Find your joy, take the ride. Equal parts style and service, without skimping on the details
There’s a new kid on the block. Meet Joyride, Vancouver’s game-changing modern nail studio located in the heart of Kitsilano at 1758 West 4th Avenue. With an innovative menu of seven signature nail treatments, 350+ polish colours, and a private label line of all-natural, plant-based body products, Joyride offers an experience that’s equal parts style and service, without skimping on the details.
“I’ve been getting my nails done every other week as long as I can remember, and the experience often left something to be desired,” explained Claire Mandell, owner of Joyride. “A modern nail studio shouldn’t be hard to find. Joyride makes it easy to get your nails done, in a fun and stylish environment, complete with your choice of handcrafted coffee or cold-pressed juice.”
Starting at just $20 a pop, the Joyride experience starts with a questionnaire to discover each and every client’s favourite polish colour, beverage choice, and preferred magazine.
Every service comes with a choice of hard-to-find polish brands and colours including OPI, Essie, Deborah Lippman, JINsoon, and Ella + Mila, with 3 Free and 5 Free options available. From The Joyride (nail shaping, cuticle care, exfoliation, and massage), to The Pixie (a classic service for shiny, natural-looking nails), to The Major Joyride (added indulgences, including extra callus removal, a paraffin wax treatment and extended massage), each treatment is delivered by a team that’s talented, trained and sharp as a tack.
“Our nail technicians are certified, experienced, and seriously talented,” added Mandell. “From shellac or gel polish to trendy nail art, they are armed and ready to make your Pinterest-worthy nail dreams come true!”
The Joyride studio captures the essence of Kitsilano with a twist of modern California. From the wall-mounted surfboard to the leather, lavender-hued seats and authentic Moroccan poufs, the space offers a joyful escape from the everyday. Joyride is committed to providing a clean, healthy environment, with all-natural (almost) everything, including non-harmful cleaning products, an air purification system and disposable files and buffers.
“My goal was to make the Joyride studio experience a cut above from start to finish,” said Mandell. “From the moment you choose your signature service, to reading magazines on your personal iPad, to when you walk out the door with your perfectly polished manicure, green juice in hand, it’s a ride you’ll want to take again and again.”
