An Thuong Nail Salon Guide for Visitors

Staying in An Thuong

An Thuong is a compact neighbourhood in Da Nang where many visitors stay, eat, and walk between shops and cafes, so a nail appointment fits easily into a day that already includes the beach and dinner nearby. LENA Nails & Beauty (our salon) in An Thuong is at 34 An Thuong 3, open daily from 8:30 to 20:30, and staff speak English and Vietnamese.

Because the area is easy to explore on foot, you can visit before lunch, between sightseeing stops, or in the evening, but gel and nail art are taken until about one hour before closing, so an evening visit needs a little planning. Walk-ins are welcome, and a short WhatsApp message to +84 799 144 968 lets you ask for a time that suits your plans.

What to check before you book

Before you book anywhere in An Thuong, ask what kit you will get and how metal tools are handled, because these two answers tell you more than a photo of a pretty room. A clear answer should name the kit items, explain that metal tools are cleaned in several steps after each guest, and confirm that a fresh basin liner is used for pedicures. If an answer is vague, keep asking until it is clear.

At LENA (our salon), each guest gets a fresh single-use kit with four items: a nail file, a buffer, a heel scrubber, and a toe separator, and the kit is new for every guest. Metal tools are soaked, scrubbed, and cleaned in several steps after each guest, then kept in a separate pouch in a UV cabinet until the pouch is opened in front of you. The UV cabinet supports disinfection on surfaces directly exposed to UV.

LENA (our salon) in An Thuong — 34 An Thuong 3

LENA (our salon) in An Thuong is at 34 An Thuong 3, open daily from 8:30 to 20:30, with gel and nail art taken until about one hour before closing. Staff speak English and Vietnamese, and you can bring a reference photo of the look you want, which helps when words alone do not describe a colour or shape clearly. Walk-ins are welcome, and a WhatsApp message lets you ask for a time before you come.

For pedicures, a fresh basin liner is used for each guest, gloves are worn for foot services, and gloves are worn for hand services when a guest asks for them. A heated cabinet is used only to warm towels, reaching up to 80°C, and it is not described as anything more than that. Waxing is also available at all 3 salons, done by female technicians, and you can ask the team on WhatsApp for details.

Payment at the salon is by cash, card, or QR bank transfer, and card payments have a 4% surcharge, so it helps to decide how you will pay before you arrive. Tip is not required, and no extra charge should be assumed beyond what the team confirms for your service. If anything about payment is unclear, ask on WhatsApp before your visit so there are no surprises at the counter.

Short-stay tips

If you are only in Da Nang for a short stay, plan your nails early in the trip so a repair, if needed, still falls inside your time in the city. If your gel lifts, cracks or chips because of a technical fault within 7 days, we repair it free of charge at any of our 3 branches. Impact damage is not included. You do not need to return to the same branch, so any of the 3 branches can help while you are still in Da Nang.

Before you fly home, check your nails in daylight and note anything that looks lifted or chipped, then message the team on WhatsApp while you are still in Da Nang so they can advise you on a time to come in. Bring a photo of the issue if you have one, and tell the team which branch you visited and which service you had. That detail helps the team prepare before you arrive.
