The Square Nail Studio

Boutique Nail Salon in Davis Square

The Square Nail Studio in Somerville is a funky boutique style nail salon located in the heart of Davis Square, across from the redline T. This Davis Square nail salon specializes in natural nail care in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

Heather, owner of The Square Nail Studio and nail technician, has worked in the salon industry for almost twenty years. Working in mostly modern salons, Heather dreamed of copper pedicure tubs, wood tables, mismatched chairs and fabrics, and lots of pillows - through The Square Nail Studio, that is exaclty what Heather created.


In the summer of 2002, Heather opened the Square Nail Studio in Davis Square, Somerville. Not your average nail salon, The Square Nail is more fitting to it's size; a studio. Rustic atmosphere, comfy chairs, great music, candles and really great company await you. Here's what Heather has to say about her location in Davis Square.

"I found that the people in Boston and more specifically in Davis
Square are some of the nicest, most down-to-earth, artistic and
wonderful people I have ever had the pleasure to meet. The square,
its business and residents have responded so well to the studio and
I grin every time someone comments on how cute it is, or how nice it
smells or my favorite, "that was the best manicure i've ever had!" I
meet the best folks every day and often times I feel that it wasn't just
me waiting for them. Sometimes I think they were waiting for me too.
Thank you Davis."
