This was one of the worst pedicures I've ever had. I basically paid to have my feet washed and polish changed. There was almost no skin or foot care involved. And this was after choosing one of the pedicures that was specifically supposed to come with all of that and asking the tech multiple times for it. I have friends who come here to get nail extensions and designs and they have said good things, so it may just be that this place specializes in those more complicated services and doesn't really care to do the basics. I will not be returning. read more

I've been coming to this salon for pedicures for a while, but unfortunately my experience on Saturday was really disappointing. The nail tech who worked on me (Judy) seemed rushed and uninterested the entire time. She was rough while working on my toes and kept pressing her thumbnail into my big toe, which was uncomfortable. I also noticed that my big toenail ended up being cut at an angle, and when I pointed it out, it wasn't acknowledged or corrected. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I also asked for a specific polish color that I've gotten before ("Lucky Red"), but was told they no longer carry it. The alternative color that was used wasn't what I asked for and didn't look the same.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Another uncomfortable moment was when I was paying and the technician stood over me the entire time while I was trying to resolve a quick banking issue.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I will say that when the male manager is present, the shop usually runs much more professionally and I've had good experiences in the past. Unfortunately my recent service didn't reflect that standard, and because of this experience I'll likely look for another salon moving forward. read more

I got a really great gel polish manicure here! I loved how shaped the result was. I appreciated the fan to suck the gel being shaved dust. Kept everything so clean and pleasant. The cuticle care was great, and so was the complimentary massage! I'm really pleased with the results! Very affordable for the service rendered. read more

I have not written anything like this previously. I left after 15 minutes. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Made an appointment for 930 a.m. when they opened.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Basic manicure, not gel. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Not one person spoke English[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], I asked for Ballet Slippers, Essie, they had old nail polish, the tools were not sterilized nor in packaging, the Technicians apron was filthy, a plastic bowl with cold water to soak, was not sure she was of legal age. The place was absolutely filthy. The worst. I am filing a complaint with the HD. Needs to be closed down. Oppressive wanted me to 'pay" before polish. I said no thanks. Paid for a filing with a dirty file and asked for a "towel" to put under my hand. DO NOT GO HERE. read more

This place deserves 10 stars. They were incredibly busy with some tough cilents and handled it extremely well, while making sure everyone got their nails done. Also, my nails look SO GOOD! Overall, I would recommend. read more

QQ Nail Review Let me start by saying that I'm a regular of QQ Nails. I never had an issue. I've had conversations with Karen about her two sons and even suggested that she consider changing her hair color. Brown is boring. [[HIGHLIGHT]]On Friday, June 20, I called to schedule an appointment for 6:30. I wanted to allow myself time to arrive, as I was coming from purchasing a car and needed to stop and feed my child. I did that, but it still wasn't enough time, so I called again and told her husband, the manager, that I would be there at 7:15. He said it was okay and to take my time.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I fed my kid, arrived in the area, went to the 7-11, disciplined my kid for egregious misbehavior, and then came to QQ Nails to relax. It was about 7:14. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When I got to the store, the manager, Karen's husband, laughed and then outwardly embarrassed me because he said I was late. I'm flustered because I had to correct a child, and I'm confused because I did call. Now, I'm embarrassed in front of customers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It doesn't stop there. He takes off my hand polish but then takes me to the back to do a pedicure. I sit down, and in the bowl, there is little water with debris at the bottom. I'm unsure if the bag has been used, and the spout from which the water is supposed to come out is submerged in the water. The bowl is filled only 1/4 of the way; it looks disgusting and is not up to the quality expected for $150. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I questioned him the first time. He takes off the polish from my first toe, and he says it's clean. I look again, and he says it's clean, and his voice elevates. "You don't trust me. You don't trust me!" I'm looking at it, and it is clear that the water is dirty. I ask him why he is yelling. He refuses to give me service and proceeds to say, "I'm the manager!"[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Karen comes around the corner and makes excuses for his behavior. She puts her hands around me, and I pull back. She says, "We've been working all day." Well, I worked as well. Her husband talked to me as if I was a dog. Not only that, she came over to brush off my concern and only apologized while looking over at the other customers, white, because she didn't want to upset them.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Karen didn't stop there. She's having a conversation with her employee, a young man; his sides are cut with a ponytail on top. I had to literally say to them, 'If something needs to be said, please say it in English, because I refuse to be disrespected in your native language. My daughter later told me that Karen even made the environment so comfortable for the customers that they would say, "Hey, I go back there and yell at her." I know what my daughter is saying is true because one actually did get up and come back. At the end of my service, Karen took, I believe, $30 off of my bill. That is still not enough to cover up the fact of how Black I felt. This world will never let you forget you are Black. When I say world, I mean white and even immigrants. Everyone will always have this thing, where they will feel like they have to put a Black person "in their place". This isn't a review to deter anyone from visiting QQ Nails, as I have students who are patrons of this business. Although, as an English teacher I've taught my students to use their voice when people have wronged them. QQ Nails, you have wronged me. There is no excuse for you not to provide quality service, even at closing. Karen change that fucking hair color; again, it's so dull. I see you in a like a wine color and wear some lipstick sometimes. Make him worry. For the manager, I'm not a dog and you had no right to talk to me like that. For the young man that felt like you had a right to chime in, I feel sorry for you. You are under the tutelage of misguidance. Signing off Yelp-Ms. Moore-The Reading Lady read more

