I actually like this place. Been getting my nails done professionally since I was 12 now 32 and I'm very picky. This is the first time in a long time, that I went to a new shop and was pleased. No complaints, I didn't have to even talk stuff in my head cause they missed a step. Lol Great place to go to get fly, they do nails right! read more

I should have know better when I walked in I should have turned around and walked right back out and gone to my regular salon. The on one 32nd and thunderbird it's family owned only 5 people work there I went in on a Friday after work.. I was rushed thru a much needed pedicure which I paid extra for the whole package then I sat for a basic gel manicure for 1hr... While they multitasked thru 4 other people what should have Been maybe an hour took 2 I left feeling exhausted and frustrated my toes had polish all over the place I could have painted them better myself my nails had gel dried all over it and I can see paint on my cuticles which means they will lift in the next few days.. Do yourself a favor go else where there is much better salons that are even cheaper and faster!! No one should have to sit for 2hrs for a basic gel manicure.. I wish it worked out being so close to home but never going back Also the place was filthy the tools they use you know they don't sanitize right.. I pray I don't get an infection! read more

I have to write this review to warn people. I went to get my toe nails done at Splendind Nails on Thunderbird in Phoenix, 85032. The male technician was rough around the cuticles and he used a foot polisher that looked used. My left big toe was sore afterwards. Two days later, my toe swelled up and was super tender. I went to the doctor, it was infected and I was put on antibiotics for 10 days. My nail turned blue. Four weeks later, my nail is falliing off. Beware of poor sanitation practices over there and or anywhere. read more

I unfortunately did not enjoy my experience here. I was greeted by a few Asian men, one assisting 2 girls, and one watching tv. They told me to sit at the nail station and I would be helped shortly. A little Asian girl came out from the back and asked me very few questions before getting started. She went to put the nail on to start my acrylics, and she dropped a couple on the floor and attempted to put them on my nails. Then she didn't use enough glue, and the nails kept falling off before she was able to shorten all of them. There were a few other Asian employees there who were all talking in their native language, and completely ignored me. One of the men said sorry, that they were telling jokes. I was not happy with the cleanliness, professionalism, or their manner. read more

I have been in here quite few times... I guess I'm a glutton for punishment and like to toss my money down the drain. The gentleman who did my manicures caused my cuticles to fray and bleed. He also painted my nails so poorly, gel and regular, that it lasted way less than the expected amount of time. When I get pedicures, I always pay for the calus removal and he really never puts any effort into it. It is unfortunate as they are conveniently located when I have the time to go get these services. Somehow every time I have come in I had always gotten the same person (I can not remember his name). So finally the last time I went in I requested the nice lady who was on staff who did a much better job. For that reason I am leaving 3 stars instead of 1. read more

Went and got my nails done today by Stacy , great experience great quality. Very friendly , they were not busy so I got right in. Complete gel set on about a hour , found my new nail salon read more

This is the best palce for nails and pedicures. I've been going here for 10 years and I love it. There shop use to be down the street from my house and then they moved up north and I followed them (which was a 45min drive) but well worth it. Young always does my nails and he always remembers exactly hows I like it so I don't have to tell him when I want them shorter. I am very picky about my nails and I've tried to other little shops by my house but they only end up lifting or breaking. Not to mention my acrylic fills last alot longer when I get them done here. Plus people always compliment me on my nails wherever I go, even when they are three weeks in. So even if you don't live in Paradise Valley it is worth the trip to get your nails and a pedicure done. Plus the prices are reasonable. I have to say I moved to California and I've already tried 5 different places and none of them compare to Splendid Nails. I miss you guys. read more

Been going here about a year now, off and on and they do a pretty good job. They always offer water and free wifi and never try to push you into getting something you don't want. They definitely need to update their color selection a bit in regular and gel polish selections. Otherwise, they are very polite and have a nice shop. read more

