Came in with my girlfriend. She got her nails done and I got all my nails trimmed + they gave me a massage as well. Nice people and even offered us water. Calm and relaxing environment. Would definitely recommend as this place was much more bang for our buck compared to where we've been before. read more

I was shocked at the low rated reviews on here. My friend and I stumbled upon this place on a Friday night after dinner when we found a nail salon open after 7pm. I gave the salon a call and they were happy to accommodate us even though we were 15 mins away, we were thrilled. We both got gel manicures. The workers were kind and quick. My nail technician was especially patient when I couldn't decide what nail color I wanted. Our service was done a little before 8pm on the dot and it was only $35 each before tip. I can see parking being a little difficult here during busy hours since it's in belltown, but definitely worth it in my opinion. Another customer came in around 7:30pm requesting a mani/pedi and the owner happily agreed to provide service. TIP: Call in advance to ensure they're open if it's later at night! read more

My BFF and I were visiting the area and have been meaning to get manicures. It initially caught my eye because it was a brightly lit shop, had a sign that said walk-ins welcome, was empty, and had decent pricing. Gel manicures were $31, removal $10, design $10. We were told we could take seats and were promptly helped. Huong helped me and did a great job. It wasn't perfect, but I felt like she took care in her work. She completed my mani, gave me a nice/firm hand massage, and hot towel. It all felt marvelous. My friend had to have their old gel polish removed. Huong helped them and also did her interpretation of cow print. My friend LOVED it and that is all the matters! We both left happy customers and appreciated Huong's personable approach to nail care. Thank you! read more

Great pedicure. Did not feel rushed, loved the scrub and massage and we even went to Alki beach afterwards and our polish held up to the sand and rocks! read more

Tried them a few times but my nails continued to break after only a few days. Very disappointing when you pay so much to have them done. Mind you I have an office job and the nails would break while putting my coat on. read more

I moved to town 4 weeks ago from NJ, so as it happens, I was in need of a fill-in. I have UV builder gel overlay (NOT acrylic) on my natural nails. I started with extensions years ago and eventually grew them out enough that now my actual/natural nails are the base of the overlay. I do not use acrylic powder on my nails anymore since I began to grow them out. When I did acrylics, they ALWAYS lifted and really damaged my nails. The UV gel just works better on my nails, lasts longer, and does not lift. I called around to multiple nail salons in Queen Anne & Belltown (and by multiple I mean every single one) and this was the only one that said they could do a UV builder gel fill-in. Since I am still carless and have to Uber everywhere, I called once again before I left my house to reconfirm that they can do UV builder gel and NOT acrylic. The woman who answered the phone assured me that they could, so I made my way over for a 5:45pm appointment. Well, it turns out, NO UV GEL. The nail tech took out the acrylic powder and liquid and I immediately stopped her. "I asked if you have gel on the phone and you said you did. I called twice, do you have gel?" She insisted that "this is powder gel." I said, "no it is not. There is no such thing as that. Do you have gel?". "This IS powder gel". Again, NO IT IS NOT. It was acrylic powder (has a very distinct smell!). Furthermore, there is no such thing as "powder gel". I even went on my phone and googled it (try it!) in front of her. At this point, I just had to get my nails done so I was like "okay lady. FINE." I made the trip. Whatever. She started doing my fill, all the while I am pretty pissed off that this woman has lied to me multiple times, but she's not doing a bad job so I'm dealing. I know these are going to lift off in a week or two, but by then I will be in NJ for the holidays and a legit nail tech who knows what they are doing can give me a new set (sorry I'm not sorry, Seattle, but you don't know shit about nails). We get to the end and she takes the drill to file underneath the tip of my nails. Most techs do this to prevent lifting, just to the very tip of the extended nail. WELP, SHE FILED/DRILLED OFF MY ENTIRE NATURAL NAIL. I immediately said, "Stop! Please do not do that. Those are my real nails." And she said "Oh! Ok. Sorry." And proceed to KEEP DOING IT. Beneath the overlay, she just went to town on almost every nail, forcibly grabbing my fingers even though I asked her to stop multiple times. Finally, I forcefully told her to "STOP filing off my natural nail! That is my real nail!" And she told me to go wash my hands. As I'm washing I'm assessing the damage and I can see that she's drilled off my natural nail underneath 6 of my nails. I started to cry at the sink. It took me YEARS to finally get my nails to grow. I was and still am devastated. I was so upset I would not allow the tech to put color on me, I just wanted to leave. When I asked her why she did that, and why she lied to me about the initial service she responded with silence. This woman had absolutely nothing to say. Not even an apology. Stay away from this place! And if anyone in the Seattle area has recommendations for LEGITIMATE nail salons, please share! read more

