So I generally like this place. It is clean. It is peaceful. I wish I could make it my regular shop! The reasons why I cannot: -their manicure service is inconsistent. This could probably be remedied by just scheduling with a preferred manicurist though -they don't do builder gel. My nails generally grow longer with builder, which I prefer -the main reason however is the parking! They validate with a garage however it's still 7 dollars, which is too much. The first time I came, I paid 15 or 20 dollars because I parked in the wrong garage Maybe I'll change my mind if I can't find a better, more convenient shop! read more

They've got great techs and the quality of the final look is great but the customer service leaves a little something to be desired. A deposit is required and they're not very flexible, even if seemingly empty/not overbooked. If you're worried about cutting it close to your appointment time (weather, traffic, etc.) I wouldn't recommend, since they weren't accommodating. I had to haggle over my appointment time and still was charged over and above my booking (basically lost my deposit) for being slightly late due to rainy weather. read more

Topcoat - Nail Salons Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

It has become a monthly routine for me to come to Topcoat for my eyebrows and gel X extensions. I can't imagine going anywhere else in the city! I've seen a drastic change in my nail health since becoming a customer of theirs a few years ago. And I've lost count how many times people compliment me on my eyebrow shape. Every one in Topcoat is skilled and knows what they're doing. They have fun with it, the vibe is fun and lighthearted-- but they are about their business so make sure you make an appointment. I wish more nail salons were appointment only because it allows everyone to be in and out on time. read more

Best pedicure I've had in a long time. Salon was clean, calm and relaxing. I got the wellness pedicure with paraffin wax. My technician was Helen. She was gentle but firm. Would definitely go back. read more

I have been client for over two years and these ladies never disappoint. Amy and her staff are always pleasant and professional. Not to mention the salon is always clean and sanitized after each client. I just get a gel manicure and regular pedicure, my polish lasts up to 3 weeks. They do not take walk-ins, so making an appointment is a definite to secure your spot . They also validate parking as well. They still adhere to the mask policy, so make sure you have a mask with you when getting services rendered. These ladies always keep my nails in tip top shape read more

My search for a great nail salon in Baltimore continues... this time I thought I'd give Topcoat a try after hearing great things on Yelp and reading about their non-toxic products. You must make an appointment with Topcoat - no walk ins - and when booking, they ask for a $30 deposit per service that will go towards your total cost. I booked a gel pedicure and gel manicure so my deposit was $60. You can get it back as long as you cancel within 24 hours. Before booking, they also let me know they offer $5 validated parking at the Harbor Park Garage which is great since their shop is right near the busy Power Plant Live area. When I entered, I was pleased with how clean, airy, and bright the shop was. Lots of plants, minimalist decor, and fun music playing. It's a loft style set up with pedicure and manicure stations downstairs and what I'm guessing is lash or waxing services upstairs. Their Covid-19 policies were clearly laid out and they have you sign a quick waiver and take your temperature. This place seems to really be on top of Covid precautions! The pedicure was really amazing - my tech took her time with the massage even though it was just a basic pedicure (many places skip the massage or don't take their time, but my girl was putting in work). The pedicure finished with a hot towel and I was left feeling relaxed and renewed. The gel pedicure was efficient and meticulously done. I have very short nails so she made sure to just file them into shape and not cut them down. I appreciated that since I'm trying to grow them out. She started to put my color on and then asked if I liked it before continuing - I'm glad she asked because what I picked was more shimmery than my preference so she grabbed a different color based on what I described and completely hit the nail on the head. She even finished with a hand massage using Baltimore's very own Mount Royal Soap lotion! Kudos to them for using locally sourced products! The total was $115 ($50 for the manicure and $65 for the pedicure). This is definitely on the pricey end but I'm willing to pay a little extra for great service and results. I've had great experiences at other nail salons but after a week or two, the polish seems to chip or peel and the results just aren't worth the money. My experience at Topcoat was great so now we must wait to see if the results last as long as I hope (2+ weeks would be great). It seems like they use quality products so finger(nails) crossed! read more

I came to Topcoat looking to get my nails done for the summer, and I was honestly blown away by the experience! I love that they're a small, family founded business local to the Baltimore area. But I also love the emphasis they place on using non-toxic products and keeping their clients (and workers) safe! The salon was clean, booking the appointment was easy. Thanh, my nail tech, was so patient with me in my indecision and helped me figure out what design to do- we settled on this geometric design that feels and looks clean. Would recommend this nail salon to anyone in the Baltimore area! read more

I have bn coming to topcoat since they opened around the pandemic. They are consistent and high quality! Than is my favorite but all the ladies do a wonderful job.

