Needing a fill but not trying to spend half your grocery budget? It was asked where to go for an affordable nail artist — ideally under $50 — and one name absolutely dominated the conversation.

If this were a landslide election, The Nail Therapists would’ve won by a mile.

Multiple locals chimed in with strong recommendations, including specific shout-outs to:

• Allie Chester
• Minny Walker
• Trinity Gordon

Comments ranged from “very affordable” to “hands down” to “all the girls are amazing and reasonable.” When that many people independently say the same thing, it’s worth paying attention.

One reader even asked about appointments after 5:30 PM — so if you work regular hours, it’s worth reaching out to check availability.

While The Nail Therapists led the pack, a few additional names were mentioned:

Lotus (Cynthia specifically recommended)
Described as “best I have found in Brunswick” by one commenter.

Gwen Williams

And for the ultra-budget route…

One local suggested at-home gel systems like Polish Pops, noting it costs around $8 per manicure and lasts 8–12 days. Not for everyone — but if you’re comfortable DIY-ing, that’s a serious savings.

If you’re trying to stay under $50 for a fill, The Nail Therapists is clearly the community favorite right now. But as always, pricing can vary based on length, shape, and design — so it’s smart to confirm before booking.
