why media city loves at‑home mani‑pedi
Media City hosts a concentration of media agencies, production houses and start‑ups, many of which operate on tight deadlines and limited break times. Employees frequently look for quick, reliable grooming services that can be delivered to co‑working spaces near Dubai Internet City or directly to residential studios, without the need to travel to a salon across town.
tamam solves this by aggregating several licensed nail technicians, each with verified trade licenses and insurance. The app displays transparent AED 80–300 ranges, lets you filter by vendor rating, and confirms the booking instantly. If a provider cancels, a rebook guarantee ensures you’re not left waiting.
A typical session lasts 45 to 90 minutes and includes nail shaping, cuticle care, a soothing hand and foot massage, polish application, and clean‑up. Technicians bring all tools and a selection of classic or trendy colours, so you can finish work with polished confidence.

about media city
Media City is a dedicated free‑zone enclave adjacent to Dubai Internet City, home to studios, advertising agencies, and multinational media firms. Landmark buildings include the MBC Group headquarters, the Dubai Media City Metro station, and the iconic Media Tower. The area blends high‑rise office blocks with low‑rise residential lofts, and its walkable streets host cafés, coworking hubs, and art galleries, making it a vibrant, 24‑hour work‑life environment.
Because many professionals work flexible hours, scheduling a manicure and pedicure during a lunch break or after a shoot is common. The compact layout means technicians can reach most offices within minutes, but traffic peaks around 9 am and 6 pm, so booking slightly before or after these windows reduces wait times.
pricing for at‑home manicure and pedicure
The final price depends on the technician’s experience level, the specific colour palette chosen, and any urgent‑time requests. AED 80–300 reflects the range from entry‑level providers to premium specialists operating in Media City’s commercial zone.
