    When I say Kieu is an artist - I mean Kieu is really an ARTIST!!! There's nothing that I can't bring to her that she can't do. Have an upcoming event or vacation where you want themed nails? She can do it. Find a crazy detailed design on Instagram that you love? She can do it. Want a plain clean set? She can do it. She is talented beyond words. She's also the yin to my yang when I'm trying to come up with an idea regarding nails - we are able to bounce ideas off of one another to produce the best possible result. Booking with Kieu is through her website, which is very easy to use, and you can generally get in for an appointment pretty quickly. She's also the kindest. From the moment you step in her salon, you are greeted with a down to earth, genuine person who will always keep you laughing. She'll let you put on your choice of movie while she does your nails, which is a nice treat. When movies aren't playing, she's generally playing music. Kieu is by far the best nail artist I've ever been to. Book with her and you won't be disappointed!

    We've followed Kieu from her location in Federal Hill to her new private location in Canton. She's worth the travel. Her customer service alone will keep you coming back. Not to mention her attention to detail with your nails. She's passionate about her craft and wants to make sure you're pleased with your results. I'm quite the minimalist and wanted a simple line design for my birthday nails. She wanted to try different lines on different nails until it was just what I wanted. I was very pleased with the results. Also, with her booking feature she makes sure to designate enough time for you to get the personal experience you want.

    Kieu will get you right lol. I'm a design girly and her designs are always better than the inspo. She always adds her own twist. Basically she does magic with her designs. Her customer service is 100/100. I love coming to my appointments with her. I always leave happy. Be sure check her out for all your nail needs.

    The universe brought me to Kieu!! Having just moved to Baltimore from out of state, I've been searching for someone who can do all the nail art I was used to asking for at my old salon. I saw Kieu's designs at a salon in Fed Hill, asked for her, and was told she no longer works there - So I kept searching for a few more weeks until I stumbled upon Nails by Kieu Pham online (not realizing she was the same artist I had asked for at the last salon). Once we began chatting we put two and two together and realized that she's the artist I've been searching for! After 4 months of living here I'm so grateful I FINALLY found such a TALENTED nail artist. Kieu puts 110% in her designs, no matter how intricate, and will have you leaving the studio full of joy. Thank you, Kieu!!

    I have been going to Kieu for the past 2 yrs. She was at a previous salon & b/c of her kind spirit & exceptional work, I followed her to her own salon. She is always professional, sanitary, accommodating, and friendly! Trust me she will have your nails on point (natural or edgy). She is a true artist and jewel!

    I have been getting my nails done by Kieu for over a 1 year now and she does an amazing job each time. She's good at free-styling or create something amazing from an inspo photo. She's big on cleanliness and is always a pleasure to talk to!

    I absolutely love Kieu! She is so warm and lovely and I've gone twice now and she never disappoints. She is also such a lovely and kind soul, and I love that she is so passionate about her work. Her space is inviting and very clean as well. Folks should definitely check her out!

    If I can give a zero I would! The WORST experience at a nail salon and that's coming from someone…read morewho lives in NYC with so many salons at my disposal. No greeting when I walked in. NONE. For 12 minutes. I arrived about 15 minutes earlier to my appointment because I don't know the area that well and it was cold that eventually. Finally I just spoke to the first person who was a tech there and just mentioned I had a an appointment starting in a few minutes and she said yeah I know pick your color, with an attitude as if I was disturbing her with my presence! ‍ Cool. Picked my color. Sat for another 15-20 minutes. No one came by to ask if I needed anything or to acknowledge that the tech was running a little behind. Finally some older lady comes and waves and hand signals to follow her. I could care less if someone can't speak English as we can always figure out how to explain ourselves someway but the tech who was translating to her was the RUDEST passive aggressive person I have yet to meet in an establishment. Not sure if she's the owner but WOW! I asked if they can do an extension on my big toe and she asks if I booked it and I said no because there was no option online for it but that I did call right after I booked it and the lady I spoke to did say the day of the appointment I can request it as an add on service. So she translates and she starts with my pedicure first. Cool. No issues. The older lady was nice but her nail skills were someone learning. Maybe she couldn't see well anymore, I don't know but the two toes I requested were HORRENDOUS. Both lopsided and one was larger with acrylic than the other. ‍ I really exhausted and I didn't want to complain because I wanted to move on to the next service and get back to my hotel room and rest. While I was requesting the add on service I asked if she would be able to also do a lower leg wax since I would be sitting in the chair for a while for my pedicure. She said she wasn't sure and once my hands were done that she might have time. As she turns her she rolls her eyes and shakes her head! This was the translator. I asked and told her if not it was cool too. Well after giving me the spa pedicure treatment she does the wax. Oh boy! She hardly used the wax and only did the front of leg and not the back. Again, I was really exhausted and didn't want to have an argument. Fine, moving on to my hands. LORD! I booked extension with nail polish powder. Umm. Starts right in the nail polish powder. The translator was sitting next to us with a client and when I got her attention I told her I booked an extension. She's like are you sure? And I said no yes I booked it. She checks and confirms and tells me, it early enough for her to restart my nails for the extension. Oh thank you for your generosity! ‍ Mind you I had prepaid for the services when booking. I have NEVER had my hands done and they not been prep my nails like push back my cuticles and trim them. She did nothing but start with buffing on my nail bed and start with the extensions with the glue. She also went under my nails and added the glue which my skin get attached to the nail. Several of my nails were stuck together like this. ‍ Oh boy and the nail shape. I asked oval. Ended with lopsided round. Then lumps in the nail gel powder. ‍ I did mention it and tried to buff a few out which meant she saw them but then those spots looked like mini hills when she dipped again in the nail powder. LORD! ‍ Okay. I know now I will have get my nails redone when I get back home because this was WILD work. So now it's time to pay for the addons ( lower leg wax and the two toes) charges me $40. I pay. Time for gratuity. I put none. I am not one to not tip but that WHOLE experience was TERRIBLE. The tech made eye contact with me when she saw the receipt and the one who first spoke to me about picking a color looked down at the receipt. She didn't ask anything on how the service was so I kept my mouth shut. Even the client who she was taking care of looked at me and could see how unhappy I was. I just walked out. This was a LONG one but honestly there was no exaggeration to what happened there. Sorry to blast the tech but her name was Cathy. My service was on December 23rd. Would NEVER recommend this establishment.

