About

Ren Nail Studio is run by its owner, Kristen, and is located at 800 W Williams St, Suite 106, inside Sola Salons in Apex. The studio focuses on waterless manicures and pedicures. Instead of soaking hands or feet in a tub, the technician wraps them in a warm towel. The business states that this approach helps polish last longer, uses less water, and reduces germ spread in salons.

The studio chooses products with care to avoid the strongest odors and toxins common in nail care. Most services use gentle formulas, many of them hypoallergenic. Products are either unscented or scented with essential oils, and no artificial fragrances are used. When a suitable cuticle oil, lotion, or scrub cannot be found, the studio makes its own. It does not use monomer or apply acrylics. The business describes its cleaning and sanitizing of tools and surfaces as meticulous.

Services can be adjusted for oncology patients, and the studio has completed training from Oncology Spa Solutions for nail care suited to that population. Clients who prefer a quiet appointment are accommodated.

Add-ons range from $4 for the chilled under-eye mask to $25 for removing non Ren gel or enhancement. Other options include a creamy scrub and extra massage at $6 each, Ren gel removal at $10, IBX treatment, moisturizing oil treatment, and Dazzle Dry at $15 to $18, and French finish and ombré design at $20. Nail art is priced per nail at $5. Hours are Tuesday 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Wednesday 1 p.m. to 8 p.m., Thursday 12 p.m. to 3 p.m., and Friday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The studio is closed Monday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Waterless service throughout, with products chosen to limit odors and harsh ingredients, and a focus on colorful nails without the health concerns some nail products raise.
