A fantastic salon! Tracy and her staff are phenomenal and so friendly. My nails last FOREVER! I've asked what their secret is - they use the SNS nails base and topcoat instead of the gel topcoat with the UV nail lamps that don't last as long. It makes a big difference. Also the wonderful hand and foot massages I get during my manis/pedis can't be beat. I'd be tempted to come in just for that! read more

Tracy is the absolute BEST! My nails always look absolutely perfect when she has done them. Plus she is the sweetest person on the planet, and makes you feel like a million bucks. I've been going to her for my nails and pedicares for years.And now I find out that she also does facials. I had one and it was amazing!! read more

First, I must let everyone who went to Sully Nails, that Tracy is here. I was getting a pedicure and for everyone who has gotten them that it is pretty basic....but Tracy gave me a pedicure that was truly incredible. She did not rush and solely paid attention to me, her massage was incredible, I almost went to sleep. She even had a steam machine which was absolutely . Tracy is an excellent artist and provided a steam pedicure which no other shop has provided. Thank you Tracy!! read more

I'm so glad I found a great nail place that's literally across the street from my house! Tracy gave me a wonderful manicure. 5/5 stars!!

I've been a client of Tracy's (the owner) for over 10 years. She genuinely cares for her clients and has positive energy. Tracy is always tuned into the hottest nail trends, but she is equally skilled at classic looks. The salon is beautiful and clean. I go for services every 2-3 weeks and I have been extremely happy. All of the staff are highly skilled and friendly. read more

This place is wonderful. i've been going there since I was a young girl and I couldn't recommend it enough wonderful place wonderful people. The new owner is also very nice. Very welcoming. If you're looking for a good spot to go, this is the place! read more

My 94 year old mom and I have been going here for several months and we are never disappointed when we leave. Tracy, the owner, is a delight. She truly cares about each customer. Tracy and her team (Lee and Vee) do an amazing job on our nails. My mom has mobility issues and Vee, Lee, and Tracy always make sure she is comfortable and assist her in every way as she gets her powder dipped nail service. Each of these ladies have done our nail service and they are very conscientious and pay attention to detail. The salon is very calming. As you enter the door, they greet you with a warm hello. Aside from the well done manicures, we find the warm lotion hand massage an added bonus. Tracey, Lee, and Vee...thank you for what you do to make my mom's and my nails look elegant! read more

Lee did an amazing pedicure and massage!! Her attention to detail is 5 star!! Truly a master in her field. Make an appointment or walk in ... you will leave with picture-perfect feet!! read more

I've been seeing Vee for a couple years now and she has never done anything short of amazing with my nails. I'll show her a picture of what I want and she'll spend her time find the exact match. She then does an amazing job on both my nails and pedicures. I just tried Gel-X for the first time and I'm in love. They look amazing. Nancy is so sweet and always asks how my family is doing. I love it there. read more

I went to Elegance Nails for maybe a decade. I posted a photo maybe 6-7 years ago on yelp, just for them. Nancy, the manager, always keeps a welcoming demeanor and welcomes returning and new customers. Lee also worked on my nails and toes for the majority of the time here. They are pretty traditional and don't usually cut corners (unless you like your nails round of course!) I wish it was not so out of the way now and I could visit every once in a while. Every person has their own style, but overall, they take care of it all. read more

My daughter and I love going to Elegance Nails in Fairfax to get our nails done. Each visit we are treated well and they are able to do some of the crazy nail designs we come up with. read more

As far as dinky little nails salons are concerned, I would have to say this is an awesome little nail/waxing salon. Definitely ditching the one I usually go to in Springfield for Elegance Nails. It may be smaller than most of it's competitors out there but they keep it clean, keep it friendly, and do their shit right. Not only right, but WELL. The foot massage I get with my pedicure here is amazing. There is no other salon around here that I've been to that rubs my feet right, except this place. Tina gave me a pedi today and helped my indecisive butt pick a color after I spent forever looking at them when I walked in. She was super sweet, worked hard to free me of nasty hang-nails, and made conversation...or attempted to but, I am one for sitting back with a magazine and relaxing, so that didn't go far. Speaking of relaxing, you'll love the massage chairs at this place, they all look new and fully functional. Great chairs too - you can really get a good butt massage out of 'em! $25 for clean and cute tosies, sweet people who appeared to be good pals with their regulars, and an amazing foot massage. Done deal. read more

