    Acrylics with gel color
    Kayla J.

    Came in to get a new fall look and I'm IN LOVE! Came in for a mother-daughter date and it was super special. The staff were SO nice and down to earth! These were acrylics with gel color were $39 and they were finished in under 40 minutes! Well worth it

    Went in yesterday on a recommendation from a friend, and they were amazing! The salon was clean and bright inside. The people working there were friendly and fit me in as a walk in. They were gentle, took their time, and asked me multiple times along the way how everything was looking. Didn't get charged extra for shaping, and it was only ten dollars total for the design. I've been plenty of places in the past where they charge five dollars per nail for art. I'm so so glad to have found a good go to nail place in Ellensburg. Update: went in again for a fill, this time with my little one in tow. They were amazing and made her feel special doing her nails as well! Kevin did my acrylics both visits and they were just as amazing this time!

    Happy with my nails! I came in for a fill with decently grown out nails and left with a well done/ filled set. They were clearly sanitizing between customers and it was clean inside and each each station. Four out of five stars, only because my nail tech didn't ask me if I wanted to change the length or change the shape, basically all he asked was the color everything else was up to him. Other wise I will be coming back! Great prices as well, however due to covid there is a 5$ price increase for all service.

    Been here before and they were super friendly and took me in asap. I took my sister this visit and they did an amazing job once again.

    I normally don't write reviews, but I was extremely disappointed in the service. The nail polish color options are limited. They have many polishes but the colors are are basically the same. The woman who worked on my nail did not to a great job filing them down-- a lot of jagged edges. I just got a regular manicure, but he edges were not clean. I feel as though, I could have done a better job myself. I would not return.

    The blue lasted 3 weeks! Just got pink today

    not sure why the reviews aren't all 5 stars. my full sets last literally 3 weeks. I've never had an issue the many times I have been here and the ONE time my nail broke they fixed it with no questions. They do the job spot on and fix an issue if you feel there is one. Been to 3 salons in ellensburg and this place has the best prices, flexibility, options, and most importantly people(.) "T" does my nails and she's a damn keeper & lowkey so amazing to talk to during sessions!!!! I Will continue returning till I leave the Burg. Thank you Happy nails!

    Acrylic under nail tip

    Every other nail salon was booked so I had to come here WORST NAIL EXPERIENCE EVER. With everything that is happening in the world they DONT SANITIZE they're tools so who knows what else they dont sanitize. I showed him a picture of what I wanted he completely ignored it, so ok whatever but on top of that he did a horrible job 1. Air bubbles 2. Acrylic application was thin and some thick 3. Bumpy 4.acrylic under nail 5.uneven shape. I would not recommended this nail salon to anyone.

    Tanner did a terrific job cutting our hair. Both of us had relatively complicated shorter cuts. She…read morereally made magic! Even better than the super-expensive salons. Our hair had texture and motion. The place is super cute with exposed brick, modern decor and lots of services we didn't get to try yet. We are making it a habit of booking appts every time we come to CWU for a visit.

    I'm not usually one to bring up a bad experience anywhere I've been to , but when a "nail tech"…read moretells their client that they're going to have to "prep their own nails next time" I will speak up. Lexi the nail tech at 425 & company really disappoints because she is the one who has told an old client of hers those things while doing her nails. The reason behind this is due to her not scheduling all her clients accordingly and not being clear about her policies. Lexi got upset at a client because the nail design was "too difficult" and she wouldn't have enough time but was already late with the client before, and Ive even seen a similar design on other clients in the past as well. Not only did she rush this client, not do any design, and tell her to prep her own nails next time but she even went out of her way weeks after saying these things to her and doing her nails and blocked her. Not only that but I've also gotten my nails done by her and it was decent she also claimed she couldn't even do an oval French tip because the polish brush was "too big" while the detailing brushes were right on her desk. Shortly into the appointment I realized I was never going to come back after she spoke down on her other clients.

    Fancy Nails - Sloppy and didn't remove all of my acrylic so lumpy too.

    I usually go to Tony's nails, but they were booked out and I needed my nails done for pictures so I…read moregave this place a shot. I asked for a gel french manicure and ended up paying 42 dollars for it. Gel is more expensive because it usually lasts for around 2 weeks. I don't know what they put on my nails...but it was not gel. It immediately chipped off within 24 hours. The lady who did my nails was nice, but she got nail polish all over my fingers and didn't clean it up very well, it looked messy. Overall would not recommend unless you like paying 42 bucks for a 12 dollar manicure.

    After 25 years of getting the same exact thing done, I finally found the worst! Not only was he 45…read moreminutes late for the appointment, he also ignored absolutely every request and tried to debate what I wanted. I get regular acrylic powder with slight shaping. No polish or anything. I told him to get all of the discoloration and lifted corners off. Of course he did not so I asked him to do it again, still didn't get it all off. I told him not to file the sidewall, which he tried to do anyway twice until I pulled my hand away. I told him to fill with pink powder when I saw him grab clear, because last time he put pink powder on. He came out with some pink handmade liquid and clear powder. I insisted he get the pink powder and he said no it's the same thing. So he put the clear powder with pink liquid on my nail. Not only can you see dirt that was under the lifted corners, you can see where every single bubble was that lifted. You can see the difference between the new acrylic and old because he used to completely different kinds. He didn't file underneath the nail but instead shoved more super glue under my fingernails, at the tip. It is bumpy and not smooth, they use the most minimal amount of material so if you don't want them paper thin you have to pay extra. Just completely subpar job all the way around. Actually I would rate it less than subpar. I left with nails looking like I have nail fungus building up underneath my acrylic because of the lack of attention to detail before filling. I am utterly shocked at how bad of a job and how many things went wrong in one appointment. This shows why even a year ago they were rated at 4.9 and they are now down to between a 1.9 and a 3.4 depending on the site. Do not waste your money.