Stopped in for the first time and I will be a regular client now. The staff are very friendly and attentive. The appointment was easy to make by calling the number on their site. I opted in for the luxury mani and pedi. It was worth every penny and luxury was exactly what it was. Afterwards, my feet and hands were smooth and I was completely relaxed. I opted in for the paraffin this time but will likely add the hot stones as well to top this ultimate relaxation. Can't wait until the next time to stop in. read more

In a sea of nail salons, this one is not special by any means. The staff is really kind but they said they could do designs and left my nails looking like a toddler did them. overpriced too. Avoid going here for designs and manicures. They went too short on my cuticles. Overall bad experience and will not be back. read more

They are open! I loved this place before COVID-19 and love it even more now. Family run business, so I know all of the nail artists and they are doing a great job at abiding by new health guidelines. Masks are required, they sanitize everything before and after (some items are single use now) and they are very respectful at keeping as much space between us. I've only ever seen one other person here at the same time I am, so no worries of overcrowding. I get my gel done here and it lasts about 2-3 weeks (lasted 5 on my toes during covid lol...), and they always help out when I need a quick fix. Definitely recommend! read more

I was in a hurry and ended up coming here. Got dipping powder manicure ($50) and a regular pedicure ($29). If they have to remove gel off your nails its an extra $5-$10. The lady who did my manicure was a bit rough but did the job quick. She also came up with a quick solution for a broken nail I had (put on a tip on just that nail for no charge). The lady who did my pedicure was gentle and gave a great massage. Because of her im changing my review from 3 stars to 4. If you're okay with a few ouches here and there in exchange for quickness, this is the right place. If you're looking for spa treatment, this isnt the place for you. Decent spot but definitely don't expect anything fancy. Update: Changing this to 2 stars because of my most recent experience. The same lady did my dipping powder manicure. She cut one of my fingers pretty bad and didn't acknowledge it. She also charged me an extra $5 at the end ($55 instead of $50) with no clear reason. I called before I came in to make an appointment and she confirmed the price was $50 over the phone. When I asked her about it it seemed like she made up a reason. I'm not sure if there was miscommunication hence me not giving less stars but definitely didn't get a good vibe. I probably won't be coming back here. read more

I went to this place despite the low ratings because it's close to my home. Pros: - Reasonable prices - Quick service - Don't need appointments Cons: - They damage your nails my removing multiple layers of the nail when taking off dip nails - Cuticles are cut far too deep. My skin bled a little after. - Questionable sanitary practices. The woman dipped my nail directly in the original powder. I wondered how many other hands were in the same containe read more

I went in for a simple acrylic removal and they used an acrylic nail to violently rip off my nails without using acetone to soak it filling before hand and ended up ripping off part of my nail and left me bleeding in the salon. I told them not to touch that nail and just shape my other nails and add a protective clear coat and in doing that they ended up cutting me on two of my other fingers. In the end they charged me $28 despite all the damages they did to my nails. read more

Would not recommend Not worth the price, I feel like they rushed through even though I was the only customer and they didn't want to fix anything or ask if I was satisfied they just said okay done bye and had me leave they had me pay $70 up front for something I didn't ask for on top of that they were crooked and different lengths they had my boyfriend leave the store and I felt uncomfortable to be alone and not be heard by the staff read more

I have come here several times for pedicure. Staff are mostly Asians, do not speak much English but their work is good. Last weekend I went there again and the place was very busy.

I went with a friend on a Sunday and I called ahead of time to see if they accept walk-ins (fortunately they do). We walked in to a very clean and tidy facility with properly posted COVID-19 precautions and guidelines for customers. My friend and I decided on mani-pedi (luxury option). The service was outstanding! The technicians were very nice and professional. They did an amazing job as we both left very satisfied with the quality of service for a very good price (better than Myano's). I will definitely be returning again as a regular customer and will recommend this place to all my friends and family whenever they are in the Seattle Area. read more

I've been searching for a new permanent nail salon since moving from Downtown to Lower Queen Anne and I'm so happy I finally found this place! The staff is very friendly, professional, and does an excellent job! The prices are very reasonable and the salon is extremely clean, well-maintained, and inviting. I ended up getting the classic manicure and pedicure with a burgundy gel polish. All proper safety measures are being taken and everyone is wearing a mask and using clean gloves. I will definitely be returning here again and bringing my roommate with me next time too! read more

This salon is very clean and well maintained. I went here on a recommendation from co-workers. Made an appointment and was a bit early. I was the only customer. It was a Wednesday afternoon. The lady that did my nails was FAST. I was impressed with that. Just a standard gel manicure. My fingers look way better than when I went in. Not very welcoming though. No idle chit chat which was ok just odd. Another employee came in as I was getting a quick hand massage and they began talking to each other. My whole sit down time was probably 20 minutes. Super efficient. Next I had my eyebrows waxed and that was super fast too. I love them as well. I would probably go again. I'm just going to be further away now. $28 for gel manicure and $12 for eyebrows. Pretty standard! read more

