I went there this morning! With a friend! She knew the ladies there and set me up! I requested a pedicure and they immediately sat me at a chair. I got the $58 pedicure which included a wax treatment and 10 minute massage. They quality was very good and they honored all of my requests! All in all it was a very good job! read more

The service at this place is terrible. Not all of the technicians are rude but I've experienced two rude technicians so far. It felt like they were doing me a favor by doing my nails. 4 days after I got a gel pedicure the polish chipped and my nail broke shortly after. Anywhere else, my gel pedicure lasts for 4-6 weeks! I came back in and I was basically told it was my fault lol Never again! read more

Kim has been doing my nails for over 16 years--I won't go to anyone else. Thank you, Kim, for your professionalism, attention to detail, and years of great service! read more

I just moved here recently, and was so relieved to find a reliable place to get my eyebrows done. Usually I go every two weeks. While there, I met Kim, who did a fantastic job on my eyebrows. They've been crooked for some time now, but she managed to fix them for me! I always feel so confident after I get them done. Every time I go, the staff are so kind to me, and they always remember the names of their clientele. I always feel very welcome. Today I got my eyebrows done, and had a manicure to clean up my nails. Not only do the results look fantastic, but I left feeling so light and happy after having such a friendly conversation with Kim. This place genuinely value its customers, and the employees not only do a fantastic job, but also treat everyone with kindness and dignity. I know they have new management, and new employees so it seems like whatever they're doing is really working! I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a nail place to regularly visit! Thank you Kim and thank you Beautiful Nails! I am wishing you all the prosperity, and a return in all the kindness you extend towards your regulars! read more

Beautiful Nails - Brow Waxing. Made my eyebrows even again! Blacked out for safety. - Nail Salons Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

I wish I would have read the reviews before going here. Everything was rushed and the work was very low quality. Left my cuticles in poor shape and drew blood using the cuticle scissors. I do not recommend this business. read more

I have been going to Beautiful Nails for many years for both manicures and pedicures. They have always done a fantastic job and were reasonably priced. The salon is now under new management with new nail technicians, and much higher prices. If you are a walk-in, you are likely to get one of the newer techs and they do not do as good a job as the techs who have been at the salon for years. I recommend making an appointment in advance and locking in with Yvonne, Kim or Jackie. Otherwise, you may leave disappointed as I have for the past few visits. read more

The ladies are very attentive, they remember each of their customers and always attend to our needs, they even waited for me after closing since I was stuck in traffic. Couldn't ask for a better mani pedi for the price and ease of parking. I even take my neighbor here now. read more

Horrible! The place had skin all kinds of skin all over the floor at the pedicure chairs. Y Here was no massage included...just lotion was put on my feet and legs. While there a customer (average size) lady down on the waxing bed and the bed collapsed. I could go n, but I think you get the gist. read more

Yvonne and Cinthia were very attentive, and with great skills! Got my mani and pedi with them right before attending a big event and the nails turned out perfect!! Great work ladies! Will definitely come back! read more

Omg PLEASE DONT COME HERE!! They're so fucking gross first of all I got my nails (gel) done like not even three days ago and I had to peel them off because they were lifting and I also got a a pedicure and they're so not sanitary, they literally used the same pumice rock from prior customers it was brown and gross don't come here and waste your money you'll regret it the people here are worse too bad service no good quality didn't not meet my service read more

This place is disgusting. All the items that were used were brown or had stains on them. The foot pumice sponge was DULL and gross. Felt like they were rubbing a bar of soap on my foot. I guess $35 for a gel pedicure you shouldn't expect much. Don't forget they didn't enforce masks or take temperature or log for covid measure. Gross. Never going back. read more