I've been a customer for years. Karen and John have a great staff and they do a fantastic job. Were very conscientious during the pandemic. I've had pedicures, gel nails and eyebrows done. Highly recommend. read more

I come here ALL the time for acrylics and gel pedicures. This is my LAST time coming back. I paid $15 for acrylic removal. It took the girl 30 min to do THIS (see pictures). There is clearly a huge amount of acrylic left on my nails. You can see it, I can feel it. It's unhealthy for your nails and unacceptable to not get the full service I paid for done properly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I told the guy at checkout after the girl told me she was finished with me and he motioned for me to sit back down, but I was in a rush and had to go. Just to say, they KNOW this is not a proper job done.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I must be a sadist because I have always paid them $70 plus a large tip to do the most MID AMATEUR acrylics ever. I just come back again and again because there is no place closer to me and I am generally not one to complain/be picky. I wish I had pictures of those to share. My main issues with their general acrylics are: they are always bumpy/lumpy and uneven, too thick and unflattering very unnatural looking compared to the way other salons with experience and precision do them. Occasionally they will be SOOO crooked too lmao. The last time I came, literally 5 out of my 10 nails were superrrr crooked (like embarrassingly so, I couldn't even post a picture on my insta story they looked so bad) and I got a beautiful chrome color over gel. Too bad the chrome flaked off IMMEDIATELY, within the same day the tips of my nails were all white in a very ugly way and over the next few days patches kept flaking off. I ended up having to paint regular old polish over my acrylics just to look presentable for my day to day until I could get back to the salon. In summary: only get acrylics here if you have very low standards and too big of a wallet, don't expect them to ever be able to remove your acrylics properly (aka be prepared for fungal infections), definitely do NOT get chrome because it won't last even one day. HOWEVER, the pedicures are truly amazing, and if I felt like giving them my money again I would only get a pedicure here. read more

I have had my nails done twice here at QQ - two different technicians. Both did really great jobs! I appreciated their swift work, readiness for my appointment time and they have been willing to do small designs I requested (and turned out very cute!!). Prices are very reasonable for builder gel manicures, I have not had a pedicure here yet but plan to. It is pretty low key - if you're looking for a fancy place this isn't it. But if you're looking for a quality nail salon, who respects your time and money then I recommend! read more

I've had great experiences every time I've come so far ~ Since I'm not a regular yet, I go with someone new each time and everyone has done really well. While the place doesn't have many frills, the service has been wonderful for both manicure and pedicure. I'll be coming back again :) This time I got the tip extensions with "fiber gel" +gel polish on top. read more

QQ Nails & Spa - Manicure sns dip - Nail Salons Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I just moved to the neighborhood, and I've been to QQ twice - once for a gel pedicure and another time for a dip (SNS) manicure. They did a great job both times. The prices are very reasonable. They can get busy, so I've always called ahead to ask if it's a good time so that they're expecting me when I arrive. They do prefer to be paid in cash, and they will ask you to use the ATM at the desk. I'm going to try to have cash next time so I don't need to use their ATM (although that works fine). I love that I can walk to QQ. But they've also done a good job both times I've been in. I'm definitely going to be a regular. read more

