I had such a wonderful experience at Smiley Nails in Ahwatukee. The entire staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. A huge shout out to Steven, who did an amazing job on my nails. I chose a color and let him freestyle the deaign, and I was absolutely amazed with what he came up with. I love the shape and design! They have definitely gained a new loyal client. read more

FRAUD! BEWARE! I got a deluxe pedicure with gel polish and a flower design. According to the price menu that should be 73 dollars (50 for deluxe pedicure, 15 for gel polish, and 8 dollars for the design). I tipped 20% which would make the total 87.60......they charged my card 92 dollars. Watch your receipts if you go here! Picture of the design attached below for anyone thinking I got something elaborate for design. read more

Wow, they're absolutely stunning! They're taking their time. Even when they set the timer for the massage, they still go above and beyond. My friends and me absolutely love it. read more

Price is expensive compared to other places and the quality is poor. Staff was super friendly. I was charged $70 for a full set with French tip and 4/10 nails are crooked and one is already lifting after 4 days. The nails are bulky and not worth the $70 ($81 with tip) I spent on them and is so frustrating read more

Friendly staff but terrible work. I got my eyebrows waxed and they were extremely uneven. I got a pedicure as well and it was not up to standard. The polish was supposed to be be french tip and it turned out looking like something I could have done myself. I even tried to tell the lady who was doing the pedicure how I wanted it and each time she tries to fix something it came out worse. This establishment was not worth my time or money. read more

Great family & service. So gracious and the kind of family shop that is consistent, local, & genuine. I've been to plenty of fancy expensive spots and sometimes they too pretentious. This is not that. It's a chill, nice, neighborhood business. I appreciate the environment. Basic mani pedi is $50-55. And hubby got to watch his game I'm the tube. read more

The ladies are fabulous and fabulously talented. They have been able to recreate any idea I bring in and have been so easy to schedule with! Kim and Aimee together well and if one can't do it, the other one can! Stop by! You won't be disappointed! read more

The people working in this shop always greet us with a smile and are very welcoming and nice. The nail techs always offer beverages, including wine. They take their time and do not rush you out of the chair. My foot and calf massage felt so great that I set my phone down so I could fully enjoy it. read more

I definitely did not like how my nails were done here. I got a pedicure and the nail polish was all messy and it was not even the shape that I wanted my nails. Another nail lady came over and re-did my nails and reshaped them. Then the same woman named Linda painted my nails again, and they still didn't look good. Don't come here for a pedicure. read more

HORRIBLE SEVICE KYM with the short hair painted my nails on the cuticles and cut me as well. I had to ask for someone else to do my nails. I'm so UNHAPPY especially I'm a nail tech for 14yrs. I came in for a fill and she took all my nails and then I had to do a fill set which were HORRIBLE. I didn't have a pedicure but charged me 30.00 for just a polish change. PLACE is VERY DIRTY not sanitary at all. My bill was 90.00 for this AWFUL EXPERIENCE "DONT EVER GO HERE" STATE BOARD NEEDS TO BE CALLED. They DONT DISINFECT or SANITARY. read more

Well if I would've known that the lady was going to add nail polish remover into a nail polish bottle I would've just gone to my normal no leave it because as soon as the 10 minutes of drying my nails the nail polish was still coming off for almost $48 I don't think it's worth the price never coming here again I'm just gonna stick to my regular no lady read more

Kim is amazing. I used to come here every week for a couple years and then I stopped coming in due to financial changes. Kim remembered me the second I walked in, and was just as warm and personable as shes always been. Not only is the staff incredibly kind, the quality of the work is impeccable. I havent had my nails done by anyone else in years because it's just not the same as here. read more

Smiley Nails - What a great place. Love Amy. She makes u feel like family - Nail Salons Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

On the bright side, my eyebrow wax came out great! As for the rest of it, I got a regular pedicure and gel manicure, french tip on both. The lines on toes are crooked, and the gel manicure cracked on nearly all my nails within 24 hours. I went back and they were nice and redid the manicure, but the same thing happened. 24 hours later the gel has cracked and caused my long natural nails to break completely off. I am down to nubs. read more

Amy did a wonderful job with my pedicure! She communicated well, took extra time on the sides of my toenails, did extra with cuticle removal, a fantastic massage that showed she actually cared, and painted them perfectly. Pedicure, $20, mani pedi $32. Will come back for sure! read more

They only reason I'm giving this place two stars is because one lady that worked there was really nice but this place is terrible compared to other places that I've been in the area very basic pedicure for $40 save your time and money and go to Riley's nails will get way more for your money and they do a great job. Heals still crusty after paying extra for callus removal and my polish is bad and I didn't even bother to have her fix again because she already had to fix first lady's work once. As you can see in pick that paint is bumpy and piling at cuticle my 11 year old can paint better than this. It looked as if other customers were getting better treatment. You must have to be a regular here to get good work done, I don't know but will not be returning here again. read more

I needed to remove an SNS gel manicure that was very grown out, so I squeezed a Walk-In after my night shift and Becca removed the gel for only $10. She was very cautious to not over-dry my nails with acetone or over-buffer them because she wanted to make sure I was left with a healthy nail (and I was!). Excellent, professional service. The salon is very pretty and welcoming, and they provide many services other than nails. I think I'll be back soon for a pedicure! read more

I had my first visit to Smiley Nails this afternoon. I was VERY impressed and happy with their service. Lucy did my pedicure and was wonderful! She was so gentle and sweet. My nails are a little "funky" but she made them look beautiful! She massaged my feet and calves and really made me feel pampered. Amy, who did my manicure, was great and my nails look beautiful. I am thoroughly pleased with them. The sparking color she suggested is perfect! She knows her stuff! The beer for my hubby and the wine for me were wonderful surprises and very refreshing on a hot afternoon. When I go back again -- which I will! -- I will definitely request Lucy and Amy! Thank you, ladies, for a relaxing and pampered afternoon with (what I consider) VIP treatment. read more

