I understand why Nails by District is one of the most highly rated salons in the city…read more After a recent unfortunate experience at another salon that left my natural nails damaged, I was reluctant to try again. I decided to give this spot a shot after reading the reviews, and I'm glad I did. The service was well done and never felt rushed. Most importantly, I was treated with kindness and respect. I didn't have to advocate for myself once--my tech was attentive to my needs and respectful throughout the appointment. I was completely relaxed and left with nails I love. I'll definitely be back and look forward to my next appointment!

My man and I visited for a pedicure, and it was nice that they seated us together. Back home in California, I have a specific technician who does my pedicures--she's not afraid to dig in and tackle ingrown nails. The person I had while visiting had a gentler approach, despite my request to dig. It was clear she wasn't very experienced, though she was sweet as pie. On the plus side, she did an outstanding job with polishing my toes.

I used to bite my nails and felt like I'd tried every type of polish and extension to no avail until I started coming here. Turns out the secret to breaking my habit was the precise builder gel application and refills I get every time I come here. The Charming Nails space is exactly as advertised, very charming. They don't need to hide behind fancy decor because the luxury is all in the treatment and care you receive here. The prices are also hard to beat. My nails have never looked better and I look forward to coming back each time I leave.

First and not my last time!…read more I've found a gem in a location I don't frequent often because of the crowd but this place wasn't chaotic at all and the service was fast and excellent! Thanks to Sophia for taking care of my nails and providing me with what I requested. She even offered great tips on how to book the next time and how to select service add-ons. At the conclusion, I loved my nails and appreciated the policy on chipped nails and their willingness to fix it. It's a small location but very cozy and accommodating. Definitely hope to be back soon for a follow up service! FYI: I did the Gel X extensions which were $70.

I recently returned to Bliss Nail Lounge for another gel manicure, and unfortunately this set of…read morenails was not up to the same level as my first time. My technician was nice, but seemed to really want to get me in and out of her chair as quickly as possible. I have never kept my hands under the UV light for less than 60 seconds per layer, but at one point I timed it and my hand was under the light for 15 seconds. It was truly: finish one hand, immediately change hands to put under the light. I questioned it internally but figured she knew what she was doing. I got my nails done on a Tuesday, by Sunday one of my nails was chipped. Bliss has a policy that any chips within 10 days can be fixed for free, so I went in the next Wednesday to get the nail fixed. Again it was incredibly rushed, 15 seconds max under the light. By Friday the nail chipped again. Two days later another nail chipped. Less than two weeks and the manicure was already chipping. A disappointing experience compared to my first time there.

I went on a Sunday morning and found the front desk a bit frantic despite there being 3 people working there. One pedicure tech finally sat me (for my appointment) but the foot bath wasn't functioning. Amber was my tech and moved me to another chair. While she was pleasant I thought the charge of $120 for a gel manicure and pedicure was too much given the lack luster environment. However, what cemented for me this place is horrible is that within 2 days the gel manicure chipped! First it was 2 nails. Now, 4 days later 3. I called and they wanted me to come back there to have them fixed. I said I would never return and they gave me some money back as I insisted. But the continued deterioration of the service after just days is clear this isn't good good nail spa. I don't recommend it and I wouldn't return.

The nail technician (male) who worked on my naturally healthy nails did a poor job. The process took much longer than necessary, and without my request, he applied gel builder, which I didn't want or need. Typically, my gel manicures last at least three weeks without any issues at all, but this one barely made it a week before breaking and chipping. The finish was also noticeably bumpy, far from the smooth, polished look I expect from a professional manicure. I've attached photos to show the subpar results. While the ambiance and staff friendliness were highlights, the quality of the gel manicure itself was a huge letdown.

Casabella is one of the best nail salons i have been to in the DMV. This was my second time there…read morefor gel and acrylic and both times I have been very pleased by this business. Located in the heart of Georgetown, Casabella is a hidden gem on Wisconsin Ave. The chic design of the nail bar inside is super trendy and the products they use are of good quality. When I got there, I did not have an appointment and although they were busy they were very accommodating and were able to squeeze me in. The nail tech that I had payed great attention to detail and was really great at making sure I was comfortable. Two things that particularly annoy me with acrylic nails are when they are too thick or when there's too much acrylic gunk behind the nail (ladies you know what i'm talking about). This was the first time i had walked out of a salon with perfect looking nails! I also have to commend the techs on their customer service skills and their immense level of patience. Believe me when I tell you, some of the customers in there were the most entitled, high-maintenance, and quite frankly, ANNOYING individuals i've experienced lol. I was only surrounded by them for 10 minutes and I was already annoyed, yet the techs exhibited excellent customer service skills. Overall, I highly recommend Casabella and for sure will be coming back here again!
