Spa Hop

Tammy was great. The experience was enjoyable and I had a nice conversation definitely recommend especially for drop ins!

SpaHop is the best nail salon in downtown seattle everyone very friendly, and provide professional service. Beside that the price on shellac and waxing great i am highly recommend other to SpaHop.

I used to come here off and on for the past 3 years and I think i’m over them. Went in for shellac manicure and only one of my nails broke (ahhh…) so I asked if they could put acrylic on it to match the length of the others. She was filing down my nail with the rotary thing and placed it too long that it started to hurt (because it was burning) ugh… this was a new girl and I’ve never had her do my nails before and I would never let her do them again. she kept on saying sorry and I was so worried about giving her control of my hand that I kinda of kept pulling it away. UGH… the nail which has the acrylic on it is so thick I think I could chop wood with it. She didn’t do the usual things that they did like the hot towel, the cuticle softener so she wasn’t pulling on them. It was a horrible experience. There are tons of nail places in Belltown. Sorry Spa Hop but i’m going to have to pass from now on.

where should I start ?
my walk in experience with Virgin nails with a much needed pedicure it was unbeknownst to me I would have been better off researching a much more experienced salon with a group of professional women that know what they’re doing. I was ripped off… completely neglected communication or lack thereof although these women are completely in tune with what they want to do with you for the right amount of money they think they should take from you. Why do I say this because she kept writing out a written receipt that differed from the menu prices of the salon itself as well as wanting to charge me for Design we ran out of time for because she would do it in the next couple of weeks. This is going to be not just two and a half hours wasted to the fullest extent but also an uncomfortable going back there with half my nails on half my nails off jagged uneven overcoating to them I’m sure that I don’t want them to fix anything I need my refund to go get my job done elsewhere. The good thing about this review is it’s going to be short and sweet after this I have pictures and I only pray that these women who called themselves professionals give me a refund in full with a big smile on their face.
The first lady was frustrated got up away from me because my hands hurt from the way she was grinding the nail file back and forth without putting pressure on my fingertips and I kept asking her nicely to put pressure on my fingertips so that it wouldn’t hurt so bad she rolled her eyes and got up and another older lady came and started to take over immediately I knew I was in trouble because I asked repeatedly for a manicure before I got acrylics put on my nails because my nail beds are awful which I never got and was charged for the??? Wtf I ask you this does a full set with cuticle push back shellac paint having to be redone because she sprayed acetone on them before they were ready multiple times rubbing lotion on my hands after I refused it because I wanted my manicure before my nails are on my hands and the lady that had originally gotten up from me frustrated because she was hurting me gave me a 10 minute shoulder rub and no Design on my nails because I refuse to because of how many mess ups there were and how much she was already writing down she was trying to charge me and which totaled out to be some on $ 91 and I gave them a hundred they never gave me change however I did receive a Polish because they didn’t want to take the Design they never did off of the receipt they made up today is just one day after here or what my nails look like. Never go to this place I should be shut down and every license should be checked I mean seriously I’m disgusted

I’ve been here four times. I want to like this place, because it’s just a block away from where I live, but unfortunately I just can’t go there anymore. This last time, the pedicure was fine, but my manicure (including a fill) was terrible. Sloppy polish application, uneven nails, and she cut me four times. At the end, they kept insisting I pay them the full amount even though I was still bleeding. Needless to say, I won’t be coming back.

This place is fantastic. I came all the way from Northgate to try this place. Got eye brow wax, & a mani/​pedi (they had an early bird happy hour deal). They gave additional massage for $ 1/​min but got a free shoulder massage during the mani. I will most definitely be coming back!

Tammy is just the best. She is patient and does a great job for a very reasonable price

If you’re ever in the hurry to get your nails done /​waxing /​or want to check out a new place that offers happy hours, I recommend checking out this place. Located in Belltown and next to Biscuit Bitch, this is a pretty small and cozy shop. Service here is quick and efficient and the staff are pretty friendly people. I came here on a whim and managed to get in for a nice manicure + pedicure. Normally, I don’t take too much time in taking care of my nails and such but my nail stylist was a pro at making everything look pretty. The pedicure was nice and smooth, and I really like the fact at the carefulness that was taken towards a couple of my toes that didn’t have a nail on (due to a hiking incident). As for the finger nails, my stylist did a nice job at keeping everything even.
For the paint job, I was pretty satisfied at how everything turned out. I did ask for a slightly complicated mix of colors to rep my Seahawks fan side and luckily, my stylist was kind enough to oblige my wishes. She also gave a pretty good recommendation on what to do for my toe nails, which is a hot pink color with some cute flower designs. If you’re pressed for time, I recommend getting the stamps for the nail designs. If you want something more of a personal touch, like letting the stylist pick and draw the nail art, be prepared to wait a bit since that takes a bit more effort and time.
When the place wasn’t too busy, the stylists do display a great amount of time and effort in making your nails look great. However, once things start picking up, you can definitely feel the urgency of a couple of stylists trying to finish up quickly to serve other customers. Despite feeling a little rushed, this didn’t compromise too much of the quality. I haven’t checked out the other services but this place does offer reasonable prices for things like: waxing, facials, massages and such. So in all, this one stop (for a lot of services) is a good spot to stop by if you’re in the area.

