Had a wonderful experience here! It’s been years since I’ve been, and was pleasantly surprised by the experience. I saw the recent reviews and thought it was worth revisiting. The salon is super clean and organized. The space is very relaxing. My nail tech, Sophia, did a great job. Her attention to detail was appreciated, she took her time. I felt inclined to leave a review, it was a great experience. I’m always anxious about trying out a new salon.

Cindy is outstanding! She is professional, knowledgeable, caring and respectful! I had the caveman pedicure and it was money well spent! I have been taking care of my own feet since COVID-19 began and it showed. I feel like I have new feet! They are gorgeous and feel so good! Thank you Cindy and thank you to the Charming Nails Team (Sophia and Helen)for being so welcoming and warm to my daughter and I . She got acrylic nails and they look beautiful!We are both coming back again!

Wow. I love this place. Not only is the customer service amazing. There is plenty of dip powder, and gel options. May I also add the quality is perfection. Helen is amazing and so is everyone there. Very skillful and talented team. I will say this is more of a boutique style salon. Which I appreciate. There is also a point system that I love. Refreshments as well.

I was in town and needed my nails done. I went to Charming Nails for a dip manicure and Helen took care of me. She was gentle with my nails and easy to talk to. She gave me the best dip manicure I've ever. Her work was thorough, precise, and high quality. If I lived in DC, this would be my go to salon. Get your nails done here, walk along Wisconsin Ave, and then do some shopping on M St.

I was able to book a same day appointment very easily online. The space is on the second floor and is new, fresh, and clean. The environment is relaxing and the staff is really friendly! Sophia did my nails and she did an amazing job :-) it’s just a pretty, natural color and I feel great about the service. I will be returning !

I loved this place! Sophia did my nails and she was just lovely, super polite and warm. She paid extra attention to the design I wanted and even though it was hard to see on my phone, she tried her hardest and it came out better than the inspo! All three of the staff are welcoming and very nice, I really recommend this place. My treatment was also fairly cheap, only $68 for a full set of gel polish acrylic nails with two color nail art (they gave me a discount even though it was my first time?!) and they gave me water and a nice hand massage at the end. Would give it 10 stars if I could, telling

A few weeks ago, my sister decided it was time my chewbacca feet and Freddy claws get tended to and I also have some downtime for self care.

what I thought was going to be a typical, just like anywhere, pedicure for me, turned out not to be the case. What actually happened was the bar was not only set, but I was taken away to a land of never settling for less moving forward!

I received the caveman pedicure, which pays exclusive attention to detail to the feet of a person who is on them day by day and does not get regular maintenance.

from cleaning my toes, to the massage, to the clean tools

My favorite nail place in DC! Charming Nails had to close for a year during the pandemic and I literally tried any and every nail place in DC and no one even came close to providing the level of service and care that Charming Nails done. I was so happy to hear that they were re-opening right before my wedding. Helen did a phenomenal job with my nails and gave me the most luxurious pedicure. It really made the start of my wedding weekend just fabulous! I highly recommend Charming Nails to anyone in the DC area looking for excellent and consistent service and 1000% recommend booking with Helen!

I've been going here for about 2 years now and the service never fails me. Helen is so detailed and precise when I get any of my services done, but also the entire staff is just the same way. They just moved to a new location and it's so beautiful in there and they enforce Covid protocols. I would definitely go visit and you can book online!
Also, they have a TON of color options and even have a new line of polishes that is called Dazzle Dry. It's essentially a healthier alternative to both gel and regular polish.

So I've been going to charming nails for years at their previous location before the pandemic. I always do my nails with Helen and Sophie they are the best. I'm glad they reopened at another location (same street Wisconsin Ave) the new place is so neat and clean with the same great services. I showed them a picture of what I wanted and Helen did it for me. Totally recommend !

Came back for a manicure and it was great. I usually avoid getting manis because the techs always hurt me or screw up the shape of my nails. But this mani was very impressive. Only one nail was a little crooked, which is forgivable! The nail tech did my mani in a half hour and my nails really do look great. $15 was a good price too. I will be back for manis!

I always come back here after trying other nail salons in Georgetown and being disappointed. Sophia is amazing. Her gel manis are great. She really pays attention to detail and is very sweet. I've never been unhappy with any service I've received.

You really need to make an appointment bc it's tough to walk in. Especially on weekends.

I'm going to be staying in Georgetown for the next two months because of work. I've never been one to get my nails done; in fact, I've always painted them black with the cheapest polishes.

I recently changed my style to be more professional and I decided it was time for me to branch out into the large industry that offers self care services. After researching the litany of salons in the Georgetown area, I ended up here. The place was smaller than I anticipated, but they were able to take me right away since I came in on a Tuesday afternoon.

The staff was laid back, which I appreciated

Best nail salon in the District, hands down. They're tucked away in a second floor space so you really feel like you're in on the best kept secret in Georgetown: *affordable* nail services!

I've always had sad, stubby, weak nails, but since I've been a client here my natural nails have grown long and strong. I almost can't believe it.

The key is their SNS dip powder - it's a zero-fume (no nasty chemical smell), super strong powder layer they can put directly on your nail or over plastic tips if you want to "fake it" until yours grow longer, like I did

Was in the georgetown area for something else and wanted to find a place to get my nails done with my friends! Saw the reviews and pictures for here so I decided to give them a try! I called to make appointments for myself and 2 other girlfriends which was easy to do. I saw that they also take walk ins. They also answered my questions that i had.

When walking to this place it's easy to miss! You just have to look for a door with their name and go up the steps. The stairwell has some funky smell which made me a little worried to have picked this place. We walk in and it's nothing glamorous

Kelly is the best! I've been on a search to find a good nail tech in the DMV area after my tech of 5 years relocated. Who knew it would be a job in it self. I'm so glad, I found Kelly @ Charming Nails in Georgetown.

My nails last 3 weeks with no chipping, peeling or breaking. They look natural which is highly important to me.

Kelly's time-slots fills up quickly, I recommend scheduling an appointment and show up on time OR you'll have to re-schedule for another day. That's how quickly her slots fills up.

Pros
- Always start on time.
- Attention to Detail
- Nail designs
