My man and I visited for a pedicure, and it was nice that they seated us together. Back home in California, I have a specific technician who does my pedicures--she's not afraid to dig in and tackle ingrown nails. The person I had while visiting had a gentler approach, despite my request to dig. It was clear she wasn't very experienced, though she was sweet as pie. On the plus side, she did an outstanding job with polishing my toes.

I used to bite my nails and felt like I'd tried every type of polish and extension to no avail until I started coming here. Turns out the secret to breaking my habit was the precise builder gel application and refills I get every time I come here. The Charming Nails space is exactly as advertised, very charming. They don't need to hide behind fancy decor because the luxury is all in the treatment and care you receive here. The prices are also hard to beat. My nails have never looked better and I look forward to coming back each time I leave.

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.

I went on a Sunday morning and found the front desk a bit frantic despite there being 3 people working there. One pedicure tech finally sat me (for my appointment) but the foot bath wasn't functioning. Amber was my tech and moved me to another chair. While she was pleasant I thought the charge of $120 for a gel manicure and pedicure was too much given the lack luster environment. However, what cemented for me this place is horrible is that within 2 days the gel manicure chipped! First it was 2 nails. Now, 4 days later 3. I called and they wanted me to come back there to have them fixed. I said I would never return and they gave me some money back as I insisted. But the continued deterioration of the service after just days is clear this isn't good good nail spa. I don't recommend it and I wouldn't return.

I'm very particular with the shape of my nails and she has it down perfectly. She recommends colors she knows I would like when I am undecided on what to get. After a combo of skipping a pedicure (never again!) and tight shoes/exercise last year, one of my toenails started to irritate me and since then she always takes special care to prevent discomfort by making sure it looks and feels ok. Vivian is a talented pro and wonderful person. I always look forward to our appointments and catching up with her! Additionally, the front desk staff is very friendly and helpful. The salon is clean and well maintained. They took COVID protocol very seriously, only recently lifting mask requirements. Definitely recommend making an appointment - best nail salon in DC!

The nail technician (male) who worked on my naturally healthy nails did a poor job. The process took much longer than necessary, and without my request, he applied gel builder, which I didn't want or need. Typically, my gel manicures last at least three weeks without any issues at all, but this one barely made it a week before breaking and chipping. The finish was also noticeably bumpy, far from the smooth, polished look I expect from a professional manicure. I've attached photos to show the subpar results. While the ambiance and staff friendliness were highlights, the quality of the gel manicure itself was a huge letdown.
