    After at another nail salon

    UPDATE‼ They gave me a nail fungus on my hands and feet wow . Just wow also no resolution to them messing up my nails a few weeks ago.

    They don't actually take any appointments. Everything is rushed and it just feels like the McDonald's of nail salons.

    Lots of colors neatly organized

    My boyfriend and I walked in on a Friday afternoon around 330 to this Nail establishment. They were able to accommodate us quickly and put us in a chair each for pedicures and began our manicure and refill while we were getting our pedicure. My boyfriend likes to get color on his toes and typically at other nail salons. He receives a round shape. Here they squared out his shape on his nails, and they look wonderful. We decided to go for a Vail blue for him this time. It typically go with a shade of bread and they have plenty to choose from between the gel colors, the dips and the regular polish. We both got the deluxe pedicure which is $50 each. That's two upgrades from the basic pedicure. The massage with this pedicure was amazing. Both nail techs took their time in carefully delivering the services. It was relaxing from beginning to end. And I can't remember the last time that my nails were pristinely painted. My boyfriend then got an extra oil treatment at the end to help with his dry skin on both his feet and hands. My hands came out beautiful and usually around my cuticles. It still looks a little nicked up by the time I get done. However, today everything was beautifully done with care and comfort. I highly recommend this nail salon. The only drawback that I can see is that in the initial selling of the services, there is an upsell pitch that can go on a little long, but it worked for us. We did the upgrades and we really enjoyed the service.

    Visiting from out of town. needed to find a salon quick and was a bit apprehensive from the reviews but decided to give it a try. it's a small salon but the work I saw and the work I had done was PHENOMENAL! I'm so glad I went. I had the dip powder. My nail tech was quick and so goooooood. I would highly recommend this place for nail service. thank you!

    I've been coming here for about a year. Everyone is great and Kelly is amazing! My nails were so busted this most recent time because I had let them go and she fixed them up beautifully, in just an hour! $65 + tip for refill and chrome. The overall vibe is great, I enjoy the music and cleanliness. The clientele is usually kind.

    Horrible Place. I never write reviews yet this is my first. They made me wait for 30 mins before seeing someone. The way they don't sanitize the areas before having a new client is crazy. I didn't want a new set of Gel X just a rebase. The person doing my nails bent back my old gel X making them pop off. He gaslighted me into getting a new set. Then removed each nail without soaking them and just pulling them off. The way my news turned out made me cry.

    Love this place so much!! Been going here for almost a year now they always give me the best set of acrylics!

    This nail spa is so far the best I have gone to in Capital Hill. There was a guy with frosted hair who did my pedicure, I forgot to ask his name. The woman who did my manicure did a great job and her name is Emma I believe. They both did impressive work. Yesterday I can say I got the best manicure and pedicure of 2022. Simple dark Autumn/Winter colors I asked for. Each of their skills are spectacular! All of my fingernails are even and coffin shaped and my toenails square. The color is perfectly matched. I always get regular polish for my toes and dip for my fingernails. They have a wide selection of dip and gel colors. The shop is clean for the most part and they use clean tools and pedicure bowls. The prices for their treatments are not clearly located but they do list the prices on a promotional card which I forgot to grab as I was leaving. Overall good shop and I will be going back.

    full set

    I don't know why there's so many negative reviews, but this is probably the best nail salon I've ever been to! They started my toes first, and while I was getting my toes done they also started on my nails, which I've never had that done before. It was quick and done exactly how I wanted them to be! I'm absolutely in love with my nails thank you Lingling for doing my full set and I forget the other girl's name, but it was the younger girl with gray hair who did my toes. Also, I did not get gel and they are holding up great! was also very affordable. I believe it was 160 total.

    I called, they told me a time to come in. I sat for 20 minutes before they started on my nails. Then they rushed my nails. My gel manicure bubbled and peeled two days later.

    After my second dip set here I accidentally chipped a nail within the first week, when I went back to get it fixed they got me in right away and fixed it at no charge! They really take care of you here.

    my second set

    Love it here! I have gotten a few gel-x sets, and I brought my sister here too. My go-to place!

    Couldn't be happier with my nails! It was such a pleasant experience, I will definitely be back!

    All nail shapes are different, cut long nails to nubs, requested a different color multiple times. Note the differences in nail lengths.

