The manicure was untidy, bad and hurtful. Instead of cleaning skin and cuticle, she trimmed my skin and it's really painful and looks ugly. What's worse, I let them know of the pain and dissatisfaction the following day and they just IGNORED me. I believe we can all make mistakes, but they should have shown some accountability, at least, an apology. read more

Called ahead and they squeezed me in for a Saturday evening manicure. Clean, friendly, good color choices, just what I was looking for.

It was great! Professional staff, very competent and friendly. The salon is very clean and nicely decorate. We enjoyed our pedicures!

I don't know why it has taken me so long to write a review for this place! I have been going here for 2 years. I always have a great experience when I am there. My nails are done well and I leave feeling relaxed. I have never left and been unhappy. All of the nail techs there are very talented. I have been seeing Heidi and she is always up for a challenge with me. I come to her with different ideas for nail art and she is always willing to try my ideas and she always pulls it off. I highly recommend going here. read more

I was told Gelx was offered and it was but I got my nails done Thursday. They all broke off Sunday evening.. picking up a bottle of water, taking the trash out and eating. $179 plus a $15 tip down the drain read more

I decided to treat myself for a pedi on my birthday. It was a Thursday afternoon and surprisingly busy! I had to wait a few minutes, no big deal. This is a smaller salon so make sure you come prepared to wait if necessary. The massage chairs are excellent. Seriously I'm dreaming about coming back even though my toes are still in good shape! The service was wonderful and I will definitely be back. One tip: credit card tips are not enabled, bring cash. read more

New owners. Ripping off previous customers of the spa by throwing away tool kits purchased previously and not reimbursing them. They didn't even make an effort to return them even though they have the customers info. I'm their machine at front desk. You are on your own. The four stars they have were given to previous management and staff who were wonderful. That is no more. I was a customer for 20 years. They lost my business . The new set up with crowded work stations and pedi chairs in an effort to squeeze in as many customers as possible make the place feel like a barn. Be warned. read more

Loved my nails I got acrylics with dip and they turned out great. I kept them on for two weeks and could have gone much longer. Service was also great, but it was fairly expensive. It is super nice inside and seems to be recently updated. read more

Best pedicure I've had in the McLean area! Here's my take: - They take walk-ins and can easily accommodate in a short time - Everything was very clean - The pedicure was thorough and the massage portion was amazing - The price wasn't scary I hope you enjoy! read more

My favorite for a pedicure. They are thorough and Dana does an excellent massage on my legs/feet. I've fallen asleep. I also like that it is a family business and the next generation (kids) are sometimes present and lovely to observe. read more

Great place but they have CNN running all the times, multiple TVs Too. Ruins the experience.

I absolutely love this nail salon!! I've been coming here for about a year now and they always do the most amazing job. I've gotten my nails and eyebrows done and the service and color choices they have are great! I'm definitely going to keep coming here and I 100% recommend!! read more

Staff is friendly, color selection is good. (Although they could stand to organize it a bit better) It's clean, the tools are all sterilized. Tammy is very good and very friendly, and her mani/pedis always last. Prices are fair. It's not a luxury place, but it's bright, clean, and a good place to get your nails done. read more

Going into my pedicure and manicure I had high hopes after reading the reviews but I was left unsatisfied.... When I got my pedicure 10 out of 10 great service clean nail paint job and was attentive to detail! When I got acrylics for my nails it was a different story, she was super quick going through the process and I even commented on it and she just laughed. When she finished up she just walked away and didn't say anything to me so I started looking on my nails and it was a mess... there was paint under my nails and uneven lines on the sides of nails and nail glue on my fingers. When I got home I had to fix my own nails to get them cleaned up and fixed. Extremely overpriced for not so good of a job. To sum it all up they charged me 85$ and got upset when I didn't tip more! read more

It was a great environment but little crowded. The staff was nice and talkative. They did my nails efficiently yet good quality. Didn't chip or break for about 3 weeks on gel manicure. read more

Over the years, I have been to various nail salons, but have never been truly happy with the results except for one salon in the Cheslea neighborhood of New York City. However, for the first time, I've found one near me! I have never been happier with any manicurist as I have been with Tammy. She is very professional and does a wonderful job. My French gel manicure lasted 2.5 weeks and the regular pedicure is still lasting at 3.5 weeks. Remember that this place does not allow you to pay the tip with a credit card, so bring enough cash for tip. read more

I come here before and I usually like the job they do not the last timesI made an appointment I did not get the person I chose and this time I waited a half hour after even though I had an appointment. Then when someone was available she was on the phone about an appointment while I waited. So good place of you have some time to kill and you don't care which person does your nails read more

The BEST EVER. I went in to have a pedicure only due to my limited time. Wow! The Attention, friendliness and level of care was like: Wow! So, I decided ro get a manicure as well. I had a nail that has been slittibg for years and although, I get others to fix it, it comes back.Again, it was superior. I can't recommend this enough. They get the highest marks and praise from me, once again. Im going to be like Paul Revere: I will be going around telling everyone about this EXCELLENT PLACE. I felt like a celebrity. Thank you all so much. I will be a regular. read more

When I walked in I had high hopes but I was let dow.. first of all I called and asked how much it would be but once I got there i was told that it was 10 dollars more (and it was the same person I talked to on the phone) .. the whole time she was pulling my arm up and yanking it down and getting frustrated but wouldn't tell me which she wanted so I was just sitting there so not relaxing and the nails are not the shape I showed her and they are all different sizes. Also acrylic stuff all over my fingers. Not happy and won't be returning. $63 total. Picture I showed vs nails I received. read more

I have been going to Lotus Nails for years. I really appreciate the quality of their work and their friendly, welcoming ambience. It is well-run, very clean and they have a large selection of nail products. Pleasant and positive experience all around! read more

