After I went to the nail salon I had been going to previously, being told they could take me as a walk in, they did a poor job at starting to remove the dips then ended up saying they couldn't take me and asked me to come back later. Nope I needed to find somewhere else fast as I had a funeral to go to in a few hours. I found this salon and decided to give it a try and I am so happy I did! Great attention to detail and love the fact the dips aren't super thick! I highly recommend checking them out! Very convenient location; right off 94...easy in easy out! read more

A2 Nails Spa - Dip with an accent nail art - Nail Salons Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

This was a nice experience! I called ahead and they were able to squeeze us in (and even stayed after hours for us!). My technician was detail oriented and spent a nice long time on my pedicure. Prices were reasonable--would return! read more

Spa Pedi with hot stones...amazing. Clean, comfortable salon. Great staff!! Can't wait to return

Paul is great nail technician: thorough, fast, and very pleasant. The visit was a very good experience for me. Would definitely come back.

Quality was so bad. Everything uneven. Overpriced. Owner was so rude. Vibe was weird and the service was so bad

I've never had a mani pedi before. This was my first. And it was terrible. Traumatizing. I was in pain most of the time. And I have a high pain tolerance. The woman decimated my fingers and toes! She cut so much of my nail bed and cuticles off that my fingers are raw the next day. I didn't realize it wasn't supposed to be like that until I compared with my wife. She was treated by a gentlemen that was great. I've never paid $100 for such a poor experience. read more

A2 Nails Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

Inside the place is nice but the lady working there is SO MEAN and also my cuticles were bleeding by the end but the nails itself were eh

I would've given them 3 if it wasn't for how my complaint was addressed. I got a dip manicure here for the first time. My nail tech was very nice and, overall, I'm pleased with the results of my nails, but during the service, she accidentally burned the top of one of my nails with the electric filer while removing my old polish. It's okay, I thought. It was an accident. But then she accidentally cut under my nail bed twice. I flinched and made a small cry and she responded that I have sensitive hands. I showed her the cuts and she didn't apologize. When I checked out, I let them know about all of this while commending the tech for being very nice. She did apologize, which was nice, but when I asked about a discount, she told me she gave me $2 off. I kind of stood there, looking astonished...at which point she increased it to $3. "It was an accident," she said. I totally get it...but "Is this what I should expect when getting my nails done? I literally have 2 flesh wounds." She then took a picture of my hands...not really sure why...but offered nothing further. All they had to do was say sorry and comp a larger part of my $70 service. Because they didn't, I won't be back. read more

A2 Nails Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

I hate having to write a review that isn't favorable. In fact I waited three months to write this. As you can see from the pictures I've posted I used to come here and was very happy with the service and how my nails and feet came out. I visit my home state of Michigan fairly often and always am on the lookout for a good nail salon. I thought I had found it with A2 Nails but this last visit sealed the deal for me that I won't be returning. First I want to say this place was great pre-pandemic and started going down hill after the state started opening again. The owners, Paul and Linda, were very nice when I first started coming here about three years ago. Paul does a great job with a pedicure and Linda was always the one to do my nails. She's not overly friendly but she was efficient. The last two visits she was extremely rude and almost seemed bothered that I was there. She barely said one word to me and when I asked her if she could sand the corners a little better she said are you calling me a liar? I said no ma'am I just like the corners smooth and can still feel the acrylic stuck to the nails. She said to me I've been doing nails for many years and I go over them really quick you don't even know I get the corners. Well I do know she didn't touch the corners but I didn't say anymore. I figured OK let her finish it's not the end of the world. The tipping point was when I went to check out she charged me $70 for gel nails. I've been getting my nails done since 1998 and know the price of nails and what they cost and even with inflation and the rising prices $70 is still way too much for just basic gel nails. I had no designs, special colors, or even a special shape. When I went to pay and she said $70 I didn't even question it and handed her my debit card just wanting to be out of there. She flung the debit card back at me it fell on the floor. I don't know if I looked horrified or stunned but all she said was sorry very rudely. I said no problem and picked up my card off the floor and still tipped her 20%. I should have probably told her where she could stick it and left no tip but maybe she'll feel bad for the way she treats her customers and will change. I do know that I won't be coming back here again. What a shame because this used to be a great nail salon. read more

