Hand Jive

Nouvelle Nail Salon

Welcome back to Wheel of Nail Salons, the treatment game where you’re too desperate to leave and too grossed out to ever, ever return!

Today’s contestant is a lovely new spot hailing from West Midtown by the name of Nouvelle, opening today.

She aced the What’s That Floating in My Foot Bath? round. And not with $5 add-on mystery goo! Those are fresh lemongrass stalks and peppermint leaves.

Let’s pan over the skylit, stone manicure bar and zoom in on the pedicure gallery, where chilled scented eye compresses, organic polishes, and zero-gravity chairs are the name of the game. And — wait — what’s that we smell? Why, it’s nothing at all, courtesy of soaring ceilings and hidden air purifiers!

Stay tuned! We’ll be back for bonus rounds of waxing, hot stone massage, and sea salt scrubs.

Looks like we’ve found a winner.

Nouvelle, 1011 Marietta Street, suite b, West Midtown (404-835-7839).
