    What my nails looked like right after leaving the salon
    Shenna G.

    If I could give a -1 star rating, I would. I've gone here many times over the past two years, pre and during covid. I always go to Mary, but this time I came on a whim and she was already helping another client. I asked for a gel pedicure and received the older man as my technician (didn't get his name). He initially did such a good job with my pedicure that I decided to give him a try on my hands. BIG MISTAKE. I asked for a soak off/removal and new gel set. I wanted long black stilettos and currently had much shorter tips on. Upon him inspecting my hands/acrylic nails, he says, "You don't need a new set, just a fill in and I can make pointy shape you like". I asked him if he could definitely make the nails longer, he said, "no problem". He starts to file and shape my old set. I tell him that it wasn't pointed/sharp or even long enough to my liking (see photo) and he goes, "Oh okay, I'll give you new set". (Which I originally asked for). He then proceeds to cut my nails and try to use a tool to lift the acrylic off instead of soaking them. I tell him after wincing and gasping 3xs, "you're hurting me/my nail", so he tries a different tool. The 2nd tool didnt work, so he THEN tried to use a new tip to lift the old nail. INSTEAD OF SOAKING MY NAILS. I see my pinky nail crack right down the middle immediately (I have brittle nails, which I already was aware of). I asked him to stop, informed him he cracked my nail. He responded "its not cracked, we'll soak off". I asked for the "manager"(didn't get a name), tell her what happened and showed her my nail. She talks to the old man in his native tongue and he starts to soak my nails; after the third round of soaking/filing, he looked at my damaged pinky, looks me in my face and says, "This was already cracked/damaged". I lost it, the manager came back over to apologize again. At that point I was done, I paid for my pedicure and left. It was the worst service I've ever experienced there and i dont think ill be back anytime soon. I just checked the rest of my nails again, my left middle nail is cracked and cut past the new nail growth as well. I headed home in tears to fix the damage he's done. NEVER HAVE THAT MAN TOUCH YOUR NAILS. I don't understand how we are paying for service/what we want and the "professionals" won't listen. I work in the service industry and normally give more leeway than the usual customers, but this time was way to much

    I've been going to Nail Spa for a few months now and I'm very impressed with Mary. She doesn't rush her work . Mary pays attention to the minir details, all while working in a timely fashion . They practice social distancing at Nail Spa. They do temperature checks and they also provide hand sanitizer. I recommend this nail salon, as well as, Mary for your Nail salon services.

    Job well done my nail tech MiMi was great. Given I was a bit traumatized after my last nail visit at Fantasy Nails in Silver Spring. I decided to give another salon a go. Glad I did. Mimi saw that my nails were in bad condition and performed magic! I will go back. I didnt give 5 stars because the overall appearance and atmosphere of the nail salon could be updated. Other then that they are all good...so far!!!

    I was pretty anxious to come here due to the other reviews but all of the nail shops that are near my home have about the same type of reviews so I figured I'd give this place a try. The interior could be updated at some point, but other than that, they are clean and they open new packs of tools for every client. If you don't see them do this, you can always ask. They cover the pedicure tubs with plastic, which should be the standard in every salon now. My technician was Vicky and she was really nice and gentle with me. I got the SNS powder gel and a classic pedicure. She dipped my nails into all of the powder but next time I will ask for them to sprinkle it on with a brush or put it in a separate jar. I didn't know this was a sanitary issue before I went. My only actual complaint is that I wish the gel could have been slightly thinner. She could have buffed just a little more. But other than that the experience was just fine. I will probably go back when my gel grows out and go back to Vicky to soak them off. Go in morning to mid day on a week day (except Friday) if you can, especially if you're doing a walk in. Going in at a busy time to any salon, they'll just rush and you won't be happy. Overall I like this place. I will be going back.

    I took my daughter to this salon to get her nails done for prom. The manicure itself turned out looking fine, but while the technician was trimming her cuticles (with a high powered file), he made her cuticles bleed on three separate fingers. She asked for a gel manicure, but the nail tech put on nail tips, and then acrylic over that, and then gel on top of the acrylic. She asked a few times if he was putting acrylic on her natural nails and he assured her that he wasn't, even though he was clearly dipping his brush in the powder and putting it on her nails. It's a day later and a piece of the gel manicure on the thumb has already chipped. Her cuticles don't look healthy, and they are red. I wouldn't come back here.

    Literally so bad, these cost $55 and they look awful. This is "almond" shaped. The nail goes all the way up past my cuticle like it's on my skin they're so large and thick and over buffed in certain spots so the color is uneven and it looks cloudy and weird and there's a bunch of bumps and air bubbles. This is the first time in my entire life I have ever not given a tips.

    I came here after work because I didn't like the way they did my nails at Rose Nails in Lanham, and normally I would pay $25 for a gel fill set but they charged me $35. Ms. Vicky did my nails and she did a good job. Can't complain. I'm just used to more luster. The polish around my cuticles are inconsistent, but I like how she shaped and molded my nails. She takes her time with the molding of the acrylic. She didn't rush me to pick a color like some of these other places do. I may go back again in the near future. But going into the salon its small and the space is tight. They have been there since the 90's. I'm surprised they are opened Sundays. It looks like it can get filled pretty quick because of the small space. For $35 I want a few more amenities.

    the man was very rude they did my nails super ugly I'm never going here he'll no

    Look at the middle finger?! And she charged for LENGTH.  WHAT?!

