DONT GO!!! The lady was doing my nails, half way through she said "I don't have time to finish them". I showed her the design I wanted, and she couldn't even draw a star. Total. Rip. Off. If I'm gonna pay $90 for nails, they better be worth $90. A 3 yr old could do better! read more

I have had excellent service both with Jen, my nail tech and with Cecelia for a facial and brow tint. Jen does my nails and pedicure every time and she does a fantastic job every time! I have had three facials and have had my brows shaped and tinted twice now with Cecelia. She is fabulous! My face has never looked or felt so good as it does now! My brow are absolutely perfect!! I highly recommend both!!! read more

Thahn was awesome for my pedi. She was running behind but she was quick, efficient and took her time still. Best massage I've had in a long time! read more

I've been getting my nails done for several years now! I went in today for a full set of acrylic nails, I arrived at 11:25 and my appointment wasn't until 11:45 I knew I was early so I waited until my booked time! 12 o'clock came around I asked how much longer she said about 10 minutes and then an hour and a half rolls by I finally sit in the chair to get my nails started! The guy that did my nails was very ruff, cut my fingers and wouldn't listen to me when I told him I had a recent injury on my finger/finger nail!! He told me that it looked perfectly fine and continued to put the nail on! Once he finished I left disgusted with how ugly my nails were I showed him a picture and he decided not to follow it!! read more

I used to go to this salon a lot but couldn't afford nails for a while. I went back today for an appointment. All I asked for was pink and white ombré nails. No special shaping nothing extra. When booking online it says this service is 48$. And I understand maybe ombré is an extra charge. But my total came out to 69.00$ without even including a tip. I feel scammed especially since my nails did not turn out ombré at all. The shape was okay and they weren't lumpy. But I was so disappointed to pay that much for something I didn't get. read more

Do not go here! I don't normally leave reviews, good or bad. But I had two bad experiences, so here we go. The first time I took my 10 year old niece to get her nails polished. No gel, just simple polish, took about 15 minutes. It was a man in mid 60s or so who did them, I have no name. I didn't ask about the price, assuming (I know!) it would be less than $20. I get to the register and he says $42!!!!!! I said what? He said $42 again. I paid it because I didn't want to take a fun experience and ruin it. I told myself I'd never be back. Well about a year later (about 3 weeks ago, late November '24) I was driving by and thought ehh get your nails done. Make sure you know the price and all will be good. Wrong. I got Becky, who must've been having a bad day from the get go. She literally threw my hand in the air when she was done doing whatever she was doing, like get out of here. After 10 minutes of that I was ready to walk out. She must've noticed and tried to make small talk. Fail. So the worst part was the job she did. She used the tool to remove my polish, made my finger bleed. The polish looked opaque and amateurish. She made my nails concave and the corners quickly broke off, splintered way down to the quick. I have fantastic nail health. To their credit, I did call the owner and she gave me a credit for my services. I will get them redone this week with a prayer (by the owner) and then take my business elsewhere. In the grand scheme of things it's nails right? I'm not super picky, but just want to warn consumers. read more

I am beyond fuming. Both at myself and the person who did my toe nails. The Guy was very friendly and nice. He Did my nails, I paid, and got to my car to look at them. I didn't think I had to examine them before paying considering I only asked for a solid white pedicure. BOY WAS I FUCKING WRONG. I should have checked before even paying. Half assed paint job, smeared on my toes, he cut me with his clippers and filed all my nails unevenly. My one big toe is round? Idk whyAnd the other big toe squared. As well as all my little toes slanted. It's already chipping and he didn't even completely paint over my nails. I hate my nails and I never want to go back here. read more

I have been going here for about 2 years and I'm sad to say that after yesterday I will not be going back. I am still giving 3 stars because Tracia is wonderful and I recommend her if you do choose to go here. Yesterday I had an appointment with Tina at 1pm. I made this appointment 3 weeks prior at my last appointment with Tracia. Tracia was not available and I've heard wonderful things about Tina so I was okay with temporarily switching nail techs. I get there and they ask if it's okay that they move me to someone else due to overbooking Tina. I ask who and they say Becky, and I say absolutely not (I've had Becky on two other occasions and neither were pleasant). They say how about Kim and I decide to give her a try since I've never had her before. Kim was nice on approach but we did not speak during the service (which is fine, I don't need small talk). I get basic gel nails, one color, nothing fancy, and asked her to reshape my nails so they were all round. She maybe spent a total of 10 minutes on my nails. She barely filed them, they are all different lengths, and barely put any polish on my nails. There are dents, a few bubble holes, and the polish doesn't go all the way to the cuticle on a few of them. Her gel polish heat lamp thing that I had to put my hands in either had hair in it or a spider web, not really sure but either way it had not been cleaned in quite some time. It's not the worst nail job I've ever experienced, but not even close to how good Tracia normally does. I didn't complain and I still left a decent tip, but not as much as I normally would. Their scheduling is a mess and most of the nail techs aren't great, some even rude. There was a time when I showed up for a nail appt and Tracia was unexpectedly not able to be there, and they acted like "oh, well she's not here so.. you can go with Becky.." I make appointments with specific people for a reason. If for some reason that appointment is not going to be as It was made, maybe call me and let me know?? read more

