Nails Mantra

Nails Mantra is situated at Ku-24 on the second floor in Pitampura. We’re right opposite the Shakti Mandir, so it’s easy to find once you get into the Rajouri Garden main market area. It’s a bit of a climb up to the second floor, but once you’re inside, it’s a whole different world from the noisy market below. We spend our days surrounded by hundreds of little glass bottles and the smell of acrylic and polish. It’s not a huge space, so things can get a bit tight when we have a few customers in at the same time. We try to keep things organized, but there’s usually a stray cotton ball or a file somewhere it shouldn't be. The staff here are just regular people who happen to be really steady with their hands. We talk about everything from the weather to what’s happening in the market outside. It’s a friendly vibe, not like those stiff, expensive places. Sometimes the AC acts up and we have to open a window, which lets in all the street sounds. We don't have any big slogans. We just sit at the tables and do the work, one nail at a time. It’s nice to see people leave looking a bit happier than when they walked in. Being near the Rajouri Garden main market is always a chaos of people and cars, so we’re like a little escape up here. We just keep doing our thing every day.
