This is the most terrible salon I have been to. The owner of the salon did my manicure did not start the service with cleaning the cuticles nor putting lotion on after the service like everywhere else in the city would normally without any additional charge. On top of that the nail color application was terrible, I could possibly put on the coat better myself. I have attached the photo of the finished nails after being charged $45 which is way overpriced for this horrible job. That's also after I have complained to the front desk before paying after they gave me a "discount" for my dissatisfaction. I will definitely never ever go back to this place again for any nail jobs. read more

An employee of the shop emailed me to apologize, which was nice, but asked me to remove my review. Instead, I am amending it: while they apologized and re-did my nails, within 4 days the polish peeled off. I didn't pursue it any further because it was obvious to me that they weren't interested in a refund, but would offer to do them again. Not worth my time. read more

Horrible experience, I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone else. The costumer service was the worst, my mom called in a couple day and they said acrylics were $35. My friend and I went and the lady said $45 but later said ya it's $35. While that price was agreed on they started working on our nails. After the acrylics were on the lady later said $45 ($50 with tax) and my friend and I were confused because it was overpriced. Anyways they did a bad job on being way too rough on my nails on where I was bleeding on multiple fingers! My friend asked for an ombré but the lady just added sparkles on a solid colour. Anyways my mom called in for a refund because I wasn' pleased and my mom, the lady said no refund and accused my mom lying. The most they would do was give $5 back? The only thing great was the First Lady doing out nails and the colour I picked. read more

I went here after buying a Groupon for a shellac manicure, I had not read any of the reviews, I wish I had. The nail polishes, dirty and visibly old, they are so disorganized, you essentially have to open the bottles to see the colors, unless you want to pay an extra $5 for 'special' colors...ridiculous. I was happy with the job that Hanna did on my nails, but they started peeling off in 3 days. I have never had this, and it confirmed that the polishes were OLD! I did call back, and they asked me to come in, well here is where it changed. Hanna did my nails again, without charge, and was very apologetic and sincere. I picked what looked to be a newer bottle and the manicure lasted. Overall, would I recommend the salon, NO I would not, but I would certainly go back to have Hanna do my nails again. She was amazing.... read more

I've had both really great, and really mediocre shellac manicures from Posh. If you're looking for designs + jewels/sparkles etc then you can definitely get some good work done here, but otherwise I'd say it's a bit overpriced for the basics. read more

Would not recommend!! The woman who started my manicure was so rough, and did not ease up when I told her she was hurting me. 6 out of 10 of my fingers had bleeding cuticles when she was done hacking at me with dull clippers. Then when the next woman began painting my nails she used the paint brush straight out of the bottle - this means that she was Using the brush on my bleeding fingers and then dipping it back into the bottle to use on the next customer! Finally it is a day and a half after my shellac manicure and my polish is already peeling. This place has to be violating health regulations, and at the least is providing terrible service and technique. I will never go back! read more

Nice staff however the place looks unclean. I recently had my nails done and the lady used a rusty implement on me. Scary. If they could get their act together they would be a good salon. read more

My friend and I went to the Osborne location and had a "bait and switch" pulled on us. We went in with free manicure coupons and ended up with a shellac job that cost us each $30...so much for a free manicure! They really need to explain things better and not just do their own thing...assuming its okay with you. Not happy with them. The process wasn't very pleasant either. My nails are okay (not worth $30 though), but the manicurist was rushing through and stabbed both my friend and I a few times with her tools. I won't be going back again! also, isn't nail polish supposed to cover the whole nail? not just some of it? read more

not the best experience. the lady doing the acrylics seemed as if she had no experience with nail powders in her life. they called us later and asked us to come back because they didn't charge us enough. not mention they cut both me and my sister twice and we both have leftover glue on our fingers. i wouldn't recommend. read more

I honestly think the people in this city are completely blinded by the "trendiness" of this place to see how terrible it actually is! I've been once, I got gel's and literally a day later the gel was peeling off. I've never had this happen before. My friend has gone a few times and gets stiletto's done, every time, the paint is sloppy, the nails are all different shapes and she complains about how rough they are with her. Do not go here. read more

