We had an amazing experience at Luna Blues Nailstry, and thanks to their professional manicurists, we can confidently rock our attention-grabbing nails!

3. 21 Beauty

We decided to give 21 Beauty, a well-known nail salon in Ipoh, a try because they are up for the challenge of designing various nail art styles. The nail technician who did our nails was easy to talk to and willingly shared some nail care tips, which made us feel more comfortable. We appreciated how evenly they applied the gel nail polish. This is a plus point because unevenness is a pet peeve of ours when we get our nails done. If you don’t have any colour or design in mind, worry not! They will recommend colours and designs suitable for your skin tone, nail shape, and size.

We had a minor nail emergency while visiting Ipoh, so we contacted SL Nails Spa to get it fixed. They accept walk-in customers, but it’s advisable to book an appointment to avoid inconvenience. What we appreciate about this nail salon is its spaciousness. The seating arrangements comfortably spread out, allowing us to chat with the manicurist without feeling cramped. We also discovered that the salon’s manicurists have experience and qualifications in using Cuccio, a luxury nail brand known for its finishes.

5. Our Nail Story Ipoh

At Our Nail Story Ipoh, they prioritise customer satisfaction, and we can certainly attest to that! Upon entering, we encountered a minimalist interior, a comfortable ambiance, and even made a feline friend. What better way to spend a weekend than getting a fresh set of nails while hanging out with an adorable cat? The skilled nail technician ensured she perfectly polished and shaped each nail before starting the painting. We also admired their selection of nail polish colours, which spanned a wide range of pleasing shades.
