Tee (DOT) Nail Bar is a home-based nail salon in Sembawang, North Singapore, run by Stephanie since 2018. Every appointment is strictly 1-on-1 — no shared slots, no rushing — with clients getting Stephanie's full attention for the whole session in a cosy home studio setting rather than a commercial salon environment.
Services span classic gel manicures and pedicures, full-tip extensions, and a wide range of nail art from simple cat-eye and chrome finishes through to intricate hand-drawn designs and 3D sculpture art. The salon's signature offering is its Omakase Nails service, where clients simply share a budget and trust Stephanie to design something completely unique — no inspiration photos needed, and no design is ever repeated. In 2025, Stephanie also launched a Studio arm offering press-on nails and masterclasses.
Booking is strictly by appointment, with no walk-ins accepted, and a deposit is required to confirm a slot. Because sessions are 1-on-1, clients are asked to come alone rather than bring a friend along; those wanting to book together are asked to make two separate appointments. The studio is located at EastBrook @ Canberra in Sembawang, with the exact unit number shared only after a booking is confirmed.
Tee (DOT) Nail Bar started in 2018 out of what its founder, Stephanie, describes as a genuine love for nail art and a belief that great nails shouldn't be rushed or cookie-cutter. What began as a home-based passion project has since grown into a cosy studio serving hundreds of clients in Sembawang, North Singapore, with a 2025 expansion into a Studio arm offering press-on nails and masterclasses.
The defining feature of Tee (DOT) Nail Bar is its 1-on-1 format — every appointment is exclusively yours, with no shared slots and no rushing. Stephanie's full attention stays with one client for the entire session, a deliberate departure from the pace of a typical commercial salon. Because of this format, clients are asked to come alone rather than bring a friend; those wanting to book together are asked to make two separate appointments.
Tee (DOT) Nail Bar prices everything upfront in SGD, with the promise that 'what you see is what you pay.' The base services are a Classic Gel Manicure ($50, including cuticle care and up to 2 colors with gel overlay) and Classic Extensions ($70, full tip extensions for added length and shape), alongside Classic Gel Pedicure options in Dry ($50) or Full ($60, with a foot soak and scrub) versions.
Nail art is available as a full set — Cat-Eye ($8), Glitter Ombre ($10), Color Ombre ($12), Chrome ($15), or French ($30) — or à la carte per nail, spanning simple stickers and charms (from $1) up through metallic chrome detailing (from $2), marble design (from $5), 3D sculpture art (from $8), character drawing (from $10), and intricate drawing (from $15). For anything outside these standard styles, clients are invited to send inspiration photos via WhatsApp for a direct quote — no surprises at checkout.
Removals are limited to nails originally done at Tee (DOT) Nail Bar (acrylic removals aren't offered), priced from $5 for a plain gel removal up to $25 for extensions removal with embellishments, with a $10 surcharge if removal is booked as a standalone service.
For clients happy to hand over full creative control, Tee (DOT) Nail Bar's signature Omakase Nails service starts at $68 for a base tier or $88 for a premium tier (extensions add $30), both including a Classic Gel Manicure and overlay. Clients simply share a budget, and Stephanie designs something completely unique — no inspiration photos required, and no design repeated across clients, making it a popular choice for events, celebrations, or anyone wanting something truly one-of-a-kind.
Tee (DOT) Nail Bar operates strictly by appointment — walk-ins aren't accepted — with a deposit required to confirm a booking. Weekday hours run 11am to 7pm (last appointment), and weekend hours run 11am to 5pm (last appointment), with slot availability regularly updated on Instagram. Festive-season bookings (like Chinese New Year or Christmas) run through a separate Google Form rather than the standard online booking system.
The studio is located at 104A Canberra Street, Singapore 751104 (EastBrook @ Canberra), with the exact unit number shared only once a booking is confirmed — a reflection of its genuinely home-based, private setup. Clients can reach the studio via WhatsApp, or follow along on Instagram, Facebook and TikTok for the latest work and available slots.
