About the Salon

Nail Salon Tonic is an English-fluent private studio by nail artist Emily K M, currently located in Ebisu, Tokyo. The salon specializes in hand-drawn Japanese gel art. Nail Salon Tonic values consistency in nail care and most of Emily's current clients are monthly regulars.

After working in the beauty and nail industries in New York, Vancouver, and Tokyo, Emily opened her private studio in Tokyo to broaden the accessibility of Japanese nail art to residents and visitors of various backgrounds. Nail Salon Tonic is an inclusive studio where clients can discuss their needs without a language barrier and engage in in-depth nail consultations. 

Emily is an eight-times certified and licensed nail artist certified by the Japanese Nail Association, New York State Nail Specialty Department, and a Canadian Cosmetology Diploma.

Her portfolio also includes works for KOKOIST, New York Fashion Week, and designers such as Laquan Smith.
