Healthy Nails First
We pick products and techniques that protect the nail bed. Beauty without damage isn't a slogan — it's a refusal to cut corners.
ABOUT
THE STUDIO
A nail, lash and brow studio in the West Village. Quiet rooms, clean tools, treatments built around the nail bed — not around the appointment slot.
OUR STORY
We opened to fix what
nail salons broke.
Mira started Deeves after a decade of working in studios that optimized for throughput. Six appointments stacked back-to-back, gel cured too fast, cuticles cut to save time. The work suffered. The nails did too.
We built the studio around the opposite premise: one chair per room, real prep time, every service paced for the nail — not the calendar. Five years in, that's still the entire idea.

What we
stand on.
Three principles we hire for, train on, and refuse to dilute. If anything we do contradicts them, we cut it.
Tools, Not Trends
We invest in the right tools and the right training. Trends rotate; craft compounds. Our team trains four times a year.
Quiet Studio
Single-chair rooms, no overbooking, no rushed sets. You came for a treatment, not a transaction.
