Lotus Nails & Spa - Builder gel - Nail Salons Near Me - Fircrest, Washington

I have been going to this salon for several years for my pedicures. The people in this salon are always welcoming and really friendly no matter which nail tech you get. I have artificial knees and I cannot bend them in order to cut my own nails! I always am happy with the results, so. Much that I convinced my husband to try it! I will continue to go to Lotus Nails as long as I can! read more

My friends and family went here for years, but it's changed. Perhaps it's the crew, or something else. You are rushed, in and out. I don't know if they have paraffin wax any longer. The quality of service with the inflated prices don't mesh up any longer. I have seen tools used on client after client in the pedicure area, that scares me. Depending on who you get I end up with ingrown toe nails, this has happen several time. I don't like being rushed. The selection of new colors doesn't keep up With the seasons. The costs have went up, while service and quality has diminished. After pedicures for 2 people 1 man 1 female 100$ with tip- it's just no finger work tv it for us. We used to go with friends and make it an outing. I can't relax while being jabbed at with tools I don't think have been cleaned. It seems alike the paints being diluted, and begins chipping after a few days. Sad as this once was the cold star salon. I don't know what happen in the last few years. I've decided I can just paint my own nails. I don't know if there needs to be ownership? Christine was the owner when we went, she's a very happy wonderful woman- it's a different vibe. Years ago David was there and he did an excellent job- sadly he's been gone. He really was a perfection who gave you 10 star nails. It's just went down hill, sad, it used to be great. read more

I've been coming here for five plus years. Mya kills it every time. I trust her judgment and creativeness. She decided to do something I've never done before which was an ombre with white and pink acrylic. I couldn't be more happy. read more

Lotus Nails & Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Fircrest, Washington

I love Lotus for a few reasons; they are open everyday! How many of you want to get your nails done on a Sunday or Monday because... lots of us have those days of, just to find out that NOWHERE IS OPEN! Not Lotus, they are here to serve you 7 days a week! And they stay open until 8 PM! The spa itself is very clean, friendly and inviting atmosphere. The women that work here are for the most part friendly (I have had a couple questionable ladies...) AND they have an awesome selection of colors! My 1 "down-star" is due to my inconsistent experiences here. I have been treated super kind, and also treated like I was a big inconvenience (and not at the end of the day). I have also 90% of the time had amazing service and LOVED my nails. I have also left a few times wondering why I didn't do my nails myself... inconsistent. Not sure if I had new girls those few times, but if that's the case they should offer a discount. They are a bit more expensive then other nails salons also, however I could assume this may be due to being open 7 DAYS A WEEK AND OPEN LATE (again a plus!) Stop by if you are in the area on a Sunday or Monday (or any other day...) but be sure to call ahead as they are usually busy (yes I have been turned down a few times). read more

This nail salon was recommended by my co-worker who has amazing nails! I live in Puyallup but drove out to Fircrest because I was tired of getting lumpy gel nails at my local salon. Kim did my nails today, and she was FANTASTIC!!! So much attention to detail and they turned out perfect. My nails have never looked better. I think I showed up around 11:45 and didn't leave until shortly past 2pm. I had to have my old gross set removed and have a new set (acrylic powder) put on. It's perfect and I'll be back!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! read more

I've been going here for a couple of years now and I never leave disappointed. Everyone is so kind and they remember you even after one visit. I love that they have a selection of dip powder, gel, and regular color so you can get the same color even if you don't want gel on both your hands and toes. Highly recommend. I send all my friends and family here when they ask. read more

The nail tech starts off by trying to get me to add a tip to the end of my nails , saying they're very short. I asked if she couldn't do my nails without the tip and she said that she still could do them. She was very rush, rush. Each of my nails looks to this one. Doesn't look like a $45 job to me... I wanted the dip powder to help strengthen my nails, but they look like crap. The lady who took my payment was unnecessarily rude as well. I won't be going back. read more

I wish I caught the name of the guy who did my nails. I am super pregnant right now, and have a lot of random bouts of light-headedness. The beginning of our session I started feeling light-headed and felt so bad because I needed a break when we had just started, but the tech made sure I felt better. He turned the air conditioning on and even fanned me for a bit. He wasn't upset at all when I had to take a break and made sure I didn't feel bad about it. The nails look great, gel manicure, but the experience of being taken care when I was having a mini meltdown was the best part. read more

Price break down for today's visit: -brand new set $35 -shaping nails $5 -French tip $5 -pedicure $25 + shaping and French $10 Total: $70.00 + $10 tip Was it worth it? Yes. But only because they took the time and since it wasn't busy they didn't have to rush. The inside is really beautiful and elegant unlike some other ones in Tacoma. I don't live close but maybe if I'm in the area I will return for a filling. read more

