Relaxation Nails

I love this place. Even though it can be a busy place to go to, I always get taken care of right away. All the ladies are super nice.

Now that I’ve gone there a few times, the gals have gotten much friendly and I feel welcome and comfortable there, although I still think it’s a bit expensive, with EVERYTHING being extra.
What keeps bringing me back is that it’s convenient, I like the area, they will always take me without an appointment and most of all, the polish lasts FOREVER!
TIP: They do not allow tipping on credit charges, so bring some cash.

will never go to this nail salon again. not even for a last resort.

Very relaxing place with nice workers… Just beware that if they ask you if you want something (ex: sea salt exfoliant, design, c remover etc.) it will cost extra and can add up

Again awesome experience!!! Get mani lasted since July 3^rd and being a nurse with as much as I wash my nails that’s saying a lot! Love the people, place and job they do

Was very pleased with my pedicure from Marley today. She showed attention to detail, making sure that there were no stray bits of polish or smudges. And the leg massage she gave was wonderful!!!
Yes, they do offer/​ask if you would like additional services, but I felt no pressure. And I did appreciate getting the calluses removed — my heels are «baby soft» now. She was very clear in explaining the extra charge — no surprises when I paid.
Everyone was helpful and cheerful.
Will definitely be back.

How did a two $ 28 mani/​pedi end up $ 148? Not going back. Read the price list and make sure they understand what you want. Watch the up sell. Not sure on the integrity of the employees i had…

They do not do a good job cleaning nails and cuticles. Very rushed pedicure. They never do a decent massage. Have gone in several times because they are close to home, hoping they would improve, but they are consistently bad. OPI Polish is cut with nail polish remover and it shows. The nail ladies are very nice but their work is crappy and overpriced.

Went today to get Superbowl nails! They did an amazing job! They helped pick out the colors and mix/​matched them so it would look like the perfect grass green! So happy with how it came out! Always satisfied leaving this salon! The ladies there are soo kind and helpful!

this place is far from relaxing, their prices are not true to what they say they are, and the service is awful.
after waiting 20 minutes to have one person start on us (there were 3 of us there), I am given a hasty clean up around the cuticles, and the lady cut the skin off 2 of my fingers. she did not provide the proper care and kept wiping the blood off on the towel. she then slammed the uv gel dryer onto my lap, where it stayed throughout the whole manicure. she did an awful job on my nails, filling in only parts of the nail, and doing an extremely messy job.
it says that a gel manicure on their board is $ 20, and when asked how much it was, the lady said $ 40. I confronted her on this and she said simply said «no»
awful place — do not come here!!!

Still can’t figure out how I ended up paying $ 58 for a gel mani/​reg pedi when I didn’t get anything extra — and this is the 4^th time this has happened. Seems that communicating with the staff is ok until it is time to pay — then you can’t understand what they are saying. They definitely try to gouge you the ENTIRE time you are there — makes it a VERY UNCOMFORTABLE «spa mani/​pedi». ENOUGH ALREADY. AND STOP TALKING SHIT about your customers in front of them. FREAKIN RUDE!

I used to love this place. Mary is good but if you get anyone else it’s worthless. I told the woman who did my mani that I was missing paint on the sides of my nails, spots missing and cuticle just hanging. She said she would fix it then when she said she was done I look down and they are just as bad if not worse. I stopped coming here for a year an a half and thought just maybe something would have changed. The only thing that changed were their raised prices. Epic fail.

The color choices are good. Unfortunately I chose a light gel color which are out translucent. After two coats on my right hand it looked terrible so I had the lady change colors. She did a third coat and it came out too thick. THEN asked if I wanted 4 coats! With the base and top coat that would be 6 coats total. Not to mention she didn’t even paint anywhere near my cuticles. I could do a better job than this. Hell, Stevie Wonder could have done a better job! I had to keep showing her where she missed. I even told her if pay to re do it but she insisted it would look fine. Meh. MEH!!!
Total cost = $ 53 = rip off
Worst money spent. AND they don’t take AMEX! WTF?!?
They should change the name. This place ain’t relaxing at all.
I only gave them the 1 star for the good range of OPI and AXXIUM colors.
ALSO THEY TALKED SHIT ABOUT US THE WHOLE TIME AND DIDN’T REALIZE WE CAN SPEAK VIETNAMESE!!!

