This is the best my nails have looked in a while. I've been looking for a nail salon to become my regular place and this is it. I was there for a while--I think they double booked but I'm so pleased with the outcome that I'll go again but I'll try to go earlier in the day. read more

Five stars for a salon in the price range. I cannot stay long in salons with a heavy acetone odor. Good air quality here. I made an appointment and they got me in earlier than scheduled. I have been to some places that double/ tripe book the appointment. They performed the service I asked for - no up sell at the chair. I was in and out with pedicure that has lasted two weeks and counting. It is nice when I look down at my toes and think - Wow, Exotic Nails did a good job, gotta stop by there again next time I am in DTE read more

I've been coming here for a while for pedicures and they are decent. It's convenient for me as far as location and I've been satisfied with the service more or less. Went in today for a manicure and won't be back. It was rushed and they didn't even use a base coat. When I asked about it, she said "You want a base coat?" I asked if it was not standard and she said it doesn't matter. Meanwhile I observed all the other techs using a base coat for their clients. I don't like getting short changed on service. I'd already paid and tipped for the manicure and my daughter's pedicure. Not cool. This manicure is SO not going to last. So nope....won't be back. Note: My daughter's pedicure was adorable, and she received good service. read more

Was driving by with my sister and took a chance because I NEEDED that "post quarantine" pedi. I was surprised they were able to see us right away without an appointment. Dat did my nails, he was great. You could tell he tries not to touch your feet unnecessarily to not tickle them. It's hard to explain the not touching and giving you a pedicure thing but he did an amazing job. Very detail oriented. Will definitely go back and request him. read more

Exotic Nails is the ONLY nail salon i go to. Quinn in THE BEST in town and gets it right EVERY time. I've been seeing her for close to two years now and I refuse to ever see anyone else. She can do anything you want, any design in any color(s) & kills it EVERY TIME!!! I get dip powder and it's perfect every time- no bumps or streaks or chips. I get compliments on EVERY set i've ever done & always tell them to visit Quinn at Exotic- you won't be disappointed. read more

I came here after a recommendation from coworker. The yelp reviews aren't real. This place is so clean, nice and the techs are talented. I go to Quinn who is the bomb.com. She is so easy to talk to and executes all that I need. read more

Don't go here. My pretty color turned brown, they refused to refund my credit card, blaming it on something I did (I've done nothing out of the ordinary). I've never had this happen at my normal place and came here because I was in a hurry, I live locally and spent $75 on a shellac Mani/pedi. They offered to redo them but I don't have time nor do I want this to happen again. My friends nails were also poorly done. read more

Worst nail experience of my life. If I could give it 0 stars I would. Went here with my friend and it was not busy. I got a regular pedicure and my friend got a pedicure and dipping powder manicure. The place was dirty, nobody was friendly, and they don't even give a good mani or pedi. Nail tech was NOT friendly. Never spoke to me or even smiled. She was very aggressive when rubbing my feet to the point it hurt. And this is the worst part! Please look at the photo attached to see for yourself. I don't understand how a "professional" nail tech could do that horrible of a job. I mean seriously? A 2 year old could've done better than that. She did not file my toes evenly, she picked way too hard at my skin, and the polish is a MESS! Looks like she painted my toes with her eyes closed. I'm still in awe that someone would look at that and think it's ok. My friend's pedicure wasn't as bad as mine, but still hers was not good. They filed her toes and left them crooked! Her dipping powder mani took SO long because her nail tech seemed to not know what she was doing because she got the dip powder stuck on her skin! So then she was aggressively scraping it off of her skin and she didn't even get all of it off. And, they totally ripped her off. She paid $50 for just her dip mani (she didn't even get any removed, or get nail extensions!) and from reading all of the reviews here, it seems like that should cost $40 NOT $50 for a sloppy manicure. Do not go here unless you want a sloppy manicure, rude nail techs, and a dirty salon. I know my friend and I will never come here again. read more