The male nail tech seems disgruntled and is low vibrational. The last 3 times he did my nails they either chipped, smudged or 1 nail completed fell off. It's a shame because he has potential to be an excellent nail tech if he can put his ego to the side and learn how to serve his clients. After giving me a new nail set at my last fill in appointment he told me my next appointment will be a new set: I told him no way. They seem to view their clients as walking ATMs--it's an uncomfortable feeling: They constantly badger you to do new sets, gel mani-pedis or expensive "spa" pedicures even after you've told them specifically the kind of services you want/prefer--it's more "them" focused than client focused. Btw,I was never thanked for my $20-$25 tips --ever. This last appointment took the cake--nail tech dude nicked my skin with his super sharp nail tool and blamed MY skin for "growing too close to the nail". This happened after leaving me under the fan for 15 minutes while he enjoyed a phone conversation right in front of me--so I knew it was because he wasn't paying attention--he seems resentful of his customers and unhappy to do this kind of work. When I arrived for my appointment (no such thing really because they treat everyone as a walk-in) he and a young girl didn't move to seat me, I had to ask them if they were working today in order to mobilize them--mind you I was the only customer. That said, I won't be back. I'm big on customer service and positive energy and I pay well for it, but it's not to be found there.

I was told she doesn't do designs but I needed them done. True to word it was basic but still good service. Fast forward to Sunday,, one of my nails cracked in the worst place ever. I went back.

I don't know the name of the lady that assisted me today but she's and Eagles fan She asked what shape did I want as my nails were more almond shaped than stiletto.. Not only did she repair the broken nail but she reshaped and relished all of my nails. In the end she didn't charge me a dime. Of course I walk around with no cash. I left ran an errand and came back with a tip. The first thing she said when I walked back through the door is you don't have to do that. I said to her neither did you.

Now, I could have made a specific appointment or plan ahead, but these things tend to be spontaneous for me. I walked into this place, and they weren't ready at the moment but asked me to come back in about 40 minutes, which was not a problem because I was hungry and needed to get food anyway. They were only two people working in there, and both seemed really nice. And they were using Amazon music to play some amazing tunes. Amazon music is my jam! I didn't get the name of the person, but it was a relaxing experience overall. The temperature was perfect for my feet, but it was extra extra foamy. It wasn't a problem for me personally, but I felt bad about it getting on the seats, it came that high haha. And here I liked that I didn't have to move to a table for the manicure portion! It made it truly feel like a spa experience. The job was great, but later on I realized that some cuticles were handled a little more roughly than others. But she said she was having some serious pain with her hands. Hope she feels better! Anyways, I would return, because I overall like the vibe of this place better than my usual spot.

She also worked with another manager at the store and was able to set up my next appointment with a specific tech - I believe it was Emily. Tiffany was very communicative via both text and DM on there Instagram account, which I used to schedule my next appointment. She was also there when I arrived for that appointment to ensure things went smoothly. Emily was very attentive during my service, and ultimately I was happy with this set. I did SNS and Emily finished with a gel top coat. Since I prefer to not have gel that is cured by UV, I may not return regularly. However, this salon has a huge selection of not only regular colors, but specialty colors as well, such as cat eye and jelly polishes. Jelly polishes are definitely on my list to try in the future, so I'll likely be back for that. I very much appreciate the team's outreach and support after my last review, and it's clear that they care greatly for the service they can provide their customers.

    Update: The owner responded and characterized my request as "extensive cuticle work." To clarify, I…read moreonly asked for my cuticles to be pushed back before Gel-X application, and the technician had already begun applying product without doing so. The owner also referred to my Instagram comments as "spam." Sharing the same truthful experience on multiple public platforms is not spam. IF THE OWNER IS WILLING TO SPEAK WITH ME AND PROVIDE THE GEL-X SERVICE WITH BASIC CUTICLE PREP INCLUDED, WITHOUT THE ADDITIONAL $10 FEE, I'M WILLING TO RESOLVE THIS AND REMOVE MY COMMENTS. I would not have posted any of this had there been a genuine effort to problem-solve with me at the salon. ---- I was extremely disappointed with my experience here, and I will never be coming back. I came in for Gel-X nails, and the technician began applying gel adhesive without even pushing back or properly prepping my cuticles. When I asked for my cuticles to be pushed back before the extensions were applied, I was told it would cost an additional $10. I completely understand charging extra for a full manicure or extensive cuticle trimming. What I do not understand is charging extra for basic nail preparation before applying extensions. Proper prep affects how the nails look, adhere, and last, and I was not comfortable having Gel-X applied to an unprepped nail bed, so I stopped the service. They also charge extra for gel polish, and even though I brought my own, there was no adjustment in price. I was already paying for an expensive pedicure with builder gel and gel polish, so the lack of flexibility over something as basic as cuticle prep felt excessive. I would not recommend this salon to someone who regularly gets their nails done and is willing to pay for quality service. I have no problem paying for my nails, but I do have a problem being charged extra for necessary parts of the service. At that point, it feels less like premium service and more like being ripped off.
