This is a long overdue review, but I had to leave one for the service I had here. I called to make an appointment with Christina, having not been here before. She let me know she was booked out for quite a while, but upon hearing I needed my nails done at the last minute for my upcoming wedding, she rearranged her schedule to accommodate me. It was so incredibly sweet! I loved getting to know Christina. She was very kind and genuine. I don't get my nails done often, but I will return to get my nails done by her. She did a fantastic job on my gel mani-pedi and even helped me pick the perfect bridal color. I can't recommend this place enough!

Best manicure I've had in a long time! Christina really is the best, she got me in for an appointment the same day and was fast and perfect. Great COVID precautions, extra clean and safe :)

Amazing pedicure and absolutely fell in love with Christina! I normally feel so awkward at hair/nail salons - but felt right at home at Admiral and am already looking forward to going back 1000% would recommend!

These nails are magic

Let me just start by saying...SO MUCH YES!!!! Absolutely amazing experience. Great conversation, great advice, good company and all around fantastic time. Not to mention that my nails are BOMB. She gave me the best gel manicure ever.

Christina is gem of a person & skilled at what she does! She lifted my spirits on my pedicure pamper day. I love the way my toes came out . A new favorite salon.

My nails have never been so good! I've been going to Admiral nail salon for over a year. The prices are great, our conversations are always fun and it's peaceful and quiet. As a Salon owner myself, I'm totally impressed with Christina. She is very detail oriented, and truly cares about each person in her chair. I've sent almost 5 of my clients to see her and they LOVE her too. Do yourself a favor and go see Christina!!! She tends to book out about a week so don't be surprised if she can't get you right away.

Christina is an absolute angel! She stayed late past her closing time to do my acrylics and was an absolute pleasure. The ambiance was like a corner salon in Paris with the decor and loved the soft jazz music. This was the best experience I've ever had at a nail salon. Christina has earned my loyalty for life

What a wonderful experience I had at this salon. My first time here and the owner (Christina) made me feel so welcomed and was very accommodating. She goes by appointments only, and she makes sure to take her time and does a wonderful job. Cleanliness is huge for me. The nail job can even be average so long as the salon is sanitary. Luckily at this salon you get both: cleanliness and a fantastic set of nails. This was my first mani/pedi experience in Seattle since moving and I'm glad to say I've found my new spot!

I went to Admiral Nail Salon for the first time today and I am very impressed! My nails turned out great, the place was very clean and quiet. It was such a nice experience! Thank you, Christina. I will definitely be back!

I don't know if d white lady that got serviced before me had an appointment but I called to ask if they were not busy at 2 pm. N d lady on d phone just said come in, ul be done in time to board ur bus at 3pm to go to work at 4 pm. I came wid my daughter who they took first n me around 2:45pm. Someone did my nails n was gonna jump to another customer n I said, what about my mani/pedi n facial waxing? So she pointed to a real skinny rude Vietnamese lady who just did her robotic performance, finishing my mani n full facial waxing without smiling or even looking at me. But get this, when I started to pay n I put out my calculator to do a custom tip, "she pointed to d computer that says twenty percent!!" I said I want to use my calculator n tipped her only 10%. She did not even smile or say thank u but "hurriedly attended to three guys for their manicure!!" Speaking of NO PEOPLE SKILLS this is d place to go to, if u want a robotic treatment!!!

Most attentive and thorough nail salon I've ever been to! Felt very comfortable and taken care of…read more The ladies took their time and made sure I was happy every step of the way. Highly recommend!

Came in for the first time as a walk in. I wanted a gel polish manicure. The owner said to sit down…read moreand she would start the acetone soak. She barely filed the gel to allow the acetone to get in, then had me wait for a bit with the little plastic finger covers on. I was then told to pick my color, with the funky plastic things on, and if I needed to open the bottles (as some of them you couldn't actually tell what the color was from the outside of the bottle) to see the color I could, which made it hard to do. She told me that I would have to pay $10 extra to remove the current gel since they weren't the ones to do it originally. Not really sure why that makes a difference since gel is gel and if they had done the application it would have been the same process. I was told the next time I came in it would only be $30, since she knew they were the ones to apply it. After a little while more of sitting, two other customers came in and took up her attention. Then one of the other techs started to try to scrape the gel off, but it wasn't really budging, so back to soaking in acetone with the plastic covers. She then got pulled into working with the other customers, and I was told to move stations to a third tech. She did a mediocre job, the sidewalls and cuticles have gel on them and are sloppy even after she cleaned the color up with acetone, and you can see where the gel thickness and color is a little uneven in spots. I didn't notice this at first as I didn't have my glasses on. When I got home I also noticed a couple spots that looked a little scuffed and matte where the topcoat wasn't applied correctly or didn't cure properly. Overall, while the prices are better than most of the other salons in the area, my experience wasn't great and I will not be returning.

I'm so glad I found this place! I treated myself to a head spa (thanks Groupon) and a mani/pedi…read more The mani/pedi was so relaxing and came with the best leg, neck, and shoulder massage - and delicious Vietnamese coffee! The head spa was equally relaxing, included a mini facial and back massage, and was in a separate space from the nail salon that's very quiet. The owner was also very friendly and chatted with me after my services.

