Frenchy’s Day Spa

They have been remodeling and it looks great! Very close to being finished. I had a facial with Cassidy and it was the best facial I have ever had. My pedicure was amazing too. They use biodegradable liners so you know it is clean. They also offer Zoya polish which is free of all the nasty chemicals and better for your nails.

Fun place to get nails done and BYOC (champagne)… kind of run down but totally a seattle institution :)

I very rarely write reviews, but my experience with Frenchy’s definitely warrants one. I am so torn about this place because I used to come here as a child and absolutely LOVED the service I received, however I was left dissappointed on my first experience here as an adult.
First– the good:
My pedicure was fantastic! Definitely one of the best that I have ever had. I loved the gals working there and everyone was incredibly friendly! I had three friends with me and we brought some champagne which the staff happily served us. The ambiance is wonderful– very classic and upscale. I loved everything about the décor as well as the products used. The instruments were clean and the chairs were incredibly comfortable.
Now– the bad:
I received one of the absolute WORST shellac manicures of my life! I went on Saturday afternoon, and not even twenyfour hours later– my right index finger’s polish peeled right off. Today (Monday) My thumb nail polish did the same thing. I have never had this happen before and this dissapoints me greatly. The price for the manicure and pedicure is roughly $ 70 plus tip and I expect a manicure that lasts more than one day for that price. I also was slightly dissappointed when I was asked to get up from the pedicure chair immediately (within one minute) of my pedicure being finished. I then stood and waited until they were ready to begin my manicure (about 10 minutes). I do not mind standing, however I do not like risking my freshly painted nails when I just paid for them to be done. I also don’t appreciate that they don’t schedule time between customers
I consider Frenchy’s an upscale salon and therefore I do expect a certain level of service above what I would expect from the average nail salon around the corner. Unfortunately, this experience did not live up to my expectations and I do not expect to ever come back.

I’ve been coming here for years. I especially love their pedicures. I’ve had them by every single person who works there and they all do the best job, so you can’t go wrong with booking. It’s worth the price and you’ll leave with pretty feet that stay looking that way for a long time. Enjoy, Frenchy’s is one of the best!

Very expensive ($ 50) for a mediocre pedicure. Also not relaxing at all. Your feet are in a plastic bucket, so the water gets cold fast and doesn’t circulate, the chairs are old, the place where you put your feet while their getting painted skids around and there is so much merchandise in there you feel like your drowning. The other people getting their toes done are very close to you– shoulder to shoulder. I was lucky enough to sit next to two very descriptive strippers (no joke). To top it all off, I ended up having some weird reaction to the lotion they used and now my legs feel like I have been bitten by Mosquitos. In the end I left more stressed than when I got there and with nail polish all over the place.

I would give them 5 stars because I love their mani/​pedis but the place isn’t very clean. The bathroom looks like it’s never cleaned.

Frenchy’s fun spa!
Thinking about doing a girls day out? Or rather girls day in? Get your nails did? Drink some bubbles! Take over the place with your best girl friends? This is where I come for it.
I’ve been here for a few times now, mainly for events/​birthdays/​girls days because they accommodate you so well here. You want to bring giant cake and cut it? Sure! Pamper 10 girls at the same time? Sure! Oh and you want shellac on top? Yea! They’ve got it all.
They have fun staffs (at least for us). Parking outside! Cute atmosphere. Nails isn’t too bad either. A little on the pricier side but did I mention champagne though? :) It’s a good spot to spend an afternoon with your girls squealing over things WHILE your nails get pretty. What’s not to love! You have my vote, Frenchy!

Well, you would be disappointed if you go there, very dirty, looks like a 90s clothes store, the main employers doing nothing, and they try so hard to look fancy to charge a lot. The Vietnamese girls who attended me had a bad personal hygiene, if you are going to hire someone to work for you in a «fancy place» ask that person to look nice and presentable.
I pick two stars because I like my nails, but I will never pay that amount of money again, you can find other places, cheaper and with a great service and hygiene.

Frenchy’s is part of my regular Friday night with the girls. I’ve been seeing Marina for about 3 years and absolutely look forward to pedicure Friday. The paraffin and massage is the best part and my toes come out looking super cute. I bring my out of town family & friends with me when they visit Seattle.

Ladies, get your toes and your nails and your faces to Frenchys right now! They do the best pedicures, and facials! How about a massage! Manicure? Done! I have bedn going there for years and I am seldom dissapointed!

Good pedi but zero relaxation. The ladies are nice but talk NON STOP during your entire pedicure in Vietnamese. I’ve never heard people talk so much in my life. Come for a good pedi but just expect the chatter, or bring ear plugs.

