Everything is possible: a solid, basic color, brand logos, not to mention cartoon characters. For the latter, the lounge has examples ranging from Arale Evangelion characters through to Mickey Mouse. Sketches and original drawings are also accepted. For those in a hurry, or for children, it offers false nails, also with images of imaginary heroes.
