Pretty typical salon experience. Made appointment in the morning for 10:30 got in no problem. I opted for the #2 pedi which included massage and hot towels which I love, it was $10 more than a regular pedi. I wanted regular polish as I like to be able to remove it myself. My tech tried to talk me into gel but I declined. My friend was already there when I arrived so we sat together to chat. I felt like my service was pretty rushed and the techs talked to each other in their native language occasionally asking how we were or if we wanted water. We were done in less than 40 minutes and my tech left me to start on another client and when I was dry I had to remove the foam pads between my toes. Then she came over to take my payment. Needless to say I only left a10% tip. My toes look nice and if you don't care about the personal touch they did ok.

Friendly Nail Spa lives up to its name and then some! The entire experience was amazing from start to finish. Yen did my gel pedicure, and it was gorgeously done, my feet are so soft, and she took such great care with every detail. Minh did my gel French tip manicure, and it turned out absolutely beautiful, clean lines, perfect shape, and super polished. The space is immaculate, airy, and smells wonderful, which instantly puts you in relaxation mode. And their prices are fantastic, which makes it so easy to keep up with regular nail care without breaking the bank. If you're looking for skilled techs, a relaxing atmosphere, and flawless results--this is the place to go!

Big toe cut up side of nail causing pain for days.. Ouch!

Yen did not listen to customer request to NOT cut the side of big toe causing pain and discomfort for many days

I wanted a French tip with a white bow and rhinestone. There was some disconnect between that and the design I received, so I wish I had been more communicative and stopped or redirected the service. The polish was not evenly applied and was spotty in a couple places. Additionally, no top coat was applied so the nails began to become damaged soon after the end of the service. While the tech was friendly and the establishment is cute and clean, I paid $55 but wish the application experience was nicer as these were supposed to be special occasion nails.

The new Polish
Christina D.

I had my nails done on Friday. Black with a gold glitter design. Gel polish, which cost extra! By Sunday, two nails were peeling. Went to the salon and had them repaired. By Monday another nail was peeling however, the Nail Tech did my nails wasn't there until Tuesday. So I go in on Tuesday morning to explain what was going on and I am told sometimes the black does that?!?! If black gel polish always peels why or how really for that matter could or would you upsell someone $20 for gel polish if it's not even gonna last a week? Fast-forward to Tuesday the lady that did my nails seems irritated because I'm there for the repair. Mind u the nails are for my boyfriend's 50th birthday party! Pretty big event! Back to her being irritated she's extremely rough cut my finger blames it on me not using the stupid half a Pool noodle that she uses to stabilize your arm while doing Services in a "professional "nail salon and then is so rude and dismissive!!! She HAD a LOYAL client!!! NOT ANYMORE!!

How funny, I just re-read my review of this salon (which had autocorrected to 'salmon!" How embarrassing; I can see how to change it, either). This place still tops all others in the area for their superb service! I get a detox gel pedicure pretty much every month and it is worth every penny! There are several nail techs who do a great job, Min gives my favorite massages and my toes always come out perfectly!

Acrylic color ombre Nails

I don't need to say much you can look at the pictures but first I asked for color ombre at the top into White. She refused to do that because she said it wouldn't grow out right which I did didn't care for because it was only for a special event. But she was very forceful so I just gave up. Then she rushed through it, which resulted in having a lot of acrylic buildup around the nails which you can see in the picture. I pointed out a big blob on my yellow thumb and she tried to rip it off, which ripped off skin too, so I didn't point out the other others, but you can see them in the picture. She complimented me on not being rude, but this was my result so..... I I'm now assuming your other customers were not rude. They were trying to give you honest feedback.

My cute beach nails, hand painted!!!
Mari C.

This is my favorite nail salon in Sparks...maybe even in Nevada! These ladies are so nice, and they work so hard. They do such an amazing job every time I'm there. I absolutely love them!! The space itself is unassuming on the outside but on the inside, its an oasis of relaxation. The smells...calm and peaceful...immediately make me feel at ease when I walk in. It's always clean and tidy. I never worry when I'm there. The service is amazing. I always call beforehand just to see if I can get in. I never ever wait!! I've been there 20+ times and not once have I waited for longer than a few minutes. The owner is so sweet, and she always takes extra special care of any guest I bring - my daughter or my mom. She always takes great care of us. I could go on and on about all of the nail techs because each is amazing but Lam is the nicest! But today, I met Lala and she did the cutest hand painted design on my nails. I'm so ready for the beach because she took so much time making my design beautiful. I loved it! Friendly Nails is the best!! I highly recommend them!

Look at the gap between the fill and the cuticle. Never in my life have I left a nail salon with my nails looking this awful.
Brooke O.