I've been coming here since 2022, so at this point I have a complicated but mostly affectionate…read morerelationship with this place. What has kept me coming back all these years is the nail techs. I've accumulated my favorites, and a lot of them feel less like people providing a service and more like familiar neighborhood aunties/friends I haven't seen in a while. They will ooh and aah over whatever I happen to show up wearing, whether I'm actually dressed up or have rolled in looking hobo chic in sweats. New Hair color, fading hair color, eyeliner, eyeshadow, jewelry that is expensive or absolutely not expensive... somebody will notice it and hype me up. They also have no problem side-eyeing me when I disappear for weeks and eventually return with nails or toes that are WELL beyond their maintenance date. I get scolded for neglecting them, give my excuses about traveling, being busy or simply being too lazy/burnt out to care, and receive the appropriate sympathetic nods mixed with disappointment. Then we carry on. That familiarity is honestly one of my favorite things about coming here. Quality can depend quite a bit on which tech you get, though, especially for Gel-X and nail art. After this many years I know whose work suits me and who I prefer to book with. I've had some beautiful sets here that (I mocked up the design & bring a visual with me) strangers have literally stopped me to compliment, but I've also had sets with premature lifting and recently had a Gel-X extension pop completely off in under five days. So for anything more involved, I recommend finding a tech whose work you like and booking with them specifically. The owner and I are decidedly not each other's cup of tea, and after four years I generally prefer coming at times when she isn't there. I'll leave it at that. My affection for this place has always been much more about the techs(staff) themselves. So no, it isn't a salon I'd describe as flawless or perfectly consistent. But there are women here I genuinely adore seeing, they've done some wonderfully ridiculous colorful nails for me over the years, and there's something lovely about walking into your neighborhood nail salon after disappearing for a while and immediately being greeted with, essentially, "WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? I missed you!! And look at your nails!"

I got highlights and a trim from Jessica yesterday. She was congenial and attentive as a stylist. I…read morecan tell she likes to work with people, which is always a plus. I was drowsy, so she got me a cup of jasmine green tea. While I sat there, I got to enjoy the comings and goings on the salon. Regulars trickled in for cuts and conversation. I got to see three children get their hair cut in that time frame. All of them seemed comfortable in the hands of their stylist - and they were all eagerly anticipating the complimentary treats that followed. Older clients came in and joked about how long they'd been coming to the salon and how old they were now as the stylist reassured them that they had the hair of a 20 year old. I was amused by the authenticity of their exchange and the shared commitment to the good natured exaggerations. A couple even came in to bring Tram a care package while I was glued to my chair accumulating my metallic sheen. I happened to overhear that she was sick. While there, the man got a trim because why not? He was at their neighborhood joint. Vibe check: A+. I would sit here for hours again to bask in the rarity of a thriving local business with a loyal, friendly clientele. It was like peeking into a whole new story with which I had no connection, like watching a sitcom - but none of the characters were a-holes. After foiling up, I went next door to get a pedicure while I waited for my hair to process. The woman who gave me that service - sorry, I forgot her name, but she has a bob haircut - was kind and assuaged my anxiety about my unshaven legs. She asked me "why should we have to always keep shaven? Men don't". Valid point. Plus, she said that people often shave before coming in and the pedicure process can actually can irritate their skin. Good to know. The pedicure was great. They talked me into getting my nails buffed and a simple shoulder massage as well. That wasn't the best service, to be honest (it was not the same woman who gave me the pedicure). I know they were just hoping to upsell me because it was a slow day. I get that. I wish I hadn't paid so much for it, but that's ok. It was clearly a pamper day for me. Back to the hair salon side I went. Jessica toned, washed, blew dry, and styled my hair in a surprisingly short period of time - or maybe it just seemed that way since I'd been there so long. Her swift work didn't yield sloppy results though. My hair was smooth, slightly curled, and far more presentable than I usually appear. She asked me where I was going now that I looked so lovely. "I told my friend I would watch her dogs", I responded. "What?? You should be going out!" she said before acknowledging that I was right about the dogs not being left alone too long and joked about how pretty I would be for them. Then I paid and headed out, letting her get to the next client who walked in. The dogs did not seem to appreciate the hours and dollars that I had dedicated to grooming, by the way. Guess that's juhow it is when you're around creatures that are naturally cute.

It is owned and operated by the incredibly talented artist, Tina. I was able to walk in for a much-needed manicure and pedicure, and from the moment I sat down, I could feel the love and care she puts into her work. Tina is kind, gentle, patient, and truly passionate about what she does. She accepts appointments online or by phone, and if you're lucky, you might even be able to walk in like I did. I have officially found my new nail spot in Seattle! As you relax and get pampered, you're treated to one of the most beautiful views in the city. Looking out over Alki, you can watch the peaceful water, ferries, sailboats, and other boats come and go. It doesn't get much better than that. Whether you love long nails, short nails, gel, classic polish, or intricate nail art, Tina can do it all. Her creativity is amazing, and her selection of colors is incredible. No better view in Seattle. No better nail spa in Seattle. No better nail artist in Seattle. If you want beautiful nails and an experience that leaves you feeling cared for, treat yourself to Daisy Nails. Thank you, Tina! I'll definitely be back.
