My nails were over filed, my cuticles were cut excessively and nail beds were buffed multiple times until they were paper thin. I also asked for one nail to be cut down because it was so thin and in a rush the tech cut them all very short. Ugh. It's disappointing because I'm in the process of getting them healthier after having acrylics for a while and only do shellac now. I definitely will not be returning. read more

I have only been twice now and came to check their hours so I could take my daughter before an upcoming trip. I was shocked to see the number of low reviews and felt the need to defend this salon because the quality of service and people there is top notch. my manicure lasted longer than any other manicure (same for pedicure) and my pedicure massage was substantially better than anywhere else around here. Their attention to detail is amazing and I will continue going here moving forward. read more

First impression, friendly technicians, beautiful space, calming music, a lot of polish colors, and new massage chairs that inflate around thighs! (No trashy TV or pop music on repeat, thank heavens.) I was able to get right in. Everyone was friendly, and while I was there a few regulars came in, which is always a good sign. They were greeted by their first names! I chose the basic spa pedicure, which included a soak, polish removal, nail trim, cuticle cleanup, quick foot scrub, polish, and massage while my nails dried. All for a good price, $33! I'd give them 5 stars, if I could have callus removal. She said they no longer can do it. I haven't heard of that yet, and callus removal is a main reason I get pedicures at all. Bummer, but I'll still come again. Kids under 12 can get a pedicure for $25 and manicure for $18. Great pedicure. Thank you, Artistic Nails! read more

Artistic Nails - Simple black gel manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Lake Oswego, Oregon

I had a 1:45 appt. They called at 12:45 and asked if we could come in at 1:30. I said ok even thought it would be tight. Sitting here at 1:42, after rushing in and I was told to wait. Nowhere on there website did I prominently see I had to bring my own set of supplies "for hygiene reasons". They were happy to sell it to me. It's not about the money. It's about the transparency of pricing? Not the price. To be honest it was very inexpensive, so if that is critical, this was good. The person never greeted me, just jumped from the previous customer to me. She also jumped up four more times interrupting my pedi and massage. All good. I got was I paid for - mostly. read more

I have been getting my nails done every 2 to 3 weeks for the past five years and I can hands-down say this has been the worst manicure I have ever had. Please see pictures to understand my frustration in paying $58 for this (also please note this took over 2 hours). The edges are horrible. The dip is terribly uneven and the nail tech made my cuticles bleed : ( read more

Artistic Nails - Everything about this manicure is sloppy, clumpy, uneven, the nail tech made my cuticles bleed : ( - Nail Salons Near Me - Lake Oswego, Oregon

I have given them a shot too many times. Pedicures are always barely a scrub and polish sloppy. I decided to get my nails painted with gel for the first time and it chipped 4 days after. Also note how bad my cuticles look already. Total waste of money and they won't refund for the manicure. They said I could come in and get it fixed but don't want to waste my time on a sloppy fix on a nail. Hate writing a bad review but I depend heavily on reviews and for the cost of nails you want to get a good pedi/mani, so I suggest not doing it here. read more

I was a walk-in customer and happy there was a technician available for my mani/pedi. When I left I was so unhappy and disappointed. Kim was my provider. Every step of the mani/pedi was bare minimal effort with only "cursory" cuticle work. Polish was just as bad with lots of cleaning around the cuticle wiping away excess polish. When I got home and looked closer my cuticles were still dry and ragged. As a new customer I might have thought they would attempt to make an impression so I would return for next time. Sadly, I won't be back. read more

Great experience and it is one of my favorite place. Kim and other ladies are very friendly and did very good job!

The gal that gave my daughter a manicure was rude, short tempered and appeared inconvenienced. My daughter showed a photo of what she wanted and then ignored her request. The polish was old and didn't go on well. She continually scolded my adult daughter about not listening to her instructions while using the light for the gel polish. My manicurist was friendly, helpful and carried on a great conversation. We are bummed because we have attended doctors appointments all week and were looking forward to manicures together. She was in town from NC ad I flew in from AK. I'll attach a photo of mine. read more

A girlfriend came with me and i had a gift card. The moment they heard that, we were treated differently. My friend decided to do a shellac pedi because it lasts longer. Towards the end of her pedicure, they asked her to sit in a regular chair, no shellac polish on yet. The employee proceeds to paint my friends toe nails over her KNEE. Their excuse was they only have ONE portable dryer. Nail salon with 8 pedicure chairs and my friend had to finish her experience extremely uncomfortable. To top it off, they still had her pay FULL PRICE deluxe...WHICH WAS $51! and handled very poorly by the employee. "We do this all the time" Then my shellac started to chip DAY 3! Sunday to Wednesday...will never return read more

I just moved to Portland and had yet to find a good nail salon. The women are super friendly and did a great job with my nails. They had a lot of options to choose from plus we're open to suggestions on design. I highly recommend this place as they did a great job! read more

I've been going to this salon for years. Great service every time. Sometimes I wonder if people who write reviews about salons don't understand cultural differences? I give what I want and I get what I expect - like friendliness! read more

This is the worst salon in town. I stopped in because my favorite salon was closed. There was one customer in there. The lady told me she could do my nails then proceeded to give me a bowl of acetone and told me to pick off my current polish? After sticking my hands in acetone I told her it was burning my hands she proceeded to tell me that if I didn't like it I could leave. That's exactly what I did and will NEVER go back thank you very much! I give this place a minus 5 star read more

Over priced for what you get. Short wait but to paint kids' nails it was $15. My usual place charges $15 for both manicure and pedicure for kids. Then for a basic pedicure with parafan wax was $30. Now I know why this place was so dead.... read more

