About

Adore Nail Studio is an appointment-based nail salon on West 18th Street in Houston. The menu covers manicures, pedicures, nail art, nail enhancements such as Gel-X, builder gel and dip powder, polish changes, removals, and a set of add-on treatments. Waxing is also offered.

Pedicures are organized as named options, from the Essential pedicure up to the Vegan Oatmilk pedicure. Each step up adds soaks, scrubs, masks and massage to the one before it. The studio says its pedicures use an ozone water system, which it describes as a disinfectant used in the medical field. Gel polish can be added to any pedicure.

Nail art is priced in four tiers by complexity, from minimal to moderate designs up to intricate work. French options, airbrush ombre or aura, cat eye and pearl chrome, and outline designs are listed separately. Design pricing is not published online because it depends on complexity. Clients can text an inspiration photo to get help choosing a tier.

Clients are asked to say when booking whether they need removals, nail art or design, or cat eye or French tips, since those take extra time and must be scheduled ahead. Hours are Monday to Saturday from 10 AM to 7 PM and Sunday from 11 AM to 5 PM. New clients, and anyone with past no-shows or late cancellations, are asked to leave a deposit.

Appointment-based service, with the nail design shared by text ahead of the visit so the time booked matches the work.

The salon describes its space as serene.
