Your Perfect Fit

The Custom-Fit Process

Luxury means it was made for you. Every VelvetClaw set is handcrafted to your exact nail measurements. Here's how it works.

01

Order Your Sizing Kit

Your journey starts with a $5 sizing kit delivered to your door. Inside you'll find a set of transparent measurement tabs and a simple instruction card.

The kit is designed to take the guesswork out of finding your size — no measuring tape, no rulers, no confusion.

02

Find Your Sizes

Press each transparent tab against your natural nail bed until you find the closest match for each finger. The tabs are numbered — just write down which number fits each nail.

Don't worry about being perfect. Our nail techs fine-tune every set by hand. If you're between sizes, go with the larger one — we can always file down, but we can't add material.

03

Send Your Measurements

Reply to your order confirmation email with your 10 sizing numbers (one per finger, left thumb to right pinky). That's it. We take it from here.

You can also include any preferences — length, shape adjustments, or notes about nail curvature.

04

We Handcraft Your Set

Your measurements go to our nail tech studio in Houston. Each nail is individually shaped, sculpted, and finished using salon-grade gel — the same material used in high-end nail salons.

Production takes 5-7 business days. We don't rush art.

05

Unbox, Apply, Own It

Your custom set arrives in a velvet storage case with a full prep kit and application guide. Apply in 15 minutes. Walk out like you just left a $200 salon appointment.

When you're done wearing them, store them in the case. With proper care, each set can be reapplied 3-5 times.

Measuring Tips

Get the best fit with these guidelines

Width Matters Most

The tab should sit flush against your nail bed from side to side. A little overlap in length is fine — a gap in width is not.

  • Hold the tab against your nail bed
  • Check both side edges for gaps
  • The tab should feel snug, not tight

Cuticle Alignment

Align the base of the tab with your cuticle line. Don't push past your cuticle — the nail should start where your natural nail begins.

  • Push cuticles back gently first
  • Place tab base at cuticle edge
  • The tab should cover your nail bed fully

Choose Your Shape

Each design in our collection comes in one of these three shapes

Almond

Tapered sides with a rounded peak. The most universally flattering shape. Elongates every finger.

Coffin

Tapered sides with a flat, squared-off tip. Bold and modern. A statement for those who want one.

Stiletto

Dramatically pointed tip. Sharp, fierce, unapologetic. Not for the faint of heart.

Common Questions

How long do VelvetClaw nails last?

With proper application, each set lasts 1-2 weeks of continuous wear. Use the adhesive tabs included in your kit for the strongest hold. Each set can be reapplied 3-5 times total.

Can I choose a different shape than what's shown?

Each design is crafted for a specific shape that complements the art. However, if you strongly prefer a different shape, mention it when you send your measurements and we'll see what we can do.

What if my sizing kit measurements feel off?

Our nail techs hand-adjust every set based on your numbers. If you're unsure, include a photo of your natural nails alongside your measurements. We'll make it work.

How do I remove them without damage?

Soak your fingertips in warm soapy water for 2-3 minutes. The adhesive softens and the nails slide off cleanly. Never peel or force them. Full removal instructions come in every kit.

Do you ship outside Houston?

Yes — we ship nationwide across the US. Sizing kits ship via USPS First Class (2-4 business days). Nail sets ship via USPS Priority (2-3 business days after production).
