Nails Done with Care
Nail Theory is Vancouver's welcoming nail salon for manicures, pedicures, and thoughtful nail care done right.
About
We are Nail Theory, a nail salon tucked inside Citizen Salon on Mainland Street in the heart of Vancouver. Our space is clean, welcoming, and designed to make every visit feel like a step away from the rush of the day. From a classic polish change to detailed nail art, we give each set of nails the focused attention it deserves.
Our technicians take pride in attentive, careful work and a friendly chair-side manner that keeps clients coming back. Whether you are treating yourself or preparing for a special occasion, we are open Tuesday through Sunday to fit your week.

Treatments
We offer a range of nail care services to suit whatever you need, from a quick refresh to a full set. Here is a look at what we do.
We shape, buff, and polish your nails with care, leaving your hands looking clean and finished. It's a simple, satisfying treatment that makes a real difference.
We take care of your feet from start to finish, softening skin, tidying cuticles, and finishing with a colour you love. Walk out feeling genuinely refreshed.
Our gel services deliver a glossy, chip-resistant finish that holds up through the week. We cure each coat carefully for a smooth, long-lasting result.
We build and shape acrylics to the length and style that suits you, then finish them to a clean, even edge. A strong foundation for whatever look you have in mind.
From understated details to something more expressive, we bring your nail art ideas to life with a steady hand and an eye for the design you're after.
A quick refresh of colour when you're ready for something new. We prep the nail surface properly so your chosen shade goes on smooth and true.