I got an acrylic full set and a pedicure for a wedding I'm standing up in this weekend. This place had the most reasonable prices. Manicure- My full set with white tips came to $27. Daughter did it and was done very thorough. She matched the white tips to each finger so they were all the same size. She asked me multiple times what I wanted and verified to make sure I was happy before moving on to the next part. Pedicure- $25. Mother did it. Was done well, except I just saw now (the next day) my big toe has wrinkled paint and idk how. I wish she did more of the massage part because that's my favorite. The massage chair seat didn't work, but the back did. Now this is something a customer has to tell them because they wouldn't know otherwise. Environment- Definitely could use a spruce up. However they had Ellen on and they were laughing, as was I, to the show. Very nice and friendly staff! After looking up a thousand nail salons prior, I'd recommend this place. read more

Today I went to exotic nails and spa for the first time. I didn't have an appointment, and I was taken right away. I went in for a shellac manicure and a pedicure. I was seated at the pedicure chair, which had many massage options. There was not a liner in the tub, but it did appear to be clean. The water was barely warm, but I didn't say anything about it, so that is on me. While trimming my cuticles, my technician, who I believe was named Lynn, did cut one of my toes slightly, and apologized. No big deal, it happens. I didn't notice until I got home, but the polish looks pretty thin, and she should have probably put a third coat of color on them. After my pedicure, I was taken to manicure station. I hadn't had a chance to look through the shellac colors yet, so Lynn brought over three rings with color samples on them. I chose a pretty army green color. I had shellac on my nails from my previous manicure, and the technician used an electric file to sand off the old shellac. Then she applied nail polish remover and foil. After a few minutes she took the foil off and scraped my nails, a little too roughly for my liking. Then she again used the electric file and took off more of the shellac. Unfortunately, I believe she sanded down past the polish and then sanded my nails also. My nails were already in somewhat rough condition from getting acrylics and poorly done fills a few times in a row.... However it had been several weeks, and I was growing them out to so that soon I would have new growth and healthy nails. Unfortunately after this my nails are so thin that when she was buffing them it did hurt a little bit. Then she proceeded to polish my nails, during which her hands were extremely shaky. I'm not sure if she has a health condition, or if she'd had too much caffeine, but she didn't look nervous. The polish job, after three coats, ended up looking fairly decent, however there are areas on the edge of my nails which are not covered, and areas where there is polish on my skin. The worst part for me, is that now my nails are extremely thin, and they are rough on the ends. In fact, when I put my scarf on as I was leaving I snagged my scarf with my nail. At that point I asked her to fix that one, and she did file it. However after getting in my car I noticed that all of my nails are somewhat jagged. I was there for so long, that I just decided to go home and file them myself. I didn't want to be there any longer than I already was. The technician did not rush through the manicure, and seemed to be rather focused, going back over my cuticles a couple times, and looking back over the polish before putting my hands under the lights, but when she filed my nails to shape them, she didn't clean them up and every one had jagged bits underneath. I feel a bit bad leaving this review, as the technician was nice enough, but I am really disappointed with the results after spending my time and money today. read more

Mediocre nail salon. Went there for the first time two weeks ago for a shellac mani. I was pleased with the results. Only downside on the visit was that the salon smelled so heavily of chemicals. I went again yesterday for a shellac color change. It was easily the worst shellac I've ever had done. The lady had to wipe polish off of my skin after every coat. I've never had a nail tech be so bad at painting nails. I attached pictures that show how poorly they were painted. I tried here because it's so close to my house, but I'd rather drive further for better results. read more

Terrible service. Complete disregard for appointments and a MAJOR problem with communication! Made an appointment but I was delayed in getting there on time. I waited for an hour while other walk ins were taken before me time after time, when a nail tech became available. I asked how much longer I would have to wait, especially because I made an appointment an hour ago, and they said it would be another 30 minutes. I left immediately. read more

I came last Week to get a dipped manicure with one of my friends. We both loved our nails but not even 4 hours later and each of our nails cracked and chipped off. We were upset because the next day we were in our best friend's wedding. We came back this week to have it repaired which they did super quickly. However, my same nail chipped again next day. Dipped manicures should last up to three weeks or more not one day. read more