They did just an ok job. My nails looked nice but I have issues with dry feet and only splurge on a pedicure when it's really time to get all the dry skin off. This pedicure didn't do that for me... Felt like a waste of $. They hardly scrubbed my feet and I left feeling skeptical about the quality. Besides having prettier toe nails, there was not much of an improvement at all in my feet. But the place is overall pleasant.. read more

Use to adore coming here and have brought a lot of friends the last couple years with me. My most recent experience with the service though was so poor that I felt the need to review. They have been making changes in the last few months, with one seemingly being different management (?). I called ahead to see if I could bring my friend and I in for a mani/pedi at 5:15. They let me know that it was too busy, but 6pm would work. We arrived together at 6pm, in which we were not acknowledged whatsoever until 6:30. I had to walk my friend over to show her where to pick out nail colors, and if it weren't for thinking we'd be seen shortly, I would have walked out much earlier. My friend finally got taken back for a mani (before the pedicure?) around 6:30, as I continued to wait until 7:10. I had gotten up twice during this time to bring to the technician's attention that I have been waiting a heck of a long time for having made an appointment. He seemed to be very insensitive back to this and continued to make false promises of how much longer it would be. When I finally was taken back, I opted-out of doing the pedicure as I just no longer had any time/patience. Thank goodness I was seen by Mary, since I love her!! Note - we were not the only ones with this experience. The lady next to me was apparently waiting since 5pm, with eventually just walking out having having no service provided. BTW - Mary is awesome!! I do not want this review to put her in a negative light whatsoever, as she takes her time and smiles every time she provides a mani/pedi. She does an amazing job and my nail color always stays on for awhile. read more

Not quite the relaxing experience I was hoping for after a long day, but it wasn't a bad experience by any means. I came in for a pedicure and gel manicure and they did my gel manicure while I was getting my pedicure. Like, the whole thing, with the UV light and all (they had the UV light sitting on top of a pillow on my lap). Made it a bit hard to concentrate on relaxing during my pedicure, especially since I had to be careful not to move too much or bump my nails. Other than that, they did an OK job, my nails weren't perfect but they looked nice enough- until the color started wearing off after a few days and became translucent in spots (have never seen that before). Prices are good; $60 for a pedicure and gel manicure. read more

Tam is the absolute best tech, ever. I have followed her to this salon, which is a half hour drive. I pass many other places to come here, this salon is clean and neat. Tam is precise and pays very close attention to details. She takes the time to get to know regular customers and ensures you are happy when you leave. I am always pleased with my manicures and pedicures! read more

NEVER AGAIN! I've been here a couple times for a mani/pedi, they have all been ok, nothing special however today I went in for an eyebrow waxing and will NEVER return again. The girl (didn't get her name) began by accidentally dripping hot wax from above my eyebrow down into the corner of my eye and played it off like it was nothing. I mistakenly let her continue. Upon finishing, she had also ripped out part of the hairs from the thickest part of my eyebrows creating a very noticeable hole. When questioning this, she told me, "you had that before already" then admitted that she made a mistake but still no apology. The icing on top, they still charged me for the butchered service! read more

Great French manicure here -- spoke with numerous staff, who were very friendly. We came in when it was getting close to the end of the day but they did not make us feel rushed. Daniel gave my BF a great pedicure / foot scrub. I really liked the special cucumber manicure treatment. This was one of my first manicures -- and I did end up going with the suggestion by the manicurist to get gel on top... It looks amazing though I'm not looking forward to the process / pain of taking it off! So we will see how that goes. But if you go in knowing more what you want, I think you'll leave happy. read more

Love this place! Very clean, friendly and courteous. Prices are pretty normal for the area.

Michelle gave me a very nice pedicure. Loved the new chairs. Too bad I'm moving and may not ever come back. Thanks for the spa like service. Nice end to my weekend. read more

I used to go to Janet's Nail Palace in McLean's shopping center down 123, but I was dissatisfied with their cleanliness and personality. I decided to try Lotus and was converted upon my first visit! The techs were kind and knowledgable and the equipment was very clean--everything in sealed bags/fresh towels from the towel oven (?) etc. I've gotten both traditional manicures and acrylic full sets/gel full sets at Lotus and all of them resulted in precise work from a relaxing experience. Angie typically works on my nails and she is an absolute delight! I'm never going to Janet's again--I'm a Lotus girl now! read more

Love this salon! Aesthetically pleasing and very neat and clean. Every nail technician highly professional.

First time visiting this location. Based on other reviews I chose Tam. She was so sweet and took her time to make sure I was comfortable and enjoyed the experience of a first time visit. The shop was very clean and organized and they had a very nice selection of colors! read more

I can not rave enough about Lotus Nail and Spa. Today I went in for a pedicure with my 76 year old mother. All of the women, including the customers, treated my mother like she was a queen. They were gentle and helpful, and my toes came out PERFECT. I will absolutely be returning. read more

I love the services here. I regularly get a manicure, pedicure and my eyebrows done. I live in Old Town and there are probably 100 nails salons that are closer, but it is worth the drive to McLean. The ladies are lovely, professional and efficient. My nails always look perfect when I leave and the color lasts well. The prices are very competitive and parking is easy. I strongly recommend them. read more

I like this place because it is clean, fast and cheap.. Yes you will not get Ritz's treatment but for the price you pay they are very good.. They are also very accommodating and even if you don't have an appointment they try to make it work.. I have been there couple of times and I have been very happy with this place. read more

I went in for a pedicure; they did a fine job. They were very nice and the facility was clean. There was a decent selection of polishes to choose from. Also, there was no wait but there were a few people there and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. read more
