My wife, my daughter, my wife's friends, and myself have utilized Escape Nails for over 3-years. We travel from Auburn, WA just for Escape Nails. This review is based on our personal service and experience. Facility: 4/5 The facility has always been well kept with a professional appearance. Occasional, the temperature may get a little warm. Staff: 5/5 Tammy, Tow, and Dany...we love you guys. All practitioners know their trade well, and have always gone above and beyond to satisfy customers. Tammy, will converse about anything. If you don't laugh while being pampered, you need help! Tow...her smile will brighten your day. A little less vocal, but a heart of Gold. Dany...great guy! Quiet professional. Price: 5/5 In comparison to their competitors, we are happy with the price we pay for the product we receive. To the point of providing a gratuity no less than $10. Product: 5/5 After well over 20-30 visits, there has never been a product that my wife, my daughter, my wife's friends, or myself...have not been 100% pleased with. Customer Service: 5/5 As soon as you walk in the door, you are greeted by someone. Typically Tammy. Some customers may be bothered by the momentary pulse in their service, but we understand the dynamics...as it displays true interest and genuine customer appreciation. As soon as the staff figures out what it is you desire, they return to the previous client's needs expeditiously. I have never seen dirty instruments or supplies used. I have witnessed the cleansing of used chairs, with very sanitary techniques. The chairs provide a variety of massage options and work well. I typically fall asleep UNEQUIVOCALLY....I recommend/refer Escape Nail Salon for your nail needs. read more

I called asking if they had time for a fill and they said yes so I showed up. I was seated as they had other patrons. No big deal. Once it's my turn, I explain what I wanted, they understood and began to shorten my nails. First issue, they didn't remove all of the old color.. which was black. They shaved skin off of my fingers because they were trying to be quick so almost every finger has little bucks in it. There's polish all over my cuticles, none of the shapes match, the lengths don't match. The grinder tip kept burning into my skin because they kept missing my nail. Only 2 fingers were clear coated on one hand and when I brought it up, I was argued with in front of everyone. At the end, she came over and tried to show me that they all had clear coat by saying "if it didn't, it would be sticky". So I asked her how she could tell the difference after putting oil all over them but after second thought I thanked them for getting me in and left. Two stars because they got me in and there's polish on my nails. read more

8 days after getting a full set (gel) all my nails came off. I don't know if she didn't put enough glue on my nails or what. She was too busy watching and listening to the news. Never going here again! read more

So I went in this place about 2 months ago to get a fill, well not even 24 hours later my pointer finger nail falls completely off. And this was a brand new nail because the one prior had fallen off as well, but all in all the customer service was alright even though they were talking in whatever language the entire time read more

I stumbled on this place on accident and was so happy! It was 90 degrees outside and inside it was so cool and relaxing. The inside of the salon is pretty standard, nothing that stood out, but it was clean. They are so sweet here! Very welcoming and very nice to everyone who called in and walked through the door. The gal did a beautiful job on my ballerina shape full set. I think she was the owner. I'll definitely be back. This place made me feel very welcome and did exactly what I wanted. Price was awesome as well. She removed old shellac, did a full set with gel polish over the top: $35! read more

They have this adorable little pink chair for little girls to get their pedi's in. Overall it's your typical nail salon but the people working there were very nice. Would def go back again. read more

Tam and Daniel are my absolute favorite nail tech-duo. I even bring my fiancé here with me and they take great care of us. They are fairly priced and give a warm welcome every time I come in. She waxes my eyebrows as well. She's also getting more certification in eyelash extensions, which I'm excited to try. They use quality products and always take the extra time to make sure your nails and skin look perfect. read more

I may have finally found my go to nail salon! Came in today for the first time to see if they could fix a bad set from another salon. She got me in on a Sunday and did exactly what I asked for. She is very kind and clearly cares about everyone who walked in. Great service and great job! I will be back for sure! read more

Loved this place! For a nail salon, I have really been impressed with the service and cleanliness. My classmates and I went there to celebrate, after finishing out our last final for nursing school. I called a couple of hours ahead, to see if they could accomodate 6 ppl at 1 pm. I asked if it was okay to bring in some treats, as were celebrating something. I didn't specify, nor make a big deal about it. When I arrived they had set up a big table with balloon-printed table cloth laid out. It made the afternoon more special! I appreciated the extra effort and thoughtfulness on there part. On top of that, I noticed they even called in extra staff to accomodate 6 of us, so we weren't waiting to take turns. They were efficient, very friendly, and accomodating. Not to mention extra clean! All the chairs are big, comfy, and massage well. I love that they always put a extra plastic lining in the tub where you feet go. Its just an extra step on top of cleaning the tub every time, so they prevent the sharing of germs. They even have a smaller pink chair with huge fairy wings attached to it, for little girls to get there toes done. Fun! I highly reccomend this place to anyone! Especially for group parties :) read more

