Salon and Spa Directory: South Side Nail Candy

I normally don't get manicures. I just change my nail polish too often to make them be worth the time and money. But in the case of South Side Nail Candy, I'm making an exception -- because this salon is just too adorable for words!

The salon is done up in bright, happy shades of pink and purple -- my favorites when entering a nail salon! Zebra accents lend a fun, exotic touch. There's a fabulous selection of nail colors on hand (pardon the pun) from Essie, OPI and even China Glaze. You can also get gel manicures here, and the technicians create some pretty incredible nail art designs! On my visit I just did a regular manicure, but I can't wait to go back and experience some of the fantastic art.

But what I really love is that everyone who works here is friendly, accommodating and incredibly talented. I got a regular manicure and was thoroughly impressed by the level of skill my technician showed. My nails were buffed to a glossy shine and expertly painted with two coats of one of my very favorite colors, Essie Leading Lady. Better yet ... the manicure lasted WITHOUT CHIPPING for over a week! Now THAT'S good.
