The 8 best nail salons in Amsterdam for your monthly gel polish and more

The best nail salons in Amsterdam? You'll find them all over the city. But not all nail salons are the same, so you need to know where to go before booking your monthly manicure. Therefore: the ultimate Your Little Black Book list of the best nail salons in Amsterdam. You're welcome.

8 of the Best Nail Salons in Amsterdam

Paintwork

For us, Lakwerk is and will always be the OG in gel polish. They single-handedly brought the nail art trend to our country, with their salons that always had a waiting list. Now, they have two locations and a large team of trained nail artists (including some who have since opened their own salons), so there's almost always room at short notice. From BIAB treatments for stronger nails to a quick manicure, pedicure, and everything in between: Lakwerk is the place to be for everything nail-related.

Glazed

Founder Daniël van Glazed is well-known both nationally and internationally. He's painted the nails of countless top models, celebrities, and other well-known figures at photoshoots and events. And that's understandable: not only his work, but that of all the other nail stylists at Glazed is an art in itself.

Classic Care Amsterdam

Classic Care Amsterdam in West is the perfect destination for all your hair, nail, and beauty needs. Few places offer such meticulous care. The Dry Russian Mani is a favorite among many. Want to go all out at the car wash? Book a facial at the same time.

Deninie

Trained at Lakwerk and quickly making a name for herself in Amsterdam, the creative mind and nail stylist behind Deninie was determined to open her own salon. And so she did. For a few years now, Deninie has been located on Vijzelgracht and it's been a busy place. You can go there for classic color, a French tip, or the most exuberant nail art.

It's a Beauty Affair

At It's A Beauty Affair on Van Woustraat, you can not only get your nails done, but also your eyebrows and eyelashes, facials, and even leave with a fresh new haircut. It's great to have everything under one roof. You get the idea: this is the place to be for all your treatments, and you'll even be going through the "car wash."

Come with me to get breakfast in Taipei 🥢 Straight from the airport to this little spot to taste soup dumplings and so much more! That's what I call a soft landing 😉
Just back from Catalonia and I thought: I'll share some tips right away. During our road trip, we stayed two nights in the Ebro Delta. An incredibly fun stop for families and foodies alike, where there is plenty to do. · A boat trip to the Musclarium is a must! Here you eat oysters and mussels straight from the farm, in the middle of the sea. · Admire the flamingos and black ibises that can be found here all year round. · Rice is grown in the Ebro Delta all year round. For paella, but Kensho also makes sake and miso from it! You can visit them during a tasting. · Cycling along the rice fields, canoeing on the Ebro River, and visiting various beaches. It was still a bit too cold now, but there is plenty to do. · The towns are very low-key and not that exciting, but you can find fantastic local food there. From the Michelin-awarded Les Moles* to local eateries like Vermuteria Bonmarisc and Lo Tinglado. We ate a lot of fish, but also anemone fritters (a first!). Now back to work, and I’m going to create an extensive travel guide of this road trip through Catalonia, but you’ll want to save these tips for a future adventure. ✖️✖️✖️ 🖊️ @anne_de_buck { In this post, I share tips for the Ebro Delta in Spain (Delta de l'Ebre).

This is your ticket to Japan without taking a plane 🥢 @tewatashi.ams in De Pijp serves an authentic Edo-Mae Sushi Experience and is super consistent in their quality. It's the place we keep going back to when we have something to celebrate <3. In this video I'm sharing the 2 hour experience in 60 seconds. Still dreaming about the buttery ika nigiri. 🤤 ✖️✖️✖️ 🖊️ @anne_de_buck { one of the best authentic Japanese restaurants in Amsterdam serving premium sushi omakase in De Pijp }
𝗔 𝗯𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗰𝗮𝗳𝗲́ 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝗺𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗮𝗺 𝗖𝗶𝘁𝘆? @eetcafe_de_reiger is the spot to remember. Cozy, casual, and a seasonal menu. This one was on my list to share for a year and finally it's (almost) asparagus season again! 🤤 Another plus? Prices are very reasonable here! 📍 Eetcafé de Reiger Jordaan, Amsterdam City Center Save this spot for when you're craving warm Dutch traditional dishes in the heart of Amsterdam. And did you hear the same team took over Eetcafé van Beeren? I can't wait to go there too! ✖️✖️✖️ 🖊️ @anne_de_buck
A grandma's cookbook. Three Michelin stars. And a beautiful 70s villa in a quiet neighborhood in Bangkok, where you are welcomed as if you were at the chefs' home. The Sühring brothers don't cook based on trends; they cook based on memories. Of their grandmother's farm, of the flavors of their youth in Germany, and of techniques passed down through generations. @relaischateaux invited me to experience Sühring during a solo lunch, and this is truly my ultimate definition of culinary self-care. This was a surprising afternoon in Bangkok, where I ate the best German food I have ever tasted. And that in a city where I normally avoid European restaurants. Well, for @restaurant_suhring, you really want to make that exception. Signature dishes that I still think back to regularly? 🍴 Labskaus with caviar 🍴 Enleta waffle with Pfalz vinegar 🍴 Game pâté 🍴 Dry-aged Duck TIP: When you go to Sühring, reserve seats at the kitchen bar so you have a view of the chefs at work! Follow @yourlbb for more tips you can trust. ✖️✖️✖️ 🖊️ @anne_de_buck #prinvited #bangkok #michelin #relaischateaux In this reels, I take you along for fine dining in Bangkok at the three-Michelin-starred restaurant Sühring.