I called ahead to make an appointment. She agreed to 5:30p. I received a text confirmation for 5:45. Oh well. No big deal. I arrived and waited for a tech for 15 mins. Pedi, and sat to let it dry a bit before waddling out to my car with the foam slippers. Car clock said 6:30pm. Burn and turn baby. The tech was nice but very rough. The owner is terse and not friendly. I didn't understand her at first about where the colors were, to choose from. I asked again. Picked a color and didn't know what to do. I wanted to make sure I was out of the way while waiting. Owner told me to sit at the drying station then started yelling in another language. Maybe at me or not. Idk. Afterwards, I walked up to cash out and she asked me what I want to add for a tip. I told her and she yelled something to my tech who glanced at me. Owner kept commenting something in another language then asked if I had a problem with the service. I said no. I just wanted to get out of there. I know that's not the way to handle or address a visit. I should have spoken up a couple times but I just didn't have the energy this day. I thought a pedi would make me feel better. Provide relaxing comfort but it was rushed, and stressful. Tech did a fine job but she was fast and rough. A bit painful at times. I got feeling back in my foot a few hours later. The callus shredder was brutal. This was just my experience. I hope they are nice people. read more

I have never been so disrespected in my life. The nail tech wish is the owner pretending to be an employee had such a nasty attitude that should have been my first clue but as she was cleaning my she was wiping the dead skin back on my foot. She very little gel on my nails and they all broken with days. I was over charged and the old man working with her spoke to everyone but me. Stay away from this location if your of African decent were definitely not welcomed read more

I think that I am spoiled with my salon in Anaheim, CA (have to shout out Nexus Nails). I just moved to Ann Arbor 4 months ago and felt that I should find my new salon here. At Nexus, if you make an appointment you get assigned a nail tech or you request your nail tech so that when go in for your appointment, you are not made to wait 35 minutes. Here, I was given an appt time of 10am (their opening time) and when I came in, all nail techs were working on other clients and I waited 35 minutes. And at Nexus, they don't charge extra for gel/shellac removal. Here, it is $5 for removal. There, I paid $32 for gel mani and $37 for gel pedi. Here, it is $40 for gel mani and $48 for gel pedi. Also, here they charge $2 extra if you pay with credit card. So paying more I would expect a better job. The gel pedi went well! And then we moved onto the gel mani. Looking at my nails (shown in picture), I realize I should have asked for an additional coat. But also, they should recognize that and it felt like the nail tech was rushing towards the end. I will not name her because I don't want her to receive fewer clients, but this is just feedback for the salon. I don't feel sad tipping my nail tech in California a ton of money because she will fix any tiny thing I point out and give me great feedback on how she thinks things are looking. Here, I tipped $8 and then the owner as I was checking out said "wow she only tipped $8 for a $95 total." Well if I was happier with the service and my money did not go to hidden fees, then I definitely would have more to tip. So, sadly will just be getting my nails done in Anaheim, CA when I am home visiting my family. I have done 3 5-star reviews with photos for Nexus nails if you're curious on what 5-star nail service looks like. read more

Had a gel French manicure and pedicure ahead of the holidays and vacation and they were great! Very high quality and great customer service. Recommend an appointment. They were very busy. read more

I went to this place because my regular nail tech had broken her arm and it came highly rated on here. However, it was the worst nail dip I've ever had. Steps were skipped and completed in a weird order (shaping my nails after dipping them), the dreaded dremmel was used repeatedly including on my cuticles which damaged them, and the top coat used was for shellac so it started chipping after a day. Also while the guy was doing my pedicure, he showed me the cheese grater that he uses on other people...which is ILLEGAL! read more

