29th Nail Spa

The girls were all very nice. However, my fingernails do not look like I spent an hour getting them done, maybe 20 – 30 minutes. My toes look ok, but maybe because they are far away and I can’t inspect them. Well I could, but whatever.
My polish is uneven, and streaky. The base coat was applied poorly, resulting in areas where it is too thick or non existent.
I went because they were open late, and convenient location. The polish looked old, and half hazardly organized, making it hard to choose colors.
If you need a quick ok fix, its suitable. Don’t expect anything great
Overall, I’m not impressed.

So unhappy with my experience at this nail spa today. It took over 2 hours to get a mani pedi which was less then average… The lady left me with bleeding cuticles and the price for this was $ 75 which is absurdly high. When I went to pay I left a $ 7 tip (I am a college student and I was unhappy with my nails so I believed that was a perfectly appropriate tip) and the woman who did my nails very rudely told me they only accepted tips of 15% or more. I was so taken back I quickly added an extra 2 dollars and left. Looking back I wish I would have just crossed of the $ 7 tip and walked out. Very very unhappy with the service at this nail salon and will absolutely not be going back.

I had such a pleasant experience here yesterday! It wasn’t busy due to the snow storm — I had a shellac manicure and regular pedicure at the same time. It only took them a little over an hour and they did an amazing job. I would also like to add they were playing some amazing oldies. I will definitely come back. Thank you! Cheers.

The customer service here is fantastic — they go that extra mile to make sure that you’re happy and do their best to stay on time with appointments. I would like more natural products but it does not smell like chemicals or anything here, which is great, and is less expensive than some of the salons in town that have more natural items. Another plus: it’s great for groups as there are lots of stations and chairs to hang out.

I really like this nail spa that is clean and nice place.
And the massage was very good.

Wonderful! Most relaxing and well done experience. Thank you!
Piljong was so thorough and kind. She made the best of my experience.

I love this salon. From the wonderful Korean owner to all the women who work there, I’m always greeted with a smile and a cup of tea. The pedicures I receive are perfect. Many OPI colors available. A super clean establishment with fair prices. And just two doors down from Anthropologie. ;-)

Best gel manicure ever! Super clean, lovely ladies, comfy chairs. Great eyebrow wax as well. Im from Boston and I was totally impressed. Rivals a high end nail salon experience!

I had a great experience here. I walked over around 6:30 on a Monday and was able to start a pedicure right away. It’s a little higher priced than I was expecting ($ 39 + $ 7 for a french pedi), but I found it to be well worth it. The chairs are comfortable, my technician was gentle and didn’t go too crazy with rough filing or over zealous cuticle nipping. She gave a great foot and leg massage and was meticulous about my polish. The service I observed for the other two clients present was also very attentive and they were especially kind to an elderly woman who was just finishing her pedicure when I was starting mine.

So rude. I walked in with a girlfriend & we had our kids. They assumed we wanted to have kids services & turned us away. Not the way a service oriented business should operate. They should have at least asked «how can we help you?»

Hi had what was probably the best pedicure of my life here the other day! The massage portion was absolutely heavenly. Julie was fantastic and I look forward to returning!

Hands down, the worst and most painful pedicure I’ve ever had. Staff is unfriendly and they are expensive for what you get. I’ve paid half this price at other Salons and received 100% better service. I would not recommend this place.

$ 60 pedicure! I would pay that! If my toes didn’t look like crap right now! I’m pissed because I was FORCED TO PAY 18% which was NOT DESERVED. Yes, you heard that right, she said to me with a straight face «the minimum tip requirement is 18%» so I ended up paying $ 70 for a shitty gel pedicure.

I went to get a mani/​pedi here as a little treat to myself. Very comfortable chairs and the woman doing my nails was very nice and easy to talk to however, it’s been two days and my paint already has plenty of chips and I paid $ 70 not including tip. For such an expensive mani/​pedi, they didn’t do a very good job. I’m extremely disappointed with this place and will not be coming back.

My mother and I just had the most relaxing experience here at 29^th Nail Spa! Our mani/​pedi (and shellac for me) was expertly done. It’s clear that they practice cleanliness while going above and beyond to make sure you’re relaxed (hot towels and stones, lavender oils, and recliners just to name a few things). Love it!

Went here today for a GEL mani/​pedi and got the best service! This place is reasonably pricey! How many places do you get hot stones and warm rags and wonderful massages? Not many for these prices. Great job!!! I’ll come back from now on!!!

