Paige F Lana was amazing! She was super sweet and absolutely killed it with these nails! I would 100% recommend her and this nail bar to anyone and everyone :)
EDIT: I went back again today and left with this beautiful chrome set done by Amy! She was amazing and really took her time to make sure everything looked perfect (she also can take some killer pictures!) Dorado Nail Bar is the best place to get your nails done in Houston!

Vi Dimm I went to Dorado Nail Bar the day after Christmas for a new set of Gel X. Upon entering the shop, I was welcomed and asked to sign in. My first thought was “This place is fancy!”. The shop is pretty spacious, there were chandeliers, Christmas decorations, marble tile floor. All the stations are well kept and clean.
I got seated right away, my nail tech began to remove the existing design I had on (also Gel X). Note: there is a removal fee for gel. After the removal process of finished, I showed her the design I wanted, she assured that she can do it. We began the nail prep process, which was very efficient - she is definitely a pro! Note: there is a fee for cuticle care. I really appreciate her helping me pick out the colors and offering her opinion on what the colors will look like on real nails. She then carefully picked out the Gel X extension for each nail and applied them. 2 of them are a little crooked but this is a known issue with my nail beds, usually a nail tech would need to pay really close attention to get it aligned perfectly.
The design part took the longest (as expected). She did a great job, took my feedback and brought it to life. It didn’t turn out exactly like the inspiration, but the result was beautiful. I have received so many compliments in my nails! It has been 5 1/2 weeks, they are still holding strong - none is lifted, only minor chips from me being rough on them.
Overall, I had a lovely experience at Dorado. There are a couple fees here and there, like extra for gold flakes, cuticle cut, existing design removal, coffin shape that bring up the total. Keep that in mind if you’re looking to do designs. I felt that the extra fee for coffin shape could be waived since the Gel X extension is already in coffin shape, but that’s just my opinion.
Tip: Once you sign up with your phone number, they occasionally send out special offers so keep an eye on those.
