Monica absolutely crushed it with my builder gel mani. I especially appreciate that they put sunscreen on your hands before curing the gel, and the hot scrub, oil, lotion and towel at the end are really top notch and very relaxing. I felt so pampered. The drink included with each session was the cherry on top of a very chill evening. Thank you, nailsaloon! You get me.

I made a same-day appointment for a gel manicure at this salon while in Crystal City a few weeks…read moreago. It was one of the closest salons and the positive reviews sealed the deal. I arrived at the cozy salon after a short walk through the lobby of the Crystal Towers apartment building and an elevator ride to the ground floor. I was paired with a nail technician who appeared to be learning the ropes. Not an ideal situation and one I would have thought twice about had I realized beforehand! I encountered a series of mishaps during my appointment. The nail technician nicked my right pinky finger. Also, the color that I selected was so diluted that it required four coats and resulted a lumpy mess. The technician took the initiative to redo the manicure even though it delayed her schedule. I appreciated her commitment to providing a quality manicure instead of a subpar one resembling a toddler's work. The owner kindly offered an alternative nail polish color from a different nail polish brand. Throughout my visit, I noticed a few customers (presumably regulars) getting haircuts. While the styles weren't anything special, the clients seemed happy with the results. With two pedicure stations, two manicure stations, and some hair stations as well, this salon is clearly a hodgepodge of different services. My visit served its purpose; however, I would not go out of my way to get my nails done here again.

I lived in the Crystal Towers for several years and used this salon every three weeks for almost…read morethe entire duration of my apartment stay. I always had my hair cut by Kay and consider her to be a personal friend. She is always friendly and her attention to detail is amazing. My favorite part of the haircut experience here is the shampoo before and after. You really feel pampered here and the quality of the haircut is the best I have experienced while living in the D.C. area. Their prices are very reasonable for the amount of care and time that they spend on you. Helen is also very friendly and my friends who used her loved her results as well. Please give this salon a try!

I got there and was greeted and offered a drink. They have sooooo many colors to pick from! There were ~10 other customers in the salon but my mani started promptly at 7:15pm (my appointment time). Sarah was so sweet, gentle, friendly, and detail-oriented. She took her time and did not rush me out. Everything seemed clean and neat inside. It seemed like there was street parking outside, not sure about any nearby lots or garages... it is a ~10-15 min walk to the crystal city metro. BTW - they do accept AMEX - i know some salons don't. I think my mani turned out great! I already had short nails, so there wasn't much to work with lol. She did 2 base coats, 3 layers of color, and 1 top coat. The real test will be how long it lasts, because my gel never lasts 2 weeks! I would definitely come back!

The prices are as shown with no additional taxes or fees just ability to tip at your discretion. I got the classic manicure which was very affordable at only $22. They had a large selection of OPI nail polish and the nail tech put an Essie clear coat which made the polish last about 2 weeks with rough use. She was efficient and not very chatty. This would be a 5 star experience except that the nail technician that I got was a little rough removing dead skin which caused a lot of hang nails a few days later.

They are always great with timing but I highly recommend just simply setting an appointment, Danny is really good about scheduling everyone in as best as possible. Even though they do accept walk-ins be mindful just as any other business the volume of their customers is unpredictable some days. Their location is perfect since it is right off the Crystal City metro stop. I personally live within walking distance so they've always accommodate my random visits to stop by and get my nails or feet done. So just call and they'll fit you in! I highly recommend this location because once I moved to the Crystal City area, I tried multiple nail salons in the area and this is the only location I return to. The prices are good, staff are friendly and it's extremely convenient for me. Lauren did my Classic Pedicure this morning but i have had each of these ladies for different services. I usually do SNS manicures and Gel Pedicure. I have even gotten my eyebrows waxed and tinted here so definitely stop by, you can get everything done at once.

I went to Metropolitan Nail Bar for a dip polish removal and a new dip manicure. During the removal process, the technician left acetone on my nails for over an hour without checking on them, while working on other clients. My nails began to burn and became very painful. When she returned to remove the remaining polish, I told her it was hurting, but she didn't acknowledge or respond. She then aggressively filed the tops of my nails, to the point where they felt extremely thin, sensitive, and were burning. When applying the new color, there was a noticeable line between where the polish was and wasn't applied. I pointed this out, and she seemed visibly frustrated. Although she added more color, her tone and demeanor came across as annoyed and dismissive. For the next two days, my nails continued to burn, but I was too worried to use more acetone to fix anything, so I left them alone. Once my nails started to grow out, I went to my usual salon to have the dip removed. As I suspected, my nail beds had been filed down excessively. There is now a clear difference between the new growth and the previously filed areas, and my nails are now weak and breaking. Overall, this was a painful experience with lasting damage to my nails. I would not recommend this salon based on my experience.

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.

More than once, I've come in at my APPOINTMENT time with a specific nail tech and I've been told that the nail tech is running an hr or 2 behind schedule, or that they can't take me at all. Today, after I made an appt--the 1st of the day-- more than a week ahead of time for 10 a.m. with a specific nail tech I got there at 10 and waited 10 minutes. Then was told the nail tech was running an hr behind. I asked "How can she be an hour behind? I have the 1st appt of the day." The receptionist said she came in at 8am. We called you & you didn't pick up. No apology. No message was left on my phone. Total disrespect of a customer and no apology. NOT RETURNING!

Let me start of by telling you that I have some bad experiences ever since I relocated to Md. from Va. I was originally driving back down to PWC Va. going to my regular Salon but it became tedious to do plus my stylist moved to Cali anyway. So, I tried a few ppl where I live in Gaithersburg but they just didn't work out. Either the job was BAD or the price was outrageous or BOTH. So I gave up and let my natural color grow out. BUT...I've been really wanting copper and I needed a cut, so I finally made an appt at Dazzle. I am so glad did, because my color came out beautifully! I can not be happier! Sometimes the drive can be worth it and this was it! Posting pictures soon!