I've been continuing to visit this salon, due to the reason I mentioned in my first review: the prices are the best in the area, and though I could pay higher, I'd be getting the same quality experience. So Beautiful Nails has become my manicure/pedicure/waxing salon of choice. Nina is the best and I always book an appointment with her (I can tell you who not to see as well). Yvonne (I think that is her name) is also very good. It is best to book appointments here, because they get so busy. In fact, if they are doing a walk-in, and their appointment shows up, the nail techs here leave the walk-in to work on the appointment. Or if you are not a regular customer and you have an appointment, but the regular with an appointment shows up, they will also leave you to work on the regular customer. So customer service can be a bit of an issue here. Nail polish colors are OK, I can usually find one that I want, but I prefer to bring my own. Organization of colors is not good, but probably because they are so busy. Pedicures ($19) here are the best - the dead skin is scraped of your feet. My feet have never been so soft, and they stay smooth for weeks with regular, at-home maintenance (a pumice stone daily). Even if you wear heels like I do, your feet stay smooth. Both manicures and pedicures have been long-lasting, and the waxing is fine. However, I will not get my brows waxed here because they do not understand "Keep them thick, I just want them cleaned up." If they could wax my brows correctly and there was not a customer service issue, I would give 5 stars. However, I will continue to return to Beautiful Nails because of the great pedis and great prices. read more

I am sad to say that I will not be able to return to Beautiful Nails again, I tried to give them every opportunity to win my business but after my last nail set it is clear that they just don't cut it. After going there for several "fills" in the past I already knew they by their own omission do not know how to fill correctly on a pink and white. So with that being said I told them up front that I wanted a new set, the girl started soaking my nails off but rather than work to take them off like most she played on her phone most of the time and kept running to the back. I picked most of them off myself just so I could hurry this process along. She then started on my nails I asked her what she was better at applying "pink and while gel or acrylic tips" she said acrylic tips as she does this all the time. I haven't had acrylic tips for years as I prefer the pink and white but I was limited on time and thought what the hey, besides she said they are cheaper. Well I was not pleased with how they looked once she was done, the white tips are entirely too long because she put them in the middle of my nail bed. They the nails have started to lift after only four days and she charged me $45. I could have gone just about any place in town and got a perfect set of pink and white for $50 if not cheaper. I hate that I have to report such things about this salon, they are close, within walking distance to my place the prices are usually good but I don't think I am like anyone else when I say I would rather pay more for pretty nails and better customer service and Beautiful nails has neither. read more

This review is for pedicure only. I visited beautiful nails this afternoon (work from home haha). Even though this place has bad reviews I wanted to give it a shot only because it's literally 2 mins away from my apartment. I was instantly greeted when I came in. It was pretty empty with only 2 other customers. I immediately choose my nail color. My pedicure session was well paced, and the lady who took care of me was exceptional. She even gave me a little massage in the end. I didn't feel rushed at all. Overall it was a great experience. I'll come back soon. read more

I like this place. It's not too expensive; you pay for what you get! The only thing disturbing is they ask you to cash app the manager all the funds inste of ringing the register, theres no receipt for your purchase but the cash app transaction. Anyway they are hard working women and I like this place. Could use a spring cleaning tho. read more

I have came to get my nails and feet done here twice and both times the same tech did my feet and I had to ask that she stopped. She cut my actual skin and toes on both feet and not the cuticles themself and then another tech doing my nails is rushing because its close to closing that she butchers my middle and ring fingers. I would not recommend that anyone comes here they are u professional and doesn't do a good job at providing the services requested. read more

Well it was empty midday I should've taken that as sign. I spent 90 dollars got a mediocre pedicure a few taps for massage and my nail tips were popping off 2 days later. read more

You get what you pay for. They have low prices but also low quality work. Some of their artists don't cover my whole nail. Sometimes they forget my top coat Sometimes they give me the wrong design It's always something... read more

Gave this place a second chance and was highly disappointed once again. My nails are uneven, polish is messy and lumpy, and the tech didn't even try to get the polish off of my cuticles. Absolutely my last time going here, except for tomorrow when I go back to have them take this crap off. Never again read more

Love this place! Best customer service. All technicians are awesome, however, Honey is my girl when it comes to S&S.

