Meet Your Nail Tech

Kittyclawzbymel artist portrait

Hi, I’m Mel! I’m a licensed nail technician in Downey, CA, and I specialize in nail art — from clean, minimal sets to full intricate 3D custom designs. Whether you’re coming in for a classic Gel-X set, acrylics, builder gel to grow out your natural nails, a Russian manicure, or fully custom hand-sculpted art, every set gets my full attention. My books are open for everyone. Can’t wait to create with you! 💅
