I rarely leave negative reviews, but I was genuinely disappointed with my experience here. I waited nearly 50 minutes past my appointment time, and once I finally got in the chair, I felt like my service was rushed if they weren't capable of giving me what I asked for they should've denied me service. I showed an inspiration photo with delicate details, gold bead accents, and finely sculpted flowers. Unfortunately, what I received looked nothing like what I asked for. The gold beads were replaced with a glitter line, the detailing was thick and imprecise, and the overall design lacked the clean, elegant look of the reference photo. It honestly felt like the design was attempted without the necessary skill to recreate it. The most concerning part is that the 3D gel flowers are already tacky, lifting, peeling, and feel squishy, which makes me question whether they were fully cured before I left the salon. I paid $100 for this set, and I expected much better craftsmanship and attention to detail. If recreating the design wasn't within the technician's skill set, I would have much rather been told that upfront than leave with a set I'm extremely unhappy with. I won't be returning. I just hope this feedback encourages the salon to be honest about what designs can realistically be recreated and to ensure every client receives the quality they're paying for. read more

Tried this location after going to the Uptown location for several years. Received a very nice pedicure from Lele. I saw a lot of bad reviews but went anyway and I had a great experience. Not sure why people can't just speak up AT the appointment and advocate for yourself instead of leaving unhappy. It's very possible to correct mistakes as they are happening. These people work really hard and I appreciate them! read more

Daisy Nails - THIS is how it's done! Thanks Lele! - Nail Salons Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

got a a pedicure &manicure and wax it like every time the price changes and I noticed they skip things in service and she put the brush back in drawn so it made me think what the hell did she just do it was kind of fast so but she definitely skipped my scrub read more

I used to love daisy nails, it used to be my go to nail shop when I was getting my nails done regularly. I was very excited to go again to get my nails done. Alas it turned out badly. 3 fingers got cut when my cuticles were being done and still somehow my cuticles were super messy when I looked at them when I left. I had to soak my nails and push my cuticles back myself. I would not recommend this place anymore. read more

I've been getting pedis on and off for several years at Daisy. A very good service at a reasonable price.

First my nails were cut so short that they hurt. I didn't want them short but when the woman took out her clippers and said "short?" She had already finished my hand before I could see what she was doing. I didn't mind them clipped a little but she assumed short. Now they are so short, not only do they hurt but I have no nails to use for things like peeling. Then she disappeared while my nails were drying under the dryer. I asked another woman how long I needed to wait. She came over, looked at my hands and said I could go. Within 5 minutes of leaving my nails were scuffed. They were not dry. I have brought friends and family members to daisy. It is convenient to where I live. I will not go back. read more

What a find! Beautiful and spotless, great prices, good work. Very friendly too. Couldn't be more impressed!!!

I like Daisy Nails because they put on 2 coats of polish but I may look for a new salon because they want customers to call ahead for an appt. They will take walk-ins but there were people with an appt coming in who had to wait over 30 minutes because they were with walk-in's! Super confusing. They don't like walk-ins so make sure to call ahead. read more

The staff at Daisy Nails are welcoming and friendly, the entire place is clean and comfortable, they have a great selection of colors, can do all kinds of nail art, and the prices are very reasonable. I got a manicure & pedicure, I upgraded to one of the pedicure packages they offer. The manicurist Jan was gentle, thorough, and checked in periodically to make sure everything was comfortable and as I expected. I had a lovely experience and will be going back. read more

I have going to Daisy Nails for over a year and I am very pleased with this salon. I would like to echo what has been stated in previous reviews about the cleanliness of the salon, the pleasant atmosphere and the friendlessness of all the staff. I am especially pleased with Kim she does an outstanding work, however you can not go wrong if you choose to use any of the other staff members. I have recommended other friends, family members and acquaintances to this establishment and I will continue to do so in the future. Another big boom is that they honor their appointment times, no long unnecessary waiting. read more

Love Daisy Nails! I was out on the street when looters broke in, I tried my best to stop them. I yelled at them to stop, used OPI isn't worth all that trouble. They didn't listen. I even tried to text the owners, no luck. I am so happy you're back up and I am glad it wasn't as bad as other businesses. read more