Wonderful staff, so friendly and professional! Pedicure was amazing... the beautiful environment with fabulous orchids made it even more special.. thank you! read more

A2 Nails Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

I rarely feel compelled to give a bad review, but this place was awful. My husband and I got pedicures and the service was VERY rushed and we in no way got what we paid for. The woman who worked on my husband was very rude and he left with a cut on his cuticle. The man who worked on me was friendly but, again, he blew through each step. Overall, it was an underwhelming waste of money. Never again. read more

My nails unfortunately look worse than they started with. It was a gel manicure; she clipped so much of my fingertip skin off and ground the nail down to just the bed. I'm sad that I spent money to ruin my nails. read more

My niece and I went here to get our nails done and we were both very disappointed. Nails were done horribly, I got a pedicure and she got a fill. Manager did not offer any type of discount and was argumentative. I left before letting them touch my nails. Never going back. The pictures say enough. read more

very rude and over charged for things they didn't even do to begin with and was rushing.

I recently moved to Ann Arbor during the pandemic. I was in need of a pick me up. I haven't been to a nail salon since October 2019 (my wedding). Today I called A2 Nails and they were able to get me booked for a gel manicure and pedicure within an hour of opening. I've been hesitant of any and all public places. Upon entering A2. They took temps, had strategically placed plexiglass dividers, mandatory social distancing, and everyone was masked. It was a relaxing experience. I got my mani/ pedi with Paul. He took special time, care, and attention. The stone massage was the best ever. He was extremely kind and highly skilled. I'm appreciative of this business abiding by the safety measures, great service, and helping someone feel good on a crummy day. Thank you Paul! I'm a returning customer! read more

A2 Nails Spa - Gel manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

I have been going to this nail salon for the last two years and have always done a great job. They have a great selections of gels (which is why I always struggle to pick a color!) I particularly like the mood changing colors and I feel like they have new ones each time I come back. If you're unfamiliar, the mood colors change with temperature and can be on a spectrum. For the pic I ran my hand under cold water. They have regular polish, and dips but I usually stick to gels. For COVID: they have been so great. Everyone wears a mask, their are plexus glass shields to protect everyone. They also distance groups, so me and my roommates could sit together but get a safe distance from everyone else. They take your temperature when you walk in and have your phone number taken down. Everyone is also COVID sanitation certified. Love to support this shop. Recommend calling ahead and telling them which services you would like so that they can best schedule you and respect the other clients. They really do their best to fit in everyone's services especially with people who add on a mani to their pedi. They also ask you if you want the spa or basic and be clear which services you want. I've circled through most of not all the nail techs and recommend them all! Can't wait to show off my next mani! read more

Rude service and worst pedicure. The lady was doing everything so fast No recommend read more

I have been coming to this salon for years, and my 2 adult/professional daughters were here for the holidays, and I wanted to treat them to nails. My one daughter got an acrylic set done by Paul, and they looked great. My other daughter chose a gel dip, as her tech could not do acrylics, and the gel dips were done SO poorly and she cut her cuticles. She got home and looked at them and showed them to me, and they looked horrific. She was tearful as it hurt, they looked terrible, and she had a special event to go to that evening. She called and they told her to come back the next day. The woman who owns the place/manager was incredibly rude to her when she came back, and said she was going to charge her $30 more to get acrylics, when the gel dips that I already paid for were $5 more than the posted acrylic price AND she was going to have to pay to have the gel dips removed that THEY did poorly! She ended just getting a gel manicure, and this also looked horrible, but she left. She did not want to be there any longer, and she was tearful again for being treated so rudely when all she wanted was to have nice looking nails as a holiday treat from her mom. I went in to talk to the owner/manager today in person to discuss what happened. She has been rude to me in the past and have seen her be rude to other customers on the phone and when I have been in there previously. It is NYE day and there was not a customer in there. I recalled the incident and she became defensive and got out her calculator to show me that she should have charged me more to fix my daughter's nails that her salon did poorly. She did not apologize for the poor service her salon provided, and kept telling me she should have charged her/me more. She did acknowledge that the service was done poorly. I told her I had been coming for years to her business and would not be back, and she said "Happy New Year". I have to put a star in, otherwise my review would be zero stars. If you want to feel pampered and have beautiful nails, DO NOT come here for an appt. Go literally anywhere else. I have never done a yelp review, but the service was so poor, I felt compelled to write this! read more

