I used to go to concept nails prior to Covid, but I recently decided to give them another chance because it's close to my house. I HAD fairly long nails with dipping powder. I went in last weekend to get a mani pedi. The lady started off by sanding down the top coat, then she kept going all the way down to my nail bed I kept telling her it was hot and the other nail techs around kept looking with concern but never said anything. Normally they just sand the top coat off so they can soak it, but she was being careless and halfway through realized they were my real nails, the other technicians kept saying wow your nails are so long and beautiful, but I guess she didn't care or wasn't paying attention, she ended up sanding off the tip to my middle finger. At this point I'm pissed because it's clear she's sanded the top of my nail bed. She then told me to put my fingers in a hot ass bowl with barley any remover in it but overflowing with so much hot water in the bottom bowl the owner had to come over and empty some out, she kept telling me to rub my nails on the cotton ball, but my nails felt so fragile after all her sanding I was was very reluctant to manipulate them too much. Oh I forgot to mention I asked her point blank is she was sanding my nails and she kept saying no. My nails were so fragile I asked to to just cut them halfway down, I knew they stood no chance. During my pedicure she was in such a rush she forgot the scrub (I picked a pedicure that included this) she did a terrible massage with wet watery lotion it was like getting a massage with milk. I also had gel on my toes she did not soak it off she just sanded the paint totally off and now my toenails are brittle as hell. During my pedicure she put a warm towel on my feet but then laid it on my legs and just left it there to be a cold wet rag. The worst pedicure of my life! Anyway, so back to my nails, I got dipping powder again I ask for them to be square because they were so short now, this woman could not file a square to save her life which I guess is why she kept trying to convince me to get square round, my middle finger was shaped like Gumby I ended up fixing it myself at home. So now I've only had my nails done a week and I've had 3 nails break, this never happens to me, I usually wear my natural nails very long I have for most of my adult life and I'm super careful, but because my nails are so fragile they are cracking. I also have several hangnails I'm sure that's from the sanding and how she did the soaking. Oh I forgot the powder itself is bumpy, but tbh that's the least of my concerns it's really the fact that she did so much damage to my nails I'll basically have to wear them short until they grow completely out. Sorry concept nails I normally wouldn't hold one bad experiences against a place, but there were several other nail technicians who knew she was rushing being chaotic and cutting corners and they didn't say anything!
I have known the nail person at Concept Nail for many years. Kim used to be kind and patient. When I went in to show her what happened to the gel she did on my nails, she wanted to place blame on me and I told it I wasn't to blame. She rudely told me to stop talking and said fine it was her fault. Over a week later, 3 other nails started to peel and the wet paint under the gel got all over the grip of my golf club and on a pair of pants. I went back and said remove the gel. She did and repainted my nails, however, she suggested I go to a different nail stylist. She also charged me $13 to repaint. I shouldn't have been charged at all. What nerve and so unprofessional. I really liked Kim, but she is so incredibly rude and won't own up to her own mistakes. Plus she is quick and in a hurry to get you out, therefore, nails do not survive well. They push gel but they don't know how to apply it. In all my years of having my nails done including gel - never have I ever been treated so unprofessionally and disrespectfully. I highly recommend - keep driving by. Don't stop at this Concept Nails location.
I used to come here all the time before I moved & I was highly satisfied... but I went this past weekend while I was in the area visiting and I have three separate fingers that are cut up at the cuticles. I don't know if someone was just having an off day but the amount I paid for the service I got was not worth it. They just were not gentle with me. I'm not saying do or do not go here.. but if you do, make sure you say ow if they even give you the slightest bit of pain. I thought it was just a quick nip but end up digging into my cuticles. Never going back.
I was at the salon for almost 2 hrs and it wasn't worth the two hours or the $95. They were pushy about getting gel when I just wanted regular polish. Their regular pedicure only includes polishing and cutting down your nails for $30! My nails have look horrible. They are so thin they will probably break in a day . My thumbs are significantly different lengths. There is product all over my fingers. The employees were cold and pushy about getting gel. Wanted to try a new salon closer to home and I regret it.
I choose the regular pedicure and manicure done by Christine, she moved quickly, but she didn't make me feel uncomfortable. I polish selection left a lot to be desired, they had a lot of off brands, as I sampled the polishes the majority were "watered down" with acetone, which diminishes the quality of a lasting manicure. $30, for a mani and pedi is great, but the polish is lifting less then 24 hours after my manicure.
I've been coming here every 2 weeks for well over a year. I've had nothing but great service! Kim does my nails exclusively, but all of the techs are great! I've never had any issues, and I watch them take people when they are about to close countless times. Prices are average for the area. I pay $40 for a fill and I get the spa pedicure ($43), but they have pedicures as cheap as $15.
I've been going to this place for gel manicures and pedicures for awhile but never got a chance to write a review. I've noticed that whenever I get my nails done here they last longer and never chip prematurely. The people here are very nice and efficient as well. I go to a lot of nail salons but this one is my favorite. I live in McLean but always come here when I visit my parents in Woodbridge. 5 stars.
I've been going here for about a year, and I see Cindy (I'm very particular about my nails and eyebrows and will not see anyone else), and she is amazing. I've had pretty much ever service done, and I've never had a bad experience. The shop is very clean and the staff know many customers by name, which is a great sign.
I only went here because my normal tech at a completely different place was booked. I went there to get a pedicure and fill in w/ a nail repair. Which by the way was supposed to be 2 nails repaired. One of my nails that broke, I glued back on. Instead of taking the nail that I glued on off, she just continued covering over it. Before we started, I told the lady that my nails are ombré pink, then transitions to white and the top. I asked her multiple times would she be able to fill them in. Of course she stated yes. Come to find out, they couldn't do it. Also, my cuticles kept getting dinged while she was buffing my nails. My nails look like a kindergartner did them. I have polish on my skin, the nails aren't even, and I have bubbles forming on the polish. I will not be going back