I got a powder dip mani and regular pedi, by two different techs. The tech who did my pedi was careless, rough, and unfriendly. The paint job is messy, no better than I could do myself at home. My mani tech was much more personable and put more effort into her work. The mani is not great, but decent. The salon, however, is not well kept. Dirty floors that look like they never get swept or mopped, mismatched furniture covered in lots of...splatters. I would have given one star based on how filthy the place is, but the second star is for my mani tech who at least tried. read more

This is a full length review and honest consideration of this salon: I have been to this past nail salon for three years, with my mother when she started going and I got my first pedicure here. I was always happy with the consistent service and the way they would perfectly do my manicure and pedicures 100% of the time, until June 1, 2018. That Friday was a little busy, but I didn't mind waiting. It only took three minutes for me to get started on with my regular pedicure. I was helped by a girl who had never worked on me before (I've gotten my nails done from Kim to everyone in that place) but I thought this girl amongst three other ones, were new. I wanted my acrylics removed and a regular pedicure. (The pedicure was okay, just wish it had another coat of color) The removal of my acrylics was the worst part. I didn't mind being patient due to the tools not working properly but my right index finger was bleeding after being filed so hard. (And the tissue underneath was exposed) The girl atleast asked if I was okay, apologized and asked if I needed some alcohol wipes to remove the blood but all and all, I sort of regret that decision into coming here. I did give her a $5 tip for atleast trying to help be and for her friendly service.. but I might not be back at this place, my nail never since has been throbbing like crazy. read more

ma and my daughter went to beautiful nail in landmark plaza and the owner Kim did my daughter toes my daughter toe nail was gone she put a nail tip on her toe and didn't cut it or shape it to look like the other one so she got two different toe nails it looks retarded and the lady that did mines I ask for a full set of nail tips on my toes she make a set with the accriylic instead looks dum and they gave us a half as pedicures and changes us $195.00 read more

Honey is the best tech in the salon and Alexandria as far as I'm concerned and is best tech in the salon I'll give her my money any day she's always great and clean never had an issue and has great conversation you have to break the ice read more

Walk in welcomes. Staff was friendly and helped me pick the color. It was very clean and neat and I'll stick to it because I loved it read more

Beautiful Nails - Very satisfied with my nails. Done by Honey - Nail Salons Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

Came here over the weekend to get a pedicure. That was a pleasant experience so I came back a few days later to get a fresh full set (acrylic) and to get my eyebrows done..... Nails- Mediocre job at best. Eyebrows- I've definitely had better but no real complaints. The 2 stars is because 5 of my nails literally popped off 2 days later. All the nails on my right hand just came off as if they were press ons. They didn't break or crack or chip, they literally just came right off. So I went back and handed all 5 nails to a technician and asked them to redo my right hand. They did (no charge, which is why they were able to get 2 stars). However, I still have to go home and remove the extra glue and polish left around my fingers. I'm really bad at getting names but I had to do the same thing the first time as well. update: Got home and 2 nails off the left hand popped off! Went back to the salon the same lady who fixed my right hand decided to just redo my entire left hand. The customer service was much better... I appreciate her fixing my nails. This shop could definitely use some positive changes. read more

Prices: Manicure - $10 Pedicure - $19 Mani/Pedi - $27 This is the cheapest nail salon around. But because its so cheap, you might have to wait so I suggest that you make an appoint or go early in the morning. Don't try to come on a Friday and get upset because you couldn't get in for a cheap quickie. That would be your fault for having those expectations! I'm a polish crack addict so I love that I can have an inexpensive place to run to to get a quick pampering in. I bring my own colors and top coat. So I really don't have any issues. It's not a spa so just know that you get what you pay for. I make the most of my $27 and I sometimes just go in for a polish change and it's only $15 - FTW!!! read more

Love this place a nice hidden gem. I like this place, it is family friendly and professional. They're open to feedback. I've been coming here for a few years because of the service/ price points. read more