I was reluctant to try this place due to its mediocre Yelp ratings, but needed to find a new nail place after my last pedicure debacle at Lena Nails (see previous review). I'm not super fancy, but I expect to leave my pedicures with 1) trimmed cuticles, 2) softened calluses, 3) a decent paint job, and 4) no bleeding. Daisy Nails came through on all counts! My technician was polite and thorough, and didn't skimp on any of the steps. Some have complained about the prices. I was not charged extra for polish, though I did agree to a $5 upcharge for callus softening (which I agree should come with the price of a basic pedi). There was a $1 charge to use a credit card, which was clearly stated on the service menu. So, all told, my service came to $33 ($27 for the pedi, $5 for the callus softening, and $1 cc charge). It was a good pedi, so I'm not mad about it. read more

I found this place on Yelp and thought I'd give it a try. I was a walk in and only waited 5 minutes till I was in the pedicure massage chair. I don't remember the names of the women who worked on me but I would give them both 5 stars! I was able to create my own rhinestone nail design and she did it exactly how I told her. The price was AMAZING compared to other shops out there. It's been exactly 1 month since I got my nails done and not one has broken and only a few rhinestone came off. I get compliments on my days everyday! I'm extremely pleased. read more

I have been here many times and consistently receive great service. Prices are very reasonable. And atmosphere is great - a lot different than how you might judge the place when looking at it from the outside (appears to be 'hole in wall' but is really quite nice). Everyone who works here aims to please, and I've never had a nail technician disappoint. I recommend Bebe (sp?). Usually get a standard pedi but got deluxe pedi today and I'm never going back. Salt scrub Devine, lotion & rub, and best of all hot towel treatment. All for only $35! Totally worth the extra $. Standard pedi is only $20. read more

I just tried to get a manicure here and it was outrageously bad. Like, so bad I got a Yelp account *specifically* to review this place. The nail polish was diluted with something--after two coats, it looked like I'd colored on my nails with highlighter. Not shiny, and you could see my nail beds clearly through the paint. It was a polish I know and love, too, and it doesn't normally look like that! My manicurist told me any issue was my fault, because I chose a light color. She also cut me while trimming my cuticles and scolded me for bleeding. I ended up just asking her to take my polish off and I left. She didn't apologize or offer me a refund?! It was totally wild. DON'T go here. read more

NO HOT TOWELS!! I don't look for much when getting a mani and pedi, I normally go with the cheapest I can find. That's where this place is great 10 dollar mani, 20 dollar pedi, unfortunately they don't offer them at a discount when you get them together. Given that fact I decided to upgrade my pedi to a Daisy pedi when meant I got sea salt scrub. It was nice but not worth the extra 5 bucks. Now the two things I most look forward to when getting pampered are the massage part of the mani-pedi and getting draped with a nice hot towel. and there was NO HOT TOWELS!!!! I was so disappointed. I felt rob of the warmth and luxury of the hot towel. All and All it's a clean place, semi-friendly, and they did a nice job, but I will not go back simply due to the fact of their lack of NICE HOT TOWELS. read more

Man I wanted to like this place. At least 3 friends of mine go here and the prices are about as near to what I was used to in NY/NJ, but alas, the end result was soooo not. Now I don't care much what the inside of my nail salons look like. I really don't. What I care about is being able to relax during a pedicure (massage chairs help immensely with this and Daisy has them. This is good) I care how my nails look when it's done. (They looked like I did them myself. Not so good.) But what I didn't KNOW I cared about is NOT having my cuticle gouged out with cuticle scissors. Yeah, that's on the top of my list now. THE VERY TOP. Ooooooowwwwwwww. There is literally still a HOLE in the cuticle of my big left toe 4 weeks later. 4 WEEKS. Even if the polish job had been the very best of my entire life, it wouldn't have been worth the mutilation of my poor toe. Oh and by the way... there is no WAY the 2 sec salt scrub they give you in the upgraded "Daisy pedicure" is worth 5 dollars. Pahlease. read more

