Excellent mani/pedi service in Amsterdam! My daughter and I were visiting Amsterdam-Oost and…read morewanted our previous gel manicure removed and a simple polish to replace it. We didn't want to spend valuable shopping time sitting in a salon! Michelle took both of us right away for our appointment and had us in and out in less than an hour. AND the end result was gorgeous! She spoke perfect English (ad most Dutch people do) and was super nice and funny. I would HIGHLY recommend this salon if you're in Amsterdam! Everything was !

Got the shape pretty good that I wanted. Also- I'm a really hard person to please so I felt bad asking for her to fix corners & stuff. & in the beginning I was a little weary to get my nails done cause there was only two girls working but, the girl that did mine did a great job. If you have an American credit card bring cash cause they don't take visa or MasterCard. /: lol. Great place other then that & kinda good gel selection. Little overpriced though. 65$ euros for a full set with gel where in California it would be 30-40$ whatever though.

Their signature experiences start with a rose soak and you feel pampered right from the start. The holy grail service you get to personalize and design your own scrub to be used. I had a lot of fun looking through the options and playing with the scents. Color options are plentiful, and my pedicure lasted for a long time. Next time will try a shellac manicure. Slight premium for the luxury service, but they make you feel worth your money.

NEVER GO HERE! OPLISHERS! Worst salon I've ever been to. I…read moreasked for a removal of acrylic nails and a new set of acrylic nails. The employee indicated that I did not need a new set, that a new layer could be put on my (so called) own nail. What happened next was a 'fill up'. Nothing more, nothing less. Within half an hour I was outside again. Unfortunately I was 75 euros lighter instead of 42 euros. I could pay for what I had booked instead of what I had received. It is outrageous how no conversation is possible (both in the salon and afterwards on Facebook). There is no other way of communication. What a bad service. In the end, after much nagging, I was refunded 7.50 paltry euros when it should have been 33. Ridiculous. Now 1 week later, there are already corners out of my nails, something that happens when there is too much filling (instead of new set). This again indicates that it is NOT a new set and I still have to get the remaining € 25.50 back!

I'm visiting Amsterdam from the US. I was in dire need of a mani/pedi, and trying to find a nail…read moresalon where you don't have to make an appointment a week in advance seemed impossible. Most of the businesses seemed *medical* and very high-end with fees to underscore their specialness. I kept looking online and found Crystal Nails. Best thing is that you can walk-in, which I did, and I was told to come back in 30 minutes. When I returned, they took me fairly quickly. The pedicure was heaven, and the person doing the job was great. I then had a manicure, which was also excellent. If you find yourself in Amsterdam needing a nail salon, I highly recommend Crystal Nails. You should know in advance that they only take cash, and no credit/debit cards.

OMFG My feet came out crustier and worse than what I walked in with !!! Lol like it's just crazy…read morehow I had to experience it. But in all seriousness, is pretty much a local hole in the wall place. I guess if you've never been to an actual professional salon, some people would think its a decent basic nail place.. Not even decent.. well for one, I am a professional nail tech myself. I gave the place the benefit of the doubt and gave it a try on a whim. I've been traveling for two weeks and needed mainly my foot scrubbed and massaged. There was also a huge language barrier and all I asked for was the pedicure. Which as advertised €20. I also had gel polish on from a prior treatment. (Was an extra €5 to remove.. ok sure.) They had no idea how to take it off except to scrape and file the gel off my nails down thin to where it was hurting and still is. The nail wasn't even buffed. It's rough as you'll see.. the cuticles not trimmed.. but honestly I was scared for her to even cut me so whatever. The skin around my nail beds is sensitive from so much filing, they trimmed my toe nails down very short to the quick, uneven and jagged.. I couldn't even complain. They didn't understand. So much happened and it was almost comical but traumatizing.. I remained calm and tried telling her I didn't need anymore servicing, ended up paying €31 instead of €20. PROS: None honestly.. By the end of my service, one lady there who is Thai did speak English.. (too late for me) CONS: It is an EXTRA €2 for Polish, no base or top coat either (Not included in pedi service) EXTRA €4 for a 5 minute Massage (also not included in the €20 service) €8 for 10 minute foot massage. And no gel/shellac options either. No actual pedicure chairs with tub, just a plastic cleaning bucket they bought, wrapped with plastic and filled with a little warm sink water.. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY unless your a minimalist of such things and just don't care about your toes nails.

Just chose this salon because it was 1st on Yelp list and closest to my hotel. Not sure why - and…read morewalked past several dozen more. They took my late appointment, which was very nice and accommodating (6:30 pm). When I showed up I had to ring the bell because the door was locked. I was not taken back for an additional 15-20 minutes (she was running late from prior appointment). Thank goodness I only booked a half leg wax. Was a bit grossed out that she used a metal spreader (looks like a cake spreader) for my legs and kept reusing in the wax. Unsure why as there were wood sticks next to the wax. Gross but I'm hoping it was my fresh wax and not used again. Certainly wouldn't have tolerated that for a bikini or other wax. The ladies were nice. The hygiene is just not up to my standards.

I've visited on two different occasions, once for a shellac manicure + regular pedicure and once for a new set of acrylics and a pedicure. The male nail technician there is definitely more thorough - my nails took twice as long (!!!) to get ready as my friend's did. However, I still noticed that the size and shape of some nails are a bit off. They don't look bad at all (in fact, I've gotten several compliments), they're just not perfect. I am willing to come back for the same job regardless. Their pedicures aren't great, and I will probably go somewhere else for that next time. The lady was rushing through the job and it got uncomfortable. The water was way too cold, even when I asked for it to be heated. A 30 second "massage" was included. Not worth €35. They offered tea or coffee while we waited for the polish to dry. They don't accept cards (there's an ATM in the supermarket across the street). Walk-ins are fine.

Having come all the way from Sydney, Australia - where getting a great pedi is easy and safe, here in Amsterdam? It's harder to find. Even one of the other high end stores do not offer what these lovely ladies here at Soap offer. Quality products. Incredible service. AND Clean tools. When it comes to nail health- THIS, THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT. I've been to two different locations, here at the Spuistraat (it's local to my workplace so lunch-time pedis are a go-er) and also to the Van Baerlestraat. The Spuistraat store is so lovely, definitely worth a visit if you're looking to treat yourself. Make sure to BYO your own nail colour because the selection they have is limited unless you buy one in-store. This is the only quibble I have, considering yes, you already pay a fair price, surely nail colours should be provided too? But never fear, nail polish addict that I am, I have plenty of my own! Another bonus, Soap is open for about a gazillion hours in Amsterdam. Monday through to Sunday and working hours too, not the crappy 11-5 whereasonlyifyou'realadyofleisureyoucanmakeit! Visit here. It's worth it. Your nails are worth it.

But my nails did look lovely afterwards.