The first time I went to Posh I was just accompanying a friend while she got her eyelashes done. The owner was doing the eyelashes herself and told me I could not sit with my friend in the room, but had to wait outside, which was said rudely. While sitting outside I witnessed who I assume was the owners daughter bursting into the room where her mom was working and having several screaming matches about a boy she was dating. The eyelashes took double the amount of time because of this and my friend was not too happy with the result. My second time at Posh was for myself and I can tell you I am never going back. I was told to dig through a basket of nail polish samples to choose a colour WHILE the girl put on the tips of one hand and had the other hand soaking in acetone... I felt so rushed and it was giving me an anxiety attack. The place was dirty, I didn't want to brush up against anything because there was so much powder and nail filings everywhere.. And they used really old nail files on me. Two different girls did my nails which would have been okay if they communicated at all with each other.. They basically skipped the step of evening and shaping the acrylic which was put on very unevenly. I had to fix them as best I could when I got home, they were so ugly. I spent at least an hour evening them out. Every nail was a different shape and thickness. My friend had gel nails and her gel was bumpy and uneven, she asked for rounded tips and they came out looking like cat claws. Definitely not the look she was going for. read more

So...... I had my first pedicure since covid-19 and my feet still had cuticles not clipped as well as rough feet :( they also overcharged me (prices online did not match what they charged me) Not great. I figured I'd give them a second chance mostly because I live nearby, I called ahead of time asking how much for acrylic nails (online it states $35) she tells me right off the hop $45. So I tell her that the site says $35 and she was like "oh uh okay yeah that's for normal polish" I tell her that's fine and that's what I want. I get there, one of the ladies tells me to sit down and pick my nail color I do. Then another lady starts yelling at me across the room asking if I was the one who cancelled my appointment earlier I'm sitting there, confused, told her no. She then asks me for all my information as if she doesn't believe me lol. I'm like wtf. Finally she comes and sits w me looking visibly perturbed. Making for an awkward experience. She does my nails it was kinda painful and she didn't even cut my cuticles. She also put shellac on my nailS which I didn't ask for!!! I don't get my nails done enough to even know the difference so I had no idea what was happening. You betcha they charged me $45 + taxes. I didn't even bother with the confrontation I was having a relaxation me day. I even tipped because I felt bad for her lmaoooo also I got a big fat check for being an essential worker lol. Worst nail salon and customer service I've ever dealt with. I can't see them being open much longer since everything on Osborne is shutting down left right and centre. read more

Went to the pembina location. The lady asked me if I wanted the $45 powder gels or the $55 liquid. I chose the powder. Then the owner Kelly does my nails and charges me $65... What the hell. I went back to see how that even worked out after checking online prices and to let them know that I was highly over charged and Kelly was so rude. Completely not owner-like at all. Also when I was there getting my nails done, she proceeded to fight with a coworker speaking half English and half Vietnamese or whatever it was. After the coworker left, she then called her mother whilst doing my nails and freaked out at her as well. Right in front of me. This was the first and last time I go to that place. Highly unprofessional. NEVER going back! read more

I've gone here before and gotten good service but lately it just keeps getting worse. The ladies get distracted so easily when doing my nails it takes them so long to finish. The owner did my nails and they didn't look anything at all like what i asked for. She even used a colour i never said i wanted and gave me a new set so she could charge me extra even though i never said i wanted a new set, i specificaly said i just wanted a fill. She also cut 3 of my fingers while filing my nails and it was so painful. And there was a girl beside me who had asked 3 times if the designs she was getting would be $10 and the owner kept telling her yes, but after her nails were almost finished she told her it would be $20. The girl was clearly upset and said she couldn't afford it and the owner just said "well it's already on your hands and I never said it would be $10" read more

