Michelle B.

Mimi was wonderful ! He took his time and I will be back ! Please come check them pit

My latest gel manicure.
Beth S.

Clean and stylish decor. I've had good experiences with all the technicians for both manicures and pedicures. I really like that I see them take the tools out of sealed plastic. That hasn't been my experience with other salons in the area.

Uneven nail cuts with paint that starts above the cuticle
Kelley K.

This is a bummer. I've been here a few times now and while the place looks great, is exceptionally clean, and comfortable, the actual product (in my case a pedicure) is subpar. I'm attaching photos of my pedicure today and you can see that only part of my little toe nails were painted, while my big toe has paint in my skin and the nails unevenly cut. This lack of attention to detail has been my experience at Serenity over all, but do to its location, I have kept trying just hoping that at the next appointment I would meet the right technician. I probably should have complained about this last pedicure but I had already wasted so much time and wanted to get out of there. At this point though I think it is time for me to find another place that likes repeat business.

Excessive nail polish that wasn't bothered to be removed.
Ali A.

Very disappointed. I have been a loyal customer to this salon for a few years now. Although I can't complain about my regular nail tech who always does a wonderful job. My visit on November 21st was very disappointing and upsetting. I called the day of to request a gel full set and the owner informed me that they did not have a full staff that day but that her husband was able to take us in with no problem. Now since I did have my brothers wedding the day of I was in desperate need to get my nails done. I did appreciate her getting both myself and my friend in the same day. The service and experience I got from her husband was not what I expected. He started with my friend on her full set and then continued with my full set. He was not attentive to what I had requested at all. I felt like he was rushing through the service as if he had somewhere to be. Here are my complaints.. 1) He did not even give us the option of the shape of the nail.. he went right off to start with a coffin shape which by the time I realized it was too late so I did not say anything. 2) The size of the tips for certain nails didn't seem to be the correct size for that specific nail 2) Some of the nails were overfilled by the acrylic powder. 3) The nail polish wasn't fully painted on the whole nail as it should be which made the nails look like it was 3 weeks in already. 4) There was effort to clean up the area of leftover nail polish on my hands I didn't realize all of this until I left the salon and since I had my brothers wedding the day of I didn't have time to actually complain in person until 2 days later. Now I did make an appointment after the incident on December 18th given the fact that my regular tech was back but I thought since the owner was aware of the disappointment in the previous visit she would come and apologize and correct the problem. She did not offer any type of reimbursement or compensation which did not show good customer service at all. I was able to bare with their overpriced services only because of my nail tech doing a wonderful job. Now although I will miss her very much but with the lack of detail to customer service I do not see myself coming back. I no longer recommend this place.

Fruit and iced lemon water
Lyn L.

Yelp came through...again... I love my nail place in Fairfax but had read such good reviews about Serenity Nails & Spa, and this place is a tad closer to me. It was also easy to get a very last minute appt so off I went! The space is awesome. It's different compared to the plethora of nails places in the area. When I walked in, I saw small spaces of pedi loungers. It was not a big room filled with a long line of pedicure loungers. This place has their sectioned off in separate areas. There are 4-6 chairs in each section. I feel like it's a bit more intimate and private. They also have a VIP room( 4 chairs and a private area with a glass door) that you can book for an extra $10 a person, you add it to your pedicure selection(pedi priced from $35 on up depending on what kind of scrub, organic treatments, etc). They have a big menu of services just for pedicures. I was impressed by the offer of fruit and beverages(sodas, water all served in nice glasses). They use timers here because they advertise about $1 a minute, and want to make sure you get your full treatment. It's a cool concept. My pedi was awesome. I added the salt scrub for an addition $5. I also had some fancy painting done. They took their time and made sure everything was pristine. Each staff member was friendly, accommodating and patient. I'd definitely come back again although I will miss the hot stone and neck massages (complimentary) from my other place.

New plexiglass windows for safety, however I don't think they are low enough
Kristen S.

Eh, they as many nail salons do is try to up sell but they are already so expensive. $38 for a pedicure, and that's the lowest option. They now only take apps or cash for payment, no cc use. I appreciate the attempts in social distancing and added safety measures but I'll try another salon to find the best one for me

Hot tea served!
Nomin D.