Went in for a mani-pedi on a Tuesday afternoon. $40 including French polish on toes. The pedicure was no frills, rushed and callous removal was incomplete. Tech seemed irritated that I requested removal of calloused parts she overlooked. Pushing cuticles back on toes was painful. While taking toe separators off, noticed that the topcoat used was thin and rough! The tops of my toes feel like sandpaper. Feet not moisturizer at all. I requested that I not soak my nails so my nails wouldn't peel. The cuticle pushing back was rough and painful, overly aggressive. Tech did superficial cuticle removal and uneven nail shaping, filing the tips of my fingers in the process. I left with hangnails and I finally had to finish shaping myself before polish. brought with me a new bottle of Essie nail polish. After drying my polish is full of bubbles and has a orange peel finish, not what one would expect from a professional manicure. I suspect inferior base coat and top coat were used I can get a much better mani-pedi for the same price in Birmingham or Bloomfield this early in the week. read more

I'm so glad that I came here! I'm going out of town for a week, rushing to get my nails done on the weekend and I'm so glad they open on Sundays! Love the way they greet me and being so helpful to find out what's the best for me. The best thing is they suggest just what suitable for you, not what easy to get your money! I had pedi and shellac mani. And it lasted forever. Quinn did great job as you can see there. I love having her designs on every single nail!!!! Definitely my favorite nail salon is here. Going to try the dipping powder since they have great technique and wonderful colors. read more

I've given this place two tries and both times haven't been able to see the finished product. First time had a scheduled appt for a pedi, get there and their hot water isn't working (didn't bother to call me) so they were going to boil small pots of water for my pedicure and bring to the pedicure chair lol. Second time was today, i walk in and ask how long for a fill. She tells me 20 minutes, i said I'll wait. 20 minutes goes by and they place me at a station then the woman goes and starts a pedicure. So i ask how much longer, she mumbles something about someone signed in before me (then don't tell me 20 minutes) and just a few more minutes. I waited 10 more and left. I won't return now and went right down the road to a competitor. read more

Came in here to get a manicure and pedicure cause my hands and feet were straight up rough. After she was done my feet felt lighter. I had a girl name Quinn do my service.

Im leaving for disney this week and I wanted my nails done with a disney theme. I didnt know what I wanted done exactly but the lady who did my nails came up with the most perfect designs. She's very talented! I rarely get my nails done so i expressed how I like them shorter so I can do normal everyday things with them. I'm just not used to having them long. She made them the perfect length! I absolutely love them! This was my first time at this salon, everyone was super nice and I must say I will be back! Thank you so much! I recommend this place to anyone who wants a nice, friendly and clean place to get their nails done and for anyone who wants a specific design done. read more

Used to like going there but Sang was very rude one day to me when I called and they said there was no wait. To my surprise, there was a huge wait when I walked in. He responded very rude and condescending to me that he didn't know who I talked to and shrugged. He was so rude it shocked me. I said no thanks that he didn't need to be rude and walked out. After going there for over a year, I will NEVER be going back. I don't deserve to be treated that way. I can find a much better and cleaner place! read more

I love this place! The staff is very friendly and accommodating. I went on last Saturday, had my old acrylics taken off because another shop did them terribly, for a pedicure and a full set. That night I got crazy and painted my nails with a black gel polish. The next day, I tried tho take it off and couldn't get it to come of the acrylics. I went back in and they removed the black and repainted them with a neutral gel color and trimmed them down for me. They didn't even charge me. We laughed and she told me I either wanted to do my nails myself or get them done, can't have it both ways. I totally agreedand will member go anywhere else. The pedicure here is also amazing, I'll be back every two weeks for sure!! read more

Absolute worst manicure ever. Didn't even file my nails or cut my cuticles? Not to mention there are parts of my nail that are not painted.

Everything is pretty good about this salon --- except I feel as if Tina ripped me off. When I called beforehand to ask the cost of a dipping powder manicure she told me $40. Fine. But after I picked the color and was in the chair and she began working on my nails, she told me that the dipping was $40 but if I wanted a manicure it was $10 more. Really? I stayed because I was already settled in but I adjusted my tip --- downward. She worked on my nails for an hour and they look good initially (except for a small cut) so I still felt like I should tip her, but as far as going back, why would I? These kind of bait and switch tactics are not good for repeat business -- or reviews like this on social media. At my last salon, where I was a regular for three years (unfortunately my nail tech just moved to a salon 20 miles north), I paid $50 total for a gel mani and a good pedi and they both lasted a long time. And I always tipped generously. So now I'm still looking for a new salon in the neighborhood that isn't a rip-off! read more