Love this place!
First of all the chairs are super comfortable and everything is really clean which is a plus. Also, they offered me candy which I obviously could not resist.
All of the women who work there are so friendly and nice, I chatted with the lady doing my nails the whole time! She was very detailed and made sure she was doing my nails perfectly. And whatdoyaknow… I love them!
The location is prime right on the 29^th Street Mall so you can go get Panera or Starbucks or even a quick trip to Victoria’s Secrets when you’re done :)

If I had to give you a one word summary, I’d say inconsistent. The sad fact is that this would describe every nail salon I’ve been to in Boulder — what’s up with that, is there truly no salon around who is consistently good? Anyway, my daughter & I made our monthly pedicure date here today and I’m not happy with that decision.
First (cuz, let’s be nice), here’s what I like about this place:
1. They are very accommodating and both times we’ve been here, it’s been a last minute thing yet they took us right in (they do accept walk-​ins so I realize it’s not a big thing necessarily, but I still appreciate it).
2. Their massage chairs are the BEST around!
3. They’re on 29^th Street — awesome location!
4. The salon is ‘spa-​like’ meaning it’s clean, serene, non-​stinky and spacious.
5. They have all the girly, time-​wasting magazines one could ask for and they’re relatively current ones.
6. I loved the first pedicure I received here.
7. They’re not the highest priced place in town.
Now, here’s what I wasn’t happy with and it’s their opportunity for improvement:
1. My pedicure was, at best, shoddy.
2. Not only was it shoddy, but it was painful! …the nail tech sliced under my big toenail with the emery board by rushing and not paying close enough attention. She apologized but proceeded to do it on the other foot too… OUCH! If you’ve ever had this happen, you know it’s all downhill from here as everything else stings.
3. After I realized she didn’t plan to, I had to ask her to please clean out from underneath my nails. Apparently that was lost in translation as she still didn’t do what I asked; rather, she cut chunks out of the corner of my toenails making them uneven and just stupid looking.
4. The colors I picked out were blue and orange… don’t laugh, I’m a Broncos fan and I’m excited football season is here! I explained I didn’t really care how the colors were incorporated but we tossed around some ideas (more mine than hers) and then settled on blue with orange polka dots — easy, peasy and should be cute enough except, SHE COULDN’T DO IT! She had someone else come over to do it and I wish they’d just said that they really didn’t have that skill level because she proceeded to put sloppy orange dots on — and by sloppy, I mean it was what I’d expect from an 8 year old. I had her stop at just one toe on each foot because I knew I was taking it off as soon as I got home. Seriously, it was an awful job :(
5. I hated this second pedicure.
6. They’re not the cheapest place in town yet this quality was far worse than the ones I get at that cheapest place.
7. We had to wait around for someone to come over to take payment so we could leave. My happy moment of this pedi was that they didn’t even try to charge me additional for the ‘artwork’.
Not sure I’ll be back for another visit here for awhile.

I’m only giving four stars because I just got my nails done today and don’t know how long they will last. However, I was very satisfied with the women who work here, cleanliness and quality of my manicure and pedicure.
I got a hot stone pedicure that felt great and my mom got a mask pedicure that she loved. They were even very accommodating to injuries my mom has with her hands.
Lastly I have to mention how comfortable the place is. The chairs for manicures are recliners, pedicure chairs are clean and comfy and all the utensils are clean.
Overall very pleased!

I usually got to nail salon on Baseline, but they close at 7:00. I knew that 29^th Nails had opened and when I found out they were open until 9:00 I made an appointment. When I arrived I was the only customer in the salon. I still had a little polish from my previous manicure and so she wrapped a couple of my fingers in foil and did not return for 20 minutes.
Once the polish was off, I asked how much for a gel french manicure. She told me that it would be $ 49! I could not believe it. At my usual salon it is $ 38. I told her I would do a regular manicure, which was $ 25…still too much in my eyes but I was already in the chair. The ambiance of the salon was a little stiff. It was almost too quiet. Instrumental music and freezing! Finally another woman came in, but that did nothing to lighten the atmosphere. When I tried to engage in conversation with the technician she replied with one word answers, which led me to believe that she was not in the mood to talk and so I just stayed silent. I felt very uncomfortable.
After about 70 minutes the process was complete. Overall, the manicure was a bit sloppy. I feel like I could have done this one myself. Perhaps they were having an off day, but I don’t think i’ll be returning
