Great Falls Nails and Spa officially re-opened under their new name with a party Saturday, Sept. 14. Formerly known as Glamour Nails and Spa, the owners decided to change the name to reflect their commitment to the community.

“We wanted the name change to reflect our connection to our customers in Great Falls, we offer facilities that people often have to travel to Tysons Corner and beyond to get, but right here in Great Falls,” said Kim Tran, one of the owners. “We wanted people to know we are committed to being a local business, we pride ourselves on getting to know our clients and what they like.”

The first floor of the salon, which is located just north of the Georgetown Pike-Walker Road intersection, contains standard manicure, pedicure and other services.

The new second level offers massage, facials and spa-style manicures and pedicures, and features a staff masseuse and aesthetician.

Kristin Morgan has been a client of the salon since they opened two years ago, and can attest firsthand to their connection with their clients.

“Every time I come, everyone knows my name, and I’m not the only one. Everyone who walks in seems to be a regular, the employees all know them and what they’re here for,” she said. “Plus, they know how to throw a great party.”

The party Saturday included gift card giveaways for those who attended, as well as an appearance by Xtreme Game Experience, a 44-foot trailer with televisions inside and out, containing multiple Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo game consoles.

Great Falls Nails and Spa is located at 731 Walker Road, Suite H1. They can be found on Facebook and at www.greatfallsspa.com.
