There's a cluster of nail places around Zhongshan MRT, exit 2, the little lanes behind the department stores. A few of them do the full gemstone thing with real Swarovski or those Korean art stones, usually runs 1500 to 2500 depending on how elaborate. I'd just walk around and peek in the windows, you can tell pretty fast which ones actually do it versus the ones that just glue on a couple of rhinestones.

honestly the best gemstone work I've seen is at a tiny spot on Lane 216, Section 4, Zhongxiao East Road, near the Zara. It's run by a woman who used to do bridal nails in Seoul, and she sources the stones herself, so you get stuff you won't find in the chain salons. Expect closer to 2000 to 3000 if you want the hand set stones, but the detail is worth it. Book ahead on weekends tho, she's usually slammed.

if u want a cheaper route try the basement of the ximending eisha area, the small stalls there do press on gemstone sets for like 600 to 900. quality is hit or miss but for a wedding guest look it works. i'd bring ur own design pic tho, communication can be rough if u don't speak mandarin
