Dubbed 'the most luxurious nail salon in the world', The Townhouse features private mani-and-pedi booths, ultra high-end interiors, and an eye-catching marble manicure bar—and that's just the aesthetics.

Spa manicures provide not just a longer-lasting result, but also an enjoyable experience that can help promote health and well-being. Although there may be some additional cost associated with the extra products and services used during a spa manicure, the overall benefits can outweigh the extra expense.

A spa manicure typically lasts longer than a regular manicure, and more emphasis is placed on the overall experience, rather than hand maintenance. The base service typically doesn't include acrylic, dip or shellac nails, so if that's what you're looking for make sure you talk to your technician ahead of time!
