    Powdered gel, Shellac, full set, short, nude, 90$ ..................................................................................................

    I love coming here, they did a great job with my wedding nails! Highly recommend for gel manicures.

    High quality nails!

    María is amazing! My wedding nails were customized and she took her time to get the length and shape down! I been a client here for years and Maria is THE BEST! Highly recommend. Im very picky and she never fails to impress me!

    $76 full set...

    Very disappointing visit.. communication with my nail tech was hard and I ended up leaving with something completely different than I asked for as she could not understand what I wanted as their was a language barrier. My fill was $45 which is higher than their price listed but that always happens. My friend's full set was $76. Completely different quality of nails than mine, so inconsistent work between nail techs, and was a mediocre attempt at what she asked for. She was told her short/medium coffin nails were $70 and her one single line art on the nail was $6. I've gotten way better and more detailed nails for cheaper. Both of our hands hurt a lot from how bad we got burned by the drill, and we both have had acrylics for YEARS. Pictures of nails done by this salon are completely different quality than what is received.

    My go to salon! I used to live right down the street but I will still drive the 20+ mins to go here when I can. Lots of color options, free drinks and options for pedicure styles/ scents. Also their waxing skills are top notch!

    I'm extremely sad to be writing this review. The times I've come here, I've loved my pedicure, so it has taken a lot for me to write this. The women who have done my pedicures are very nice and gentle. Yesterday I got my pedicure done by the man who works there and he was extremely rough. He scrubbed my foot so hard and on top of my foot not the bottom which I thought was so weird. I wanted to cry at the salon because it hurt so bad but kept it in because I did not want to make a scene. I knew the cuts were deep but I stuck it out because I've always liked my pedicures from this place in the past. Not only did they dismiss how deep my cuts were, they did not even take any little percent off my pedicure. I wasn't expecting anything big off, but these are no small scrapes, I'm going to a wedding and my feet will now have scabs on them. If you go here, do not get a pedicure done by the man.

    Very nice clean place. Mary is talented and does amazing acrylics. She's good at designs and shaping! I will definitely be back. A little on the pricey side.. Oh, and they offer drinks... Soda, wine, water and mimosas. Nice family also..

    I'm disappointed to say the least. If you know anything about acrylic nails you would know that the correct liquid monomer to use is EMA monomer NOT MMA! MMA monomer can be seriously damaging to your natural nails and raises your risk of infection! I was beginning to soak off my broken nails to replace them myself and I encountered this... (pictures shown) This place does not care about the health and safety of their clients! They just want your $$$. They had the audacity to charge me +$80 for an all gel polish set! (Besides the clear acrylic base) I specified that I wanted all acrylic and they told me it wouldn't look good. MMA is also a cheaper alternative to EMA soo what exactly did they charge me for? Their product is obviously shit

    Great nail salon!! Mary knows how to do nails well & her daughters are very helpful and good at nails as well. Mary mostly specializes in acrylic nails so if you come in just for a manicure shellac you will probably get the daughters or one of the other workers. I love coming here early in morning when they just open, the service is very nice and not rushed because there are no other clients. The prices are reasonable here! More name brand polishes for shellac vs. the regular polishes most of which are brands I've never heard of. They have a punch card for multiple visits which is a plus and has me coming back.

    Went in to get acrylic nails and it was the best experience I have ever had! The owner's husband glued my tips on and made sure i was comfortable with the placement and constantly checking if I liked it. Mary, who actually did the nails, was sweet and welcoming & was also constantly asked for my input on if I liked the nails. Definitely coming back!

    I never write reviews...but I just recently came in for a fill with Mary. Heard great things about her. BUT she was VERY CARELESS when using the electrical nail file she ended up cutting the side of my pinky really badly I was bleeding a lot. It hurt to use my hand for two days. I get my nails done all the time and no one has hurt me as bad as she did. I STILL HAD TO PAY AFTER SHE MUTILATED MY FINGER. Gave me a bullshit ass discount of 8$. Never going back.

    I have been in search of a great nail salon in PDX for three years and for the last two I have been coming here because they take care of me so good! I don't know why it's taking me so long to write this review but seriously they're really nice people and they do a great job and really take their time on your nails... I also get my waxing and pedicures done here. They also have so many colors to choose from for shellac which I love. I don't go anywhere else but here even with it being a 30 min drive! Plus complimentary mimosa!

She saved me when my adult acne was out of control, before my wedding, and when I became pregnant and my skin went nuts. I've been offered free or reduced deals other places, but I could never leave Patty. If you want to heal your skin inside and out, Facing Grace is the most professional and relaxing place you could find in Portland.

    What a wonderful hidden gem. I feel so relieved I found this place and knew immediately walking in…read morethat I'd never have to search for another esthetician. Not only is Patty incredibly warm and accommodating but she knows her stuff. She is very knowledgeable and is happy to tell you exactly what is necessary and everything that is absolutely not when it comes to face products which is so refreshing because as a woman I know I have tried everything under the sun and have spent a fortune thinking I am doing the best for my skin. Patty's set up is so cozy and gorgeous. She is a fabulous decorator and she makes the environment not only serene but tastefully luxurious so you feel like you are in for a real treat. She did the first round of the Bioactive peel which I request since my previous esthetician said it does wonders. I really enjoyed it and didn't experience very much peeling at all. I look forward to coming back for the next one and getting one her facials!

    Walking in they have a small waiting area and although there are 4 chairs, that's not enough. I…read morewent on Friday and it was pretty busy and they were behind cuz it was about a good 15-20 min wait. Front desk lady was real nice checking me in (but seemed confused about the whole yelp thing and read my email for a little while, as well as scheduling didn't seem to be all familiar with the yelp situation either which made making an appt super confusing since first time guests get the same free service they were offering for the yelp drawing- so it ended with a 'well first time guest get it free so it's the same thing' ) Once you walk back the hall way (in clackamas location) was super cool! It looked kinda castle like. The room it's self was rather small, not that a ton of room is needed but it did feel a little crowded. The walls and ceiling seemed a little outdated, but that honestly has nothing to do with the services itself, just not appealing to the eye, however they did tell me they are open every single day and just haven't had time to update. My technician, Alicia, was so amazing! Really nice, sweet, and explained everything to me. What she will do, how she will do it, why she was using certain things and so on. So this place uses a special European comfort wax, which is a gorgeous deep amethyst color and apparently is made specifically for this waxing company. It's a certain mix that supposed to make the wax more 'comfortable' . I figured it was just a hype but I was actually really surprised! It's a hard wax, which means no strips, it drys on your skin and hardens up to be ripped off. I've used many types of waxes and I felt like this wax was very.. fluffy?? Silky? Airy? I'm not sure how to describe it, but like you didn't really notice it going on. It seemed pretty flexible too so it didn't snap or break when being taken off. I would have enjoyed having a side my side comparison with another wax to see if what I thought in my head was real. Before waxing took place they wipe you down with an oil to keep the wax from sticking to your skin. Then after wipe you down with an oil to get any residue off and also an anti ingrown hair wipe. After a full 24 hours I was really surprised at how well the area looked. It wasn't irritated or sensitive. It all was totally normal. They offer deals too which I've never seen a wax place do- anything from buy X get Y free to unlimited waxing for the year, all discounted. I really enjoyed the experience and would love to try some more waxing. Update: Ive had plenty of waxes before and the grow out of always less than fun, especially near intimate areas. Grow back had been pretty similar as other places, BUT the months to follow have shown a real difference. Im not sure how to really explain it if you havent experienced it before. Ill just say results have been more than expected and better than other places i have been to (and a noticeably less amount of hair back)
