The best manicure and pedicure place in Milwaukee. I've been going there almost a decade , the best service, very attentive, friendly staff. Super clean, with incredible array of excellent quality nail polishes, and application techniques. Snacks and variety of drinks ( coffee, water, soda ) for the clients. Perfect place. I know I will not go anywhere else! read more

Always exceptional, friendly service. My mom and I both enjoy getting the express mani/pedi. The price recently changed from $60 to $70. I like the ambiance; nice massage chairs, everything is very clean and organized, and I like the relaxing music in the background. My mom and I both love coming here! read more

I did a mani with standard polish. Instead of a fan to dry, they use black light with a fan. Well this light caused my polish to curl (metallic) and when I went back in to get it fixed, owner acted as if I did something wrong. She then instructed me to sit and wait, with no indication of how long. After ten minutes I gave up and left. My tech was awesome, but I don't appreciate being left with no eta. 2 hours at the salon for standard polish is absurd read more

I happened to pass by Qticles with my BF and mentioned that I didn't know there was a salon there. He told me he knew people who really liked it. After chastising him for withholding valuable information, I made an appointment for a desperately overdue deluxe pedi and a mani. The space is nice and open, airy and white which lends a clean feeling overall. The whimsical flower lights make it feel fun and less clinical. The massage chair was comfy and worked well. I failed to request gel for my mani but luckily for me, Anna, my technician, agreed to take the extra time for it. I rarely get a deluxe pedi, but I have been extremely lax this summer and I needed the extra pampering. Anna delivered. She was excellent and had just the right touch. She was a fun person to talk with and we had a great conversation about local restaurants. While my feel rested in paraffin, she shaped my nails with smart multitasking. My manicure was excellent as well and efficient. I think I've found my new go-to nail salon. No negative notes. read more

I've been going to Qticles Nail Salon for a couple years now and I love that I can just txt them when I need to make an appt and they're always very responsive. I've primarily gotten my services with Kayla and she's phenomenal! The attention to detail from her is a rarity now a days! The snacks are an added touch that is much appreciate as I sometimes come during my lunch and don't get to grab something to eat before heading back to work! read more

I love Qticles salon. It's so warm and inviting! All the nail techs are highly professional and they do an amazing job! I always leave with beautiful nails and feeling rejuvenated Chaney, Kwan and Susie run a beautiful business and I'm so lucky to have it minutes away from my house. Thanks Qticles! read more

I have been going to this salon for years. It's the best on the east side! It's so pleasant and clean. The services are excellent and the workers are professional, friendly and skilled. Susie, the receptionist/ manager is always pleasant, responsive and making sure everything runs smoothly. I'd highly recommend Qticles for anyone looking for a great manicure or pedicure in a spa like atmosphere! read more

Very professional and kind staff! The gentleman who runs their front desk is SO kind. He is the prime example of exceptional customer service, very sincere and welcoming. Very simple but effective safety measures. All customers wash their hands prior to their service and choosing a nail color. Simple and honestly...this should be a practice everywhere. Clean hands make a big difference! My nail tech was very thorough and gentle with my ticklish feet The express pedicure includes a fantastic exfoliating foot and calf massage...so relaxing! Thank you! read more

I would have loved to experienced this place but it wasn't an option! I was in town visiting for a funeral and had a dire need to get my nails done. I walked in the door and immediately the woman at the counter began shaking her head at me. I was a little put off by her frowned expression and I could see the black and white sign on the desk that says, "We reserve the right to refuse service". But I pressed on assuming that meant if someone were unkept or unruly; but not so. I walked up and asked for s manicure appointment at around 9/10AM and the woman said, "we don't have any appointments available, we're fully booked today". I did review their website before coming in and did not see ANY MENTION of it being an appointment only establishment. I also looked around to see that aside from the Asian women workers, there were no women of color receiving services, which leads me to believe that this establishment does not service black women. I was not unkept nor unclean so aside from being a black woman seeking services I can't imagine why this place refused my patronage. It guess the good news is that because this place turned me away I found a better nail salon not far away (Polished Nail Salon). This is my warning to black and brown women looking to spend your green dollars for nail services, save yourself the disrespect of coming to this place and seek out services elsewhere! read more

I love going here for pedicures. It's actually a place that I feel like I get my monies worth for the pedicure I'm paying for. Every one is super nice too. I've gotten shellac done on my nails too and they look amazing every time I've gotten it. I'll continue to go back to this salon. read more

