I have had acrylic nails for 23 years. Being extremely soft, they naturally start splitting on the side. Having good acrylic nails PREVENTS this from happening! And my hands look wonderful. I research Yelp very thoroughly reading as many reviews as possible. This takes days. I selected Will and found his work to be IMPECCABLE, extremely meticulous, top top quality, strong and they lasted 5 -6 weeks before one loosened. He has many many years of experience. A four star rating instead of a much deserved 5 star is because of only 2 factors: the liquid compound he uses to mix with the acrylic powder, and the final finishing "sanding smoothing" step of the new acrylic nail . My dad was a Prof of Biochemistry so I am very aware of chemicals. Will unfortunately uses an unusually strong smelling chemical needed to bond the acrylic powder. I have asthma too and could not tolerate the pungency of this chemical. Then in the final filing/ smoothing of the newly bonded acrylic he uses his tiny electric sander which creates a very fine granular dust which bothered my eyes and caused me to cough. My former acrylic nail beautician in Florida did this sanding via hand. This manual process greatly decreases the high volume of dust. I can not ask Will to use a less toxic pungent chemical nor switch to manual sanding. So sadly I must find someone else. He is an EXTREMELY good artisan and craftsman and gave me BEAUTIFUL nails!! read more

I've been visiting Bee Nails for a few months now and really cannot speak highly enough of the quality of work they do. I am a floral designer and am very hard on my nails/hands, and I have never had one break or pop off despite Will making them perfectly thin and pretty long. The quality of service is good, the price is reasonable, and the people are so nice. read more

The proprietors are friendly and professional. They take their time and do a full pedicure, not just paint the nails. I do a lot of walking and hiking and get calluses on my feet--they take care of them. I always leave with my feet looking and feeling great! Not the cheapest pedicure in town but not the most expensive, either. Well worth the price because they do a very thorough job. read more

I've been checking out different nail salons. Will did a fabulous job on my dip powder. He put it on very thin and the oyster color looks beautiful. Even he was commenting on it. I don't know how I'll choose another color, it matches everything. I was a walk in so I had to wait. I was very impressed with this heavy duty power tool he used for someone's pedicure. I want that used on my callus. He owns the place with his sister and is always working. But I'll always ask for him. read more

We got the spa pedicure and I have not had a place that was better. I'm a nurse and always on my feet and somehow they always manage to get me back to baby's feet. They've got all the fancy sanders and tools and know what you need. Amazingly priced for the quality, a gem in the Twin Cities.

I discovered this place as it was within walking distance of my house. The reviews seemed pretty good, and overall, I had an amazing, great experience here! The staff were really sweet and attentive. They even give you a free bottle of water while they pamper you. For $20, you can't beat the pedicure. While they have a $16 deal on Thursdays, it's likely more crowded and noisy. And you know what - you're worth the $20. :) I've been back since - once with my husband (who also got a pedicure) and we are officially fans now! read more

I'm horrified... they completely botched my sister's nails days before her wedding when she doesn't have time to redo them. We didn't bother trying to get a refund but we should have. They also told us they're "not doing acrylics right now." I wish we would have left as soon as we heard that (since my sister's nails are short and she needed added length). Why aren't they doing acrylics..? No explanation for the lack of this standard nail service. The color they suggested is completely sheer and looks basically like clear polish, but when I asked them to redo it in an opaque color, they said "too late now." The polish is also messy and the tech I had doesn't know how to do an almond shape. The two stars are because this place is very cheap and I've had a decently good experience here before. The nail tech I've had seems sweet. But after this horror story, I don't think I'll be coming back. Ugh. read more

Their pricing is really reasonable, and they give a small discount if you pay with cash. I usually get gel pedicures, which stay perfect for like two months!

Henry is the tech I always go to, but I've had others and they're all fantastic. They take their time and listen to requests. I always get a dip manicure and a pedicure.

