    Gray magnet polish

    This place was open on New Year's Eve, so I gave it a try today. They are very friendly, which I appreciate when there's a language barrier. Waited a bit to be seated for my appointment, but no big deal. And while I didn't partake, they do offer you a free beverage (water, sodas and wine)! Nice touch. They seemed to have a lot of regulars and that's always good to see. I want to make it clear, that while I will say some things, overall, I'm happy with my nails. The sample I picked maybe wasn't the best choice and the lady seemed unfamiliar with it, and it didn't turn out anything like what I thought, but I like it anyways. Supposed to be a magnetic swirl-type look, but ended up more stormy rain sparkle. See pic. No complaints, just facts. The nice lady did check with me and I did okay the rest of the set. Some of the edges are a bit rough, but again, overall, I'm happy. Excess top coat and such washed right off. I would go back again and maybe try another color. Check it out, as their prices are great. I paid for a fill and polish, which with the extra $10 for the magnetic polish was $57 and then left a $10 for tip. Which I thought was good and fair. Thanks for not letting my nails be in Christmas mode for new years. Thanks ladies!

    This spot is amazing ! Great prices and great experience !! Can't recommend enough. I'm a man and got my first mani pedi with the love of my life.

    Very nice workers and did my nails so well! I loved how they turned out and perfect for Valentine's day Cute salon

    Love Krystal's nails. Always make time for their clients. They are a bit spendy. But I love the convenience as they are literally up the street from.my house. Lee is definitely my favorite and Jolie is a sweetheart. Clean! ​​

    All of the techs were very kind, and it was obvious their regulars are comfortable with them. Unfortunately, this is what I asked for vs what I ended up with. Incredibly thick and oddly two toned; not at all what I was hoping for. I definitely would have chosen something else if they'd mentioned not being able to do what was pictured, but she seemed very confident and not at all phased by my request so I wasn't expecting it to turn out like this. It is my fault I didn't speak up about my concerns, but she spent 90 minutes on my nails so I didn't feel comfortable saying anything in the moment. I do think they mean well, and they are very kind, I'm just not sure the quality is quite what I would expect.

    I had an unfortunate first visit here. The two staff were very nice but switched back and forth working on my nails several times. I had a dip powder manicure previously. While taking off the old manicure they hurt me quite badly with the grinder. Now the next day my finger continues to hurt and it looks awful. The nail's themselves also aren't great. They appear lumpy and not finished well around the edges. I won't go back and I really hope my finger heals well. Maybe it was an off day but I won't risk going back. Update: well this has become a small nightmare. My finger did become infected and I had to take a course of antibiotics. This led to the unfortunate discovery of being allergic to said antibiotics and I actually had to be hospitalized to manage the symptoms for a short time. And to top it off my finger still doesn't look good. I think it will take months for it to look normal again. This has turned into the most expensive manicure I've ever had.

    I couldn't have asked for a better post covid salon visit. Considerate and patient with the covid restrictions. And a very thorough massage and scrub. I also appreciate that this salon is comfortable for men. Half the clients during my visit were men. I live out of town but will visit again when I'm back in Portland.

    i loved my experience today. good people, great pedicure. highly recommend coming here. simple service and they do good work.

    Tinh Le (Lee) is wonderful. She did a beautiful job on my gel French manicure. So good, in fact, I now go to her regularly instead of where I had been going for some time. She's friendly, stays late if needed, and her work impeccable. I have referred friends to her, and even brought in (without an appointment) my assistant manager who showed off her nails at work for days after we went. I was hesitant to leave a review because I'm selfish & spoiled. I'm worried she'll become too busy and I will have to book far in advance. But Tinh Le (Lee) deserves success. Even if it means I'll have to wait my turn.

    My full set the next day I got them

    Okay so I liked going here when Jolie would do my nails but someone else recently did my nails and I got bad results . I left the nail salon with crooked, thick , badly shaped , and bleeding nails. I also told the lady that the top coat had glitter in it and I did not want the glitter and she just argued with me that it's part of my nail color (but it obviously was not part of my nail polish). After the older lady with short shoulder length hair finished painting my nails I just paid Jolie and left. I wasted 1 hr and 30 minutes and wasted $50 just for a fill that turned out to be a pain. I will not be coming back sadly . Unfortunately I did not take a picture of the final results because I just wanted to leave the salon, I was in pain and angry. (The green nails was from the first time I went the salon , Jolie did great but this new lady did not do my nails good this time)

    They were very sweet took me in last min and met my expectations especially for something last min I wasn't sure where to go as I'm not from Portland but this is a good spot nice clean and friendly

    Chipped Shellac two days after my appointment!

    I'm really disappointed with the service I received. I came in after seeing some great reviews for kids pedicures, and sadly the shellac that they used has chipped on both my hands and my feet less than a week after getting them done. I went in and had my nails fixed after two chipped, and the following day the top coat started peeling off all my nails and now I have two nails that are totally ruined. Now for the pedicure....my feet are rough and peeling less than a week after my pedicure. Two toenails are also chipped already. I can usually go 3 weeks without having a chipped toe nail! At this point, I've already gone back to have my nails fixed once, so maybe the product they are using isn't a good product, I'm not sure. I'm really disappointed in the quality of this mani/pedi when I spent $150 on it...

Not only is Patty incredibly warm and accommodating but she knows her stuff. She is very knowledgeable and is happy to tell you exactly what is necessary and everything that is absolutely not when it comes to face products which is so refreshing because as a woman I know I have tried everything under the sun and have spent a fortune thinking I am doing the best for my skin. Patty's set up is so cozy and gorgeous. She is a fabulous decorator and she makes the environment not only serene but tastefully luxurious so you feel like you are in for a real treat. She did the first round of the Bioactive peel which I request since my previous esthetician said it does wonders. I really enjoyed it and didn't experience very much peeling at all. I look forward to coming back for the next one and getting one her facials!

They explained that you don't have the gel removed each time you can just have it filled in. They don't have to soak in acetone. They file away the color when you come to get the fill done. I loved it and the color was perfect. I would highly recommend that type of service and this place.