This place always does a great job on my nails. The owner is always so nice and greets you amazingly! they provide snacks and drinks for you and they people are always so welcoming! the place is so clean and wonderful! I couldn't recommend the place more. read more

I went to Q-ticles for the very first time today for a spa pedicure. I was slightly hesitant (as a bad pedi from an establishment that shall remained unnamed) caused major infection and resulted in surgical procedures.... Q-ticles assured me all tools are sterilized and files/sponges/etc are tossed after each use. Lots of amazing colors to chose from here for manis and pedis. It is always so difficult for me to decide on a color. My nail technician was Anna. She was so friendly and kind. She did such a great job I may have fallen asleep for a few minutes! My toes look so nice they look fake. Seriously. And my bothersome calluses are almost not existent. Also, the chairs are amazing at this salon. I highly recommend and do plan on returning. I highly suggest Miss Anna - she is wonderful! read more

I wanted to update my rating after having gone back a few times, and this past month reminded me of why I like going to Qticles so much. Their friendly atmosphere, attention to detail, and artistry. I had an acrylic set put on and they look PHENOMENAL. I used to have my acrylics done by a salon that dealt mainly with acrylic and my nails never looked as Instagram-ready as these do. Emily took so much care filing and making sure they were smooth and lump-free, and then again to shape them uniformly. She didn't scrimp on anything and it shows. My local nail salon is tops :) read more

Today was my first visit, and most likely my last. I was greeted by the receptionist and told to pick my polish. She was polite, but that's where it ended. The young lady that did my pedicure was less than personable. I noticed other guests being offered water or tea, I wasn't. The only conversation we had was her asking if I was just getting a regular pedicure or what. The pedicure itself was sub par, I was not impressed. The salon itself is beautiful, but first impressions mean a lot. I was less than happy. Update: 3 days post pedicure. The owner offered me 50% off my next service because of the less than favorable experience. Now, that is an awesome gesture. Unfortunately, my updated review is more disappointing. Day three and it looks terrible. You can really see how uneven my nails were cut/filed. The polish job looks bad too. You can see where she missed and didn't clean up the cuticle very well. I shouldn't be seeing dry skin around that area after only 3 days! 2 stars instead of 3. read more

I got a full set with nail art and everything about this manicure was amazing. The establishment is very clean and everyone was friendly and helpful. My nail technician (I'm sorry I didn't catch her name) was so great! Her attention to detail in shaping the acrylic tips and the care she took when painting the nail art was so impressive. If you're looking for a place to get a manicure, you need to schedule an appointment here! read more

i have never loved my nails more! i went to get a gel manicure and showed the nail tech a design i wanted. the first time around it honestly turned out very poorly to the point where i contacted them about it and showed them pictures of the original manicure. they were absolutely amazing about it and got me in for an appointment later that day, and happy (my personal favorite tech there) redid my nails with the design i wanted and they look amazing! regardless of what tech you have you'll definitely be getting a quality manicure, but i don't always recommend getting designs here read more

This salon did a horrible job on my sister's nails when she was in from Boston. I had never been there, but suggested it because it was close. Her nail cracked within a day. She went back the next day and they were apologetic and fixed it. It CRACKED AGAIN! Now that she is home, several others are cracking only three days later! read more

I just wanted to say Bravo to Q-ticles. Not only did I get an excellent mani and pedicure this place followed COVID-19 procedures to the tee! They did a wonderful job of making me feel safe . It was so relaxing. The technician took her time . No rushing and my nail and toes were beautiful! This nail spa will be my go to from now on ! By the way the chairs are wonderful:) read more

I went here today for a pedicure and highly recommend! Being pregnant, I really wanted a pedicure, but was also incredibly nervous about the risks involved and precautions they had in place with the pandemic. Everyone was incredibly kind and exceeded my expectations with the Covid precautions. I felt extremely safe and will definitely return sometime soon! read more

I am a firm believer in supporting our local small businesses. One of which is Qticles on 2127 E. Capitol Dr. across the street from Atwater School in Shorewood.Quan and his staff are impeccable in following the safety protocol to the letter. Their professionalism is surpassing all nail salons I have ever been to. His staff is topnotch, very knowledgeable about the services, and very flexible to accommodate your schedule. My nails are absolutely beautiful and healthy and I continue to receive compliments. Talk to Quan and I guarantee you will not be disappointed. Qticles at 332-9999. read more

