Friendly, but no hot water for my pedicure. Daughter got a mani, I'll wait for my services. It is clean and well organized, but can't really evaluate services. read more

Experience multiple times now have gone way downhill. Would not recommend. Once when I had an appointment they went over with someone else and weren't able to complete my service. Today we walked in for the 'men's haircut' they advertise and despite hardly anyone being in there they were 'busy' and didn't even say 'wait 5, 10 minutes' ‍ read more

Highly recommend King's Salon and Spa. Tracie, put me to sleep during my pedicure. Very relaxing with great results.

Horrible experience. Poor service. Understaffed! Limited supply of name brand polish like OPI. Asked for pedicure design. Initially told yes. Then when time to do the design, I was told the technician didn't have time and the other technician could only do polka dots. I left without design when getting a toe design is the primary reason I like pedicures done at salons! I will never go back. read more

I had a mani and pedi. They did a great job. The salon is very light and bright. The technicians were friendly and attentive. It was a very pleasant experience read more

Extremely bad. I went to this salon for years until this happened last time I got my nails done over the summer. The technician asked if I wanted long or short nails. I said long. She then proceeded to rush carelessly and aggressively through it. I said something to her because she was not only doing a very bad job on my nails, but also hurting my cuticles. The more I said anything to her about the work she was doing, the more it seemed to get worse. I made a comment to her about it hurting, and she replied with "well you should have let me know when you made the appointment that you wanted long nails because I have someone else waiting and I didn't have time to do long nails." I honestly would have been fine with short nails if she told me that from the beginning, so I don't understand why she offered it if she didn't have time. I was practically in tears before it ended. When I tried to get my money back the next day, she tried to say it was my fault it turned out like that because "I wouldn't stay still" which was absolutely not true. I might have winced AFTER she had already made multiple cuticles bleed. I was absolutely speechless that she let me walk out with my nails looking like this. It's sad because this has always been my go-to nail salon, but now I will never go back. read more

My daughter and I went here for nail services on June 1, 2022. I got gel manicure and regular pedi, and she an acrylic fill with gel polish. The bill was $110, when just down the road it was $120 for a full set for her, then gel mani, regular pedi, and eyebrow wax for myself. My nails look like my young niece did them. The sides have no polish, some of my skin still has polish not cleaned off. The tools were not sterilized. I would not recommend this nail salon as it was an overall unprofessional experience. read more

I rarely give nail salons a shout because it bores me , quite frankly. Id much rather discuss anything OTHER than an activity where I am forced to sit still at length and pretend I dig it. I HATE GETTING MY NAILS AND TOES DONE! LOL I only do it because I like the result, but my ADHD usually finds this process to be EXCRUCIATING! :) Having gotten that outta my system, this lil place out in the boonies of Silver Spring, deserves a shout for one technician. Sara. Ive gone to hundreds of nail shops, had scads of nail techs and believe me when I say it is hard to find a tech that can replicate all the cool crap you all see on pinterest or the latest Real Housewife, LOL but Sara can pretty much duplicate any design you bring her, and well. She amazed me with the ability to leap from conservative monochromatic nails for work, to the absolute latest in colorful, over the top ratchetness for my trip to the carribbean. :) My favorite part...SHE IS SUPER FAST! I LOOOOOOOVE a nail technician that can do some kick ass nails annnd not have you sitting there for 10 years while they try to sculpt the perfect shape. I find that SOOOO frustrating. I dont want to spend more than 2 hours at a nail salon, and she manages even if she has more than one client. On top of being very sweet and extremely professional which is always nice. Location is ANNOYING. I mean its in Colesville, (where????) ...which is OUT THERE to say the least, but if you live out that way, like I do, you will be glad theyre there. All the other techs seem to get glowing reviews as well, but You cant lose with Sara for those special requests, so give her a shot. 4/5 stars instead of 5 ONLY because of wait time on weekends v. the drive. :) read more

This is my go-to nail salon when I visit my parents. I recommend them except for the gentleman who works there. Unfortunately, he cut my cuticle in such a way that I was left bleeding for longer than the usual little cuts I've gotten from time to time (rarely) over the years. When I kindly asked for some form of discount by way of a future gift cert for my mom, who's a regular, they said no and explained to the best of my understanding that this just happens. I tried to give them a chance to rectify the situation since we are regulars, but I take it they would rather just lose a customer. read more

King's Salon and Spa - Day Spas Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

I went in to get a full set of acrylics removed. I'm convinced the lady had no idea what she was doing she tried to send me off with visible acrylic stuff still on my nails. She used the electric file way too much and now my nails are super thin. And there's still acrylic on the rest of them. I won't be coming back. Oh. And she first tried to remove the acrylics by PRYING them off of my fingers. Ouch. I thought I was going to lose a nail! read more