This place is very friendly and the service was comforting. The only small problem I had was my 11am appointment didn't start until 11:10am. As the time went by I was concerned because I was expecting to start at 11am. Once one of the nail technicians started I was pleased. The appointment was an hour and I love the attention to detail when it came to how she applied the French tip. She made sure I was satisfied with my nails and I walked out happy and gave them a tip. The do get a lot of customers so I would recommend requesting an appointment and keep in mind you might not start for 10mins after the appointment. read more

Lotus Nails & Spa - Shellac Mani w/French Tip - Nail Salons Near Me - Fircrest, Washington

I came in here hoping to finally find a decent nail salon that I can become a regular to, definitely not the place. Customer service weren't all that atq all. I get it that when you're busy you may not give out the best service so I didnt really say too much till gal doing my nail and a few other ladies decided to talk smack about my nails in vietnamese, which I understand fluently. I cant help that I am a petite gal but dang did you really have to complain about how small my nails are and say I'm wasting my money here? Like okay cool let me get on with my day and not waste my money here then. Aside from that I still feel like my nails were a bit crooked, they didnt really take the time to make sure everything was good. Kind of just did it to get the job done and get money. I'm definitely not coming back here. read more

Made an appointment for my mom and I to treat her. There weren't any other customers and it felt like they were trying to rush us out. My massage lasted maybe 10 seconds. We got the deluxe pedicures which is $15 more JUST BECAUSE OF THE LOTION THEY USE. THEY DONT OFFER PARAFFIN OR HOT STONES. It is JUST the lotion that makes it deluxe. Don't waste your time or money on the deluxe pedicure. Also she dropped the curing light and yelled at me not to move all while it fell off on its own being on the ledge. read more

Been coming here lately for mani and pedis and am satisfied every time! They always work very quickly which I appreciate, but with that, they never make me feel rushed or like they're trying to get rid of me- they just always seem to be busy! Today I got both a mani (gel) and pedi done in 30 minutes total!!! They're rockstars! Thanks to all the workers there :) Will definitely be back. read more

Lotus Nails & Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Fircrest, Washington

I have to update my initial review: This place is no longer a great nail salon. It's like they all just suddenly don't give a crap anymore. I've been cut to the point of bleeding the last three visits with no discount or complimentary service to make up for it and barely an apology. Their attitudes stink! It's like they all hate being there and you're annoying them by being there because they actually have to work. Most importantly, the last time I went and was cut has now turned into a very painful infection under my nail bed. Heads up, they are not following safe and legal practices. They are supposed to use a new nail file, a new nail brush and a new nail buffer on every person. They've always used a used nail file on me. Tools are supposed to at the very least soak in an appropriate antibacterial solution for at least 20 minutes before being used. The most I've seen is they get sprayed down with some sort of solution and left for about 5 min and then dried off and put away. The last girl that did my nails also didn't even put a towel down. She just did my nails right over the bare tabletop. AND, their UV lamps need some serious cleaning! They are disgusting and look as though they've never been cleaned. This place used to care about their customers... but now I just feel like an annoyance, just another dollar... and this careless attitude has now left me with a very painful infection. Next step is to contact the health department. Needless to say, I will NEVER go back! read more

On an extended vacation and this place reminded me why it's important to have a specific nail lady. I was in a rush so three different women helped me get a fill. The sister that came that was supposed to be really fast was extremely rude. I tipped $12. Three for the two ladies that helped and six for the rude but fast nail lady (one of the sisters) She said something in her language when I said please split the tip and one of the girls laughed. They were just rude and unprofessional. read more

So happy with my pedicure and manicure! You can tell that they have top quality and care in mind.

David is wonderful! I'm convinced those aren't just eyeglasses he's wearing, they must be magnifying glasses. Impeccable work on my pedi. I always keep my nails trimmed but I needed a good sloughing since I work standing 8 hours/day.. He pays very good attention to detail & focuses on the rougher areas. Great massage - and for my polish he applied two coats, went back with a special brush and nail polisher remover to clean up - applied another coat - then touched up again! He was very pleasant, great small talk. This was a walk-in but next time I'll be sure to make an appointment just so I can have him do his magic again! Just as an fyi, this is not a rushed process, thank goodness - plan to spend about 80-90 minutes for a superb pedi. read more

Was so excited for mani pedi while home for Christmas. Made 10:30 appointment, was told to wait in the front. 20 minutes later, no one had spoken to us or explained why we were waiting so long. At 11:00, they put us in pedi chairs and all went fine. However, when we moved to get manis, Tracy (who did my pedi) left me to do an acrylic set for another customer and told me Wendy (who was helping my mother) would do my mani. So I waited 20 minutes while her mani was done, then she waited 20 for mine. What is the point of making an appointment if it's going to be so grossly ignored? The actual nail service was great, but I am furious at all the wait time. My time is much more valuable than this, and if I'd known about the multiple waits, I would have made an appointment elsewhere. read more

I had dipping manicure by Kim, she was excellent! A perfectionist! I'm very happy with Lotus. Recommend.

