New Hampshire’s Top Rated Local® Nail Salons Award Winner: Herbal Nails

Top Rated Local® is pleased to announce that Herbal Nails is a 2019 award winner for nail salons in New Hampshire!

When you want healthy, beautiful nails, there’s no better salon to turn to in Portsmouth than Herbal Nails.

Herbal Nails has received dozens of reviews with an average rating of 4.92 stars, earning them an incredible Rating Score™ of 95.15 and a 2019 Top Rated Local award for ranking among the top five nail salons in all of New Hampshire!

Here’s just one of the many five-star reviews that got them there:

“I had the best manicure/pedicure experience of my life at Herbal Nails. They were super accommodating with my schedule and then worked on my toes and fingers simultaneously. Additionally, they helped me pick out the perfect shade of light pink (actually mixing a white and a pink) that I absolutely love!! The pedicure was incredibly relaxing, including the massage and the hot stones. My manicure looks perfect over a week later. The prices are affordable as well — way cheaper than other places in the area, and the quality exceeds all other places. I can’t wait to go back for my next manicure!” – Riley M.

Not Your Average Nail Salon

We wanted to learn what makes this award-winning business tick, so we took a few minutes to talk with Amy Pham, who co-owns Herbal Nails with her husband.

To kick off our conversation, we asked Amy about what makes Herbal Nails unique compared to the many other nail salons in New Hampshire. Amy told us that they are a nail salon that sticks with the basics — pedis and manis. They offer organic products for those who prefer them. Amy and the team take their time and take pride in work. When a client comes in, they don’t rush them out. Often, they refer to it as therapy, because the client comes in after a long day and can vent/chat with a very friendly team while getting their nails done

Amy went on to tell us that, without their great team, they wouldn’t be where they are today.

Building Success by Treating Everyone Like Family

Amy credits Herbal Nails’ strong online reputation to the fact that their clients are great and that they are committed to treating everyone like family. Their clients leave reviews spontaneously because they are so happy and satisfied with the service.

Outside of building a powerful online reputation, Herbal Nails has grown through referrals and word of mouth, which says something about the kind of service they offer and their environment.

Amy told us that, when she and her husband first started, they were a little lost, but Mike Hertz, who works with a non-profit called, “The Score,” went above and beyond to coach them on getting a business plan together and mapping out the process.


Congratulations to Herbal Nails for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Amy, for taking the time to speak with us!

We highly recommend Herbal Nails in Portsmouth. Visit their website today!
