They did a good job on my feet but the washroom was really dirty. There were dirty towels, what looked like black mold on the base boards, and thick dirt on the top of the floor boards. I can't decide wether or not to go back. read more

This place is near my home, so I have become a regular customer for pedicures. Helen, who seems to be the proprietor, speaks English and is very friendly and conversational. This review is an update on my previous one that was negative due my first visit during Helen's absence, when no one that spoke English was on duty. Good service but cash only. read more

Best service ever! Super friendly and genuine people. Would recommend this place highly for anyone looking to get their nails done. Decent prices not over priced. Had such a beautiful nice lady doing my nails and had great conversations! Would come here again for sure :) read more

Friends, Spirit Nails is my tried and true go-to mani/pedi salon. I highly recommend that you see Helen the owner and the talented Lee for your nail needs. I've been going to Spirit for the past two years and their services have been consistently top-notch. For the decades that I've been getting mani pedis, I've never been treated with such care. Not once have I been nicked, rushed or felt that they were distracted. Helen is bubbly, kind and engaging; Lee is so sweet and patient. Both make me feel special and pampered every time. On top of the high quality of their work, the prices are excellent, too! I love my powder manis--try one if you haven't before because they've actually improved the quality of my nails. Gone are the days when I try a different salon nearly every time because the last one missed the mark--so lovely to know where to go without reservation! read more

Great service and professional, but communications problems unless Helen is there. You cannot get here from any other direction than northbound Aurora Ave. North, past 185th street, then go about 1/4 mile and turn into the driveway by the plaza there. Usually there is no wait. Be very specific with what you want and get them to tell the price up front so there are no surprise charges. read more

My daughter and I can here to be pedicures. We got the best pedicures. We added 10 minute foot massages and we were in heaven. This is the best way to pamper yourself especially during covid. Super clean and good prices. read more

I had been to this salon one time before, and my nails were alright. Nothing I would of bragged about. The reason I am writing this review and gave them 4 out of 5 stars is because a few weeks ago after a disaster at a different nail salon, I went to Spirit Nails to have them fix my nails. They were incredibly nice and got me right in. They listened to exactly how I wanted them to fix the nails. They paid very close attention to what I was asking. They were able to fix them exactly how I wanted them to. Not only that, but only charged me ten bucks to fix them. I was super grateful. To me, the fact that the lady paid so close attention to what I wanted, that alone is enough reason for me to want to go back. Also, another lady that was there getting her nails done seemed to be extremely pleased with the service she received and had only good things to say about the salon. read more

I got dip nails. Helen did a stellar job on making the surface of the dip as smooth as possible, especially at the transition between my real nails and the false ones. She has an eye for details so she took her time, leaving the edges of my nails so clean. Highly recommended! read more

I just moved to the Shoreline area, and came in for a fill & left with a beautiful new full set! Enjoyed great conversation with the owner, and was VERY impressed with her attention to the detail of my nails. I am a notoriously picky customer, and she was very attentive and didn't make me feel bad about being so particular. So stoked to find my new favorite salon! read more

Went in to get a pedicure and my eyebrows waxed. The pedicure was definitely what I paid for, they don't follow directions well and they were not gentle even though I told them my feet were sensitive. But the reason why I left one star was when they were done waxing my brows (after telling the lady to fix them again) she left the hot wax on high heat for to long and BURNED and scarred up the too of my eyelid!!! I wouldn't go back in there if it never meant I was getting my eyebrows waxed again!!! Worst place on earth. read more

Spirit Nails - Chipped gel? - Nail Salons Near Me - Shoreline, Washington

Spirit Nails is the best place in Seattle to get your nails done. I don't go to have my legs massaged or hear harp music. I get a great pedicure or manicure for a great price from awesome people. I've been going for ten years. Yes, it was different when Sandy owned it. Yes, the prices are a little higher. They've needed to raise their prices for years. Still super cheap. Still great service. They go above & beyond all the time. You're always going to see people have a bad experience & something to complain about anywhere you go. But I can honestly say I have not had a bad one in ten years of once a month visits. I bring my friends. Highly recommend. And no. I've never seen them not clean and disinfect everything. These women work like crazy for a very inexpensive pedicure. It's a great deal! read more

Took two hours to get a gel manicure. Helen put five coats of gel because "the bottom coat wasn't drying." My nails look clumpy and not smooth. Messy work. Overall, not the best experience. My friend waited an hour while the other nail technician was eating and cleaning and then attended her. read more

came in with existing gel polish that i asked to be soaked off over the phone.. well the gal just peeled off all the gel and i wish i would have stopped her and left because i left with weak bendy nails covered in questionable gel that they had issues with but didn't explain anything to me. not only has the gel chipped off within days but 4 of my nails have have broke due to them being damaged.. i was maintaining moderate length for quite some time.. oh also she specifically asked if i wanted the shape changed and i said no, she then proceeds to change the shape completely and make a couple of them crooked? very odd experience. do not recommend. read more

