Artful Nail Boutique

Before you sit down for your next manicure or pedicure, there are two important things you should know about your nail salon: Is it properly licensed, and are they following appropriate sanitation practices?

At Artful Nail Boutique, I hold a Michigan nail salon establishment license as well as my professional nail technician license. That means my salon operates under state licensing requirements, including sanitation standards and inspections. When choosing a nail salon, don't be afraid to ask about licensing, how tools are cleaned and disinfected, and who will be performing your services. This is especially important for pedicures, where proper cleaning and sanitation procedures matter. Apprentices may also be working in salons under specific state requirements, so it's always okay to ask about someone's credentials.

I'm Amanda, and I believe getting your nails done should be a relaxing experience where you feel comfortable asking questions. If you're looking for a more personal nail salon experience where professionalism, cleanliness, and attention to detail matter, I'd love to welcome you to Artful Nail Boutique.

Your nail appointment should be something you look forward to, not something you feel nervous about. You should never have to apologize for how your nails look or feel like you need to be anyone other than yourself.

At Artful Nail Boutique, I want you to feel beautiful, confident, and completely comfortable from the moment you sit down. This is a judgment-free space where we can talk, laugh, share stories, and get to know each other while creating nails that reflect your personality. Whether you love something simple or want to express yourself with creative nail art, your appointment is about so much more than the finished result. It's about enjoying the experience, too.

If you've been putting off getting your nails done because you're nervous about trying somewhere new, I'd love to welcome you into my boutique. Come exactly as you are, enjoy some one-on-one time, and leave with beautiful nails and a little extra confidence.

There’s a reason it’s called Artful Nail Boutique, and once you know Amanda, the name makes a whole lot more sense.

Amanda has always loved drawing, art, flowers, and especially sunflowers. When it came time to name her one-person nail salon, she wanted the name to reflect both her creative side and the small, personal atmosphere she was building. “Artful” represents her love of creativity, “Boutique” reflects the intimate salon experience, and starting with an “A” was a little nod to Amanda herself.

If you’ve been looking for something more personal than a busy nail salon, don’t keep putting off your next appointment. Come meet Amanda and experience the creativity and one-on-one attention behind Artful Nail Boutique.

Stop apologizing. Your nails aren't too short. You didn't wait too long. And you don't have to explain yourself when you sit down in my chair.

At Artful Nail Boutique, I want your appointment to feel like time you actually look forward to. We can talk about whatever you want, laugh, catch up, or simply enjoy the appointment. It's a comfortable, judgment-free nail boutique where you can be yourself while we create nails that feel like you.

And ladies, you don't need someone else to buy your nails or give you permission to treat yourself. You just need Amanda to do them. Come in, get comfortable, and let's make your next nail appointment a good one.

Wondering what you can actually book with me at Artful Nail Boutique?

I offer structured gel manicures, regular gel manicures, and pedicures with your choice of gel or regular polish.

But for me, it’s about more than picking a service from a list.

I want your appointment to feel personal. We can talk about what you want, what works best for your nails, and what you’re hoping to walk out with.
And while we’re at it, we can relax, laugh, catch up, spill a little tea, or just enjoy some quiet time if that’s what you need that day.

Beautiful nails are the reason you book the appointment. I want the experience to be part of the reason you come back.

Truth or dare?

I dare you to bring me a nail set I can’t do.

I’ve had clients bring me plenty of creative, detailed, and completely outside-the-box ideas, and I haven’t been stumped yet. But maybe you’re the one who finally has the design that puts me to the test.

At Artful Nail Boutique, I specialize in custom nail art and creating sets that feel like you. Bring me your inspiration photo, a color combination, a theme, or even a completely random idea, and we’ll figure out how to turn it into something you’ll love wearing.

And this isn’t a place where you need to worry about whether your idea is too bold, too different, or too much. Creativity is kind of the point.

So here’s your challenge: find the nail design you think I can’t do and bring it to your next appointment.

Think you can stump me? I dare you to try.

Hi, I’m Amanda Walsh, the owner of Artful Nail Boutique. I believe getting your nails done should be something you look forward to from the moment you walk in.

I specialize in structured gel manicures, with attention to the prep, shape, color, and details that bring your ideas together. Just as much care goes into the atmosphere here. I want you to feel welcome, comfortable, and free to have a little fun while we create nails that feel like you.

Whether you already have a design in mind or want to explore colors together, I’d love to see you at Artful Nail Boutique. Pick your hue, make it you.

We love color at Artful Nail Boutique. Bright shades, unexpected combinations, detailed patterns, and completely new nail designs give us an opportunity to challenge our creativity with every appointment.

The artistic process begins with properly preparing each nail through careful shaping, filing, and cuticle work. Once that foundation is ready, we can explore bold colors, personalized artwork, seasonal inspiration, and designs created specifically for you. The more creative the idea, the more excited we are to bring it to life.

Bring us a color palette you love, an inspiration photo, or an idea you have never tried before. Together, we can create a custom manicure that feels expressive, polished, and completely personal.
