Waldorf yall did it to me again! This was posted on Monday, April 27, 2026 at around noon…read more I just paid $59 plus a lil tip (because I'm not a monster) for the most basic azz, botched pedicure of my life! Her name was Brenda and she's been working at the shop for about a year and she also works at Longhorn in the area. She was nice and all yall but she basically tickled my feet and gave me one of the worse paint job I've ever experienced. I have a question WALDORF, how do you all give this place almost 4 stars for work like this?! I don't like to post my feet unless I'm getting paid but I had to make an exception because what? I went in with the intent to get a pedicure and gel nail but when I'm somewhere new, I start with seeing how they do on my pedicure first. This was a Spanish speaking shop across from a Spanish Market and next door to a liquor store which is neither here nor there but for informational purposes only. Listen, it was quiet (went on a Monday around 11:30am) and the ladies seemed super sweet but yall.... I'm sure she has no idea how displeased but b/c I'd rather receive mediocre service than gripe and complain I just grinned and bared it. I'm no Karen okay! But yall It's only remotely not that bad only because it's gel. I mean how much can you mess that up, right! But yall, it was way too costly for how sloppy the work and just not worth it. I did the basic gel pedicure with paraffin. Something I don't do often. I selected a light or Barbie pink color but I changed it because she was having so much trouble finding my color choice. Here is all she did wrong: 1. No proper intro: hello, my name is Brenda, thank you for coming in today. Please pick your color and take a seat and I'll be right with you. 2. Too light of a touch. I actually felt like she was being funny or just really scared. 3. No gentle suggestive selling. She actually started my service w/o know my color choice and stating her English is not too good. Okay but come on! Make that money girl and don't just over charge for subpar service PLEASE!! 4. The water was very shallow and luke warm. She simply handed me a price list and did not clarify my desire of service. 5. The paint was sloppy and all on my cuticles and top of toe. I have fat, wide feet with a short, very square nail bed. So I don't require a ton of polish. I like sharp line and thin even coats. I am so sick of this! I gotta go all the way to VA for professional nail service because Waldorf girlies just can't get it right. Waldorf yall full of subpar services and I'm over it!! I'm sorry to the owner for this harsh review but I gotta be real. Consistency is key the people will pay more for that. My money is too hard earned for this foolishness. The nails are really just barely okay and that not okay. I could have saved my $65 and did it myself. ‍Never again!‍

My fave husband & wife nail team have moved on so I had to try another tech. I shared my needs & the things I'm particular about and they assigned me a tech. I opted for the deluxe pedi since my tired legs & feet could use a little more massaging & heat. It comes with callus treatment if you need it, sugar scrub, mask, & paraffin wax. My tech delivered the requested services and I was pleased. The new nail salon is larger than the old and attractive with its open layout. Check them out. Some of Escape's services are a little more expensive than local competitors but the experience makes it worth the money.

Tell me why I get to the register and my total is suddenly $80?! No explanation, no breakdown--just sitting there looking clueless like that makes it okay. And to make it worse, the quality was terrible. All I asked for was plain white toes... HOW do you mess that up? Uneven, sloppy, just rushed and careless. Definitely will not be coming back. The lemonade was nasty too--only decent thing was the fruit was fresh. Save your money and go somewhere that respects your time, your wallet, and actually does a good job.

Never too much commotion or loud talking like at other salons. I always call ahead to see when there is availability. My nails never break, they last an entire month! I'm someone who does not really enjoy nail days, so I push my nail appointments off. I really like when I come here because although I don't come as often as other clients may, I feel very welcomed and remembered each time. I have been coming to this location all year.

Coco Bay Nail Bar by Vinton - Waldorf, MD I really wanted to…read morehave a good experience here, but unfortunately my visit was frustrating from start to finish. The technician was polite, but she immediately began cutting my natural nails without asking if I wanted them shortened. I had to stop her. Clients should always be consulted before altering their natural nails. During my service, the pedicure tub was left running and overflowed onto the floor. An older gentleman who had just walked in as a customer offered to help clean it up while I was sitting there soaking. That was kind of him, but it should not have happened in a professional setting. It became clear that only one technician was trying to service me and two other clients simultaneously. I was there for three hours, no joke. Eventually, her sister was called in to assist. When she arrived, she questioned the type of product on my nails and debated with me about whether it was dip powder. She also began criticizing my regular nail tech and repeatedly tried to upsell me on overlays after I explained that I naturally have thin nails. The pedicure portion felt rushed and heavy-handed toward the end. To make matters worse, when I was ready to pay, I was told they only accept Zelle or cash. There was no visible notice of this beforehand. I do not carry cash and was directed to an ATM, which charged a fee. After spending three hours there, that was extremely frustrating. Despite the overall experience, I was still asked if I wanted to add eyebrow services. I came in simply needing my nails and toes done. Instead of leaving relaxed, I left feeling stressed and inconvenienced. Unfortunately, I will not be returning.

I found this salon by checking Yelp reviews. Although there were few, they were great enough for us to give this place a try. We came on a Monday late afternoon as a walk in. They were able to accommodate us and seat her immediately. It was very clean and decorated beautifully for the Christmas holiday. After assessing her hair, Sulma determined that she needed a deep condition and a trim. Another stylist did my daughter's hair under Sulma's guidance. While waiting, Sulma gave my girl a drink, and me tea and biscuits :) Overall the experience went well and my daughter's hair looks amazing!
