I had such a great experience with Juliet at Drip Nail Salon! She’s super talented and efficient— you can tell she really cares about the quality of her work and making sure you leave with nails you love. She’s friendly and professional, which makes the whole appointment feel relaxed and fun. I’ve gotten so many compliments on my nails since seeing her, and I can’t wait to book again. Highly recommend Juliet if you’re looking for someone who truly knows their craft!

Jenny and Tracy are the best! These ladies never disappoint me when I get my hands and feet done. I love the builder gel, my nails are so healthy. I wish I would have taking more pictures my other nails they did, more to come. Shout out to Duke for taking care of us when we arrive!!! Everyone here is good and the Customer Service is out of this world Amazing!! This what I got done today. Check them out.

Tiff is hands down the sweetest and funniest nail tech I’ve ever been to! She’s professional, and always makes sure my nails look the way I want. I leave every appointment loving my nails and wanting to come back. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for the cutest nails and a great experience!

Linda is truly one of the best in Houston—hands down. I’m very picky when it comes to my nails, and she absolutely delivers every time. I’ll bring in an inspo photo or just describe the vibe I’m going for, and somehow she always takes it to the next level. Her attention to detail is unmatched, and you can tell how much she cares—about her craft and her clients. Every set is flawless, and her application? Impeccable. I’m really rough on my nails and since I started seeing Linda, I haven’t broken or chipped a single one. That alone is magic. And I say this as someone who’s gotten their nails done religiously for the past ten years—I’ve never received as many compliments on my nails as I have since Linda started doing them. People stop me constantly to ask who did them. The salon itself is also such a gem. It’s beautiful, never rushed, and full of personal touches that make you feel like a real client, not just another appointment. If you’re thinking about booking with Linda (or visiting this salon at all), don’t hesitate. You’ll walk out obsessed with your nails and already counting down to your next set.

ASK FOR JULIET!! She was great! She explained to me the difference of poly gel and gel x and how gel x would work better for me since I don’t like it when my hand/nails feel heavy and since I don’t get them done often. Not only that but she nailed the base color and the French tips. Definitely recommend her and will be coming back again. They also gave me nail oil to take home! 💕
