Ruby Nails (CLOSED)

Don’t expect to be dazzled by zen rock gardens or gurgling fountains at this humble, cash-only salon—the appeal is in the product and not the frills. The employees here are well-versed in the art of nail embellishment, so rest assured, your hands are in good, er, hands. The $10 manicure runs circles around others in the neighborhood that charge $15 or higher, and while you might want to bring along your own color (the selection isn’t always up to par), you won’t be disappointed by its application.
