Blush Nail Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Victoria, British Columbia

Best nail salon I've ever been to! Kim was lovely, and we had great conversation! Also, I swear my gel polish nails are indestructible, because I've slammed my finger in a cupboard by accident and there's not a scratch on em. I've been to other salons where if I did that, they'd fall right off! I love that the gel polish they use is free of harmful ingredients, and my nails didn't need to be filed aggressively for the polish to stick. This is because the polish is made with seaweed, Kim told me. The decor is so pretty! Very modern, metallic touches, bright white interior and little succulents. The pedicure chairs look so luxurious, I'll have to go get one sometime! They have such good prices here! 20 for gel polish, and 40 for a full manicure with hand massage, hot towel, soak, etc. Again, other salons charge a lot more -just- for gel polish, so Blush has everywhere else beat. It was such a wonderful ending to my day. read more

Blush Nail Spa - Such a cute colour "mousse" - Nail Salons Near Me - Victoria, British Columbia

The service is great and timely. The place is cute and modern (ambience matters to me) and the massage chair is bomb. The place is supposed to use non toxic nail polish so it is pricey but if you go 5 times they have a discount card that gives you 15% off. I got a shellac pedi which I can usually get for $35 but this one costed $70. Knocked off a star for the price and because they reuse the nail filers which isn't hygienic. read more

Blush Nail Spa - 2 weeks in, no chips yet. - Nail Salons Near Me - Victoria, British Columbia

Worst experience for a pedicure, booked online and showed up said one booking was for 15mins after so I came back to stick my feet in tub for 25 mins while water gets cold and jets turn off then the woman tells us that I have to wait for them to finish my friend to do me so my friend will now have to wait also. Horrible customer service, I will never come back and do not recommend!!!! Really expensive for such a mediocre place. read more

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING. I am so picky about my nails (I get biogel about once every 3-4 weeks), but Kim did such a wonderful job. The almond shape was perfect, and the nails lasted almost 5 weeks with no breakage or even lifting!! The interior of the salon is lovely too, and it has a really down-to-earth vibe. Every time I'm in Victoria, I'm going to go to this salon. Have yet to find a comparable alternative in Vancouver! read more

The first couple times I went this place was great. After a couple more times, I noticed its very loud and obnoxious, not professional, and the atmosphere inside is super loud. What really upset me was the receptionist made a mistake and didn't reschedule my original appointment properly, and so when the day came for my appointment, I called to confirm because I didn't get a text message reminder, and the receptionist told me I missed my appointment (the original appointment) and I explained that I spoke to her a rescheduled it for the next day. All she could say to me was "unfortunately we are fully booked today...", she didn't even sound sorry, and the worst part was that she just stopped talking on the phone and ignoring what I was saying, so I ended up hanging up. Extremely unprofessional and an awful experience, which is too bad because they do a good job, but I would rather take my business somewhere where they respect their customers. read more

Got a manicure with gel polish application from Blush. Kim did a superb job. She helped me pick out a color that best suits me and was very pleasant to talk to while getting my nails done. Kim also works very fast and has very steady hands. My nails are so pretty and my hands are feeling ultra soft after my visit today. read more

BE ON TIME OR THEY'LL CALL THE COPS I know this is a bit of a long read, but trust me it's worth it because it ends in the police being called. I was really excited to come here with my two friends. We had heard great things about this place and booked in advance. What I'm about to share with you might change your mind about coming here... The first thing that alerted me about something being off was when I called to book our three appointments. I was to get a full manicure, and my two friends were just getting shellac without manicure. They asked for a $100 deposit, which I thought was pretty weird considering that our three services only amounted to about $70. I pointed this out, but they told me that it was policy. At this point I said I wasn't comfortable and that was that. I got a call back a few days later from the salon asking if I was still interested in keeping the appointment. I said I was, but was still not comfortable with paying a hefty deposit. The employee said this was fine, and they could forgo the deposit and come anyway. Great! I arrived to the appointment on time, but my friends got stuck in traffic and had trouble parking. I updated the receptionist on their status who didn't seem bothered at the time. When they arrived they sat down and a few minutes later the receptionist abruptly told them their services were cancelled and they would rebook. I was put off by her quick change of demeanour, not apologetic approach and curt communication. Because I had just begun my manicure service I politely asked the nail technician if she thought there was time for them to complete a short service for my friends. She was polite and understanding, but came back and said it was unfortunately not possible according to the receptionist. I asked her if it would trouble her at all if I stopped my service at that point because the goal was to have time to catch up with my friends during the manicure. She was kind, polite and understanding - I gave her a tip and apologized. The receptionist was abrupt and told me I owed $25 (full manicure is $30). I stated that I was disappointed with the customer service overall and did not agree with paying the full fee. They asked me to return in one hour. Not exactly convenient. When I returned the manager was curt and abrupt in her communication. She stated plainly that my friends were 18 minutes late and they are far too busy to accommodate their late arrival. She said if I saw her calendar I would understand that their is only 20 minutes for shellac and 30 for manicures. I explained that I was sorry for the inconvenience and apologized. To be honest, I very much understand the inconvenience of being late and if she had handled it differently I would paid the fee willingly. She refuted every statement I made. In the end we agreed that we would leave it, and move on. We said goodbye and left. I was met at my car by a security guard who told me that the store was calling the police. He was kind and caring and apologized but said they would not budge. He returned to the store and then came back to my car again and stated again they believed I had an outstanding balance and they would be calling the police to address the issue. I was scared to re-enter the store. My friends returned to the store and refused to pay the full fee. The manager stated that 50% of the fee is for the technician and 50% is for the spa. They agreed to pay the technician fee to respect her time but no payment would be paid to the spa. The manager stated the spa needed to be paid. We refused and paid the 50% fee. I am deeply disturbed by their approach to customer service and am left feeling confused and worried for their ability to manage conflict. I am sorry I was late, but I am a calm, polite and respectful individual and I found it upsetting to be met by a security guard and the threat of a police officer over a contentious $20 fee. Be on time, or they will call the cops. read more