Sigh, well I feel bad even writing this, but I left disappointed today. The positive, the shop is nice, big clean and overall very friendly staff. The negative is my art and nail shape/ placement was terrible. My nail tech was very friendly and informed me she was able to do the art no problem. So I didn't want to question the process, I know sometimes getting nails done it can look crazy up to the last coat so I never question the process. I don't have the best eyesight, but once I got in the car, I realized how bad the design was. It's not even close to what I asked for and I didn't feel right asking for a refund or for a discount just because booking online I did agree all sales were final, also your card is on file so I assumed they would just charge me anyways. Overall, just not happy. I had to go somewhere else to have them fix the art. ... I just wish they would've specified that all the nail art online is most likely probably coming from one tech or just be honest you're not able to do the art asked for. ... the pictures below are what I asked for and what I read more

Topcoat - What I asked for - Nail Salons Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

See all

Topcoat is one of the nicest and most expensive salons I have visited. This salon caters to young black millennial women that take their nails very seriously. If you show them a photo to recreate, they will understand the assignment. I was very impressed by the cleanliness and professionalism of the staff. You have to book an appointment to be serviced here. I put down a deposit of $60 for a dip manicure with design and gel pedicure. Deposits are non-refundable if you do not show up. Also, they give you a $5 valet for parking. Once I arrived they took my temperature and I had to sanitize my hands. They took off the gel polish I had on previously and began my pedicure. I am so happy they did that before my pedicure that way I could play on my phone without the foil on my fingertips. The entire experience was relaxing, I enjoyed my conversation with Amy, she is very sweet. The manicure was also relaxing and they take their time to service you. Your appointment can take about 2 hours. Hannah paid close attention to so many details, the only thing that is missing is mimosas and wine. Again this salon is on the pricey side, my total due was $120 after my deposit (not including a tip). So my total payment was just over $200. This price tag is way too much for me to visit monthly, maybe once or twice a year for a special occasion. read more

I wish I lived closer because I would definitely be frequenting Topcoat on a monthly basis! If you're looking for nail designs, Thanh, Amy, and Jennifer are the best at bringing your vision into a reality. I brought in a photo of a design that I liked and Thanh exceeded my expectations. COVID restrictions are in full force here, which gives me great peace of mind! Appointments are required due to the limited indoor capacity. Proper wear and social distancing is enforced throughout the salon. You must have your temperature checked and sanitize your hands when you check-in. The staff also uses gloves for your service and they take the time to sanitize each area after each customer is finished. There's a wide variety of colors in SNS and gel as well as regular polish. Both the manicure and pedicure I received were heavenly and super relaxing. Each nail technician takes their time for each service so you won't feel rushed at all. I would definitely recommend treating yourself here! read more

Topcoat - Nail Salons Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Tried this place out for the first time a couple of months ago. Services paid for: Dip manicure with double French tips. Price breakdown: $65 for dip $35 for design Additional 6% facility fee Validated parking for 2 hours. The studio itself is very clean and spacious. I was there on time for my appointment, but ended up waiting 20 minutes for my nail artist. I was disappointed in that I was kept waiting without an explanation until about 10-15 minutes into my appointment, at which point one of the ladies curtly informed me of the delay on their end. In the end, my nails were done well, but it is unlikely that I will be returning given the cost (over $100) and the less than ideal service I received that day. read more

Came here for some me-time and I feel in love with the space. They had great covid measures, and the place was clean and spacious.

Topcoat - Holiday gel manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I had the pleasure of visiting Topcoat last Saturday (7/31). My time there was nothing short of amazing. The staff here are kind and attentive. They've really created a peaceful atmosphere. First, this place gets booked really fast so it's best to call in advance. I called a week in advance and set my appointment. I had to pay a deposit of $80 to secure my appointment for the gel x manicure. I started off with a pedicure and then got a gel x manicure. The pedicure was great. The person who did it was very nice and took their time. My manicure came out wonderful. The nail tech was great and did the designs exactly like the picture I showed them. My total for everything was $190. Was it worth it? In my opinion no. The only reason I say this is my nails started to lift on day 3. I do not wash dishes or do anything out of the ordinary with my nails and I was very confused because I read that gel x nails are supposed to last much longer than acrylic. Unfortunately, that was not my case. I've only had them for a week as of today and I'm pretty disappointed with how they've held up. I've paid significantly less and they would still look fresh by day 4-5. This place is great and the staff is wonderful but for the price and with how long they've lasted, it's just not worth it. The first picture is day 1. The second picture is day 3. The third picture is today (day 7). read more