Family owned. Walk ins or appointments. This is guaranteed the best place to get your nails..not nail...done! You can also get waxed. The people that work here engage in talk with you and are really nice. The owner Nhan is a funny sarcastic guy. Any person who gets their nails done by him is in for a laugh. This is a high end nail salon. Cleanliness is the key to keeping this place working. All machines are cleaned after use. read more

Not sure I would even give this place a 1 star. I visited the one in paradise valley mall. The girl wouldn't talk to you other then tell you to move your feet. It's the worse pedicure I have ever had!!! She cut my cuticle, grated of to much skin causing it to bleed on both feet. The bottom of my feet are raw and it looks like my 7 year old niece painted them. When I called back to let the owner know they had cut and made me bleed all I got was oh sorry. I will never be going back here! Horrible pedicure! read more

So, I felt the need to add my reviews to this nail salon on here. I have been here a total of three times. All three were bad experiences. I have found another nail salon just down the road that I absolutely love. I will recap all my experiences. 1. The very first time I went there, I walked in and they asked what I wanted. I told them I would like a gel manicure. They told me to sit and wait, but it would be just a few minutes. About 10 minutes later, a lady walked in asking for a full set. They asked if she had an appointment, she said she didn't. She sat for maybe 5 minutes, and someone came over and got her to start her manicure. I, however, continued to sit and not be helped or spoken to. Finally, the owner started speaking in their native language to someone and pointed at me. Eventually, they did get around to me. But I was very annoyed at the whole situation. 2. I went in by myself for my birthday present to get a pedicure. It was a very young guy who speaks perfect English. He got annoyed when I asked for the deluxe pedicure instead of the regular one he suggested. He got even more annoyed when I asked for a french pedicure. He was very rough with my feet. I told him not to cut my big toenail because it gets ingrown if cut not just right. Well, he cut it and it got ingrown and hurt me for 3 weeks before it grew out again. In making small talk, he told me he was just divorced and had a 6 month old little boy. As I was walking out, I heard him telling the next person that he had a 3 month old little girl. I mean, it's not a big deal.. but just knowing he lied to me is awful. 3. I went back a week later for a gel manicure. Unfortunately I had the same guy as my previous experience. He cut two of my cuticles and made them bleed and hurt for a long time. No apologies. I was watching the tv behind him and he was massaging lotion into my hand. I noticed him staring at me. Normally when someone realizes you're staring at them, they look away or say something. He stared at me for a good 30 seconds before I said, "What?" and he finally looked away. It was just a very uncomfortable experience. In the end, it forced me to find a new nail salon. I will not return here, and I don't think anyone else should either. read more

Love it here!!! Stacey always does a phenomenal job!! I refuse to go to anyone else. He's the best!!! read more

See all

I used to come here all the time. Stacy was my tech. He left and they replaced him with some guy who rushes and doesn't know any artwork. So I left. Last week I came back and Ann did my nails. She is very nice. I came back for a repair and decided to get a pedicure and got the new guy. He rushed my pedicure, didn't do the scrub, or the massage and my feet were in the water a total of a minute. Just lazy... read more

Friendly people, offer water, clean place. Actually one of the best nail salons I have been to. Will go back for sure. I like my pedicure, manicures read more

Seems as if my February 2015 review was removed?? If so, I'm reposting. MY FIRST AND LAST TRIP TO THIS DIRTY PLACE!!! I wanted to treat my daughter to a mani pedi last Sunday, the 22nd. I didn't need a manicure and wanted only a polish change and a pedi. While sitting up front waiting a middle aged woman nail tech greeted me by interrogating me over the polish on my fingers nails. I told her it was regular polish not a gel. She either didn't understand me or she didn't believe me and kept trying to scrape up my nail polish with her finger nails! It was not comfortable at all, her grip and scrapping of my finger nail was so odd to me. SHE WAS VERY UNWELCOMING AND ABRUPT!! There was nothing relaxing about this place. She rushed through everything!! She filed more of my skin than my toe nail. I stopped her more than once to let her know. She didn't seem to care. Never spoke to me, but had a lot to say in her native language to her co-worker male next to her who was doing my daughters nails. Best that way, I couldn't understand her anyway. The next day my finger nail polish has begun to chip off!! My nails look terrible!! They looked better before I even walked into their shop!! I have tried calling for two days now to contact the manager at this place. Nobody seems to know who he is or when he will be in!! Or they just hang up on me because they don't understand what I'm asking. I definitely felt overcharged for what we received!!! WILL NEVER GO THERE AGAIN!! If I could figure out how to add a pic here of my nails, I will be doing so! read more