Left without getting my nails done. Posted hours say 10am. I have a busy day so I showed up at 10 and walked in at 2 after. Only one person had walked in ahead of me. I walk in an there's five people half way through their services. Ok. Two people ahead of me on the sheet. Still confused about how they opened at ten. So I ask how long it's gonna be. I'm told 40 minutes. Then I asked what time they opened and she lied to my face and said 10. Skip it and go somewhere else. read more

went there to get my nails done for the first time yesterday! AWFUL! I have a appointment to go somewhere else next week to have them fixed My nail tech checked her phone and was texting while I was getting my service done, she stopped my nails to get on her phone .. the nails look so bad I was so upset I just left after I paid. Waste of $50 read more

I wish I could give a ZERO STAR. Yesterday I went to get my nails done which this was the FIRST AND LAST TIME I will ever go here. At first the nails were looking great until I stepped outside to leave and it was horrible. I've never in my life had my nails look as bad as they did yesterday. then to top it off I was told a full set was $35 and the designs would be $15 so the total would be $55 right??? WRONG I was charger $69 and some change on top of giving a $5 tip for the lady which I shouldn't have given but being the nice person I am why not..... I had to come home and reshape myself I'm a better damn nail tech then these wanna bees and I've never done nails in my life but I guarantee you I'm about to start doing my own... best believe I am calling about pricing because how are you going to say $55 would be my total and I get charged almost $70 when I literally could of did the shit my self.... Here's pics of when I left vs after I did my magic to them.... And they were supposed to be square idk what she was doing but that was nothing close to square .... Never tf again I know that read more

I've been very disappointed in this salon several times and never have it in me to say anything but today I had a woman name Becky do my nails and one needed repaired, not only was the nail she put on completely crooked but it was super lumpy and shaped weird compared to the rest when I showed her my two thumbs compared to one another so she could see how much of a difference it was and asked her to fix it she got mad and started talking in a language I couldn't understand and going crazy with her drill and cut me several times. she was rude. am I crazy for wanting to be happay with spending $60.00 on my nails? I will not be returning to this salon and should have learned my lesson from all the other terrible experiences I'be had here! read more

I sincerely love this salon. I've been an RN for 40 years, so sanitation and disinfection is very important to me. Hugh is , in particular, my favorite. Spa treatment at reasonable prices. Highly recommend read more

I've been going here since they were in the Woodville Mall 20+ years ago. Tina is amazing. As well is the girl who is new and sits next to Tina. Absolutely great. She fixed the horrible job another nail tech did the day before. Now I know who to ask for...but all in all they always look great. Never nickel and dime you for everything. And they to be doing something right to have been in business this long!!!!! read more

I'm not typically the one to write bad reviews but I was very disappointed in my experience at first nails & spa. The second I sat in the chair Becky rushed right through my nails like she had something better to do. She was very rude, and nicked my skin a couple times, and was very aggressive with my hands. Once she was done with my nails, they looked like "boo's purple door" from Monsters Inc. I was immediately embarrassed and wanted to hide my purple door fingers from everyone. 0/10 recommend. read more

Nail job was not good. Nails shaped weird and various lengths... bumpy spots. Only reason I gave a 3 was bc staff was nice. And they got me in without an appt. Both me and my daughters were quite messed up... read more

This is fr the first nail spa I've been to that didn't make my nails look horrible. I absolutely loved the job that Tina did on my nails. Not only do the nails look amazing, there's no bumps or dents in my nails like other places have done to me. Tina was also quite fast and precise with her work (I'm used to sitting in nails salons forever). I HIGHLY recommend coming here if you want your nails looking cute. read more

I popped in while visit he area from out of town. Made my appointment on the phone 15 mint yes after phoning in. The salon quiet and clean. And I have to say that the pedicure was the most thorough pedicure I may have ever had. The gentle men giving me the pedicure was gentle and meticulous. He removed callouses I was embarrassed I didn't know I had! Seriously..... He did a stellar job. For 30 bucks, you can't beat it. I was so happy I stumbled upon this salon! read more

The nails were just bad, one of the lady's tried to push me into getting gel. & that's more expensive

