Our approach
Healthy nails come first
A set can only be as good as the nail under it. That's why every appointment starts with a close look at your own nails.
It's also why The Nail Edition doesn't offer acrylic, hard gel or dip. We work with Gel-X and soft gels that come off with an acetone soak, and we never touch live tissue. Every manicure ends with a hand wash.
Nails don't need a break to breathe. They need gentle prep, gentle removal and attention at every visit. Have more questions? Read the FAQ.

“If you can think it up and I have the supplies to do it, I can do it,” says Kelly. Checkerboard and cherries, Snoopy, Barbie, the Packers, little flowers on toes.

Meet the founder
Kelly Wondra
Founder and Lead Nail Tech
Kelly's love of nails started with her own. As a busy mom, her standing nail appointment was the one thing she did for herself, no matter how crazy life got. A fresh set made her feel polished and put together, and she wanted guests to feel the same. She brought Gel-X to Fond du Lac first and still teaches guests how their set works. She studied art in college, and she brings that artist's eye to every hand-painted set.
“There's nothing better than seeing the stress melt away from someone.”
Some guests bring their work and answer emails. Others relax and close their eyes, and some like to chat. All are welcome.
The Nail Edition is located inside Beauty Republic in Fond du Lac.
