2 chains in total, sorted by number of locations.
All chains
NailSpa · 4 locationsEstonia's largest salon chain specialising in manicures and pedicures, with four locations in Tallinn.
Maniküür.ee · 4 locationsManiküür.ee is a Tallinn chain of manicure and pedicure salons with four locations, offering nail and foot care services with medical-grade sterilisation.
A nail salon chain means two or more nail studios under the same brand: one price list, one booking system and technicians trained to the same standard. That matters more in nail care than in many other services, since gel polish grows out in three to four weeks and the touch-up is often done by a different technician — the same system and the same products mean the old layer doesn't need to be filed off first. The Ilusalong24.ee directory currently lists two confirmed nail salon chains, NailSpa and Maniküür.ee, eight salons between them. Both operate in Tallinn only, so outside the capital you'll need to look among standalone salons.
Estonia's nail salon chains — the best-known names
NailSpa runs four salons, all in Tallinn: Viru Keskus, Kristiine, Sadama and the city centre. The chain focuses narrowly on manicures and pedicures, and its locations are chosen around shopping centres. It suits you if you want to book a slot between errands or during a workday without a separate trip.
Maniküür.ee also covers four Tallinn locations — Kaubamaja, the city centre, Lasnamäe and Mustamäe — and stands out on a hygiene promise: every instrument is sterilised with medical-grade dry heat, and every service carries a guarantee of up to seven days. If your gel polish has come off early before, or you have sensitive nail beds, that's a concrete reason to start here. Both chains sit at the €€ price level in the directory, so the choice comes down to location and the work guarantee rather than price.
How to choose a nail salon chain
Since both chains are Tallinn-only, geography here comes down to which part of the city, not which city. Look at which salon falls along your usual route — nail care is a repeat service, and three to four weeks later, convenience decides whether you rebook. Outside Tallinn, nail technicians mostly work solo or in two- or three-person studios; they're listed in the nail salon directory and on city pages such as manicure in Tartu and manicure in Pärnu.
The second question is the range of services. Before booking, check that the price list actually includes what you want — classic or e-file manicure, gel polish, extensions, pedicure. Within a chain, the offering varies less from salon to salon than it does between standalone studios, but it still varies. For pedicure and foot care, it's worth asking separately whether the location has a dedicated room for it.
The third criterion is price, and what's included in it. A meaningful comparison only appears once you factor in how long the work lasts and whether a touch-up is billed separately. A published price list at every location, a work guarantee and one booking system are a chain's main advantages over a solo technician; in exchange, you usually give up the certainty of seeing the same person every time.
