Nail Design

Nail Design is a nail salon located at 1689 Mt Hope Ave in the Upper Mount Hope neighborhood of Rochester, NY. Open Monday through Saturday from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM, the salon accepts both walk-ins and appointments. Nail Design operates from a shopping plaza in a mixed commercial stretch of Mount Hope Avenue, not far from the University of Rochester Medical Center and the Highland Park area.

Nail Design provides a range of nail care and spa services organized across several categories:

• Nail enhancements — acrylic full sets and fill-ins, pink and white applications, gel color services, and sparkle powder treatments
• Manicures — standard, gel, and combo manicure-pedicure packages
• Pedicures — regular, spa deluxe, VIP luxury, and gel pedicure options
• Specialty nail shapes — pointed, coffin, flare, hump, and extended-length styles available as add-ons
• Finishing touches — French tips, matte finishes, mood gel colors, custom nail art, gel removal, and nail repair
• Waxing — eyebrow, lip, chin, and lower leg services

The salon accepts credit cards, debit cards, and NFC mobile payments. The entrance and parking lot are wheelchair accessible.

Nail Design has built its identity around offering a wide selection of nail shapes and finishing options that go beyond standard salon fare. The coffin, flare, and hump nail shapes — along with specialty finishes like mood-changing gel and matte topcoats — give clients a level of customization not always found at neighborhood salons. The business also emphasizes sanitation practices, with staff trained to follow a defined sanitization protocol between clients.

Nail Design sits in a small shopping plaza at 1689 Mt Hope Ave, part of a commercial cluster that includes a Family Dollar, restaurants, and other service businesses. The plaza offers front-door parking. The Upper Mount Hope neighborhood runs along Route 15 on Rochester's south side, anchored by the University of Rochester campus and Medical Center nearby. Highland Park and the historic Mount Hope Cemetery are both a short drive north along the avenue, making this stretch of Mt Hope Ave a well-trafficked corridor for both residents and university-affiliated visitors.