TERRIBLE! I will never go back. They are inexpensive, but you get what you pay for Got my gel nails done here less than 2 weeks ago. Five have already come off. The gel was applied over my cuticles and left that way. Nails were thick and oddly shaped. Was not happy with my eyebrow wax either. She did not take time to tweez or cut hairs. Left alot of wax on my skin. Feel bad giving them such an awful review since they were nice people. read more

If I could leave zero stars I would. I've been here a couple of times, and almost every time was terrible. My first time going there, the man who did my nails asked me to pay before he did them, when no one else was asked, and he did a horrible job. The manicure started to chip away after two days. The second time, a young girl did mine and they were wonderful. And my final visit there, the same man from my first visit put me in the pedicure chair, with my feet in cold water for 20 minutes before I asked him if he was going to turn the machine on. He turned it on without putting anything in it or putting warm water, so I left without getting any services. You never know what you'll get from this place. Even though the prices are a little cheaper than others-it's not worth it. read more

Really liked this place. Nothing fancy, but I got a great mani and brow wax for $22! It's in a strip mall, the employees were friendly and they had great color choice. read more

I've been going to this place for a year! I love all the ladies but I gets nails done by Jackie. Being a nurse I need nails that are done well and won't chip! I enjoy their selection of mood nail gel nail polish. I go here every twice, I'm not a fan of crowds so try to go on a weekday morning. Friday and Saturdays become really crowded. Thanks ladies! read more

So I've given this place many chances and it's always a hit or miss more misses . I am a regular nail visitor and I'm mainly disappointed. My nails either broke days after being done or the shape had to be proffered the 2nd or third time around . I never walked out completely happy . It's been a waste of 60-70 every time I go and now have decided to stop wasting my money in this rushed place read more

I came here wanting something simple..remove my old set and get a new one, I left with the worst pain in my nails from the nail tech being very rough and the sloppiest paint job ever. I told her coffin and this clearly doesn't look like it has any shape at all. I will not waste my time or money coming here again. This place used to be great and is now honestly just sh*t.. i don't know how this place is still open. Thanks a lot for my "beautiful nails"...they look terrible. read more

Actually is cero star. This is the worst nails place ever. I made a reservation and when I was there they told me to sit in one of the massage chair, and then they just left me there. Somebody came without reservations and the one who suppose to take care of me, took care of the other costumer without reservation. And when I ask her she just told me that I have to wait for 15 min. Also she when to waxing the other person. It was very unprofessional. Places like that should be close. read more

Worst nail salon in the DMV area. I got tips and a spa pedicure. First of all, the spa pedicure was a waste of money. They claimed to give massages for that but all she did was rub the lotion in once. Ive been to other places where they spend 15-20 minutes on just massaging your legs and feet for a spa pedicure. As far as the nail polish it started chipping off the day after!!! Second of all, when i got my tips done they started falling off 2 days afterwards! i went back furious and the lady who did my nails (Kim one of the managers) claimed she wasn't the one who did it. She didn't even offer to fix my toes which I was complaining about. WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! VERY RUDE AND DONT SPEND TIME TAKING CARE OF YOUR NEEDS! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE SERVICE. read more

Noi has been my go-to for many years. I am never less than satisfied when I get my gel manicure and pedicure with her. Shes quick but my cuticles are always so clean! The place can get very busy. I always call ahead to make sure Noi can squeeze me in. The stars mostly go to her. The salon itself could be more tidied up. But I feel assured, safe, and clean with Noi. read more

Beautiful Nails is always hopping, particularly on weekend evenings. The nail techs do a wonderful job, and the atmosphere is very pleasant. With $10 manicures and $19 pedicures, it is easy to get gussied up at a reasonable price. Waxing is also available. read more

I've been to this salon twice and my pedicures have always been great. Guys can't have unkempt feet just as much as girls. Anyway, the ladies here are always very nice and easy to get a long with. The first time I came, it was a busy day. Every seat was occupied except for one, and I was the lucky client for that pedicure chair. The owner did my pedicure. She was SOOO nice. I felt like I was getting a pedicure from one of my favorite Aunties or something. read more