I liked it because it's conveniently located near my gym and I can walk there...plus they have Sunday appointments, which was a game changer for me. It's nice in there - a converted row home that still has exposed brick, plus comfy seating virtually everywhere. That said, I've been here 2x now. The first visit I received a spa gel pedicure and a gel polish change on my fingernails. Overall, the care I received was good, tho there was a sharp pinch on one of my toes during the cuticle cutting part of my pedicure. I appreciated the gentleness with which the nail tech removed the old gel from my fingernails, and the whole process was fairly quick (aside from the initial wait), which is awesome. One of my nails was super craggy at the bottom after a week though, which was not awesome, but happens sometimes. My second visit, I only did a polish change on my fingernails. Again, the tech was super gentle removing the old gel and she quickly painted my nails. I'm 3 days out from my last appointment and another fingernail has craggy nail polish at the bottom, but I hope it's something I can mention next time I visit. This place is OK with me.

This place is consistently spotless, which is so important to me, and the entire team is incredibly professional and knowledgeable. Every single visit, I'm blown away by the quality--my manicures and pedicures are always flawless, the shaping is perfection, and they work so efficiently without ever feeling rushed. On top of that, the communication is great, the products they use are high quality, and the pricing is very reasonable for the level of service you get. I've never had a bad experience here, which is rare. If you're as particular as I am, you'll appreciate the attention to detail. Truly five stars all the way--couldn't recommend them more!

From the very first visit, I was impressed by how efficiently they run things without sacrificing the quality of their work. You're never sitting around waiting for hours, yet somehow every service comes out flawless and long-lasting. It's rare to find a place that values both speed and precision. The staff is always friendly and professional. Even though the service is quick, they never rush through the details. My nails always come out clean, even, and beautifully shaped. The salon itself is clean, bright, and relaxing. Everything feels fresh and organized, and you can tell hygiene is a top priority.

    I had a disappointing experience with Lyn nail tech at Inspired Nail Bar today. I had a 12:00 PM…read moreappointment and arrived on time. I let them know I wanted a design and was paired with Lyn. I showed her a photo of an ombré French design. Her shaping and application technique were good, but the design itself didn't turn out well bc the lines were uneven and the ombré looked sloppy. I politely asked if we could remove the design and just go with a simple polish instead. At that point the interaction became very unprofessional and uncomfortable. Lyn began making disrespectful comments, asking where I normally get my nails done, telling me I "didn't like her," and saying next time I should "just go to someone else." When the manager came over, Lyn even said "your nails were ugly and I made them look better." She also told me she didn't want my money and that I could keep it and stormed away. The manager apologized and explained that Lyn is very talented and takes pride in her work, and mentioned there might be a language barrier. However, Lynne had been communicating with me clearly in English throughout the entire appointment. I remained calm and told the manager that I was intentionally trying not to react or escalate the situation, because I didn't want an altercation in the salon. I made it clear I was willing to pay for the service, bc it wasnt about the cost but that I would not accept being spoken to that way. I also had to ask for an apology, which I eventually received, but it was said with an attitude. Another issue is that when Lyn attempted the ombré spray technique, she didn't protect my skin, leaving paint all over my hands and fingers that wasn't properly cleaned. Even after leaving, it has been difficult to remove. What makes this unfortunate is that I actually enjoy this salon and had a great pedicure the day before from Martha, who was wonderful. However, customers should be able to give feedback about a service without being insulted or confronted by the technician. I'm sharing this because I hope management addresses the professionalism and customer service expectations with their staff, so other clients don't have a similar experience.