The best gift card that I got it and I have been going to Elegance nails for 4 years. My nails always beautiful and the spa pedicures, yes, change mood. So friendly staff and environment, also between customers, we all show happiness at relaxing time there without any concern. Safe place, clean, sterilized, offering the delicious green tea. Cindy Lee is my "nail dream fairy". I'm leaving out of Virginia now, but my drive to Elegance Nail is always a pleasure. Paula Rojas read more

It was ok. I have been here twice. Both visits I was able to come right in. The Employees were friendly. This most recent time I had a gel manicure, It hasn't even been three days and a couple of nails are peeling off. There is no way this is going to last a week. For a $40 french gel manicure I usually get a solid 2, if not 3 weeks from other salons. Not sure what the deal is here, if it's the products or the techs but reading the reviews it seems like I am not the first one with this problem. If you do visit, bring cash to tip. They cannot add tips to credit cards. read more

Such an amazing, friendly place. We came in just on the reviews and this place didn't disappoint. I got a great pedicure airy massage and it was super!! I highly recommend this salon. Go and feel good! read more

When I moved back to the Northern VA area after living in Newport News (the land of the cheap hair, nails, etc.) for four years for college, I had the hardest time finding a nail salon to call "home". I actually just did a google search and Elegance Nails came up so I read the other Yelp review. Looked good, so I decided to go. Fantastic service, great quality work, and awesome prices. I was used to paying $12-15 for acrylic fills in Newport News, so the $17 at Elegance Nails took some getting used to, but it's a hell of a lot better than the $20+ you'll pay anywhere else. Love the people, love the place - call and make an appointment with Nancy. She's awesome! Tip: you can't add your tip if you pay by credit card, so be sure to have cash! read more

Got a pedicure and shellac manicure right before vacation. Cost was $58 + tip. The actual experience was not bad, although I was asked if I wanted an eyebrow wax. When I was finished I asked for the paper slippers (had come straight from work so I wasn't wearing flip flops), but the technician said my toes were dry. When I got home and took my shoes off the polish was ruined. My cuticles were also ruined- having been cut to shreds. It has been less than 2 weeks since my shellac is already chipping. Maybe I had a bad technician, but I was not pleased with experience. read more

Yes, it's small. Yes, it's in a semi-questionable looking strip mall. However, I received the best manicure at this location. I chose the Shellac manicure, which I've been getting for quite some time at many other locations, but this time was far superior. The nail tech was quick but extremely efficient. She was nice, asked questions about my day, and was overall very pleasant. Many times when getting the gel manicure, after I feel like I have to go through and kind of clean up my nails and nail beds to free them of the excess gel polish from the manicure. The nail tech was such a perfectionist, that when my manicure was over, it was literally PERFECT. I took pictures and sent them to SO many friends to share the news. I had found my perfect nail salon. My friend came with me, and her nails looked equally amazing. I love this place. This and another nail salon near my house are my top two in the area, and I've been to A LOT. Thankfully this one is near my work, and they can get the manicure done and have me back at work within my hour lunch break. Amazing. Thank you, Elegance Nails!! read more

4.5 Stars Curtis shocked me when he told me he wanted to get a manicure. I've obviously trained him well. I'll let him review this one: Now I may not know much about manicures, but I know when I am in need of one. I had just broken my thumb nail moving boxes (the second one I broke this week) and my nails needed to be cleaned and trimmed. I was happy to find that the Elegance Nails was open until 8 pm on New Years Eve and I was taken right in. The nail technician was very pleasant and, though she did not engage in much conversation, she did compliment Jade. She was extremely professional and, in my opinion, very thorough. I have only ever had one other manicure before, but I thought she spent more time on me and did not rush through. She did a great job of cleaning up the broken nails and making them even and gave me a nice clear coat of polish, nice enough to be noticed, but subtle enough not to be. I thought the salon was very clean, sanitary and the music was very tasteful. I rather liked the place, but Jade did have a few comments about what she noticed. She thought that the staff was polite, and not aggressive in adding services, particularly eye brow waxing (Yelp inside joke). They had a limited selection of lighter nail polishes, but reds, plum, and pink colors were plentiful. She also felt the place was sparse and bare, in the end, she was quite satisfied with my "manly-cure". Overall, I say four and a half stars. Good results, moderate prices, professional staff, and a proud wife. read more

