what enhancement will work best for you. Sometimes it takes a little trial and error to find your perfect product, and Leilani LOVES finally finding the one that gets a client through their everyday life.

And maintenance matters! Most enhancements need to be maintained every 2 to 3 weeks depending on your nail growth. Waiting 4+ weeks, losing nails, and picking at lifting usually means it’s time for a fresh set rather than a simple fill. Taking care of them between appointments helps keep your natural nails healthy too. 🤍

Now for the important stuff…

🍵 Go to drink: Iced brown sugar vanilla matcha latte

📺 Comfort shows: Death Note or Dexter

🎶 Music: Literally everything. She swears she has a favorite song in every genre.

✈️ Could talk about for hours: Traveling

❄️ Random fact: Winter is her favorite season

💄 Current unnecessary obsession: Makeup. Does she use all of it? No. Does her collection look like a mini Sephora? Absolutely. 😂

She’s also one of those people who can somehow MAKE anything. Woodworking, power tools, auto body restoration, crochet, knitting, intricate knots and weaves, friendship bracelets… if it involves working with her hands, she will probably figure it out.

Outside the salon she’s usually trying a new restaurant or traveling with her partner. When she actually manages to stay home, she loves video games, art projects, and taking an unreasonable amount of time doing her hair and makeup while watching YouTube. 😂

Three words that describe her?

✨ Unique
✨ Creative
✨ Determined

And one thing you might not expect from her is that she is actually VERY shy when meeting new people.

If she sees you outside the salon and doesn’t say hi, she promises she isn’t ignoring you. 😂 She is probably debating whether it’s actually you and terrified she’s about to wave at the wrong person.

She says it best: getting your nails done gives you confidence, but doing nails gives her confidence too. 🥹

When you leave Leilani’s table, she wants you to feel refreshed, relaxed, and like you got to step away from everyday life for a little while. Most of all, she wants you to leave loving your nails and knowing that when you come back, you’ll receive that same care and quality every single time.

“I’m so thankful for everyone who has chosen me to be part of their self care routine. I’m not perfect, but I promise every set is crafted with love and to the best of my abilities.” 🤍

We are so happy to have Leilani at Royals. 👑.