My husband got me a gift certificate for Christmas. I have a regular shop,but it's always nice to check out other places.so the day after Christmas me my 2 daughters and a friend decided to do a walk in. I expected a little wait since there were a few of us and we didn't have an appointment.when we got there they said 15 min wait which usually means 30.ok understandable I do gel nails so they started wrapping my nails and then this is what angers me..they take another lady who did not have an appointment and came in after us and did a full set of nails before any of ours Then I sit with my nails wrapped for 45 minutes while they are waiting for another employee to get there.finally almost three hours later all of our nails are done.i was very happy with the work and the design but not even an hour later my thumb nail chips.and my daughters design was crooked.i felt like they were rushing to get other people in. If they didn't have the staff to do the walk in they should have just told us I would have been more than happy to come in another day.i will be staying at my shop. read more

TERRIBLE SERVICE!!!! They did not make you feel comfortable and the services provided are not good. I believe the women who did my nails was the owner, she was extremely rude and impolite. She says she can do a certain type of nails and at the end they look completely different--my nails look awful. Also, the time you spend their is ridiculous for one service that should not take long. Overall one of the worst places to go if your looking to get great service. read more

Stopped in while waiting on my car to be serviced nearby. The shop was understaffed, which, no problem they happened to be busy so maybe that's not the usual for a Saturday early afternoon. The girl who started my pedicure was very nice but the one doing several manicures was getting stressed by the line and was abrupt and kept trying to rush her so my paraffin foot wax was hurried and ended up janky. Still I would have been ok with the service at that point, I understand they were feeling the pressure of a growing line, but then their guy came in to help. He did a good job on the cuticles and did so-so on the nail shape and did fine finishing the pedicure, but the gel manicure was unfortunately not great. I opted to keep my nails long thinking the gel would keep them hardened up enough after being shaved a bit from my prior dip application and the removal they did (which, the rushed manicure lady made me soak my hands in acetone to remove, rather than wrap my fingers individually with the acetone soaked cotton- so my fingers days later are still dry and rough from the acetone- and then she shaved the remaining dip off pretty aggressively so it burned my nail beds). Unfortunately the guy only applied two very thin layers of gel polish which were still quite transparent color-wise and they were still pretty weak. So three of my nails have broken since, and I had to I clip all of my nails down which was super easy to do since the gel is basically as thinly applied as normal polish and is peeling like a soft polish. The rushed manicure lady was pretty rude to my daughter and she's not happy with how her full set turned out. Can't say I'll be back, unfortunately. read more

I love this place! I have been looking for a consistent nail salon in Tacoma for the past five years, and I am so happy I found this place! The men women that work here are so funny, speedy and do incredible work. I am going to be a regular here for sure. read more

Sadly I have to change review... I used to like this place but takes way to long every time... One time I was here pushing almost 5 hours... Yes you read that right 5 hours... My feet looked like I was old with how long they waited in water... During hot day No air conditionear + stuffy in there from hot water for pedi = miserable long waiting ... The lady is nice though read more

This place was awesome. They are so friendly and the gel manicure and pedicure I got was really well done. This place did get super busy and it seemed like it was a long wait. I would recommend making an appointment early in the day to make sure you don't have to wait but otherwise it was a fantastic experience. I'll definitely be going back. read more

If I could give this place -3 stars, I would. There was no direction and services were below the bare minimum. Nail "tech" was so extremely rude and VERY unprofessional. She went back and forth with me the whole experience I had there because I was telling her to correct her mistakes. Didn't even pay for her service because she couldn't do, or even finish her job. Tools were unsanitary and the place was ragedy. If you want quality this is not the place to go, to say the very least. read more

I just had a pedicure and the place is very clean, they use plastic linings in the foot soaks. The pedicure is $25 and they spend a great deal of time exfoliating and massaging your legs/feet. read more

Average. They had us sit after our pedicures were done so they could work on other customer's fingernails (who came in after) and completely ignored us, and never finished until we asked (awkward!). I have had plenty of pedicures before and this place is nothing special. My toes have French tips now and it didn't hurt, so I still give two stars. read more

I went there and actually felt like the nail tech. took their time on my feet, normally I feel rushed through so they can get to the next person waiting. There were people waiting but they still took their time to give my a proper pedicure. I appreciate that! read more

This Nail Salon is the BEST! I've been going here for the past year, even after moving out of the area. I love Tammy! I've never met anyone like her. She truly cares about your experience, is friendly, professional, efficient and does amazing work. I always have a good time while I'm there and leave happy. I highly recommend Escape Nail Spa to anyone. read more

This is my third time here and I have to say, I am very pleased! I have had three different people and three wonderful experiences. All three times I received the same top notch service. Not once have I felt like they were rushing me thru, each time they have taken their time and given an over the top massage, as well as quality paint! I highly recommend this salon and will continue to be a regular. ..... Great prices as well! read more

Five star service. The staff was very friendly and worked quickly. My nails got done exactly how I wanted them now.

