    I just started getting my nails done here by Vee, and she's awesome! I decided to try a new shape, and she nailed it! She's fast, and great at what she does. I would definitely recommend her!

    Thought I'd give a place closer to home a try ... umm wish I wouldn't have done that. Rude upon arrival. My pedicure was a simple white tip, thinking this would be quick and easy, again, Nope! First if I have to tell you that the tip thickness is to much that's a problem and then when asked yto fix it, and you don't. Now this is what I have (pic included). From there was given to another person for my nails. For a mani gel on my natural nail!! I'm going to say the issues I had could have been avoided had the nail technician been more interested in completing my mani rather than completing her movie on her phone. I'm trying to tell me I was all set only to look down and have paint on my fingers looking like a 5 year old... I'll be generous and say 9 year old have painted my nails waiting to see if she was going to address it but in turn I had to ask to get the polish that surrounded the outer nail (cuticle part) removed and cleaned up. She did about two fingers and I gave up. Sucks right before heading out of town. I don't normally do negative reviews and I went in with great hopes I'd found a new place closer to home but I want to save the next person with the same idea.

    Splendid Nail Salon was absolutely anything but. I have never had such a painful manicure in my life. In order to get my previous gel off, they barely put a drop of solution, so naturally it was still on pretty well. So, they do what any rational people would think to do and use a really rough emory board to sand it off, in doing so rubbing the skin around my fingers so raw that three of my fingers got cuts and bled. They proceeded to put rubbing alcohol on my open wounds multiple times each. Additionally, they kept using all of their tools while there was blood, including things that are hard to sanitize like emory boards, buffers and touching the tips of bottles of cuticle oil to it. Now, I know that I personally don't have any blood borne illnesses, but the nail tech certainly did not. Major health concern that my blood is now present on quite a few things at the salon. I have a weird bump on one of my fingers, and the tech was really confused by it, kept commenting on it and literally took out her phone to take a picture of it, which I don't find super appropriate. Aside from the light torture and unrequested photo shoot, the manicure itself wasn't good. The primary reason I go to nail salons is that I know I am not good at painting within the lines. So I go pay someone with the assumption that they can paint in the lines. However, that is not the case, and I have random bits of polish on my fingers rather than on the nails. One nail got a bit of cotton on it that she kept painting over, so there's a weird bump on that nail. One nail has a bit of missing polish. And most of the nail tips ended up jagged and so after taking the attached photos I needed to fix them myself. She did ask if it was good after and I said sure because I just wanted to get OUT. Plus side, it was cheap. But I would have paid to NOT have to sit there through it.

    FYI: mildly infected toe pic attached. A friend goes here for pedicures so I went to try it. The place was very clean, and everyone was nice. However, my male technician was doing some cuticle work on my big toe after the initial soaking. I felt a sharp pain and flinched and told him that that hurt. He quickly continued what he was doing which turned out to be skinning my big toe next to the cuticle. I don't know if he thought he was removing cuticle, but I told him it hurt, he continued doing it and now I have a mild infection on my big toe that I've been dealing with for a week. Luckily he did not do the same thing to my other foot. I wish I could recommend this place because I did like everything else about it, but (at least) my technician was not skilled, did not know what he was doing, and now my toe is infected.

    Update: Asked for cool, sparkly holiday nails and I got them! Skilled techs for sure. Suggestion for you- if you have a picture from Pinterest or the internet, show it to them. They can make that design happen! ********************** Good place. I get a normal mani/pedi. Price is right and the techs are skilled. I usually get told that gel nails are better by the staff, but that's not my thing. Also, I usually like to bring my own nail polish. That way, I know the quality of the product. The one time I used their OPI color, it chipped off a little too soon for me.

    Right after they're done! Too short and crooked! Gel but it's not even shinny!

    After a negative experience at another nearby nail spa, I gave the Desert Nail Spa a try today for…read morethe first time, and I was very delighted with my overall experience. From the ease of scheduling to the experience itself and the service, everything was top notch. I was impressed by how large the spa was and how many people could get a service at the same time. I have a feeling this is my new go-to place when I need a pedicure in the future. I only was planning on a Basic Pedicure service today, which included nail and cuticle care, massage, hot stone and towel, and polish (though I did not need the polish). There was an add-on for exfoliation scrub or callus care if I wanted either, and also an extra cost for gel polish. The Desert Pedicure includes both the exfoliation scrub and callus care in addition to the basic pedicure. The Desert Deluxe Pedicure includes the Desert Pedicure plus rejuvenating cooling masque and extended massage. The DNS Ultimate Pedicure includes the Desert Deluxe Pedicure plus refreshed & revitalized (infused with organic virgin olive oil deeply hydrate and soothe skin), detoxifying sea salt soak, callus remover gel, exfoliating sugar scrub, nourishing gel masque, hydrate cucumber treatment, and silky butter cream. For today, I stuck with the basic pedicure though I may try an add-on in the future. When I sat down in a chair to soak my feet, I was offered a still or sparkling water. There was a nice ambiance with soothing music, and I was sitting in a massage chair. There were fun nail or nail polish related quotes on the wall. My nail tech checked on how I was doing throughout. There were 14 people being worked on at a time, which was impressive, yet there were many empty chairs, so they could work on a lot more. I saw them put up special pillows for kids who were getting nail work done. I appreciated afterwards when I was paying that they had a 10% off promotion when paying with cash. The Desert Nail Spa has two nearby locations: Kierland (Greenway) and Tatum. hey are open on weekdays from 10 AM to 7 PM, Saturday from 9:30 AM to 5 PM, and Sunday from 11 AM to 5 PM. They first opened in Tempe in 1998 and have expanded to other locations across the valley. They strive to integrate innovation into the nail salon industry. You can learn more about them at https://desertnailspa.com including their story, their services, their locations, and their gallery. There is also an online booking system where you can request specific nail technicians or a specific gender of a nail tech and make an appointment in advance. The price of services is also listed. Desert Nail Spa considers itself the "Best Nail Salon" in Phoenix. Based on my experience today, I would certainly agree!

I received really great service! Everyone was so sweet in the shop. It was a cozy and modern looking nail spa inside. My nails and pedicure turned out awesome, and after tip I spent $100.

    Have you ever gone to a Chinese restaurant and asked to order a dish made slightly different than…read morethe way the restaurant offers it, only to hear they can't make any exceptions to their rules? That is an example of Tiffany nails customer service policies in a nutshell. Just as background, let me mention that I have been coming to this location for years before the new owners acquired the business, so I was happy with the service I received in the past. I also used to go regularly for their top of line "Deluxe Pedicure" and manicure with the new owners. Then last month, I was made aware of my unimportance as a customer. Apparently, it doesn't matter how many extra services you order from their menu, their main concern is the amount of time they spends on a pedicure -- no more than one hour, whether you're paying for the basic pedicure requiring fewer steps, or the deluxe pedicure requiring several more services-- it really doesn't matter. All Pedicures are one hour. That's because their priority is not the customer's experience. The rule in their head is "a pedicure is no more than one hour long, and that's what's most important to Tiffany Nails. And their "customer last" policy also extends to your time. Even if you make an appointment, they are almost always at least 15 to 20 minutes late, and it has been several times that I've had to come back at another time altogether for their convenience. That does not fly when you have several other commitments! Sometimes it's just not worth the effort to be a regular customer in a place where you're not appreciated. So after nearly 20 years of going to Tiffany nails, they just permanently lost a good client. There are plenty of other businesses that truly appreciate your patronage.
