  • Atelier Anaiis is located in Old City. The address to our calm, greenery-filled nail salon is 122 N 3rd Street, Philadelphia, PA 19106.

  • We started Atelier Anaiis after a decade plus of healing clients’ natural nails from the damage caused by thirty minute manicures they’d been receiving elsewhere for years. The value that we provide through our work at Atelier Anaiis is centered around the healthiest possible manicure practices that prioritize the preservation and restoration of clients’ natural nails. This is done primarily through the service we call Deep Clean Manicure and meticulous preparation of the nails prior to the application of gel polish. To do these two aspects of our manicure carefully and up to the standards that we set so that our clients’ natural nails can heal, we require the time that we specify for every appointment.

  • We are by appointment only, except on Fridays and select Saturdays when we open our doors for walk-in appointments - please note that walk-in appointments are limited to Deep Clean Manicure and Structured Gel Manicure services only. While we understand that this could be frustrating if you happen to be in Old City just for the day or have a nail emergency, our number one priority is our clients’ nail health - being by-appointment-only allows us to be best prepared, so that you can get the most out of our services.

  • At this time, we do not provide pedicure services for new clients.

  • We exclusively use gel nail polish, creating an environment free of toxic fumes. We do not carry regular nail polish, acrylic powders, or dip powder. To learn more about why, we invite you to read our blog post, The Protective Power of Gel: Why Our Old City Nail Salon Chooses Gel Polish Only.