So I got a LOT to say. Last summer I got a Pedi with Becky. She ripped a chunk out of my toe and used stuff that had not been cleaned. I went to TN a few days later and her shitshow of a job left my foot infected. A nurse told me that it was the nail techs fault, the nurse has also been doing nails for 10+ years. I decided to give Becky another chance today, I got a full set nails. The actual nails are cute. But I have a chunk out of my finger and she left paint all over my fingers and didn't even trim my nails, instead of trimming my cuticles or at least pushing them back she used one of the nail drills to move/cut them. She tried to get the paint off with a NAIL FILE. And honestly looking at the paint job as is it is raggity and bumpy. I did not want gel polish but you know she can do what she wants. NOT worth the $57. Pathetic My friend had a good experience with a male nail tech that I have also had before and loved. If I ever decide to go back I will be asking for him. If I get an infection I will be coming to the store read more

Actually ZERO stars!! Went twice, WILL NEVER EVER go again! 1. Worst thing of all they gave me a FUNGUS! Yes, FUNGUS! 2. They are sooo rude, I've only one other time in my life had such horrible customer service! 3. My nails look AWFUL! None of them are the same shape or size 3. Paint job is TERRIBLE!! Parts of my nails weren't even painted! 4. Because of them I'll have to have my nails removed and treat for the fungus!!! 5. I'll have to spend $80+ to get a whole new set Bottom line- DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY GOING TO THIS SHIT HOLE SALON!!! read more

Went and had a woman nickel and dime me for everything I wanted done. They have definitely changed over the past few years. I was so upset after I had them redo them twice and went and spent another $25 to have another place fix them and NOW they look great. I paid that woman $55 with a tip just for a full set of square short acrylic nails. Extra for this extra for that. Blah blah blah. Last time I will ever go read more

First Nails & Spa - Great job as always!!! - Nail Salons Near Me - Northwood, Ohio

Very bad business! I suggest you go to a different nail place because this one is horrible with appointments. As well as rude nail techs.

Took my daughter for a manicure during her spring break and she loved it. I called in the morning and they had an opening a short time later. They were busy when we walked in but there were a lot of employees working so they were getting customers taken care of in a timely manner. The lady that took care of my daughter did a nice job but did remove just a little too much cuticle on one of her fingers so it was red hence 4 stars instead of 5. I have to admit my daughter rarely gets her nails done so they weren't in the best shape to begin with though. Overall very friendly bunch and my daughter had a great time. Nice little Salon and we'll be back. read more

NEVER AGAIN . I have been getting my nails done for 15 years and this was by far the WORST nail appointment I have ever had to sit through . I went in to have an old acrylic set taken off and a new one put on . They had me soak them for what I was told was going to be 30 minutes . I ended up sitting for over an hour . When they finally took me to a table the tech ended up popping my old set off with a clipper anyway . My hands were covered in residue from the soak and I was told just to wash them when I got home . While filing my new set four of my fingers were cut . They charge extra for any shape that is not square . I wanted almond and the shape looks absolutely inconsistent on every nail . my Index finger nail is completely applied crooked . The lengths were all over the place . I got gel polish on top that wasn't applied all the way To the edges . There was polish left all over my cuticles AND ON MY HANDS. The edges of my nails are rough and uneven . There is thick build up of acrylic on the under sides of my nails . I could go on . The only reason I did not demand for it to be fixed is because I wanted out of that hell hole as quickly as possible . i was charged $62 which is standard, for an acceptable job . charging $62 for this massacre is absolutely shameful . I could have done a better job drunk, and using my feet . read more

I asked for a regular manicure, as I was not spending the extra for gel and am not a fan of the removal procedure with gel. When I go to remove the polish it wont come off!!! Obviously it is gel. Now my nails are ugly. Just what I wanted to avoid. I understand the communication gap but I specifically told her no gel when she tried to up-sell me. read more

I had a pedicure and manicure done yesterday. Needless to say I was not happy with the service I received. The lady did my nails was not happy that I requested a third coat of polish on my toes when the polish was not covering evenly. I had requested a different color for my fingernails and the gel product was bad. The color kept making clots when the gel was hardening under the lights. It was awful. I don't think if I wouldnt have said something she would have left it be. I told her I was not happy and she did put another color (blue) on but the old color (yellow) was still noticeable around the edges. I was charged $90. Most places use two hot towels one for each leg here you get one only on top of your legs. Massage was approx 30 seconds. I had been there before back in Sept. and had a bad experience which involved in going to podiatrist and getting an ingrown nail fixed. I thought I give them a second chance and not use same gal. Again not worth the money!! Not sure why people can't take pride in their work!! read more