Amazing quality! Paul was so patient and had amazing attention to detail. New favorite place to go to in Ann Arbor!!

We love it here. The service is awesome and the staff is friendly. I love the hot stones and the massage chairs. The salon is always very clean. They have so many color selections for both traditional and shellac polish. Definitely recommend. read more

A2 Nails Spa - Massage/ pedicure chairs. - Nail Salons Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

This place has the rudest and pushy service, and my mani and pedi were done terribly. I would not recommend to anyone. And I paid $105 for French tip and regular pedi with $10 tip! Totally overpriced. There is a hair stuck in my finger nail, that I didn't notice until I got home. My toe nails were done badly it's uneven. I'm attaching some photos. I told the lady(seems to be the owner and pushy) I only had an hour, so I will have to come back for pedi. She kept telling me it can be done, while another employee there already told me it won't be enough time. After I got my mani done by her, she told me again it can be done in time and had the other employee working on my pedi(regular). And of course it wasn't enough time, by the time he finished (it looked bad). However at this point I don't have the time to ask for a fix and time to pay. As mentioned it's a steep $95 for some badly done nails. I asked her if I could pay with Apple Pay since i left my card at home. Rudely she said "you didn't know u need to pay when leaving home?!" Well... I didn't ask not to pay! I quickly paid and added $10 tips by giving her my card number. However I was really embarrassed and added the tip for no reason at this point and just wanted to leave. I didn't want to ask about fixing the nails anymore since I really don't care about dealing with them. Sometimes people may feel (I did before and am Asian) that since they are Asian or the culture is different, it's ok to be rude and pushy. but that's not the case, a good Asian business should still be polite and professional, in no way treat their customers badly. Hope you will consider this review and take your business somewhere worth your time and money read more

Very clean salon. All COVID rules followed strictly. Poor review due to the following... Price for services was $10 higher than stated on the wall due to additional COVID cleaning. Constant questions about where we were from and how we got there because of concern of spreading COVID. Service was rushed and pedicure was not well done. Our visit was August of 2020 read more

If you are thinking of getting a manicure or pedicure in Ann Arbor, this is the spot. Ask for Paul! I promise you won't be disappointed. This salon is not only clean but also cozy. It is really easy to schedule an appointment and the staff are welcoming and friendly. I got a basic pedicure and it was amazing. It was the most inclusive basic pedicure I have ever had...they even used hot stones! It is priced really well for everything you get. They have a great color wall, and I seriously love my pedicure!!!! Can't wait to go back again. read more

Thank you Linda. I left A2Nails feeling 100% better than when I walked in. It's a great space, clean with lots of light. Linda spent a lot of time preparing my nails for a full set. I asked a lot of questions about the process. She checked in with me frequently. Linda was professional, patient and had a calm demeanor. I highly recommend A2 Nails My new nails are amazing! Oh, can't forget about Paul? Yep... good job! L. Shelton read more

