About

Opal Nails and Wellness is a nail studio in Sterling, Virginia, run by owner and nail technician Julie Dorj. The studio's approach centers on keeping clients' natural nails healthy, and it uses waterless methods for its pedicures and for its dipping powder service.

The menu is organized into manicures and pedicures. Basic manicures and pedicures include trimming, shaping and cuticle work, with options for gel polish and an added foot massage. The luxury pedicure is the most extensive option, adding a longer massage, an organic sugar scrub, a mask, and paraffin wax warmed in an electric heater foot warmer.

For longer-lasting color, the studio offers dipping powder, which hardens with a liquid activator rather than a UV or LED lamp. Clients who want added strength can choose builder gel, a gel overlay for natural nails only. Builder gel requires e-file cuticle cleaning and e-file removal, and a builder refill depends on whether the existing set needs a refill or full removal.

Clients who already have gel polish need to book a gel removal add-on. Appointments need at least 24 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours' notice, and no-shows, are charged 50% of the booked service. Buy Now, Pay Later is available for bookings between $50 and $4,000, with approval needed before the appointment.

The studio is open Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 10 AM to 7 PM, and closed Monday, Thursday and Sunday. The studio describes its setting as clean, comfortable and luxurious.

The studio focuses on waterless nail care and on maintaining the natural health of clients' nails, with the aim of nails that look and feel healthy.
