Our Story
Gloss Nails Dublin is a fresh addition to Dublin's nail scene.
We specialise in bespoke hand painted, artistic manicures using
only the highest quality nail polish & materials. New for 2024, we are proud to announce that luxury spa pedicures are also now available.
2020
Founded by creative director Aaron Daly, Gloss Nails was launched specifically with the growing urban nail trend in mind. We proudly opened our doors on Windmill Road, Crumlin in March 2020. The salon took inspiration from some of the hottest nail trends emerging in the UK, U.S.A. & Europe & infused them with the signature warmth & friendly client service unique to Ireland. Before opening, Aaron trained with some of the world’s top nail artists & the salon has quickly gained popularity.
2021
COVID-19 presented lots of challenges, but the salon continued to thrive and Aaron began to look to the future on what Gloss Nails could become once businesses around the world could re-open safely.
2022
As businesses began to return to full-strength and Gloss Nails could welcome everyone back to the salon, Aaron was delighted to launch Gloss Nails Academy - accredited in-person training courses providing budding beauty therapists with the training they need to succeed in top salons.
2023
Gloss Nails Academy courses continued to expand and by 2023 offered accredited courses in Builder Base and Acrylic Nails, and masterclasses in Nail Art.
Gloss Nails had also grown significantly online with social influencers looking for funky, on-trend designs. The team began to quickly expand, and it was time for an upgraded salon experience.
2024
In March 2024, 4 years after opening the original salon - Gloss Nails Dublin reopened after significant renovation and investment. The salon now boasts a large, experienced team of nail technicians and includes a wide variety of services including luxury pedicures. GLOSS Nails prides itself on being a queer owned, inclusive nail salon that champions diversity & celebrates self-expression, we cater to all & guarantee that anyone who chooses Gloss Nails for their manicure will be treated with the care & respect they deserve.
