I got the deluxe pedicure with gel ($60), and a mani with gel ($35). The pedicure was good, which included a paraffin wax, but the massage which was weak. The manicure was horrible . I chose white, but I kept telling her there was bubbles on the nails, so she would scrub off the top layer and put it on again. It was the white color that had the bubbles in the majority of the nails . She was careless in filing off the top layer and it hurt! I told her I had to go, and asked them not to charge for gel... and they refused! I paid $95 and left, frustrated and upset. After getting in my car, I realize the nails have weird shapes and completely uneven! I had to refile them to get them shaped and even when I got home. I can't wait to get them soaked off as the bubbles are driving me nuts! read more

The pedicures were great but my manicure was so-so. And they added on charges when I paid that I didn't agree to.

I got the deluxe pedicure with gel. My pedicure felt very rushed, water was cold and overall quality was not great. I paid $60 for a pedicure I was not very impressed with. read more

Lynden Nails is the best!!!! They always do such a great job and work fast but are very detailed. Lisa does a super great job, she always gets the shape PERFECT and I've never lost or broken and nail- even 3-4 weeks out! read more

My nails came out great! Lovely pedicure. Nice color selection. I would definitely go back!

We took my mother in law today for a manicure and pedicure. We choose the mid priced pedicure for $45 when we picked her up we were disappointed to see that they did not trim her toenails. I thought even the most basic pedicure included nail trimming. I'm very disappointed. read more

Updated! Since my initial review, I have probably been back about 10 times, and I avoid Saturdays and particularly busy times. Michael, Mary, and Lien are all great! I always get the gels. My manicures last about 3 weeks, and I hardly ever have cracking or peeling. Usually, the nails have just grown out. My pedicures last about 5 weeks. The pedicure massage chairs are awesome! What a treat. First review - 3 stars - Went on a Saturday morning, and they were pretty busy. I killed 20 min in the antique store next door, then came back. I got a color gel manicure. The lady who did my nails is one of the owners. She was very nice, but I think she was kind of in a hurry. My nails have little bumps from dust or air bubbles. The job was finished by her husband. Very clean, friendly environment. Very small, 4 counter seats for manicures, 4 pedicure chairs, 2 waiting chairs. Next time I will make an appt for during the week and go when they aren't so crowded. read more

Lynden Nails - Pedi - Gel #29 - Nail Salons Near Me - Lynden, Washington

Always do a great job on my heels. I really appreciate the attention to detail. Nice folks too.

I don't like to leave poor reviews for small businesses. Just a heads up to bring cash, there's a 10% fee for using card. I am a licensed cosmetologist from Hawaii so I'm not sure what the laws for licensing and sanitization are for Washington. But I could tell that some of the sanitization was not what it should be. Nail files/buffers were not disposed of or sanitized after use but at least all the metal tools were new for every client. They did not check the nails prior to starting the service. I'm not sure if it's a law in Washington but in Hawaii all beauty operators must have their license prominently displayed and maybe I missed it but I didn't see any. I went with my sister. She said the lady was not gentle with her broken nail and that it was painful when she pulled off her cuticles. They also didn't even give her cuticle oil after. I also feel like her service was rushed because another client came in. I don't think we should have our services rushed or cut short because of their poor scheduling. If we needed to move our appointments to get better service that would have been fine but nobody said anything. I want to say the girl that did my nails was very nice, gentle, and professional. I could tell she was a little nervous. She is an apprentice and I can tell she's going to be a good nail tech when she gets more experience. I don't know anyone's names because they really didn't talk to us. It was not the most relaxing experience. I've also never had a manicure that didn't come with a hand massage. There's a big bottle of lotion there but they didn't use any of it. Essentially we paid $35+/each to get our nails painted, which I would have done at home if I had known. I hate to bash people in the beauty industry, it's not an easy job but this experience was a let down. But I'm not mad, our nails do look cute! read more

Lynden Nails - My nails, very cute and a clean application! - Nail Salons Near Me - Lynden, Washington

Good services decent prices, always do great jobs, clean and great atmosphere. My nails always came out nice, and last a long time.

I was hesitant to go to this nail salon yesterday after reading the previous yelp reviews. However, after visiting, I found out that this business was purchased two months ago by a new family and is now in better hands with new ownership. Donny did my nails and was extremely kind and thorough when giving me a shellac manicure. I brought my girlfriend and her three year old daughter. The woman doing her daughter's nails was gentle and kind. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. It is now owned by a hardworking family who has much experience in this industry. read more

I have waited to review Lynden Nails after several visits. I could not recommend them enough. They are kind, professional and EXCELLENT nail technicians. I experienced 6 different people and they all were excellent. They prefer cash which is easy because they have an ATM right there in the salon. read more

Very prompt, clean, and did a good job. Thank you! The first time there,they got me in the same day I called.

