Quick and efficient. Really small nail salon, but it does get pretty busy depending on when you come in.

Water and stones heated to scalding. Polish application GOOPY and not precise. Don't waste your money. You leave looking worse. So sad.

Quick, and affordable. My go to spot the past 6 months ! All the girls are good, Michelle is the best in my opinion. read more

Lasting Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Fast. Empty after work hours ( which was perfect). Did a good job on my nails. The nail tech did not talk much, but then later warmed up a little bit. I personally love being able to get my nails done in peace and quiet but also, I was a little disappointed about there color options. I wanted a darker maroon/ burgundy, but ended up getting a Christmas red in The middle of summer ... but he didn't cut me or mess up my shape! And with a group-on, I most definitely will go back again! read more

First time there, didn't leave with what I wanted but that's OK. Super busy kind of seemed like they were rushing to just get me done. And I'm pretty sure I won't be coming back anytime soon. Also they had people waiting for 45+ minutes even tho they had an appointment. read more

Lasting Nails - Ombré - Nail Salons Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

The first time was using a groupon. You would think the staff would want to make a lasting impression to keep you coming back....Not the case. I called ahead and made an appointment. I expressed my needs and the Groupon offer I had. Came in and was NOT greeted by any of the staff. I waited at the desk a few minutes and a man came from the back and "motioned" for me to sit down. No words were spoken. I expressed the reason for my visit and presented the Groupon up front. He only nodded his head and started working on my nails. Keep in mind the reason for my visit was a Pedicure and a full set (acrylic) with Gel Polish. A few minutes in a young lady walked up to the employee, speaking in another language and laughed. She exclaimed "Ooops" with a smile. She motioned me to a pedicure chair and another employee began the prep for my feet. The water was HOT. I said so. She motioned me to put my feet in and when I said "NO, It's HOT"...she grabbed my leg and tried to put my foot in the water. I obviously resisted. Once the water was cool, I placed my feet in and pedicure commenced. It was "okay" but rough. My nails, welp... they were done but mediocre at best. I paid with the groupon and left no tip. I WILL NOT be coming back. My impression was, I got the service the groupon paid for and nothing more. NO conversation to be had. No customer service provided. Save your nails and toes for another shop. This one will never get my business or recommendation. read more

If I could zero stars I would! I have never been to a nail salon so rude in my life. Called ahead to see if they were busy, the woman said after 5 would be fine. Showed up at 520 and was refused service saying I was late. I didn't make an appointment just asked if it was busy and they had time. I proceeded to explain there was an accident on 5 and I was sorry. Still refused service even though there were 3 women working and only one customer in the salon. I was so confused. The women was so rude to me and I just left. Will never be back. read more

I'm still on the fence about this place. my first full set was good my fill was not great crooked and not even dry. second fill was great. Sooo. read more

Located in a very humble area. Service was great! My shellac manicure, in particular, was done VERY well. Very smooth with even layers that don't cause the extra bubbles by the cuticles. I plan to come back. Thank you so much! read more

2 stars instead of 1 because the two women who gave my sister and I pedicures were really nice and attentive. I purchased two Groupon deals for shellac manis and pedis for my sisters birthday. I should have looked this place up before we went! It was so unsanitary I was scared to get a pedi here. There was dust from the nails they worked on in the seat right before I sat in it. I don't think they wiped the seat down or cleaned out the pedi tub after use. My sisters pedicure was really nice and enjoyable for her, but the manicure was really rushed and the application of polish was not the best. They were working on her nails while she was sitting in the pedicure chair and got nail clippings and whatnot all over her and her clothes. I was bummed out because I'm not from the area but wanted to take my sister out for a girls day, and this definitely wasn't what I expected. It's a very chaotic environment and if you want to relax, this is not the place. I went to cosmetology school and learned very well about sanitary practices, and there was so much nasty stuff going on, I couldn't keep track of it all. No matter the deal, I highly suggest not going to this place. read more

