I am from Iowa and in town this weekend visiting friends. Last minute we decided to get manicures and Daisy fit us in on a Saturday within the hour for three manicures. While we had to be split up due to the layout of the salon, separately we all had really nice experiences! We all felt our nail technicians were high skilled with good attention to detail. Personally, I bite my nails pretty badly so I had difficult nails to work with. I opted for acrylics for this reason. The shape and length were exactly how I asked for and she really made them look natural on my hands. I am beyond pleased, this is better than any manicure I've had back in my home town. My friends that live here will definitely be back and so will I when I'm visiting again!! Prices were also very fair. They only accept tips in cash however so be sure to bring some cash! read more

**This review is for my nail tech, Mike** Mike came highly recommended from a few friends. I have been attending another salon, but became unhappy as my nails started chipping faster than normal. I made an appointment with Mike on a Saturday morning. The shop opens @ 10 and it was already busy at the pedicure area. I was given the color wheel option prior to sitting at the nail station. I was highly disappointed in the small options. I am used to hundreds of colors, not 30. At last, I picked a neutral tone for Summer and was led to Mike's station. His area was clean and looked like a usual station. The entire salon is very small, so you are kind of on top of the next person. Mike, doesn't speak great English, but he tries his best to make small talk. The entire time he had a smile on his face. My nails: I must say this to be the BEST gel manicure I've ever had!!! The attention to detail on my cuticle, buffering, paint job, etc. I fell in love on my first visit. $26 and my hands looked like a million bucks. Manicure held up for two and a half weeks. Aside from the very small seating area and placement of the stations...I have been going back for the past 6 months. I recently tried another spot (review to come, once Yelp loads the location), and I regretted it the moment I sat down. Now I am headed to Mike for a redo. read more

I have been going to this salon for the past year. Overall, I love it. I have found a technician (Mike) who always does an excellent job. I get the gel polish manicures and pedis and his are the best! my nails last 2-3 weeks. I was pleased that they fixed a toenail for me the next day for free even though it was fault that I put shoes on when I got home. My only bad experience came from an older woman who works there, I dont think she puts as much effort into the service as some of the others i've seen, I dont know her name but I just make sure not to see her for my manicures. I make my appointment for nails every 2 weeks with Mike and have never had to wait more than 10 min. read more

Had to bring it down two stars because the owner charges fees if you pay by credit card which is ILLEGAL. Otherwise pedi service is great but I don't condone illegal practices. Previous review: Just got a great pedi from Quy who's super sweet and so thorough! Also gives a really relaxing massage! I'll be back! read more

I don't know why I keep coming back. I have been here a couple times and every time I come I make an appt way ahead of time and they always make me wait. Then they have attitude with me like it's my problem they're busy. I will never go back. Worst service ever!!!!! I will write reviews at every place I can find. Terrible. read more

Cathy did my full set and she is awesome. She didn't rush through any steps and was really nice about making sure she didn't hurt me. Listened to all my requests. I'm picky and finicky about my manicures and left satisfied. Full set is $25 plus tip. Their a.t.m. is only $1.25 to use. Tons of color options, and they have a lot of OPI, which I think is the mark of quality in a good nail place. Only complaint is there is a strong odor of acetone which is most likely because the shop is so small. read more

Daisy Nail - Nail Salons Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Love this place!!! After many disastrous nail attempts across the city, I have set up home here. I used to be flippant and last minute with my nails, but now I make appointments and only come here. I get gel powder, and one word for you; QUINN! She is a goddess when it comes to perfect the shape and color of my nails. Every time I love more then the last and I always get compliments!!! read more

I had a Horrible pedicure. It was rushed (15 mins tops) and she barely scrubbed my feet. Not going back again. Also the massage chairs weren't the beSt when it came to the selected options on the remote control. I decided to come here because I was in need of a pedicure for a last minute flight after missing my original appointment elsewhere. read more

