NAIL ARTIST-IN-CHIEF
Meet Ella Ng
My name is Ella Ng and I am a nail artist with a passion for creating nail art that inspires you to feel your best.
When I left Vietnam for the United States, it took a huge leap of faith. The name LEAPiA (pronounced li-pi-uh) is rooted in that journey.
I opened LEAPiA in 2019 with a dream of creating a welcoming space where we can have fun creating a design you love.
I also want to create a positive work environment for my employees and pay them a fair and living wage that allows them to thrive in NYC.
While the pandemic created challenges for my business, I was able to stay afloat and reopen the salon safely.
My background includes photo shoot work with well-known brands and designers, and working at various salons, including Paintbox.
I currently have a waitlilst for new clients. Email me if you’re interested in working with me, or better yet, book with my associate, Dakota, for immediate availability!
I look forward to welcoming you soon.
ASSOCIATE NAIL ARTIST
Meet Dakota
Hey! My name is Dakota and I’ve been a nail artist since 2015.
I was born in Queens and raised on Long Island. I started doing my own nails at age 9 and have been in love with nail care since then.
Nail art is a wearable accessory and a form of self-expression.
I want to give all my clients unique nails and a memorable manicuring experience with expert care for their nail’s health.
I can’t wait to meet and provide you with a design you’ll love!
