The Gloss Junkie is a nail salon in Mooresville, North Carolina, owned by Ashley, who also works as a nail tech at the salon. The salon is open Tuesday and Thursday from 9:30 AM to 9 PM and Wednesday and Friday from 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM, and is closed Monday, Saturday and Sunday. After-hours appointments can be requested by text or direct message for an extra fee of $25; they must be approved in advance and depend on availability.
The menu is organized into manicures, pedicures, nail repair, soak-offs and add-ons. Manicures include Russian-style manicures on dry prep with gel polish, as well as options that pair the Russian method with builder gel, rubber base gel, hard gel fill-ins or Gel-X full sets. Pedicures range from a regular waterless bare pedicure, which the salon describes as its signature premium waterless option, to gel pedicures, gel waterless pedicures and structure gel pedicures with a hard gel overlay. Gel polish changes for hands or toes are offered as shorter appointments that do not include cuticle work.
IBX treatment is central to the nail repair menu. The salon describes IBX as a certified professional system. First-time IBX repair for natural nails is a bare treatment with no gel polish or cuticle grooming, while returning clients can book ongoing maintenance. Hands-only and toes-only first visits are available for new clients with a $15 deposit, and IBX add-ons can be booked alongside a manicure or pedicure.
Ashley specializes in structure gel overlays, which are designed to support natural nails as they grow, and creates custom nail art that can range from minimalist to bold and detailed. The salon describes its setting as relaxed, with good conversation and a lively mood during appointments.
Booking policies are strict and worth reading before a visit. A non-refundable deposit secures an appointment and goes toward the total. Cancellations within 24 hours are charged 50% of the service total, while same-day cancellations and no-call, no-show appointments are charged the full booked amount. Cancellations, no-shows or changes made without notice count as strikes, and clients who reach two strikes are banned from booking. The private suite is for clients 13 and older, and arriving with children results in cancellation and a full same-day fee. Clients with family emergencies or urgent conflicts are asked to call the salon as soon as possible to reschedule.
The salon builds much of its nail repair work around the IBX treatment, which it describes as a certified professional system, and offers structure gel overlays for clients who want support for natural nail growth.
The salon describes a relaxed space where conversation and good energy are part of the visit.