This is my new regular spot...Nice decor, attention to detail, pristine cleanliness, and good quality manicures. I always get compliments on my nails. The owners are friendly, personable, and charming. I have gotten mani/pedis at countless nail shops over the years and can attest that the contrast is striking! Quan is hands down the best nail tech I have ever had. He is so accommodating no matter what new manicure idea I dream up. If you like an individual experience, they will know your name after the first time you go there and always act happy to see you. Highly recommended. read more

This is a nice place. The customers are friendly and everyone in the salon works hard and are diligent with their work. It has a great neighborhood feel. Being a little bit on the shy side this place makes me feel at ease.. I'm never really sure when I pick out colors and the tech made some suggestions for me that worked out even better. I appreciated her help. They deserve like 80 stars. Great quality. Great place. Great people! read more

I found Q-ticles on Yelp and called to inquire about an appointment. It was Monday, so their voicemail message explained that they were closed. I planned to call first thing Tuesday morning, but the owner, Quan, beat me to the punch! He phoned even though I didn't leave a voicemail just to make sure I was taken care of. Blown away by the amazing customer service, I made an appointment, and was not surprised when I received an incredible manicure. The salon is decorated beautifully and I was made to feel right at home. They also have a great selection of polish! I can't wait to get another manicure! read more

Qticles Nail Salon - A week later! - Nail Salons Near Me - Shorewood, Wisconsin

I've been visiting Q-ticles just about every other week for manicures and/or pedicures, and I've always left extremely happy with my experience there. The atmosphere is extremely relaxing; when I get my nails done, I want a quiet, calm environment, and that's exactly what Q-ticles offers. The last time I was in, all of the pedicure stations were full, and it was STILL quiet in there! What's really cool about this place is that the pedicure chairs go really far back so you can truly relax while being pampered. My nail techs here have always been extremely professional and friendly - I'm truly impressed by this place! I plan on returning for more services in the future, since the prices are also very reasonable. Glad to have you in the neighborhood! read more

So far, this is my favorite overall nail place in Milwaukee! I used to go to Glow, but they recently have kind of gone downhill. I moved to Shorewood and heard good things about the pedicures. Sure enough, my fiance at the time made us both appointments the week of our wedding just to get away and relax and oh, we did. The place was really quiet and nice and had a great atmosphere. Clean and sterile but modern and chic and still warm. The music is Muzak I think but its actually nice Muzak. Like with guitar arrangements and not just weird synthesizers. I actually enjoyed it. Here is the BEST parts: 1. The no chip manicure is truely a no chip. Me and my mom have been there several times for no chips and they have lasted the entire 2 weeks that they claim they will. (not true at some other nail places) 2. The pedicure chairs are the best in town. They go ALL THE WAY BACK! During the massage part of pedicure (you are already getting a great chair massage) they tell you to put the chair all the way back and your feet are in the air and you get your leg and foot massage like that! I almost feel asleep. 3. Attentive and take their time. I have never felt rushed or like they were not taking the time to do a good job. In fact, I once ruined my nails because I was the one in a hurry and rushed the drying process. The guy was so nice and fixed it and tried to speed my drying with a spray and a light and anything he could do to help me. I really recommend them highly! read more

Always a relaxing, enjoyable experience at Q-ticles. My favorite "me" time. The salon is stylish and immaculate. I love that they are continually making changes for the comfort of their customers. The staff is very professional and the service is amazing. My shellac French Manicure lasts easily for a month. I highly recommend this salon. read more

I will continue to go to this salon! All the technicians there are lovely and the owners do a great job of connecting with their clients. Bit pricey, but that's what you get for going to any good place in Shorewood! About $70 for a full set. I will continue to recommend this place to my friends and family! read more

I came in 2 minutes after this place opened & was basically refused service because I didn't have an appointment. Their website or any other advertising do not indicate that services are by appointment only. I wasn't even offered a later time to come in for an apointment. I am afro centric & probably don't look to be a part if the Shorewood community. It's no wonder why the business has a big sign at the desk indicating "We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone". I am quite used to paying in excess of $100 for a shellac mani & pedi. I'll take business elsewhere. read more

This place is AMAZING! I was in WI for business and my nails were in dire need of a manicure. I called Q-ticles and they gave me a 6 pm appointment. Anna was wonderful and gave me the best treatment. She took time to talk with me, suggest colors and took her time doing my gel manicure. The shop closes at 7:30 but Anna didn't rush to get finished. I will absolutely come here again the next time I am in Milwaukee and in need of nail services. The salon is beautiful, clean and tranquil! Thank you Anna for the wonderful job you did! read more

