Nail salon in Baltimore

September 10, 2015 6:12 AM

I'm going to be in Baltimore for a wedding this weekend (leaving this afternoon) and I won't have time to get my nails done at my regular place before I go. Can anyone recommend a decent place to get a manicure? I'm staying in Fells Point, so anywhere accessible from there would be good (I know my way around Baltimore, but I won't have access to a car).

I haven't been there yet, but this place in Harbor East is supposed to be good. There's also this place in Hampden if you want to trek that far. (If you do and you want a buddy, let me know! My nails are a mess and I'm still in birthday week 'treat yo self' mode.)

BTW - If you want to try the place in Harbor East, call first. The reason I haven't been there yet is because I tend to want a manicure at the last minute and they get pretty booked if you try calling the day of.

Seconding QQ Nails in Hampden. It opened just a few months ago and already has a huge loyal following--mostly because nail options around Hampden sucked before that. I love the place; the polish lasts weeks and weeks. Caveat: I only get pedicures. However, Hampden isn't that accessible from Fells Point without a car, unless you take Uber.

I'll check out the one in Harbor East, thanks. Worst case scenario I pick up some polish and touch up my current manicure.
