See all

I've never had a better experience at a nail salon. Jesse did my nails and I'm obsessed with them. She did an incredible job and was so sweet!!! read more

Sad to say this was the worse manicure I've ever received. I brought my daughter and her friend in as a treat as she was about to graduate from CU Boulder. The woman I got seemed to have little interest in her work. Maybe she was having a bad day. However, even if she didn't have the friendliness disposition she did a poor job. I haven't had a manicure in years and I really wanted her to work on my cuticles and shape my nails. Instead of pushing my cuticles back and working on them she took the electric file, I believe they use for acrylics, and used that to file down my cuticles. I have indentations and markings where she used the electric file. I am really worried what condition my nails will be by the time they grow out. I feel like they will be very weak and brittle. Also 4 out of my nails were not even cut and filed straight. My husband, who is not very observant, even noticed. The manicure was the basic one and was said to be about 1/2hour. Mine took 20 minutes tops, probably closer to 15mins. Won't be back:( read more

Incredible experience. Angel was extremely kind and considerate of my needs, and the atmosphere is relaxing. Thank you, Polish Nails! I'll be coming back. read more

I just found this place after living in Boulder awhile. My sister needed a quick wax before an impromptu date and wax in the city had a 3 week wait time. (Seriously? My hair grows back in 3 days, not an option!) I got a deluxe pedicure ($35) and a gel manicure ($35-40) while I waited. Polish does a great job and the massage/pedi's are super relaxing. They also adjust the bath temp for those of us who don't like the water too hot. Most importantly, they don't attempt to "cut out" hang nails and ingrowns and will cut across (as should always be done to avoid further ingrowns). My sister's experience was even better. She went to Kelly for her wax and was very impressed. Apparently Kelly is serious about taking off "EVERYTHING" and will not let you leave until you are smooth inside and out. Since a lot of places will leave, ahem, a tailfeather or two, this is a great option for the perfect wax. read more

As a monthly visitor to Boulder, Two of us scheduled dipped nail manicures on Saturday afternoon. Both if us were very disappointed with results. I felt my technician was inexperienced or inept with the technique. I ended up with extremely thick layers on nails and hugely uneven across different fingers. The process took over an hour and did not include any cuticle clean up, soaking or massaging. I don't think I ever a had a manicure that didn't do any of those things. read more

Had a pedicure from the older technician from Vietnam who used to own a restaurant. She clipped the cuticle of one nail until it bled, razored the side of my big toe until it also bled, then pumiced my feet until both pinky toes were raw. Then charged full price. Soooo crappy customer service, and a very weak, limp handed foot rub. Not coming back here. Ever. read more

They rescued my nails! I'd had a really bad experience with another salon. The gentleman who gave me a new set of acrylics was very nice and did a fantastic job. This is the fourth Nail salon I've been to since I moved to Boulder and I think I've finally found one I'll be sticking with. The salon was pleasant to be in and it was very easy to find! (Just near Whole Foods) read more

I have been going to Polish for about a year because I receive consistently long lasting gel manicures that make my thin nails look beautiful. Every single time. I will agree with others that the pedicures are possibly as good as the tech you get, but my experience with them has been very good overall. Polish is clean, professionally run, and the owners very sweetly treat you like family. read more

Best pedi I have had in a long time. Ann did an amazing job Reina also did wonderful with my shellac mani and the fireworks design her daughter painted on my ring fingers were a plus! Great, positive experience - I will be back for sure! read more

A friend and I decided to get a mani/pedi last minute one Saturday. We chose ten twenty but they were booked so they sent us here. It was a horrible atmosphere. I don't know if anything was cleaned. They still use razors to rid dry skin from the foot... and then I was cut not once but two times on the left foot. I didn't know how bad it was until she put my foot in the parafin and it hurt like hell. She asked "Too hot?". No not too hot, I could see the blood inside the bag. She knew she cut me but I didn't even hear a sorry. I paid left and will NEVER be back. I don't get the feeling I'll be missed read more

This place is the best in boulder, don't go anywhere else. Anthony and every team member I've been to have been amazing. They actually care about detail and go the extra mile that other places just don't! I was so sick of paying over $100 to get my nails and toes done and leaving not only underwhelmed but pissed off. Other place left bubbles, thick uneven nails, poor paint jobs, and just expect you to be ok with it! Not this place, the attention to detail is amazing and I've left so happy every time. They actually take the time to make sure your nails look they should...I was literally shocked the first time I went in.. that's how long this lady took to make sure my nails were perfect! I've tried at least 5 different salons here in town and now I will only go to Polish. Oh, also it's so clean and actually relaxing! No loud TVs but classical music! The best massage chairs as well. read more

I have been going to Kelly at Polish for 6 years and love my nails. Although they are acrylic they look very natural. I can be very fussy and Kelly is always very kind, understanding and professional with me and my concerns. read more

Went there for the first time today and loved it. They were so helpful and did a truly amazing job! Will definitely be going back

This place is great! My two friends and i waked in when there were about to close and they stayed over time to assist us. It was great definitely recommend! read more

