This review is long overdue, but since it was my birthday month, I decided to treat myself to some "me time." I usually prefer simple Japanese GelX nails with a French tip, but for this month, I wanted to switch things up. I typically avoid crystals, pearls, or embellishments since they don't hold up well with my semi-hands-on lifestyle, but I'm crossing my fingers this design and the crystals will last. I booked my appointment through the app for 11:15 a.m., but shortly after, I received a text asking to push it to 11:45 a.m. so the artist could have extra time. That adjustment was fine with me. I arrived about 5-10 minutes early, was offered water, and waited for my turn. Since it was taking longer than expected, the receptionist/nail artist kindly prepped my nails so my artist could begin right away once available. The client before me appeared to be an influencer or vlogger, equipped with both a 360° camera and a portable camera. With the camera so close, I tried to keep conversation to a minimum. As a result, my appointment, originally set for 11:15 a.m., didn't begin until closer to 12:00 p.m. I debated which nail shape to go with and ultimately chose ballerina. I had a reference image, and the artist executed it beautifully--I was impressed with her work. The process took about 2.5 hours, partly due to the extended session before me. Overall, my experience was fine. The artist's skill and attention to detail were excellent, but the scheduling delay was frustrating. Although I understand it wasn't the artist's fault, it would have been nice to receive a small discount or gesture to make up for the inconvenience. read more

I have been to Maison Nail Spa twice now, and even though it's about an hour drive from where I live, I don't want to go to any other nail salon. Both times, I was well taken care of by Anna. She is so sweet, patient, professional, detailed with her work, a great listener and an excellent artist! You can show her an inspiration picture and she will get it just right. On my first visit I got gel-X extensions with design, and the second visit I got gel overlay with design, and I have been so happy with the result both times. The salon as a whole is very clean, warm and bright, and organized. I love that they ask you to wash your hands first, and they use clean tools. Making an appointment was a breeze. They also offer a complementary drink when you arrive. I would recommend arriving early to allow time to find parking, but there's plenty of food and cafes to enjoy nearby after you're done! read more

A great spot for pampering your hands and feet! My friend recommended Maison de Beaute to me after I complimented her Japanese gel nails. This nail salon offers a variety of services from manicures, gel X, gel overlay, pedicures and more. Upon walking in, I was struck by how elegant the salon was. I was greeted warmly and offered my choice of refreshments to which I ended up sipping on a mimosa while I waited. I've been here twice and were serviced by Annie and Yuki respectively, both of whom are very talented and gave me the exact results I wanted. They were both meticulous without rushing through the process and making sure everything looked great. I had requested a special design and gave Annie my inspiration photo from Instagram, in which Annie was able to replicate to a T. Prices are a little on the more expensive side but still reasonable, given the level of expertise and services offered here. The location is a bit farther from me than I would like but I'll be returning when I want to get a special Japanese gel mani. read more

I recently started coming here for manis/pedis and I'm hooked. The location is super convenient and they even offer drinks while you're getting pampered. They also have Dazzle Dry, the chip-resistant polish that lasts and dries fast. The place is always neat and they sanitize everything after each client. Great prices, too! Book online ahead of time but I am sure you could walk in as well. read more

Lona killed it and was so sweet. It was my first time so I accidentally booked my appt was normal mani, no design. I apologized and said I can just pick a color then but she said since I was her last of the day she could do it. Even tho I was prob making her finish late, Lona was fully committed to executing my inspo pic lol. Towards the end, the place was emptying out, yet she was still being so detailed and taking her time finding the exact glitters and stickers to recreate what I asked for, you can tell she really cares about her work, and she's great at it. She absolutely killed it! read more

I asked for a regular manicure and the male technician left my nails rough, scratched the glue residue off my hand WITH HIS OWN NAILS and when I asked for a clear coat, he added a base coat and told me that was clear. One star customer service he was entirely rude, and completely unsanitary. read more

