    It is very, very, very important to me that a nail shop is clean and up to safety standards and Lúa is. I love being greeted as soon as I walk in with warm, bright smiles and positive energy. The shop is gorgeous, I just love the decor. I love the featured pedicures each month, holiday or season with a pairing mocktail, I might add. How unique is that. No they unfortunately do not have wine, but the time and quality they perform on my nails definitely makes up for that. I love how they take really good care of your nails and provide great conversation and customer service. They work together as a team, if a nail tech has to go, they all pitch in to make sure the customer is happy. Very family oriented and just positive energy.

    (3/19/25) My inspo vs. my nail pic...not a really big fan. The lady rushed towards the end, I feel like I have Jersey Nails (no offense to anyone from jersey) but she layered my gel thick af. I wanted to really love this salon. I saw another nail tech in there I want to try...so I'll keep yall updated. The overall salon was nice, staff was super friendly and there was parking (3/30/25) So they invited me back to fix my nails which I thought was super nice. The nail tech informed me I would have to pay due to my nails being close to two weeks old (needed a fill-in) which I agreed because it made sense plus I wanted a fresh set. I sent my nails inspo the day before (seen below, pink ombre w/gel design). I was really hoping this time it would come out nice...it actually got worse. The colors are wayyy off - for the nail bed she used a dark pink (almost brown looking) the ombre isnt smooth and the gel design isnt even close. I tried waiting a day for them to grow on me but the more I noticed how bad it was. Its unfortunate, I really wanted this salon to work

    Finally found the nail salon! After cracking my acrylic nail (again ), I decided it was time for a change and came across this gem while looking for a new salon. I booked an appointment the day before with a $15 deposit--super easy process. After chatting with a friend, I decided to try GelX for the first time. I was randomly paired with a tech named Kelly, and honestly, I lucked out. She didn't talk much, which I appreciated since I spend all day talking at work--peace and quiet was exactly what I needed. I showed her my inspo photo, and while my acrylic was soaking off properly (not the horror of ripping it off ), Kelly went and found all the exact polish colors from the picture. Total match! She was so gentle with my damaged nail beds (two were broken from the acrylics), and her attention to detail was everything. The shape, the length, the design--perfect. It was worth every single cent. From the moment I walked in to walking out the door--with a full acrylic removal, GelX application, and custom design--it was less than 2 hours. Efficient and flawless. Can't wait to come back. Highly recommend, especially if you're ready to treat your nails better!

    Five years later and still one of the best places to get your mani/pedi. Customer service is great and the salon is consistently clean. Kelly always gets it right! Thanks Lua!

    Amazing work !

    I have been coming to this salon for almost two years now. The booking process is very easy and detailed. They also send you text reminders so you don't miss your appointment. Everyone is very nice and friendly. I love that they ask you to wash your hands before the service. They have a great variety of pedicures and nail colors. The artist are amazing and they collaborate well with each other. I recently started having Tom do my nails and I am never disappointed with his work. He is very kind and talented! He always makes sure to ask how I'm doing throughout the service and checks to make sure I like the design that's being done. Overall, the salon is well managed. It smells amazing and the staff are professional and great at what they do.

    New to MD, I was looking for another nail salon and found this place with great reviews, and the service was excellent (shoutout to Candy). I highly recommend it, and the vibe is also fantastic.

    "I can't say enough great things about Lua Nail Spa! First off, I was in DC on travel from Chicago when I saw the nails of a Tiffany & Co. employee during a purchase, who told me this place was the truth. Let me tell you my hour drive was well worth it. If you're looking for stunning custom nail art and luxurious pedicures, this is the place to go. The nail artists are incredibly talented and can bring any design inspiration you have to life with precision and EXTRA creativity. They truly go above and beyond to make your nails stand out. VICKY was gave me hands down the best pedicure I ever had as I prepped for my wedding. The premium pedicure experience is heavenly--I did the Holiday special with all the works. This package was completed with soothing scrubs, hydrating masks, and an extended massage that leaves your feet feeling pampered and refreshed. The attention to detail and cleanliness is top-notch, and the entire team is so friendly and professional. Whether you're looking for a unique design or just a relaxing day of self-care, the sweet owner and her sister Emma will assist to deliver every time. Highly recommend!"