Regular manicure & pedicure are fine. But the nail paint job done is pretty bad, the paint is too thick & it chipped after 2 days!

So far my favorite place to get my nails done for cheap in Seattle! The staff is very nice and always want to make sure you’re comfortable and happy. I love getting my eyebrows done there too! This was the place where I got my eyebrows first waxed ever, and they helped me discover my natural eyebrow shape that best fit my face. I’ll be back for happy hour!

Love this place! Comfy massage chairs and well staffed so they can squeeze you in. Quality work.

As I come to visit Seattle and stayed at Belltown Inn, I needed to get my nails done and luckily there was a nail shop two doors down from the Inn. I did not make an appointment but just as a walk in. I waited for about 5 mins and was taken to just get a manicure. Diep did my nails and she did a fantastic job. She cleaned and cut my cuticles and painted them. She did a great job! It was super cheap to. I believe I paid a total of $ 20 and that was with tip. I am generally a good tipper when it comes to having these type of services since I rarely treat myself to these types of things. Would come back if I was in the area and needed my nails done!

Stopped in for a quick manicure when I had half an hour to kill in the area. My guy was not quick at all but I didn’t particularly mind since I had the time. He was very gentle with my cuticles and painted close to the sides with the polish (which I appreciated as naked side nail gap is usually my biggest issue with professional manicures). However, he didn’t trim my cuticles very closely and failed to seal the ends of my nails with polish. So just 2 days later, I have several chipped nails. Overall a mediocre manicure at an average price.

I actually really liked this place. I was visiting from out of town and wanted to get my nails done, so I consulted Unilocal for a good cheap place. I only ended up going here because another place in the area with better reviews (perfection nails?) was closed… even though they were supposed to be open… But anyway, perfectly happy I found this place. I was the only person there (10:30am on a Monday, so not that weird to me) so I had my toes and fingers done at the same time. I got just a standard mani pedi. It was happy hour (10am-​2pm) so it came to $ 32. Normal price is $ 35 so still good. My nails were done well and they had the new OPI colors. Win! Would definitely go here again.

I’ve been to this place three times. The first time I was happy with my shellac manicure and it lasted three weeks. The second time, my shellac manicure started peeling after a week. The third time, I decided to get a regular manicure. However, the nail technician was too impatient to wait for the acetone to soften the shellac and instead used a nail file to try to file the shellac off my nails, completely destroying them in the process. I just removed the polish and they are completely shredded and look awful. I will never go back.

Great neighborhood spot with a happy hour menu from 10am-​2pm! Mani and Spa Pedicure with gel on my toes only $ 43 total! The ladies are great and they warm the lotion and towels. Very relaxing and gorgeous paint job.

When they are busy, they are fast, all about getting people in and out. Luckily I come after work and they always do a good job, I get gel, have had mani, s pedi’s, and eyebrows done. Service is good, place is clean, and for the price, it’s not bad!

I bumped this down to a one star due to this happening on SEVERAL occasions. They CONSTANTLY try to steal my nail polish! The last time I had enough so I will NOT be going back there I already found a new place (Tina’s Nail Salon) close by.
She also tried to do the trendy nails on me but FAILED and charged me extra for it. I have been in Seattle for about a year and have been going here on and off since that time but there are TOO many nail salons in Belltown for me to constantly be dealing with these people trying to STEAL my polish they go so far as to put it on their rack and when I ask for it back they are stupid. I don’t give my money to people who steal.
Stay clear if your bringing your own polish.

Quick… Painless and great!!! Lily knows what she is doing… I loved the place, the massage chair… The whole thing… !!! My new place for pedis at Seattle!!!

They don’t talk much which I like. I like they always ask if you are happy with what they are doing. Price is decent.
At the end they are slightly to overly pushy with tip.
I’ve been 5 times and always walk out happy.