I came from out of town to an appointment at Posh Nails on Corydon andOsborne and was totally disappointed. I had to wait for 40 minutes soaking while they took walk-ins. My pedicure took over 2 hours!!! This should never have happened. In addition, my manicurist said I had a nail fungus and then trimmed my toe nails. I asked where the fungus was (I couldn't see it) and the girl pointed out two places. I paid $25 extra for a special soak to get rid of the fungus and then she trimmed my nails again with the same tools she used before the soaking. I questioned this and she said she changed them. She must have been a magician because I never saw this happen. I was told I would have to continue to treat my toenails with an antifungal product which they sold for an additional $25. I treated my toenails with a tea tree oil product and an antifungal cream (from doctor) for another two weeks twice a day. I have never had a fungal problem before and was not sure I had one when I went in, but it is now definitely a problem. I will not be returning and have advised other friends not to go to this place either. read more

Horrible! Came in for a fill (gel nails from another shop) The girl doing my nails rushed! She was greeting people and answering the phone while my appt was taking place, leaving me at her station waiting often. Very rude. The other girl doing the gel color over top was horrible. She missed spots and it looks sloppy. I could of done a wayyy better job She blamed it on me not having a manicure before getting my gel nails done. Excuse me? I have never EVER booked a manicure before my gel nails. The technician always cleans up the cuticle. Anyways, not impressed! and they charged me $50 BUCKS! I will not ever go back to POSH nails. read more

I did not enjoy the nail services, the work was rough and very rushed, they missed a lot of steps such as pushing my cuticles back, or applying cuticle oil. They did not paint the whole nail properly and charged unreasonably for the work done. The ladies there were impatient and rude. read more

I have been to the one on osborne twice. The first time, i was just getting gel nails (fake extensions) taken off. They were rude, and made me feel like I was annoying them by even being there. You get passed around by super rude girls who cut you and scratch you with tools because they are rushing to finish their portion of work so that they can pass you off to the next girl. The SECOND time was the WORST. First, I asked for gel nails (fake extensions) and they put on ACRYLIC. Secondly, they burned my nail beds so now i have these huge ridges in my nail bed that need to grow out. They also left them ridiculously thick and bumpy - i'm not kidding - they probably were a good half a centimetre thick. They don't even properly cut your cuticles and prep your hands so you end up getting hang nails the day after because their method is to just take the metal buffer tool thing and just scrape your nail. So you end up ripped cuticles. Fantastic. And exactly 14 days later (got it done march 10th) so by 24th of march I had already lost 5 nails that just popped off. I paid a good 60 dollars for what? Not the environment. Not the nails. Nothing. The place is disorganized, no one knows where anything is, and they overbook AND STILL let walk-ins in so you're guaranteed a shitty result because not only are rude and grumpy people doing your nails - they are RUSHING on top of it. If you want a horrible stressful environment, crappy nails that don't even last, and pay an arm and a leg for it- then by all means - THIS IS YOUR PLACE. read more

I have been to Posh multiple times, when i first started going I swore by them they were great. As years have gone passed their quality and customer service has become awful. On my last visit, the owner was doing a gel nail fill and removed one of the jewels she quickly examined it and put it in a bucket so she could re-use it (very gross in my opinion). They are also very rushed and make you feel unwelcome, my nails have always looked nice but have never lasted long. She also over charged me $10 and my friends have also had the same experience. I have called to complain but i have yet to receive a call back. read more

