Varnish Lane Mt. Vernon Triangle

Maya was so great! I got gel mani pedi before a beach trip. Maya did a great job!nnI came with my boyfriend and a friend of his. We had to be seated spaced out due to COVID-19 safety measures, which is totally reasonable. Staff were very attentive and safe the whole time. The other guests followed the rules.nnPlease be kind to the staff and follow all the COVID rules.

I had a wonderful experience at Varnish Lane. The staff was extremely friendly and the check in process was very quick and easy. As soon as I arrived I was helped. I wanted to get a design on my nails and my nails look exactly like the reference photo. I am very impressed and will definitely return. I am tired of my nails being brittle and breaking from all the harsh substances used at traditional salons. I hope continuing to visit varnish lane Wil give me the long durable nails I crave!nnThe photos are the reference and my nails!nnUPDATE: My nails did chip within 3 days. I guess that is what I get for trying to move away from gel or dip.

Varnish goes above and beyond for a nail salon. When I scheduled my appointment online, I mentioned the services were for my elopement and when I arrived there was a sweet personalized 'congrats' card at my chair! Felt very special! My pedi and gel mani were perfect and the environment felt safe and very well spaced out but still like a high-end spa. Will return!

I loved my manicure! The spa is clean and so beautiful. And the staff is super kind.

Visited Varnish Lane for some much needed pampering and relaxation amidst election week stress. Was super impressed at how they took me and a friend both for mani/pedis the same day, moving around the schedule to make it work. Their COVID precautions are excellent, and I felt very safe. The environment is as calming and close to spa-like for a nail salon as I have ever seen. Titi provided an excellent mani/pedi--her attention to detail was fantastic and she made sure I was comfortable and relaxed! A bit pricier than I'm used to in DC or NYC, but very much worth it for the entire experience. I'll definitely be returning.
