Hey there — I’m Carissa, the hands, heart, and soul behind Blushing Rose Nails & Esthetics. I graduated with honors from the Esthetician program at Georgian College in 2017, started working for myself in 2018, and officially opened Blushing Rose in 2019. What started as a dream to create beautiful nails has grown into a place where creativity meets connection — a cozy, welcoming space built on trust, good conversation, and a shared love of self-expression.

I specialize in hard gel and have an ever-growing passion for realism nail art — bringing tiny, detailed stories to life, one brushstroke at a time. For me, nails are more than just decoration — they’re a language of self-expression, confidence, and care. Every set carries intention and a little piece of who you are.

Outside the salon, I’m most myself when I’m with my Great Pyrenees, Cilla, working out, cooking, or getting lost in a good book. My favorite artists are Elvis Presley and Yungblud — a blend of timeless soul and fearless rebellion 🎸✨

But above all, I’m not just an Esthetician— I’m someone who genuinely cares about the people who sit in my chair. Each appointment is more than a service; it’s an exchange of energy, a safe space to breathe, laugh, vent, or simply be.

I believe touch carries intention, art holds emotion, and connection heals. When you walk into my studio, you’re not just another appointment — you’re a whole story, and I’m here to listen.

Because this isn’t just a nail studio.
It’s a place Where Hands Are Heard. 💫
