    The place is very cozy, clean and quiet. Sarah did a great job on my nails. The reason why I gave 3 stars is, the nail polish quality is poor, it got too much bubbles and look very rough.

    Varnish Lane (all locations) is my favorite nail studio in DC! They consistently do excellent work, and I love the waterless service process! Feels so much more sterile than traditional nail treatments. I can’t say enough great things about this place/experience!

    What a blissful experience. The atmosphere is beautiful and the service was excellent. My tech, Sharada, did a perfect job on my fingers. She tried ten colors on me until we got the best one! Above and beyond. Very happy and will return. Recommend.