The lady who did my nails was super nice, she made my nails perfectly pointy, even offered me a manicure (but I declined due to a time crunch I was on) while she worked on them and we talked. They also turned out super nice and I'm in love strong and sturdy too! read more

While nail salons make a cottage industry out of having slightly cringeworthy names (Nails and Joy--which was barely the former and definitely not the latter; Klassy Nails, Foxy Nails, Cute Nails, Savvy Nail Salon, Shadow Nails and Savor Nails being a few of my favorites) Spirit Nails is somehow even a little weirder and funnier. That said, I got a very meticulous and thorough pedicure here; the woman who attended to me really went to town on my leathery runner's feet and just went all cheese grater on that action. Which is fine because I really do not think I have any nerve endings on the soles of my feet due to a childhood enthusiasm for shoelessness (when I was 9 or 10, I even stepped on an upholstery tack once, embedding it in the ball of my foot, and did not notice it until my evening bath). So, you know. While I do my best to keep the rhinoceros-like outer layer of my feet flayed and smoothed and lotioned into submission, any foot fetishists out there will want to just keep moving...I can offer you no consolation, foot fetishists. They did not offer those cheapie complementary flip-flops when I clearly needed them, and the space is small, so if chicks are doing acrylics you're in for some strong, probably lethal, odors while you're in the chair. But I'll be back for the great job and the more than fair price. read more

If you're looking for a solid, long lasting pedicure, this is your place. If you're looking for a spacious, posh salon clad with brand-new leg massaging leather chairs, then Spirit Nails won't be your cup of tea. Sometimes the employees pretend they can't understand you if they don't feel like doing something you ask, and I KNOW they talk shit if you call them on it. However, what they're saying to each other is not in English so what they're actually saying is always a mystery. There are only like 4 employees so you get to know each well. This place is always busy and sometimes they can take forever. But here's the deal breaker. This is by far the longest lasting pedicure in the area. there are only two beat up massage chairs for pedi's and only two stations for nails, but for the price ($30 for a french mani and pedi), and the lasting paint jobs, this place wins out every time. read more

A $15 spa pedicure. Are you kidding? Agreed that this is not the posh spa experience, but it was still pleasant and the people are kind and welcoming. I will go back because it's so affordable. read more

Cure for the Monday blues--a manicure and pedicure with a massage chair in a small, quiet salon that's not so busy first thing in the morning. Very happy with my first-time visit! read more

I've long been looking for a place that rivaled my fave spot in Bellingham, and of course I found it way out in Shoreline - at Spirit Nails. No frills is the name of the game. It's clean, pleasant, friendly, and affordable, but not a "high class" spa by any means. The manicures and pedicures are a killer value (I think it was $30-35 for both) because they're great quality and inexpensive compared to most other places. It's worth the drive, especially if you can do other errands in the area. read more

Helen is so nice and she did a great job on my nails! She was quick and had lots of nail art designs to choose from.

This is my first yelp review because I feel so strongly about it. Long story short, after an hour and a half (I had made an appt for mani/pedi) not getting the manicure I had asked for, having to redo my pedicure when I got home, over charging me for the service and charging me for a tip when I had told them I was not happy and I would not be leaving a tip. Terrible service, I will not be returning. read more

They always do such a great job with pedicure and manicures. My fav place to go. I am oretty sure i have had eaxh employee at least once and all have done a freat and thorough job. Always friendly and accomodating. Lee and Helen are my favorite for pedicure. read more

I called needing to get in because I have been moving the past few weeks across the country and started a new job. My nails were growing out badly. I asked if they could get me in at 5 but they couldn't get to me until 6. So I asked if I could come in early to start soaking. The lady was very rude and said no, you can't come until 6 because the girl doing it was doing a full set at 5! 1) It was just a question and only required a courteous answer! 2) It's business that they obviously don't need! No one has to do anything for anyone when they are soaking! I will take my business elsewhere! Good nail salons are a dime a dozen! First impressions say it all! read more

This place is just ok. It's my second time here and there are a few red flags, no plastic liners, and some of their tools are questionable. I didn't feel the love and I won't be back. read more

I'm so surprised by the poor reviews below. I've come to this place now 3 times and the only drawback is the fact that Helen and Lee need more technicians so they can actually take a lunch break. These ladies literally work 7 days a week. My nails have always been perfectly on point with zero smudges or flaw's, Helen continuously asks for feedback stating if I don't like it she will fix it. I'm glad that this place is filtering out the asshole clients, these are a couple of the most tenderhearted ladies I've ever met, if they have 2 seconds to take a break and eat something they're offering it away to share. Also, if you're trying to make an appointment at any nail salon that accepts walk in then YOU are a moron for getting upset that your appointment is delayed, learn your lesson and walk in when you have the time. For potential newbie's reading this review, give it try. Be patient as they only have 3 pedi chairs and 2 technicians at the moment, it's worth the wait! read more

Best pedicure I've had in a long time. Hole in the wall place for sure but ladies are sweet and my feet feel and look great!

