The ladies that worked on me and my mom were pleasant and lovely. They made sure we were taken care of and that we didn't put our shoes on too quickly after getting pedicures. The website wouldn't let us book one appointment for two people and placed us at different times, but they made sure to call ahead of our appointment day to get us aligned. Like with any salon, I would recommend getting there ahead of time to select your polish color. My mom and I got there 5 minutes before our appointment and we were still in the middle of choosing a color when we were told almost 4 times that our chairs were ready. I believe we still had a minute or two before our appointment time so next time I'd appreciate it if we weren't rushed to our seats when choosing a color. Other than that, the prices and experience were good. read more

Relaxing, clean, and high quality. Polished never disappoints. All the technicians are super sweet and talented and always do an amazing job. Both their manicures and pedicures are so relaxing and good quality, great price and location, the parking lot can get full but that never stopped me! read more

I have never had a bad experience in the decade or so I've been getting mani pedi's here. I can't speak for anything other than a polish or shellac as are the only type service I have booked. I really come here for the calf, foot, arm & hand massages Anna provides. The polish is just an added bonus! read more

We had a wonderful experience at Polished for my friend's bachelorette/wedding prep! The space inside was clean and calm with the right level and kind of music. They were efficient and thorough and even though I was 10min late, they gave me time to pick my color while we started on nails. It was just the oasis that we needed for wedding prep! read more

This place stays busy. Appointment only as they are always packed. You will have a great experience no matter who you get but my personal favorite is Anna. She does an impeccable job on my hands and feet. Her pedicures are my favorite. I appreciate someone who listens and understands your wants and needs. I always prefer my toe nails cut short, and most techs will cut them down but never short enough. But Anna will go as short as I want. Her attention to detail is flawless. She takes her time and does every thing right. Booking online is easy but book ahead as early as possible because as mentioned above, they stay pretty busy. To get the appointments I want with Anna, I typically have to book two weeks ahead. If I look online a few days before, she will never have the time available that I need. The nail salon is clean and everyone here is warm and welcoming. read more

Polished Salon & Spa - Dip polish manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Newcastle, Washington

I know my last review mentioned affordable pedicures. So, I feel compelled to mention the cost of this spot. A menu allows for clear pricing. Do they try to upsell you? Yes. Is it pushy? No. There are different tiers of pedicures here, I opted for the second to highest (I forget the name) because I wanted a longer massage. And of course, a gel pedicure is more. But it lasts longer and is worth it! No waiting time for drying. I don't do pedicures because I can reach my hands and as a teacher, I am washing my hands a million times a day (germs) so a manicure is a waste. This pedicure was outstanding! Hana very nicely steered me away from my initial color choice by taking out the color I originally wanted, a very dark purple, to a lighter lilac. She showed me how dark purple would look by painting a bit onto her nail. It looked more like black, which was not what I wanted. The extra massage was so worth it. Hana was amazing! I never felt rushed, and the foot/leg massage was so relaxing. I nearly fell asleep but due to being ticklish I did not. The attention paid to all those little knots I have in my feet was really appreciated. I adore good foot massage. This nail salon is huge. Loads of massage chairs. When new people come in they put them way across the room so it almost feels like I have the place to myself. The music is also pleasant and not too loud. They also have a large television that was showing cooking shows when I first arrived. Parking right out front is easy. Worth the short drive. And they take walk ins! SYOY!! Self care aficionado continues. read more

Booked with Thuy and then when I got there I was told she was running late then she came and sat across from me and someone else came in and she left me to take care of them. Not ok. I don't know the name of the lady who did my nails. She was sweet and kind but did not speak a lot of English. She did a good job but could not fix a nail so I would have had to have someone else, I believe the owner fix it. It was disappointing .ill try one more time read more

Excellent place to get quality nails done. I have never been disappointed. Katie Tran is absolutely great at what she does. She is quick very professional and does nails with perfection. I do a lot of kitchen work sometimes without gloves so nails have a tendency of chipping. she works around it and gives it a beautiful shape. Best please for getting quality nails done. read more

Can't say enough about this place!! Love working with the ladies here, everyone is always so friendly and so good at what they do! Katie did my nails for my wedding and they still look flawless a week later - normally nails get banged up or don't last, but these are amazing. I'm always amazed at how fast they can get your nails done without making you feel rushed! I've been to places where it can take over 1.5 hours to do dip tips with ombré, but Katie gets them done in an hour or less. The pedicures here are also the best I've ever gotten! Totally pampered and the gel pedicure I got still looks new after 3 weeks! Pictured: week old dip tips ombré French read more

Polished Salon & Spa - Ombré French dip with tips - Nail Salons Near Me - Newcastle, Washington

