Q Nails

I really enjoy this place. Their prices are very reasonable and their service is always quick. Basic mani/​pedis are always great here. I have noticed that you get better and more attentive service if you book an appointment ahead of time but walking in is just fine too! The quality of nail designs depends on the person. Some do an outstanding job while I have trouble figuring out what the design is supposed to be with others. Just be careful they don’t get too overzealous with the cuticle cutting and the nail trimming.

My sister and I got our toes done for my trip to Jamaica. We had a great experience and our toes look great! We got a bottle of water each when we arrived and our chairs were reclined and set to massage. The foot and leg massage was much longer than I expected — not that I’m complaining! The ladies are very gentle and pleasant. They even gave us plastic to put over our toes to ensure nothing smudged when we put our boots back on to leave. I highly recommend Q Nails. Best $ 30 pedicure around!

Q nails is my favorite place to get my gel mani and pedi. I am the type of person who loves having groomed nails and toes and a relaxing experience but doesn’t want to be in the nail salon for 3 hours. I don’t even really care about the massage.
After moving to acton in the spring a friend told me about q nails. I was pleased to find that Q is a no frills, fast and friendly type of place. They are clean and have a large selection of colors to chose from. They always offer you a beverage and make an effort to make recommendations for you in a warm and friendly way. They are also a great value with reasonable prices and top quality work.
Q nails is not the type if place you would love if you were looking for a long spa pedi with all bells and whistles which is precisely why I love it! It’s definitely worth trying!

Best place hands down for your nails. Love them, they are very precise and I walk out happy. I have been going to them for over 2 years and i cant say enough good things !!! A must go, and their prices are fair.

Q nails is fantastic– professional service and friendly people. Why does that horrible toe picture appear when you google them? I don’t believe it is truly from them. Q nails is very clean and my pedicure is always great. Why does Unilocal amplify that picture next to the business name? It is very unfair to Q nails– is this some kind of punishment by Unilocal because they didn’t pay to be business members? Something is not right here. Support q nails– they are awesome and did not deserve that!

Unfortunately I have to give this salon a two star review even though the staff was really nice and they squeezed my friend and I In for service. The nail tech that did my manicure cut my cuticle and really rushed my gel manicure. The edges were so uneven, the tips of the nails were bare in some spots where she didn’t completely finish the paint stroke, two of my nails chipped the next day after showering bc I believe the manicure was done too quickly and carelessly. My toes looked great! However a day later my middle toe became red, swollen, and painful. It was infected. I think the tech my have cut my skin on my toe as well but I didn’t notice until it became infected. I will not be going to this salon again.

I love Q nails! They are always really nice and do an excellent job!

Returned here recently and felt it was a great value at $ 30 for the pedicure. The tech did a thorough exfoliating scrub on my foot and heel and the paint job was excellent. Went to a place recently in Concord that was cheaper but the service wasn’t as thorough. Would return again!

The quick version: I am currently on antibiotics after getting an infection during a pedicure at Q Nails.
The full story: I recently moved to the area and was in need of a new place to get my regular pedicures. I read great reviews on Q Nails and it is fairly close to my house. The experience was fine and the end result was a good pedicure. This was a Thursday evening. Saturday morning I woke up with a terribly itchy and unsightly rash on my lower ankles. The pants I wore to get my toes done didn’t pull up very high and thank god.
I went to the doctor and was diagnosed with folliculitis — an INFECTION. The hair follicles on my ankles are infected due to the lack of cleanliness at Q Nails and I am currently on antibiotics. In all my years of pedicures I have never had an issue and after this it is going to take me a long time to get back in a pedicure chair. So, unless you take your pedicures with a round of antibiotics I would steer clear of Q Nails.

Always the best. Good quality and very nice staff. Clean and thorough.

My 1^st visit today for acrylic tipped french manicure. Christine did a beautiful job, was very pleasant and eager to please my preferences. They even extended their closing time to fit me in. I highly recommend The salon!

Great local find. Not fancy, very clean and friendly. Fabulous pedicure and leg massage… Will definitely go back!

Thorough, thorough, thorough! The pedicure was awesome and they massage your legs for a long time. The owners are a cute couple and the atmosphere is great!

The service at Q Nails was exceptional, friendly, and timely.
My manicurist did what seemed to be a BEAUTIFUL job on my nails.
The problem was that my shellac chipped in days. I’ve had shellac numerous times and it’s lasted up to six weeks with no chips. Heck, I’ve never had a shellac mani chip. This one chipped in about 4 days and progressively continued to chip all over. The nail polish quality must not have been a very good brand, I was shocked how short lived my beautifully done shellac mani lasted. :-/

I went to this small salon for the first time yesterday because I am new to the area and wanted to find a decent and affordable place to get a mani/​pedi. This place is it. Not the fanciest place in the world but the staff is very nice and attentive, do a fantastic job and I got my services at a great price. The salon was clean and from what I could tell they had a lot of repeat business. A lot of the women in the salon had been there before and the staff knew them by name. I think that’s nice. One thing to make note of, they only accept tips in cash so make sure you bring some with you!

I just moved here from California and have been searching for a good nail salon and thanks to all the positive reviews on Unilocal I found Q Nails! They did a great job on a pink and white full set and a pedicure. I am very picky about the shape, width and length of my nails and the nail tech did a fantastic job! My pedicure was delightful … great foot massage, warm towels … the works! The staff was super friendly and welcoming!!! I will definitely be a regular at Q Nails!

I went in to have a shellac manicure done and they were wonderful. I was very pleased with the staff, cleanliness of the salon and especially the quality of the work. She told me if it started to chip or peel at any time in the next two weeks to come it and they would fix it up or free. It didn’t peel or chip but the fact that they offered speaks volumes. I will absolutely be returning.

How have I missed this gem of a place? The best pedicure and shellac manicure I have seriously ever had. Staff is so incredibly friendly and happy — so nice to be around. Place was exceptionally clean. All around winner and I will most certainly be back.

Best place in Acton for a manicure and pedicure! They do an excellent job every single time and always try to accommodate me when I drop in or call last minute. Also, they are very affordable. Let’s just say that their services are almost half the price of the salon next door and they do a far superior job.

No, I didn’t get MY nails done, but I popped in for a gift cert for Kim. Very nice little setup in there, and terrific customer service. Kim went in with her GC today, no appointment and came out raving — «best manicure/​pedicure I’ve ever had». That warrants a pretty positive review, right?
I like their off street parking too.
