4 weeks of grow out you can see how lumpy the application was
Shannon L.

I've been coming here for a few months. Each and every time they will service the walk in over anyone that has made an appointment (me, in this case). What's the point of making an appointment? Last time I asked for tips and a dip mani and the tech gave me acrylic. I brought it to her attention and she said it was better with acrylic instead of starting over. The manicure was rushed and it showed. The acrylic was lumpy, the way the tech filed my nails was incredibly crooked. There was no time to ask her to re-do it because when I washed my hands, someone else was in my seat and she was already working on their nails. Wish they would give more individualized attention to their guests instead of just churning them out as quickly as possible.

French tip mani pedi. I have gotten nonstop compliments. I have easily distracted people with this cute but simple set!

I have been going here for a few months now. I absolutely love it. My first time I felt like a queen, one person was doing my mani and another my pedi. Done in a decent amount of time to spare. I haven't tried acrylic here yet! I have only been doing gel on both

Always clean, professional & creative. I've been to many nails places but HQ Nails takes pride in their work. Whether you like dip, acrylic , gel or just a nice manicure you have come check them out. Tina is my go to nail person!!! I'm ready for 5th for July.

Dip nails started lifting yesterday ...and just started popping off after 4days. $60 down the drain.

Im a stay at home mother and I don't treat myself often but my husband insisted I pampered myself for once. I just wanted a gel manicure. But the nail tech recommended dip instead because it's stronger and last longer. Welp as you can see the dip is popping off and the rest are lifting and will be popping off soon. Very disappointed. $50 is what I was charged and I tipped $10. Oh did I mention I got this Tuesday and today is Saturday. I think press ons from Walmart last longer than that. Very disappointed. And my husband is very upset. Save your money. Don't go here.

Since moving to Tucson in January, I've had my nails done so many places. Nails HQ is the winner! The ombré is dope and everyone is so nice. Small salon, no frills, gorgeous nails, reasonable prices! Crystal did these lovelies.

I just moved to Tucson and this was the first nail place I have ever been here and will become my regular shop from here on out. They just opened and the quality of their work is amazing and such a relaxing experience overall. The location is great and they have tons of different colors and services to choose from! Highly recommend checking this place out, these woman are the sweetest and their laughter is infectious!

Honestly the best nail service I've had in a very long time. Kiu did an amazing job on me. She was very sweet and paid very close attention to detail on my gel mani. She was very efficient and made sure each nail looked perfect. From the beginning to end it was just a perfect and peaceful experience. When she had finished my nails she gave me a hand and arm massage with lotion which was so relaxing and very much appreciated. Also not to mention the pricing is very good! Thank you guys so much!!

I went to this salon for the first time last night. Honestly, this was the best mani/pedi combo I have had in Tucson since I moved to the SW side of town. My first impression was this is a very no frills salon, e.g., older massage chairs, nothing inside was very flashy, but everything was clean. I was very impressed by the Deluxe pedicure and the massage time on both the sugar scrub portion and the lotion part at the end. The gal who seemed to be running the place really knew what she was doing regarding timing of who came in and how quickly to attend to each person. She wrapped my nails and shaped them while I was still getting my pedicure which cut the whole process down by 30 minutes. She also chose a dip color for me that is now my favorite color and let me take a picture of the color. Lastly, they have a rewards program, I feel I should have gotten 2 stamps because my service was $100, but when I do fill the card it's a whole $20 off! I will definitely be back, probably every time I get my nails done.

Lilac gel mani

This is the best my hands have looked in a long time! Sweet staff and very skilled! This spa accommodated me as a walk in and I was seated immediately. Not only did the nail technician create a friendly atmosphere, she also paid extreme attention to my nails. Thanks again, Nails HQ!

They do a great job for the price on my powder dip nails. I have tired several places in Tucson best so far at this price point.

First, I love Eminence products and this is one salon in Tucson that has this amazing brand! I…read morefound out about this brand after having a facial here. Love at first application. Emily, the aesthetician, is awesome and gives recommendations that best suit your skin needs. The power peel facial is my favorite! Also, the decor is just girly glam. Greentoes is a great way to pamper yourself whether it be a pedicure/manicure, facial or massage. PS Best pedicure I have ever had is here! Doesn't matter who you book with as all the technicians are professional and friendly. I usually just get a regular manicure and they last a week! I have pets and dump out cat boxes and pick up dog poo, hence a lot of hand washing and still the lacquer lasts!

It's pretty rare to find a place that doesn't use conventional chemicals in their manicures and…read morepedicures. That's what drew me to Greentoes. While it's true that they are more expensive than conventional nail salons, there's a reason for that. You'll also need to book pretty far in advance if you are looking for a certain time of day, for example a weekday morning. I'm not someone who gets my nails done on a regular basis, it's kind of just a special occasion type of thing. And also results will vary just depending on the technician you get. I've seen at least three different people there and the end result is always different. Generally though, if you are looking for a place to go that offers options that are better than the super-toxic options, this is a place to check out.
