About

Polished by Kim is a private nail studio in Spring, Texas, near The Woodlands, run by Kim. It works by appointment only, and each visit is one-on-one with a single artist, so no other clients are in the studio. Clients may bring one guest to an appointment. Kim started the studio as a calmer alternative to a rushed salon visit.

The studio is in the A7 Business Plaza at 26119 I-45, Suite 205, on the second floor. Free parking is available at the front and back of the building. Bookings can be made through the online system or by phone. Evening and weekend appointments are offered, and same-day slots are sometimes available. Prices listed on the website are starting prices; the final cost depends on length, design complexity and added services, and pricing is discussed before any service begins.

The studio uses gel polish as its main polish. Its menu covers the Russian Manicure, a dry e-file treatment done with gel polish, along with Builder Gel, Gel-X extensions, acrylics, custom nail art and pedicures. The studio says it is one of the few specialists in The Woodlands and Spring that offers the Russian Manicure. According to the studio's website, it holds a 5.0 Google rating from 100 reviews. For hygiene, non-disposable tools are first scrubbed by hand, then run through an ultrasonic cleaner with Barbicide solution, then sealed and sterilized with dry heat. Each client gets a freshly sealed pouch of tools opened in front of them.

The studio works on a private, unhurried basis, with one artist handling each appointment from start to finish.