This was seriously one of the best manicures I've ever had! Kim did my manicure and she was fantastic. Really attentive to trimming cuticles and avoiding the margins of the nail bed with the polish for a really clean finished product. She actually stayed a bit past closing to finish my mani, which I really appreciated. Complimentary soda and water for anything over $13, and paraffin dip included in the manicure. I got gel polish with glitter on top and the total was $30, which is totally reasonable. Location and parking situation are ideal, I like their extended hours, huge selection of colors and top coats for gel polish, and really attentive, meticulous, and friendly service. I've been on the hunt for the perfect manicure place for a while, and this one is it! read more

***I'm editing my review a few months later**** Although I'm written a great review since then I've found that their quality has gone down... Mike always falls asleep doing my nails the last couple of times I've been there. I can tell because the mechanical buffers stays in one spot or slides off... I'm looking for a new spot ----------------- I usually do gel nail polish with a manicure and always go to Mike. He is the best! His attention to detail is why I go to him every time. I always call ahead to make sure he has time for me though. He is always on point in his timing. For a pedicure I go with any of the ladies, they all do a really good job. The only reason I didn't put 5 stars is they don't always have the newest nail polish colors. It doesn't stop me from going there though. read more

I've been here many times; it's in a convenient location for me. The staff is not the friendliest but they're okay. Friends of mine love to go a place on Lake Street and I just can't handle the cleanliness level. I've felt comfortable enough to bring my sister-in-law and niece in for a mani-pedi and also Texan MOG and SOG for a friend's wedding. For some reason there's one tech - an older woman who just doesn't do it for me and for some reason I always seem to get her. She's nice enough and always compliments me but she just doesn't do that thorough or good of a job so I've been avoiding it for that reason. Plus, Spa Nails is now closer to my house so I would probably defer to them considering the quality is comparable and the staff at Spa nails seems friendlier (plus they have the hot stone massage as part of the pedicure). So even though the mani/pedi from Daisy lasts a day or 2 longer, I probably prefer Spa Nails. Both are fine, nothing spectacular but fine. read more

They do fine with nails. I get the basics and am satisfied. It's fine and they have good chairs. Here's my piece of advice: if they are running a wait and you are time-sensitive, don't just ask how long the wait is. They will tell you it's 10-15 minutes regardless. It cannot be trusted. Ask who is up next and what that person needs to finish before he/she can get to you. I understand, they don't want to turn away customers, but telling someone she has a 10-15 minute wait when they know damn well it will be 30+ is disrespectful. I've reached the conclusion that if I want to get my nails done in a time efficient manner, I just need to schedule an appointment at a salon/spa and pay the premium for getting in and out. read more

I've gone here a few times for manicures and pedicures. The staff is pleasant enough and they accept credit cards for charges over $10. Many salons at this price point won't take cards. The polish selection is terrible. These bottles are old, very well-used, mostly off-brand. Many polishes are actually mislabeled, which is unfortunate if you decide you want to buy a bottle online and it's not even close. I remember several obviously different polishes with the same color name sticker, and a pale pink labeled as "Absoutely Alice," which is a blue color from OPI's Alice in Wonderland collection from a few years ago. (Yes, I know this stuff.) My manicures don't hold up well in the days after I visit Daisy Nails. After cleanliness, the quality of the manicure afterward is the measure of a salon. Weird black bubbles formed within a day or two of my last one. read more

I have been coming here for about 5 years now and always see Mike. He is the best and I know this bc I have seen other techs there and was underwhelmed. There is another gentleman there as well, and I believe he does a great job too. Anyway, my pedicure stays on for 3-4 weeks and mike is very fast and efficient. Thank you!! read more

