There are few things we love more in life than our bi-weekly jaunts to the nail salon. We step through the doors perhaps tired or stressed or frazzled by our day-to-day, and we leave an hour or two later feeling pampered and pretty and poised. We love front tables littered with fashion mags, the sweet smell of lavender mixed with polish wafting through the air, and fantastically frivolous chit-chat with estheticians and fellow manicure mavens. Here are three 100% girly, 100% fabulous mani/pedi spots near you!
The Painted Nail
Shabby chic meets Hollywood Glam at Katie Cazorla’s The Painted Nail. Instead of a rush-in-and-rush-out nail care experience, why not enjoy a glass of champagne and stay for a while? In addition to standard nail salon services (with darling, dessert inspired names like Sugar Mama and Ice Cream Sundae) bring in your favorite photo to have printed on your freshly prettied nails! Or bring the kids (12 and under) for a Sugar Baby nail treatment, complete with sparkling fairy dust! For a complete list of services including facials, eyelash extensions, and in true L.A. form, The Painted Nail’s VIP cabana, hit up thepaintednail.com!
Chi Spa and Nail Bar
To help balance your “CHI” energy, Chi Spa and Nail Bar in Beverly Hills uses only 100% natural and organic products that harness the life-giving energy of plants and the sea. Owner, Fawn Ton’s extensive nail menu includes Green Tea Seed Oil massage, Himalayan Pink Salt exfoliation and Jade and Ginseng Sugar Scrub to leave your mitts and tootsies soft, supple, and glowing! To take your treatment above and beyond, add a reflexology treatment to your manicure or pedicure! Finally, want to have a pamper party for you and the girls? Book an after-hours pedi-party to pretty up your day!! Find out how at chi-nailbar.com!
