Services
Click any service for the price, the time it takes, what's included, and the questions our clients ask most.
Dip powder gives you the strength of acrylic and the shine of gel — without the harsh smell or the lamp time. It's our most-requested service, and it's why most of our clients keep coming back.
See detailsA gel manicure is the answer when you want polish that looks salon-fresh on day fourteen. Cured under LED light, sealed in seconds, no smudges in the parking lot.
See detailsFive tiers of foot care, from a tidy maintenance pedicure to a 70-minute relief experience. All performed in our heated massage chairs with fresh single-use liners and tools sterilized to medical-grade.
See detailsThe basics, done right. Soak, shape, cuticle care, hand massage, polish — every step, every time, no shortcuts.
See detailsWhen you want length, structure, and a shape that holds — acrylic is still the workhorse. We sculpt; we don't just glue.

Family-owned
Jenny and Tony opened the shop in 2001 and never stopped working the floor. The team is small and steady — most of our techs have been with us a decade or more — so the person doing your nails knows you, and gets better at it every visit.
Our regulars stay because the work is consistent. Same shape, same prep, same clean tools, every time. No surprise pricing. No rushed cuticles.
We ask before we start
Length, shape, color, anything that bothered you about a previous set — we want to know.
Healthy nail standards
Tools autoclave-sterilized between every client. Removal by soak — never scraped or peeled.
Standards we don't skip
Texas requires every nail salon to follow TDLR cosmetology rules. Most do the minimum. Here's what we've done every shift since 2001 — in plain English.
Sterilization
Cuticle nippers, pushers, and clippers run through a steam autoclave between every client and stay in sealed pouches until your service starts. Wiping with disinfectant — what most salons do — does not kill bacterial spores. Autoclave does.
Disposables
Pedicure liners, files, buffers, and orange-wood sticks are new for every client and discarded in front of you. We don't reuse the things you can see — and we don't reuse the things you can't.
Removal
Gel, dip, and acrylic come off in 100% acetone soak time. It takes 10–15 minutes longer than prying with a metal pusher, and that's the point: your natural nail plate stays intact. If a salon is fast on removal, that's a red flag.
Texas Cosmetology Salon Establishment License on display at the front desk. Owners on the floor every shift since 2001 — same hands, same standards, every visit.
Reading room
Short guides written by the owners — what to expect from a service, how long it lasts, and how to pick the right one for your nails.

I love the two owners. They have been doing my nails for the past year. The whole staff treats me extremely well. I always get what I asked for, they are always honest about their work. My sets just progressively get more beautiful. The pricing will never beat anyone else I've heard of, especially with designs and how intricate the designs I want are.

I started coming here because of a close friend's recommendation, and I'm so glad I did. The service never fails — every visit feels just as amazing as the last. The staff are genuinely some of the kindest and most caring people I've ever met. They always go above and beyond to make sure I'm comfortable and happy with the results.

Love getting my nails done here, and I have throughout the years on and off. I've been coming since 2010, and they always remember me, my family etc. Consider trying them out, and support a small family-owned business!

I've been coming to T&J for 20 years! They never disappoint. Their customer service is top notch and their work is phenomenal. They're the only place in Katy I trust to do my nails. Their work is consistent and I never leave disappointed.
