I got a really great gel mani and pedi from Dragon Nails 2 weeks ago. I am extremely pleased to report that all of the gel is still on every single finger and toe! They normally peal within a few days or a week for me, but not this time! My experience was wonderful. They are very carefully following the Covid guidelines, too which I really appreciated. Will definitely be going back soon to have them redone in a new color. read more

Used to be my go to salon when I lived here. Had some mediocre experiences just before I moved but I let it go. Came back in town for the holidays and stopped by to get my brows done. The worst I've had in over a decade. When I told Ms Kim they were different, she told me "sometimes the eyebrows are just different." I was appalled. Like you just sculpted them. And they are not even close. She attempted to fix them and only worked on it for less than 60 seconds and said she was done. Waste of time and money. And to make it seem like it wasnt her fault was disrespectful. read more

Dragon Nails - You can see the before and after. Different thickness. Different arches. Two different eyebrows. - Nail Salons Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

If you want a staph infection, come to this salon. I watched as the nail tech about to start my pedicure, went to grab USED utensils from another nail tech who was completing a pedicure on another client. My nail tech took the used utensils and rinsed them under water and used a dirty towel to dry them off. When I told them I wanted new utensils to be used they acted like I was speaking another language. No apology, no acknowledgment, they just got sterilized instruments and started the pedicure. Nothing at this nail salon is single use. They re use everything. I have gotten an infection before from a nail salon with said practices. The salon is filthy. It's ran by Kim who up-charges for each and every single thing. Definitely not a peaceful place to come get your nails done. I will not be back as the risk of infection was too high. read more

Dragon Nails - Dirty, filthy, unsanitary nail salon - Nail Salons Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Me and a friend walked in and were almost immediately seated to get our nails done. Kim was very kind and attentive in doing my acrylics. I was very happy with the service at the time. However, after the appointment I noticed several inconsistencies in the nails. My cuticles were hurting. Acrylic chipped off within the first week and the french doesn't touch the sides of my nails. There are also bubbles in the gel and somehow a hair got stuck in the gel while it cured? I was happy with them and they look good from far away but I may go to a nail tech instead of a salon next. read more

Dragon Nails - Acrylic french tip - Nail Salons Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

I never do this, but the quality at this nail salon was really lacking. I came with my mother and sisters before a funeral and we were left waiting for half an hour after our appointment time to receive pretty messy manicures for all four of us. Service was friendly but we expected our manicures to be tidy. I'm about to remove mine. read more

I made an appointment for my sister and I, we were right on time, greeted and immediately set up in massage chairs. The pedicures are a great value, with much attention to detail, and include a hot stone massage. The service was friendly and we did not feel rushed. We'll both be back! read more

They are really quick and convenient when I need a polish change, and pedicures the pricing is reasonable and I always tip the lady that does my toes it's close right by my home in Robbinsdale read more

I love this place. When you make an appointment you get in at that time no waiting around . And they do a great job and don't rush.

Terrible. Do not come here! First of all 80 percent of their polishes are drugstore brands (sinful colors, wet and wild, revlon). If you are paying to get your nails done I would expect salon polishes. Especially for their ridiculous prices. Whatever, I grabbed a polish from their short selection of OPI and sat in the massage chair. As I sat down, the male that was doing my pedicure cut the sides of nails with a cuticle nipper and started to shape my toenails into and almond shape? (I have square toenails) He hacked the sides of my toenails off. I became upset and asked him to please not cut/shape my nails anymore. This is where it gets worse. He used the foot file and sliced the side of my foot. While my foot was bleeding he put my foot BACK into the foot bath contaminating everything (foot bath did not have a liner). I told the manager and instead of her apologizing she said to me, "How do I know you didn't have that when you came in?". I called over the gentleman who gave me my pedicure and he denied that he even used a file on my foot. She even charged my mom for my pedicure and I had to come back and demand a refund. DO NOT COME HERE! read more

Dragon Nails - DO NOT COME HERE! They sliced the side of my foot! - Nail Salons Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Terrible experience because I brought my 3 year old daughter and I got accused of not watching her if I was get a pedicure done so they turned me away and said ppl don't watch their kids while getting service done after I stated my daughter well behaved and also the nail tech stated their a sign on the door that states and when you book a appointment which I don't see it either DONT COME HERE IF YOU HAVE TO BRING YOUR KIDS I WONT BE BACK AND I WILL BE TELLING EVERYBODY ABOUT THIS AS WELL IF YOU FIND A NEW SHOP IF YOU DONT HAVE A SITTER TO WATCH YOUR KIDS WHILE YOU GET YOUR NAILS DONE read more

probably the worst salon I've been to. Charge up the ass and cut me multiple times. Not to mention all my nails are different shapes and lengths. read more

My sister and I stopped in for a pedi. We were treated politely. The area wasn't spotless but not filthy. The floor was dirty. Our toes looked fine. The problem is that on the wall it was advertised $25 for a standard pedi. We were handed a baggy with a new foot scrubber and 2 more items and told the total was $27 plus tax. I said I didn't want the take home bag. She said yes, bring it with you next time! I told her I'm on vacation and wouldn't be back. I had to pay for something I didn't ask for or want. What a scam. There was nothing that would compel me to go back. I would normally tip $5 but I tipped less. read more

