Waldorf yall did it to me again! This was posted on Monday, April 27, 2026 at around noon…read more I just paid $59 plus a lil tip (because I'm not a monster) for the most basic azz, botched pedicure of my life! Her name was Brenda and she's been working at the shop for about a year and she also works at Longhorn in the area. She was nice and all yall but she basically tickled my feet and gave me one of the worse paint job I've ever experienced. I have a question WALDORF, how do you all give this place almost 4 stars for work like this?! I don't like to post my feet unless I'm getting paid but I had to make an exception because what? I went in with the intent to get a pedicure and gel nail but when I'm somewhere new, I start with seeing how they do on my pedicure first. This was a Spanish speaking shop across from a Spanish Market and next door to a liquor store which is neither here nor there but for informational purposes only. Listen, it was quiet (went on a Monday around 11:30am) and the ladies seemed super sweet but yall.... I'm sure she has no idea how displeased but b/c I'd rather receive mediocre service than gripe and complain I just grinned and bared it. I'm no Karen okay! But yall It's only remotely not that bad only because it's gel. I mean how much can you mess that up, right! But yall, it was way too costly for how sloppy the work and just not worth it. I did the basic gel pedicure with paraffin. Something I don't do often. I selected a light or Barbie pink color but I changed it because she was having so much trouble finding my color choice. Here is all she did wrong: 1. No proper intro: hello, my name is Brenda, thank you for coming in today. Please pick your color and take a seat and I'll be right with you. 2. Too light of a touch. I actually felt like she was being funny or just really scared. 3. No gentle suggestive selling. She actually started my service w/o know my color choice and stating her English is not too good. Okay but come on! Make that money girl and don't just over charge for subpar service PLEASE!! 4. The water was very shallow and luke warm. She simply handed me a price list and did not clarify my desire of service. 5. The paint was sloppy and all on my cuticles and top of toe. I have fat, wide feet with a short, very square nail bed. So I don't require a ton of polish. I like sharp line and thin even coats. I am so sick of this! I gotta go all the way to VA for professional nail service because Waldorf girlies just can't get it right. Waldorf yall full of subpar services and I'm over it!! I'm sorry to the owner for this harsh review but I gotta be real. Consistency is key the people will pay more for that. My money is too hard earned for this foolishness. The nails are really just barely okay and that not okay. I could have saved my $65 and did it myself. ‍Never again!‍

My fave husband & wife nail team have moved on so I had to try another tech. I shared my needs & the things I'm particular about and they assigned me a tech. I opted for the deluxe pedi since my tired legs & feet could use a little more massaging & heat. It comes with callus treatment if you need it, sugar scrub, mask, & paraffin wax. My tech delivered the requested services and I was pleased. The new nail salon is larger than the old and attractive with its open layout. Check them out. Some of Escape's services are a little more expensive than local competitors but the experience makes it worth the money.

I'm honestly so irritated. I came in and was told a pedicure was $40. Once I got in the chair, the…read moretech started pushing me to upgrade to the $50 pedicure, so I agreed. Cool, whatever. Tell me why I get to the register and my total is suddenly $80?! No explanation, no breakdown--just sitting there looking clueless like that makes it okay. And to make it worse, the quality was terrible. All I asked for was plain white toes... HOW do you mess that up? Uneven, sloppy, just rushed and careless. Definitely will not be coming back. The lemonade was nasty too--only decent thing was the fruit was fresh. Save your money and go somewhere that respects your time, your wallet, and actually does a good job.

Coco Bay Nail Bar by Vinton - Waldorf, MD I really wanted to…read morehave a good experience here, but unfortunately my visit was frustrating from start to finish. The technician was polite, but she immediately began cutting my natural nails without asking if I wanted them shortened. I had to stop her. Clients should always be consulted before altering their natural nails. During my service, the pedicure tub was left running and overflowed onto the floor. An older gentleman who had just walked in as a customer offered to help clean it up while I was sitting there soaking. That was kind of him, but it should not have happened in a professional setting. It became clear that only one technician was trying to service me and two other clients simultaneously. I was there for three hours, no joke. Eventually, her sister was called in to assist. When she arrived, she questioned the type of product on my nails and debated with me about whether it was dip powder. She also began criticizing my regular nail tech and repeatedly tried to upsell me on overlays after I explained that I naturally have thin nails. The pedicure portion felt rushed and heavy-handed toward the end. To make matters worse, when I was ready to pay, I was told they only accept Zelle or cash. There was no visible notice of this beforehand. I do not carry cash and was directed to an ATM, which charged a fee. After spending three hours there, that was extremely frustrating. Despite the overall experience, I was still asked if I wanted to add eyebrow services. I came in simply needing my nails and toes done. Instead of leaving relaxed, I left feeling stressed and inconvenienced. Unfortunately, I will not be returning.