If no stars was a thing I would do it. This place is staffed horribly and one of the employees (a small women) doesn't know how to shape or cut nails evenly. They are very rude and gross. When they mess up don't expect them to fix it because they won't. read more

I think that this is my favorite place to get my nails done in Uptown. Somehow this is the tiniest parking lot in the area with so many businesses using these few spots, but I have always been really lucky to not have this be much of a problem (Fingers crossed that it stays this way). The place is clean, the people are nice and they have a million regular polish and a million and one gel polish colors and I've never had a bad experience here. -1 star because they charge you $1 for using a credit/debit card for anything under $40 and $2 for anything over $40. This is one of my biggest business pet peeves. No need to make an appointment. You usually won't have to wait long if you're a walk-in. read more

Their prices are great. They have the skill but the products are not good. Building/Appearance: The facility is nicer on the inside than it appears from the street. The inside could have been warmer as it was 12 degrees (F)outside and I was a little cold while getting my manicure. Parking: On street parking is not the most convenient. Service: I visited on a Thursday around noon. My service started right after I selected my polish. The pedicure water temperature was warm. I liked that the deluxe pedicure included a salt scrub and a clay mask for the feet. I felt that ample time was spent on my pedicure. They even use a Dremel for fast filing. Products: I did not like that the nail polish options were limited (compared to other places I've been) and the polish in many of the containers was 80% empty. They had polish from Jade, O.P.I, China Glaze, Finger Paints and few others that I didn't recognize. China Glaze and Finger Paints are polishes that can be purchased from Sally's Beauty Supply Store. In my experience these 2 polish brands are okay when it comes chipping on natural nails. I expected more from the products. I got a gel set on my natural nails and the container clearly read "non-sticky" the polish was sticky afterwards for at least 30 minutes. The gel cracked the same day and began to chip. Overall: The service is great but if I go back again I will bring my own nail polish and topcoat, which sort of defeats the purpose of going to a professional. read more

Worst pedicure experience. And I'm not an overly picky person. She pumiced the skin off my heel and 10 days later it still hadn't managed to heal. Painful and I've been limping from it. She knew what she'd done because I jumped from the pain but she acted as if it were nothing. Then my leg massage lasted for all of 4 minutes tops- for both legs and with no one waiting in line. I'd never go there again. This woman was not trained enough. read more

I got my acrylics done 4 days and they're already lifting and falling off. Horrible place i'm never going here ever again.

I've been looking for a good $20 pedicure in Mpls, and after inhaling too many toxic fumes at KE, I tried this place. The good news is I got a very decent $20 pedicure, without being overwhelmed by toxic fumes. Then a strange thing happened when I paid: the bill was $20. I handed the lady two twenties and asked for $15 back (i.e. I wanted to leave a $5 tip). She was like, "$10 back?" I swear to god we went back and forth like this until I was just like, "Okay, give me $10 back." Bottom line: I will go back to this place, but will bring exact change so I don't feel swindled out of a bigger tip than I intend to give! read more

This is a nail salon to avoid. As another person commented, a tech who cuts into your finger or toe is NOT acceptable in ANY way. Almost drew blood. They are high pressure and hard sell extra unwanted services. It's not too clean inside and I wouldn't go again. Ouch. read more

Friendly and nice/efficient place. Very clean. Easy parking and fair prices. Will come back!

This is my fav. place on lake st. People are nice, shop is clean and they do a good job. EXCEPT for one man. He was the only available so i went to him for a fill. I wanted a french and had black before. He didnt take off all the black nail polish so you could see it under the clear acrylic. And it was just sloppy looking. Then the design he did was hideous. Bow is the man to go to. Or a younger lady. They're really talkative and do a good job. read more