I have been coming to this salon for many years. I wanted to treat myself to a shellac manicure and a pedicure for a vacation. Instead of filing my nails to a shape I wanted, the manicurist cut them and in doing so nipped my skin not once but 3 times! It was a very uncomfortable manicure, especially since I had to have it done while getting my pedicure. The pedicure was fine except the polish didn't even last for the week I was on vacation. My shellac manicure (which is supposed to last 2 weeks) already started popping off before the second week was over. I will have to find a new place to go to from now on. read more

I'm not someone who gets my nails done all the time, but anytime I do I go to Polished. Ive been coming here off and on for awhile. No matter who I get doing my mani/pedi they always do a great job and are consistent in cleanliness, the look of my nails and the health. Today I got tips for the first time in years with dip powder and they are my favorite nails I've had. read more

Thuy is the best! If you're able to schedule with her I highly recommend it, she's super kind and helped with any adjustments I asked for. She's patient and really provides the best quality! The salon is clean and very spacious. I'll be coming back! read more

Thuy did an amazing job. I found this place on a whim and happy to say, this is my new spot! Just booked my next appt. My shellac has lasted a lot longer than I expected. read more

Trying to find my go-to nail place since I moved out of Seattle. Found this place and the first thing I noticed that it was a super clean facility and the ladies there are nice! The lady doing my nails did a good job making sure the paint job was nice and that I didn't mess them up subconsciously twinkling my toes in the seat lol. She was quick, but it didn't feel rushed at all. The only thing I wished is that she filed this one callous a little longer than 1.5 seconds. Other than that, super happy and will be going back for my future nail appointments! read more

The atmosphere is lovely. I was very excited for my mani/pedi experience at a new place. I arrived, picked colors and was asked to sit in the massage chair. I sat, and discovered the massage part of the chair didn't work. No one tried to help, so I let it go. The manicure took 15 min. I was a bit shocked that it was so short. Then the employee left for 5 minutes and came back and did my pedicure. That took 25 minutes, so a bit more realistic. I wanted purple for my toes, and so I clarified the color I chose was purple (some colors look different with a few coats on- and it did look a bit pink. She clarified "yes, purple." She did my toes and it was totally pink. Then 5 minutes later she came and moved all my things and pushed the arm of the chair up for me. I took that as a hint and I got up. Another employee said, "no, let them dry." I was so very confused. I went to sit in the couch because I had shoes and socks and needed to let my polish dry. When I went to pay, I asked how long a regular manicure should be. She said 30 min. I mentioned mine was only 15 min. She charged me for the full price and didn't apologize. I will NOT be returning. read more

Pros: Clean, nice atmosphere, most do a great job, lots of color choices, professional. Cons: Booking for the the more popular employees can be lengthy, walk-ins aren't usually possible, prices have increased significantly, and the new cash tip requirement is just ick considering the cost. read more

I went to a different nail salon the horribly messed up my nails and came here to fix them after they were lifting. Mei/my (don't know how to spell her name) fixed my nails for me for cheap and did an awesome job ! Great spot with knowledgeable and clean nail techs read more

Whole family came here, they clearly were making fun of the men for being good sports and deciding to get matching colors with the ladies. Usually it's pretty iffy, but they weren't very secretive about it pointing and all that. If you're gonna talk down on clients, maybe the group paying a few hundred isn't the best bet. My ma wanted to do something special for us all, and the next time we get manis/pedis it'll be somewhere else. The fumes were ROUGH in there too -- maybe invest in some fans read more

Went in for the first time and was not disappointed. Very professional and friendly environment. Christine did a splendid job w my short nails and a hard color choice. I just moved to the area! Will be back :) read more

I came here because of the high ratings and don't get me wrong.... my nails came out beautiful, I thought this would be my new go to place, but it has not even been a week and 2 nails have fallen off already. I've gotten my nails done many times at many different places and have never experienced losing two nails within a week. I'm disappointed. read more

This is actually my first time ever at a nails salon. I called during lunch to make an appointment dame day, they had a spot in the afternoon (perfect).

I will definitely be back! read more

NAILED IT Happy Birthday to me Polished Salon & Spa in Newcastle owned by the personable Christina is a must try. It's no surprise that it's a favorite of my wife daughter and several friends that we have sent there. Polished is that good but make an appointment as it's always busy...a good sign. One of my presents was a well deserved gift certificate so it was my turn to feel the magic that I've heard so much about. Folks I just had the most amazing pedicure! This old guy now has brand new feet for the holidays...cudos. The very good and patient nail artist even made my one prehistoric great toe nail look the best ever albeit it took a baby chainsaw and jack hammer. The massaging chair soft music soaking pedicure buffing lotion and foot rub make my feet pretty and soft like a baby's... Enough about me. Polished is a warm bright lively inviting comfortable salon with a skilled friendly staff and full of smiling clients. A very good sign. Christmas carols playing softly in the background and watching Fixer Upper (crazy good) on tv just added to the experience and my enjoyment. Gals and guys get to Polished and treat yourself even if you're not Newcastlelians. It's worth the trip...promise. Happy Holidays, Ricardo y Julia read more

