It was my first time here and I was impressed upon walking in: it was busy but organized, bright and clean, and had a huge sign that clearly stated prices of all services (I appreciate this so much). We had an appointment and were seated at our pedicure chairs within one minute. Staff was so kind and thorough; I thought the price was fair for the service. I'd come back for sure! read more

My go to spot. Lily and her team always take care of me and have the best dip I've found in the Milwaukee area! Great quality for your money. read more

You'll see a review for 1 star and I want to comment on that: First, this was not the customer... and she wasn't there for the whole session. I was here during this incident. They did NOT discriminate against her skin. She was on the phone with said friend on SPEAKER very loudly, disturbing other guests. The owner asked her to please turn the volume down and was very nice about it. She got upset and started complaining about everything in the store, how it looked, how they acted. Every employee tried doing what they could to make her happy before, during and after her friend came in. She was never satisfied. There was no depiction commented to her of her race at all. This salon has been here for so long in the Tosa village. It's wonderful in here, very reasonably priced and they treat everyone with respect. It's 2025, please stop hurting small businesses. Thanks! read more

First time customer. Scheduled via phone a few days prior to appt. for a dip manicure and gel pedicure. I arrived 5 min. early to this smaller yet busy (for a Tuesday) immaculate salon and was seated at a nail station immediately. Ken did both mani and pedi. He was professional and thoroughly detailed with both services. I felt perfectly pampered every step of the way and will definitely return. Bonus: signage requests no cell phone use and all patrons appeared to be respectful. Note: Cash preferred/Card will be honored. read more

I hate to do this because I really enjoyed my experience here when I got my nails done the first time. But sadly, the quality of my nails was poor :( 3 nails chipped after less than 1 week of getting them done. I went back to get them fixed and less than 1 week after the repair they chipped again. In total, 4 nails chipped. You're probably thinking, you got "2 weeks" out of your nails, that's pretty good. But no. I can usually wear dip 4-5 weeks without ANY chips. The only upside is that I wasn't charged for the repair. But, what I didn't like about the repair is that instead of removing all the powder and redoing each nail from the beginning the nail tech simply put more powder over the chipped areas. Unfortunately, because I spent so much on my nails I refused to get them done again so I walked around for 2 weeks with chipped nails. The horror On the other hand, my gel pedicure held up well. With all that being said, I probably won't be back here. The quality isn't worth what I paid and I want to go to a place that does quality pedis AND manis. read more

I came in as a walk in hoping to get a gel manicure with a design inspired by a pic from Pinterest. They were able to get me in right away which was great considering it was a busy Friday afternoon. I was a little nervous at first but, I'm glad I decided to give it a try! Jenn was so nice and patient thought my appointment. I love how my nails turned out! read more

My feet were in need of some repair after more than a year in lock down, so I looked up best Tosa nail salons. Nail Design topped the list and was a 3 minute drive from my house. I had the regular spa pedicure with Lucy. She was friendly, very attentive to detail and has a great touch. They have a huge selection of colors. The massage chairs are good. Everything seemed sanitary. I found my new nail place. read more

Super nice people. Really bad at doing nails. If you want anything more complicated than a basic manicure go somewhere else. Also pretty expensive for their bad work. read more

I have been going here consistently for over a year and I plan to continue going here indefinitely. I love that you make an appointment and they actually honor it. I always make my appointment with Sara and she is kind and does a great job. My nails usually last 3 weeks, definitely 2+. The massage chairs are comfortable and sometimes they have great music playing, too (t Swift!). They have Dip, acrylic, gel, and usually you can get in fairly quickly. Prices are very reasonable and I love that you can pay through Venmo! read more