King's Salon and Spa - My poorly done nails. - Day Spas Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

Absolutely terrible service. The lady helping me took forever to come help, she was too preoccupied with her phone, she rushed through my manicure and CUT my fingers. Stay away from here. read more

the owners are horrible, they don't clean their equip and children at the salon? They encourage their employees to rush so they move on to the next customer and make more of a profit. It's clean in some areas but the pedicure area is gross. They have broken down chairs and then don't thoroughly clean their equipment. I personally fear getting a fungal infection with the high incidence of fungal infections, so I would hope you clean the tub and metal equip with strong disinfectant! Please don't just rinse with water, it's gross. Thirdly, owner brought toddler in, she couldn't effectively run because she was chancing child around! It was not relaxing, child crying, being rushed and noticing the ill cleansing of equipment. GROSS Employees are wonderful! So helpful and nice :) if only the owners could change! read more

I went in for a pedicure with two other people on the weekend. Bad idea without an appointment, apparently - they only had a few people working there, and obviously couldn't handle the amount of customers they had. They probably had every single pedicure chair taken (about nine or more), with only three ladies working on pedicures. So they would start on one person, stop, move to another, work on them for a bit, move on to another, etc. Or they would wander off to eat some food or talk on the phone and then come back. It was pretty ridiculous. I sat at the pedicure station for a good twenty minutes or more before someone started on me. Personally I would have preferred for them to have waited to start until they could devote their full attention to me, or I would have appreciated it if they had told me they were too busy to take our group without an appointment. In the end only two people in our party ended up getting what they came in for because it took so long, and the final person just didn't feel like waiting any longer. I would consider going back, but I would not walk in again without an appointment. The pedicure itself was good and a decent price ($25), but the customer service was definitely lacking. Also, this is my bias, but the bible quotes on the door (from "P.Salms") were kind of silly. read more

Book Linda !! Linda is who i go to for acrylics but when i get gel on my real nails a man does it. They'll know who you mean if you just ask for the man who does gel. The salon is real big and clean. read more

King's Salon and Spa - Day Spas Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

I used to go here when I lived closer to it. There are some great manicurists there especially Jackie. But I had too many times of sitting a long while since calls were coming in and multiple management needs would pop up during my services. A little too much going on there. And so the service became a disjointed and long session. I moved so it would be too far at this point. Hope they iron out the logistics and management. read more

They are pretty fast. It isn't as relaxing as other salons though, due mostly to the presence of the staff's children most of the time. I have kids and love kids, but I go the salon and pay to have my nails done in order to have some "me time," and I'd rather not listen to my manicurist argue with her daughter while I'm getting my nails done. read more

Last two times I came in, it was packed with only four or five people working. Didn't tell me to come back in a few hours, didn't ask me if I wanted to make an appointment or later or the next day, nothing. Instead they decided to tell me to get a color and sit in a chair. I was there maybe an hour and half before I decided to leave. Last remark that was said was "see. Make an appointment next time" with a hint of snarky attitude. Went back in maybe two weeks ago, paid $30 for a mediocre pedicure. Prices went up $10 within the last two years. Not coming back again. read more

This place is great. I've been going here for years for all my "nail needs," along with a bunch of other family members who also love this place. The woman I get my pedicures done by is AMAZING, but sorry can't say here name for fear that she will get even more booked up than she is now, but several of the other ladies here are not as great. There are about 3 really good nail techs who consistently do a great job and then there are the rest who just want to get through your pedicure and manicure as fast as possible which really does not bode well with the whole relaxing vibe. Easy fix: find a woman you like and stick with her! Avoid walk-ins, schedule an appointment (even an hour before) with someone you like and there won't be any problem. The lady I have doing my nails always gives me AT LEAST a 20 minute foot massage without charging me any extra. Of course, I tip her well for her time. The SPA pedicures are $25 and the mani/pedi is $35. Secret: on the back of their business card is a rewards program. Get them to initial your card every time you go to work your way up to a free manicure. But remember to ask because they WON'T tell you which is sometimes a bummer if you forget...especially if you are a regular customer like me. The feel of the salon is nice and clean and everything is up to date here. Instead of doing just a regular pedicure, they do a spa pedicure which includes bath salt in the water, exfoliate for your legs, and then an oil and lotion massage. I do not know where the "garage sale" theory came from but they have not been open for more than like 6 years and their pedicure chairs and manicure stations are very nice and not "garage sale-y" at all. There are separate rooms for massage and facials and the hair cutting stations are on the other side of the pedicure stations. The salon could definitely use a couple new shipments of nail polish though. And they really need to stop thinning the polish out with whatever they put into the polish bottles....they will even do it right in front of you! Cheap alert!! This salon is just like any other salon in the area. Mostly Asians workers so not much conversation, though I prefer to read rather than talk, and not the best customer service because of the language barrier. Yes, I have seen techs stop to pick up their phones several times, but it has never really bothered me. I honestly would never go to a nail salon to get waxed (actually I wouldn't do waxing at all anymore), but to each it's own. Tip to the other reviewer - try threading instead if you want a precise brow because waxing always ends up on the thin side. Bottom line: Nice salon for any nail service. Find a particular person you like and stick to her. Call for an appointment to avoid any wait time (which is unusual) and if at all possible bring your own polish so it lasts longer. read more

