Perfect Nails and Spa

The best, low-​priced nail salon in the southern capital district! Clean, bright, well staffed, and spacious, this is an easy, relaxing place for a walk-​in mani or pedi. The technician named T gave me the best foot massage I’ve ever had along with a great, standard manicure. Better ambiance and cleaner than VIP across the street. Manicures are $ 14, Pedi are $ 25.

I don’t usually go here for my nails, but it looked clean and not terribly busy. I went with someone else we both wanted pedicures and gel nails. They took her first. I waited 45 minutes while 3 or 4 other clients were brought in and taken before me. The pedicure was fine, just seemed to take some time. When it was time for nails, I had gel polish on that bad to be removed. Instead of soaking my nails the tech just started ripping the color off. I had to ask multiple times for her to stop because it hurt so bad. I told her she had to soak my nails and after discussing with one of her coworkers she finally soaked my nails. It took her forever to do my nails and kept messing up and having to redo them. 2 ½ hours later, my nails look messy and I could have spent my time and money elsewhere. Terribly disappointed in my experience and I will never go back.

I went here today to have my nails done as it was the only place open in the snow storm. I am new o the area and have been trying all of the different places so I can find my new nail salon. It worked out great that they were the only place open because I have not tried them yet. I get a Gel Manicure and pedicure every 2 weeks which for ladies that get their nails done knows this translate to $ 50+ and a tip. Today would have been more than double that because I brought my daughter for a pedicure and a full set of acrylic nails and my 2^nd daughter was going to get a manicure with polish. When we arrived there were only 2 techs, but with the weather I understood. There was a patron already there and we asked how long it would be as we did not want to be waiting that long. They said other techs were on their way. When we entered the salon they asked what we wanted and we clearly stated what services we wanted. My daughter was home from school and wanted to get pedicures at the same time so we could enjoy the experience. The owner or head person at the salon was telling her she had to have her hands done first. My daughter said she wanted her pedicure done first, the lady argued with her until my daughter almost said she would did not want to get anything done. Finally my daughter was in the chair next to me getting her pedicure and I’m half way through mine and she tells me the price is $ 5 more for my gel manicure. That I have to pay $ 5 extra to for the removal of my old gel polish. So its a total of $ 30. I asked her why she only told me $ 25 when I came in. she said she didnt know I had gel on when I came in and I showed her my hands, plus ive never paid to have my polish removed before. I would not have stayed or let them begin my pedicure. I would have left and waited. The bottom line she was extremely rude and I only had my pedicure done but did not let them polish my toes as I like my polishes to match and I knew I’d have to go somewhere else. I told her if this was a problem over $ 5 I would not be returning and she said fine, i didnt have to return. I was going to be spending $ 110 plus tips today but only allowed them to finish mine and my daughters pedicures and left. I’d never go back here, even if they were the only place open. Never had such a terrible experience ever. I cant say my pedicure was good because I was too annoyed to enjoy it. DONT EVER GO HERE!!! there are several other salons like VIP Acrossed the street from them that give provide exceptional service.

I came in with high expectations. The salon was beautiful and the staff were friendly. Unfortunately, the nail artist who helped me was very inexperienced or unskilled. He put too many layers of polish on my nails and filed them all different lengths. He told me he could do ombré nails and then just painted them with different tips. If you cannot do something, don’t tell me you can. He also charged me extra money to cut down my nails when there was no charge listed and he also didn’t tell me about the charge. He acted like the extra charge was a favor because he didnt charge me for a full set, only a fill (because it should have only been a fill). He seemed not to know how to do a fill, which is why he did a full set. I should not have to pay for someone’s lack of skill. He also took 3 hours, and I had to wait for my nails to dry twice because he messed up the first coat. They also tried to just «fix» their mistake rather than redo what was done incorrectly (and argued with me about it). I would rate this place at a zero if it wasnt in such a pleasant atmosphere.

The most wonderful nail place!!! They fixed a totally lousy full set I got the week before at the nearby Walmart Regal. Kim was THE gentlest tech I have ever gone to (and I have been to many over the years). She was very sweet and kind. I have arthritis and she never even gave me one twinge of pain. She hand painted the prettiest flowers complete with silver sparkles. I am so very very pleased! I will never go anywhere but there from now on!!! Kim is fabulous!!! If you want your nails done beautifully by the sweetest techs go here!!!
