We're kicking off "Talk of the Town" this week with: The Nail Loft
In February 2025, a new beauty space opened its doors in Liberty. The Nail Loft was built with intention, creativity, and a deep love for community.
From day one, Liberty showed up, and that support has helped turn a dream into a growing local favorite for the Nail Loft Owner Vinny Scavone.
The idea behind The Nail Loft started with a passion for creativity and a desire to create a place where people could truly relax and feel cared for. As Vinny shared, "God lined it up", and he stepped into the opportunity with faith and purpose. That heart is felt the moment you walk through the door.
Today, The Nail Loft offers everything from structured gel services and Luminary gel to builder gel, acrylics, gel polish, pedicures, nail art, nail repair, seasonal specials, and gift cards. Each service is designed not just for beauty, but for confidence, comfort, and self-care.
One of the most meaningful moments so far has been watching the Liberty community embrace the salon. Meeting new clients who instantly feel at home and seeing familiar faces return again and again has made every step of the journey worthwhile.
Looking ahead, The Nail Loft plans to continue rolling out seasonal discounts, new services, and community collaborations. There are also plans to join the Chamber of Commerce in 2026 and become even more involved locally.
You can find The Nail Loft in the heart of Liberty at 28 S Commerce Street. Appointments can be booked online, and you can connect with them on Facebook and Instagram to stay up to date.
More than a salon, The Nail Loft is a space built on connection, creativity, and genuine care. Vinny is grateful for Liberty’s support and excited for what’s ahead, they are proud to be growing right alongside the community.

As we enter 2026, let’s leave bad habits in 2025. Please remember not to pour grease down your drains, as it is extremely harmful—not only to your sewer lines, but to the entire system.
Also, do not flush rags, wipes, or hygiene products down your pipes. Our goal is to maintain and protect the integrity of our water and sewer lines for as long as possible.
Let’s all do our part—don’t be the neighbor who backs up the whole block! 😊