I was really hoping to make this my go to nail salon.. went in a few weeks ago. Great experience did gel x nails.. was is told by the technician that when I come in next time, I would be able to do a bio gel fill for my gel X nails.. I visited yesterday and the experience was completely different. I was told that I am not able to do a fill and that my gel X nails needs to be removed completely. I had let them know that my natural nail is very thin and I don't want the nail to be removed and they still insisted that it has to be removed.. I agreed because I have an event I needed to get my nails done however they still charged me for Nail removal, even though it was by their request that they remove my nails., such a ridiculous experience. This is definitely money hungry place. All of the technicians were very rude this time. The pedicure for my daughter and I lasted about 10/12 minutes. read more

I really liked the service in the salon. Everything is sterile clean. Comfortable chairs. The pedicure was done quickly and neatly. read more

Evie was so careful with my gel-x removal while working so quickly! She was also very helpful in recommending a polish and style for me!

Maison de Beaute is such a beautiful salon. I got my nails done about a month ago by Lona and she is the absolute BEST. This is the second time I've gotten my nails done by her, and I refuse to go to anyone else whenever I'm in the area!

I got my birthday set, Gel X, done here by Yuki. Yuki is such a talented professional and artist. I am so happy with how my nails came out. I got a "glass" cat eye with butterfly design. All of the staff here are warm and welcoming. I honestly couldn't have imagined them coming out better. I went here on a Saturday so they were busy of course. I understand why it was so busy, because their manicures are on another level. You can easily book an appt online. Parking on either street or lot, I went to the small lot around the corner. I will definitely be back. Thank you so much Yuki, you are the best!! read more

This was my second time at Maison, and it was nothing short of amazing! The first time I came here, I got builder gel/gel overlay with Vicky; she was beyond wonderful and achieved the exact look I desired, knowing the exact color I wanted by verbatim/without needing a visual! When I came back for this (my 2nd) appointment, because of my work and my natural nails are so weak/brittle (which is all me and not at all by the fault of the nail technician because they held up for weeks), multiple of my nails were broken. One of my natural nails had ripped off in half :( It was painful with the lightest touch and I had wrapped in 2 bandages, so I was nervous. For this second time, I had Coco as my technician, and all my nerves went away--she is quite seriously everything She was gentle, caring, super sweet and very understanding! This time, I knew to get gel x and Coco literally nailed it and I was pain free my entire session! My nails looked and felt beautiful, I have no idea how she did it tbh; true talent! Highly recommend these two amazing artists, Vicky and Coco so happy to find my new go-to studio! read more

Maison is my nails' comfy place. I got my nails done for a friend's wedding and it couldn't be prettier. The salon has an elegant yet therapeutic vibe as well. Their tech team deliver clean, neat, professional services. I often book the young girl named Bo Young unless otherwise since she understands my needs so well. My nails' final looks have been closest to the designs I showed her, which no nail salon I've been to had ever done before. Highly recommend this hidden gem! read more

Wow love this place! I feel like I always go to gloss nails so that means I never go anywhere. Until now! Loved the range of prices and that no pressure to get designs or go crazy. However I did do the cat eye and I'm in love. I'm regretting not getting my toes the same. I couldn't decide and the extra charge I couldn't stomach. However totally worth it. Next time. The chair has a petite and tall option which is amazing! They are so polite and nice and welcoming. Oh and also best part it's clean!! I'd recommend for sure! In total I spent about and hour and a half here and spent about 125, 70 for the manicure because of the cat eye thing. And 55 for some deluxe spa with 6 min massage. It was wonderful and felt like ten to me. There are more affordable options but as I get my nails done maybe once or twice a year if at all I figured I'd splurge;) . read more

I had Amy, and she was AMAZING! Her attention to detail was incredible, I loved how my nail came out. Also, there's complementary champagne, which is awesome. read more

Janet did a wonderful job doing french toes! She asks you exactly how you want it ! Doesn't tell you what she wants! It's about YOU! I was so happy to see a new smiling face at the salon. She just came here from Beverly Hills and has the class to match! Thank you Janet! read more
