I have had subpar experiences every time at this establishment. I was moved two separate times so the nail tech could begin working on someone else. This alone is unprofessional. If you decide to work on another client, you should be the one moving. I was sitting with acetone for about 20 minutes. That is completely unacceptable, unnecessary, and unprofessional . This is after he used a drill on my dip top coat. He continued with the new customer and did not come to check my nails until I spoke up. He was beginning to put on tips for the other customer. The new nail tech asked me about five times if she could make one of my nails longer. I said no thanks, I want it how it is. A sign at the business says to talk to management rather than go to Yelp.. but the key here is that poor communication and service were evident. The business also only guarantees 7 days for dip, acrylic.. most places are two weeks. So they also are not confident in their skill and service. Also, there is a military discount but only for active duty members, not their spouses. That is so unfortunate. I'll be going to the nail salon further away from my house from now on. They support military members AND their spouses and provide a much better service. It took an hour and a half for my nails to be done. read more

I've been coming to Julep for almost 3 years. Whether it's a plain but professional mani (like I got today), fun nail art for vacations, relaxing pedicure or lash extensions, I've always happy with my service by Hao Hao or Nikki. Would definitely recommend! read more

4.7 stars - The layout & ambience of Julep provides the client a beautiful sense of arrival. Updated modern interior decor, lush green plants, and clean. This was my first encounter with Julep. Upon arriving I immediately noticed how efficient Julep's customer service was provided in a timely manner, and every client was instructed to wash their hands before being serviced (unique trademark & procedure). Prices were fair for services rendered. Nikki was very professional and honest in an exemplary way to me about the services and what she recommended to do on my nails. She was managing the staff, greeting all the incoming clients, and answering all phone calls while she was taking care of me. I was impressed by her performance in customer service & professionalism, yet I think a front desk person is needed to do these services. It did not bother me, yet I know certain types of clientele have different expectations and want no distractions. I was actually very impressed by her multitasking skills. She recommended a dip or Diamond nails over the acrylic I had ordered on my nails, so I decided to go in that direction. She explained how the Diamond nails was more durable and lasted longer than acrylic. It also came with a manicure. It was also more affordable. She took off the remnants of my acrylic which was a relief. The overall result was a more suitable option and very satisfactory. The only concerns I had were minimal, easily excusable, and resolved immediately. This is why I did not give the review a perfect score. I was not offered a drink like some of the clients. It was probably because I came in with a drink and did not ask. I bought a drink next door. There were some remnants of the nail powder dye left on my fingers and hands. I didn't notice all the dark nail dye all over my hands and fingers until I examined it outside, so I went back and had it immediately corrected to satisfactory standards. It has been a couple of weeks yet the nails look immaculate still. I scheduled another appointment and look forward to Nikki doing my nails again. read more

Vicki runs a tight ship, and Jasmine picks the best colors The Milk and Honey pedicure is my go-to. I have tried Solace and the one at hilltop and they just do not compare!. If you want a reasonable price and a quality mani, pedi, or lashes. This is place! It's close enough for me. But also worth the drive! Also her team's designs are incredible.

The owner always has a BAD attitude and is RUDE. I went to Julep consistently for about a YEAR and powered through nerves about going to get my nails done until one day I just has to switch because I could not handle the consistent attitude any more. She even told me once that the nail style and color I chose was ugly and did my nails however she wanted. After switching nail salons to NEiON nails in Mosaic (highly recommend) I decided to pop back in to Julep to get one nail fixed quickly and was IMMEDIATLEY met with rudeness, condescension, unnecessary questions and eye rolling... I was so in shock that I had to tell her my experience and I why I stopped coming to the salon. The customer service is atrocious. 0/10 recommend, it is not worth the rudeness and it's likely why all the good nails techs have left. read more

I have been going to Julep Nails since shortly after they opened. Nikki is my go-to nail artist, but everyone there is great! Nikki helped me regrow and protect my nails after having three kids in two years, which I'm truly grateful for. She really takes her time (and yes, this might mean appointments run long or don't start right on time, but the result is nails that are in perfect condition AND last 2-4 weeks). Total strangers will approach me about my nails, and I get compliments a few times a week on them. The salon is always very clean and in great condition, which isn't always the case with salons/spas. I love Julep so much that I've encouraged friends who live far from the salon to come in, and they, too, have become customers! read more

