Christian Nails & Spa

They did a great job on my gel manicure. It has lasted a really long time. And they use sunblock on your hands before having you put them under the UV lights, which I appreciated.

I typically write my reviews to some sort of tune, but truth be told, it’s much tougher to do that when there are less products or services consumed. I come here for manicures regularly and pedicures occasionally. The service is speedy and high quality. Their polish choices are diverse and kept up-​to-​date, and I always get compliments when I’m out on my nail colors. Everyone on the team is good at what they do, the space is clean as a whistle, and the prices are OH-​SO-​RIGHT.
Bonus: any massages that they give during mani or pedi are ON POINT.
I couldn’t ask for anything more for a nail salon, and that’s really all there is to say!

I love this little hidden gem on Christian Street! I recently moved to the area so I was in need of a place to get my gel on. I Unilocaled (thanks!) a few locations and since this had the best reviews I decided to check it out!
I went in around 7 pm on a weeknight and asked for a gel manicure and was quickly ushered to an available chair. Apparently the color I chose needed like 7,000,000 coats to show properly but the woman was very patient and didn’t make me feel like a jerk which was, of course, very nice of her.
The shop was closing but she didn’t rush me through to get out of there. She also made my brows look fancy before I left.
This place is not just great quality with great service, but super affordable! Gel mani and brows was like $ 34! Whaaattttt.
I’ve definitely found my forever-​nail place. (Until I move again, gahhhhhh!)

Stopped in here on a whim. The woman who did my nails (gel manicure) did an amazing job. It took about an hour but it’s really flawless. And inexpensive!

LOVE THIS PLACE! Just moved to the neighborhood and they’re so good! Very relaxing and reasonable pricing.

Convenient, clean, and affordable! Add the lovely personalities of the owner and manicurists, and it’s a win win. I love Christian Nails!

My friend with perfect nail beds gos here all the time, and always looks fantastic. I found the experience to be just ok. This place gets major points for speed and cleanliness. However, I found my manicure to be a little sloppy. My manicurist plan of attack was to get polish all over my cuticles, then remove it rather than just doing it slowly and correctly. It turned out fine, but still had some stray, small dots of polish on my cuticles. There wasn’t a wait on a Saturday, and they did my manicure and pedicure at the same time. So if you like speed, great go there. If you like to relax, the combination of someone at your feet, and someone at your hands and the chair massage going with no free hand to stop it is a bit much. I will definitely give this place another try because 2 of my friends with great nails have made it their spot of choice. For now, it’s just an ok spot that’s not worth leaving my neighborhood for.

I love it here. I am always greeted by name and the entire staff is so friendly. They are always busy when I go, so that’s a good sign that they are doing something right. I’m so glad business is good and they will be around for a while.

Gel Pedicure. Enough said.
The Unilocal police say I need to add more to my review. So I’m adding more words to satisfy their stupid rule. Go ahead Unilocal police, read all my other «short» reviews.
Gah. Annoyed.
Love Christian Nails. Byeeeeee.

Love this place! The environment is very relaxing and clean. The women are all extremely friendly and gentle. I always leave very relaxed and happy with my nails! Pricing is affordable. I come here on the regular!

This is a wonderful nail spa. The staff is extremely professional and helpful. They will ensure that you have a relaxing and perfect manicure or pedicure. (The facials are terrific too, with a lot of massage and great products.) The atmosphere is relaxing and because they do not use harsh products (i.e. no acrylic nails done here), it doesn’t smell like some nail salons — better for us and better for the workers. I love the hours and how willing and able the staff is to ensure that you get your service done well and timely. There is on street parking nearby if you just circle the block. The prices are in line with other spas of similar services. I am so glad this is in my neighborhood.

I called at 6:15 and the lady told me to come in at 7pm. I arrived at 7pm and by 7:30 I was still sitting there with 4 people ahead of me. The place is small, crammed back, and just not relaxing… Sorry– I wanted to like this place but it wasn’t a good experience. I walked out and went elsewhere.

This nail salon is a very welcome addition to the neighborhood! I’ve been a customer since this business opened. I always have a consistently pleasant experience. The salon is friendly, efficient and meticulous. Excellent and long-​lasting gel manicures.

Friendly service, meticulously done nails, great pricing.
I used to be 2 blocks away from this salon so first went out of convenience, but kept going back due to the beautifully done nails and great prices. The ladies are all friendly, and the place is super clean and bright. I have since moved out of the state, but occasionally go back to Philly for work; I always make it a point to go to Christian Nails if I’m in town!

No wait, good chairs. Efficiently do fingers while toes are being done. No complaints. No massage while drying but that’s ok…

Made the big move from Rittenhouse to Graduate Hospital a few months back (only moved a few blocks– but still wanted to explore places that were new to me in this area) I couldn’t get an appointment with my usual nail place and ended up at Christian Nail Salon. Let me just say– I am very happy I did. This is now my go-​to place!
So close to me and the staff is so nice. I always go to Lisa –who is as sweet as can be and is awesome with gel manicures. Still waiting for this arctic hell to be done to try a pedicure– but I’m sure that’ll be great too! They have a huge range of gel colors, too! I told Lisa I wanted a stiletto-​ish shape for my natural nail and then we did OPI Big Apple Red. Needed a break from the usual navy/​black/​maroon hues I was going with for winter. I LOVE them. They look so great! Exactly what I wanted. She made sure to take her time to achieve the right shape on each nail. They do get busy on the weekends and it’s not «frilly» like other salons– no tea, no wine, or anything — but you can always count on quality service and a friendly, welcoming atmosphere. My ONLY complaint is the horrible music. I tell Lisa everytime that they need to change the music! Music is dull and last time — I heard the titanic Celine Dion song TWICE while I was there-​ahh! Ha
Overall– really love this place and they are open on Sunday’s!
Thanks, Lisa, for always doing such a great job!! i

Speedy but thorough service at a great price. Very nice staff. Place was also very clean. This $ 10 mani beats some other $ 25 manis I’ve gotten. Would recommend!

I almost I almost didn’t want to write a review for this place because it’s just what the neighborhood needed and I don’t want it to get too crowded! They deserved it though, sooo…
Prices are competitive
Later hours and a plus
Very clean
Professional
And overall good mani
Very friendly, the lady remembered my name!
I stopped in a Wednesday after I got home from work for the first time and I’ll be back

Its so nice to see an affordable nail salon in my neighborhood! Christian nails has the best service. Affordable for sure. They take their time and are super sweet.
Plenty of colors and variations (for ex: gel nails you can choose OPI Essie And Shellac) They have a coupon right now as well. I got a gel mani and pedicure for $ 40. Cant beat that! Definitely will be back. Thank you ladies!

Absolutely amazing! I literally go to Christian Nails every 2 weeks for my gel mani if not more often for pedicures and brow waxes. It doesn’t hurt that I live right down the street. The women are super friendly and conversational — remembering their clients by name. The salon is clean and doesn’t have the usual nail salon smell. The girls know your time is valuable so they’ll even work on your gel manicure while you’re getting a pedicure. My gel mani always lasts 2 weeks… it would last longer if my nails didn’t start to look grown out by then. Never peels or chips. And the price is right! $ 25 for a gel mani. I never have to wait to get my nails done — someone is always available. No appointment necessary but I’m sure they would appreciate it. I am always looking forward to my next mani at Christian Nails and send all my friends there! Check it out!