Came here in desperate need of a pedi but low on cash. For $15, not bad at all. The place is no frills, no ambiance whatsoever but the service was great. If you need nails done el cheapo and don't mind the surroundings, this place is a bargain. read more

i went to this spa for many many years when Sandy owned it. I went twice since it was bought out.... and got fungus. I will not go back. I unfortunately assumed that the same degree of cleanliness that Sandy had would carry over... NOT TRUE. read more

Always have a good experience here, probably the cheapest place you will find in town. $10 for a manicure and $15 for a pedicure. It's under new management now and they off more services. Been going to this place since I was 12. The women are very sweet and the prices are underpriced but can't complain there! read more

Came here today for my regular manicure and pedicure. I have been coming here for fifteen years. I liked the salon when Sandy owned it. When Helen came, the salon was modernized. Helen invested in a much wider variety of nail polishes, Shellac and SNS dip nails. She upgraded the equipment and chairs and offered longer hours, Sunday appointments and waxing. I really look forward to seeing both Helen and Lee. Lee has treated me like a treasured friend for all these years. She takes special care in my pedicure and is so careful with the details. She gives a excellent leg massage. I prefer shellac nails and Helen does an excellent job. My nail polish lasts for a long time, which is great because I am quite hard on my nails. The price is very reasonable for the services I receive; I used to go to Gene Juarez and pay three times as much. The service is better at Spirit Nails and the polish here lasts longer. The salon is basic, but the warmth and care of these two shines through. read more

I highly recommend Spirit Nails. They give a great, long-lasting pedicure for a very reasonable price (under $20). The women who work there are always nice and helpful. As others have mentioned, this isn't a fancy nail salon. The decor and pedicure chairs are basic, but if you'd like to save money rather than pay for decor, this is the place for you. read more

I have come to Spirit Nails for more than 5 years. Additionally, I have 4 daughter's who I have brought to this salon for the same time span. Services we have received are everywhere from acrylics, waxing and pedicures. In the past 18 months I have brought two entire bridal parties to get their nails and toes done. This was all under the ownership of Sandy. Last week I found out there was a new owner Helen. Today I had two of my daughters go to get their nails (both new sets) done for my wedding TOMORROW. Helen failed miserably and uncharged outrageously. No designs, no extras, regular paint and NOT shellac. $38. Then she asked my one daughter if she needed change. By the time I picked up daughter number 1, her nails were already screwed up because Helen sent her out of the store with wet nails. I go immediately to the salon, daughter 2 has no idea what is even going on with her nails. Helen gave her the exact shape of daughter number one and very long (without asking, and uncharging for the length- that wasn't requested). Again, she was going to use regular paint. For a wedding. For weddings, every nail tech knows shellac due to the importance of durability. When I tried to speak to Helen about my concerns, she immediately started shouting at me and blaming my daughters. I absolutely told her she was taking advantage of my kids- teenagers. Shame on her. This experience has taught me that Helen lacks the ability to have any tact with customers, cannot handle any type of criticism regarding services and overcharges as if she was running a full service spa in downtiwn. The ONLY saving grace is that Helen's daughter was able to translate and a very sweet girl. read more

They cut me while doing my acrylics. The nail polish mixed on my nail and the filing isn't smooth. They also charged up, when I asked them how much they said $35, then when I went to pay they asked for $40. Not going back ... read more

Yay! The new owner at this salon, Helen, was my favoriate nail tech at another salon so i was delighted to find her! She has always been courteous and kind, willing to go the extra mile for her clients and talks to me in English which I appreciate. Her daughter Zenna did a delightful job for me last week and speaks fluent English. I love supporting this caring, small family business. read more

I have been going to Spirit nails for many years, when Sandy was the owner all was good. Now, I have the same gal do my pedicure but, it is just not the same. The last two times when I left, after sitting there for quite awhile, my big toe nail polished smeared and looked a mess! I do not know what they are doing differently but, after recently reading an article about sanitary conditions and the ramifications of the opposite, I think I am going to look around for a new place. This makes me sad because we all use to have a great time kind of like a family when Sandy owned it. They have also raised the prices, which I would not mind if the atmosphere and overall cleanliness was better. I would figure, a new owner could use a rag, bucket and some cleaner on the place. I still love Lee!! read more
