Hi, I’m Kara! I’m a qualified Nail Technician and Artist with 4 years of experience. I work by appointment only out of my cute little studio upstairs at Blondies of Melbourne in Fitzroy North. I work with builder and hard gel products and I specialise in natural nail health and cute and custom hand-painted nail art. Come to me with your wildest nail ideas and we will make them happen! Electric Love Nails is a hygienic, safe and inclusive space for people of all genders and backgrounds - everyone deserves fun nails! All products used are Vegan and Cruelty Free. 

Electric Love Nails

Nehtové studio

I’ve been getting my nails done with Kara for something like four years now - before she even had a dedicated studio! Every time she truly delivers the most fantastic and personalised set of nails in such a cozy comfy environment. I can actually sit down and relax during my appointments because I know everything will turn out great and I’m in good hands. My nails have never been in better health! 

Kara is an angel, and everything is so hygienic. Like she’s a great artist and I always love my nails, but as someone whose biggest fear is a fungal nail infection, everything is so clean and I know I can trust her. She always knows how to execute the vision, even if the vision is vibes based. We have no choice but to Stan 

Such a wonderful salon, and Kara is such a wonderful human and nail tech. Absolutely loved the experience and ADORE my nails 🥰💛

This service is for clients whose last builder/hard gel service is still in good condition. No more than 3-4 weeks is recommended between rebalances. If you have left an extended period of time between rebalances you may require a removal and new application which will incur additional costs.

In this service I file down the structure of the existing product and reapply builder or hard gel, incorporating the new nail growth into the structure I create. This service includes a dry manicure and is finished with a gel polish of your choice and nourishing cuticle oil.