I really enjoy the smaller salons since they tend to be owned by families rather than the overhyped full service salons that sport more attitude than service. My little sister was getting married in a couple days and had never had her nails done-unbelievable I know, so I called first thing that morning to schedule appointments. Everything was going well with her service and my pedicure, when suddenly she got up and went outside. She had panicked about the wedding and needed some air. Everyone was really concerned as they got me dried off and into flip flops armed with water to see what was up. When I came back in, her nail tech Lyly asked if she was ok. Lyly then went outside to talk to my sister as well and reassured her that she gets anxiety from time to time which I thought was not only sweet, but a side of humanity we rarely get to see in public. :) We wrapped up our services-which were great by the way! Hoping she continues to patronage them, if I lived in town I surely would! TOP NOTCH SERVICE! Thank you! (By the way the wedding was perfect and she had the best day of her life!) read more

So satisfied with my experience here! I've been looking for a permanent nail salon as I'm new to the Tosa area! The lady Vivian who did my nails really took her time with me-you can tell they care about their clients! I got dip with tips since I have very weak, brittle nails. Will definitely be coming back read more

All nail salons have a feel and all are messy and smelly. Let's just admit that. But this salon has great technicians and they want to do their best every time. I have only had nails done, but they do offer pedicures. They open the door frequently for ventilation. I recommend wearing a mask due to dust. Every thing is wiped down strewn clients. I have had no issues here. Cash tip only, or Venmo. You can pay for services on card. read more

First visit was fine. Brought my daughter in for no-chip on my second visit and her mani started to peel 2 days later. Came in for a fill for my 3rd visit and Jeri filed my thumb nail down too much so it was drastically noticeable. Then my middle finger was filed too much on one side and was slanted. Things happen so I tried to be understanding but instead of acknowledging their fault and fixing it, they tried to convince me it was fine or to alter ALL of my nails to match the messed up ones. I know it's a buzzer word but they tried to gaslight me as if asking for my nails to be even was an issue. If you mess something up, you fix it... right? Anyways, I can't say this is 100% a crappy shop but be very sure of who you're booked with! read more

Wow wow wow. This place is amazing. All of the techs are so skilled and they are great with customer service. I have had two manicures here and they have been great. The most recent one I got I showed the tech a picture of that I want and she matched it exactly. I would give them a 6 star review if I could! read more

I recently moved to the Tosa area and was looking for a new, nice, reliable nail salon for a ~2x a month dipping powder manicure - I have found my new favorite! Lyly took great care of me and my nails from the moment I walked in. They were pretty busy, but paid attention to each client. I will definitely be going back and recommending to others! read more

Probably a 3.5 for me overall. I decided to check out this salon after a bad experience at my usual place (super rude tech) and was generally happy with it. On the plus side, they autoclave tools which is great. If you're getting a pedi, they have the super comfortable big massage chairs for you. Staff is really friendly - they seem to know most clients by name which means they have a lot of regulars. In terms of price point, they're about the same as other local places ($35 for a no-chip mani). Because they have a strong core of regulars, it is probably best to make an appointment at busy times. Walk ins are definitely welcomed but if you don't like to wait, get your time locked down. As an example, every pedi chair was full at 5pm on a random Tuesday night. On the minus side, my mani took forever - like more than 1.5 hours!!! (I'm not kidding) My tech was really trying to be meticulous which I appreciate but the overall effect was still "ok". There was a bunch of polish smeared on my skin (nbd, can clean up later), some nails are kind of wonky in shape and I have some rough edges to buff out (because the tech did some filing after polishing??). Overall, definitely not the end of the world. Would I go back? Probably yes (hopefully with a different tech) - everyone was really nice, I like the autoclave for tools and it's close to home. read more

Ruby is great and the salon is very clean and cozy! The best dip manicure I've gotten since moving to Tosa in July!

