Meet Clau, the artist behind BeautyFusionClau

One artist. One client. One appointment.

There is no rotation here. The person who answers your first WhatsApp message is the person who plans your design, quotes it, and sits across from you for the whole appointment.

That is the whole model, and it is why the calendar is deliberately small. A full custom set takes as long as it takes — detailed design work does not fit into a 45-minute slot without showing. If you have ever left a salon holding an approximation of the photo you brought in, that gap is exactly what this practice exists to close.

Why the sunflower

The sunflower is the brand's symbol: it is in the logo, and it is the pendant Clau wears in the portrait above. A sunflower turns toward the light; that is the whole idea behind the name. The designs themselves start from you — your style, your inspiration or a reference photo — and are adapted to your nails.

How a set with Clau actually works

• You message on WhatsApp first. Send reference photos, the shape and length you want, and the date you need it for.
• You get a real quote before you book. Not a range, not a "from" price — an exact number for your set. Nothing on this site carries a price list because no two sets cost the same. The reasoning is written out in the cost guide.
• The design is settled before you arrive. You do not spend the first twenty minutes of your appointment explaining yourself.
• You sit down for two to three hours. One client at a time, unrushed, and you leave with the set you actually pictured.

What she is known for

• Manicures and nail systems — gel manicure, builder gel, dip powder, rubber base, soft gel and polygel, plus regular manicures and colour changes with gel or regular polish
• Acrylic full sets and refills — short or long, in the shape you choose
• Custom nail designs — colours, effects, finishes and decorative elements, adapted to your style, inspiration or reference
• Pedicures — gel, regular, spa and luxury, plus colour changes, one client at a time

Every service takes care of nail prep, product application, structure, shape and final finish, for a clean, long-lasting, professional result. Every photo in the gallery is her own work.

Written by the artist, not by a content team

The guides on this site come out of questions clients ask mid-appointment: why a set lifted early, which shape survives a keyboard, what a quote is actually made of. Clau writes them. Where a guide makes a claim about nail or skin health, it cites dermatology and FDA sources instead of salon folklore, because getting that wrong costs you a nail plate.

She is a nail artist, not a medical professional. For a nail or skin condition, see a dermatologist.

English and Spanish, same artist

Sarasota is bilingual and so is this practice. Every page on this site has a Spanish twin, and WhatsApp works in either language — with Clau directly, not through a front desk. If describing exactly what you want is easier in Spanish, do it in Spanish: esta página en español.

Where to find her

Clau works at Yaya Nails, 1155 N Washington Blvd, Sarasota, FL 34236, in the Rosemary District just north of downtown. Appointments run Monday through Saturday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Walk-ins are not accepted — the schedule is built around one client at a time, so a slot has to be confirmed first.