This was my first time at Lynden Nails and my nails turned out great. The place is CLEAN, the equipment is NEW, and the owners are SWEET. The owners are Michael and Mary, and they do the work themselves. I received a pedicure and a gel manicure with paraffin. The total was $64.00. I was there for an hour and a half and feel like I got my monies worth. My nails look great and the massage was wonderful... which of course, is two of the main reasons I get a pedicure! Highly recommend. FYI they also do waxing and permanent makeup services. Mary did her own eyebrows (perm. Makeup and they are beautiful!) read more

Lynden Nails - Went in for a manicure/pedicure off of a recommendation from a friend. GEL Nail color is 133 - Jocelyn. - Nail Salons Near Me - Lynden, Washington

We went the other day for pedicures. We made reservations. We got there and they were still busy with others so we waited no big deal. Then they got to us and everything was so rushed!! They hardly did anything other than go through the motions. I requested no polish just give mean extra few minutes of massage. This was not done. They really did give us massages at all. Then she had someone else take over without saying word to me. I told the other gal I wasn't getting polish so she then got up and walked away. Then another comes, I said the same thing then they left. They all stood by where you pay ready for that though!! I've been there before years ago and it was good. I do wish they would speak English. read more

Excellent pedi with my mom the other day!! This place was very clean and sanitary highly recommend... look forward to going back!

Well, I was still looking for a nail salon and this one is rated #1 in Lynden. I called and there was no wait so off I went. Easy to find and super friendly & clean. I chose the Herbal Pedicure because quite frankly, I needed a bit of pampering. The very sweet lady took her time and it was FABULOUS! My toes, feet and legs have never been pampered like she pampered them. I also have ingrown nails and she took care of them so gently. My toes are a pretty pink and oh so HAPPY!! I feel certain I have found my nail salon. They do charge an extra $3 for cards so bring cash if you don't want to pay that extra fee. I absolutely LOVE this salon!! read more

Best nails in Whatcom County! These folks are so nice, professional, and thorough! After a crummy manicure and injury to my nail bed from overly aggressive treatment in Bellingham, I tried Lynden Nails on a recommendation from a friend. They do a great job and their prices are fair! read more

Lynden Nails - Long-lasting, nice and neat! - Nail Salons Near Me - Lynden, Washington

Sent my granddaughter to this nail salon to have a pedicure. The polish was dried out and the paint job was lumpy, when she asked to have it redone she was told that do not have time right now. When I came to pick her up and noticed the poor paint job I asked about it and when they would not fix it at our convenience I told them we would never go there again. A young man who worked there asked my daughter "you must be ashamed of your grandmother". Very, Very rude, I have noticed that the young men who work there are not skilled and do half way work. I will be using another nail salon in the future. read more

Be prepared to pay with cash! They charge a whopping $3.00 fee if you use a debit/credit card. I don't ever carry cash and was pretty disappointed about their fee. No complaints on the work they did on my nails. I will find another salon. read more

They must have changed ownership. This place was great...before. For starters, there was someone else's toe cuticles/gunk on the instrument when the lady started my pedicure. GROSS. The employees spoke in Vietnamese very loudly and didn't speak with the customers at all. That is just SOOO rude. Next, the Shellac didn't dry properly and clumped at the edge of my nail and skin. The lady just ripped part of it off, and painted over it, leaving a dip on my nail. Just left the other nail that clumped, leaving a big bump on tip of nail. And the kicker. WAY OVER PRICED.....$70 (for a worse job than I can do at home) later for pedi/mani and my cuticles looked just as they did going in or worse. And I could be leaving with a new friend, TOE FUNGUS. I've been getting my nails done at salons for 20+ years....so trust me. I dont write a bad review unless it's warranted. Needless to say, I'm NEVER GOING BACK and you shouldn't even bother going. read more

First of all... horrible customer service! After hearing about my friends experience at this salon, I was furious at the way they were treated. The employees were so rude and they did a horrible job with my friends nails, after she had told them in a calm manner of what they did wrong, compared to the reference photo she had asked for, they took it to a whole new level of confrontation. It was way overpriced, and she didn't get their money's worth. read more

I've been coming here off and on for over 3 years. When the previous owners were operating it it wasn't that great . Now it's even worse. If you want a basic French tip or plain color they will get you in and out and do a ok job.. Anything more advanced than that don't even bother asking. The husband (the only guy there) has done my nails several times and each time he gets meaner and more rude. A while ago I asked for a nude color with a black stripe. He did it but was NOT happy about it. This time I asked for a French V ( instead of the white along the tip it's on the sides ) he got really pissed because he has to wait for the color to dry and then paint over it. Thats 2 whole colors omg.... This time before I could even finish asking for what I wanted he cut me off and said it can't be done ..then proceeded to leave and pawn me off on some random person who I've never seen do nails there. Only pedicures. If I hadn't broken one and had one chipped I would have stormed out . That was the last straw for me. The guy is rude, egotistical and doesn't care about making the customer happy. They want to do the basic pink and white nail and get you the hell out! read more

I wish I had better things to say, but I don't. Paid $35 for a 20 minute pedicure. The pedicure itself wasn't good, they massaged my feet for maybe 5 minutes and then they did a crappy job painting my nails. They missed a full piece of my nail when they were painting it. They weren't friendly at all, didn't even say hi or ask how we were doing. I would highly recommend going somewhere else. read more

