Haus of Zodiac Studio, a new nail salon collaboration between licensed technicians Gris Cardenas and Tiara Gray, is now open and accepting appointments at the Salon and Spa Galleria West Euless in Euless, Texas. The studio combines Cardenas's business Scorpioxnailss and Gray's Hands of Aqua under one roof, offering a range of nail services including builder gel, gel-x, and acrylic sets.
Cardenas, who operates Scorpioxnailss, brings over six years of experience to the studio. She specializes in builder/hard gel and gel-x sets, which provide a natural look while adding strength and length to nails. Builder gel involves a structured gel overlay applied over natural nails, while gel-x offers lightweight, soft gel extensions for durability. Cardenas credits her daughter as her inspiration for starting the business at age 28. "Without her, I wouldn't have taken the leap to start a whole new career at 28 years old," Cardenas said.
Gray, the owner of Hands of Aqua, also has six years of experience and offers acrylic nail sets and natural nail care services such as gel-x and builder gel. She described her business as "a space where creativity, quality, and connection come together." Gray added, "Every set of nails is done by a licensed nail artist with six years of experience and a love for turning tiny canvases into wearable art." Both technicians aim to help clients feel beautiful and confident, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment.
The studio is located at the Salon and Spa Galleria West Euless, a facility that provides salon suites for independent beauty professionals. With 23 locations nationwide, Salon and Spa Galleria is a growing chain offering leased spaces. The West Euless location is conveniently situated near businesses, shopping areas, and major interchanges, with free parking and handicap accessibility.
Haus of Zodiac Studio is currently accepting new clients by appointment only.