I have been going here for a couple years now, and I am always happy with the results whether it's a simple, pedicure and manicure, or a slightly more complicated design for the manicure. Lily is a very approachable, fair, and pleasant businesswoman, as well as all the nail technicians. I recently made a stupid accidental payment, which Lily was very helpful with quickly fixing, and making sure that the nail technicians were properly compensated. I cannot recommend this place enough! read more

This was my first time at this nail salon since I am new to the area. Lyly brought the vision of what I wanted for my nails to life and they are stunning. I love them so much and she didn't even hesitate when I asked for a particular design. Sara gave me a pedicure that felt like heaven. I couldn't recommend this place more to folks that are new in the Tosa/Washington Heights area. I loved seeing clients walk in and the techs all knew who they were and had a great rapport with them. I can't wait to come back! read more

Nail Design - My middle nail is coming up off the nail bed! - Nail Salons Near Me - wauwatosa, Wisconsin

I have mixed reviews about this salon as I've come here twice now and left the first time with beautiful acrylics and the second time with acrylics that looked visibly rushed - uneven nails, polish looked globby and the shape was not uniform. The place was packed both times which didn't take away from the employees being super friendly from the moment I walked in till the time I left. (Little over an hour). They have tons of color options and are able to do dip, acrylic, gel, etc... Each area of the salon was clean and organized and there was no heavy smell of alcohol or polish. While my second experience wasn't that great, I would still come again with hopes to rate this salon higher :) read more

Nail Design - Acrylics after 2 weeks :) - Nail Salons Near Me - wauwatosa, Wisconsin

The only reason why I came here was because my nail tech is in the process of moving and will be unavailable for a few weeks. But trust me I wish that I would've rather just taken the nails off. When I say that each nail is a different size and shape in comparison to the other hand is an understatement. I literally had to change my design request at the last minute because she "couldn't fully remove" my last acrylic set and was just going to give me French tips on top of the color that you could clearly see underneath. Considering that my nail tech has never had a problem before I didn't get why this was an issue. And the two little designs that I asked her to do are barely decent. I literally asked for some thing in the center of my nail and it is completely to the right. My nails aren't coffin shaped at all. In fact somehow she made my hands look short stubby and fatter than they are. They are unevenly filed. I even asked her not to round my edges of my nails as I like them sharp and they almost look like they are almond shaped which is not what I asked for at all. And to be charged damn near $65 for something so terrible. I'm not returning. Really disappointing read more

I had a great experience at Nail Design, because Taylor was amazing. Such an exceptional technician!

I spent almost 4 hours with Madan and had a lovely time. He gave me painting classes and also shared a bit of his story. He was really patient and gave me the attention needed to finish the peacock I picked to paint. It is a good experience, specially during rainy days. read more

I had been going here for years and then i decided i would try other places. Needless to say i came back. It is so hard to find good nail salons in milwaukee but this one is by far the best. They charge $30 for a pedicure while other places in Tosa charge you more for pretty much nothing. I will definately come back! read more

Nail Design - Polished pedi - Nail Salons Near Me - wauwatosa, Wisconsin

An interesting experience I had. I had my nails done by someone who seemed to be an owner or a manager. She was taking phone calls while doing my nails, which I didn't mind. But when she would continuously get up to talk to other employees I started to get frustrated. I left the nail salon with something all over my fingers they were white and crusty. I had a hard time getting this off. There were multiple bumps of acrylic power under my nails. I really liked the color and shape of my nails but I am unsure if I will ever come back. read more

This is by far the best place in the area to go. I brought my ten year old son in for a pedicure and nobody made him feel uncomfortable about being there or choosing a color (neon green). Everyone is so kind and professional and the best part is they take their time even with the basic pedicure. The massage is not rushed in any way and feels heavenly! This will be my go-to place from now on read more

I had a fill done on August 30. The very next day one of my nails broke. I called and was told to come back on Wednesday to have it fixed. When I went in I was told that there was no body there that could fix my nail even though there were several techs that were working on other customers. The guy who initially did my fill was rushing and did not do a good job applying the acrylic which is why it broke. They don't like when you have to come back because they are just all about taking your money. I came back the next morning and another woman reluctantly fixed the nail and she did it very quickly and didn't do a very good job with filing the new tip and once I left I realized that it felt rough. Needless to say I will never go back to this shop or any other Vietnamese owned nail shops because it seems they all have the same mind set when it comes to doing business. read more
