All of the techs are pleasant and talented however my girl Nancy holds a special place in my heart. She's so gentle and takes her time I really love that about her. She's very attentive and so so so talented, pleasant and sweet. She makes my experience amazing each time. They offer complimentary beverages and their prices are like back in the day! I like a genuine salon. It gets crowded on weekends. I literally stopped doing my own nails once I met Nancy. And I've been going to her since. I took a break for personal reasons but I'll be back in my girl chair soon. See you soon Nancy!! Xoxo Rose read more

I usually NEVER leave reviews, especially negative reviews for small businesses, but the customer service I had today was the worst I have ever experienced. I had called twice to schedule a basic pedicure two days in a row to avoid a wait. The owner said a time and we came in early, he said there would be a 30 min wait, no problem. We left for 30 mins then came back. The wait was 2 hours. We got there at 2:30 and didn't leave for 5:30 for a basic pedicure. They also charged way more than the website said ($30 and I was charged $65) I asked for a discount for waiting 3 hours and they said $5. They were being rude at the end and not understanding at all. Really disappointed because the service is usually good. Don't recommend unless you are extremely patient and don't mind waiting hours. read more

Horrible experience! My appt was at 4:00. Waited for 45 min, then had a "tech" file down the gel from a previous set. It took 20 min for her to do 3 nails. Then was told to wait for someone else. A new tech came to do the rest of the filing. Then she stopped and I was told to wait. A third tech came over and insisted that I take off the set (that the other two girls filed down), evidently just to kill time. She did this and I was told to wait AGAIN!!! She came back and glued on tips with no nail prep at all. Finally the main guy rushed me to his chair and was aggressively grabbing my hands and acting as if he was annoyed. He had multiple people waiting and asking how long it would be. He was rude and unprofessional. He "finished" my nails in 10 min - again no prep at all! What i showed as an inspo pic versus what I got. And one entire nail popped off the next day. Absolutely ridiculous and will never come back read more

I rarely get mani/pedi so don't have many experiences to compare, but I loved this place. Price was reasonable and they provided excellent service. Atmosphere was clean and pleasant. Nancy was very skilled, friendly, took her time and really made me feel pampered--even gave me a quick touch up when I messed one up. . Overall experience and beautiful results were much better than I would expect given the price. read more

Today is my second time here. Tommy fixed a novice tips during my first visit so today I thought I would brave a little design. He is so efficient and does a good job, not rushing and not taking long. Even got my toes done today. Am looking forward to my mani pedi matching my Halloween digs this year. read more

I only came to Orchid Nails bc my original place was booked. When I called and spoke to Tommy (owner) I specifically stated "can I have someone who actually knows how to do nails, and not someone practicing", I got to the shop that same day at 5:30 and didn't leave until 9:45. Tommy actually smiled and walked right out the shop leaving me and the last worker there while doing my nails, he never came over to ask if I was okay or anything. This was Wednesday, by Tuesday the following week 7 days my nails were all lifting and gel polish was chipping. I'm only giving them 3 stars bc I was able to come back and get a new set thank you Luu! She was amazing professional and attentive! Got me in and out. read more

Came here after work for a pedicure . My toes look great. He did an amazing job with the shape. However; the rub down was very minimal. Just a little hot oil for 2 seconds and that was it. We weren't given the option to choose what type of pedicure we wanted. Short staffed, people with appointments shouldn't receive rushed service. read more

Excellent service. Huge variety of options. I'm disabled and they accommodated my every need. The appointment was done by phone and they reminded me of the appointment by email. I will most certainly make them my regular salon. read more

I got a gel manicure yesterday and it was amazing. Vivi was very precise but also very efficient. She had my manicure done in 30-45 minutes and I am so happy with her work! She also offered me something to drink while I had my nails done. I feel that when I go to most nail salons they rush their work and I always have to ask them to fix something, but I did not feel that way at Orchid Nail. Truly amazing and exceeded my expectations! My experience with Vivi at Orchid nail was the best experience I've had at any nail salon in a very long time. Highly recommend! read more