I came in on a weeknight around 6pm and they squeezed me in even though they already had some appointments booked. I did have to wait about a half hour but I had a book and got to lounge in the massage chairs so it was a-ok with me! They have a wall of polish organized by brand and color. It's nice seeing them all lined up in a row vs. in rotating racks. It's easier to eyeball what you might like. I went with a basic dark pink OPI but added a glittery coat of a pink sparkly number in honor of Valentine's Day coming up the week after. The space is really new so it's very clean and the chairs are to die for. They're some of the most comfortable, powerful massage chairs I've ever had the pleasure of sitting in. They also handed me a complimentary bottle of water right off the bat when we got started, which was really nice. The pedicure was fast and efficient but also really well done. My feet were in terrible shape before I came in, very dry and peeling, but the lady really gave them a good exfoliating ("that was a workout!" she said after. SORRY! Haha) and they were smooth as a baby when I left. The polish was also expertly applied. The only thing is my nail tech went with a more square, sharper shape and I like a bit more rounded, so I'll have to remember to ask for that in the future. The treatment was also really relaxing. I got a GREAT foot and leg massage, hot stones, and wrapped hot towels. It was amazing. The price was right at $28. Actually kind of a steal and I would have easily paid more for the service I got. They also do manicures, acrylics, gel/shellac, etc etc. I think A2 Nails Spa is my new go-to place for pedicures in Ann Arbor. I had a great first experience and plan to come back again soon! I'll just make sure to make an appointment in the future so I don't throw them off their game and I won't have to wait for my service. read more

Paul is outstanding. Great new place for us. Very clean snd organized. He took his time with each of us.

I got a pedicure from Paul. He did an excellent job. He's kind and very skilled and went above and beyond. If you have shellac or gel polish on your feet or are prone to very dry skin, Paul is the person you want. He's very thorough and helpful in removing polish and dry skin. Your feet will feel renewed and significantly softer! If you also prefer a relaxed atmosphere, this is the place for you. read more

I've been looking for a good nail place and I finally found one! This place is very nice, clean and decorated nicely. I get Dip nails and was pleasantly surprised at the shear selection of dip powder and polish available. Paul did my nails and he did an outstanding job.

I love my nails and I'll be back. *note * it's a good idea to call ahead or make an appt. read more

I finally got my husband to go with me to get a pedicure. He really needed one, but was reluctant to go. He's a retired construction worker. They did a wonderful job. I think more men should go get their feet groomed. It's a great date afternoon. They could use couples pedicures as advertisement. S. Briston read more

I love A2 Nails Spa! I've been coming here for over a year. I've been to numerous nail salons in the Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti area and A2 is one of the best! They have the BEST Pedicure in the area! The classic is affordable and includes a massage and hot rocks--many places in the area do not have that luxury in their basic/classic pedi. All of the techs do a great job, Paul and Linda especially! They are always there and do quality work and take their time, even when it's busy! You never feel rushed! Linda is an amazing manicurist as well! Her technique is amazing, but she can get busy with appointments in the evening and on weekends so if you want your nails done with her try to get an appointment and in the mornings/early afternoons if you can. They have an amazing selection of regular polish colors, more than most places as far as regular polish goes. They have a decent gel and dip powder selection as well. Linda saved my nails!! I have long natural nails after repeat gel polish but due to work my nails have been breaking. My thumb nail was broken/splitting across almost 50% of the nail and bleeding (Ouch!). I came in and asked Linda if she could save my nail! And she went above and beyond. She removed all my gel polish and used dip powder and the electric buffer/filer to seal my nail. It was cured!!!!! I couldn't believe it. Thank you, Linda!!!! They can get busy, but I've never had a problem getting a walk in or calling 30 minutes before (I usually come during the week). They're worth it, especially the pedicures. read more

Just had a fantastic experience with Vivienne. I had a spa pedicure and shellac manicure done. She took her time and I never felt rushed. She was accommodating of my requests and did a great job. After years of poor experiences in and around Northville I decided to drive out here and try them out based on the reviews and they did not disappoint. She only works Sundays but I'll be certain to try out the other staff members and definitely return to see Vivienne when Sunday suits my schedule. 1000s of of polish and shellac/dip options as well. Highly recommend them. Plexiglass between customers and employees as well for COVID precautions. read more