    Great experiment! Ngan did so amazing on my nails. Jennifer applied my gel x and shaped them perfectly and Ngan did an exact replica of my inspiration pic. Inspo pic vs my nail....10/10

    Finally. I recently started to get my nails done again and I've been to maybe 10 different salons in the past year. I started to lose hope that there were any good places left in the area. I tried this place today and love my nails! They are reasonably priced and did a great job. They don't take walk ins ( at least per the website) but it's very easy to make a last minute appointment. I'm happy that I found a place that I actually want to go back to.

    I don't routinely get my nails done anymore ONLY because I live far away from the shop. However, I needed to get my nails done for my wedding and Lua Nails is still the only place I will go. I made the hour trip and they did not disappoint. Still the same clean, reliable, and consistent service after all of these years.

    I have been coming to this salon for 5 years and will never leave! Amazing service, quality, and a good vibe every time!!! I've never left disappointed

    Hanna didn't even paint the full nail you can clearly see.

    Ask the Community - Lúa Nail Spa

    Do they use electric tools trying to find a place that doesn't sue to the damage they cause?

    Yes, but sparingly and gently. They are more concerned about the health of your nail bed. My nails are thin so I am sensitive to this topic.

    Do you guys have an online booking service?

    Yes, we do! You can use this link here: https://luanailspa.schedulista.com/… Read more

    I called and asked if this salon did walk-ins. I was told no, only online booking. How does a new customer book an appointment?

    I got a Brazilian with Christina and I rarely leave reviews but when I find someone as great as her…read moreit'd be a crime not to! It's been awhile since I got a brazilian since I jst moved to Maryland a year ago and the experience with the first person out her I went to was not pleasant. but Christina was sooo awesome! I was so comfortable and the waxing was surprisingly MUCH LESS PAINFUL!! She is a god send! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

    My experience with Christina at Skin Zen Spa was absolutely great!…read more If you are looking for a knowledgeable, thorough, patient esthetician you have found your spot.   I sought Christina out because I did not want to visit a commercial chain spa for a basic facial, and I did not want to go to a "ritzy" spa with a lot of frill that I reserve for girls day out or a bachelorette party. I wanted a nice experience with a thorough, quality facial because the winter did quite a number on my face and I find the solo practitioner esthetician to be a bit more clinical and thorough, while still providing a tranquil environment. LOCATION: So first let me tell you...being new to Maryland I'd never heard of Old Savage Mill where the spa is located.  It's a quaint, older, historical revamped building that I believe used to be a textile plant.  There is ample parking.  Old savage Mill has little clusters of private shops. The shops are unique shops such as photography studios, hair salons and antique shops. It really is an enjoyable experience - you almost feel like you are on a field trip.  I had time to kill before I was able to get an appointment so it was great to explore.  I even bought a few items! Zen is a little tricky to find within the compound. The layout of the shopping area is unique.  It is split up into little buildings with different names.  Skin Zen is located in the "Spinning Building." The best way to get there is to find the "New Weave" building, make a left, go through the double glass doors, make another left, follow though and make a left at the wedding dress shop, go past the restaurant and make another left, and Zen is down the hall to your left.  If you have to use the rest room there are many within the building but not in Christina's private section, as the building is not designed that way so just go before you get to your appointment and disrobe.  Not a big deal abut I figure useful information. ESTHETICIAN: Christina is very nice! I was a walk in and she was able to accommodate me within one hour. The setup is perfect. She has a receiving area and a private back room where she provides services.  Christina gives you a form to fill out about your history and inquiring about your concerns.  She then speaks with you to review the information.  She then examines you and goes over what she feels will be best for you.  She does not pressure or upsell.   After my consult I decided to go for the H2o Oxygen facial. She is very knowledgeable about skin. I am an African-American woman and I was impressed that she made it a point to talk about the things unique to darker pigments.  For example, she explained how extractions with too much pressure may scar my skin type and she would take great care to avoid that. That is always comforting and it let me know I was dealing with a knowledgeable esthetician. She is very friendly and you immediately feel at ease. She will follow your lead with conversation.  She is very detailed and takes her time.  It was a relaxing experience. She even gave me a great shoulder hand and arm massage - giving me the option to choose between hands or feet.  Normally estheticians just leave you in the room, with a mask. Not Christina...she uses that time to provide an added extra benefit of a shoulder hand or shoulder massage included in the service.  Devine!   She accurately knew where my tension was and gave me some advice, admitting that she was not a massage therapist but she had some great suggestions.  RESULTS Christina sent me home with a post treatment package included in my service.  She explained how to keep up the treatment.  She did not heavily push the products just but explained each one she used. I ended up buying two from the organic line of the products she uses. All together I spent about $190.00 dollars.  I feel it was money very well spent. My face is heavenly! Smooth and bright.  It is indeed one of the very best facials I have EVER received and I have gone to many ritzy downtown Manhattan spas.  This facial easily outdoes them all.  She hit all the areas I had issue with. Though I felt I needed many extractions and all types of steam she explained that she tailored to the client's needs and I did not need that.    Don't you just love when we come in telling professionals what we need? LOL I had to laugh at myself when I went home. She was right.  My face is beautiful and clear and where normally I would have some sensitivity and redness after a facial. I have none. And to top it off I woke up this morning and my hands and arms were UNBELIVABLLY soft.  I mean unrealistically so. I kept touching myself.  LOL So I have to call her back today to see what she used on my shoulder, arm and hand massage. So I say all of this to say you will not regret going to Skin Zen Spa!