I am very disappointed in my visit to the Osborne St location. I bought a dealfind offer which was to include a 45 min manicure, a 45 min pedicure, a 45 min microdermabrasion and my choice of either a 45 min Swedish massage or 45 min photofacial. I chose the photofacial. I booked my appt for my last day of classes and was really looking forward to being pampered for a few hours. When I arrived the girl at the desk seemed to not really be overly friendly or welcoming. She asked me to wait while she...??? I was then asked to choose a nail colour and then proceed to the massage chairs and pedi tubs. I sat down and was told I would have my mani and pedi down together. I had two staff begin to work on me and then the manageress? came and told the girl on my mani to come with her to do something else. She looked at me and said "its ok you not in hurry right?" umm whatever I received an ok pedi have had much better. It took about 30 min...not the 45 I was expecting. This same girl then took me over to a mani table and began to work on my nails. About half way through the manageress came to her and said that she would be doing a couples massage at 1. It was five min to 1. At about 1:15 she was still with me but not to finish. Another girl came and took over for her. When she was done painting, she set a fan up to help dry my hands and went to a corner to do something on her phone. About 15 min later she came back and asked if I needed any help to take off the throw away flip flops they provide. I said "no thanks I could manage." She then went over to the massage chairs pedi baths and some other staff member started some sort of work on her leaving me there wondering what was going on. I stood there wondering who was going to complete my booked services. Finally I asked. Whoever it was seemed slightly surprised, but came back in a few min to show me where I could change out of my top. I went into a private room that seemed ok I thought maybe now I could relax for a bit. BUT... The towels she used were hardly luke warm. She left the room 3x during the 45 min we were in there. She did the facial. And then got up to leave the room saying I was finished now. Saying my hair might be a bit messy. But no offer of where the restroom was or offering of a mirror at least. I redressed and looked in the mirror and then walked out that door and right out the front door without anyone saying anything. Not once did anyone tell me their name or ask me mine. I am not impressed with any of the services I received. I am not impressed with the treatment by any member of the staff who worked on me which ended up being 4 different girls. And overall the staff are not very professional at all. Many conversations about their own personal lives could be overheard as well as between two while they were working on clients side by side. There was no offer for a drink of water or a cup of tea. I was not told where the washroom was even after the facial which inevitably leaves your hair in a bit of a mess after having it pushed off your face. NOT recommended at all! read more

First off, showed up wanting acrylic full set but ended with gel. Which I know I should've stopped them but kinda figured they would turn out the same... not exactly what happened as they are very thick ... it's been barely 5 days and I have lost two nails (a thumb and pointer finger) with 6 other nails already beginning to lift. read more

Disgusting!! This place is so nasty. The girl didn't file behind my nails so my nails were "catching" onto everything. I actually had to go home and fix my nails. I got a French gel fill; I called and book an appointment and asked how much, they told me 35 and then when I got to the till it was suddenly 45. They had no soap or paper towel for my hands.. GROSS! The nail tech didn't wear a mask nor did she use a new nail file. She didn't buffer my nails either. They don't have proper nail lamps... This place is a joke and filthy!! SAVE YOUR MONEY!!! Still on the hunt for a nail salon in Winnipeg! read more

I'm a guy and I've never had my eyebrows threaded/plucked/waxed before. I told them I wanted just a little bit from underneath, because I think it makes me look more awake. She went to town on the first one and I told her to take it easy on the other because this was already way too much. She assured me she wouldn't make me "look like a girl" - that's not what I'm worried about. I like my normal brows, I just wanted a bit off the bottoms. But she "knew what she was doing." I don't care about what you think you know, I'm just concerned with getting what I want. Anyways she was generally unfriendly, finished the other one and left threads all over me and didn't thank me or say goodbye. And I would say my eyebrows now DO look feminine but whatever. They didn't listen to a word I said or take into consideration it was my first time and that I didn't want a severe change. Terrible place. read more

I go to posh quite a bit to get gel nails and shellac and usually they do a good job with them. But, the last time I was at Posh was the worst experience i've had getting my nails done. The lady was very rough with my hands and even cut me with a buffer, twice. My nails were UNEVEN and one had an indent in it. I asked for a sparkle ombre and they totally butchered that as well and I had them re-do it. After explaining that I did not like my nails they told me they were fine and I still had to pay full price for them. The lady who did my nails seemed in a rush and did not allow my nails to dry for long enough which ended up smudging a few days later. Overall they are an OK place to get your nails done. read more

Went to POSH nails on Osborne. Had a shellac manicure. Lady who did my nails was rushing. Kept finding bubbles and imperfections on my nails throughout the manicure. Wasn't impressed with the end result. There are still bubbles and imperfections on my nails even after pointing a few out. Would be very hesitant to return. Would not recommend. read more

felt like I was on an assembly line - 3 different people worked on my nails within 1/2 hr, less than a minute was spent shaping them so they are lumpy, uneven and there are holes along the sides where there is no gel. I had to scrape out excess gel from underneath when I got home - no finesse, no pampering - definitely not worth $70 and will not return or recommend to anyone I know read more

