Hi, I am working on my personal website which also has dedicated pages to substitute some online services such as Novoresume, Namedrop, and Linktree. The reason is to reduce the workload and cost to keep seperate services. It will also drive some traffic to my website.
But I found that my default navigation which I love and think accessible for most users. But I think they don’t look and feel great on some pages. Check: https://www.narada.ca/
But I am using a different navigation for these pages because sometimes I would give direct links to these pages and I want to highlight the content above my other pages and navigation bar.
1. Namedrop: https://www.narada.ca/hear/
2. Novoresume: https://www.narada.ca/about-me/resume/#top
3. Linktree: https://www.narada.ca/links/
I am curious to hear web designers and UX designers options on using different navigation bars for some cases. In my case, is it acceptable?
Alternatively, I can change side navigation to top and then increase column width.

First and foremost, pay attention to your mobile users.
Im on my phone which has a high resolution and still had to side-scroll.
That will kill traffic…
Otherwise, I do think you have the right idea with your nav.
As far as my knowledge, it’s customary to have the same navigation bar throughout, if you have separate menu’s you want on individual pages, which are above and beyond the primary navigation, you could create a secondary menu and put that on the side of the page, or as a separate menu on the page.
