manicures on board

hi everyone:

 

does anyone know the price of an acrylic fill? we are going on a ten day cruise to alaska on the regal and would like to have my nails done during the cruise.

 

thanks for all your help.

If memory serves me right, it was around $50 on the Star Princess when we were sailing on a 25 day cruise. Other ships I have had a hard time getting mine done as they didn't have anyone who could do acrylics onboard (honestly). I would get them done before you leave for the cruise, just to be safe.

thanks toto:

 

i figured it would be expensive. i only pay $18 here so i think i will get them done before i leave.

 

thanks again

I'd definitely have them done before leaving ... but also bring a bottle of the polish you're wearing. I never chip a nail at home but I'm not happy unless a chip one by the time I get on ship!:mad:

Second that thought! I went for a repolish (I'd had a manicure on Sat. before leaving but by Thursday my nails were starting to chip) and it was $22 for a French on short natural nails. For a repolish. She didn't even put moisturizer on my hands -- in my regular salon, a repolish is less than $10 (forget exactly how much) and it gets you a quick filing, a brief hand and wrist massage with lotion, and a quick cuticle check -- like a mini-mani, you could say.
