Elsa did my nails today and she did such a great job. I needed a neutral color and she listened very well to everything I was looking for. Amazing experience and I highly recommend. The overall atmosphere in the studio was also very clean and friendly. Loved this place!


Charm Nail Bar |Thao Dien Quan 2 (D2) - Nail salon in Thao Dien, District 2, Ho Chi Minh City
About This Place
Charm Nail Bar sits on Xuân Thủy in the heart of Thao Dien's expat corridor and has built a loyal following among residents who want consistent, skilled nail work without the language barrier that trips up many salons in the area. The clientele skews international, and the technicians — Amy, Elsa, Tira, and others — are regularly singled out in reviews for their attentiveness and English fluency. Amy in particular has developed a reputation for precise gel work and strong massage technique, drawing return visits from guests who specifically request her.
The menu covers the full range of modern nail services: BIAB full sets (priced around 900,000 VND after discount, which regulars note sits at the upper end of the Thao Dien market), cat eye gel extensions, gel pedicures, and manicure-pedicure combinations. Appointments come with complimentary drinks — a small gesture that lands well with guests settling in for longer services. The interior is kept clean and quiet, with enough space that the atmosphere stays calm rather than hurried, even on busy weekend afternoons.
What distinguishes Charm Nail Bar from the cluster of nail spots around Thao Dien is the consistency of its technicians across a range of service types. Reviews covering pedicures, gel sets, and BIAB all describe careful colour consultations and attention to finish quality. The pricing reflects that positioning — this is not the cheapest option in the neighbourhood — but for expats and long-term residents who value reliable results and clear communication over bargain rates, it functions as a dependable regular. Walk-ins are possible during the week; weekend slots tend to fill, and booking ahead is advisable.
Reviews
Nice environment, nice massage! It’s a bit expensive though I recommend masseur.Amy, she speaks English well and has very professional massage skill, no matter strong or light, very good! Will visit again if I come over again!
I’m giving this place 3 stars only for a few reasons: - The chairs are not the most clean. (I saw a roach but I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt because it’s hot these days and it’s common here) - The service itself was fine. The person doing my nails was efficient and nice but not really applied. - the outcome was not the best. Slightly bumpy and a lot of excess nail polish around the tips. - I would also say that the prices are very high for the actual quality of the service. Overall I will say that the free drink and the nice person doing my nails made this ok but I don’t think I can give this place more than 3 stars.
Lovely service, Amy did a great job on my cat eye gel extension nails and Hannah did a great job on my gel pedicure was also done very well. Professional and clean, neat salon with the sweetest workers, would highly recommend and would come back! Thank you Amy, Hannah, and staff
I came here for a manicure and pedicure and had the lushest time. The girls did a perfect job helping me decide what to have and making adjustments to make it perfect. Big thank you to Yarra and Tyra, just the sweetest and a real giggle.
