How Much Do Nails Cost in Accra and Tema? A 2026 Price Guide

Cover image: LOVE & LUX ARTISTRY, from its uploaded Self Vibe profile. There is no single price for “getting your nails done” in Accra or Tema. A regular manicure, a colour-only service, a full acrylic extension and a detailed birthday set are different appointments. Length, removal, art and whether you are booking hands or feet can change the total.
The examples below are actual menu amounts recorded on Self Vibe on 10 October 2026. They are not citywide averages or guaranteed quotes. All amounts are in Ghana cedis (GHS); check the current service and checkout for updated prices, fees and payment requirements.

A GHS 70 stick-on service and a GHS 180 full extension service should not be treated as the same product. Compare what is included before comparing the number alone.
What can change your final nail quote?
Length and the base service
Some partners price short, medium and long separately. Love & Lux Artistry, for example, lists Acrylic Short at GHS 150, Acrylic Medium at GHS 200 and Acrylic Long at GHS 400. Nailstory lists separate short through extra-long extension entries. Choose the length you actually want rather than booking short and deciding on long after arrival.
Art and finishing details
Ask whether French tips, several colours, decorative details or a reference design are included. KB Beauty Nest lists Nail Intricate Design separately at GHS 40. That is an example of a menu distinction, not a rule that every studio charges the same extra or includes the same amount of artwork.
Removing or maintaining an existing set
If you already have nails on, explain what they are and whether you want removal, an infill or a new set. KB Beauty Nest lists Acrylic Removal and Acrylic Extensions Infill as separate services. A new-set price does not establish what removal will cost at another partner.
Hands, toes and pedicures
A toe-polish or extension service is not automatically a pedicure. Love & Lux Artistry lists toe options separately from its ladies’ and gents’ pedicures. At Nailedbylola, Female Pedicure is listed at GHS 130 and Male Pedicure at GHS 150. Check the exact appointment name and scope.
Menu price versus checkout total
Read the final booking summary before you pay. A deposit is a payment towards the appointment, not necessarily the full price. Any processing or booking charges displayed at checkout should be considered separately from the service examples in this article. Different partners can have different payment requirements; do not assume every listing accepts the same arrangement.
A better way to compare
Use the same request when comparing studios: desired length, base service, finish, art and removal needs. Ask, “What service should I book for this look, and what will be added to the listed price?” That is more useful than asking only, “How much are nails?” Start with Nailedbylola, The Girly Glam Studio or Love & Lux Artistry, then use the directory below to compare the wider partner selection.
