I love it here! I have two go to manicure spots--one near home and one near work. This is my work adjacent manicure place of choice. This place is always busy and it's easy to see why! This lovely white + platinum look was chosen with the help of the owner (Anne, I think?) and my nail tech. I'd pulled some color samples that we're not polishes but understones for some specialty nail products. I explained what I wanted and they made it happen! The Platinum accent nail was not traditional gel but a powder polish that was applied via a small sponge (similar to an eyeshadow applicator) and the shine is so brilliant, I love it! Truth: sometimes you do have to wait a few minutes here--even if you have an appointment. Let them know if you're on a schedule: I typically go on my lunch break and let them know that I only have 45 minutes, and they work to get you serviced and on your way ASAP! read more

I got sparkly pink dip powder nails and a regular pedicure, and I couldn't be happier! The owner did an amazing job -- she was quick, precise, and gave me the perfect almond shape I wanted. My pedicure was great too, and the technician was super nice and careful with my ingrown nails. Overall, I highly recommend this salon and will definitely bring my friend and mother-in-law next time! read more

I can't speak enough good about this place. Ms.Maya and staff are amazing! They are accommodating, understanding, and provide quality service. Thank you Modern Nails and Organic Spa! read more

this was absolutely horrible. it was over priced and waited 45 minutes after my appointment time. i got scammed.

I've been looking for a new nail salon that offers a welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. Well, it looks like I've found it! My stylist, Trang, knew what I needed for my mani-pedi and explained what works best for the shape of my nails in relation to my hands. That was nice. She did an excellent job with the spa portion of my combo that really relaxed me. My fingers and my toes were pampered! The shop is light and bright with a touch of mellow listening music. I will go again and continue with Trang. read more

Modern Nails is a great little spot in Urbana. They have great parking right out front, and are always able to accommodate the group of women I go in with. Of course, we call and make an appointment ahead of time, because they are very busy. The price was very reasonable for the amount of time and effort put into the service. I highly recommend! read more

Took a friend for the first time here and the environment was pretty, but we were ignored the whole time. I said 3 different things and I was ignored all 3 times, like I wanted my heals to be extra cleaned ( cheese grader thing) she rolled her eyes and didn't do it, water was to hot ignored me and can you fix the nail I just watched you mess up she breathed in all annoyed. My friend got cut and her foot is raw but the kicker was at the end before we even finished paying we were asked for a tip while her hand was out when we just walked away that was literally the most noise we heard THE WHOLE TIME! The guy that works there he was sweet and helpful with color picking. We checked the receipt and there was already a 20% gratuity added when we paid. read more

A year later and they are still so good! Never disappointed with the service provided! They paint my entire nail which a lot of places never do and leave the sides undone. I'm a loyal customer! Highly recommend! read more

I love coming to Modern Nails and Organic Spa. Due to COVID, they are only taking call ahead appointments. Lin and her staff are always so friendly, welcoming and helpful. They always do a great job with my pedicures and manicures, and definitely thorough. As you walk in, you are asked to wash your hands. They are limiting seating capacity and there is a plexiglas barrier between you and the technicians either at the nail station or pedicure spa bowls. You are also required to wear a mask upon entering the salon. I definitely recommend visiting this nail spa when you're located in the Urbana area. It's one of the best nail spas. read more

Been trying to find somewhere that felt like home because I just moved out here from Massachusetts and this accidental find turned out to be hidden gem. I'm not from around here so I am not sure how we'll known this place is but my experience has been nothing but amazing. The crew here is wonderful and take pride in their craft! Even if it's just to take a break from your usual techs, come try this place out. You won't be disappointed read more

I've been to a lot of nail salons and really love Modern Nails! Always a great experience and consistently great job on my nails and my guests nails. read more

No complaints. Techs are very knowledgeable and do a perfect job. Very professional and on trend. I i have been twice and ever walked out disappointed. Tam aims to please! I'm thrilled to find this cozy place. They also have UV curing stations that are safe certified, using a red light. On the last visit I got a free gift of a nice hand lotion. Very happy read more

Tam is the man. When I say my nails look nice, look for yourself (pic attached). To say the least, I've been from one salon to another around Frederick and no one could ever get it right or the customer service was absolutely disappointing. THIS place is my new favorite. From the organic spa pedicure to my dip powder full set, everything came out fabulous. I am loving my nails! read more

Thank you Mya, my nails are beautiful! She spends time making sure each nail is perfect. Such attention to detail. I will definitely be back. read more

Very bad experience! Low quality! Gel nail chipping off! Looks like they use low quality products. Never experienced this before.