I'm so saddened by my experience here today! I was a walk in, visiting from out of town and wanted to get my nails filled in between errands. The initial service was a little rough, bending my fingers and digging her nail into my skin. But - whatever I know it's hard to do art on finger nails so I didn't say anything. Then she does my fill. And I say "oh, um- my fill didn't go to my cuticles". She said she used something clear and not to worry when she painted it would look filled. I've been getting my nails done since I was 16 (39 now) and never had that experience- but honestly I figured I'd trust the process and see if maybe her "style" was different than I expected. As long as they looked nice at the end I'd be happy. She finished filing them and then starts to apply paint. And they look AWFUL. The paint doesn't go to my cuticle - it ends at the fill and I have a gap looking like 1-2 weeks of outgrowth. I point this out to her she says it's fine. I ask her to stop and I tell her how it looks like I already need a fill and she just straight up says "nope" and keeps saying she put a "clear coat" on my nails, that's why I can still see them? She eventually gets someone else (I'm figuring the owner?) they speak for a few minutes and then the owner starts telling me they look fine, that the original lady will fix them. But the original lady doesn't think they look bad (she's told me several times how great they look) and I tell the owner I no longer want the service performed by her and I will pay a bit for the materials used on me but that I am done and leaving. The og nail lady tries to charge me $35! I gave her $10 and left. I already scheduled an appt with my nail gal at home. Moral of the story- don't cheat on your nail girl and do NOT go to this place for a fill. Terrible service.

So nice !!!  Jelly Pedi

I went in this morning to get a pedicure. And I forgot her name, but she did an excellent job. I paid for the jelly pedi and it included everything. I guess it came to almost $80. The massages were amazing. I mean really amazing. I got a gel color and my toes look great !!! my calluses removed. Very relaxing. I made another appointment for Friday to get my nails done. Very happy so far.

These are my actual nails with just gel polish.
Janet M.

This place is great! Clean, fast and a great variety of services! I have been to a few places that have left my nails thinner then paper and uneven lengths. This place is definitely the best yet! Lam is my favorite tech! She knows her stuff! The pricing is reasonable! I totally recommend this place. I personally have gotten different pedicures and nail dip and gel polish! Love them all!

Vick did my nails and he did an amazing job and made sure I loved them, I would definitely recommend getting your nails done by him.

I have been going here off and on for quite a few years and I always go back to them. Their…read morepackages are very reasonable, they sell lotion and goggles right there at the counter or you can bring in your own whichever one you prefer. All of those business cards are actually businesses that are there at the salon, so you can basically get your hair done, tan, did your eyelashes done whatever else you could think of they've got it.

Terrible business…read more My wife signed up for a 3-month trial membership and loved the place. Towards the end of her trial, she asked the front desk person what happens at the end of 3 months. The person told her that the membership would end. On my wife's last visit, she asked the front desk person again what would happen, and they told her that the membership would expire and end. Well...that was not true. I was looking over our finances, and I noticed a charge from Sunsation, and they have now been billing us for 5 months past our 3-month trial. My wife called and asked if they could cancel the membership and the person said she could not. You have to come in person and cancel the membership (so customer-friendly, I know). My wife asked if she could email and cancel that way, and the person said she doesn't think the business has an email (later, we found out they do have an email). My wife asked if she could email and cancel that way, and the person said she doesn't think the business has an email (later, we found out they do have an email). So she wrote a letter and went in to cancel, but the manager was not in, so she was told she would have to come back. I finally called today to help my frustrated wife and thankfully they agreed to cancel our membserhip without us having to come in. At this point, they have stolen over $1000 from us, and all they could tell me is that I should pay attention more to bills and make sure I read the contract I sign. Here's a tip. Just be honest with people and build a business that takes care of people and doesn't play games like this. They told my wife twice that the membership would expire, and when she signed the contract, they should have told her that the 3-month contract auto-renews unless you come in and cancel. Terrible business. They don't care about people. Just want the money out of your pocket and it's your problem if you are too trusting. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS.

I booked a dermaplane facial with Alana, the owner, and I am simply blown away. I've had many…read moreservices done from many different salons and after this experience I will never go to anyone else. Not only will you be treated like a queen but you will also get some great knowledge in the process. They have a very experienced and knowledge staff, and offer MANY services. Of all the reviews I have done, this one takes the cake and gives it to you too!

I just wanted to update my review since it's been a while. I last came in April 12 to yet again…read morehave my eyebrows waxed by Alana. All my previous sentiments still stand about how wonderful she is in waxing the brows: she does it for their shape and not the trends. Additionally I wanted to comment on what a great business woman she is. It's been great to see her through so many changes and the growth of her business. She started off, when I started seeing her in 2014, just her and one or two other aestheticians, and a couple nail ladies. Now, she's got a good handful of employees also doing waxing and possibly other services. I only see her for my eyebrow waxes. Also in 2014 she started in a like four room office upstairs in a converted house to business building in midtown. Now she's got a larger converted house to business building, where she is currently. She truly cares for her clients and employees and wants to give everyone the best experience possible. Will continue to see her for waxing my eyebrows, and will continue to 10/10 recommend this business as a whole.
