The Nail Pope - Richmond (CA)

5 /5 Lorena Hoogsteden: I’ve been getting my nails done by Deanna for 6 months now, and hands down (see what I did there...) I will not trust anyone else with my nails. She’s not a nail tech, she’s an artist. Absolutely brilliant. On top of that, Deanna’s super precise with her gel application, so my manicures have lasted up to 5 weeks, and I’m pretty rough of my hands. I’ve never experienced any chipping or lifting, and my natural nails have gotten so much stronger and healthier. Bonus points, Deanna is one of the coolest humans I’ve ever met, and she’s a blast to hang with.

5 /5 Miss Aspen: Deanna is the BEST! She takes her time and cares for the health of your nails, nothing compares. Once you go here you’ll never want to go to those quick chop shops again. I’ve never had natural nails as long or as strong since I’ve been with her.

5 /5 Katherine Vander Tuig: Great!!!

5 /5 Kathryn Post: Cannot say enough how much I recommend Deanna! Her shop is super clean, has great music, and she offers coffee/tea/etc while you get your nails done. She is meticulous and while the prices are higher than your average shop, it is totally worth it! I see a huge difference in my nail game - not only are they longer and stronger than ever, but Deanna always has a variety of colors, charms, foils, and other cool nail art to choose. She does hand painting of florals, designs, characters, etc. I wont go anywhere else! The owner is so nice and offers great conversation - you feel like an old friend coming in rather than a client. She puts you at ease and is able to make a 3 hour appointment fly by. Plus, her manicures LAST. Ive had my manicure last 5 weeks with no chips, lifting, or need for a color fill. Pretty amazing!
