I got a fill here, and it took 30-45 min max. I had never gotten my nails done so quickly before -- it was amazing! She did a wonderful job -- I love the natural colors book they have, and the shape was perfect. My sister was visiting and went here twice in the week that she was here because she "hadn't had her nails done that well in a long time." The con with this place is that I paid $65-75 for a fill- way out of my price range and, for that reason, I cannot be a returning customer at this time even though I would like to be. read more

I've gone here twice and neither experience was good at all. I got single color, dip polish on my natural nails both visits, and both times the (different) techs seemed annoyed with my request. Both times my fingers /cuticles have been sore the next day. Yesterday the tech didn't file my nails to match lengths, the top coat is spotty and does not cover the whole nail, and the dip is applied lumpy and unevenly. While removing my previous color, she ground too far into one of my nails. While buffing the dip coat she repeatedly hit my palm with the file. The salon is well kept, but the service is not worth it. read more

Walked in around 9:31am on a Friday and they weren't busy, appeared to have more employees than clients. I was asked several times by the same two people what services I was looking to get and they seemed confused when I said a refill and gel polish change for my toes. After a couple minutes a few other people came in, they asked what they wanted, and then asked me if I had an appointment. The woman yelling "what services do you want again" became so annoying and overwhelming, I said I'd go somewhere else... Not sure if it's because I didn't have an appointment or because I'm clearly not a local to Forest Lake, MN. either way, terrible customer service, especially for minutes after opening. read more

I came in today for a full set and Sophie was my nail tech. She was so so kind and personable and I absolutely love my nails. She was very helpful with me picking out the perfect fall color! I would highly recommend Pt nails and specifically Sophie! She deserves a raise :)) read more

I was not going to write a review but it's been eating at me. I was there a couple weeks ago and asked for a deluxe pedi with gel polish. I was charged $70 for this service. This is way up from my last pedi there. I was taken aback by this price. After leaving I checked the website and it's not that easy to see what the cost actually is. On top of the price, I feel like I did not get my usual service. Not sure if it was a new person but it was not a great pedicure. I will try someplace else next time. Sad because I have been going to PT nails for a long time. read more

nicest employees. Good prices and an excellent manicure!! Very clean! I felt like they cared what I thought and they did a beautiful job.

I've been to many salons in several states and THIS SALON beats them all. VERY CLEAN, wonderful atmosphere.

Quick service, polite people, fair pricing, and the new addition is beautiful, really brings out a sense of luxury. Not to mention, they take walk ins and last min appointments, which is awesome. read more

I walked in for a gel mani/pedi. I was incredibly disappointed in how incredibly basic they both were. The gel polish chipped on my right hand within 4 days, and I was not doing anything that would have caused this, I was on vacation no house cleaning or roughness with my hands. There was no lotion applied to my hands, or feet for that matter and the price $91 for the bare minimum was exorbitant. I asked for a Mickey Mouse head and for all of the nail art on their website, making 3 black dots on 2 fingers seemed difficult for the technician. read more

I just got a pedicure here and although I only got the regular pedicure, I was in and out of that place in about 10-15 minutes. They were good about getting us in right away because we had called ahead, but the pedicure was poorly done and super fast. They kept asking us if we wanted to upgrade our pedis, which we declined, but that shouldn't mean we receive terrible pedicures because we didn't upgrade. The polish was horribly done and I got told to turn my massage chair off. read more

My experience was okay but a little frustrating. I am getting ready for a graduation and wanted to treat myself. I asked for pink and white gel tips with an accent on my ring finger. My tech was courteous but I could tell she was getting frustrated with me as the service went on. She did not do the accent finger which I didn't catch until it was too late so I left it alone. She nicked me a few times but that's a typical risk. Given that the set cost $55 plus I gave a $20 tip, because they are in a service industry, I was disappointed. The best thing was that every single tech was masked (sometimes double) and that the tech didn't fuss me out about how short I wanted the tips. Not sure if I'll go back there for the fill when I need it, if I do I'll have to be much for explicit with what I want. read more

PT Nails - Pink and white - Nail Salons Near Me - Forest Lake, Minnesota

Worst experience I have ever had at a nail salon before. It was my daughters first time EVER. I got her GEL nails and after about ONE day they all completely came off. I go to the salon to show them and get a refund and they REFUSED to refund me, they kept wanting to fix their mistake, well if you would of done a good quality job in the beginning and didn't rush us and actually scrubbed our feet we wouldn't be back asking for a refund! They don't care about new customers obviously. I suggest going to turbo nails in Lino lakes! They are fantastic and take time and actually care!! read more

