A Norfolk salon at the center of Hampton Roads

Crystal Nails has kept the same standard on International Blvd for more than 25 years, close enough that most of the region can reach it between errands.

5 min from the airportUnder 15 min from Naval Station Norfolk15 min from downtown

Hampton Roads runs on bridges, tunnels, and short drives, and the salon sits where many of them meet: central Norfolk, minutes off Tidewater Drive and Military Highway. Guests come from Virginia Beach's western neighborhoods, from Chesapeake up Military Highway, from Portsmouth through the tunnel, and from the bases on both sides of the water. The menu covers everything from a precise manicure to Onsen and pearl pedicures, ombre pink and white sets, nail art, waxing and lashes, and nails for kids and teens, all against a wall of more than 500 colors, Norfolk's largest selection.

The regional questions

Asked from every direction

Where in Hampton Roads is Crystal Nails?
In central Norfolk, at 1529 International Blvd #105 in the Norview area: 5 minutes from Norfolk International Airport, under 15 from Naval Station Norfolk, about 15 from downtown, and minutes off Tidewater Dr and Military Hwy. Parking is free, directly in front of the salon.
Do guests really drive in from other cities?
Regularly. Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, and Portsmouth guests keep standing routines here, and the salon sits within a short drive of most of the region. The drive pages above give honest times, routes, and what to expect from each direction.
Can I fit a visit around a cruise or a flight?
Comfortably. The Half Moone Cruise Center is 16 minutes away and the airport is 5, so a set the day before you sail or fly is an easy errand. Call (757) 853-7900 and we will time the chair to your schedule.
Which services do people cross the region for?
Ombre pink and white, the house specialty for more than 25 years; a color wall of more than 500 polishes, Norfolk's largest selection; pedicures that rise to Onsen mineral soaks and pearl powder; and nails for kids and teens, ages 5 and up, done beside you.

From anywhere in Hampton Roads.