Bee Nails is an excellent nail salon, and pretty much the only place I trust to consistently keep my hands and feet looking nice. Appearances are deceiving- there is nothing special about the inside of the salon, it's not fancy but you're not there for the decor. You're there to get your nails done, and that is what sets this salon apart. $35 gets you a mani-pedi, takes about 75 minutes approximately, a good value anywhere. But the reason they get five stars is for how thorough and patient Maci & Ann are. My services are never rushed, and the attention to detail is what sets Bee Nails apart. My cuticles look perfect, my feet are smooth, and the polish is always beautiful. The salon has a lot of OPI & Essie, and are fine with bringing your own polish to use with your service. One important tip though-- make an appointment! With just two technicians weekday evenings get busy. Make your appointment a day or two ahead of time & go see why these ladies are the best in St. Paul. read more

People need pay more attention to my hands and feet than I do. I refuse to. I hate doing nails - because I ALWAYS screw them up...my polish bottle ends up on my bathroom floor, red streaks splatter my wall and I'm standing there screaming and pulling my hair out. Meanwhile my nails are all smudged and I'm a hot mess. Enter: Bee Nails. I found out about them from an ad in a local newspaper - the kind that pile up inside of apartment building entryways. I clipped out the coupon, only to find that the $30 mani-pedi deal is offered every day. The store was empty, but it was a Tuesday afternoon. The lady who was working on my nails took her time and was very sweet. The massage chairs for the pedicure were pretty beat up and didn't work super well - however I look past that, because the water was warm, the jets worked, and my toes still look great 2 weeks later. I love my usual salon, but I will definitely keep this place in the queue when I need a change of pace. TIP for TIPS - just bring cash!! read more

We went here for the $30 spa mani/pedi recently. I was skeptical about the low price, but my toes were desperately in need of some attention before heading to the beach! Maci did my nails and Ann did my wife's. Both did an amazing job and were welcoming and friendly. The basic spa pedicure included a short massage and scrub. The manicure was brief but thorough and quality. Although they were able to squeeze us in, I'd definitely recommend making an appointment, they were busy and it's currently just a 2 person show (she mentioned the possibility of more help in the future). Overall; there is nothing fancy about this place, but if what you are looking for is a cheap mani/pedi that doesn't look or feel cheap, this is the place to go! I will be back read more

I was initially drawn here by the $25 gel manicure price, skeptical about the place. Macie did such a professional and beautiful job on my gel manicure! She took excellent care of me and my nails, suggested the perfect color to complement the one I'd chosen (I wanted a glitter fade), and wasn't the least bit irritated when I changed my mind about the color at the last second before she started. I walked in at 3:45 on the Saturday after Christmas Day, and only had to wait 5 minutes for Macie to finish her client before she invited me back. The manicure lasted less than an hour which is impressive considering I had nail art done. The shop is clean, cozy, and her technique was 100% on point. The tools were all clean, and nobody used electric tools on natural nails. All the clients and staff seemed very happy and calm. Wonderful experience, this is my new spot from now on. UPDATE: one of my nails started peeling 2 days later (today), I called and she said to come in and she'd fix it. Since I was there anyway I sprang for a spa pedicure, and the gentleman who did the service (forgot to ask his name) was awesome: very professional, gentle, clean, and didn't bat an eyelash at my fully grown out leg hairs OR my wonky shaped little toenails. $20 gets you a foot soak in aromatic hot water with jets, nail cleaning and shaping, lower leg and foot scrub, gentle exfoliating callous removal, hot oil massage for lower legs and feet, hot towel treatment, and a perfect polish. I'm so excited to be a regular from now on! read more

The salon itself is very unassuming, situated next to a Domino's Pizza. I would compare the experience and skill of the technicians to a five star spa. I had a gel pedicure and manicure with Macie, and she is the most METICULOUS nail technician I've ever sat with. She could (and should) be charging $10-$20 more for her services. I've paid way more for mediocre mani/pedis at the "higher end" salons. A cup of cheap champagne and pretty decor is not worth the shit service. I'll take Bee Nails please! read more

