I had such a great experience at Nail Lounge in Fairfax! Nicki was my tech and she was amazing. I got gel extensions and a pedicure, and everything came out perfect. She really pays attention to detail and makes sure your nails look exactly how you want them. My shape, length, and finish are all on point! The pedicure was super relaxing too--definitely needed that. The salon is clean, has a nice vibe, and everyone was friendly. Nicki made the whole experience easy and comfortable, and you can tell she really knows what she's doing. I'll definitely be going back! read more

Nails Lounge - Nails, cat eye - Nail Salons Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

Quick cat eye gel polish change $45. Which i felt was a little high considering it wasn't a manicure. I did love my nails though, they did a great job and I've gotten a lot of compliments. They have a significant amount of colors to choose from. I personally haven't gotten extensions or acrylics but that seemed to be a large majority of their clientele. They seemed comfortable with designs and inspiration pics. The only reason I can't give them a 5 was the cleanliness of the salon. I was pretty turned off by the uncleanliness. There was piece of a nail, dust, and residue all over the tables and nail polishes. read more

I went here because my friend got her nails done here and they were so well done. She saw Lena, so I booked an appointment with her. She is so kind and really knows what she's doing and what will look good on you. She suggested the color I have on. I absolutely love the way my nails turned out. Also their cuticle oil literally revived my cuticles from the dead i'm so grateful. read more

I called to make an appointment today and was shocked when the manager (who says he's the owner) told me I've been a "problem" for speaking up in the past. I've always been respectful. I simply asked questions or voiced concerns, like any paying customer should be allowed to do. My last visit was for my birthday, and I even tipped generously because I loved the results. But today, I was told most of the staff no longer wants to service me even though I've never been disrespectful. As a Black woman, this isn't the first time I've felt pushed out of a salon for simply using my voice. It's incredibly disappointing and hurtful. If a business can't accept respectful feedback from women of color, it's not a place we should feel obligated to support. I hope other Black women in Fairfax read this and know: you have every right to speak up without being labeled or dismissed. I will no longer spend my hard earn money in places that don't value me as a person. I'm no different than anyone else who speaks up about a service they pay for. I don't appreciate this treatment but this isn't the first time at this location that I've had a problem. I will be sure to turn people of color away! read more

Great place! Friendly management and stuff! Seemed very attentive to customer's needs. Will be back for another set! read more

Ignore the good reviews on here lol. My nail tech didnt know how to do my nails and I had to tell her step by step. Two other techs had to come and fix. I was in chair for over an hour and a half; to get natural nails with dip. They told me they would give me a discount and they only offered a 5% discount. My nails look OKAY...not great. Terrible service and terrible pricing. My friend had one broken nail and they charged 10 dollars for the one tip they put on there. Manager wasn't responsive to complaints. They need to watch their staff and not rip people off. read more

Best nail experience ever! Amy was super kind, fun to talk to, and attentive to details, she gave me exactly the design and shape I wanted and walked me step by step through the process, making sure I was happy with everything. Could not recommend this nail salon and Amy enough!! read more

I would like to share my first experience. I scheduled an appt for a mani and pedi. It is a small, cute salon and the staff were hospitable. I ended up getting one of the mid grade pedi packages. I anticipated relaxing massages but I felt the tech rushed and the massages didn't last as long as it should have. It seemed like each massage one last about 20-30 secs and she only massaged my legs, not my feet. I feel that if I'm paying for the service then the service should be rendered. Then I got my full set gel mani. The tech seemed to do everything right except she didn't cut my cuticles. I was confused and disappointed by that. Isn't that part of the service? I mean they cut my cuticles during my pedi. I have been getting my nails done for many years so I am very familiar with the services they should provide. Anyway, I feel that they should improve some qualities and I would most likely return. read more