Best pedicure I have ever had! Michael is amazing! Everything was clean and sanitary. Services are under priced for the quality! Had a deluxe pedicure for $35! What a great hidden spot in lynden! read more

Great place! Call and make appointment sometimes they are busy, but well worth it, had been looking around for a while and these last me a whole month sometimes, before I went to the. Modern nails and they suck!!! Waste of money, here you can have them done how you want them and also they last a lot! read more

I've come here a few times and loved the way they did my nails. Lately they have been having terrible customer Service! Friday and Saturday's are walk ins which are always appreciated but when they tell you to come in they have you wait 30 minutes or to come back in 30 minutes. If you come back too soon you'll wait an additional 30 minutes and then if you come 10 after the 30 they'll say come back in another hour. I've even gotten "oh I didn't know you were actually going to come back" .... what!? Lol So ridiculous. This has happened to 4 friends of mine and myself more than twice. Even happens with appointments made during the week. Lost my business. read more

They did not take off the old tips, which made the tips crack after about 4 days & their color selection for dip was super limited.

I didnt even know this place existed, but, thanks to Yelp, I found it. I go5 a basic manicure, but there were lots of other servic3s being done around me. The people here are so nice and CLEAN. She used brand new tools, in sterile packaging. It's a tiny place, but you can tell they run things efficiently and well. Love it here. Will definitely be returning. read more

Very cute little nail salon. They were very professional. I took my best friend in for pedicures. I didn't have an appointment. They fit us in, no problem. We both got the spa pedicure and we're delighted with everything included. We will be back. read more

Very nice and clean place. I got my nails done here and they did a great job! What really impressed me about this place is that I live out of state and when I called them for a gift certificate for my mother in law, they made it happen! They were So nice and friendly about getting it done. They even called me after they processed everything to let me know everything was taken care of. read more

My first visit today to this little nail salon and I was pleasantly surprised to find this little gem tucked away on Front Street. The shop has been open for 3 months and is small but very clean. The owners were friendly, sweet and professional. They did a wonderful job on both my and my mom's nails and we will definitely be returning - tomorrow, in fact, for pedi. It won't be long before they'll need to expand. Thanks Michael and Mary! read more

If I could review this place no stars I would but that would mean that I wouldn't be able to write a review ! I literally went and got my nails done here last week because it was my 21st birthday. I got charged $47 for acrylic nails that didn't even last 3 days! The glue she used for the tip was either expired or very cheap because the tip unglued itself from my real nail! Therefore there was water and dirt getting inside the acrylic underneath my real nail loosening the acrylic meaning my nails came off!!!! I called and said I wanted a refund and wouldn't be able to come back until Saturday because I had the flu AND work swing shift meaning I don't get off work until 1 am in the fucking morning!!! Which means they are closed. They said they would redo my nails. I go in and the lady makes me look like I'm crazy in front of everybody saying she's not giving me refund because they don't refund after a week! HELLO U DUMBASS I CALLED AND U GUYS SAID IT WAS OKAY!!!! waste of money and time all together I wouldn't recommend this place to anybody! Way too expensive and the acrylic nails don't last for shit because the glue they use for the tip is either expired or cheap as hell..... IM PISSED read more

I recommend them! Especially Mary or Michael for nails and Lien gives the BEST pedi around! I'm not fond of having to remember to get cash beforehand though. But my nails are always great and I love the pedi's as well. I've had gel tips, dips, manicures..Always pleased. read more

I really like this place. The people have always been friendly and do a great job on my nails. But, I had an issue with a gift certificate expiring just as another person said in her review. My gift certificate was only one month over the 180 day expiration date. They would not take it in full and said it was only worth half the amount. Super frustrating especially since they already got the money and I was just redeeming it. So essentially they pocketed $30. I had to do some research and found out it is illegal in Washington state to have an expiration date on a business issued gift certificate. I hope this is a heads up to anyone who is planning on using or buying a gift certificate!! read more

My favorite nail salon so far since moving to the Bellingham area. Super friendly, and the basic pedicure has more bells and whistles than the average. Will definitely be back! read more

I don't typically leave reviews but this place deserves a shout out, Michael was AMAZING. I'd had a terrible nail job done elsewhere and was so desperate to get them fixed since besides looking bad they'd already started falling off.... so I brought my two kids ages 4 months and 2 years (risky I know) with me, and explained my desperation to get them fixed. He was so patient when I had to feed and hold the baby and was great with the hyper 2 year old. He did an awesome job and just went above and beyond. It meant the world to me, I have 3 Kids so my nails are one of the only things I do for myself. HIGHLY recommend!! read more

The staff is polite and the shop is clean. They will take on several clients at the same time, so often the wait time is long, even after they have started your service, as they bounce back and forth between clients. Also, I've been three separate times for the exact same service and was charged three different amounts each time. Consistent pricing would be helpful and appreciated. read more

Love that this place uses liners in their pedi sinks. I got a mani pedi a couple weeks ago and had an excellent experience. The employees were friendly, the service was prompt, and the job was well done. I will definitely be back. read more