:ALAAAARRRRRRM:
Avoid my cousins here! Although the gel color selection is decent, they’re super lazy, sloppy and unprofessional. Expect to pay $ 58 for a normal pedi and gel mani. They try to cut corners like not removing nail polish and starting over on a nail when it’s messed up or just layering on more layers of polish when your gel color doesn’t look right. They also are super shady about what they’re adding on and charging you. On top of that, they pretty much shit talked and encouraged each other to be shady the entire time –my little Vietnamese ears were burning!
Eeek. Definitely never coming back. Avoid if you actually want to get your nails done — cuz you’re gonna need to go home and redo them yourself! Dit me may!

For Gel.
Walk-​in at 6 for a quick nail sesh. Asked how much it would cost. It was $ 35, but I guess its average in this area. After seeing their wide range of gel colors (mostly OPI & Gelish!), I was convinced that $ 35 was probably worth it. So I sat down.
I will soon regret my decision.
Nothing relaxing about my experience. The lighting was very «loud» and «harsh». The décor is very confusing. There is an uncomfortable silence, except for the chatter of the nail ladies in Vietnamese.
During my experience, I asked for shorter squared nails. My nails were already perfect squared, so it’s not like I’m asking her to reshape them for me. She probably didn’t understand me, and curved my nails… either that or she just doesn’t know how to square. BLAH!
Oh and she also charged me for removing my previous nails without telling me before hand. Hey lady, you should tell me because not every nail place charges for that okay?
When painting my nails, she placed the UV light on my lap. UNCOMFORTABLE!
Anyway, the rest was average, the massage, the lotion, etc. Except the nail polish. It was unacceptably thick… with bubbles. GROSS! If I wanted an impression of the Hunchback of Notre Dame on my nails, I would say very good impression. But no, sorry, I just wanted solid one color gel nails. Not a mountain, or a hill on my nail.
My total for the horrendous job was $ 43.
NO!
JUST NO!
I could’ve went somewhere else with that money and got a better salon experience & design.

It’s $ 28 for a pretty good mani/​spa pedi but MAKE SURE you say no to everything they’re trying to discretely offer you while you’re in the middle of your pedicure because they’ll start offering to do things like use a special scrub for your legs or to remove the callouses without letting you know they will charge extra. Next thing you know, your mani/​pedi turns into over $ 35… Other than that, ladies are super friendly.
They do take credit cards but bring cash for tip since they don’t like putting tip on card.

When my daughter needed a pedicure and acrylics for her birthday party, we decided to stay close to home and try somewhere new. The place looked clean and Unilocal reviews were decent, so we gave it a shot. Big mistake!!! My 15 year old left with a bleeding cuticle, a hair (that was not hers!) painted over on her ring finger, and the nails started falling off less then 24 hours later. Wtf?! Not worth $ 65! We would’ve done better going to Rite Aid and getting press-​on nails. I encouraged my daughter to go back and get the nails redone, but she really didn’t want another bleeding finger and crappy nail job. I can’t blame her, but sure is disappointing. :/​
On a nicer note, her toenails came out fine and blood/​hair free. Hence the 2 stars.

$ 28 for a Mani/​Pedi in a comfortable, clean, and friendly nail spa? That’s exactly what you’ll get when you come to Relaxation Nails. The staff is super friendly, efficient and they *gently* try to up-​sell you on the add-​ons to your nail work. They don’t give you faces or clack their tongue when you tell them «no thank you» to the suggestion of callous removal (as I often get when I visit other salons).
They work quickly, too. I was done in about 40 – 45 minutes. It would be a great place to come on a lunch break.

Came here on my lunch break from work since I was in desperate need of a mani and pedi. I called ahead for appointments for myself and my coworker, although we probably didn’t need to since it was the middle of the week.
They have a pretty big selection of OPI colors, but sadly no Essie. The ladies did my mani and pedi pretty quickly and efficiently, and callus removal is an extra $ 5 on top of the $ 28 for mani & pedi.
I would come back here again, since it’s conveniently located near work, and the ladies were very welcoming and did a nice job with my nails.

I wanted a quick pedicure on my lunch break, they had me in and out quickly and did a pretty decent job.
Pros: No waiting, nice new cool massage chairs (no more buckets), conveniently located to my work and home, nice foot massage
Cons: You can’t tip on your credit card, the polish does look a little dull after a few days (but nothing a top coat at home can’t correct), $ 18 for their basic pedicure (a bit pricey, but hey it was convenient).
I’ve been back 2xs in the past 2 ½ months and even brought a co-​worker who also liked the place. I’ll be back again as long as my budget allows it.