I just relocated to the area from Columbia, MD and decided to give this salon a try as it's in walking distance from my house. Overall, I was pleased with how my nails turned out and will definitely return. I was initially told it would be a 30 minute wait, but the tech said nevermind and was able to take me right away. The salon is clean and the selection of polish is on par with other salons. The reason for 4 stars is more about the ambiance/environment. There was virtually no one talking at all. It's not the most welcoming place, but hey if you're just trying to get your nails done and relax this may not be a problem. Service I received was a basic gel manicure. read more

Love this place the owner know sense I was 14 she the best het staff is very nice too

great leg massage but she cut me twice with the cuticle scissors, left rough spots on my nails, the polish on my toes didn't even make it through the day, and it's very expensive. my first and last visit. read more

They saved me! I had an appointment at another nail salon very close by to them that I had never been to. They were running late and I had to get my nails fixed ASAP for a prior engagement I had that day. I left the one salon and called modern nails and organic spa. They said they had a cancellation so the could take me right away. They were amazing. So prompt when I walked in they were ready for me right away. That made me so happy! My technician was Tam he was so friendly and nice. He did a beautiful job on my nails I could not have asked for more. He made sure that they were exactly how I wanted them, That I loved the color and was happy. I am definitely going to go back! The salon was very clean and nice and I can't beat the price! Highly recommend going! read more

We visited for manicures and pedicures. The products used are good quality with a great amount of selection of nail polishes. The staff is friendly, professional, thorough and talented. The salon is clean and inviting. The price was also very reasonable when compared to other salons in the area. It is located very easily off of 270 and secondary roads. We enjoyed our experience and will be returning in the near future. read more

Love love love this place! I've only gone in for the spa pedicures twice before and both times have walked out so happy and relaxed - I almost fell asleep last time! The color choices are varied and for the spa you get to pick a scent to put in the water, it's not overpowering it's just right. This place is clean, quiet and professional. Make sure to make an appointment if you are doing the spa portion! read more

Bright, welcoming, clean, with skilled and creative nail techs. Always happy with my dip manicure and spa pedicures. My daughters and I are faithful customers! Highly recommend! read more

I made an appointment a week ahead of time for a SNS manicure and a spa pedicure. Even though I made an appointment, it felt like the only thing the tech's wanted was to get the mani and pedi done as fast as possible and get you out the door. My nails look ok for the rush that they were obviously in. I did find it off putting that my tech kept commenting about my nails being too short as she scowled at them the whole time I got my manicure. They do not have matching gel/sns/regular colors so you're SOL if you are getting a gel mani/sns mani and want a regular nail polish on your toes to match. I was asked if I just wanted a polish change on my toes even though I made an appointment for a pedicure, once again I felt like they were just trying to do what is the quickest thing to get me out the door. The person who did my pedicure laughed at me when I said I wanted the Spa Pedicure, like I made and appointment for, and said she didn't have the time. Somehow she found the extra time and did do the spa pedicure, but for the extra money it's not really worth it. I'm not sure why this place is called a Spa. It is tiny and doesn't have any spa like perks, even where you get your waxing done you literally are laying down next to someone getting their nails done, very odd. Not even a glass of water is offered to you when you're there. I was really hoping to like this place but I doubt I'll go back. Not sure why it's so hard to find a nice quality nail salon in this area that does a consistent good job. Guess I shall keep trying.... read more

I woke up on a Saturday morning and decided I wanted to treat myself to a pedicure because it's been a while. Called this place and they got me in last minute. Very friendly and welcoming. I will definitely be going back!! read more

