About

Nail Kitchen describes itself as a professional nail salon and beauty spa. It has two locations, one on Mercantile Drive in Raleigh and one on Fenton Market Way in Cary, and both keep the same weekly hours, Monday through Friday 10am to 7pm, Saturday 10am to 6pm, and Sunday 11am to 5pm. Online booking is available at both.

The menu is built around manicures and pedicures with a long list of add-ons, plus acrylic and gel enhancements that include full sets, fill-ins, color powder, ombre, and dip powder. Pedicures range from a classic service to multi-step options that add scrubs, masks, hot stone massage, aromatherapy or salt soaks, paraffin, and a glass of wine or champagne at the top tier. Several tiers can be done with shellac polish.

Guests check in when they arrive, and the salon describes its spaces as clean, modern, and designed for relaxation. Both locations have a full-service private bar where guests can order craft cocktails. Joining the bar takes a one-time $1 membership. A private room is available for groups, which requires a $100 deposit and at least three people present at the appointment time.

Children 10 and under have their own Princess menu, with nail and toe polish applications and a manicure or pedicure designed for them. Waxing covers the face, underarms, bikini, arms, and legs, and brow and lash tinting and lash extensions round out the menu.

The salon says it follows sanitation standards it describes as industry-leading, and that it sterilizes all metal tools in hospital-grade autoclaves.

Clean, modern rooms designed for relaxation, according to the salon.
