How did you choose your business name?
In the process of choosing the name, Crystal Nail Spa, we looked for a name that conveyed beauty, style, fashion, elegance, brightness and cleanliness. We followed the crystal theme in the spa decor with a massive glass chandelier centerpiece, large picture windows and glass and mirror accents throughout.