I have never had a facial before and decided one day that today was the day. My good friend had told me about Frenchy’s so it was first on my list to call. They were able to get me in that day at a time convenient for me. I was very pleased to find that they had free parking in their building. Once inside the business it was kind of awkward because the reception is over to the side against the wall. I had to look around to figure out who I was to speak to about my appointment. Within minutes I was introduced to the person who’d be giving me my facial, Cassady. What a sweetie! Very kind soul. I had the Parisian au Naturale. The 50 minute session. It was more than I expected! Very relaxing. My face looked great afterwards. I would definitely go again. I was especially touched by the fact that she does eyebrows for woman who have gone through chemo and have lost their eyebrows. My sister had to go through chemo and that was something that she really wanted. She’s a survivor! Yeah. I really appreciated Cassady sharing that with me.
I felt that the $ 90 price was decent. No complaints. Cassady visited with me afterwards briefly — it was a nice touch.

I was so happy with my manicure here; they have a number of wonderful nail techs (not just one as someone else mistakenly posted on here). The arm and hand massage was SO relaxing and then, the paraffin treatment left my skin so soft and supple! Top it off with a beautiful polish and I was super happy! The manager, Claudia, does a wonderful job of making sure everyone feels special and the desk staff keep things humming right along. If you want to feel special, pampered, and leave looking and feeling great… this is the place!

The technicians at Frenchy’s are stellar. Frenchy’s will accommodate just about any type of service you need, from nails to waxing to facials! One of the waxing ladies has been there for 17 years and you can tell that all of the technicians all have their loyal clients and it’s easy to see why. I see disgruntled reviews, which is too bad, but I have never known the staff to be anything but pleasant. Perhaps there are some people you can’t please, I know I have seen that before. All of the staff are very professional and happy to help.

I discovered Frenchys as I was looking for a spa before my wedding. Really convenient hours, so scheduling isn’t too hard. I love the ladies that work here; everyone has been super sweet. Great color selection for shellac and regular nail polish. Waxing here is pretty typical price compared to other spas, but they do a nice job. I must admit that I’ve become loyal to Frenchys!

My gal gave a mean (killer) foot and leg massage, but she wasn’t real friendly until toward the end of the pedicure. She painted my toes well but didn’t shape all of my toenails consistently.
The process of picking out polish is unfriendly as there are several vertical rows of bottles, 3 deep, so you can’t see the polishes in back row very well.
The primary reason I won’t be back is that the pedicure area was dirty, dingy and really beat up. There are stains and chips on the floors, counters, countertops, etc. The foot rest on the pedicure station is cracked all over. Just really old and need of a redo — not a relaxing day spa atmosphere.

Disappointing results and disgustingly dirty at any price, but particularly given how expensive this place is! At one point Frenchy’s must have been an ‘it’ place and I can see the remnants of that but a total disregard for basic maintenance (peeling paint, greasy leather pedicure chairs, dirt/​toenails/​skin all over everything) and a staff that is just punching a clock really ruined it for me. I can get better results than this at home. Save your money and go to one of the many other nail salons in the area (I have since tried Madison Ave. Salon with much better results at a much lower price)

I got a gift certificate from here and decided to use it to get a sorely needed pedicure. While more expensive than what I normally pay for pedicures, they really look after your feet, which is just what my winter cracked heels needed. I also liked that they carried Butter products, although I don’t think they use Butter base /​top coats which kind of defeats the purpose of going 3free.
The reason for the 3 stars — while the chairs are comfy, their stations are dirty looking and messy — dead skin and nails everywhere. They also nipped too deep and my cut toe hurt for two days!
While convenient to where I live, this won’t be my regular nail place — maybe I will give it another go if my feet need the pampering in the future.

I love Frenchy’s!
I’ve had pedis there twice with a different staff member both times, and both were amazing. You get a leg massage, sugar scrub, paraffin dip, hot towels, and complimentary tea/​water/​coffee.
The ladies will chat with you or leave you to read, depending on your preference. I don’t do a lot to pamper myself, but a trip to Frenchy’s is a definite MUST. They have a good selection of quality colors, and I always feel so relaxed when they’re done that I want a nap!

I love, love, love Frenchy’s!!! Since I live in Puyallup, I only get up there twice a year, but the pedicures are totally worth the trip! My friend and I enjoy lounging in the oversized, couch-​style seats, sipping on our coffee, while having leisurely conversation. The ladies who work there are friendly, but not obtrusive, which we really appreciate. Also, the price is very reasonable, and this is coming from a pretty frugal person.
Another perk to going to Frenchy’s is going a few doors down to Arosa Café, where you can get the world’s best Swiss chocolate mocha (with actual choco shavings that have been melted into the milk). A delish hot beverage while getting pampered… Can life get any better?!?