Take away the florescent lighting - and you'll feel like you are on a movie set. The strangest group of people come here - because it's cheap. We're talking $22 for a pedi cheap. The Luxury is only $35 - and that has oil, heated towels, and a salt scrub. Keep in mind, this place isn't fancy - But the service is great, and the people are kind. read more

Kim, I enjoy coming to your salon monthly, but I'm feeling it's just too expensive now. Over the last year, I've watched the price for a combined mani/pedi go from (pre-tip) $35, to $37, to $40 and now $42....that's a 20% hike in just a year. Thank you (and your staff) for always being so polite and accommodating, but I need to shop around for a better value. read more

This place is EASILY the worst nails experience I have ever encountered in my entire life!!!! The lady that did my nails ignored my requests, was too busy talking to her coworker and drowned me out, did all of the wrong colors, and said "what you worried about, your nails look, girl!" when I voiced my displeasure. Well, I asked for one thing, and got something else. I tried calling a manager and got no response. I will never, ever be back, and neither should you!!! read more

Not recommended! When I go into a professional salon I expect to see OPI, China Glaze, etc, high quality polishes. While I saw some of these brands, I also noticed that they had quite a selection of $1.99 nail polishes (Sinful Colors), a cheap department store brand. I was shocked to see this. Cheap nail polish does not last nearly as long as higher quality polishes. When I'm spending money on a service like this I expect professionalism. Clearly this business is all about money and not their clients. Cutting corners seems to be their specialty. A friend and I went in recently to get manis and pedis. I'm almost certain the woman who did my pedicure had never given a pedicure before. It was terrible. Then, the only nail polish they had in the color I needed was the cheap polish mentioned above. After this less than mediocre experience I decided to just pay for the pedicure and leave. I realized I could do my finger nails better than they could. When asked by employees why I wasn't getting the manicure I wanted I mentioned that I'm not a fan of cheap nail polish. They got extremely defensive and rude. I wouldn't recommend this salon to my worst enemy. Luckily there are a ton of nail salons around the twin cities. Avoid this one! read more

Just had a pedicure after 4 months Covid Stay-at-home. Sooo good! The new massage chairs are A+. They went above and beyond in their preventative Covid procedures. As an "essential" worker, I'm on my feet over 40hrs a week and Dragon Nails gave my feet the extra love that they needed. Life is stressful. GO! Unwind. It was amazing! read more

I've been coming to this nail establishment for over 10 years. Spend a pretty penny in here every other week. I was told today my child couldn't be in here. I understood he was being picked up as I was getting a pedicure, things happen. He wasn't picked up she canceled the rest of my appointment and Told me to reschedule. I politely told her Kim the owner how he was sitting and watching tv on my phone. she tried to go off and get loud. I told her I will never be disrespected and you will not yell at my like I'm a child. I told her God bless her business and left. Meanwhile my daughter is still getting her nails done, Kim is still talking mess. I will NEVER COME BACK after 10 years this is how you treat your loyal customers who feed your family?! I'm appalled. read more

I love this place! Finding a "nail salon home" is important to me and this is it! I'd never go anywhere else. The manager Kim is awesome - no matter who I see though, I always leave very happy and excited to show off my nails. They have a huge variety of brands and colors and always treat their customers respectfully. They also just renovated the salon and it looks lovely. It's obvious that they take great pride in their work and their environment. read more

There's a $1 charge for everything! You pay $1 for your file and buffer. To pay using a card is an extra $1. My polish is a little lumpy on some nails and 2 days later the polish on my thumb is cracking. I won't be back and wouldn't recommend this shop to anyone. read more

This place is clean, uses liners on tubs for pedicures. Charge you $1. For your own foam buffer and file, give in baggies to bring each time. I've been here several times with my granddaughter and retuned because I had been happy. This time Had a tech who was so rough I flinched in pain several times and told her but didn't change her routine. Probably won't return...so many other places to go where it's a nice relaxing thing rather than be tense and waiting for the pain. Wish I knew name of previous techs who were better. Sure wouldn't take that one again. read more

I am so angry. I've been growing my nails for well over a year. I decided to try a new nail salon. Big mistake dragon nails removed my gel polish with the file making my nails paperthin and now there are breaking off. I went in to tell someone about it and she just sat there looking Crazy! If you Love your real nails do not go there. ! read more

I felt rather hurried when I came for my pedicure. I prefer a woman, appointment for woman but got a man when 10 minutes late (my bad). He was kind of rough but not terrible. My normal spot in Scottsdale charges the same but their massage lasts as long as this entire service. Guess it's a good spot if you are in a hurry. read more