As my go-to manicurist was out of town on vacation and I was in desperate need for a mani and pedi. I used the handy Yelp Appointment Request feature for a same day appointment (more like, within the next few hours!) and received a response within 10 minutes. At first, they weren't able to schedule me during my requested time period, so I began looking at other salons. They reached back out within 15 minutes to let me know that they were able to schedule me as the original appointment rescheduled! I went in for an SNS (dipping powder) manicure and spa pedicure. They had a wide variety of colors for dipping as well as gel and regular polish. My spa pedicure came with a paraffin wax on my heels as well as a nice massage. I had the dual treatment (hands and feet) during my experience, which was appreciated even though I wasn't on a time crunch. Nancy did my manicure and she was meticulous throughout the whole experience, and was very friendly! Unfortunately, my manicure only lasted 2 weeks before my nails started chipping (it's typically ~3-4 weeks with SNS at my usual salon). The salon itself is clean and well-kept. They also offer beverages (water, Coke, Diet Coke) which is always a plus. It's located in Fairfax right by Fairfax Circle, in the small shopping plaza next to Bowl America. read more

I highly recommend Nails Lounge as I had an excellent experience there. I was a little late for my appointment but was helped right away. Sebastian had a very warm presence and was extremely helpful getting me situated. Lina created the most beautiful almond nails for me that were perfect and natural looking. I regret that I don't remember the name of the tech who painted the design for me but she was excellent as well. She took her time. I even changed my mind when she was nearly done and wanted an extra design added on each hand but she was super cool about it. Normally I would be nervous to even ask but everyone was super friendly here and clearly wanted to make sure their customers were happy. My nails are super cute and ready for the holidays. I would definitely come back here! read more

I came here right after my engagement to get my nails done. I do my own nails at home and this was the first time I had ever gotten them professionally done. It was a really last minute appointment that one of my best friends made for me. I will say, 10/10 for the service and hospitality. I'm not sure what everyone's names were but the two ladies who helped my friends were very kind. I was a little jealous of them when I saw how much conversation they were having. While my nail tech was nice, she didn't speak with me at all throughout the appointment. I asked for medium length almonds with a natural smile line french. She added fake tips and used dip powder. Maybe it was my fault that I didn't pay attention as I was on my phone but I'm now realizing how uneven and poorly done these were. Keep in mind, these are 3.5 days old. I got these done Saturday evening around 5pm, it is now Tuesday night. The shape isn't even an almond but a rounded oval. They didn't look too weird right after I got them done but now that they've grown, you can now see how wonky the shape is. She flooded my cuticles on multiple nails and didn't even use the correct sizes for the tips as there are some fingers where you can see my natural nail on the side. My cuticles look messy and dirty and the shape of the nails themselves are just not cute. I'm not sure if my expectations were too high but now I regret the fact that my friend paid a lot of money for me to get them done. Overall, pretty disappointed and most likely will just stick to doing my own nails read more

I was in limbo and trying to find a new nail salon. From my fist visit in December 2021, Natalie has been absolutely wonderful and is my absolute favorite! Her shop and staff are really nice and it provides a peaceful environment--which is much needed for those pampering themselves. It even extends to the customers where everyone is joyous based on the culture. Please note that I drive 30 mins and pass several salons to get this service and it makes my day every time! See my latest art (Dip Powder in natural nails) done by Natalie here! (It is also key to note that the service is also fast AND perfect!) read more

This was my second time at nails lounge. I had a very good experience the first time so was looking forward to my visit. I went in on a Thursday afternoon and was able to walk in without an appointment. I opted for SNS with extensions since my nails were already cut super short. I liked how my nails came out on the first day but on third day i started noticing all of my nails lifting? I've never had this happen before from getting SNS done and it's quiet annoying to look at :( disappointing to see this happening just less than week from the visit. read more

I was very excited to make my appointment for a spa pedicure here with a gel manicure. Hoping to find a great spot close to work and near the kids schools where I could stop in and get a pedicure and manicure before heading home. Showed up and 3:20 (was 5 minutes late - I called to inform them) and did not have to wait which was great! I asked for a spa pedicure and gel manicure and was not walking out of there until 5:02. I even informed the tech that I needed to pick my son up at 4:25 when she was still doing a pedicure and inquired whether there would be time to do my manicure. She looked at the time and nicely said yes. Overall, the pedicure was good. However, the gel manicure makes me want to cry. As I am now stuck with it until at least Saturday when I return home from travel. I specifically requested she make sure it was very thin and to the nail bed. Look at the photos. It's piled on layers of huge messy bumps and not even close to the nail bed!!! It looks weeks old. Waste of money and now in need it removed immediately. Manicures are so much more important then pedicures in the cold seasons when your hands are on display...not the toes UPDATE DO NOT LIE IN THE COMMENTS - I did not need to leave in 45 minutes. As stated above, I arrived at 3:20 and immediately picked my color. In addition, I did not need to leave until 5 pm. And maybe you should state how long each service is approximately so the customer is aware, especially when paying so much. I tipped very generous as always, however your tech said she had more then enough time and in addition did NOT HONOR MY REQUEST TO NOT PILE THE GEL IN MY NAILS AND SO SLOPPY! read more