Ok, it was not me but my wife who got the works! After testing a few waters(literally the hot waters of pedicure), my wife thinks highely of the service. Thanks to you yelpers, after Salon Mint this is another good find apparently. The lady to go to is Tracy, think she is the manager or owner. My wife felt that the people is even better than red door spa obviosuly the ingredients/place is not a comparison. Just incase you are wondering, my contribution here was to find the place, get an appt and drive her to this place- about enough to earn the license to post this review read more

They are pretty old school here...they still use the razor on heels and don't offer mani and pedicure menus like deluxe pedicure scrubs with wax and more...you get the basic and that's it...guess I'm spoiled by Dallas salons where we have big screens, get offered free wine and mixed drinks in some places and have 5 different options just for your pedicure. This place was also a little dirty...there were no tables to sit your drink or magazine, so i put mine on their break station right next to my pedi station and i noticed containers of food unrefridgerated...ew. My manicure and pedicure looked fine but there is nothing special going on over at Elegance Nails...welcome back to the no frills 90's nail salon, they wouldn't be competitive back home in Texas. read more

They accept walk-ins which was great since me and my friend went to two other places where you needed an appointment just to get a manicure. I showed my nail technician a picture of what I wanted and she was spot on. Before even starting the manicure, I said I wanted acrylics and she kept on insisting my nails were too pretty for acrylics. But I wanted long claws, so she let me get them. They had a huge range on different colors from OPI which I prefer over other brands. She even let me test some colors before I finalized my decision. The final result amazed me and I am thoroughly impressed. Will definitely go back again if I'm near the fairfax area. read more

Elegance Nails - Gel manicure with acrylics. - Nail Salons Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

LOVE LOVE LOVE i'm disappointed my manicure didn't last as long as it does when I do it myself. WTF??? however, i LOVE that their eyebrow wax is only $10 and the person who did it was AMAZING (I wish I could remember her name!!!) at any rate, I got 3 compliments on my eyebrows....and rarely does anybody notice, that says alot. I might swing by again soon and see if I can remember the face of the girl who did my eyebrows :( she was amazing! pedicure lasted so come for pedicures & eyebrow waxes! read more

I have been doing my nails here for years. They do a great job, especially with my natural nails. Thanks Nancy! read more

Elegance Nails - Natural nails. We used use silk wrap to get my nails strong so I can now wear them natural again - Nail Salons Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

I live by Dunn Loring Metro station and go out to this salon because after tons of visits to other salons, Elegance was worth the price and distance. I mainly go for acrylic nails, and the shape and quality are perfect every time. The nails all look even, my cuticles don't end up with scabs on them (ew), and they clean up underneath the nail. I usually ask for rounded nails because it looks more natural on my tiny hands, and the shape looks perfect every time. They don't have samples of what the gel polish colors look like, which I'm bummed about, but the selection of regular polish is decent. If you want a quick and dirty and cheap set of nails, go to one of the salons near Merrifield. If you want well-done and are willing to pay more, go to Elegance. read more

I have been going to Elegance Nails for as long as I have lived in the City of Fairfax (approximately 14 years). I have recommended this salon to my friends. One of my closest friends goes to Lee and really likes the way she does her manicures and pedicures. I see Nancy for my nails and absolutely love her! She is gentle and really listens to what I want. I am always very happy with the results. Different ladies have done my pedicures and I have always been satisfied. Everyone in the salon is friendly and customer service oriented. The pedicure chairs are super comfortable and the chair massages are great. Tools are sanitized and staff are careful with my feet and nails, which I appreciate. I would not even consider going anywhere else for my nail and pedicure needs. I highly recommend Elegance Nails! Many thanks to Nancy, Lee and the rest of the staff at Elegance Nails! p.s. this review says I am in San Francisco. I am in Fairfax, VA! read more

Thanks to the many well deserved reviews on that its the one place that I felt comfortable trying and while they are more than what I paid for in chicago, they were cheaper than most and I watch my pennys. So I was pleasantly surprised that they live up to their reviews and do a great job. I have moved away from the area but if I ever found myself in need of their services and I'm in the area, they are my go to for sure! read more