Possibly the worst manicure I've ever gotten. Should have known to leave right when I walked in. I did a lot of yelp research since I just moved to the uptown area and it seems like the going rate for regular manicures is $30 around here! Having just moved here from Chicago where the going rate is $20 at a nice salon and $15 at a cheaper one I wanted to find something better. After finding daisy nails based on reviews to be of decent value I decided to give it a try since I desperately needed a manicure and to remove my no chip before I start my new job Monday. I requested Mike as my technician based on other reviews but they totally ignored my request. After selecting an OPI shade from the wall of polishes that looked like they had been sitting there for years I started my manicure. I sat down with Mai, my technician, and she started removing my no chip (which they charged me an extra $5 for...I know a decent amount of salons do this but it still bugs me). I'm pretty sure there was a previous client's skin in the cuticle trimmers she used. Then I went to wash my hands and she automatically dipped my hands in the paraffin wax treatment. Nice touch but annoying that it's $2 extra and I did not ask for that. She painted my nails with the sticky old polish and I honestly probably could have done a better job. Then I sat down I have them dried and I noticed most of my nails were still ragged from a poor filing job! She attempted to fix them when I asked but basically my nails still look awful, jagged, and gunky. There goes $20 I should have spent elsewhere. Overall, the place was not clean, seemingly unsanitary and just not nice. I've never heard of a place that makes you return the paper flip flops and toe separators before leaving! I do not plan on using someone's second hand toe separators ever... Guess you get what you pay for but I am sill keeping my hopes up that I will find a good value salon soon! read more

Daisy Nail - Jagged and gunky nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Great place they are the best ! Quinn is my go to gal ! I got a few days people hooked on her services!

This place is so sketchy! First time I went, I asked for a gel mani and pedi, which is $70. I did not have cash on me, so I asked to tip on the card, and paid $77. Yesterday I went back for just a mani, which is $35. Again, did not have cash on me, but did not think it was a problem, since I've already tipped once on the card before. I asked to pay $40, and the lady refused, saying they don't accept tips with a credit card. When I told her I had tipped before on my card, she just replied "well, we don't accept it". I felt so confused, I just wanted to pay my $35 and leave. She takes my card, does her thing, and then I look at the receipt, it was $36. I asked her why she charged me more than $35 (and it's not about the extra dollar, I do not care, it's more about why charging me another price without telling me first). She responded "there is a fee of $1 when you pay with your card". Indeed, there is a sign inside saying "$2 fee when paying $40 or up". NOTHING about a $1 fee when paying $35??? What's this? Apparently there is a fee each time you pay, no matter the amount. Anyway, I do not recommend this place whatsoever. Very SKETCHY. read more

I'm not sure what happened when some of the other people that reviewed this place have gone, but this place is great, so great in fact that I currently come from Bloomington MN just to get my nails and toes done here. I am moving to Maplewood this month and will now be nearly 40 minutes away from Daisy Nails, however I will STILL be driving here 2 to 3 times a month because no place is better! They have the most diverse options that I have ever found, and trust me I've looked and been many places from Maple grove, Brooklyn Park, Minneapolis Bloomington and Saint Paul and for the price and options available it doesn't get better. where else can you get a mojito pedicure for 35 bucks?! The parking lot is small and the set up isn't the fanciest but the product delivery is well worth the minor set backs. Update- Still going still love them just wanted to add that since I completed this review gel color has become a huge deal...they have them...all of the colors your heart might desire are here!!!!! they also are constantly updating them I try to go in at least twice a month and there are always new color wheels for gel color when I arrive. read more

I just had a gel manicure done last night and I am beyond irritated. Anyone who has had gel nails knows that it is almost impossible to chip them, well I already have 3 chips!!!! Now this is my own fault, I have been before and they did a terrible job, butit is so close to my house! The woman there did such a thin coat of the gel that my nails still feel paper thin after taking the old gel off and I am sure they will continue to chip like crazy while I am on vacation this week...great. There are a million nail salons in the Minneapolis area, I would suggest you find another one, not here. read more

After reading some of the reviews, I was hesitant., but knew I had to see for myself. I have only been to one other salon in Roseville, and had to find a new one after moving. I found Mina. She's adorbs. I have a problem nail that fell out after dropping a bookshelf on it, and Mina gave me a perfect fake toe nail, and gel manicure. I am now able to wear flip flops w/o a band aid on my toe. !!! She was very pleasant, and did a great gel mani as well. I had her do buff nail with gel tips, and they turned out gorgeous. I don't do this terribly often, for monetary and lack of girlish indulgence desire, but Mina might change that. The only reason I would not give a perfect score was the equipment. The gel lights were so hot that she had to keep removing them and putting them back on my toes. Not sure if that is normal or not, but I have had gels done 2x before in Roseville, and I do not recall even feeling the lights. read more

