I remember this shop priding in the fact that if you didn't make an appointment and you were a walk-in, you had to wait. I did call ahead but I didn't make an appointment, but I didn't expect to wait almost 20 minutes when Ann said she had availability at 4:30pm. I didn't get seen or started on until I'll almost 5pm. I don't mind waiting, but I prioritize communication and honesty over anything else. I like to know what I'm walking into! My technician - didn't catch his name, was great! He gave me the design I wanted and I was satisfied with the art design. This place is still a staple, but I feel like they've kinda let go of their salon a bit...

The chairs are super comfortable -- I sat there for almost two hours and my back didn't bother me at all, which I really appreciated. Iryna did such a great job -- gentle, careful, and really pays attention to details. I got a gel pedicure in a deep red color and I love it, it looks so gorgeous. The location is convenient and parking was easy, which is always a plus. This is probably the best pedicure I've had in the last 5 years in Houston. I'll definitely be coming back!

Tina is an artist - I don't have to look through trays of colors, I just tell her a general color I'm feeling and she nails it every time (see what I did there?) 2. My manicures last a solid month, and would last even longer if they didn't grow & the length didn't start to make it difficult for me to type. No chips, no smears, no imperfections 3. My nails are healthy, I have none of the issues I've seen others have - the place and her utensils are spotless and never reused & she takes the time to do them right each & every time, never cutting corners. And why not sip on a pineapple mimosa or a glass of wine while you're there? Hands down the best!

Vivie was my nail tech--if I lived in Houston she would definitely become my go to for service. Vivie is very meticulous and attentive to detail. She was open to the different nail art designs I was debating and let me test a color before settling on my final look. Quality 5/5 The quality is impeccable. I appreciate that the salon operates on appointments only. This creates an atmosphere for the tech and customer to have ample time for the service. Vibe 5/5 The salon is contemporary and clean. The woman at the front desk is welcoming and everyone was kind that I interfaced with. The waiting area is cozy as well. Vivie was an absolute joy to work with and I enjoyed her personality--we had some good laughs! I highly recommend her. Thank you Vivie and Adore Nail Salon. p.s. I found the salon on TikTok and after reading comments and checking out Instagram and the website, I selected this salon.

This nail salon is very detailed, they do pay attention to the design you want and they try to…read morerecreate that. Very friendly customer service. Very clean and spacious located in heights area. It is extremely important to book correctly, if you want a detailed design you have to book "Nail design" and if you have nail removal you also have to include that when booking. To account for the time you need. If you book incorrectly, the nail tech wouldn't know until next client arrives and then they rush or switch you to another nail tech to finish. Although they are still very kind about it, it is clear you have to book correctly. I came for birthday nails in late April and expected it to be pricey but didn't realize nail asking for a 3-D nail design increase price significantly. Normal French tip charge at Adore is $20, so anything additional like polka dots or another color is added on the $20. Total nail design was $60, gel x short is $70, nail removal $10 = total of $140 for nails alone. Although I realize you are paying for art, for their time, dedication, expertise and their patience to design the nail how you want. It is pricey in my opinion. I would go back but only for solid color or French tip only.

The wait was minimal, 10 mins for a technician to become available. Good selection of nail polishes, mainly DND, lacking in OPI availability.

The technician blamed the issue on me for "scratching my nose" instead of keeping my hand under the light, which was both rude and inaccurate, as the problem occurred on both hands--not just the one I briefly moved. Even after the redo, the polish did not cure properly. Less than 48 hours later, the nails are still malleable and the top layer of polish is already flaking off. Although I could return to request a redo, their website notes that refunds are not offered--only corrections within a limited timeframe. Given the experience, I do not feel comfortable returning or spending additional time on a service that should have been done correctly the first time.