So like most smart people I read the reviews before making the long drive to south Mpls I called two hours to make an appointment Lady on the phone was pleasant. When I arrived the same lady greeted me. I remember her voice. BUT the actual tech was RUDE!! I have extremely sensitive feet. So I told her and instead of taking that into consideration she was rough. Like I had made her mad or something. Mind you I greeted her with hi how are you. She ignored me. When she asked me gel or polish is where everything went to hell. She become angry and with the biggest attitude she told me that she was going to charge me more for polish! WTH??? I asked her wait! What? She look at me dead in my eyes and said yea. Did you not read the sign?! I answered I didn't see that on there. By now I'm upset and I told her never mind. She then was trying to take back her funky attitude and what she said. I told her straight out that her customer service SUCKS! " you're not doing me a FREE service!" This is your job! If you don't want to service me I'm sure I can find another place that will happily do so. By now the manager is next to me asking me what's wrong so I told her and she gave her a look. And right there they stared talking about me in their language. I flat out said excuse me that's rude. The manger said your right sorry but the other one didn't stop. I'm almost 100% sure she was cursing me out in her language just by the way it sounded. I definitely DO NOT RECOMMEND this place. read more

I came here on a recent trip to Minneapolis and was SO disappointed. The man who did my mani/pedi rushed it - barely used base or cover and I had to remind him to clean around my nails when he was done. They then sat my under a dryer for 10 mins and guess what - within three days not just my manicure but also my pedicure had completely chipped. And, underneath my nails are ruined because they used some electric drill--type smoother. Do not go here. There are plenty of better nail salons in Uptown. read more

They don't use real gel for "gel nails". Plus they charge extra for a gel polish on top of the extra you're already paying for the so-called "gel nails". It's basically an acrylic set, using clear acrylic. Not only that but the shaping was awful. I left with round crooked balls of acrylic on my nails. This place use to be good but I don't know what happened. What a rip off and waste of their good customer service. Not to mention, I was bleeding on my cuticle from their filing job. Luckily, I didn't get an infection. read more

This place has absolutely no respect for your time. I came here with a group of 4 for a bachelorette party to get our nails done. We made an appointment for 1:30 and arrived early at 1:15. When we arrived we were told it would be 20 minute wait- no big deal! Throughout the course of waiting for OVER AN HOUR we were told "10 minute wait" about 4 times. Even after asking many times we kept just being told "sorry, we're busy," but again- we had an appointment. Honestly, don't waste your time here. Needless to say, we walked out after waiting an hour and 15 minutes and they did nothing to even try to stop us or make it better throughout. They made it seem like our fault, not theirs. If I could, I'd give 0 stars. read more

I've been to this nail place twice for a pedi and it's been a surprising great experience. You cannot beat the price of $20 but the quality of the pedi and the attention to detail was totally unexpected. The place is very clean and the staff used what appeared to be sanitized tools. The only down side is the chemical nail smell is strong the moment you walk in (isn't that true of all nail places, though?). read more

This is my go-to nail salon. Great service and fabulous prices. Best of all - it's CLEAN!

I have used this Daisy Nails for pedicures for years and have been satisfied. Last week I went in to have gel nail polish removed and to have a basic manicure. In a word it was AWFUL. The man (who is in charge) removed the gel polish with a pliers looking tool and WITHOUT soaking them first like every other place does. Needless to say, my nails are now stripped and look AWFUL. Then for the new manicure, the nails were cut and filed unevenly even after pointing our the flaws. It was so bad that when I got home I had to correct them myself. The polish job was so messy that again, I could have done better myself. Overall, I paid $10 to have a man use a pliers to pull off my gel polish and another $20 to have a really really bad polish job that I eventually removed one day later because it looked so terrible. Despite my years of coming here as a customer, this was the last straw and I will NOT be back to them, even if it means driving 5 miles out of my way to go somewhere else. Very unfortunate!!! Very disappointed. read more

Worst experience ever. First, I called for a pedicure and they said: "Sure, come in" , then I walk in and I'm barely greeted and the woman is not happy to see me and proceeds to speak in Mandarin (I think) about me for a solid 2 mins while I stand there feeling awkward. Then she just says: "Pick color" , I say "no color please" and she huffs at me. then I sit in the COLD water and proceed to get a sad pedicure for just 18 mins. This is not my first time going here, but will absolutely be my last. Horrible customer service, horrible quality and overall dingy looking place. read more