I did a walk in for a mani pedi. I was not asked what I wanted. when I did ask they were "too busy". They did apologize but, still. she was in a hurry the whole time. one foot didn't even get scrubbed. my nails were never buffed so the next day it all just started chipping and Cuticles left on my nails. I wa told it depends on the tech. Shouldn't it be the same treatment across the board?? She offered for me to come in and they would re-do it but it should have been done right the first time and not be made to feel you can't do a walk in because they are "too busy". read more

Great service and always make time for walk. Decent prices and the employees have great skills read more

The first time two of my nails fell off, I drove all the way back from North Branch to Forest Lake to have them fixed the following day. Another one fell off. Definitely very upset with the job. Two trips from North Branch to Forest Lake was ridiculous However,the manager agreed after much conversation to let a different girls do my nails With no extra charge. Danielle, was more than willing to do them for me. She did a superior job with an amazing attitude knowing she wasn't getting paid. Of course I left her a good tip. She is one person that I would recommend hands-down. be sure and ask for her when you go in. DANIELLE What an amazing Lady!! to leave a review. Stars is impossible so the five stars is on her and not the salon. The salon would get a one. read more

won't be going back. $50 for a dip?? very inexperienced tech doing my nails. Lumpy polish job and no lotion hand massage? Last fill under coat cracked on several nails. She said it was it was from the sun? Gave them other try, talked me into a gewy gel top coat over. Very sloppy polish job. Polish chipped off several tips the same night! read more

This place made my acrylics completely crooked and not even the same shape

Im new to the Forest Lake area when it comes to all the different nails shops located in this city, and I'm happy to say I've found a GREAT shop. This hidden gem is such a relaxing place! My nails were done by a tech named Jay, who did an AMAZING JOB!! I have major OCD so I know I can be a pain in the butt or annoying when it comes to how picky I am about my nails. Jay however did such a great job, that this was the first time ever I could just relax and let the nail tech do there thing. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this nail salon and also ask for Jay!!!! read more

Thus nail lady One cut my nails so short that it's painful and this has happened twice here. She also has made me bleed twice by over cutting cuticles. Her nail fiking is crooked and too painfully short. She talks and looks around the entire pedicure and manicure making the experience NOT relaxing. i will never return, two bad experiences is enough to determine not a good salon. read more

I've been going here since I was a kid and there haven't been any other places I've gone that compare to the customer service you get here. They are always really friendly and talkative and they remember who you are even if you stop going for a while. They always do a great job on my nails and they're very gentle. read more

Great service always does a good job. I've never had a problem with the nails not Turing out. Great at designs. Reasonable prices

They charged $50 for a powder dip manicure that turned out terrible. When I complained because there was paint on my skin surrounding the nails they said "that will come off later". Never put lotion on my nails despite paying for a manicure. Nails looked lumpy and sloppy. When I told them I shouldn't have to pay hey became hostile and rude. read more

My sister lives in Forest Lake and comes here often with her friend and I'm so glad I tagged along! Make an appointment, as they were really busy on the Tuesday night we went and the gal who did my nails, Sophie, said that was pretty normal. She did a great job and didn't use the filing machine on my real nails, which I really appreciated! She was nice to chat with and was quick too. I'd absolutely come back when I'm back for a visit! read more

PT Nails - Great job, Sophie! - Nail Salons Near Me - Forest Lake, Minnesota

These ladies are AMAZING. They are always helpful and they are experts at color matching. Definitely recommend this salon over others.

Having moved to FLake from Minneapolis last fall, I've been looking for a solid nail salon that delivers consistent service and does quality work. Having tried a couple in the area, I settled on PT Nails for a couple of months. Initially they seemed great, Nails looked good, staff was friendly. However my last two visits have been terrible. My visit last week revealed fungus on two nails. The tech said moisture got in, and that caused the fungus. She removed the layer of gel powder and put a new layer down. (She used the same tools on those nails for all my other nails, not sanitizing anything) She asked where I've been going, so I told her 'here!' And she barely said two more words to me the remainder of my visit. Then, When she was finished, i had to ask her to re-do two of my nails because they were bumpy and the gel powder was uneven, and the gel color wasn't applied evenly. She was not happy with my request, and charged me an extra $6 for the two repairs on the fungi Nails. I'm getting married in 1 month and now have to deal with brown fungi Nails. Awesome. Needless to say, I will not return to PT. read more

