Our Story

A Little Salon with a Whole Lot of Heart

Nails by Elizabeth has been a quiet staple in Onawa — a place where regulars become friends and every appointment is treated with the same care and attention as if it were our own hands we were working on.

We believe beauty isn't about trends or rushing through a chair. It's about taking the time to do it right, to listen, and to leave you feeling a little more put-together than when you walked in.

Whether it's a simple classic manicure for the week ahead or something a little more special for a wedding or celebration, we're here to make it beautiful.