I've been getting my nails done here for almost 3 years and they always look amazing. I was not a religious nail person until I started going here. Niki does my nails and her precision and attention to detail shows every time. I get so many compliments every time to get my nails done. Paside from the really good work the salon is comfortable, clean, inviting and always enjoyable to visit. Sometimes I even take my kiddos and everybody is super kind to them. I can't recommend this place more. They also do a military discount. read more

Molly was great. I was 15 mins late because it's my third week living in VA. She totally should have turned me away since it was my own fault but she was super accommodating and didn't rush the job either. She took her time and focused on my experience. The cuticle clean up was so legit! It had been over a month since I had done any mail maintenance due to moving and it showed! She was gentle and took her time to clean me back up to presentable status. Thank you Molly! Also I should mention the salon is very clean inside and modern with good music playing. read more

I found the staff to be a little bit rude, maybe it's the language barrier. I don't like the feeling that I'm bothering them just by coming in for a service. Besides that they did a good job on my nails. read more

I am usually not that picky about getting my nails done. I'm a basic mani/pedi girl. My Mom, on the other hand is very picky! I wanted to take her for a nice relaxing experience and found Julep. I'm sooo glad I did. Christine did my nails and Jasmine did my mom's. Both of them did an EXCELLENT job! Both of them were incredibly thorough, friendly and most importantly did a lovely job. This is the best mani/pedi I've had in years. Like I said, I'm not much of a loyalist when it comes to my nails, but I am now! Thank you, Christine for doing such a great job. Thank you Jasmine for taking such good care of my mom. I will DEFINITELY BE BACK! read more

I really loved the pedicure I received, but the 'polish change' I had done was poor. I asked for a manicure with regular polish, but this got misinterpreted as a change in polish despite having no polish on my nails when I walked into the place. I think what bugs me is that even after I explained this, I was told that I asked for a polish. I even selected on the walk-in device that I wanted a manicure and pedicure. I went along with the polish change that cost $15 and it was definitely not worth it. After I expressed that the job did not look good, I was told it was because it was a polish change and not a manicure which would of looked cleaner. Even though it was not a manicure, shouldn't every service at least be decent? It honestly was embarrassing and on top of that, I was told that the color was, "not good on me". I asked if I could come back to get a manicure and they said I could if I paid the difference. After thinking about it, I've decided this place is not worth any additional money. *wanted to update based on the business owners response to my review. I did not ask for a polish change and it was not repeatedly confirmed. I've seen you respond to countless other of reviews with the intention of counteracting every negative review with it being the customers fault. At the end of the day, the pictures do not lie and I truly hope customers reconsider visiting your busines. read more

Beware: The owner made me and my friend feel disgusting, belittled, and told were basically filth. My friend just got a new haircut, and the owner rudely continuously stated, "Your hair looks horrible and dry". Just thinking it would end but NO the verbal abuse continued my entire time there. It went from hair to body shaming me to how "stupid" I am for making a poor decision. I will never return, and I plan to tell everyone I know about this. I have heard from other women who visited this establishment that she is constantly in there talking down to customers with insults and rude behavior. When you go to a nail salon, you want to feel beautiful and special. The Julep Nail Salon owner needs to stop attacking customers... shut her mouth, and do nails! Lastly, for someone who criticizes so hard about beauty standards really needs to take a long look in the mirror.... your inner ugliness really shines outward! read more

Just got my nails done Friday. I've been here about 3 or 4 times. I live in Stafford so if I have time on my lunch break I come here. The tip of my nails broke the same day. I had time today and told them what happened. I was told since I didn't originally get my nails done there, she won't fix it. They have a sign in the back that if you're unhappy within a certain amount of days to come to them (rather than doing a review) and they'll fix it. My nails are super thin and I'm unhappy. Won't be spending any more money there. read more

I absolutely LOVE Julep Nails and Spa. My husband and I go there every two weeks for pedicures- My husband has been wearing combat boots everyday for 18+ years in the Army. Nikki is a miracle worker on those old dogs. I also get a gel manicure with Tracy every two weeks- they last the whole duration between services and I am not gentle with my hands ( I do house keeping) I highly recommend Julep Nails!

