The salon is in inside the artists apt in a nice building and a very safe area. She's good with nail art. But, scheduling is not easy as all done through online booking platform so hard to get a follow up appointment that is convenient to you. Sometimes slots are weeks out. Cancellation and rescheduling fees apply as well as credit card is kept on file.

THANK GOD I found Anh on Instagram this past July! I had just moved to Cville and was struggling to…read morefind a great manicurist. I had been to another salon that was rated highly but I just wasn't impressed. Since I found Anh, I haven't gone anywhere else! Anh opened her studio in July of 2022 and will be taking all her clients there from now on, instead of working at her previous salon (not to say names but it sounds similar to dead bandits). If you love a good nail design and someone who takes their time with your manicure you need to go see Anh! She was very detailed and makes sure I get exactly what I want! She's working on building her clientele up and I know she'll do great because her work speaks for itself! She now does both manicures and pedicures! She can do gel, acrylic, or dip! Check her out on Instagram! @hoang.anh1606

Review for Tips and Toes Nail Salon - April 2025…read more I visited Tips and Toes with my daughter for a mother-daughter day. We were looking forward to some quality time and self-care, and while the technicians were kind and the work itself was well done, I left the salon feeling taken advantage of due to the pricing and lack of transparency. Before going, I estimated the cost to be around $350, including tip--a generous allowance for what I expected. However, I was charged $467.31, including a 30% tip. I didn't have time to review the total immediately, as we had other appointments. Later, I returned to ask for an itemized receipt because the amount didn't feel right. Here's what was listed: * Daughter's gel pedicure - $70 * My full acrylic set with gel polish (hands) - $75 * Daughter's dip manicure - $65 * My full acrylic set (toes) - $60 * Classic pedicure add-on for my toes - $49 * Nail extension for daughter's dip manicure - $10 * Gel color add-on for my toes - $20 This brought the total for my toes alone to $129, despite the fact that I had already done all prep work myself the night before, including cutting cuticles and removing calluses. I simply wanted a full set of acrylics on my toes--not an additional $49 charge for a classic pedicure that wasn't requested. What's more, when I asked about pricing for future fill-ins, I was quoted $65 for hands and $110 for toes. I've never been charged anything close to that price for fill-ins on my toes in the past, and I've been getting my nails done for decades. At no point were prices posted anywhere in the salon or clearly communicated to us before services were rendered. If I had known that a full set on my toes would cost $129, I absolutely would have declined. That kind of expense was not foreseeable and, in my opinion, not clearly justified. The experience has left me feeling misled and disappointed. I believe in paying fairly for services, but customers deserve upfront transparency. I hope the salon considers posting visible pricing and being more communicative with clients about add-ons and their associated costs before starting services. I truly wanted to leave this salon feeling pampered and peaceful--but instead, I left with a sense of being taken advantage of. I'm sharing this in hopes that it encourages better practices for future clients.

I couldnt even get the service I wanted because the "acrylic specialist" was busy. So I said fine no problem I could do without it. My toe nails were uneven due to previous application that required filing. Instead of fixing it and smoothing it out, she just applied polish on top and told me she was going to just square them. I just left with the base coat on, nothing more. $45 later. I didnt argue because I am not that kind of person but if you saw what I walked out with you'd ask why I even paid to begin with. Im visiting town and just wanted them to look nice while out in sandals. Now I have to find someone to fix it.
