If you’re searching for acrylic nails in Houston, one of the first questions you’ll probably have is: How much should I expect to pay?
The answer depends on the type of acrylic service you choose, the finish you want, and whether you’re getting a new set or a fill. At Uptown Galleria Nails & Spa, customers in the Houston Galleria and Uptown area can choose from several acrylic styles, including French, Ombre, gel, regular polish, and Color Powder.
Here’s a breakdown of the current acrylic pricing so you can understand what to expect before booking your appointment.
Acrylic Nail Prices in Houston
Acrylic services don’t all cost the same because each style requires a different type of finish and service.
French Deep Smile — $75 | Fill $65
If you want a more defined French look with a deeper smile line, the French Deep Smile service is currently $75, with fills starting at $65.
This option is suited to customers who specifically want a more noticeable French-style finish rather than a basic single-color acrylic manicure.
French Classic with Pink Base — $60 | Fill $50
For a traditional French appearance, the French Classic with pink base is $60, while a fill is $50.
This gives you the familiar French look with a pink base and contrasting tips, making it an option for customers who prefer a more classic nail style.
Acrylic Ombre — $65 | Fill $45–$55
An Acrylic Ombre service is currently $65, with fills ranging from $45 to $55.
Ombre creates a gradual transition between shades instead of the defined line of a traditional French manicure. If you’re looking for something softer and more blended, this is one of the acrylic options available.
Acrylic with Gel — $55 | Fill $50
If you prefer gel polish with your acrylic service, Acrylic with Gel is $55, with a $50 fill.
This is an option for customers who want their acrylic service finished with gel rather than regular polish.
Acrylic with Regular Polish — $50 | Fill $45
For a more straightforward acrylic service, Acrylic with Regular Polish is currently $50, with fills at $45.
The salon notes that regular polish is a less common choice compared with some of the other available finishes, but it remains an option on the acrylic menu.
Color Powder — $50 | Fill $40–$45
Color Powder is $50, with fills ranging from $40 to $45.
This option gives you a way to choose a colored powder finish as part of your acrylic service rather than adding regular polish afterward.
New Set vs. Fill: What’s the Difference?
When comparing acrylic prices, you’ll notice that the salon lists both new-set pricing and fill pricing.
A new acrylic service is generally what you’ll look at when you’re getting a new set. A fill is a maintenance service for an existing acrylic set.
Because the prices vary by style, it’s useful to know which service you’re actually booking before comparing prices.
For example, the current menu lists Acrylic with Gel at $55, while the fill is $50. Acrylic Ombre is $65, while the fill ranges from $45–$55.
Can Additional Charges Apply?
The listed prices are starting prices for the specified acrylic services. Your final cost can be different if you request additional services.
Additional charges may apply for things such as:
- Removal
- Tips or extensions
- Added length
- Specialty shapes
- French
- Nail art
- Repairs
- Other additional work
That’s particularly important if you have a specific nail design or shape in mind. A service that starts at one price may require additional work depending on what you request.
For that reason, it’s a good idea to confirm your requested service and estimated total with your technician before the service begins.
Which Acrylic Service Is Right for You?
The best place to start is with the look you want.
If you prefer a classic French appearance, the French Classic with pink base is an option. Want a more defined French smile? Consider the French Deep Smile. For a blended finish, there’s Acrylic Ombre. If you want gel polish, you can choose Acrylic with Gel. And if you prefer a colored powder finish, Color Powder is available.
So, how much do acrylic nails cost in Houston?
At Uptown Galleria Nails & Spa, current acrylic options range from $50 for Acrylic with Regular Polish or Color Powder to $75 for French Deep Smile, before any applicable additional charges. Fill pricing ranges from $40 to $65, depending on the service.
If you’re near Houston Galleria, Uptown, or River Oaks, review the acrylic option that matches the look you’re after and confirm the final service and pricing with your technician before your appointment.