For people who aren't fans of the vibe: this is an independent AAPI owned business. Maybe we can be cool with not every store culture and owner fitting our cookie cutter view of Minnesota. Personally I love that Lena runs this spot her own way with her own attitude in the middle of a pretty white neighborhood, and she's killing it! Oh and duh: my nails are hot.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but I feel other customers should know about my experience…read more On May 31 7:43 PM, Highland Spa Nails texted me asking for feedback about my appointment. The very next day, June 1, I responded with detailed concerns about both my pedicure and full set. I explained that I paid for the upgraded pedicure package, but the water was FREEZING cold, the "extended massage" was practically nonexistent, my calluses were barely addressed, and the overall pedicure felt rushed and incomplete. It was HORRIBLE. I also explained that my nails were crooked, extremely thick, uneven in length, pointed outward, had acrylic buildup around the cuticles, and looked poorly shaped overall. I was disappointed because I spent approximately $160 and felt the quality did not reflect the price. After sending that feedback, I received no response for an entire week. When I followed up, expressing my disappointment with the lack of communication, I was suddenly told that a staff member would be contacted and would reach out to me. I agreed and waited again. Nobody contacted me. I eventually called the salon myself and was told that their guarantee only applies if issues are brought to their attention before leaving the salon or within three days. The problem with that explanation is that I DID contact them within three days--I actually responded to their feedback request the very next day, on June 1. Rather than acknowledging that I had followed their policy, I was repeatedly told, "That's all I can tell you." What makes this even more frustrating is that my appointment ended at closing time, and I felt rushed out as the staff were closing the salon. The doors had already been locked and had to be unlocked for me to leave. I wasn't standing there inspecting every toenail because I trusted that the services I paid for had been completed properly, even though. I may not have gotten the massage I wanted. The quality of the work was disappointing, but the customer service afterward was worse. I made multiple attempts to resolve this privately before posting a review. I have screenshots of the feedback request, my response on June 1, the follow-up messages, and the later conversation where I was told staff would contact me. I understand that mistakes happen. What I don't understand is asking customers for feedback, ignoring that feedback when it's negative, and then later refusing to address the issue by citing a deadline that the customer actually met. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this salon based on either the quality of the service or the way my concerns were handled afterward.

Gel colors are CND, a brand I like and they have a wide array of colors. You can tell all tools are actually sterilized by the pouches they come in. My nail tech was friendly and did an amazing job. No electric tools were used. All nails were shaped perfectly and the polish application was on point. My only gripe would be it takes a little longer than I'm used to. But with that being said I will take that due to the quality. Price wise about $20 more than my other establishment. But my hands were so moisturized as well as my cuticles and it was worth every penny. I will be back!!

I originally rated them 5 stars but my nails were uneven, chipped within a week and also were…read moreweirdly filed. Some parts of my nail weren't even fully painted. I did rounded nails, and somehow some nails were sharp around the edges and underneath, and some of my black french tip were painted unevenly and i left with nail polish on my finger. I had to unfortunately push my review down to one star. There were issues I had originally ignored as I was excited to come in and get my nails done after about 3 years of not doing so and for my birthday dinner later on. I ran into issues like my original tech not showing at my allotted time for my full set after my pedicure was done, and being charged the wrong amount and my husband hearing the staff say I was charged the wrong amount. I had waited a long time for each of my appointments to start also. I ended up having to remove these nails after the given 2 week "fill" time period and ended up discovering that the acrylic used had come off with an acetone soak in a gummy state and realized MMA was used on my nails. It was extremely difficult to remove, time consuming and very painful, and I'm not really wanting to go back to this salon now. I also recall during my appointment, sitting next to clients who notified their techs that they had issues removing their previous sets. I will say their receptionist is a sweetheart who did handle the charging and no-show of my tech wonderfully and apologized, and they were super attentive to us, so this is not on them. I do not know who supplies the original kits for the techs, but MMA should never be used on our nails.

Used to love this place. Today I went for a gel pedi and the tech rushed through and my nails…read moredidn't completely cure. She was also pretty agressive with the drill and now my cuticles are inflamed. Will not be back

I am 70 years old and booked a facial so I could look better for photos at my wedding 5 days later…read more I chose one on the advice of the person I spoke with. I let her know I just wanted my skin to look a bit better, no miracles expected. I typically have good skin and have never had issues with facials at other places. I let the lady who did the facial know that same information just before the procedure. The treatment was painful and I questioned that and was told that was normal. Result-I have burns all over my face. I have no idea how long this will take to heal. I went back in today for assistance and am still waiting on the owner to help.