I have been coming to this nail shop for many years. The owner Kim goes above and beyond for her customers. She gives us gifts for holidays and children fruit snacks. Everyone there is very pleasant to deal with. Amber and Kevin are veterans in doing full sets and amazing pedicures . The owner does full wax services and eyelashes. I've been to several shops over the years but I like the atmosphere of this one the best. She buys only high quality products , offers a variety of nail powders , gel colors, and luxury pedicure options. Free wifi, plasma Tvs to watch. Very put together shop. Her prices are comparable to the area, which I feel is a great deal for the products she uses. You will need to buy your own nail files for 1.00. This is for your own safety. You don't want someone else's nail fungus on your hands or feet. People complain about this and it's crazy to me. I prefer a business that puts my safety first! Why would you want something that has been on someone's feet on your hands?! I travel from Maple Grove to my nail shop every two weeks.. Maybe I'll see you there ! read more

I came in Saturday evening march 7th 2020. I sat down first for a pedicure, i asked the woman why she applied such thick coats of polish she said that is how they did their process. I was already unhappy with the piggy pink color on my toes that shoes have been nude. My feet still feel rough as she applied the lotion to my feet while they were still wet. I was furious. I told the nail tech i wanted coffin shaped nude nails, first she kept messing up the length she tore of a few nails and reapplied them one of which she still extended with a bunch of acrylic. I told them i wanted my nails to have a thin natural look, when I was finished I had bricks on my finger tips. I wanted to cry I asked them to fix it and they said even if they did it would look the same after two coat of polish. I paid $110 for this experience. I woke up the next day and went to Luxer nail lounge in maple grove and they fixed everything I and I had to pay an additional $75 for the fix so I am very upset. Had the nail techs here will argue with you and lie like they did nothing wrong it's all about money. I do not recommend this salon at all. read more

Dragon Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Will never come back as the nail tech made me bleed. Also, they charge for a nail file, buffer, and to run your credit card.

At first I was in LOVE with this place! Don't get me wrong, they've done amazing on my nails each time. But the last time I went in, I feel like I was WAY over charged. I recently changed the shape of my nails from square to semi square. I was told that it would be $5 extra due to the shape of my nails, then when I asked for matte finish, I was told that was another $5. I've never heard of anyone getting charged extra for matte finish. Also when I asked my friend who referred me if they charge her extra for her shape, she said no she doesn't get charged her's are the pointy nails which I believe would take even more time than mine. Not happy with my last few visits to here. Will be looking for a new nail salon.. read more

Big fan of Kim. ... the owner. She is a licensed esthetician. First you will notice the shop is super clean and sanitary. It's the usual routine when you walk in. .. the mani/pedi stations pause as everyone checks your needs out when you walk in. Everyone is culturally pleasant as working through the strong Vietnamese dialect is always a little challenge. Kim and Henry are the easiest to understand... no worries... there is order, yet plenty of room for creativity. I usually just go just for the lashes that Kim exclusively puts on herself. For a mere fraction of the price out there compared to other places, this alone is worth the drive. Sometimes the lashes can make it 2 months without needing a redo. That's golden! I've sent many people her way for the high quality lashes she puts on. There is also a special back room you go to just for your face pampering event. High quality Good price Ohhhhhh .... the price we pay for beauty. .... it's doable here. read more

The lady that sits in that cubicle, thinks she is the owner is not nice. She would yelled at her employers. Whoever did my nail was not helpful. Didn't even clean my nails before doing my nails. read more

Love this place. Great service and good work every time. Henry is fantastic with the gel nails and the owner is great with customer service and lash extensions. Highly recommend! read more

Be sure to ask what the cost will be before you get your nails done. After the fact, I was told that yes, a powder gel fill is $25 but the nail polish I selected was "special" and added another $15. I consider that price gouging as nail polish is not that costly for 10 fingers. Rip-off. read more

I love this place! The shop is clean, the nail techs are super nice and the prices are cheap. They have nice, comfortable chairs for pedicures. If your're looking to get fancy designs (free style) you might not want to go here, they are not very good at unique and fancy designs but they can do basic designs and air brush. The location is great, you never have to worry about parking. Although its not upscale I still rate it a 5 because of the cleaniness, price, and quality of service. read more

I have only been going to this Nail Salon for a few months but I have been pleasantly pleased since the first visit. All the staff are very nice and friendly. I get my nails done by Henry (The Owner) he is GREAT!! Does a great job on my pedicure and nails (Gel, Acrylic, Fills). Defiantly worth the drive if you are in the market for a new Nail Tech!! read more

My mom is usually a regular here and the service is wonderful. I highly suggest to go to Amber if you want ballerina shaped acrylics.

I love going to this shop..They are very polite and pleasant. They sanitize the tubs right away. They always ask how you are or how your days was. The pedicures are the best and I've even recommended them to friends and my guy loves to go as well..Not just for women:) read more

The people are very nice in there and they always do their best to make sure you are happy with their service and product. Also they are not pushy about getting you to upgrade but they will help you find the product that best for you. I will continue to go there for years to come! read more

The Luxury Pedicure ($35) was superb. Lan was an excellent technician. I got goosebumps from the quality of massage, and the aromatherapy. My feet look and feel brand new. I will definitely be returning to Dragon Nails! read more