    I really enjoyed this my service at this location.

I've been getting Brazilians for the past 6 years. This place is RUSHED. You will be expected to strip while the esthetician is in the room and you will get dressed while she's talking to you. The esthetician only talks to you about waxing, not super personable. Nothing there to make you comfortable. No pillows or decor or conversation. The entire time I was there took 15 minutes. She didn't let me check to see if everything looked good. So, you're just guessing what to tip. After, they force you to book your next appointment. I guess to make you come back. But personally, I'm not sure that I will. I'm already uncomfortable being spread eagle naked for a stranger, but nothing about this place made it any easier. Staff was vaping at the side of the building. Yelling you can hear from the room you're getting waxed in. Esthetician talking at the speed of light about your hair growth pattern. If you're fine with being treated like a cash cow, this is the place.

    I forget that this spa is here…read more I came here because someone gifted me a gift card. I was a little bit offended when I got the gift card because I had never heard of this place. Who is Robert Andrew? The drive here from the city is a good 45 minutes drive if you don't have traffic, so add traffic and now I'm driving to the boonies for spa day, the math didn't math. However, I finally made my way to the boondocks and was quite surprised, not quite the spa I'm used to but not bad. They do not have a relax room or at least I wasn't offered that. Not sure if that's because they were busy or I got overlooked. I know relaxation rooms, their "tranquility" room, is likely small as most are but, I'm used to being told to come early or stay late to utilize all amenities. This wasn't done for me. The ONLY thing I love is that this place has couple rooms. Massages for couples, ummmmm YES please. I also love that they have packages for full day services that include lunch. A all day spa day is something every woman should do a few times a year. Not many places cater to this type of service anymore so for me, that's a plus here. Overall, cute spa, clean, and somewhat upscale. I wouldn't drive to this spa for service but if I lived in the area, I would come. Prices are reasonable. 3 stars for me only cause they do not have valet service, it's self parking, I didn't get to use the tranquility room, maybe it was packed, who knows, but if you advertise a tranquility room let your customers use it. If I'm paying 500$ plus for spa services I want full service from the door to the spa table and back! 3 stars but would return!