Wow I don't know who wrote that one star review but I totally disagree. Tracy has done my highlights for some time now. I have had my eyebrows done there by a few different people there. And I got a bikini wax there. My mom got her eyebrows done there too and was happy with the result. the staff is very friendly, the furniture is fine - I really didn't notice it, I have no idea what the other reviewer meant by yard sale furniture. Overall I am very happy with King Salon and especially Tracy. I went to several different salons over the years looking for someone who could get my highlights the right shade, and Tracy is the only one who can do it. It isn't absurdly expensive like the salons in downtown Silver Spring either. I really felt the need to recommend this place especially after the other review which is clearly from someone who doesn't go there very often like I do. Oops, I put this under my husband's yelp account. I'm Susanne. read more

I love this place! The pedis are super thorough and I have never left disappointed. Mimi is the best. The staff are friendly and chatty. I gave 4 stars just because its not the best place for walk-ins. Make an appointment because the place is pretty busy and full of regulars on the daily. read more

I've always had a great experience with both nails and eyebrow waxing. Very sweet women that really seem to care about their service.

I definitely would not recommend this nail salon to anyone. Go at your own risk! I went here on Mother's day 2017 and I am mad that I stepped foot in the place. I asked for a silk wrap with nails, but I was persuaded to go without nails which was fine with me. I got to the salon at about 4pm and there was 1 lady waiting to get her nails done and 2 or 3 people getting pedicures. The manager tells me where I can sit and I wait for her to come start my nails. The manager proceeds with my silk wrap which takes until about 6:15/6:30pm. I waited all that time and for my nails to turn out jacked up! She applied a lot of polish to my nails and you could see a bubble on at least 2 nails. Plus there was nail glue stuck under most of my nails that I could not remove. I had dinner plans with my family for Mother's day so I just sat and let my nails dry and left. The manager is in a rush to leave to spend Mothers day with her kids so she rushed through the completion of my nails. I called the salon the next day and spoke with the same manager, who remembered me, and let her know I was not satisfied and my nails were messed up. We set up a date and time for me to go to the salon for her to fix my nails that Tuesday. When I get to the salon on Tuesday the manager removes the polish on my nails, very sloppily, and paints them again, even worse this time around! She makes a half butt attempt to file away the nail glue under my nails and that didn't help. Needless to say, 5 days later I ended up soaking my hands in acetone to get the glue off my nails and fingers. I deeply regret stepping foot in that place! I would never recommend this place to anyone! read more

I'm very happy with King Salon. Tracy has done my highlights for a few years now, and she does a great job. It took me a long time to find a place around here that does a good job making my hair look lighter and natural. The price is much better than I paid in DT Silver Spring too. I have also had my eyebrows waxed there several times and was very happy with the work. I highly recommend them. Friendly, accommodating and easy to get an appointment when you want one. read more

King's Salon and Spa is great. I go to Tracy for my facials, fill-ins, pedicures, and waxing. I call her before hand to make an appointment because she has many clients, and its so worth it! The facial was sort of painful during the extraction, but my face felt so refreshed after wards and excellent for $65. The fill ins are $15 for regular and $20 for french, and ever since I've been going here, my nails haven't chipped. The pedicures are relaxing and thorough for $25. I used to go to Lynn's Nails in Burtonsville, but they've changed staff and have gotten so crowded and overbooked recently that I started going to King's Salon which had a less hectic and more serene atmosphere. My mom told me about this place and so far so good! read more

Will definitely be back to see Jackie! She made me feel very comfortable and at ease! Glad I stopped in...will definitely be a regular customer if service continues at this pace!! read more

I recently came here for the first time. The nail tech was courteous and shaped my nails nicely. I left with a smile.