QQ Nails & Spa - SNS dip manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I came in on a Saturday afternoon as a walk-in for a gel mani and luckily they were able to take me right away. My nail tech was friendly and efficient. I was out in less than an hour! I had to select a color three different times because they didn't have the colors I selected, which was unfortunate. I also noticed some bubbles in a few of my nails afterwards, which wasn't ideal. Despite that, my nails lasted a long time and I was pleased with the shape. The salon itself is a bit outdated, so you're not coming here for a frilly spa experience. However, I would definitely return for quick and efficient service the next time I'm in the area! read more

the service and professionalism here is terrible. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I scheduled a appointment with a specific tech. when I came for my appointment they tried to let anyone do my nails instead of saying the tech wasn't available[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and [[HIGHLIGHT]]instead of communicating properly, they yelled in my face, started slamming stuff and said "I don't wan do your nails" very rude. very disrespectful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

My nail tech was aggressive with filing for a regular manicure and upon removing the polish I have deep scratches visible over all my nails which will take months to fully grow out. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I had just waited several months for my nails to grow out after being severely thinned and damaged from use of an e-file at a different salon, so this was very disappointing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The polish was applied well and stayed on for several weeks without chipping (rare for a regular manicure in my experience), [[HIGHLIGHT]]but now I have to deal with damaged nails for the next few months.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

QQ Nails & Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Ok. So I live near by and began visiting this location in December of 2019. Based on yelp reviews and pictures. There was a lady there who did great nails and awesome designs very professional sweet and really tries to meet your request. I'm not certain if she's there any longer. It's clean they have great scheduling. The gentleman who I believe is the owner, maybe not, is always super kind and accommodating. Unfortunately I have to leave this negative review. Due to the fact that I've had such a great experience for almost a year and it went south all because my nail tech was in a rush. This location was actually the last outing I had before I had my baby 5 weeks prior, This is the first time I'm leaving my baby, im a new mom, birthdays the following day, there are just a lot of factors here. I went to get a pedicure for my birthday and eyebrows waxed, my pedicure was rushed in comparison to every other time. Nbd nails looked ok. I added the service of eyebrows. My sister went 1st with her nail tech and the entire time my tech walked in and out of the room while she was getting the service, hovering. I wanted to tell her it was fine I wasn't in a rush but realized that she clearly was. My sister finished up and had no complaints about her work with her tech. I go in she begins my eyebrows I tell her exactly what I want and don't want. She butchers my brows completely. The owner comes in and says not to worry she's going to fix it but it's so bad, it can't be fixed. The tech who did my sisters comes in and pluck the few sporadic left behind because she's confused how to help atp. The owner apologized and said I could come back the next day for them to be fixed . There's no fixing brows that look like this. Also there were no customers there when we arrived not as we were leaving. Birthday officially ruined. All the money and effort I put in for my 30th gone to waste over a $10 eyebrow service. I literally look like someone attacked my face. read more

Coco was great. She waxed my eyebrows, lip, and chin area. She was quick and made it as painless as possible. I'll be back for sure!

They generally are prepared for my appointment on time, occasionally have to wait. The service is pleasant & caters to your individual preferences. I generally get a regular pedicure & gel on my nails. They're very accommodating to my needs as I am recovering from a stroke. My bf helps me into pedicure chair & I get the manicure in the same chair. Both the pedi/mani looks great every time. read more

0 stars. Worst place ever to get your eyebrows done from. They reshaped my eyebrow and took a part of my eyebrow off to the part closer to my nose so my eyebrows are VERY spaced apart. Would never go back. Very unprofessional, when told they did something wrong it's no no they look good. I will never be returning and letting everyone I know, to not go there. EVER. Do not waste your money there because you'll probably end up punching someone. read more

I give this place 3 stars because I came in for a pedicure with my boyfriend on a Sunday morning and the salon was empty. I wanted a pedicure and my boyfriend wanted a massage. I was seated immediately and when my boyfriend asked for a massage we learned that is not a service they offer individually... so he decided to just get a pedi too. The pedicure from Eva was very very VERY nice! I loved the whole process. Eva definitely put a lot of work in (my feet really needed it lol). I really loved the hot stone on my legs! Eventually we were done and my toes were dry but when I got home a few hours later, my heels still had a bit of rough skin. After a day or two, I noticed the paint wasn't wrapped over the top of my toenails so the natural color shows. Today is Wednesday and after looking closer at my toes, the nail layers are separated /split. I'm very impulsive so I unfortunately started picking at them but that was kind of a waste of money :/ maybe I'll come back and ask for a toenail file instead of cut. But overall I am satisfied. read more