I think the nail technicians are great. Nice work and nice people. This is not my first time there, but it has been a long while since last time. I realize its Covid, but I think my situation could have been handled more professionally. Are texts okay/professional when communicating with customers? I had issues with scheduling. I made a phone call for mani/pedi, and left a voice mail. I got a text back regarding available time. After some back and forth texting, it was confirmed by text. When I arrived I was told that I would only be able to get the pedicure. There was no apology from scheduler. Technicians, two of them that were there, apologized. I made an appt for the manicure the next day, 11:45. At around 10:15, I received a text that I could come at 11:15. I said okay. I then received another text that the appt was available at 11, but 11:15 would still be okay if I wanted that. I confirmed 11:15. When I arrived, I was told I would have to wait 10 minutes because they were behind. Meantime I paid cash for manicure. When I left, I gave cash tip to technician and left. The scheduler/ receptionist came after me and yelled my name when I was 1/2 block away and asked me if I had payed! I am retired and live nearby, thus I have flexibility. If I was working or had other commitments, I might decide not to return to the salon again. Based on these events, perhaps texting is not the most professional with salon customers. Post note - The owner called me to apologize, right after seeing this. I appreciate the call. There were extenuating circumstances and he is working to assure this does not happen again. Based on this follow up, I will go back to this salon for their quality service and hopefully the scheduling will go smoother in the future. read more

Had my first pedi here today, and I think it was the most relaxing I've ever had. The lady who did my pedi really took her time with the filing and "maintenance". She used the most incredible lemongrass scrub that smelled fresh and invigorating. When it was time for the foot/calf massage, the massage chairs fully reclined, putting me in the most comfortable position. All the while, relaxing and beautiful spa music played through the speakers. I never wanted to leave. And my toes look great! read more

I was in town for a few days and decided to get a manicure and pedicure. I called in the morning to request two appointments for my friend and I for a pedicure and manicure, they were able to get us both in at 3:30 pm. I requested SPA Pedicure and Manicure for both of us. We were greeted upon walking in and I was pleasantly surprised at how nice this place was! Excellent selection of OPI nail polish and awesome atmosphere. We were taken back to the pedicure "thrown" and the receptionist/owner showed how to work the massaging chair *note these were very weak* and then left me to soak for 30 minutes while my friend had her service started right away. Long story short, I was "upgraded" to a "spa" pedicure for the inconvenience which was a nice gesture, but I requested that service to begin with. Polish looks nice, I have had better pedicures (more foot scrubbing and massaging) but again it was relaxing. Manicure: They appraently forgot that I wanted the spa one and at this point the girls were in a hurry to get out for the night (they close early on Mondays). My nails look nice and the price was fine at 15.00, but be advised that this is a very basic manicure and on day two I have chips. Pros: Relaxing and friendly Cons: Price/quality of service read more

Got a French there with a higher level of 7 day stronger option or something like that. Started cracking off the next day. I have never went back since. I heard my friend who recommended me there say she always got the expensive Shellack or something that sounds like it, and she was always happy with it. But frankly I can do my own nails and don't want to spend 30-50 dollars for that here. If I spend that much money, I have real high expectations. So maybe it's not my thing. read more

BEWARE!!!! Make sure you are clear are pricing before getting a service!!! Went for a spa pedicure with shellac nail polish. Confirmed with receptionist first about $40 for spa pedicure & said wanted shellac polish. Person took me to look at shellac colors never mentioning a different price. Went to pedi chair & even confirmed price being $40 for pedicure (I had an issue with place in July about pricing so I thought this time I would make sure I was clear on pricing!) She said yes! Never mentioned that shellac was a different price! Finished the spa pedicure thinking it was $40 but found out it was $70!!!! $30 for shellac polish which doesn't require anything different but applying it like regular polish! $30 for polish!!! Are you kidding me!!! No where would you be charged $30 for 2 coats of shellac polish. I did complain that I confirmed twice the price & both people confirmed the $40 with no mention of shellac being more money! Shady business!!!! Shady people!!!! Find another place!!! This pedicure was done in 25 minutes & not worth $70!!!!! BEWARE!!!!! read more

I created a yelp account just so I could rave about how wonderful this place is. Amazing customer service, and incredible attention to detail. Came in with gross, calloused runner's feet and left with unbelievably soft feet and beautiful, purple-grey toes. Ended up getting a facial, as well. The esthetician was incredibly thorough and helpful. She recommended great products for my skin. Will definitely be returning. read more
