Julia Beauty Nail Salon Chinatown brings the brand's blend of skilled nail artistry and self-care treatments to 3 Pickering Street, #01-47 on Nankin Row, in the heart of Chinatown. It is the second Julia Beauty location after the original Far East Plaza salon, established in 2021, and offers manicures and pedicures, nail extensions, BIAB nails, eyelash extensions, lash lifts, facials, waxing and spa treatments, including a rejuvenating head spa.
The salon is led by Julia, who brings years of nails and lashes expertise from Vietnam, and its experienced technicians work with brands such as The Gel Bottle, Lycon and Follizin. Julia Beauty describes itself as the only certified BIAB nail expert in Chinatown, and its Follizin Scalp Balancing treatment — delivered on a dedicated head spa machine with plant-based, skincare-grade products — goes beyond a typical head spa to keep the scalp balanced, sebum-regulated and moisturised over time.
Expect a clean, cozy atmosphere with strict hygiene standards, personalised service and a full beauty menu under one roof — and yes, they serve gourmet coffee while your nails are done. The salon sits on the main road at 3 Pickering Street, a short walk from Telok Ayer MRT (Exit B), with taxi and Grab drop-off at the Great Eastern Building. Walk-ins are welcome, and booking ahead is recommended.
Julia Beauty's Chinatown outlet occupies a convenient spot at 3 Pickering Street, #01-47, on Nankin Row, just off South Bridge Road in the heart of Singapore's Chinatown. It is the second location for a brand that made its name at Far East Plaza in 2021, and it carries over everything regulars loved: meticulous nail work, warm service, and a cozy, relaxing atmosphere that makes an hour in the chair feel like a proper break.
The salon is led by Julia, who brings years of nails-and-lashes expertise from Vietnam. That background shows in the details — precise work, careful shaping, and custom nail art that one Nankin Row reviewer called the best in the neighbourhood.
If one treatment defines Julia Beauty Chinatown, it is BIAB — Builder in a Bottle. The salon is the only certified BIAB nail expert in Chinatown, and clients back that up: people who once struggled with weak, breaking nails report that regular BIAB appointments have left their natural nails stronger and healthier. The treatment promotes healthy growth and wears with a durable, chip-resistant finish, which is why it has become a signature alongside gel manicures and spa pedicures.
Gel manicure regulars will notice the small touches. Even an express session includes rose hand serum and shea butter hand lotion, so skin does not get neglected in a speedy appointment. Pedicures run from quick express refreshes to a deluxe classic mani-pedi gel experience, and the menu also covers men's manicures and pedicures plus kid-friendly manicures using non-toxic polish — a rarity that makes family visits simple.
Nails are only half the story. The lash bar turns out classic eyelash extensions in under 40 minutes — fast, flawless and long-lasting — or a lash lift for those who want a curl without mascara. Reviewers mention lashes that stayed perfect for weeks. For length and drama, the signature gel extensions with dipping are customised to your ideal shape, whether natural or bold.
Then there is the head spa. The Follizin Scalp Balancing treatment is billed as "more than just a head spa": you rest on a dedicated head spa machine while plant-based Follizin products — skincare-grade for the scalp — work to regulate sebum and retain moisture. The salon notes that scalp skin ages far faster than facial skin, which is its case for giving the scalp the same attention as your face. Add hand and foot spa treatments, facials and waxing, and you have a genuine one-stop self-care afternoon.
The space is clean, comfortable and built for relaxation, with strict hygiene standards the team is upfront about. The salon works with established brands — The Gel Bottle, Lycon and Follizin — and personalises every service to your style and nail health rather than pushing a one-size-fits-all menu. And yes, they serve coffee: you can sip a gourmet cup while your set is finished.
Practically, the salon is easy to reach. It sits on the main road at 3 Pickering Street, Singapore 048660, a short walk from Telok Ayer MRT (Exit B), accessible by bus or car, with taxi and Grab drop-off at the Great Eastern Building. Walk-ins are always welcome, though booking ahead is the surest way to skip the wait — especially for longer combo visits like nails plus scalp spa.
Whether you are after a quick express manicure between errands or a full stretch of BIAB, lashes and a scalp reset, Julia Beauty Chinatown packages it all under one roof on Nankin Row.