Great Chinese nail salon with top notch skills and color selections! The staff here was friendly but rushed for both times I was there. They wanted you to choose your colors fast because they were really busy on Friday afternoons. However, even with the limited staff, they still took their time and get the job done. Both times (first time gold sparkle, and second time French) stayed more than 3 weeks! The only thing I didn't like is that they only take cash as tip, and the ATM machine charges a $5 flat fee for withdrawing cash. read more

I went here for a mother's day pedicure. I walked in & said hello. The guests/patrons replied & none of the employees looked up or responded. I repeated hello & excuse at least two more times before anyone looked up. Luckily a guest told them that i was standing there. I personally think it was rude, but i stayed because i was pressed for time and they were open pretty early. The facility was clean, they supplied sanitizer & did temp checks once they finally acknowledged i was there. I hate how often that happens and normally i would never return an establishment after that. But.... the woman who did my pedicure was amazing! My experience after that was really pleasant. Oh & the foot massage was LOVE! I got the paraffin pedicure. My feet were sooo... NEW ! Lol i walked out feeling great! And i made sure she knew she made my day! Because of her i JUST MAY go back! read more

I was hesitant to try them because it isn't fancy at all- it's kinda in a basement but my nails are over a week old and still look good. Not thick or Cake like. My pedicure was spot on - she took her time to scrub my toes a lot of them shy away when your ticklish like me but she knew how to adjust. read more

The staff was nice.. they are open on Sundays which is great especially during this pandemic. My girlfriend and I were able to get in an out at the same time. They are pretty expensive in IMO. They charge $20 extra for gel nails and the $30 pedicure is basically just to polish your toes. Five more if you want your feet scrubbed like a "normal" pedicure.. so basically after a manicure with my real nails and pedi with gel polish on both I paid $100 for this experience. Which was honestly not an experience at all. It was basic. I wasn't happy with the pricing, I felt like I was being nickeled and dimed.. the tech I had cut one of my toes since one of my fingers (still a scar) and I had to tell her Twice she applied way too much pressure and though she was nice, she didn't listen. Overall, I won't be going back. read more

This was probably one of the worst nail experiences I've had. There were a number of people waiting after me to get serviced, and the woman doing my nails was a pleasant woman, but was clearly rushing through the job in order to get to the other people. I was getting an overlay with gel, short, in a square shape. The polish was bubbly, my nails were different lengths, and they were not at all square shaped. There were thick layers of acrylic under my fingernails. Terrible job. I had to ask for a nail file to use so I could shape them myself. A shame, because the lady was nice but clearly rushed through and didn't care about how my nails turned out. I got a pedicure as well, but in the middle of it the lamp died, and once it was plugged in, it could barely reach my feet so I had to tilt my feet at an angle for the rest of the polishing process. Overall, bad experience. Never going back. read more

I've been here a few times. While not bad, still not great...something about the cheese grater turns me off. Anytime I ask for a French manicure... I never seem to get exactly what I want. I decided to try QQ again and to my surprise... they have really upped their game. I didn't get anyone's name (should have) the first woman shaped and trimmed, she was attentive as she prepped them. First few coats done flawlessly. The second girl came over to do the French tips and I have never.... NEVER been so pleased with the outcome. This is the best French manicure I have EVER had. The tips were thin and fit my small hands with natural nails. I will definitely be coming back. Also like to add that this is my go to for eyebrow waxing. They do a great job. read more

I had a great experience at QQ Nails & Spa! I went for the first time today, and I'll admit, I was a little anxious about it. I haven't had my nails done in years. The woman who did my nails was so fantastic! I'm very self conscious about my body because I have a lot of visible scars, but the nail tech made me feel so comfortable. It's a small, casual place that makes it comfortable but you still feel like you're getting quality work done. Prices were reasonable and I will definitely be going back in the future. read more

Disappointment. Never coming back. Although they are nice and work fast the work is sloppy. I came in yesterday and before leaving, owner placed plastic on feet so the toes wouldnt be damaged when hitting my dress shoe. I suggested to wait for them to dry. Once I got home, what I thought would happen; happened. A hot mess! So I returned the next day, they "fixed" it without issue. Still sloppy bc they painted outside the line if you will. This place is a hit or miss. If you get a good one then you are good. read more