I've been here a few times now since moving to the area and wow I have nothing but amazing things to say about this place! Every shellac, manicure and pedicure I've gotten has been perfection. They have so many colors to choose from. Also aside from that the nail salon is clean and has a great energy to it. everyone who works there is amazing! read more

I went here for the first time and they did not disappoint! Someone else recommended I schedule an appointment and I'm glad I did as they were busy when I got there. They got me in right on schedule and did a great job with both my manicure and pedicure. They paid attention to the little details to make sure each mail was just right. I'm looking forward to going back again! read more

English speaking manager, a Clean place, clean bathroom, convenient location. I like that this place has no odor, unlike a lot of nail salon. They are super fast and they did a nIce job. I had the shellac treatment, it was super quick. They also offered hot tea. Great location to grab a bite after. Would definitely return. If you have appointment made sure you show up in time, they seems like a busy place. read more

I'd be lying if I said it was my idea, initially, to go for a pedicure. But I did, and it was not a mistake in any way! They have some sort of magical fire walker gel that is guaranteed to take away tiredness. I would say my tiredness was taken away! They also have some sort of walnut scrub. Really, they do good work. Very good work. My feet were very pleased and in no means tired afterwards. Though I am still very intrigued by what their icedancer gel was. Yes, they might get five stars entirely for their nomenclature alone. read more

Today was my first time at polished and Anna did a fantastic job on my French manicure and deluxe pedicure. She even fixed it for me for free after an hour when my toe color was messed up in the mall. read more

Very good experience! Will go back! My daughter loved it too! She was treated well like an adult

This salon came recommended by a friend, definitely didn't disappoint. First Experince was a full set acrylic, I showed Kristina a photo of the nails I wanted and she did a perfect job! Kristina was so gentle and paid attention to detail. We mixed 2 nail colors to get the color I wanted... a week later I came in with a broken nail which was my fault ... she was able to repair it and even helped me remember what 2 colors we mixed so the repaired nail would match the rest. I treated myself to a pedi while I was fixing my nail :) I will definitely be back for a fill and looking forward to trying out some chrome colors! read more

I have been to Polished many times and every time it has been 5 stars. I can't say enough good things about them. I went again recently and wasn't sure how COVID would affect their level of service but nothing has changed. They are exceptional and use very thorough preventative COVID measures that take nothing away from the relaxing experience. read more

It's 2.5 stars for me. I've been disappointed the last few times I've been in here. The last two times I got my pedi done here it chipped within a few days. The most recent time I went in, literally half the paint on one of my nails chipped off within two days of getting my pedi done. I'm not sure if it's the nail polish that sucks, but I was very disappointed especially since I was away on vacation with a chipped pedi. I used their China Glaze brand both times because they have the bright neon colors that I love. Everything else about my experience was great and normal since this is my go to nail salon. However, I did notice that their prices went up. I was charged $25 dollars for a regular spa pedi. Normally it's $20 and if I'm going to be paying a higher price for chipped nail polished I rather go somewhere else for cheaper and a longer lasting pedi. read more

Polished Salon & Spa - Summertime nails!! - Nail Salons Near Me - Newcastle, Washington

I came upon this place because the place I originally wanted was closed. The staff were nice and friendly for the most part. I had gotten full set with pedicure and waxing but wanted tinting as well. When asking for tinting one employee told me that my skin was too dark and tinting isn't made for black people in so many words. I was very disappointed and surprised since I've never heard that from anyone anywhere before. That will be my first and last time going there. Nails could have also been done better read more

Polished Salon & Spa - Nails weren't close to the nail bed and looked like they still needed a fill when finished - Nail Salons Near Me - Newcastle, Washington

I love this place, but I found it very strange that I was charged $ today to fix two chipped polish nails (not Acrylic nails, and less than a week from the original painting). I've been loyally visiting twice a month since this summer and tip well (yes, I even tipped after being charged to fix two nails.) I've also seen others not charged. I can handle paying if it's standardized and clearly stated..but I'm less likely to support a business who wants to nickel and dime quality customers when they feel like it. ‍ read more

I've been here twice to get a shellac manicure. The the first time I saw Kristina and most recently I saw My and I was more than satisfied both times! I've gotten shellac manicures all over the bellevue/tukwila area but this is the place you want to come if you want to get more for your money. At $25 for a shellac manicure, they are extremely precise and careful about cleaning the cuticle area, shaping the nail, and putting on the polish. I've never seen a salon pay more attention to detail than the ladies here! They make sure to paint into the corners of your nail which is a spot a lot of other salons don't pay attention to and they even make sure to coat the tips of your nails to prevent chipping! This is definitely the best nail salon around. read more
