Apgujeong nail salon baked-peach nude tone comparison: Naeil Didi

Hi everyone! This time I visited a nail salon in Apgujeong Rodeo that's especially good at clean, natural-looking nails. I've been wanting that trendy, sheer nude look that makes it seem like your nails are just naturally pretty, so I went looking for a place that does this well — and the colors here turned out to be gorgeous!

How to get to Naeil Didi from Apgujeong Rodeo Station

Naeil Didi, a nail salon in Apgujeong Rodeo, is located close to Apgujeong Rodeo Station, which made it super easy to get to! There's a sign in front of the building, and once you're inside it's clearly marked too. As soon as you get off on the 5th floor, you'll see the Naeil Didi sign right away, so just head up to the 6th floor!

Once you arrive on the 6th floor, this is what greets you at Naeil Didi. I got there right on time for my appointment, and there were already a lot of customers there getting everything from pedicures to manicures..!

What is Naeil Didi's 6th-floor salon like?

Naeil Didi, a nail salon in Apgujeong Rodeo, has plenty of space for getting your nails done, so it seems like a great spot to come with a friend! There are windows that open up the space, so I could sit through the whole service without feeling cramped at all.

They had a genuinely huge collection of colors! There are bold neon shades too, but true to its reputation as a spot for clean, natural nails, they really do have a ton of natural tones — which got me even more excited.

And the pedicure area was set up so neatly too — when I visited, every seat there was occupied with customers as well!

Choosing a nude tone from Naeil Didi's natural-tone color books

True to its reputation for clean, natural nails, Naeil Didi's color book had such a huge variety of natural tones. There's really no such thing as two identical natural tones (lol) — the colors were all so varied yet all so different that I spent a long time agonizing over it ㅜㅜ

And there was just as much on the next page too, haha. Even though I already had a specific color in mind, having so many options still made me go back and forth on the exact tone and shade. At that point I asked the designer for her opinion, and she happily did a test swatch for me, which really helped me make my final decision! The designer at Naeil Didi was so kind, honestly ><

Cuticle care and nail nourishment at Naeil Didi

Naeil Didi, a nail salon in Apgujeong Rodeo, was really thorough with the care process too. The designer was so kind that I felt completely comfortable the whole time, without a single uncomfortable moment..! And even while doing such detailed care, she kept checking in and explaining what she was doing — I really appreciated that.

She even took care of nail nourishment in detail..!

These are my nails right after the care step — so clean, right? I was already sold at this point,, And after that, she checked the color with me too! Since I was still torn, she pulled out two final color options and let me compare them side by side! While I was getting my nails done, I kept seeing what looked like regular customers coming in, and I totally get why they keep coming back!

Baked-peach nude nails before and after

My nails before,, the cuticles had grown out a lot and the lengths were all uneven, so it looked kind of messy!

And they were reborn into this clean yet natural color! Eek. A shade like baked peach is honestly a color that's hard to come across,,! But since Naeil Didi has such a wide range of colors, I was able to get exactly the shade I wanted, which I really loved.

Coloring my nails in such a natural tone made them look longer too, and the clean finish gives off such a well-cared-for, polished feel that I love. If you're looking for clean, natural nails or just a nail salon that really knows what it's doing in Apgujeong Rodeo, I'd definitely recommend checking out Naeil Didi!
