GLOSSLAB recently opened in my Washington, DC neighborhood. I’d previously heard about GLOSSLAB from a few NYC influencers I follow on Instagram, but hadn’t tried the service until I was invited as an ambassador.

GLOSSLAB prides itself on being the modernized manicure. They are hygiene first, waterless and efficient, and membership-based. They are also woman-founded, which I love.

I first tried the gel pedicure because I’m usually an acrylic girly. I was so happy with the pedicure that I switched from tips to a gel manicure with my natural nails. So I’m officially a GLOSSLAB believer.

A few things I love about GLOSSLAB:

The entire process is easy and efficient (perfect for the gal on the go)
Services take less than an hour
The staff is friendly (not always my experience with other nail salons in DC)
Completely waterless. No tub or water is used. I love this because I usually have a spray tan. They do cleanse, moisturize, and scrub.
Gratuity is added into your total cost. A pro because it minimizes the decision making process.
Everything is aesthetically pleasing. The pedicure chairs are comfortable and practical. A pop playlist plays the entire time. Winning.

A few pro tips before visiting GLOSSLAB:

I recommend booking online versus walking in. GLOSSLAB is new to DC so there’s a limited amount of staff.
If you have hard gel or anything other than the GLOSSLAB gel on your nails, you need to get it taken off at another salon.
GLOSSLAB uses their own products.
I recommend the membership. It’s definitely the best bang for your buck.