I've been coming here several times now... and just over it! I come here because of the convenience and the availability of associates without appointments. However, it is starting to feel like it's not worth it anymore. I pay $35 to get my gel manicure down but in 5 days, the polish start to chip away! It does not happen with other places! It happened to me last few times too! And even one time, the entire polish came off at once while I was on vacation. That polish was only on there for 4 days at the time. I'm not paying $35 to keep my gel polish for 5 days! It's suppose to last me at least 2 weeks! Not quality service!!!

Acrylic coffin nails
Stacy K.

My first visit to serentity per a friend's recommendation. I set up an appointment and saw Loan. She was very good, detail oriented and took her time ensuring that I was happy with my final product. The ambience is amazing, the moment you walk into the salon you get a sense of tranquility. It wasn't too busy and social distancing is no problem. I will definitely be coming back to

Christmas nails pt 2

I have been seeing my nail tech Mimi for the past 10 years, and have him followed him to Serenity which is by far the best salon he's been at. Mimi is so talented and always does a phenomenal job! I cannot recommend Mimi or Serenity more! Seriously - Mimi is such a wonderful nail tech and I'm always receiving compliments on my fun nails thanks to him!

A family member asked what they could get me and I said I'd love a massage. It was my part to do the research and find where I wanted to go. I've done the ultra luxe massages at the Four Seasons and I've also done Massage Envy. It's really the masseuse that makes the difference. I looked for best local massages near me and found Serendipity. Reading through the profiles of the massage therapists I was intrigued by Tonya, mainly for what I interrupted as would be a hard massage experience. My muscles definitely needed a hard touch, not just a relaxing massage. I appreciated the extra attention to the sore spots I noted. The process upon arrival was unclear. It was about 10 minutes after my scheduled appointment time that I made contact with an employee and was immediately helped. I'd return again in the future and recommend Tonya to anyone not afraid of a more pronounced touch to the massage.

That was my 4th surgery for revisions after having a bilateral mastectomy with immediate DIEP flap reconstruction due to breast cancer. When I started going to Carol my torso area was hard a brick! I was behind the 8 ball in a major way with getting my massages done (about 8 months) due to excruciating wide spread joint pain from fibromyalgia. By the time Carol got her hands on my I was twisted & knotted up MESS! Did you catch that...I WAS... Carol is AMAZING!!! I travel about 50 min to get to her & do it happily! She is worth her weight in gold! She is HIGHLY skilled & how she connects with your body using her fingers, hands, forearms & elbows as her guide will blow your mind! We are now working on scar tissue. NO internal fiber can escape Carol's hands!! She is like a medal detector. Once she gets a "hit" & her "radar" goes off, she gets DOWN in those nooks & crannies & will set you FREE!! Before Carol got her hands on me I could not, without joint pain, twist my torso area, lift my arms above my head, bend over or lift my legs. Now...NOW...I can get into yoga poses I could only DREAM of before!!! Oh yeah....she gives homework assignments. Mine was to do yoga. I communicate with her just like I would my Drs. I don't add to anything without first consulting them. I wanted to start Palaties but she advised against it because palaties is designed to strengthen muscles & at the stage I was in at the time, that would as she explained would strengthen the disfunction I was already dealing with which is the exact opposite of what her goal was for me at that time. If you are suffering in any way in your body, PLEASE reach out to Carol. Help IS out there & she CAN help! Your body will THANK YOU!

My sister and I tried a head spa for the first time and were really excited, especially to see the…read morescalp analysis with the camera. We were warmly welcomed, and they brought us to a shared room (not private) for the scalp scan. The actual analysis was SUPER quick, maybe 10 seconds, and they simply told me my scalp was clean. The staff didn't speak English, so even when I tried asking follow-up questions about my scalp condition, I wasn't able to get any clear answers. We booked a 90-minute couple's room, and the service started with a foot massage followed b a surprisingly long shoulder and neck massage. I did't time it, but it was long enough that I started wondering if I had accidentally booked a different treatment--in the best way! It was genuinely relaxing and definitely one of the highlights. The scalp massage and deep cleansing potion was soothing and felt amazing. One thing to be aware of is that the treatment completely relaxed the curl from my perm I've gotten 4 months ago and made my hair noticeably straighter. My sister loved it because it looked like she got a straight perm, but I was honestly shocked when my curls "disappeared." Overall, it was a relaxing and unique experience with some communication challenges and a few surprises. Still, worth trying at least once if you are curious about head spas!
