Bangkok's nail salons run from three seat studios tucked behind Charoen Krung shophouses to counters inside Central Embassy, and the practical differences are usually menu depth, opening hours and how far ahead you have to book. This page gathers seven salons across the city that run a website of their own, publish their own service list and name a street address you can find. Everything below is drawn from what each salon states publicly, so you can check the same pages yourself before you sit down in the chair.
How we compared these nail salons
We only listed salons that maintain a working site on their own domain, name a Bangkok address, and publish a nail menu readable before booking. Listings that exist only on booking marketplaces or social media were left out, because their details change without notice and cannot be checked against the salon itself. Nothing here is scored, graded or ranked, and no treatment was tested. The order is not a judgement. Where a salon publishes prices or opening hours we say so, and where it does not we say that too.
BARE NAIL SPA
BARE NAIL SPA runs an Ekkamai room at EKM 6 on Ekkamai 6 Alley, open daily 10am to 8pm, and a second counter inside The Glass Market in Bang Na that closes an hour earlier and sits outside Bangkok province. The menu covers gel manicures and pedicures, Polygel and gel-tip extensions, custom nail art, and hand and foot spa treatments. The salon states that it selects non-toxic, cruelty-free and organic products; that is its own description rather than a verified standard. Bookings go through LINE, and the contact page carries both addresses and phone numbers.
Turquoise Nail Salon
Turquoise Nail Salon is at 314 Sukhumvit Road beside Asok BTS, directly opposite Terminal 21, which makes it one of the simpler options to reach on public transport. Its published list runs to spa manicures and pedicures using Tangerine and Footlogix products, gel polish options, nail extensions in polygel and acrylic, nail painting and accessories, and waxing for legs, arms, underarms and eyebrows. Neither prices nor opening hours are published anywhere on the site, so call the number given on the services page before travelling, especially on public holidays.
Summer Nail Studio
Summer Nail Studio has a Charoen Krung shop open daily 10.30am to 8pm and a Silom branch near BTS Sala Daeng open 9.30am to 8.30pm, plus a related counter called Cuticles in the Silom Grand Sala Daeng Tower. The Silom room holds only three seats, so the studio advises booking ahead even though walk-ins are accepted. Published services include gel polish, BIAB, PVC, gel and acrylic extensions, custom art, hand and foot spa steps, heel scrub and kids nails. Directions and booking links sit on the Silom branch page.
La La Nail Land
La La Nail Land occupies a unit at 19 Sukhumvit 65 in Ekkamai and is one of the few salons here that publishes an actual price band, roughly 200 to 2,200 baht across nail care and color, extensions and removals, art, spa treatments, lashes, brows and waxing. It opens Tuesday to Sunday, 10am to 8pm, and closes on Mondays, which is worth noting if you plan a start of week appointment. Named product brands include Gelish, OPI, Essie and Zoya. Slots can be requested on the nail services page, by phone or through LINE.
20nailstudio
20nailstudio works out of unit L4-26 inside Central Embassy on Phloen Chit Road, open every day from 10am to 8pm, which suits anyone folding a manicure into a shopping trip rather than a dedicated journey. Four categories are published: nail extensions in acrylic, gel or hybrid, spa manicure, spa pedicure with technical add-ons the studio lists as callus removal and ingrown toenail care, and a paraffin treatment for hands or feet. No prices are shown and there is no online form, so use the numbers on the studio site to secure a specific slot.
Pink It Up Nails, Lashes & Wax
Pink It Up Nails, Lashes & Wax is at 2440 New Phetchaburi Road in Huai Khwang, within reach of Thonglor and Rama 9 but well off the usual tourist strip, which tends to mean easier same day availability. It presents itself as a one-stop salon: gel polish, nail art, manicures, pedicures and acrylic, gel or polygel extensions, alongside eyelash extensions, lash lifting and tinting, and waxing. A separate menu and prices page is published. Opening hours are not stated, so confirm them via the contact page.
What to check before you book
Choosing among these seven salons ultimately comes down to matching the shop's strengths to what you actually need done. If you're after a simple polish change or routine manicure, almost any reputable option on this list will serve you well. But if you're booking a more involved service like acrylic extensions, dip powder, or intricate nail art, it's worth calling ahead to confirm the technician has specific experience with that technique.
Before you sit down for your appointment, a few questions are worth asking no matter which salon you choose. Ask how tools are sterilized between clients, and don't hesitate to ask to see the process if you're unsure. Confirm exactly which services are offered and what they cost, since gel, acrylic, and dip powder treatments often carry different price points. If you have sensitive skin or nail allergies, ask which product brands the salon uses for polish, gel, and adhesives.
Keep in mind that pricing, staff, and even ownership at nail salons in Bangkok can shift over time, so treat the details in this guide as a starting point for your own research rather than the final word.
If your trip to Bangkok includes a broader beauty itinerary, such as facials, hair treatments, or skin clinics alongside your nail appointment, you may find it useful to look at this rundown of beauty clinics in Bangkok, which looks at other beauty-focused options around the city beyond nail care.
Merry Day Nail Care sits inside the Ma Peng Seng Apartment building on Sukhumvit 31, a short walk from BTS Phrom Phong, and states daily hours of 10am to 8pm. The published menu is built around manicure and pedicure spa sets, including ones named after Innisfree and Aesop products, plus nail color and design, paraffin, extension and removal, fill-in and coating, and a shorter mini care option for a quick tidy up. Membership and gift cards are also sold. No prices appear online, so read the service pages and confirm cost and duration when you book.