Kind, caring, very professional and outstanding in doing nail. I was visiting family again and still looking for a reasonable price, good quality salon. I have been very dissatisfied with the way the previous 5 salons I have tried. I am definitely making Orchid nails my salon when visiting multiple times in Arlington Virginia. Thanks for the beautiful nails! Karen G read more

Vi was amazing!!!!! She was quick and gentle and my nails looked amazing. I asked for a weird combo of SNS and Gel w regular polish on top lol. They have so many colors to choose from, the salon is clean and organized and it's just a nice place to be at. Parking sucks tho so give yourself time to find parking lol read more

This is a new nail salon I tried! I've been trying to find THE one. I walked it wanting a gel manicure and a pedicure. My technician was Jenny and she literally did exactly what I wanted in the picture. I got there around 6 and didn't know they closed at 7! Jenny quickly but precisely did my nails with such concentration. I was very impressed! Thank you Jenny will be returning soon! The nail salon is very clean with a cute aesthetic. We all know that there are way too many nail salons to choose from in Arlington! I tried this place (previously Tiffany's nails) and they exceeded my expectations especially because I'm so picky! I was very comfortable in the environment. read more

I checked Google for nail salons & found Orchid Nails had great reviews. The salon is welcoming with white decor, orchid prints & live orchids. The environment is clean & the technicians are seen sanitizing the areas after use. The color samples are beautifully displayed by color groups on color circles which is great for easy selection. Wendy did my pedicure which was very good. She cut my nails down, took care of any rough spots, fixed ingrown issues & her massage nearly put me to sleep. Thank you! Before beginning my manicure, Tommy carefully inspected my nails to make the best recommendation. He made several corrections to my poorly done gel manicure with several breaks in the nails. I was very pleased at my first visit to Orchid Nails. (My only comment is about the small parking lot which serves about 5 businesses. Hopefully, this won't become a problem in the future.) read more

Vivi is the best!! She puts care into her work and is extremely attentive to details. Orchid Nail is impeccably clean and they have more SNS colors to choose from than most places I've been to. The salon is peaceful and relaxing. All of their services are priced just right, and you can leave a tip when paying with your card (as opposed to o cash only tips). Highly recommend! read more

First time here. Very clean and brightly lit. Well organized color selection with 2 main brands, one of which is OPI. Sanitized equipment. Smelled strongly of nail polish remover. Pedicure looks amazing. Will be back to try mani. I would like a little more plexiglass protection for pedi. read more

Have been here several times and last time got acrylics. They were able to accommodate a same day appointment for 3. The acrylics done by Tommy for myself and daughter were done in no time - a bit too fast. There was no real cleaning of the cuticles etc just the acrylics. Tommy seemed to get annoyed with me when I didn't like the shape he did at first which wasn't close to the picture I showed him. He so sped through our services that the two of us had to wait for my other daughter who also was getting acrylics. Hers turned out nicely - the two of us who had Tommy had sloppy jobs. That said, they have lasted well. This can be a good place but be prepared for mixed results. read more

$87 for this below mediocre piece of work. I would never come back here or recommend anyone to come here. My toes were cut down to stubs after growing them out for over a month. I honestly feel sabotaged bc who does that? Cuts toes to stubs. They were also uneven and not square as requested. The right foot was shorter than the left foot. I'm actually shocked bc I'm not from here. Such bad/poor quality work. Please see the photo. I'm honestly convinced that people don't care about their work when servicing black people. Just moving fast/carelessly thinking people will be satisfied with bs. I do not recommend this place. Please save your money. read more

Great customer service and they really take their time doing your nails, which is a plus. Would definitely recommend as my gel manicures seem to last a decent amount of time when I go to them. read more

Vivi does the best pedicures in the DMV! I can be very picky but her pedicures are top notch! She takes her time and pays close attention to detail which I love. I've been to other salons and no one can get me right like she does. She definitely makes you feel like you are getting your moneys worth. I always look forward to coming here and getting pampered. You will leave feeling relaxed for sure read more

