About The Bloom Nail Spa

The Bloom Nail Spa offers professional nail care in a clean, comfortable setting, with a menu that runs from classic manicures to genuinely indulgent spa pedicures. Services include manicures, pedicures, acrylic nails, dip powder, gel polish, nail art and waxing, with massage add-ons for guests who want to stretch an appointment into proper downtime.

Pedicures are the heart of the menu. The Deluxe Collagen Pedicure pairs full nail care with a salt soak, sugar scrub, masque and lotion, while other versions add hot stone massage or step up to the fizzing Volcano detox soak, the 80-minute Honey & Milk Rose milk bath, or the 90-minute 24k Gold Anti-Aging treatment featuring gold powder, Pink Himalayan salt and steam therapy. The longer services include built-in massage time.

On the nails side, guests can choose acrylic full sets and fill-ins, pink and white in classic or ombre finishes, gel powder colour, builder gel and Gel-X tip extensions, plus dipping powder in colour, ombre and pink-and-white. Finishing touches include French tips, chrome, cat eye effect and custom hand-painted design.

The salon keeps its promise simple: quality work, fair prices and a relaxing atmosphere. Every tool is properly sanitized, the team listens to what you want, and products are chosen to last — clients come back, in the salon's own words, for the consistent work and good service in a calm space.

The Bloom Nail Spa: Volcano Pedicures, Gel-X and Custom Nail Art in Richmond, Invercargill

Some salons treat a pedicure as quick maintenance between appointments. The Bloom Nail Spa treats it as the reason you booked. The salon offers professional nail care in a clean and comfortable setting, and its service menu reads more like a spa treatment card than a price list — salt soaks, hot stones, paraffin wax, steam therapy, candle massages and pure 24k gold powder all make appearances.

Pedicures That Go All In

The entry point is the Deluxe Collagen Pedicure: filing, shaping, callus treatment, cuticle trim, hot towel and polish, plus a deluxe treatment of salt soak, sugar scrub, masque and lotion. The Hot Stone Deluxe Collagen version swaps in a hot stone massage for deeper relaxation. Both are available with regular or gel polish.

The menu then climbs. The Volcano Pedicure, a 60-minute service, is built around a warm detox crystal soak with a bubbling effect, followed by a collagen mask, a long massage, paraffin wax, hot towels and collagen lotion — with a 10-minute massage included for refreshed feet. The Hot Stone Volcano layers a hot stone massage and a steam machine onto the same detox ritual.

The two longest treatments are the headliners. The Honey & Milk Rose Pedicure runs 80 minutes: dry, cracked feet are revived in a warm milk bath infused with golden honey and rose petals, then treated to paraffin wax and a candle massage, with a 20-minute massage included. The 24k Gold Anti-Aging Pedicure is the 90-minute flagship, combining pure 24k gold powder and Pink Himalayan salt to rejuvenate and brighten skin with a gold-infused mask, vitamin C moisturizer, hyaluronic acid, argan oil, a 24k gold serum, steam therapy, paraffin wax and a candle massage — closed out with a 30-minute massage.

Nails, From Classic to Custom

Manicures come in Classic and Gel styles, covering cutting, shaping and cuticle care, with a hand massage folded into the gel version. Guests after length or structure have a full enhancements menu to choose from: acrylic nails as a full set or fill-in, acrylic finished with gel or Shellac polish, classic pink and white — including an ombre fade — gel powder colour, builder gel and Gel-X soft gel tip extensions.

Dipping powder has its own section, with colour, ombre and pink-and-white options, and fake nails can be added under dip powder for extra length. Straight gel or Shellac polish is offered on both hands and feet.

Finishing touches keep every set personal: French tips, chrome, a cat eye effect, a shiny buff or hand-painted design work. Massage lovers can bolt a hot stone massage, extra paraffin wax, ten or twenty more minutes of foot massage, or a 15- or 30-minute shoulder massage onto nearly any appointment — there is even an acrylic add-on for the two big toes.

How a Visit Feels

The salon's philosophy, in its own words, is simple: quality work, fair prices and a relaxing atmosphere. Every tool is properly sanitized, the team listens to what you want, and products are chosen because they actually last. Clients return, the salon says, for the consistency — no surprises, no shortcuts, just good service in a calm space.

That philosophy also makes the menu easy to navigate by the time you have. Ten spare minutes suits a nail shape or a shiny buff; half an hour covers a polish change or a gel refresh; a free afternoon can hold the full 90-minute gold treatment, ideally with the salon's gallery browsed beforehand for design, chrome or cat eye inspiration. Waxing is offered alongside nail services for guests combining appointments, and bookings can be made online in advance.

However long the appointment, the goal stays the same: nails you're genuinely happy with, work that holds up between visits, and a quiet hour where the pace slows down. For anyone looking to upgrade a routine manicure into something closer to a spa day, the pedicure menu alone makes the trip worthwhile.