I will be back! read more

I have been on the hunt for a new nail salon. I happened to be in Baltimore for a conference and needed my nails & toes done because they looked crazy. I had to make an appointment and make a deposit of $60. Hey, I get it - paying that deposit ensures you show! It goes toward the cost of the services. The salon itself was super chic. The chairs were in great condition and all the stations were clean. Tao, my nail artist was lovely! She made my nails look SO good and did a great job on my pedi. Even though I live in DC, I'd drive 45 min to get a new set! They also validate parking at the New Harbor parking garage! read more

I went to Topcoat for gel extensions and a pedicure after neglecting my nails and feet for a while. It was a great experience. The space is clean and quiet. They carry Zoya polish which I prefer. They validate for 3 hours of parking for $5 which was helpful given the location. I was looking for a spot in Baltimore comparable to my old nail salon in Brooklyn and they didn't disappoint. Will definitely be back to ensure that my nails are back in shape before the end of the summer. read more

I absolutely love this place I have been going to this salon for two months. I'm in healthcare so it's important to me to go to establishments where they are mindful of sanitation, COVID-19 precautions, and overall cleanliness. The ambiance is relaxing and they don't do a rush job. It's an appointments only establishment so it has never been a wait, and they are always accommodating. I am very indecisive, Thanh is always patient and helpful. The staff is small (which are three sisters) makes the experience personable, and relaxing. My manicures/dip powder service always looks natural and I get tons of compliments and pedicure is relaxing (I love hot stone). Location is safe, street parking, and they validate parking at designated deck for $5.00 (a block behind the building). You won't regret going to this salon! read more

Topcoat - Three week old dip powder/ombré manicure...and my nails still look good! Thanks Thanh - Nail Salons Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Found this place after enjoying brunch at Miss Shirley's and let me say...bravo girls! The design of the salon is visually pleasing and the ambience is light and airy. It is very clean, organized AND does not reek of the traditional "nail shop smell". They are technically by appointment only, but I took a chance. I asked if they had any openings coming up soon and fortunately they were able to get me in. I'm glad I waited. Amy was so kind and meticulous, which I appreciated. She cleaned and shaped my neglected "COVID nails" and didn't rush my service. To top it off, she did the most perfect nail painting I've witness in a long time. You can tell she genuinely enjoys what she does and takes pride in her work. Thank you Amy for such a wonderful experience! read more

Topcoat - Beautiful exterior front of the store! - Nail Salons Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I found out about this place because my friend posted a picture on IG of her nails and tagged Topcoat. They looked so good. Fast forward after a stressful week, I took the day off of work and my fiancé sent me to get a pedicure. I went to my regular salon, but was turned away because I didn't have an appointment. BEST rejection ever. Lol I ended up coming here. Even though I didn't have an appointment she let me get serviced because it was a slow day. Guys, it's so beautiful and relaxing in there. Cleanliness, organization, ambiance and service are all very important to me. 1. COVID restrictions are in full practice here. You must sanitize your hands and get a temperature check before being serviced. There is limited capacity and social distancing enforced. Guests and staff are all wearing masks and all staff are wearing gloves. Chairs and work stations are sanitized after every guest. 2. I can't stress enough about the cleanliness. All new materials were used to perform my pedicure. 3. Again, this place is beautifully decorated with lots of plants (which I love). The service is awesome. Amy did my pedi (and did really well). She offered me water and we had really good conversations about basically everything. Lol 4. All of the products they use are organic/non toxic which is awesome. It's been a few days and my feet and nails are still looking good, so the products are good quality. I am now going to be a regular at Topcoat. read more

Let me start off by saying that I NEVER get my nails done because I like doing them myself because I get bored and change the color every week lol, but when I heard Topcoat opening and specialized in organic, natural, non-toxic ingredients in their products I had to give it a try! I drove all the way from the NoVa area and it was 100% worth the trip! Location is great, right in the Inner Harbor so I came early for my appointment to walk around, grabbed delicious seafood, and sat by the water. Interior is so spacious, modern, chic, and relaxing. Anyway, it was my first time getting a dip powder manicure and it was such a fun and cool process! Jennifer was very accommodating and understanding of my indecisiveness and never made me feel rushed. After spending so much time going back and forth between what nail color and designs to get, she was able to incorporate all my ideas and I LOVE the result! My nails are so strong and I can see them lasting even longer than the estimated 3 week time. I've been getting so many compliments on my manicure and I'm seriously so obsessed! My friend got a gel pedicure with Amy and she loved her experience as well. They are also taking all the necessary precautions during Covid. I felt very safe here. The workers are all so friendly and know great customer service. Like I said, I never get my nails done but honestly after my experience at Topcoat I'll definitely be coming back and might be making it a regular thing now! read more

