Pedicure, chrome gel polish, they will recreate any design you show them a picture of. Fast and friendly service.
Carli V.

Fast and friendly service. Will take walkins and same day appointments. The owner will always try to recreate the design pics i show her.

I LOVED this place! I had damaged nails with ridges and I had ordered regular shellac. The owner (I have forgotten her name ) stopped me and told me why they were damaged and how to treat them which was 2.5 layers of dipped powder and then the shellac. My nails look fabulous! THANK YOU!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Gel polish:)

I forgot the name of my technician but she absolutely SLAYED my nails. I would give 10 stars if I could because everything about my experience here was amazing!‍‍‍

My nails look AMAZING! This salon is top-notch. Great COVID procedures too. I felt very safe.

Plenty of nail stations and employees

I like the atmosphere here, but the quality of service depends on who you get. A few months ago the…read moreguy doing my pedicure cut me and just painted over the blood. He nicked the woman next to me, also. I've decided I need to go elsewhere.

I research Yelp very thoroughly reading as many reviews as possible. This takes days. I selected Will and found his work to be IMPECCABLE, extremely meticulous, top top quality, strong and they lasted 5 -6 weeks before one loosened. He has many many years of experience. A four star rating instead of a much deserved 5 star is because of only 2 factors: the liquid compound he uses to mix with the acrylic powder, and the final finishing "sanding smoothing" step of the new acrylic nail . My dad was a Prof of Biochemistry so I am very aware of chemicals. Will unfortunately uses an unusually strong smelling chemical needed to bond the acrylic powder. I have asthma too and could not tolerate the pungency of this chemical. Then in the final filing/ smoothing of the newly bonded acrylic he uses his tiny electric sander which creates a very fine granular dust which bothered my eyes and caused me to cough. My former acrylic nail beautician in Florida did this sanding via hand. This manual process greatly decreases the high volume of dust. I can not ask Will to use a less toxic pungent chemical nor switch to manual sanding. So sadly I must find someone else. He is an EXTREMELY good artisan and craftsman and gave me BEAUTIFUL nails!!

Stopped by last minute around 2:30 pm today and got a dip mani and gel pedi. Lena was my tech and…read moreI'm pretty sure she's the owner as well. She was really fun, and clearly running a solid business because within five minutes of me coming in they were starting to stack up with walk in appointments. I mentioned I had about an hour before I had to get back to work and Lena was so considerate about making sure to not go over, so I'd not miss work at all. She checked in with customers who were waiting for treatments and continuously answered calls as she worked. This woman does like five jobs at once. For people who aren't fans of the vibe: this is an independent AAPI owned business. Maybe we can be cool with not every store culture and owner fitting our cookie cutter view of Minnesota. Personally I love that Lena runs this spot her own way with her own attitude in the middle of a pretty white neighborhood, and she's killing it! Oh and duh: my nails are hot.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but I feel other customers should know about my experience…read more On May 31 7:43 PM, Highland Spa Nails texted me asking for feedback about my appointment. The very next day, June 1, I responded with detailed concerns about both my pedicure and full set. I explained that I paid for the upgraded pedicure package, but the water was FREEZING cold, the "extended massage" was practically nonexistent, my calluses were barely addressed, and the overall pedicure felt rushed and incomplete. It was HORRIBLE. I also explained that my nails were crooked, extremely thick, uneven in length, pointed outward, had acrylic buildup around the cuticles, and looked poorly shaped overall. I was disappointed because I spent approximately $160 and felt the quality did not reflect the price. After sending that feedback, I received no response for an entire week. When I followed up, expressing my disappointment with the lack of communication, I was suddenly told that a staff member would be contacted and would reach out to me. I agreed and waited again. Nobody contacted me. I eventually called the salon myself and was told that their guarantee only applies if issues are brought to their attention before leaving the salon or within three days. The problem with that explanation is that I DID contact them within three days--I actually responded to their feedback request the very next day, on June 1. Rather than acknowledging that I had followed their policy, I was repeatedly told, "That's all I can tell you." What makes this even more frustrating is that my appointment ended at closing time, and I felt rushed out as the staff were closing the salon. The doors had already been locked and had to be unlocked for me to leave. I wasn't standing there inspecting every toenail because I trusted that the services I paid for had been completed properly, even though. I may not have gotten the massage I wanted. The quality of the work was disappointing, but the customer service afterward was worse. I made multiple attempts to resolve this privately before posting a review. I have screenshots of the feedback request, my response on June 1, the follow-up messages, and the later conversation where I was told staff would contact me. I understand that mistakes happen. What I don't understand is asking customers for feedback, ignoring that feedback when it's negative, and then later refusing to address the issue by citing a deadline that the customer actually met. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this salon based on either the quality of the service or the way my concerns were handled afterward.
