Nails Canteras: Where Maja Works Her Magic in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

If you’ve been walking around Las Palmas de Gran Canaria wondering where everyone is getting those flawless nails, let me give you the inside scoop: it’s probably Maja at Nails Canteras. She’s a certified nail technician with years of experience, a love for design, and a knack for making every set feel like a little work of art. Originally trained in Ireland at one of the country’s top beauty boutiques, she brings an international touch to her work here on the island, blending professionalism with creativity in a way that makes you feel instantly in good hands.

💅 Certified and Creative

Maja isn’t just highly skilled, she’s also deeply qualified. With multiple international diplomas in nail technology and a career that spans different countries, she knows how to combine precision and artistry. Whether you’re in the mood for a simple, elegant manicure or something bold with colour and detail, she approaches every set with the same care and dedication. What makes the difference is her ability to listen to what you want and then create nails that not only match your style but last far longer than you might expect.

🌸 Products That Raise the Standard

She works exclusively with EMI products, which are well known in Europe for being vegan, cruelty-free, hypoallergenic and long-lasting. That means your nails stay glossy and strong for weeks without chipping or fading, and the colour options are endless. From understated nudes to bold shades with eye-catching effects, there’s something for every mood and occasion. It’s a level of quality you can see and feel straight away, and it’s one of the reasons people keep coming back.

📍 A Convenient Location

You’ll find Nails Canteras in the area of Centro Comercial Las Arenas, a location that couldn’t be more convenient if you’re already out shopping, grabbing a coffee, or enjoying a stroll along Las Canteras beach. It’s central, easy to reach, and makes fitting in a bit of self-care a breeze.

🌟 Loved by the Community (and Me!)

Plenty of our community members have already had their nails done by Maja, and the feedback is always glowing. She also happens to be my own nail technician, so I can personally confirm that her attention to detail is outstanding. Sitting down with her is both relaxing and fun, and I always leave feeling just a little more put together. The fact that she speaks fluent English also makes the whole process effortless — you can explain exactly what you want without hesitation, and she’ll bring it to life.

📲 Where to Find Inspiration

If you’re like me, you probably scroll Pinterest for nail ideas, but honestly, Maja’s Instagram has become my go-to. It’s packed with inspiration, from delicate minimalist sets to bold, playful designs, and it’s a great way to decide what style to try next. Once you’ve found your favourite look, booking is just as simple — you pick a time through her online calendar, confirm, and you’re ready to go.

✨ Final Touch

If you’re looking for nails that actually last, colours that pop, and designs that stand out, Nails Canteras is where you’ll want to go. Maja’s mix of professional training, creative flair, and premium products has made her one of the best in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria — and the reason I wouldn’t dream of going anywhere else.

  • A least half of the appeal of Las Palmas for remote workers and digital nomads is rooted in this community. It’s the best I’ve seen so far in terms of how well it is organised, structured and nurtured. It offers excellent opportunities to meet new people and explore the island.