There was literally 3 people working there and me and my friend waited for 25-30 min and then when I finally got seated the guy who was doing my nails was constantly checking his phone and not rly paying attention to my nails. I don't want to be too harsh and I'm never writing reviews but this just rly pissed me off. He then continued to FaceTime the girl he had been texting and put in his airpods. He also ended up putting 3 layers on one hand and 2 on the other so he was clearly not paying attention! read more

Been here a few times and the service varies by nail tech. I had a 30's aged woman on my last visit who must have been having a bad day because she was a GRUMP. She is NOT a good nail tech and did a slackers job giving me a mani & pedi. Lazy work, poor attitude and trying to force you to pay cash makes me give this a 2 star and that's generous. No a/c and very few were offered a beverage on a hot day. I was charged an extra $1.00 to use a credit card! It's 2017 people - that's just plain theft! I'm going back to a place that is way out of my neighborhood but treats me well and does a great job. read more

Very friendly and professional and prices are extremely fair! I've tried numerous salons and Mike is the best in the TC, hands down.

I won't ever come back here. You shouldn't either. I had a mani-pedi here back in 2008 or so but I didn't think much of it either way. I went in with a friend the other night, and we had an appointment at 7:15. We got there at 7:10. They had us pick a color and sit there and wait which was fine, we were early. There was a technician sitting there not working on anyone. at 7:15 someone told us it'd be 5 more minutes. at 7:25 someone told us it'd be five more minutes. Finally at 7:32, we decided to go. They closed at 8 and we didn't want some half-ass pedicure because they get out at 8. When I told them we were leaving and we'd call back, the salon went silent and someone said it'd be 5 more minutes. I thanked them and said we're good and going to go. PS - they have an ATM front and CENTER in the salon, which is very odd for a nail salon. I came to find out that if you use a card, they charge you more than if you use cash. I don't think that's legal. Anyway, do NOT go here if you want a good pedi. Go to Lena Nails on Nicollet. read more

Some of the staff are very good, some not so good, but the place is filthy! They reuse utensils without cleaning/sterilizing them. The work stations are dirty as are the floors. Another very annoying thing us that the staff chatter amongst themselves constantly and very loudly. It is not a relaxing experience at all. read more

Went for Manicure& Pedicure day before leaving for my son's wedding. Morning after Gel Manicure polish came off one finger. Due to timing of leaving town owner repaired one finger & told me to come back when I returned from out of town & she would redo manicure for free. Within one week Gel polish came off two more fingers. When I returned to have redone owner charged me $38.00 to redo hands & a color change only on my toes. Normal color change is $13. Owner did not stand behind redoing my manicure for free. read more

My gripe is not with the service here, I've always received great customer service! My problem is with their product. The last 3 times I've received a manicure and/or pedicure, the polish has either chipped or flaked the very same day or day after, and it hasn't mattered which brand I've chosen. Not sure what's going on there, but it's time to find another salon. read more

Pedicures need a step up overall. Ricky was distracted by TV and everytime the front door opened. Chewing away on gum checking out the mainly females walking to and fro or the football game. Mediocre "massage" at best , parafin wax was awkward and clumsily done and not left to dry even a little. Waste of extra money. read more

Sorry I have to take it down another notch. 3 days later the nail polish had completely fallen off two of my toes. What's up with that? I was gone for a work conference with only peep toes planned! read more

Came here with a friend, we both got the sea salt pedicure for $30 per person, and we were probably in the chair for about 15 minutes and they rushed us out, will not come back again for the value. read more

No thanks. I went in for a gel manicure and pedicure on a Saturday afternoon and by Thursday morning my fingernails were already cracking and chipping. They "guarantee" it will last 2-3 weeks before you have to get them filled. When I went in to get them fixed they said they were too busy and I had to come back later, terrible customer service for someone who's already paid you. Horrible quality manicure. Lazily done pedicure, nail polish still on my skin! Not worth the time or money. read more