The woman was pushy and hurried me as I tried to pick a nail color. I asked to paint one nail on each hand a different accent color and she refused and told me that my nails were too short to look good with an accent color. There was nothing relaxing about the experience. read more

This is the best place to get your nails and your toes beautifully colored and polished for the holidays. I just love the special service they give you. I always get a pink and white manicure. For my toes I love gel. check it out. You'll love it. read more

Tried them all. Not sure why anyone would go anywhere else. If you want a relaxing professional pedicure where the nail tech concentrates on your pedi rather than talking or answering phones, come here! Same prices might as well sit back and relax! read more

The pedicures from the younger ladies are great. I had one from the older lady, and given my feet were in terrible condition, but she did a somewhat shoddy job. The guy that works there (possibly the owner?) gives great manicures (I don't do fake nails). I get the french manicure most of the time. He paints them on in a way that follows the tip of my nail and doesn't look trashy. read more

My 3 girlfriends and I had a great experience here! The staff was so sweet and attentive. Would recommended getting the SNS!

Love getting my nails done here. Great color selection, clean, professionals. I get the gels and they last a few weeks. I won't go anywhere else. read more

I went and got a spray tan here and their machine is not working properly but they will not acknowledge it! I have received many many spray tans before. This one the spray was not spraying the active ingredient. I told them right after my spray, and they said "it is a clear spray and will activate in 4-6 hours." I went back to the store in 5 hours, and still did not have one tan line at all! I wore underwear and could not see a thing, and I am fair skinned and can easily see tan lines from spray tans. They would not give me my money back and were extremely rude. I then went next door to "At the Beach" and got the perfect spray tan. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS! They were so rude to me and would not give me my money when their product did not work properly. I question their morals and business practices and will try to report them to the better business bureau!! read more

I was born and raised in Boulder and have tried many of the nail salons and spas here in Boulder. When it comes to manicures Polish is the only place I will EVER go! They use all of the highest end nail products and it really makes a difference. When you get gel nails at Polish they last forever and never crack or chip and best part is when they r off your nails r not ruined at all. They use good product for acrylics too, never ever turn yellow or lift at the corners. Their pedicures are good & I love how sanitary their system is. I see them take glass containers out of the sanitizer with all the tools in it and they have many clean towels on hand. They have tanning beds and spray tans there as well! Although I can't comment on those cuz I haven't used them. make sure to call and get an appointment cuz sometimes you may run into a wait but if u have an appointment they take you right away. Just got my bridal nails and toes done here for my upcoming wedding and couldn't be happier. read more

Polish Nails & Spa - OPI gel nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

Kelly did an excellent job on my nails. It was my first time at the salon and I will go back again. The only negative thing I can say it that it was quite expensive. I had a re-base with shellac color and polish change (shellac on my toes) it was $80 without the added tip. read more

I've been going to Polish for a few years now, and it is the best place I've ever gotten a shellac manicure. They know all of their regular customers (and they have quite a few regulars -- always a good sign), and it is very much a friendly, family-owned business. My manicures from Polish are better quality and last longer than any other salon I've been to, period. I'm a customer for life! read more

I've been going to Kelly at Polish for years now. Her mastery of silk nails is truly a work of perfection. Also fast and well priced. Both the manicures and pedicures were also great. Because Kelly speaks english, you will get everything you want with a professional manner. read more

Don't do it!! This place does not clean their tools-- and is very unpredictable with services. I spoke to a woman who worked there after I asked how I could have gotten a toe fungus, after numerous pedicures. She told me that they only clean tools and the spas for pedicures at the beginning and end of the day. She did not agree with the practice but said that the owners were very 'thrifty'. read more

Friendly, professional and best mani and pedis ever. Kelly is great. I'm always so pleased with her work and I get tons of compliments. I highly recommend. read more

I went there for a mist tan before leaving for Mexico, and it was absolutely perfect. I have very white skin, and the mist gave me a soft glow of color. I will definitely go back again before my next vacation! read more

I wish I could say I had a great experience, but the lady who worked on my nails who very rough with me. While working on my toes, my foot was burnt with hot water and my big toe was stabbed. While working on the gel manicure, she was constantly pulling on my arm and rushing through, it wasn't even busy so I wish she would have taken her time. My fingers were hurting by the time she was done, this should have been a relaxing experience, but surly I was disappointed. Friends who went with me had very gentle workers and they took their time! I was done way before any of my friends were! I am not happy with the experience I had. read more

This place was horrible. No prices listed anywhere and after I selected the basic pedicure they tried to tell me they charged 5$ extra to scrub your heels. Come on. The I got my brows waxed and has to wait 20 minutes while the lady stalled to keep me from leaving. Ridiculous service and up selling. read more

If you're even a second late they'll give your appointment away, so don't make that mistake

i wish i could give them 0 star.this is the worst ped i ever experience ,the nail tech did my ped within 20 minutes while i chose the deluxe ped wth, the polish chip off the next day and guess what ?? i forgot my sandals that day so i asked her to give me a plastic flip flop so i can wear it to the car , they're so cheap that they did not give me the flip flop.i have to walk barefoot to the car in cold weather. what type of business are you??would never never never in my life to go back there. read more
