Milano Nail Spa will open its second Katy shop in the Target-anchored Elyson shopping center Sept. 9, officials said. According to an Aug. 22 news release, over $1 million has been invested in the design and development of the space.

Located at 22225 FM 529, Katy, just east of the Grand Parkway, the 5,000-square-foot nail spa offers a variety of manicure and pedicure options with over 1,000 polish selections. In addition, services will include full-body waxing, and eyebrow and lash services.

Some other features of the new Katy spa include:

• 30 manicure stations
• 50 massage pedicure chairs
• Multiple TV monitors
• Complimentary beverages, ranging from sparkling water to margaritas
• One semiprivate room for events
• 16 nail technicians, which are expected to grow to 60 as traffic increases

Milano Nail Spa—which also has Houston spas in the Heights, West University and Memorial neighborhoods—will celebrate its Elyson location opening with a 30% discount on all services, complimentary beverages and light snacks, as well as a traditional lion dance ceremony at 10 a.m., per the news release.