I've had better. Good if you want a quick pedicure. But that's about it. A little help getting down from the chair is always appreciated or at least help me turn the dryer. I'm not well versed in pedicure dryers unfortunately. I think I'll stick with other nail salons in the future. read more

Awful customer service. Called ahead for apt. waited over an additional half hour past time only to have someone else helped before me who had come in at least 10 minutes after. Will not be back. read more

Pedis, massage chair, the Ryder Cup and great service gets daisy nail 5 stars. Husband and I are in town from TN for Vikings/Giants MNF game and on Sunday wanted to get pedicures. I tried 2-3 places nearby but either closed or no openings. I called daisy nail and they said come on over. We used uberx (another 5 star resource) and arrived at 2pm. We were immediately directed to chairs and had a nice foot soak while enjoying the Ryder cup. Service was outstanding. Definitely one of the best pedis I've had and for my husband, it was the absolute best. We both got the basic at $25 each but it was more like the ultra. Great leg massage and attn to detail. Highly recommend. It is ur typical busy nail salon so don't go if u want upscale spa service. Go if u want excellent service at a reasonable price but not on a tight schedule read more

As I went on a last-minute quest to find a place that would take my walk-in to do my pedicure, I was getting worried I was not going to be able to find a salon. Then, I saw this place and decided to give it a try. My first impression was a positive one, as I saw the place was clean and rather busy for barely opening at 10am. Then I sat in the chair to get my pedicure and was pitched the "Deluxe Pedicure". I figured, why not? I could hardly understand the pedicurist through her shyness and accent. So I was waiting for the moment my feet would get scrubbed... And it happened in a blink. My toenails were clipped crooked and my calves were rubbed for most of the 35 minutes I was there. I won't go back despite how nice the pedicurist was... Especially not at $36 for what was mediocre... I was quite disappointed. In fact, so disappointed I can't wait to let two weeks go by so as to not let it be a complete waste of money. I can't wait to go get a *real pedicure... Perhaps this is a lesson for me in setting up appointments. read more

Quick and efficient. Nothing great nothing bad. $37 for manicure with dip and pedicure. They have at least 5 workers in there, so I never make an appointment, and always sit right away. The gelish manicure is more expensive than other places though. read more

Best service ever! Mojito pedicure rocks! Mai, you made my day! Thanks so much!

I have gone to this place twice. The first time, I got a deluxe mani and stone pedi (which felt awesome). The paraffin wax was so hot on my feet I actually had to hype myself up to put my foot back in, it literally felt like my skin was melting off. My feet became swollen from it, but at least they were super soft (from the skin melting off). The polish lasted a decent amount of time so I would give it a 3.5/5. My feet were not buffed enough and I still had a lot of cuticle, but it at least looked like I got it done professionally although honestly I could have done the same myself. However, my second time I got a deluxe mani and European pedi. This was the worst mani and pedi I have gotten in my life. Within two days my cuticles were peeling all over my fingers from the way she cut them. Not to mention the fact that it was VERY painful when she pushed back my cuticles while pressing on my nails/ scraping with as much force as she possibly could. My feet are covered in dead skin flakes and are peeling, and look worse than before I went in. I had to ask her to refile my nails because they were so ridiculously crooked, it looked like a ten year old did it at a slumber party. She used the file made for acrylics so my edges were super rough and frayed, which was made even more apparent with the polish. She asked me three different times if I wanted them short when I repeated myself each time NO I'm trying to GROW THEM OUT. Not that it mattered after she was done butchering them. I immediately took the polish off the next day because it was all over my cuticles and skin and was super streaky, and I had to refile my nails. Oh, and the polish had already chipped the second day on. There was absolutely nothing good about this visit and was a complete waste of $60ish. I shouldn't have even tipped her but I feel bad since she was nice and I didn't realize most of the awfulness until later. If it wasn't for the first alright visit, I would give this place one star. Actually 1/2 a star, and that half for being nice looking on the inside. I heard that one of the guys there is good, but I would rather just find a new place than risk it. read more

Love this place!!! Great costumer service, reasonable prices, they always do a great job and a big variety of pedicures and nail polish colors!!! read more