A few years back I went to the same establishment and had THE WORST experience and never came back. It wasn't until a friend suggested this place and stated they changed ownership. I decided to give this place another chance. I was pleasantly surprised by how clean and friendly it was. They have a great COVID precaution plan and I felt safe during my service. From temperature checks to sanitation stations to plexiglass barriers. There is a wide variety of services offered and a plethora of colors to choose from. I am very particular with my nails especially when it comes to French. Natalie did my nails this visit and she killed it. She was friendly, professional, meticulous and intuitive. She asked me what I wanted and far exceeded my expectations. I was impressed and will definitely be back. read more

Went to nails lounge because of their good reviews and online booking service. Natalie seemed to have tons of great reviews with pictures so I booked with her. It was my first time getting acrylics, I got them done with dip powder. Natalie was fast and intricate and made my nails look amazing, even better than my inspiration pics! Took about an hour and 15 min which was expected. I would rate her work 100/10!! Now the reason for the 4 stars..... I went back 3 weeks later, had an appointment and it said takeoff would be 15 minutes yet it took 45 minutes total about 35 of just soaking my nails (google says 10-20) all techs were busy doing peoples nails so maybe they were over booked idk... but after all that they didn't even get all the polish off..... all that to say amazing nails but expect take off to take forever even if you make an appointment and after make sure to look at your nails before you leave to make sure polish is off. read more

Best place in Fairfax for a mani/pedi. Ask for Natalie or Vicky. They both strive for customer satisfaction, are professional and take their time. Make sure you ask for the spa pedicure! There are different scent exfoliators to choose from and the hot stone message is extremely soothing. Natalie always does a great job and pays attention to detail and truly listens to what you want. If you're not satisfied she will make sure you leave happy and relaxed. Wouldn't change her for the world! read more

I went in wanting an ombré color with coffin as the shape. (acrylic) Jack said he wouldn't be able to do it but then him and the manager started speaking to each other then he said he could do it. I told him i needed them short (pic 2.) because i'm in an EMT and work in an ambulance. He persisted to tell me that the ombré wouldn't look right if i got my nails short, so i said i'd just get a solid color. I also asked for my nails to be coffin shaped which he did but not very well. Some of the nails are just straight and boxy like. I asked him to cut them shorter and he got very frustrated with me, put the scissors and file down and just said he will make then shorter once he's done painting them. At this point i'm very uncomfortable and want to leave but i'm giving him a chance because i've never been here before. He eventually did the ombré that i wanted but then kept on saying how difficult it was because he had cut the nails short (which they aren't short enough for me to wear to work). Once he was completely done he said, "i could've done it shorter if i used a different technique." I was fuming at this point. How could he say that to me when i was BEGGING him from beginning to keep them short. He said he would file them down once he was done painting but he never really did and they're still long. I don't mind having long nails except for the fact that i literally CANNOT have long nails being as i save lives every day. Ugh i'm upset!! i'm going back on sunday to fix them or just take them off... UPDATE...i went back today (just 2 days later) because the owner reached out to me and said that they would fix them and make sure i leave happy. Nancy helped me today and she did exactly as i asked. She made my nails short just how i needed them to be and they actually look like a coffin shape. Mandy, the owner, and Nancy were very apologetic about the situation and were so kind. They didn't charge me which also made me happy. I left the salon today feeling much much about about my nails and the customer service i received. Thank you so much Nancy and Mandy, i'll be back in a couple weeks!! read more