Yeah, it's a no for me on this spot. I was grateful to be able to make a last-minute appointment on…read morea Friday evening, but when I arrive, the place was full of chaos because they had multiple other businesses operating out of their same salon. Additionally, everything felt very rushed, and they didn't do a good job. In total, I paid $160 for a kids "pedicure" with regular polish, a gel pedicure with callus removal for me, and a fill with gel and a V French. For what I paid, I expected the same quality that I typically get from my girl down the street. That is not what I got. Instead, I got rushed through the process, got my cuticles dug into by that weird drill, they use. And left with gel on my toes that chipped already? And let me be clear, I am writing this review less than 10 hours after leaving the shop. Also, they didn't even help my daughter with her shoes, putting them back on or anything. And before we even walked out, I noticed that her regular polish on her pedicure had already smudged off because they didn't allow them to properly dry and told her it was fine. Also, look at My Nail photos. The V French looks seemingly clean at first, but when you look to the side and at the tips and edges? Not thoroughly painted and sloppy. Also, some of these nails are far thicker than the others. And I truly can't understand how I feel here ended up costing more than a full set with a full blown design at another shop down the road. Again, everything felt super rushed here. They didn't offer drinks. They didn't even ask me what type of pedicure I wanted. This was one of the worst experiences I've had in this area.

Cleanliness and sanitation has always been impeccable, even during covid. V Spa has a menu book that clearly details the services and prices (no handwritten pieces of paper taped on the walls), just ask. During my 1st pedicure, I compared the price of the add-ons I wanted for the standard pedicure to the VIP experience. After doing the math, I inquired and haven't looked back. BUT NOW, the VIP experience has been upgraded and I'm LOVING IT!!! Of course there's a difference in the price, but soo worth it! Treat yourself, trust me!

The staff at this shop is horrible with the exception of maybe one nail tech. This is the second…read morebad experience I've had at this shop but still gave them an opportunity to redeem themselves. And that's exactly where I went wrong. I came here Oct. 19 for a fill in with simple nail art in mind. The black receptionist with the red hair was up front upon arrival. I knew she remembered from my last visit as we'd had a slight spat about who she could recommend in the shop that did good nail art. Y'all why would this lady sit me down with a beginner nail tech that couldn't even do basic lines. Not even 6 days after I get my fill in , my nails need to be filled and my gel polish is chipping. I reach out to speak with the owner about the situation and Ofcourse the red head black girl tells me I cannot speak to the owner. So I drive all the way to the shop for the owner to still have zero courtesy to speak with me or even take the time to look at my nails. In fact they tried to put me out (tried because don't nobody put me out of NOWHERE)

I found this salon by checking Yelp reviews. Although there were few, they were great enough for us to give this place a try. We came on a Monday late afternoon as a walk in. They were able to accommodate us and seat her immediately. It was very clean and decorated beautifully for the Christmas holiday. After assessing her hair, Sulma determined that she needed a deep condition and a trim. Another stylist did my daughter's hair under Sulma's guidance. While waiting, Sulma gave my girl a drink, and me tea and biscuits :) Overall the experience went well and my daughter's hair looks amazing!

I'm just going to get to the point. My nails/hands have never felt so naturally good coming away…read morefrom a nail shop. Usually when I get my nails done, my hands will feel like they've been worked on. I've never had a bad experience but I would always feel like my cuticles have been cut and my nails have been cut. This time, I felt like I had my hands washed and moisturized only but with the appearance of a full detailed manicure. My feet were done first and after getting the heat turned down a bit, that was so relaxing. I used to get this done every 6 weeks but I've been going months w/o and I don't know if it's because of the longer gap between or me getting older but my foot tickled a bit and it caught me off guard because I've never had that sensation before. She acted as if it were normal but I guess to her it was. She jokingly asked if I wanted polish on my feet as she laughed and although I knew she was joking because she was laughing but she got serious and asked if I wanted clear. Now I don't know if polish is supposed to do something to protect your nails but I've never had it before and I'm not going to start now. I do wish nail places catered more to men. Not catered more to us but had some basic basic services. I think a basic manicure and pedicure (I refuse to call it man...ped...) I will likely be back here but I also go to the Fort Washington one because it's more in my travels but this one has done the best job of all the places I've been...ever.