Pedicure quality is bad and look at this nasty surprise i got. She cut out the skin around the cuticle of my toe and created this huge gap that she didn't cleanup and got infected afterwards read more

This place has always been unprofessional. I was 18 when I stopped coming because Kenny got upset and walked away from me because he couldn't get my nails right. At 26 I decided to try again because they're under new management. At first it was great, let me correct myself. The nails were great. Michelle always does my nails and it always seems like Michelle hates her job. She seems like she's in a bad mood, she does not smile, she does not talk, she looks mad every time I see her she looks like she hates her life and maybe she does but that doesn't have anything to do with me. I could've swore when you have a job all that gets left outside the door but okay. Here's my nails today. One hand was obviously more rushed than the other. She didn't wanna take the time to give me a fresh new set so she painted over dark green powder with a light pastel orange and didn't even lay it out even. I trusted her with my nails and with her idea of laying a pastel ass color over some dark ass green and not only did she rush through it, attitude included, she failed lol. Horribly. Stop offering thin line designs if you don't have steady hands. THE only reason I didn't say anything is because it would've resulted in something way worse seeing that I was already having a bad day lol. I know how y'all get when black people raise their voices. So I'll just leave a review instead. Perfect your craft Michelle cause your thin lines suck ass, respectfully. Here's what I asked for vs what I got. And I will not be coming back. The only respectable nice worker in there is AMY. PERIOD. She has a wonderful attitude and she's always nice and seems like she loves what she does even if she may not. I will discontinue recommending people to come here. And y'all need to get more gel color options TOO! while I'm at it. remodel the whole got damn ghetto ass shop tbh. read more

I took my mom here for her birthday and was pleasantly surprise. I've been back twice now in the last 2 months. I would recommend making an appointment to best get in quickly. Nice ladies. They do a good job. Not the best I've seen but pretty decent for the price. I got a mani and pedi with gel for my nails for $50. I like their pedi, they use hot stone to massage your legs. They also offer coupons on apps! read more

I got a Groupon so I could try out this place. Shellac manicure and pedicure for $35 on Groupon. Wasn't expecting much but I can honestly say I'm pleasantly surprised. Mary did my pedicure. She was freakin awesome. Hands down best pedicure I've ever gotten in Tacoma. Two ppl worked on my nails and the were both awesome. I'm happy. If you are looking for a change try there Groupon and I promise you'll be hooked after your first visit. read more

Literally the worst pedicure I've ever had. I had a poor experience a couple of years ago, but figured I'd give them another chance...bad idea. Absolute waste of money. $30 to soak my feet in water and have my toenails poorly painted. I could have done that at home. The techs were unfriendly as well. I'll definitely never go back. read more

Charging too much for the decal makes you do them yourself. Which wasn't too hard. I like how Michelle does my nails when she's having a good day but I do not like the customer service. I come in and say hello and give them compliments you get nothing you say thank you you get nothing I just don't understand that part. read more

Came in for a much needed acrylic fill and Michelle saved my nails! She's super attentive to detail, unlike the place I went to for my full set. I can't get over how cute my nails look now! Great quality for the price. I paid $25 for a fill including gel, before tip. Michelle also assured me that if any nails break soon, she'll fix them for free! I plan to come back here every weekend I visit home from UW. It's probably best to come during daylight as there are some sketchy characters around the plaza at night, but none have bothered me thus far. Also, their Facebook page has more reviews and pictures than Yelp so check there too! ignore my dry cuticles read more

I went to Lasting Nails only because I bought a Groupon deal for a gel manicure. I hadn't been there before so I wanted to check it out. I won't go back, Groupon deal or not. The place is filthy, has cheap run down furniture, and is not located in an ideal spot in town...the definition of ghetto. The 2nd star is only for the work Ann did, which was done well. read more

i got there at two because i made an appointment with michelle. i saw a bunch of reviews that she did good work and i can say she did an amazing job. i'll include my reference picture and how they turned out. they're not the exactly the same but they're still cute. i only give it a 4/5 because it was a rather awkward experience but otherwise it was fast and cheap!! would recommend (: read more