I am really disappointed about the service. The tech cut me deeply. I had to pull my foot back. She said she did not cut me, that it was an ingrown nail. I know that I do not get ingrown and told her she cut me. She continued to deny it. My toe continued to bleed for over an hour. The paint was also horrible. I paid $48.00 plus tip for this horrible service. read more

I've been going to concept nails since I moved to the Lake Ridge Area. I was so fortunate when I found a salon across the street and especially when I met Cindy! Almost 4 years later and I'm finally getting around to making a review about this salon and the great people who work there, especially my favorite nail tech...Cindy. I hate to even mention her name because it will make it even harder for me to now get an appointment BUT when I tell you she is a total sweetheart and a perfectionist, I'm serious. Many times she's stayed well beyond closing hours to ensure my nails stay fly and I'm happy. For this, I'm grateful and love how she's always up for the challenges I present her with. I'll be very sad to leave her when I move but stop searching for nail techs and go see her!!! #frankthefrog read more

I am not happy about this set at all. So unhappy that I'm writing this in the parking lot right after I finished. For starters, they are not clear at all. I called and had one man telling me they take everything off and start over for liquid gel and they charge $45 for a brand new set. I've been searching for a new nail tech so I said why not and went in. Lee then tells me its $45 for a liquid gel refill. I'm sitting in the car looking through their colors which suck (they don't have a good selection at all) then she tells me the powder gel refill is $40 and the repair for a nail was $3 so it's $45¿?. She then corrected herself to $43, but I was still confused since the man on the phone told me powder gel refill was $35. At that point it was too late so I just kept on with the process knowing I wouldn't come back. I actually really hate this sets it's way too bulky for my liking and not crispy enough. She didn't shape all of them nicely either nor did she offer me any refreshments. The atmosphere was not relaxing or updated at all so I won't know what it's so expensive for considering they don't even use OPI or an elite polish brand. Ugh. It's so hard finding a great nail tech in Woodbridge. Yet another disappointment. On to the next one. read more

I love Concept Nail so much that I have driven all the way from Maryland and Alexandria to patronize them. They sanitize their equipment after each client/use. The staff take their time to make sure the service is on point and you leave happy. I get my nails done at Concept Nail nail every 3 weeks and also get waxing and lashes as needed. Check out my gel polish and design by Cindy! She is the best, so make sure to call and schedule an appt for the spring or summer ladies and gents! read more