I've been going to this nail salon for several years and love it! They have lots of comfy pedicure chairs and are well staffed. I can usually get a walk-in appointment. Today I peeked in at closing time with a question and the technician immediately greeted me with a smile and even fixed something for me (that was my fault) on the spot. I am surprised there are not more positive reviews, as this place is always busy and seems to have many regulars. read more

I have been here several times and the Owner I believe did my manicures. A good job. Today I was a few minutes late, the girl who worked on me didn't even say hello. She never smiled once. She had another client after me, but seemed really pissed another girl took her over bc She was working on me. I can appreciate a schedule - they have good prices and are convenient - but I will never go back :(. I don't need that kind of experience when getting a manicure is a luxury for me and I am wanting a nice experience! There is too much competition in the nail world to accept this treatment. I am happy to take my experience somewhere else where I am made to feel welcome. ADDENDUM: Manager did call me a few days later after this review and invited me to come back after a I sent a private snail mail letter - but did NOT offer me a manicure or pedicure, etc.... for free - which - I have to say, is good management. Pretty sure I'm not going back, even tho it is very convenient. There are tooooo many nail salons and much competition for business that I can get great service elsewhere with. read more

I strongly recommend NEVER attending this nail salon. The customer service, polish selection and quality of work is some of the worst I've ever experienced. I came to this nail salon purely out of convenience and the fact that the reviews were good. I'm here in Oregon for medical appointments and I though a manicure would be just the way to relax. The lady who greeted my mother and I was kind but as soon as we sat down for our gel manicure the polish selection was VERY minimal and basically a ton of the same colors from different brands. When I picked out my color I showed her a picture from my Pinterest page like I always do before a manicure and told her how I wanted it to look. She completely ignored my request and grabbed the wrong colors. I then asked for the correct colors and she rolled her eyes sighed and went back for the correct colors. Then she asked what length I wanted my nails and I said don't cut them just shape them rounded. She then filed my nails to nubs. When she began applying the polish it was clear the polish was old and separating. GROSS. After a couple coats it was obvious that the color was not going to turn out. I gave up and she put the top coat on. I was confused because she hadn't done my design yet. She then finished the top coat and walked away. Didn't even finish the manicure. Then she comes back about 7 minutes later and asks if I wanted lotion. Well duh If I'm paying for a manicure I want the whole thing!?!?! Then I looked at my nails and asked again for the design. She looked confused and then got short with me. She rudely sat back in the chair and started ranting about how I never asked for the design and that she already did the top coat. I was fed up but I wasn't going to argue with a manicurist who I was paying to do a good job. I looked at her and told her that when I showed her the picture of what I wanted is when I showed her the design and she argued with me and said that I never said anything about a design. I then looked at my mom confused and when the manicurist walked away to get the supplies my mom said she remembered me telling her the design I wanted. When she came back she slammed the supplies on the table and startled me. When she did the design it looked like absolute GARBAGE. It literally looks like a straight faced smiley face. Please see the pictures I'm going to attach of what I wanted versus what I got. Needless to say this place is garbage, their selection is even worse and to top it all off their customer service is the worst I've ever experienced. read more

Very clean place, great ambience, nice technicians. They've been at this location for almost 17 years so must be doing something right! Always get great service and will continue coming back here read more

Worst pedicure I've ever had. I decided to try this place with a friend on a whim. I was worked on by two people. The first girl tried to tell me how great my feet are and that she doesn't need to buff or cut my cuticles. I think this was just because she didn't want to do it. I've never in my life been told that while getting a pedicure. She basically just removed my polish and trimmed my nails then the other girl took over. She immediately started painting my toes before giving me the massage which I thought was also strange. I think the whole pedicure took 15 minutes. The polish was chipping by the next day. I will never go back there. read more

I have been going here for years, so it's my spot. I go to Tina or Cindy and my mom goes to Kim. Some days are busier than others and they have some issues with scheduling. They do a great job with shellac and take their time. They are very friendly! We love them. read more

I've been here a dozen times in the last year+ and love this place! Nicest staff and skilled technicians. I have had manicures (usually gels) as well as pedicures and have always had a great experience. My nail polish lasts for quite a bit and I think the pricing is a deal. Would definitely recommend this place and will continue to go here! :) read more

My favorite nail place in the area. I've been going to them for years and am never disappointed!

Highly unsatisfied. My FILL cost $50 which was already crazy expensive... Then they didn't even make it a week. I went in for a repair on the crap nail, and it looks worse than if I'd left it half broken and hanging off. I have 9 pointy nails and 1 blob shaped. Then as I'm attempting to escape...I am asked for $5 to cover the repair. "Repair" is worth $5, but I got a worse nail on a set that didn't hold up. So no fix, just more money. read more

Nice enough staff, ignored the majority of the time though. Lady yelled at me about where to set my hands twice after she walked away. Rushed through the entire process, only smiled as I left. Did a TERRIBLE job on a pedicure and shellac manicure for a wedding, had to go to another salon to have it fixed. Nails look two weeks grown out instead of freshly painted. Would NOT recommend. read more

I love Artistic Nails! My pedicure lasted 4 months in great condition. I loved the atmosphere- very small town. They knew the name of all their customers, what they liked, and asked about their families. I look forward to becoming a local here! The pedicurist was easy to talk to, let me relax in silence when I wanted to, and made me feel at home. Great pedicure, even better experience! Only would have been better with a complimentary beverage ;-) read more