The place is amazing, the owner will make you feel like your home. She done an amazing job on my GF feet with care and love. We appreciate you read more

I continually go to the salon to see my favorite stylist. Unfortunately I found out she had "retired," according to the salon. WRONG! I luckily was able to contact Lisa and learned that she had changed salons! I definitely don't like the disinformation from the salon and will not be returning. read more

Frankly, I'm really surprised to see so many reviews that say the employees are nice. Many of them are not friendly at all. The person who is assigned to you usually gives no eye contact, no greeting, no acknowledgment whatsoever. Just asks for your foot! Also, if they're not happy with you they start talking in another language to the other employees. Incredibly unprofessional. This has happened on more than one occasion. I would go in for the convenience of location but no more. read more

This was my second time coming. I came for the first time last year and had a good experience. So I figured I would treat myself before my wedding. I typically do my nails at home. I have my own gel machine and get compliments on my nails very often. I called ahead two weeks in advance to make an appointment for three people. Got to the place and only two people were there and one of them was already working with a client. I asked Linda (who did my nails) if others were coming in. She kept saying they were on their way. Linda and Tracy were very nice trying their best to help the three of us. I said something to the owner Jackie about them taking other people before the rest of my party. Her comment was they have appointments. I kindly reminded her that we also had appointments and it wasnt right they were taking walk ins prior to finishing us. She completely brushed me off and was rushing Linda. I think Linda was trying her best but the paint job was not good and I didn't even realize that she actually messed up the pattern and reversed it on the one hand so now the nails don't match. Needless to say I will not be returning. Save your money and go somewhere else. read more

I live near Kings Salon and have used them 2-3 times a year for manicures and pedicures. I would go more often if they properly cleaned instruments and the tubs for pedicures. As other reviewers mention this and the fact that customers can be rushed when the salon has walk-ins. They have a nice open salon with plenty of room, Shame they do not clean properly and have their walk-ins wait for those like me who schedule appointments. I would be go there more often. I hope the owner read this- your pedicure tubs are pretty gross, from the time you opened 6 years ago or so.By the way the employees are very nice and somewhat professional. Again, I would use this salon more often if they cleaned everything according to health standards that are required! read more

"King's" Salon is horrible. DO NOT GO HERE. First of all, the service is atrocious. There is never anyone at the front desk, so you just have to stand around awkwardly and try to get someone's attention. One time, I was ignored for 10 minutes and actually left. I went back today in desperation because I didn't feel like driving out to Columbia to go to my usual place. What a mistake. The woman totally screwed up my eyebrows. I am so pissed off. They look terrible- a 5 year old could have done a better wax job. And in the middle of waxing them, the idiot walked off to answer a phone call. Um, excuse me?! What kind of pathetic service is this? And also, the place's decor is not attractive or relaxing the slightest. Everything looks dated and like random yard sale furniture was dragged in. Bottom line: go somewhere else for a spa experience, this place blows. read more

I'm giving one star because I've been a customer since they opened, 8(?) years ago. Kim has normally been fine for manis and pedis but the waxing was always done ONLY when I was in a time crunch. I had a lip wax done 2 days ago and now have blisters over my lip. I told them yesterday that I would visit my dermatologist tomorrow and if they've caused permanent damage I'll be suing. I don't trust ANY of their 'licenses', dead flyson the floor in the summer, snippy attitude from Tracy. Don't go! read more

I really like this place. I have been coming here for years. I am bugged because they are always trying to steal each other's clients. It's rude, unprofessional and makes me as a client uncomfortable. So stop it! If my go to technician is on vacation. Then I understand using someone else. But, don't ask me to come to you on a day Tracie doesn't work. Not nice! read more

I had an appointment for a friend and myself. A tecnician started on her pedicure and then left to work on soeone else -all while I sat and waitd. Then someone ben on me and two people on her which meant that she was done long before I was. The technician talked on the phone during my mancure. My gel started peeling in 3 days and my pediure looked good for about 4. The prices here are higher than others in the area and the results were horrible! Go elsewhere for a pedicre or manicure read more

I will never be back! Just returned from a pedicure. It was the most stressful pedicure I've ever had. The technician who did my nails must have had little or no experience. I was bleeding in at least 2 places before she finished. And I fear she almost ground through my nail using a Dremel tool. STAY AWAY! read more

Went to the salon today to have my eyebrows waxed. When the tech gave me the mirror, I noticed a reddish blue spot under my eyebrow and I asked her what happened. She kept saying she didn't see anything. I replied that the spot was obvious and she told me it was a mole that was already there. I told her it was not a mole and that I know what my face looks like. She continued to argue with me so the manager came over and said it was a bruise and that it would go away in a couple of days. I paid for the waxing and tipped as well (I know, stupid me). Later another small bruise appeared next to the other one. I read on the Internet that this can happen when the skin is not taut when the strip is pulled off and that it would not happen with an experienced tech. read more