They have been and wine. What a way to relax. My nails also look great. ;) They where so nice and I loved visiting with my sister from California. read more

If I could...I would give them 0 stars. I went to this place off and on for 3 years. I visited them right before my trip on Thursday and I had to wait 25 minutes for a guy to do my nails. He rushed and did not do a great job on my nails. The paint chipped, cracked and is very uneven. His work space was filthy and so were the floors and walls. I only came in for a manicure. I walked in and let him know I was unhappy a couple days later and all I got was attitude and him saying hr will redo and it might be free if i kept the same color. Poor customer service. Do not waste your money. This place has gone completely down hill. read more

this is the worst place for a fill Kim claimed she had 26 years experience but i dont think so for 43 dollars i paid the over all job was shitty my nails are not square they are all lumpy they are very dull no shine to them i walked out with sticky nails never again will i go there much less recommend that salon. come on ladies be truthful of your experience there they do not do a good job.There was a customer there getting her nails done she had to have the lumps in her nails drilled done and one nail was longer then the others come on if you have 20 something years experience you should be able to do nails with your eyes closed read more

Poor service. Do not come here if you are not a regular. Just another rude nail shop. Charged an extra $5.00 to scrub Calluses on my feet. Wow! Take your money somewhere else. read more

Ok, Ahwatukee...this is now my go-to nail salon every single time. I recently moved back to Ahwatukee after three years away and am very impressed with the changes at Smiley Nails now that it is under new ownership. The staff there are very good at what they do and they want their customers to be completely satisfied. I've been rough on my nails the past few months, as I have taken on some major house projects, and my nails have taken a beating. Whenever I break a nail, Kim always takes care of it for me and does not give me any hassle. Smiley Nails can do it all, including the power dip nails, which is my current preference. They can usually handle walk-ins but it is best to call ahead if you are on a tight schedule. read more

Worst full set of my life. Super sloppy.. had to ask her to remove excess paint from sides of my nails. My fingers are covered in thin layers of acrylic. The pedicure was equally as horrible. Don't give this place the benefit of the doubt. read more

Although I'm currently sitting in the pedicure chair, I have been here a grip of times and absolutely love Smiley Nails!!! Super convenient (right by Bank of America, Sakana Sushi, AND my office), reasonable prices, great service, and SUPER friendly staff!!! 8 pedicure chairs, 8 nail stations , and a waxing room. Relatively small but I have never had a wait. You can consider me a regular!!! read more

We're going to find a different nail place in the Ahwatukee area next time we need a mani/pedi. Although the staff was very nice I was rushed through both my pedicure and manicure despite there being no wait (but it was a full house). I was done with both the pedicure and manicure by the time my mom was done with her pedicure. My feet were left rough and polish was sloppy. The polish for my manicure was bubbly and not cleaned from my cuticles. Pricing is average compared to similar nail salons. read more

Becca is the BOMB! I have been going to her for almost 10 years. She is SUPER friendly, and more importantly VERY good at what she does! Anything from Mani/Pedi to Acrylics.. or even freehand art design on your lil piggies.. Becca will make you look fabulous. I like to call ahead of time and ask if Becca is available. If I'm in a rush for a pedi and she can't fit me in (RARE OCCASION because Becca can ALWAYS squeeze you in somewhere) Go to her brother Henry! He is hilarious! And handles you with just as much care. Any time I pay extra for Becca to freehand something artsy over my nails, I tell her to do whatever she wants to do.. and Voila! It comes out GORGEOUS! I get compliments even when I'm WAY overdue. When I used to religiously get Acrylics, I had a hard time being available for fills every 2 weeks. Most nail salons will make you take them off if you've waited longer than 2-3weeks and start all over again with an expensive new set.. But not Becca. She knows her stuff, and will take care of you even when you're overdue! Tell her Brandee sent you! read more

I have come here on and off for the past five years. Becca is great, but is always booked with regulars. I have seen Cindy/Nhi and she is really good. A few weeks ago I went in for a gel manicure and got an older woman I hadn't seen before. She tried to up-sell me the polish powder for $8 more. I told her the gel polish was fine, She kept insisting (4 times!) saying that the gel would peel. I told her that I hadn't had trouble with peeling gel before. Then I noticed (too late) that before she polished my nails, she didn't spray/wipe my nails with alcohol nor did she use the gel primer. After about three days they did start to peel. Getting a manicure a few times a year is one of the only nice things I do for myself. I don't like feeling cheated or that someone did a half-assed job because I didn't opt for the more expensive service. I will probably never go back to this nail salon. read more

Extremely rude staff, poor quality job. The pedicure was fine $20 plus $5 for callus removal, paint job is sloppy. Manicure was $12 and absolutely awful- the paint was bubbling and peeling while I was still there. One finger was particularly bad so I asked her to fix it, which she tried to do with nail polish removal but this finger just obviously needed to be redone. When I expressed this to her she took the end of her tool and hit it down on my finger and scrapped right through the polish- just removed it. No need for the rude attitude. She continued to slip 6 thick coats on one after another which of course didn't dry and just slid off my nail. I said okay I have to go can I just have my money back and be done with this. They refused. Flat out rude and very poor quality that they will not back up. read more

I drive 45 minutes to go to this salon because I ALWAYS get a beautiful mani/pedi from Cindy. I have been coming here for a few years and the new management has made it even better with wonderful changes to the decor, basin liners for pedicures, new colors, etc. and they are planning even more upgrades. The salon is clean, they greet me when I enter and their prices are great. I love this place and don't go anywhere else. read more