Daughter and I went for sometime together. We bought a groupon. The place is unsanitary and disgusting. Health Dept should look into it. They sat us in chairs and water was cold and no vibration to the chair. After 20 min they came and put blue powder in the water. The staff was busy eating together. It wasn't until we dried off feet and walking out did they say anything to us.BUYER BEWARE! There are plenty of nail salons. Try a different one read more

I purchased a Groupon for Shellac polish $19. I was able to get right in, the salon appeared to be clean. I showed them a picture of the color and style ombré and asked if they could do it which they replied they did. The leader gave the artist a powder dip color which appeared to me was way too bright. They assured me it would be fine. nail artist was super sweet but obviously wasn't experienced with this and my finger nails were uneven in color, had the color everywhere including packed underneath my nails. I told her I wasn't happy and asked her to fix a couple of nails. She said because they were my real nails, they'd have to file off the polish which would ruin my nails. I told her I wanted 2 fixed. Honestly it poked like my 5 year old granddaughter did it! After the leader heard me complaining about it, she asked to see Groupon, inactivated it and tod me $20 extra for the ombré. I knew it would cost extra, but $20??? I told her I was unhappy sndcthe now $40 nail job was unprofessional and I wasn't happy. She grabbed at my hands, filed a few down and fixed them the best she could without doing the entire thing over again. She was pissed and it was obvious. I got no apology, no discount and was told next time I come in I'd get a 10pct discount. I told her I wouldn't be in again. I went home and tried to clean up my nails, digging color out from underneath. I emailed the salon and told them how disappointed I was and it wasn't worth the money and time I spent there (4:15-6:45). I was giving them a chance to make it right. But two days after I have yet to get a response. Note the photo I showed them I wanted. The two others is what I got. read more

The place is clean, which is nice. But beyond that, I wasn't really happy. The girl who was working on my pedicure was going through the normal steps, but wasn't really doing them. I had to ask several times to shape, cut excess cuticle, etc. They started doing the hot rock massage and the woman burned me so another person took over which was better, but ultimately was rushing because 2 people came in. I don't think I'll come here again. read more

This was my second time going here to get my nails done and again I'm very impressed with how it turned out today. I came in at opening and got my fill done by a younger lady and I loved how she took her time and made sure the shape was good. It's hard to find a salon that does a good coffin shape and I think I found the one! The only issue I had was that the lady did not use the tool to file my real nail under the acrylic. But overall I do recommend them! read more

Sometimes times heals all wounds, sometimes it doesn't. I've had my acrylic nails for 16 years now. I went to this business for several years but then I stopped going, and couldn't even tell you why. I think I can consider myself well versed in what to expect, and what not to in the land of mani / pedis / nails. Recently, I decided it was time to removes my nails. I had shellac on them. I told them it was time to take them off. I visioned this to be a soaking them off type job and willing to pay for it. NOT It ended up being a ripping and prying them off till they left holes in my nail bed that went all the way into the meat under the nail. If you hurry, you can still see the damage. Then she has the nerve to put POLISH on top of them. Do you have any clue how bad that hurts? THEN she had the nerve to blame me for having thin nails. Now I remember why I left them before. read more

I highly recommend Lasting Nails! I have been going to lasting nails since I moved to Tacoma two years ago. The girls here do an amazing job. You can go in with an image and they are able to Re-create it. They are also very good with freehand styles. If you're looking for a new nail salon, Look no further! Because if they're great quality, they tend to get very busy. It is worth the wait or make an appointment because you won't be disappointed! Thank you Michelle, Quinn, and Mai for always taking great care of me! read more

I recently moved to Tacoma after getting married and have went to a ton of shops. I'm very picky about how my nails are done as I've been getting acrylics for over ten years. Most nail shops are a nightmare. Mona does a great job with acrylics. She even puts up with my picky self which most places aren't as respectful. Yeah they got a cute little shop dog. I like him. They aren't unsanitary. They have autoclaves and do not reuse the essential products. read more