Warning: this place will change prices. I walked in last week, inquiring about prices. (I live in Belltown and have my pick of places!) I was greeted immediately, was handed a brochure, very complete, for all their services. I told the gal I may be in next week. Today I visited. I chose my color. (The gal was great!) After a 'spa pedicure', I was charged $$5.00 more PLUS an additional $1 for the 'extra wear color', than what the brochure stated! (The extensive array of colors did not delineate prices, either!) Unfortunately, the gal's tip was reflected in the error in pricing. It was all I had allotted for the pedicure! This brochure, still on display should be REMOVED, updated. Very disheartened as I thought 'I'd found my place'. read more

I asked some friends and the gals at Wax On Belltown about where to go for a pedicure, and one person from each group said "Go to the spot near 2nd and Cedar. It's good AND cheap." So I walked over there, and got invited in while I was standing outside trying to read the Yelp reviews. They had 2 or 3 ladies working, one customer getting a manicure at a station, and 3 older ladies that were visiting Seattle in the massage chairs. They rinsed my feet and got the warm/hot water going so my feet could soak. While they did that, I just read my book and listened to the talkative tourists. I was curious about manicures because I had never had one before, so while my feet were being worked on, another employee came over and took care of my hands. The pedicure was definitely a much more relaxing experience, but I enjoyed having my hands briefly massaged and fingernails quickly shaped and painted. The leg massage and pedicure work was all fine and standard. I loved my shiny, shaped, and colorful nails, but was a bit sad that they did not shave or scrub or whatever the dry/rough parts of my feet. I thought that was a standard part of a pedicure, and that was one of the big reasons why I wanted one. Total for manicure and pedicure came to $28. Not bad at all! A good affordable spot in a convenient location if you're in or near Belltown. I don't love it, but I definitely like it! read more

They did a great job on my Shellac. Good price, clean place, great hours! I appreciate the attention to detail of getting the sides I each nail and close to the cuticle and they did great! Nothing worse than walking our of a mani and looking like you have a week of grow out! The shellac color choice was pretty good- they have a GREAT sparkly gold and a nice red with some shimmer that I got for the holidays. I did gold on my ring fingers and red on the rest - the only charged a buck more for two colors. They all speak proficient English and are super sweet! It lasted for two weeks and the only reason I need to get a new shellac mani because of the grow out. The shellac is peeling at my cuticle on a few of the nails- this is my second time doing shellac so I don't know of that's normal or not. read more

Nope. Run, don't walk, from this place. Never cried in a nail salon before today. They RIPPED off my natural nails. Ripped. They were long and strong with a dip manicure on them. And they ripped them off! When I asked why they said they were already peeling and loose. If that was the case it wouldn't have ripped ripped ripped off my nails! Then they tried to just paint over them. All different lengths. So. I cried. And they put tips on. And charged me for them. I am flabbergasted. Then they didn't listen to what I wanted, putting the wrong color on all the nails. Completely blotting out the first color. And then she starts sanding it down and it starts coming off in patches! And she wants to leave it that way! I make her sand all of the second color off. Then they rush job my toe paint. I'm so sad and angry. And they want me to tell them good job! Total cost 73 dollars. read more

Great place for nails and waxing. I've been getting mani/pedis done for over a year here. Customer service is good; as soon as you walk in you are greeted, even if it's super busy. Great craftsmanship on the nail art and acrylics... I love my acrylics! The gentleman that does them is extremely talented at shaping my nails exactly the way I want them. I also love my gel french pedicures (they last well over a month). The prices are very reasonable for the value on all services! read more

Horrible place. Charges too high for a crappy job. If you claim to be a nail salon know what you guys are doing

I don't enjoy writing bad reviews. This was a truly bad nail experience. When a business has 2 stars average you have to take that seriously. I unfortunately took a chance on Seattle Nails and Waxing and regret it. I came in to get a pedicure, which I've gotten at many other establishments in the past 10 years so I can pretty accurately compare competencies. They didn't uniformly cut my nails on both feet. Some were very long and others short. Despite paying for extra massage, I didn't get more than 2 minutes total. They didn't use "toe separators" when painting the toenails so they hit each other and dried smudged. They don't have toenail driers so you sit for a longer time than usual at a salon waiting for them to dry. The establishment does not appear to have ventilation so I felt bad for the women working there; there was a very strong nail solvent smell. Maybe the ventilation explains why the older women doing most of my pedicure was in a bad mood? It was a very odd experience. read more

This place is a few blocks from where I live. Manicures are cheap, and depending on who you get, they do a decent job. Pros: Close to home Clean Shellac Cons: Lots of similar colors to pick from (ie: 10 different shades of "red"). Not a huge variety of colors. One foot was out of commission. The owner charged me full price at first. I asked her to charge me half price since they only painted 5/10 toenails. She said no and charged me 3/4 the price for a pedicure. Super annoying. Whatever. I haven't been back for a pedicure since then. read more