UPDATE: The morning after posting this review the owner called me. She was very apologetic & invited me to come back in for a new manicure at my convenience. The next evening I made it in and it was great! After discussing the scenario, we agreed that it was probably a issue with the product, not the skills of the nail technicians. (My daughter & I asked for matching manicures. However, different people did them.) Today, my manicure was completely reapplied with fresh product & it looks wonderful! Due to her work travel schedule, daughter can't make it in until the weekend. The salon owner is very gracious about this. One other thing I should point out: the pedicures were amazing from the start!! I sincerely appreciate their willingness to ensure my complete satisfaction! I would go back!!! My initial post follows... My daughter & I visited the salon yesterday for mani-pedis. The result was uneven, bubbled, & divots in the polish. Although they tried to sand & fix the problem, the results are horrible. One day later, the top layer has cracked & started to peel. The manicure around the nail bed resembles what I'm capable on my own. This is by far the biggest waste of money EVER. Avoid this place. read more

I got a gel manicure done on Tuesday and a day later two nails are already chipped. I get gel done all the time and never ever have I had this problem. Gel is supposed to last two weeks and normally it does. Of course it's Thanksgiving today and they aren't open so I can't even have them fix it. And I can't go this weekend because I work. I payed $35 plus tip for a less than a mediocre job. I don't recommend. read more

I was out of town and had to kill some time so decided to go here. When I called before hand I asked if they take walk ins and they so no, but they could take me. So I got there in under 10 minutes. If you are out of town and using your gps it will not take you directly there. This was not the bad experience part, although added to it. The lady that did my nails seemed very bothered to be having to take me and gave me about 2 minutes to select my SNS powder color. I was there to get an sns manicure and a regular polish change in my toes. After I had picked my nail color and asked for matching on my toes they told me they didn't have matching and selected a color for my that was not even close. So don't expect the colors to be even remotely close. Then we moved onto my nails where I asked if she could mix the SNS, as in do one layer of one color and a layer in another color she said "no we don't do that". I was shocked. My normal nail salon in Virginia suggests this and causes absolutely no additional work or complicated, not to mention this is a service salon. In addition to her denying my request she then proceeded to file my nails so hard I left with cuts on 2 of my fingers. I left with open wounds, unmatching toe and nail colors and smudged toes. I am positive there are many other nail salons that would offer a better experience and be willing to give you the service you are asking/paying for. read more

I love modern nails. They have exceptional service, very clean. They have great selection of colors from gel to powder dipped. My nails look amazing always. Greatly recommend this place. read more

I love the atmosphere, very friendly and detailed oriented. I moved recently to Urbana and tried other places. This is by far the best place in Urbana to do your nails. You can check other reviews at https://www.facebook.com/Modernnailsandorganicspa/ read more

Best in Urbana, I have been to all of the salons in Urbana, Passion, & OMG, and this is by far the best. Clean, and the employees are not only friendly but do a great job. Never has my gel lasted so long. Pedicures are great too (Lee), and Hanna on eyelash extensions. My new favorite place. read more

Best pedicure I've ever had. The salon was beautiful and the ladies took their time on the massage. Definitely recomendable!

Absolutely the best nail salon in the area! Love this place! Sunny and bright, nice atmosphere, and Lynn, the owner is so nice. I love the spa pedicures, and for a real treat, try the Pearl Spa Pedicure. Unlike other nail salons where the service is not that great, I actually look forward to coming here and getting my nails done. read more

I did not enjoy my experience here! my nails look so bad and it was way overpriced for what i got. I got dip powder instead of acrylics because they claimed it was overall better and i guarantee you it is not! Don't go here is all I can say... and less than a mile away is a much better and cheaper nail salon! read more

Clean, quick, lots of colors and my nails look amazing. I stopped in while on business. I'll go back when I'm in the area.

Always have great service here! And my manicures last a long time. Very hygienic and peaceful.

Don't make an appointment and think it will be honored. Sat waiting with no mention of how long I will have to wait, 30 minutes or more. What's the point. Plus, most of the technicians are not very nice. read more

I absolutely LOVE my nails each and every time I get them done. Lynn even does ombré with dip powder!!! It's beautful.