I am so mad........ I paid so much money or me and my friends nails. My fingers are bloody my hands are dry. I cried the entire way home. The people don't know English and they looked like they were making fun of me. My acrylic nails are crooked and neon pink, I asked for a baby pink. The entire time I was there I was hoping I would still have fingers by the time I left. They didn't even put lotion on me. My feet were in dirty water. I can't walk upstairs because I have no skin on the bottom of my foot. I have no toenails left. I have no pictures. read more

This nail salon offered the most reasonable prices on the polish changes I have ever seen. The ladies were very quick and efficient. Some of the tables were rundown and needing replacement but for the price it was fantastic. read more

NEVER going back! We made a reservation, they were confused, asked us to go and come back, then stopped us and sat us. The person who did my nails worked So fast and haphazardly that I have lumps, dull spots, smudges...it is just bad. Before I could say anything, she ran to do another customer. I was so upset, I felt it better to go, and have it fixed elsewhere. Shame on them for not caring! read more

I have been going to pt nails for over a year I am satisfied almost every time with the exception that I have always paid and asked for the top pedicure and have only ever actually got what I paid for once I would recommend the salon have a pedicure menu so we know exactly what we get so this doesn't keep happening also between pedicures I just do a gel polish change to match my nails but this last time was the worst 30 bucks to change my gel and it was put on so thick that it wasn't fully dry under the top layer think it is way over priced for a gel polish change especially if its going to be rushed and not last 2 weeks or more... read more

Like any typical salon they offer a handful of services, something new they have is the magnetic nail polish which is pretty cool looking. Stopped in with a friend yesterday morning and got taken care of right away. I got a basic pedicure and my friend got a gel manicure with the polish that changes colors with temperature. Service was fast. The girl who did my feet did not want to talk, and then left halfway through to help someone else, then I had someone else come over and finish my pedicure. She did a fantastic job with massaging my feet and calves tho, probably the best part of all of it. I got a turquoise color with little rhinestones at the base of my big toe nail. The overall look so far seems decent. My biggest complaint is that they didn't really get any of the rough calluses off which is one of the most important parts I think. I paid $30 total. read more

they did an amazing job and i was only in there for about 25 minutes. the selection of colors in crazy. i recommend this place 100%.

We called to make an appt because Yelp reviews looked good.. We were rushed and given only a bare minimum attention and lousy service..others that came after us were seen first.. it might be homecoming weekend but as new customers we were treated rudely, a gel nail manicure my daughter-in/law got was finished in 10 mins.. no consideration on taking off rings before applying lotion.. the pedi was worse I have ever had.. read more

Talented and efficient staff. This salon never disappoints. Love to bring my granddaughters and they love it too. Keep up the great work.

Went to Pt nails for 15 years . Now Lynn the owner is the only one that knows what she is doing . The other techs are horrible. When Lynn was gone tried others but nails kept breaking or were different lengths! They don't Sanitize tools now either read more

I made an appointment after work and when I got there I had to wait for about 20 minutes. Once I got started, I got passed from one girl to another because the first girl that I started with had an appointment come in, as did I make an appointment but was treated unimportant. The second girl that finished my nails, made me feel rushed, once she sat me down to dry she sprayed the enamel stuff in my nails cause little bubbles to dry on my nails because the nail polish was so thick. Not hugely impressed, which is disappointing since I had a lot of friends recommend this place. read more

I love this place. The people are so friendly and the prices are very reasonable. They have a great assortment of nail colors. There is little to no wait with an appointment but even with a drop in they do their best to get you done fast. read more

Great people, fantastic service. Kim did my pedicure and it was wonderful. She was completely done 1/2 hr and my calloused feet were like baby bottoms so soft! Great massage too. New place, brand new chakras, and friendly people! Highly recommend read more

I have continually tried to return to this salon. They continue to cut corners on their pedicures especially if walk in come in they then hurry you out. $41.00 for a 'regular" pedicure with gel polish (burn with lamp 2xs) and the next day the heals of my feet felt like sandpaper because they SAW on your heals which is not they way to do heals. I hope they enjoyed the big tip I gave them cuz they won't get my money again. read more