This is probably my favorite nail salon ever! I've tried other salons but I always come back to Escape Nails. They actually listen to you and pay great attention to detail. The mani & pedi combos are so relaxing. Most important they are super clean!! read more

Great job very friendly got me right in the chairs are the best

Called before going in and was told my total would be $35 after I got finished they charged me $50 and tried lying about what they had told me. Other than that the pedicure was horrible but the manicure was great read more

My sister and I made appts since it was for a Sunday and wasn't sure how busy they would be. Then we needed to readjust the time of our appt. and they were completely understanding. Ended up having one of the best pedis that I have ever had and my sisters was just as good. Will definitely be back as we are always looking for places who do a good. read more

Literally the worst experience I have ever had at a nail salon! Couldn't do the design I requested (no problem, I'll pick a different color) but instead she rushed me through the whole process and left my nails with the old color showing through, I literally could do a better job at home. I brought my daughter and she rushed through her nails as well, pulling her forward in her chair by her arms! I go to pay and leave no tip and she overcharged my card $6. Shame on me for not asking for my receipt or I would be filing a police report. Do not give this place anymore business! Save your money!!! read more

If I could give no stars I would but I can't so. Just disgusted at how rude and careless these women are like if I'm coming to get my nails done and pay $50 I don't need 4 different women switching off like its an assembly line and than bicker back in forth in Chinese and watch YouTube videos on there tv. And as im washing my nails in the bathroom the old asian lady barges in and basically shuts the door on me as im walking out drying my hands so she can use the restroom. Ughh this place HORRIBLE I will never go back and if advise you to do the same read more

It was quite a wait. Despite being quoted 15 minutes, but I didn't mind. While getting ready to do my nails,s he asked what I wanted, I told her and instantly she started convincing me to have more expensive services. She talked me into gel over the acrylic that I had. Then proceeded to talk all about how much "better and prettier they will be". What should have been a $30 service ended up costing me over $50 with a tip. Yeah, my nails look good, but nothing so extravagant that it warrants the upcharge or the high pressure sales pitch. I doubt I will be back despite her telling me "come back and I will fix your eyebrows for you". Thanks for telling me my eyebrows suck, lady. GEEZ. Apparently, tact is completely lost here read more

Love this place they are very friendly and the pedicure chairs are the best. My mani and pedi couldn't be better. The price is very fair husband and wife duo that actually remembers your name. They are fast and accurate. They do your nails just as you ask thanks read more

I took my 2 1/2 year-old in for her first pedi as well as myself and mother. I was able to make an appointment for all 3 of us and be seen within the hour on a Sunday. More importantly, they were very kind, patient and FUN with my daughter! They even have an adorable little girls pedi chair, pink glitter with butterfly wings! We drove all the way from Bremerton and we will be back! :) read more

Tammy is the BEST! she makes my nails always look so BEAUTIFUL!! And she's so quick! They are open 7 days a week too:) :)

Very very clean! They use fresh bowl liners for every customer. Great color selection. The women that worked with us were very attentive asking numerous times if the water was ok or that the massage chair was set correctly. We will be back again and again! read more

This place has been hit or miss for me for a few years now. The people who work there are always very nice but sometimes they don't do the best job. My nail shape will be uneven or the cuticles look awful but then other times they do a great job. The last time I went in (last week) I picked out a gel polish for my fingers and the matching regular polish for my toes. The girl did my toes first - she was very nice and did a decent job on the cuticles/paint/shape. When it came time to paint my finger nails, the man who works there took over. He was nice but he used a completely different color than what I picked out. It was a much lighter color. The woman who was sitting next to him (I assumed the owner) started yelling at him and she would say words like "lighter!", "not funny!" in English to him while he laughed like he thought it was funny. I didn't get the color corrected and the cuticles, shape, and paint were all sorts of wacky. I won't be going back. read more

Recommended by a friend who swears by this place. First, when we walked in we told them we wanted colored acrylic and they said, "no problem! We can do that" Great. Then they start doing our nails, I notice she's using clear acrylic, so I ask again. She says, "No. We do gel." Then proceeded to argue with me about how gel was so much better. This isn't what we asked for, but now it's too late to back out. After all of this, she misses the edge on EVERY SINGLE NAIL, so I ask her to fix it. She says it will be covered when she puts on glitter (it's not). Then she puts the glitter on only the top of the nail, so I asked three different people to fix it. She had gotten up and left me to serve a regular client. The owner was the one who did my nails. She was rude and abrasive and reprimanded me like I was a child. She left tons of acrylic all over my hands and under my nails, then charged $40 for something I didn't want in the first place. Worst nail place I have ever been to. Apparently they're only good to their regulars, not new clients. I left without leaving a tip and will not be going back. read more