I would never go anywhere else for a manicure, pedicure or even a good waxing! Just make sure you have cash to leave a tip because you can't add it by credit card. read more

Elegance Nails - Baby pink GEL nails with a hint of glitter on the ring finger. - Nail Salons Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

Never coming here again. I came here over a year ago after getting off of work a bit early one evening to get a pedicure and had a pretty good experience from what i remember. I decided to come here again today because it is the closest nail salon to my job & again I had the afternoon off. I came in, was told to pick a color (gel manicure) and to sit at a station that was empty. They were empty and not busy, only one other customer was there. The employee in the station next to me was nice enough & asked how I was and if I wanted water. The employee that ended up coming over to help me barely said two words to me and would not look at me the entire time she was doing my nails. At one point the other employee from the empty station came and stood next to me (literally three inches away from me) and just stood there for a long time not saying anything. I get that sometimes other workers like to look at the nails or colors that other people are getting but she was uncomfortably close to me and it was unnecessary as her station was already right beside ours. She (the other employee not mine) eventually asked me if I was in school, I quickly answered no mostly because it was too late to try to salvage a conversation & I was already uncomfortable and unhappy and just wanted to get out of here. Still the woman actually working on my nails said nothing, did not look at me at all, and acted very displeased for no reason. To top it off my polish does not even fully cover my nails with the edges on more than one finger remaining bare. Also even after cleaning and filing after the polish dried I still left with hardened polish underneath my fingernails & dust caked onto my skin. No matter how bad a service, i always tip something, although i made up in my mind that it was not going to be an above average tip due to the poor customer service. The person at the desk ran my card and when i asked about adding tip she asked me if i had "cash for her" talking about the one that worked on my nails. I said no and she told me they do not take tips on cards to which i asked "at all?" And she said no. Well, i don't have cash so there's no possible way for her to get a tip. She then told me that i could "stop by anytime". I am not making an extra trip to bring back a cash tip for poor customer service, also the woman that did my nails did not even introduce herself or tell me her name so i wouldn't know who to leave it for. I guess it worked out that i didn't have to pay a tip because it was physically impossible (even though the card machine they used does have a tip option). The two stars were because there was no wait & I was in and out pretty quick but seeing how they treat people shows me why they are empty. read more

I've been going here for years and I either have an excellent experience or terrible. I usually have acrylics, so I always get a fill when I go in. The other day, I was waiting for awhile (because I walked in). I picked out a color and it wasn't the normal technician doing acrylics, it was also a different gel led light machine (not the normal OPI they use). She didn't shape my nails very well, they were rigged and not smooth. I actually cut myself this evening, with my nail. The polish itself was bubbly. I can't tell whether it was the non-usual technician doing acrylics or the new led light. I was too scared to say anything because the woman before me was also having a bad time with her nails as wel read more

HELEN IS AMAZING. Today I went in to get my nails fixed because yesterday I got nails done somewhere else and they were horrible. They took me in & took care of me. Helen took her time with me & did an amazing job. So happy with the results. I definitely recommend her. read more

I have gone here twice to have my gel nails filled and also a gel manicure. The first time was very good and the gel manicure lasted 3 weeks before it started to chip. I believe the technician who did my nails was the owner. The second time was a week ago. I had a different technician. In less than a week, I have lost the polish off of 7 nails and 4 of the gel artificial nails that were filled have cracked and broken. My nails look horrible! My teenage daughter also had a gel manicure that has chipped and broken already. I will not be going here again. Save your money! read more

I called the salon later on a Saturday afternoon to see if they availability for two pedicures. The woman was very pleasant and told us to come right over. When we arrived they took us right in.

I just went to Elegance Nails for a pedicure. They weren't very busy so I was seen right away and had a variety of colors to choose from. The salon was clean and tidy and the workers were nice enough. My pedicure was fine but seemed a bit rushed. I sat down after the woman next to me, and my pedicure was done while she was still getting her massage. The woman doing my pedicure got nail polish on my skin yet didnt bother wiping it off and when she was done she just walked away without saying a word. I would probably come back here again as a last resort, but my search for a better nail salon in the Fairfax area still continues... read more
