    Tropical nail has a great group of nail technicians that make you feel very comfortable in there place of business I will recommend Steve or Nancy to do your nails

    This joint is off the chain! I had Charlene as my technician and she was amazing! Clean area, owners seemed very nice, a lot of nail colors! Totally amazing!!! Must go!! Ask for Charlene!!!

    I've been here twice. The first time was a great experience (I got a pedicure from Minh!). However, this time, I recieved a messy manicure. The edges looked very unrefined, there is polish left on my skin, and some of the polish over-floods my cuticles. When I asked if they could fix some of the nails, they simply painted more polish over it. It took almost 2 hours for this end result... I felt like I could've painted my own nails at home, and it would've turned out better than this. The people were nice to me, but I felt like I didn't get my money's worth because of this manicure work.

    Been coming to this shop since September and I love it. The shop is spacious and the customer service is amazing. I used to do walk-ins but because of how busy they tend to get I make appointments now. I haven't had any real problems with my sets from here, besides my chrome peeling off within one day that I was able to get fixed the following day. I don't think the tech I had really knew what she was doing because she had to ask another tech questions. My nails do round out kinda fast in-between fills which I hate but other than that I've been pleased with my nails since coming here. My current set has held up nicely and my crystals are all still intact, not to mention I work in a warehouse so I can be hard on my hands and nails most times.

    I wanted to feel pampered today...and I did. I lived in Waldorf at one point, but I'm definitely out of touch when it comes to what is actually good out here anymore. I've been to California Nails, Golden Nails, New Lady Nails and Vspa was suggested to me as well. I had to run an errand at the mall anyway, so I figured I could come here. I was their very first client this morning. I got a basic manicure with clear from Vaughn and I got lemongrass + green tea pedicure with white gel polish and I paid $98 for my services. I had great conversation with Vaughn over my mani - he gave me complimentary water and fresh fruit cup. My only pet peeve is nail techs not cleaning under the nails and although, I only got clear polish I was expecting a base coat + polish + top coat but alas, I only got one coat. (It's the little things that count!) I had a bomb ass pedicure though--completely worth the money. Tony was very patient, paid attention to detail and accommodating. He even brought a heater nearby us, so that I didn't get cold from drafts in the building. I was completely relaxed and enjoyed myself. My service included regular pedi + callous removal + exfoliation + massage + paraffin wax. I would definitely re-visit and recommend over most of the nail salons I used to frequent. Check the pictures to see the process and end product.

    My Bestfriend Took Me A Date On Valentines Day & We Got A Champagne & Rose Pedicure With Hot Stones Added. Minh Did Mines & Tony Did Hers. I Haven't Had A Pedicure In A While And That Was The Best Thing All Day. I'm Definitely Coming Back For Minh.‼‼

    They are the best! I have gone to tons of nail places but I always end up going back to tropical nails. They are a tad expensive but nothing too crazy but it is reasonable because they do a great job. My set was $60 but I got a full set with accent nails (see photos) I mostly walk in but if you're going to go on a busy day it's better to schedule an appointment. If you can ask for Frank, he is the absolute best! My latest set was done by him and they came out beautiful. I did Halloween themed nails

    I went to this nail salon yesterday with my boyfriend and I had a guy named Terry he was very disrespectful and rude when I said down he says ew do you have any nails and I said yes I just bite my nails really bad so he's been rough and he cuts four of my fingers so at this point I'm making a face because of the discomfort and pain in he says girl it does not hurt that bad and I was like how you gonna tell me that it doesn't hurt that bad how about i beat your ass and I tell you that itdon't hurt that bad

    I think this is a 2nd or 3rd degree burn no polish at all this must be after I told her several times that the paraffin wax burned

    Today my daughter and I patronized this business and it was the worst experience. First the receptionist asked if we could wait to see if an appointment show up which they did not. The gentleman once we showed what service we wanted immediately said "I don't have time for that service. Like I was going to change my mind. He comes back to service my daughter and then a young lady comes to service me. They've been talking to each other the entire time and at one point he looked at my foot after she said something and they both laughed. But anywho, the service went on and it just hurt so bad even the callus removing (normally tickles) but it hurt today I was burned by the paraffin wax, I mean I'm telling her this burns and she's running water on me and still squishing it around. I've been checked on maybe four times during this visit and I'm not happy at all. Just to bring this up I came here June 10th for an eyebrow service that I was not happy about I naturally have thick eyebrows and told the water o wanted them thin she did not listen took a little off and tells me what looks better, I had a photo shoot later that day and they only offered for her to redo them I said no paid and left very upset. I went to another nail salon where she arched and shaped my eyebrows perfectly and my pictures came out exactly like I wanted. But back on today...., I will not come back here!!! Before COVID this salon was the best that Waldorf offered and now it's a little too careless for what I'm accustomed to. Allura Nail Bar on Central Avenue Janet is the owner and she treats me better than family!!!! Today o woke up and my nails are black I'm so angry!!!!

    the prices were good, my fill set was $35, i got someone named david and he cut me twice but was polite about it. overall it was a good experience and i would definitely go again

    Nails by Danny! I've received so many compliments!
    Terrenda W.

    Danny was my nail tech! I walked in, showed him what I wanted and he executed it! He's a very sweet and polite man and he will definitely be seeing me more often

    Look at the edgings how bad! This looks like my daughter did her own nails

    My daughters just left the nail salon and called me telling me they did not do what they asked them to do. They have just lost my business. I've poured a lot of money into this place over the years but they have gone down hill.

    Charlene is really good, gotten my nails twice with her, and I'm already planning my third trip. She works fast and clean. No wonder she's always booked. Super clean and super nice staff. I definitely recommend!!!! Update: Charlene is the best

    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!‍

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.

However, after leaving and getting to my car, I noticed gel polish left on my big toe and, once I put on my glasses, realized the overall polish application was very messy. I immediately returned to the salon and was told to wait until Titi finished with her next client. Since I had to get to work, I asked if another technician could quickly fix the issue, but I was told she had to correct her own work. I then asked if I could return the following day, but was informed there were no available appointments. At that point, I requested a refund, but the front desk associate stated that it was beyond her authority. I asked for a manager and was told there was no manager on site. I later requested a call from management, but never received one. I've been a loyal customer of this salon for about three years, and John has always done a phenomenal job with my nails. I've only been getting pedicures there for the past year, which is why this experience was so disappointing. More than the quality of the pedicure, I was surprised by the lack of customer service and unwillingness to work with me to resolve the issue. Unfortunately, because of this experience, I am disputing the charge with my bank and will not be returning.

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.