I got my nails done yesterday by Tommy, and I must say that the experience was an awesome one! He is doing one on one appointments for safety reasons which is a super plus. Tommy is very thorough and he takes his time to make sure your nails are done to perfection, which is something a lot of salons don't do anymore. He keeps an electronic file of what nail polish and powder you use for future reference when you come back and he goes above and beyond for his clients. He just opened up his shop a few months ago, it's super clean and he keeps everything extremely organized. I will definitely be back to see him again, he certainly has my business!! read more

Tommy is a perfectionist, and my dip nails (which I swore I'd never get again) lasted more than three weeks. The salon is pristine clean, and polishes and supplies are kept in beautiful order. No extra charge for shoulder massage and delicious ginger tea! Be sure to make an appointment; staff is small and word is getting out! read more

I recently moved to NoVa and was looking for a new nail place. After an extensive search I found Orchid. They were very accommodating since I had to change my appointment but they made it work. Tommy, I think is his name, did my liquid gel nails or hard gel, he was quick and precise with my nails. I relieve he is the owner so he does get pulled away for phone calls or helping other nail techs so if you want undivided attention you should use another nail tech here. I am so happy with the style and I received many compliments on my nails! read more

Tommy is absolutely amazing. He's thorough, knows which colors I like and he does not rush you. I'm a regular for pedicure and SNS. Prior to the pandemic, he would even provide a brief shoulder massage and walk me to my car with my things. So glad I was able to find this nail salon. They also have ample colors and of course the salon is immaculate. read more

Tommy and his staff are wonderful. I'm from out of state and and need my nails done ASAP. They took me in the day after I arrived and they did excellent job. Extremely happy with how my nails turned out. read more

They were able to get me in quickly, which I appreciated, and did a good job on my cuticles and rough heels. Then things went downhill, and the technician ripped down one side of my big toenail when doing my pedicure. It bled a lot at the time, but I thought it would go away. It took almost a week to heal up, and my toe got infected! The price for the pedicure was $38, which is pretty well priced, but what I got out of it was not worth it. It was no fun to be limping because my toe was hurting so much! Unfortunately would not recommend them because of my poor experience and resulting infection. read more

Finally made it in to this place after being recommended by multiple people and it did not disappoint! Jenny did an amazing job on my mani/pedi and was so careful and sweet. She reassured me that my feet were very normal looking and not bad at all after I shared my insecurities about them being so neglected She was also very nice about putting up with me being very ticklish. The atmosphere was very relaxing, clean, and organized. I showed up a little late not realizing that they closed at 7, but they were still so friendly and took their time with me and provided an excellent service. I'm so excited for my next visit and might even try something more creative than what I normally go for. Thank you Jenny! read more

WOW!!! Best shop ever! My nail specialist was Tommy! He was AWESOME! This is not the average nail salon this is definitely an upscale day spa. From the moment you walk in the door, you can see the detail that went into making your experience here to be one of luxury and pampering! I got the SNS FRENCH nails (not many shop do this well - he made my nails looks so natural and elegant), I can't say enough about his ability to do nails. He is a true artist! I also got a pedicure from their menu of pedicure options!!! They so many to chose to choose from and totally organic options which really made me smile! and yes French toe nails too! I totally recommend this shop to anyone in the Arlington area! Without a doubt, I will definitely be back!!!!! read more

I love this nail shop! I have had a pedicure and French powder manicure. Both appointments were amazing. The technicians are super friendly and really take their time. I didn't feel rushed at all. Tommy does an amazing job on French dip nails. The best I've ever had. Also, he really cut my cuticles, which is surprisingly hard to come by. Also, they offer a free shoulder massage with a manicure-felt amazing! The hand massage felt great as well. All of the tools are sterilized which is very important to me. The color selection for regular polish, gel and dip is the largest I've ever seen. Overall, this is a must visit nail salon! read more

My friend recommended Anh at Orchid Nail so I decided to give it a shot. I'm so happy I did! I got a regular pedi and a powder dip manicure. Anh was so attentive and helpful in picking out my colors, and she is quite the perfectionist. My nails came out beautifully, I've already gotten so many compliments and she was a pleasure to talk to. The nail salon itself was very clean and peaceful, it's on the smaller side so I would definitely recommend making an appointment. Super happy with my experience, I'll be back to visit Anh for future nail appointments. read more
