Sample site built by our AI, not a customer site. Lumen Nail Bar is a made-up business; our AI wrote every section, from the headline to the 4-question FAQ. Lumen Nail Bar in Portland offers gel manicures, structured gel, pedicures and nail art. Hospital grade sterilization, single use files, online booking.
Someone choosing a nail salon wants the price of the service they have in mind, a reason to trust the hygiene, and a quick way to book a chair. The designs below handle those differently, from a busy six-chair bar to a one-chair art studio.
Three sample sites from our library, each a different kind of nail business (a walk-in friendly nail bar, an appointment-only art studio and a structured gel studio), plus two showcase builds made from a one-line prompt. For each we read the sample and noted the first button, how prices are shown and what a client still cannot do. Checked 27 September 2026. Every design here is from the We.Inc library and is labelled as a sample or template. None is a customer site, and no entry claims results.
Sample site built by our AI (made-up business). Open it
Task: A client comparing salons on price and cleanliness before booking.
Design choice: The headline is "Sterilized tools, single use files, every time" with "Book now" and "See services". The menu "Manicures, pedicures and extensions" prices every service: Classic manicure $38, Gel manicure $58, Structured gel manicure $78, Gel extensions from $95. The FAQ opens with "What is a dry manicure and why do you do it?".
Limitation: The close, "Reserve a chair", says to book online but the only button is a phone number. Link your real booking tool there.
Sample site built by our AI (made-up business). Open it
Task: A client who wants hand painted art and needs a quote first.
Design choice: "Nail art that holds up for four weeks" leads to "Book a set" and "See the gallery". Art is "From $6 per nail" and the menu note asks for a reference photo so the studio can quote before the visit. The FAQ spells out the $25 deposit and a 48 hour cancellation window.
Limitation: There is no gallery section behind "See the gallery", which is the one thing an art client most wants. There is also no classic or plain gel polish option.
Sample site built by our AI (made-up business). Open it
Task: A client whose gel keeps lifting and who wants to know why this studio costs more.
Design choice: "Nails that last three weeks without lifting" and a section called "Ninety minute appointments because prep takes time". The FAQ "Why does a manicure here cost more than a walk in salon?" answers the price question directly. Structured gel manicure is $68 and Builder gel overlay $85.
Limitation: No classic manicure or pedicure, so a client wanting a quick polish change will leave. Say so plainly if that is your choice.
Showcase build from a one-line prompt (made-up business). Open it
Task: A client who wants to see how full the day is before booking.
Design choice: "Nails that make a statement" with "Book your appointment" and "Read the price and time list". Beside the photo is a day planner showing booked slots (Nail art, Nail repair, Gel manicures) and the lunch break.
Limitation: The planner is a picture of a day, not a live calendar. Link your real booking tool so the times a client sees are true.
Showcase build from a one-line prompt (made-up business). Open it
Task: A gel and acrylic studio that wants booking to be the first thing a client sees.
Design choice: "Gel nails that last weeks", a "Book Now" button and "Read the price and time list", with the same day planner showing Acrylic Nails and Gel Manicures slots.
Limitation: The first screen shows no prices and nothing about hygiene. Bring a price or two and your sterilizing routine up near the top.

The Lumen Nail Bar sample explains that a dry manicure skips the soak, because soaking swells the nail and polish then lifts as it shrinks back. If you work this way, say why on your own page; if you do not, answer the question clients ask you most instead.
The sample says the damage comes from scraping gel off, not from the gel itself, and that it soaks off properly. Write your answer in your own words, with your own removal method and how long it takes.

The first thing a visitor reads is "Sterilized tools, single use files, every time", with "On Hawthorne since 2019" set above it as a small label. The line underneath does the explaining: "Metal implements are autoclaved between guests and files and buffers are single use. Manicures are done dry with an electric file for a cleaner cuticle and longer wear." Two buttons follow, "Book now" for people ready to act and "See services" for people who want to look around first. The layout is a framed hero, with the headline beside a boxed video panel, using looping stock footage instead of a static photo.
Directly below the hero, a strip of 4 short facts does the job most nail salon sites leave to vague words like "trusted" or "experienced": 7 yrs (on Hawthorne), Autoclave (sterilization on site), Single use (files and buffers) and 6 (licensed technicians). Each one is something a customer can check or hold the business to.
The "Manicures, pedicures and extensions" section lists 6 menu: Classic manicure ($38), Gel manicure ($58), Structured gel manicure ($78), Gel extensions (From $95), Spa pedicure ($65) and Nail art (From $5/nail). Prices run from $5 to $95, so a visitor can tell in seconds whether it fits the budget. A one-line note sets the terms: "Removal of existing product is included when you rebook with us." Each item gets a sentence of its own, for example "Shaping, dry cuticle work, hand massage and regular polish."
Under the heading "Six technicians, one very serious sterilizer", the about section says: "Lumen opened on Hawthorne in 2019 because the owner could not find a salon that did dry manicures and took sanitation seriously. We autoclave every metal implement, log the cycles, and throw away files and buffers after one guest." It then lists 3 concrete points instead of a paragraph of values: autoclave sterilization with logged cycles, available to view, single use files, buffers and pedicure liners and upgraded ventilation and pipeless pedicure chairs.
There are 3 reviews, each signed with a name and a context (Alina P., regular guest; Trina B., Buckman; Jess H., Sunnyside). None of them says "great service". They mention a specific moment, like "The room does not reek. That alone made me switch salons."
The FAQ covers 4 questions: "What is a dry manicure and why do you do it?", "Is gel bad for my nails?", "How long do gel extensions last?" and "Do you charge to remove product from another salon?". The answers are direct. The first one reads: "It means no soaking before the service. Soaking swells the nail plate, so polish applied afterward lifts as the nail shrinks back."
The page closes on "Reserve a chair". It sets expectations before anyone gets in touch: "Book online for the fastest options or call and we will find something that fits your week. Walk ins are taken when a chair is open." Hours are written out (Tue to Sat 9am to 7pm, Sun 10am to 5pm, Mon closed) and so is the area covered (Hawthorne, Belmont, Sunnyside, Buckman). The phone number also sits in the header on every scroll position, so nobody has to hunt for it.
The palette is three colors: a #f4f7f5 background, #16302c text and one accent (#0f766e) used only for buttons and labels. Headings are set in a serif face and buttons have 10px rounded corners. The menu has 6 items (Services, Pricing, About, Reviews, FAQ and Contact), all on one page, so it scrolls instead of making people click through.
