Policies

Cancellations

A 24-hour notice is required for all cancellations/rescheduling of appointments. Appointments canceled/rescheduled within 24-hours of your scheduled time or no-shows will be charged 100% of the service fee. Cancellations/rescheduling for groups (3+) require 48-hour notice.     

*If you have to cancel/reschedule during non-business hours, please send us an email. We will accommodate your cancellation/rescheduling request accordingly. 

No Show

You can cancel/reschedule your appointment no later than 24 hours prior (48 hours for groups of 3+) so that we are able to fill your spot with someone else on the waitlist. No-shows will be charged the full-service fee of your originally scheduled appointment.

Late Arrival

We will always try our best to accommodate you if you are running late. However, if you are 10 or more minutes behind, your appointment may be shortened or forfeited so the one after yours is not affected. Keep in mind that you’ll still have to pay the full price of the service.

Nail Art Requests

Please email us with a photo of the nail art you'd like.
For Falls Church appointments: fc@nothinginbetweenstudio.com
For Tysons appointments: tysons@nothinginbetweenstudio.com 

We will review your request and get back to you with an estimate and availability. Please note, not all requested designs may be available to be done at our Tysons location. Thank you for your understanding as we get our new team fully trained up to NIB standards.

Gel Removal

If you currently have gel on your nails, make sure you are also booked for a gel removal, as the removal process can take up to 15 minutes. We cannot remove acrylic nails, SNS, or dip powder. 

Massage Clients

Please fill out our intake form prior to your appointment. If you do not fill out the form in advance, you must arrive 15 minutes before your appointment to do so.

Face Masks

Effective March 9, 2022, in accordance with the CDC, we will no longer be requiring face masks to be worn for both clients and our staff. Face masks will now be optional. We will have face masks on-hand for anyone who would like to use one.

Our staff members will continue to wear gloves during nail services and will wear a face mask during a service if requested by a client or if a client is at high-risk. If you are not feeling well, have a fever, or have traveled outside of the country in the past 2 weeks, we ask that you stay home and reschedule your appointment. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding as we continue to navigate what is safest for both our clients and staff. 

Covid-19 Safety

Upon entering our facilities, you must first wash your hands thoroughly for 20 seconds with soap and water before touching any polishes, products, or surfaces. After washing your hands, you may go to our polish wall to select the nail color of your choice.

As a team, we are taking precautions by continuing our cleaning and sterilization practices listed below:

  • Employees must thoroughly wash their hands with soap and water upon entering our facilities, before & after each appointment, and wear gloves during services.