    I went in for a brow and lash tint. I signed all of the consent forms and toxic reaction warnings…read morebefore I arrived. The esthetician was friendly, boisterous, loud and immediately jumped into performing the service without instructions or warnings. She did a good job applying the under eye patches, tints, etc. When it was time to take the tint off she dug cotton balls into my eyes - way deeper than was necessary and without care - that toxic dye got in my eyes and it was SO painful. She washed my eyes out with saline like 6 times because I demanded it but they still stung. She never apologized - just "yep, it stings don't it", like I was some sort of torture subject. I don't think she was properly trained! I have had my brows and lashes tinted dozens of times in other salons and sure there is a little sting but the esthetitian knows how to carefully remove the dye so that the sting is minimal and she is compassionate and thorough with the saline. I don't think this woman got all the dye out because my eyes still stung for the rest of the day and into the night, extra dry, red on the inside of the eyelid... 3 days later my eyes are still recovering. Google says the dyes are not FDA approved and can cause serious damage to the eyes - I was freaking out. The place is cute but I would NEVER go here again.

    I am writing to share my experience following a service appointment at this location. I received a…read moremale Brazilian and full butt wax yesterday, and my esthetician was Reagan. The service itself was performed well, and I was satisfied with the quality of the wax. However, the subsequent events have caused significant disappointment and lead me to strongly advise caution to other male clients. The day after my service, I was unexpectedly contacted by the manager and informed that I was banned from the establishment due to an "inappropriate conversation" with the esthetician. This notification was perplexing, as the conversation in question was initiated by the esthetician's small talk. During the service, Reagan asked about my weekend plans. When I initially mentioned that the plans were personal, she indicated that was acceptable. I then shared that my wife and I planned to visit The Scarlet Ranch, a known lifestyle club. As my wife and I are open about our lifestyle, I was willing to engage in general, surface-level discussion. Reagan continued to actively participate, asking multiple follow-up questions about the club's atmosphere, membership fees, types of events, and clientele. I was careful to keep my responses strictly professional and non-sexual, focusing on logistical and social aspects. At no point during this sustained conversation did the esthetician indicate that she felt uncomfortable or ask to change the subject. Therefore, receiving a call informing me I was banned--and being told by the manager that the conversation was "inappropriate to have while getting a male Brazilian"--was a significant surprise. It seems highly unprofessional to ban a paying customer without the service provider communicating any discomfort during the interaction. Feedback on Communication and Professionalism: For the management and staff: Professional protocol dictates that if a client's conversation makes a staff member uncomfortable, the staff member must clearly and politely redirect or end the topic of conversation. Customers cannot be expected to know a provider's boundaries, especially when the provider is actively engaging and asking follow-up questions. A simple, "I prefer to keep our conversation limited to the service," would have been sufficient and professional. This lack of professional communication has resulted in the loss of a repeat client and has created an unnecessarily unpleasant experience. I urge management to review their policies on staff interaction and boundary setting. Recommendation for Male Clients: Due to this experience, I do not recommend this establishment for males seeking a Brazilian wax. While the technique was good, the overall lack of staff maturity and professionalism in handling client conversations is concerning. Prospective clients might consider alternatives like European Wax Center for a lower-cost option. I hope this feedback leads to better communication practices so that other clients do not feel targeted or confused in the future.

    If you're a man of Mediterranean descent, body hair is not a lifestyle choice. It's a birthright…read more As a Greek man, my ancestors were herding goats on mountainsides looking like walking Brillo pads. So walking into European Wax Center to have strangers rip hair out of my shoulders feels... culturally complicated. My people did not survive centuries of history just for me to wake up one day and say, "You know what would be fun? Let's pour hot wax on my body and rip out my follicles like I'm preparing for the Olympics." And yet... here I am. European Wax Center is clean, efficient, and very easy to book online. Which is great, because it means you never have to call a stranger and say the sentence: "Hello, I'd like to schedule some aggressive hair removal." You check in and within minutes someone is calmly spreading hot wax on you like they're frosting a cake. A cake that is unfortunately attached to your shoulders. Then comes the rip. Somewhere deep inside, my inner Greek barbarian wants to roar and run back into the mountains. Instead I sit there quietly thinking, "Ah yes... this is how the modern man suffers." The staff are nice and professional, though the vibe is definitely efficient rather than spa-day indulgence. This is less "luxury relaxation" and more "well-run hair removal logistics operation." I respect that. Huge bonus: I can walk there. Few things are more humbling than casually strolling down the street knowing you're about to pay someone to violently remove your fur. For the record, I am not going full dolphin. The chest hair stays. That's protected territory. Bear energy must remain somewhere. ;) This is simply about taming the wilderness so I don't look like I'm wearing an invisible sweater. Final verdict: Clean. Fast. Convenient. My inner Greek barbarian hates every second of it. But my summer shirts are thriving.