This place is a disaster, particularly in terms of customer service. I have been going to Posh (both the Osborne and Corydon locations) regularly for over a year, and I am done. Let me just say that they do have some very nice staff. However, about 85% of the times I've been there, I've been disgusted by the service. They take walk-ins and appointments, but having an appointment absolutely does not guarantee better or prompter service. I don't even know how many times I've gone as a walk-in and asked if they had time to do a pedicure, been told they had time, then had to wait 20-40 minutes. Their chairs frequently don't work, they'll make the water either too hot to put your feet into, or completely cold in the middle of winter. Most of the estheticians are rude and in a hurry, or only talk to each other and ignore you. The owners/managers also try too hard to save money by combining activities, like having someone do your manicure during your pedicure, which is uncomfortable and inconvenient for the customer. Either the manicurist has to keep going from side to side, which is cramped for both them and the customer, or else the customer has to reach too far over with the far hand. On top of that, they can't do the manicure if the massage chair is turned on. The massage chairs are half the reason I liked going to Posh for pedicures, so that defeats the purpose. It also just seems too obviously like the managers are trying too hard to save money by cramming the services together like that. On top of that, I really dislike the way the esthicians are forced to push upsells on the customers all the time. If I'm getting a pedicure, the last thing I want is someone harrassing me to upgrade to a shellac or a sugar scrub. It's just kind of tacky. On top of that, the colour selection for nail polish is not great. There are millions of the same shades are some very basic shades are missing. I would also prefer to see the polishes grouped by brand, as some brands are a lot better than others. My last visit was yesterday, and after being told that it would only be a minute or two until my esthetician would be with me, I waited for 25 minutes. Finally I just got up and left, and I won't be going back. I found another place where the pedicures are the exact same price, they have amazing service and colour selection, better massage chairs, and I've found a new home. read more

Posh Nails on Osborne is a scam. Do not go there I repeat DO NOT GO THERE. First off they mainly want to cater a certain shape of nails and get sloppy if you request it a different way. Then they don't really ask and listen to what you want as much as they basically inform you of what you're getting. The worst part is YOUR NAILS LOOK LIKE SHIT I mean I would upload a pic but unfortunately at this moment that's not possible. Its not straight or even or shaped nicely or painted nicely it just looks like crap. Furthermore they don't cater to other issues on your fingers so your hand looks good over all its all about getting and getting out with giving them the most money possible. Then don't u dare think of going back on the same day to have a change that will be $5.00 again for you. I don't understand if they are doing nails or wokring in a factory. EITHER WAY THEY ARE CROOKS AND I ADVICE EVERYONE TO STAY FAR FROM THEM IF I HAD TIME I WOULD PRINT FLYERS AND PUT THEM ALL AOVER OSBORNE BUT THEY'RE NOT WORTH IT. read more

Most horrible nail salon experience I've ever had. I got acrylics done and the lady that did them completely DESTROYED my fingers. I have cuts all over every finger that hurt so bad all I want to do is soak them in cold water for the rest of the day. She criticized my hands the whole time telling me that I have awful cuticles and she just wants to cut them off and when I told her there are no cuticles left to cut off because she's butchering my finger she said "oh where?". My hands were bleeding! and then she told me I'll be find just "put a bandaid on it". Where my torn cuticle bled she didn't clean it off she just put the acrylic nail over top so now I have dried blood visibly under the fake nail. She didn't shape them evenly and when I left I noticed that she painted a hair into the nail polish... I had to go back and have them buff it out and repaint because i had a damn HAIR in my nail polish. And just to top it all off the woman was NOT apologetic and was dressed like she was going clubbing, her boobs hung out of her shirt more than they would out of a regular bra, but she wore that damn thing as a shirt. I felt so uncomfortable sitting in front of her cleavage for an hour. The only reason we went there was because we had breakfast at Stella's that morning and it was convenient, I'm never going back. I would give negative stars if I could. My nails looked better and less butchered before I went. Now they look like crap. Had to fix it myself when I got home. On top of that, I paid twice what I paid at another salon, and got 1/5 of the quality. Some of the people there are nice, but I'm quite certain this woman owns the place (if not then she sure acted like she did) so seriously, spare yourself the risk of having her do your nails and find another salon. read more