Still amazing, still my favorite spot. I came here with three friends this past Saturday and they were buuuusssy. But the great thing is that even when they are scheduled back to back I never feel rushed. This time around I got the cbd pedicure and it was the most delightful. It's about a 70-80 minutes of bliss complete with the cbd bath bomb and a leg rub down with more cbd lotion. My legs were tingly and feeling so relaxed after those 80 minutes. I've already scheduled my return appointment cause now that we're vaccinated my feet with definitely be out this summer.

The staffs were well trained! They shared with me all the nontoxic ingredients they use, the mission behind the salon, and walked me through the services I booked and what's included. I chose to pamper myself with the dipping powder mani and got the Wellness pedi. The result was wonderful as shown in my pic! I've been in DMV for many years and have never settled on a salon, but I can finally say Topcoat is by far the only salon that have won my heart. I'll be a forever customer!!! TIP: you can get your parking validated at the salon for $5 for 3 hrs if you park at the Harbor Park Garage on 55 Market Place. read more

This is not your mothers nail salon or in case of these four there parents nail salon. Place more of a high end spa as has upstairs area that I assume they do the waxing. Keeping things to 50 percent occupancy along with tall ceilings make it fairly safe especially as do not take walk ins. Their online appointment system was easy to use. If making for two people do one at a time. Pedicure and manicure were good though they did miss doing the callous removal for me.

Topcoat - dipping powder with tips! - Nail Salons Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I found Topcoat on Yelp after doing some digging to try and find an open salon amongst Covid closures. They just opened downtown 3 weeks ago and are taking safety measures seriously. No walk-ins at the moment, but it was simple to make a next day appointment online. The salon itself is very modern, clean, and classy. The ladies are really amazing and funny, which is nice as I normally go get my nails done alone. It opens up the opportunity for conversation with the nail artist. I can't remember my artist's name (she is from VA) but I loved her. I came in with a picture and described what I wanted and she took her time and did beautiful work. I got an Ombré dip with coffin shaping and it ended up being around $73 with the 10% discount they are running (tip not included). If you park in the Harborplace garage right behind the building you can ask for a voucher at the end which will discount your parking cost. I'll be returning to try out the other services, I'm in need of a pedicure. read more

I had the most amazing experience at Topcoat this evening. FYI, they are appointment ONLY! So call ahead and book your appointment!! Amy I believe is the manager/owner greeted me first. She was very nice and even texted me before my appointment to confirm and let me know they were running a little behind. VERY GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE! Hannah was my nail tech. I'm always used to two different techs doing my mani and pedi but Hannah did everything (pedi and dip nails with tips). And she did everything well. I'm only here in Baltimore for a few months and I'm so happy to have found a salon that's clean, friendly staff and COVID friendly! Thanks again Hannah! read more

Topcoat - Dipped Nails w/ Tips and Design - Nail Salons Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Topcoat!! I've followed them on Instagram since they opened and have been dying to check them out. I finally went early on a Friday morning and I'm in love! First of all, the salon is gorgeous. Very clean and organized with tall windows for a bright airy feel and a great view of the marina. Great music and vibe as well. You can easily spend hours here and get pampered. They are also very serious about their covid protocol, which I appreciated. They clean in front of you to prep the stations, take temperatures and require sanitized hands upon entry, as well as a covid disclaimer form to be signed. On to the good stuff --That has got to be the most luxurious pedicure I have ever had in my life! Omg. WELL worth the money, and reasonably priced in my opinion. I did the organic pedicure with Cici and she was just fantastic. Cici really took her time on the massage and exfoliation which I feel is usually glossed over at other salons I've been to. At Topcoat with Cici, this was done very patiently and thoroughly. I was super impressed with the time she spent on me as a client--it was so incredibly relaxing! My skin and feet are sooo soft and moisturized, still! My gel mani was also done meticulously and it felt like I was Cici's only client for the day. Granted it was a Friday morning so it probably gets busier, but I appreciate the time she took to give me the perfect mani/pedi and overall experience. I will most definitely be back, and maybe at a busier time to see if their service holds up! But with design and customer service, Topcoat blew me away. Very much looking forward to a return visit!! read more
