    something stained inside my gel nails
    Seohyun P.

    $40 + tip for this is crazy! I definitely could've done better at home. She was definitely inexperienced and should not be charging this much for this. The only reason it's 2 stars and not 1 is because she wasn't rude... TBH I do not think the girl that did my nails had any credentials to do nails at a salon. my mom said, did you go to your friend's house to do your nails? and my friend said, "no way you paid for that." sigh.

    1000/100 love love Amanda!! Hands down the best nail salon in the DMV! Their work is flawless--my nails always look stunning and speak for themselves. The attention to detail and creativity is unmatched. Highly recommend!

    I've gotten my nails done here over 4 times now and I cannot say enough good things about the service. The salon itself is very clean, and makes me feel comfortable. I've seen them sanitize stations/pedicure chairs between clients and consistently change out tools to prevent any sort of cross contamination between clients. The owner and staff are all attentive and knowledgeable at completing manicures and pedicures, even with outlandish designs. The pricing is reasonable and the amount of care each client is given is spectacular and I have yet to see or experience leaving disappointed or dissatisfied with my service. I've gotten acrylic and aprés, and had no problems with either. Elijah does an amazing pedicure and is gentle throughout the entire service. I can't say enough good things about Amanda and Mya, who create some awesome designs and have no problem replicating various designs off pinterest or instagram. Overall, I will be back and continue to use them for my nail services, as well as recommend them to all my friends and family.

    I highly recommend Samantha! Her work is outstanding--detailed, precise, and truly amazing. Her detail-oriented work is impressive. I get gel-x nails. I love that she has been able to work with every inspo pic I've shown her. She also does great pedicures. Her personality is super chill and sweet. The shop is always clean, and the owner is incredibly down to earth. Plus, I never have to wait. Five stars!

    Amanda and Mya are the best, most talented nail techs around! The salon is very clean and comfortable. I've been going to Amanda for years and would follow her all over the state if I needed to. The designs come out perfect every single time! If you're looking for a great experience and quality, you have to check them out!

    If you're not booking with Amanda what are you doing?! So professional and kind! I have never loved my nails more and will definitely be coming back!!

    Amazing service Amanda has the most creative ideas. I never leave disappointed and always ask for her opinion when I'm being indecisive.

    Must see Amanda at Katie's Nails! She is the best. I've been seeing her for years. She is nice, professional, & very talented - not to mention very easy going so you'll have a great time and conversation while getting your service. She can pretty much do any design that you ask for & it will always turn out great (& even better than the pictures I show her). She gives great pedicures too, along with Elijah. If she isn't available to do my feet at the time, he does them & does a great job as well!

    5 stars because they deserve it! Quality service with quality people. Just know you're in the atmosphere of the elite of the industry. I came in with a jacked up acrylic service and I walked out with premier nails! Thank you all for your service and hospitality. 5 stars!

    Amaya ATE DOWNNN with this short duck set everyone in the shop is super friendly and welcoming as well. Will definitely be back!

    Amanda is amazing! First of all she's the consummate professional. As soon as you arrive for your appointment, someone immediately starts your service. You're never kept waiting! After years of getting my nails done at various places throughout the years, I truly appreciate a nail tech that respects your time. Secondly, her meticulous attention to detail ensures that you always leave with flawless nails! She is so creative and I'm always so excited for whatever she comes up with for me! Prices are fair given the level of artistry and details. I highly recommend this shop!

    I went for a pedicure and I think I got a new inexperienced employee. I went there because of the great reviews. Will not go back.

    I recently visited The Nail Bar while in Maryland and had a fantastic experience. Tam did my nails,…read moreand I couldn't be happier. I'm currently growing out my nails, so I requested he keep the length while shaping and filing. He nailed it (pun intended)! The results were exactly what I wanted. I love my nails and highly recommend this salon! + my best friend also loved her pedicure + sanai, the receptionist (sorry if I spelled it wrong) helped me pick out my color and was really friendly

    I've been to this salon before, and that's actually what made this visit so disappointing because…read moremy previous experiences were much better. First, I want to give credit where it's due. The male technician who did my pedicure was excellent. He was professional, thorough, and did a great job. I have absolutely no complaints about the service he provided. Unfortunately, the condition of the salon during this visit made it difficult to relax. I saw roaches crawling on the seating area, which immediately raised concerns about cleanliness. There was also a spider in the salon that several employees were loudly talking about and trying to kill, which made for an uncomfortable atmosphere while clients were trying to enjoy their services. The biggest issue for me was watching a scrub product spill onto the workstation. Instead of discarding it, one of the technicians scooped it up with his bare hand and put it back into the bottle. Seeing a product that is used on clients' skin handled that way was very concerning and made me question the salon's sanitation practices. This experience was surprising because it wasn't like this during my previous visits. I hope this was just an off day and that management takes these concerns seriously. The technicians are talented, but cleanliness and proper sanitation are just as important as good customer service. At this point, I'm not sure if I'll return, which is unfortunate because I've had good experiences here in the past.

When we got there, we were greeted by the receptionist, and it was relatively empty in there. We had both booked for gel nails and then picked out our colors. Their prices were more than what was indicated online, so it was $40 for gel and then an additional $15 for catseye polish (note they do not have the magnets for designs, so it's just plain catseye). This was done on our natural nails. My experience went relatively smoothly and very quickly. I had Tina, who completed within 20 minutes of starting, but I'm thinking that may not have been a good thing. My gel nails usually last for 2 weeks or so without chipping or peeling off, but these were chipping by day 5 and about a week in, one had peeled so badly that my nail snapped in half. My friend was not started on til i was almost done. Her nail tech switched halfway through as well, and another nail tech came by and made rude remarks about her hands twice, saying that the nail design she wanted would look ugly on her. The nail polish needed another color to help it show up the way it looked on the display/bottle, and there was a lot of back and forth trying to get that right. In the end, they were able to figure out a way to get it to look right, but that added an extra 40 minutes to her nails. The receptionist was great and helped advocate for her to get the correct shade. I like the convenience of having a nail salon within walking distance, but I think I'll stick with my usual unless these things change. It's not worth the money for early chipping and rude remarks.