First off, this place is BEAUTIFUL ! I instantly fell in love with the decor and was positive I was going to have a great experience. I went in with a picture of how I wanted my acrylic nails to be done. And was greeted by Hana. Upon sitting down I asked her if she knew how to do ombre and she said yes and asked me to pick out colors. I started looking through some colors to match my picture but didn't see any so I shows Hana the picture and asked if she can help me find the colors. She looks at the picture and tells me it's just one color. I tell her, no it's a white and soft pink to do a French tip ombre. She looks again and brings it to the owner. The owner tells her it's color changing nail polish. Once again I say it is OMBRE ya know where one color fades into the other? Do you know how to do ombre ? Then she says ohh okay. Yeah we can do ombre. I am looking around I don't see any samples of the designs or colors they can do. So before she starts with the acrylic I ask her to show me a sample of how the ombre will look like and she grabs a plastic nail and starts with the white and then grabs a thin nail brush with acetone and drags is down and then says we only do ombre on glitter. I told her to just do the acrylic and I will find somewhere else to paint my nails. While she's doing acrylic I find a nail shop right across the street called Jessica's Nails and they can do ombre ! read more

In todays tale of what I asked for vs what I got see below pictures. I came in to have a spa day with my niece and daughter (10&6) as an early birthday present for my 6 yo. Also invited a friend so they could relax too. The rushed us the entire time and they weren't even that busy. My cuticles hurt so bad from having my skin drilled to death and neither of my kids got what they wanted. They also sat my six year old so far away from me she was so nervous and scared. And when I asked to have her near me they sat her with my niece. My friend joined us late but after seeing how her pedicure went decided to not get her manicure even tho I was buying (so that's how terrible it was!). 3-Gel Pedicures (1 with the crappy design pictured below); 1-Gel Manicure (with same crappy design); 1-Soak off and acrylic full set; and 1-Regular Mani/Pedi with one sticker on the thumb. $255 wasted! I wouldn't recommend this to place to someone I hated. Now I have to go redo this spa day RUN AWAY AND RUN AWAY FAST!! read more

This place was fantastic!! Kim did a pedicure and shellac nails for me ($50 total). She did a beautiful job and made sure it was exactly what I wanted. They take walk ins which is great for me because I never know when I'm going to have a free minute. They were busy when I walked in, but still got me started in less than 10 minutes. I will absolutely be back here next time I need my nails done! Highly recommend! read more

Lina is my absolute favorite here! I've had acrylic done before but they always seemed to break easily. This was the first time I haven't had a nail break within the first week! They seem so much stronger than the other acrylic nails I had. I wanted something my friend had done and she was able to recreate it with the powder (which I highly recommend over general polish) and did a beautiful job. I also had a pedicure done and it was so relaxing and they did a great job making sure everything was even and matched. I seriously look forward to my next appointment each time I make it. read more

This place is a solid place to get you're nails done in Tacoma! I made an appointment for midweek in the morning and I was accommodated immediately and was out within an hour. It's clean, friendly, and my nails look great. The reason for 4 stars was the lack of polish options but when I explained I wanted gel it was a wait to see what colors I wanted. Nothing to crazy. I would recommend if you're on the fence! $50 for gel manicure and regular pedi. read more

I do not have a picture of the before, but I'm so in love with the after ! My nails were breaking off for no reason , they were crooked and had bubbles all over them so they were peeling off too, even though I got them a week and a half ago ... Christine made them look so nice , plus they're not crooked anymore & she made the base really strong. The pedi by Vivian was amazing. Definitely coming back ! read more

I've been trying to find a good nail salon in the Tacoma area for a while now and this one by far is the best I've visited. This was my first time visiting Lotus, the place is clean and looks upscale and I had little to no wait time to get started. Tina did my pedicure and she did great!!! She had a smile on her face the entire time and interacted with my son a lot when he became fussy. Maya did my nails and let me tell you something, my cuticles are intact!!!! Not once did she even come close to it!! She was so accommodating and actually sang along to my son's nursery rhymes!!! It's hard to find a nail place that friendly. They both rendered great customer service. They have a new customer!! The Tola came out to $90 which was not bad at all. read more

I stopped by today for a brow wax, and am very pleased. I was greeted warmly, and my brows are beautiful. The wax isn't too hot, like other salons, so it was much easier on my skin when it was removed. I will return for any waxing needs I may have in the future. read more

I've tried this salon twice on recommendations from friends, and was disappointed both times. The first visit involved a sloppy pedicure and mediocre customer service, but given that others had a positive experience I thought I would try again. This time there were four people waiting, nobody at the reception desk. I browsed nail polish for about ten minutes and still none of the people in front of me had even been acknowledged by an employee, much less greeted and attended to. I left and went to a different salon. Will not go back. read more
