About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular noticed something peculiar in the spa’s waiting area—a small wooden box wrapped in brown paper, left unattended on the counter. No note, no tag—just an ordinary-looking package among the usual magazines and tissues. Curious, she picked it up and heard a faint jingle inside. A few minutes later, a delivery driver arrived apologizing for leaving his lunchbox behind. Everyone had a good laugh over coffee, and the box became a running joke at TN Nails & Spa.

2. One day, while getting a mani-pedi at TN Nails & Spa, a regular overheard an unusual announcement on the speaker above her head: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please note that our new nail polish collection now includes colors inspired by local traffic lights.’ Curious, she asked her manicurist, who smiled mysteriously and whispered, ‘They’re actually changing every week—today’s red is said to be as fiery as our local traffic.’ Later that afternoon, a delivery driver joked to his colleague, “I almost missed my turn because I was admiring my new orange nails!” The next day, a neighbor commented to another, ‘You look like you’ve been driving through half of Moscow today!’ And thus, TN Nails & Spa became known for their colorful—and sometimes confusing—traffic-light-inspired designs.

3. While getting her nails done one afternoon, a regular heard an unusual conversation between two nail technicians. ‘Did you see that new truck parked out front?’ asked one. The other replied, ‘No, I didn’t.’ The first tech whispered, ‘It looks like it has “To Nail or Not to Nail” written on the side!’ Curious, our regular looked outside and saw only a plain white truck with no writing. She laughed it off until she noticed another customer—a delivery driver—walking in carrying a cake. He whispered conspiratorially, ‘Happy anniversary to my wife, who loves anything nail-related!’ Everyone burst into laughter, realizing the funny prank behind the mysterious truck.

4. While getting her manicure one evening, a regular heard another customer whispering into her phone: ‘I’m meeting someone here tonight… but I don’t know who it is.’ Curious, she discreetly asked her manicurist if she’d seen anyone suspicious. With a mischievous smile, the technician replied, 'Oh yes, honey, there’s been a delivery guy hanging around for the past hour!' Turns out, the mystery person was just an overeager pizza boy.
