Bruising on big toe immediately after pedi from rough massage. Had to ice it. Pic is ~3 days later- it was worse.

Bruised from rough massage and cut nails below nail bed. My feet still hurt. 3 stars because she did try to fix mistakes on mani but pedi was really rough and will likely cause painful ingrown nails.

My Dip nails by Angie still looking amazing 2 weeks later.

Angie is so lovely and wonderful. Very humble, but smart as a whip too! I had Angie do a Dip manicure for me 2 weeks ago, and it still looks fantastic, and is good and strong. I've included a picture of my nails now 2 weeks later, and you'd never know! The business has been around since the 90s, and they treat their customers like family, and their customers love them back in return. It's a happy - good vibe place to be.

She even talked me into a better color and I love it!!!

Just the loveliest!! A treat to myself. I've had a lot of pedicures at a lot of places - and this is my favorite!! I keep coming back...and every time, I love it!! Wonderful techs, they so clearly have loyal customer-base - always appreciative of being there. They should probably charge more - because they really are the best. I have tiny nails - I know - it sucks - but they make me feel like a million bucks and their patience with my itties is bar none! I couldn't recommend more!

I got the purple chrome!

This place is so fantastic! Angie is so nice and the shop is clean and cute. They have a great selection of colors, gels, and fun chromes. Every part of the pedicure was delightful and the massage at the end was exquisite. So reasonably priced too. I will 100% be coming back!

This truly is a wonderful salon. Like other reviews, I just book a time slot and not a specific person, and no matter what I aways receive exceptional service. Highly recommend. I would advise making an appointment as they do get busy!

Pedicure: $35 includes a killer foot  massage

Angie was pleasant and friendly from the moment I called to make an appointment til the time I left. Angie was meticulous with her work on my tired weary feet and took her time despite being really busy. Her massage was strong and was flipping incredibly thorough!!! BEST massage EVER at a nail salon. Reallly!! I live near NW 23rd and the nail salons there are good but with this new find, I would drive out to Hillsdale to get my nails done here. I highly recommend Angie & this salon. Tip: no credit cards- cash is king

Two stars because they are super sweet...& I'm sorry for the bad review because of that, but the quality & end result of my nails is disappointing. I got a gel manicure and pedicure. It's been five days and already chipping in multiple places - I'm assuming because they didn't paint the top of the nail. The polish is bumpy. They didn't cut any cuticles. They painted my nails with just the regular room lighting (vs having a smaller light/lamp about 1ft from my nails.

Nail Savvy is a neighborhood gem- it's clean, calm, and the owner Angie is just the nicest lady. Would highly recommend!

Angie was absolutely amazing! She was so flexible and communicative. I came in for a general pedicure, expecting just a nail trim and some callous removal, but she went above and beyond. She's a great conversationalist and very attentive to what feels good.

Got my mani/pedi done at this nail shop and it was by far the best I have ever received in the states! Angie the owner is very kind, attentive, and takes her time making sure your finger and toe nails are in tip top shape. She even shared some nail care tips, which as a guy I very much appreciated. The massage was a 10/10, just the right amount of pressure! Very relaxing and welcoming environment. I will definitely be back soon

Was relatively happy my nail artist.. friendly and very focused on design…read more My only complaint is that while the Shellac is better for the nails the paint doesn't last as long as the Gel Everything else was great service, just chipping occurred within only a couple days Not their fault, likely from hand-washing and such during this pandemic.

I don't know about you all, but I am getting SO sick of by paying to be treated poorly!…read more Husband and I were visiting Portland, so I couldn't get my regular mani pedi back home. Made an appointment for 2 and we weren't seen until after 240 pushing back our dinner plans with our family. Strike one. They barely acknowledged that they were late. Strike two. Normally I wear my earbuds because I hate overhearing conversations, but I was with my husband. I don't care if you're speaking another language in front of me. I do, however, object to being ridiculed right in front of my face. And then paying for it. I will go on the record saying I am not a gargoyle nor do I need a sandblaster to get a proper pedicure. A cheese grater does just fine. Sadly, it should go without saying, that even if I were the mysterious Sasquatch from these parts out for her first mani-pedi in *ever*, these women had no business making fun of anyone. I believe we should uplift each other so I'm not going to mention what they looked like. But because I can, I will say they have a lot of chutzpah saying anything about anyone. I've never been a big fan of businesses pointing out their clients' flaws, or just as annoying, asking about their routine and no matter what they say, immediately saying, "oh no, that's all wrong, here buy this " That said, they're My cuticles. I religiously get my nails done so my hands don't look like bricklayer's. I know they're dry, but to have one say "cuticles" (their language) then one say to me, "you know you have thick cuticles!" And in a sneery way. Had I been another sort of person (and my husband wasn't there) there might have been words, or had I been terribly sensitive, I might've left and humiliated. Completely unprofessional. I could go on and say more about the entire pathetic experience, but this is the worst part of it. And of course, I didn't like my nails (neither did my husband) but forgot to take a pictures.