Julep Nails & Spa - Gel manicure for Saint Patrick's day. Color: Dublin Green. - Eyelash Service Near Me - Fort Belvoir, Virginia

don't even know where to start firstly idk what was worse my nails or the manger Nikki. I'll start with the nails, PLEASE LOOK AT THESE NAILS. The pictures speak for themselves quite frankly. I have a literal gap between my natural nail and the acrylics...... It was so bad even my boyfriend noticed, should say a lot. Now let's move onto management well specificity Nikki. I've tried twice to validate those dumb coupons that THEY advertise for some reason they never work due to management saying it's not valid if you don't have intention of holding up your own specials please don't bother uploading them. I go to pay (yes for those awful nails) and i simply ask the receptionist for the mangers name, the receptionist goes to the back and at last the manger Nikki appears. I never was rude to the receptionist. She ask what's wrong I explain that I've been denied a coupon twice now and my nails look like shit all she says is we can fix the nails "it's a quick fix". Please look at those and tell me if you think that's a quick fix... I tell her i dont have time to sit and wait another hr for a fix i had already been there for 3 hrs. Instead of apologizing and saying well please let us make this right and come in tomorrow if your available Nikki just gets mad at me and starts saying well don't come back again bc i expressed that I needed her name for this review. How did you mess up my nails fail to valide a coupon uploaded by Juliep themselves and then have the AUDACITY to try to give me attitude. Not very manger like. I never disrespected anyone I simply wanted to know the mangers name. I'm truly not one to complain or write reviews but i could not let another person walk into this establishment and experience such disrespect on top of that your going to get a shit job. Please any other place would be better and actually worth your money. To respond to the owner I don't see how a literal gap can be fixed with reshaping and new polish??? I asked for the mangers name ONLY at no point did i ask for her to come out your receptionist did that on her own. Her claiming to give me the coupon is a LIEEE My toes were 52 the set was 60 plus 10 for french which equals 122 the exact price i paid dispute the coupon claiming 20 off. I wish I was treated with these kind words you now say then! read more

This newly opened business hit the ground running with excellent beauty services and customer care. From the movement I walked in to see if I can schedule my appointment to the moment I walked out I felt this warm welcoming feeling that surrounded me. I love the atmosphere of this salon - it's very light and uplifting. Very tastefully arranged decor with lots of good lighting really add those special touches to the salon itself. The customer service was beyond amazing! Everyone was so sweet and polite I wanted to hug all of the ladies that work there, because granted it felt very genuine, and not forced like in some other places, which is always appreciated. I was also informed that all services are done by appointments, but walk-is are welcome. I was a walk-in and I got lucky with last free time slot for my mani and pedi. Was super stoked with my luck! They have a cool check in system that allows you to collect points from your visits that I though was very fun and worth mentioning for sure. I usually get dip powder mani plus gel pedi and try to match them as much as I can. At this salon there was so many beautiful and vivid colors to choose from I had a hard time picking my favorite, in addition over half of dip power selection also has a perfect match in gel and regular nail polish. So for my matching queens out there this is the place that does it well! My pedicure went by perfectly, my nail color came out amazing, my achy ingrown toe nails were also tended to. I am beyond satisfied with my pedicure outcome. Manicure portion was a bit different to what I'm used to because I got dip powder done first then actual manicure. I was explained in a great detail benefits of doing it that way and I loved the fact that I let we something new during my appointment. I felt like I was well taken care of and I appreciate it very much. Mani and pedi both come with massage by the way! Decided to do lash tint on a whim since I need did it and now I am huge fan from my first time trying it. Niki was so attentive and sweet when she did my lashes and they came out looking fantastic. I even enjoyed checking out process because it allows you to add gratuity right there and then, just makes overall experience that much more fun for me. My final verdict is that I am a huge fan of Julep and will certainly be coming back. I have utmost love and respect to our wonderful woman owned businesses and I will always support them. Highly recommend checking out this place! read more

Newly opened below a mixed living condo right across from the main corporate of Fort Belvoir. Beautifully set up. Supet clean. Follows all covid and sanitation protocols. All staff fully masked at all time, polite, friendly, extremely professional, knowledgeable, and take great care very meticulous with thier work. I highly recommended coming here. Since they are fairly new its best to call in or go to the website to book your appointment since they may not have enough staff yet to accommodate your walk ins. I came to get a fill and a pedicure and Nikki did an amazing job. The time she put into getting my nails shaped into the PERFECT COFFIN shape was very much appreciated. You can tellshr takes great pride in her work. Its not about rushing to move on to the next client as soo. As possible. Quality was the main thing. Definitely coming back here read more

Horrible experience and will never be back. Had a gel manicure appointment at 2:30 and no one got to me until 3:30, a whole hour. My sister also had her appointment for acrylic gel mani and gel pedi. We had a coupon that discounted the difference for the gel add ons but once I showed the coupon they didn't want to validate it. When I complained to the receptionist she went back to speak to the boss who at no point spoke directly to me just through the receptionist. Completely unprofessional! if you're going to send out coupons uphold them. This is the second incident for my sister where a coupon wasn't accepted for no real reason other than they don't want to give the discount. I have gone there for over a year now but after this I won't be back. But here's the coupon see if they'll accept it for you lol read more

Tiffany did such a wonderful job with my nails. I haven't had acrylic nails in about a decade... but I'd bitten my nails to absolute nubbins and wanted them to look cute for the holidays. She did the most beautiful almond acrylic nails on me. The pattern she made in the pinky nude magnetic polish was also so cool! I *love* them. I've been here a few times before, and last time they did an amazing job with my brows. My nails always look great after Julep, but today they're especially stunning! read more

I've gone to this salon a handful of times since the location is very convenient. I used to go only for nails with Nikki and she always did a fantastic job with the shape, which is something I have a hard time liking elsewhere. The staff is pleasant, not overly welcoming but professional. The salon is clean and relaxing. However, yesterday I went in for a pedi and was thoroughly dissatisfied. The massage was sub par compared to other local salons and my gel polish job and shaping is awful! My husband asked if I did them myself...for $100+ that's unacceptable! First, the shaping. I agreed to have them cut down with the exception of the big toes, I wanted those squared off. One is squared, the other is rounded. Other toes are clipped/filed on an angle and 2 look like they weren't shaped at all. The polish is on my skin and sloppy, one of the toes has air bubbles or something across it and the other is lumpy. I seriously could have done a better job at home and saved myself the money. I haven't been in for a pedicure in over a year and was looking forward to the "me time". I left disappointed and sad that I paid for what I could've done better at home for free. I still tipped the tech and of course paid for my service without issue, as she was polite and, from afar, my toes seemed fine but once I got home I was very upset to see what they looked like. I wont be returning, the tech was much closer and should be experienced enough to have done a thorough job. I'll stick to the slightly longer drive to Happy Nails in Woodbridge or Glam Day spa. read more

Absolutely the worst experience! She removed all my acrylic nails with another nail from her kit. I asked her three times to soak them off and she ignored me. After one mail was pulled from the middle of my nail bed and started to bleed, I begged her to please soak them off. She finally agreed and was able to remove the last three nails. After she was done, she asked me if I was "good". I said no, I came here for a fill in to look nice for our neighborhood party, and I'm leaving with broken, bleeding nails with no color. She then proceeded to defend herself and said "I gave you options for colors, I don't know what else you want me to do". I paid and left. The worst part of this story is, SHE (Nikki) is the OWNER! I will NEVER go back! read more

I've been going to this nail salon for a few months. They do a wonderful job at the pedicures. However, the acrylic and dip nails are horrible. The lady that did my acrylics made them thick and did not know to paint them with gel. I waited over two hours for the manager to fix them and she overcharged me. I return it because the manager did a good job with the repair. However, each time I've returned they have been rude and act like they don't want service me. I'm quiet, courteous and I tip. When I got a feeling in the purple polish with thick and lumpy, and started to peel off within three days. My last set of nails has started to turn a yellowish green color. I won't be back. My sorority sister went there for a manicure, and they were rude to her when she asked about pushing back her cuticles. It's a nice salon in a location close to Fort Belvior but but not worth it for the horrible customer service. Getting her nails done is supposed to be a relaxing experience. Not here! Beware! Adding pictures. The last picture is what I asked for the first time I went there. read more

My go to service is gel mani and pedi with Holly. If you are looking for a precise nail tech then Holly is your girl!! She takes her time and listens to provide a great personal experience. I am very picky and like my nails to be done a particular way. As a beauty professional I understand it does take tine for a person to learn your nails, and your likes and dislikes Holly has done just that and it makes a huge difference when the service is not just transactional but relational. Holly is patient and pleasant in learning you and your nails so you are happy. The salon is also very clean and has a peaceful atmosphere. read more

I found Julep using web searches for nail salons that are male friendly. I made an appointment online (very easy) and had my sport manicure and sport pedicure today. My aesthetician was May, and she not only did an amazing job, but was also very kind and helped make me feel very comfortable. The sport mani and pedi are awesome - the milk and honey scrub and paraffin treatment feel amazing. If you are a guy that dreads going to get your nails done, I highly recommend Julep.