Splendid by VQ - Terrible! Regular polish, starting chipping off the next day!! - Nail Salons Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

My best friend and I stopped in here for pedicures a few weeks ago. We had a short wait, maybe 10 minutes, but then we had a great experience. She had hers done by the guy (owner, I think), and I had an older woman (his wife, maybe). Both of us were very satisfied with the cleanliness and friendliness of the staff. It was only $25 and that included the extra callus treatment, a must for AZ people who wear sandals/flip flops a lot! I will definitely be back soon1 read more

Unsanitary, Awkward, terrible experience. I came here in the middle of the week and called as I was on my way there and they said no wait. Once I get there, the pedicure guy sits me down and starts doing a half cocked job on toes, as in bearly filing and ect.... I notice, all of the tools he is using are dirty and just sitting in a box. So not sanitary at all... He became obsessed with my toes, saying that I had ingrown toe nails, when I clearly didn't or I would know.... those hurt. Even though I told him no to the fact that I didn't have any, he still proceeds to hack at my toes, causing one toe to start bleeding A LOT, and then one toe on the other foot starts bleeding. While I am getting stabbed on my toes, a lady walks in and wants a manicure. Nothing wrong with that... well all of a sudden all of the workers start completely arguing and move the other customer to 2 different ladies. The owner says to the other customer(only other customer there) "Can you go to another station, you didn't call ahead and she did" (pointing to me)..... I felt so awkward as all of them were talking in Vietnamese basically arguing. Once I get to the nail tech, I believe it was "Ann" everything went a little smoother, but it was still a very uncomfortable and awkward atmosphere. I will not go back or refer anyone there. read more

This the absolute worst nail salon I have ever been too. They do not listen to what you want. We had an appointment for four nails and pedicures. They would take their walk in people and push the appointment out. Very rude staff will never ever go back. Very filthy through out . read more

The only place I go for manicures/pedicures. I am very happy with the cleanliness and all the technicians I've had were very good. I always leave relaxed and glad I went. read more

Every time I have my appointment I am amazed at the high quality and super friendly service. I love Vy and Sam. It is a real spa experience. You are not rushed and truly relax and exjoy your experience. Tammy P read more

I was here today, in the Paradise valley one. And I wasn't happy with the manicure or pedicure. The pedicure was done within 15 mins. There was no massaging of the feet whatsoever. Nothing extra was done that I can't do myself at home really! And I am not even trained in these stuff. The guy had really long nails and hurt me around 4-5 times with them. Again the manicure wasn't clean. I did French manicure. The products being used seem not of good quality. Even after drying for 30 mins the color of my toes came off when I tried wearing my pumps. I have done French nails myself at home and the results are similar to what I got today. Didn't feel like any professional was doing it. I paid $40 but I feel like I got only $20 worth of service. I have to re paint my toe nails at home and the French nails I am not sure they look dirty at the corners.. That makes me feel weird.. I may take them off too!! :( :( read more

I have gone into this nail shop and my experience was not so great nor were my nails. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and chalked it up to one bad day. I sent my two teenage daughters and their friend twice and the staff both times were extremely rude yo them and did a horrible job on their nails. I went in to speak with the manager to find out she was one of the nail technicians that worked on my daughter. I will not spend another penny on awful service! read more

I've been going for a couple of years now, and highly recommend them. I was referred to Splendid Nails by a friend who had been going there for over 10 years. The staff is friendly and does a great job. This location at 32nd St. and Thunderbird is perfect for me, it's clean, relaxing and I really like how V does my nails. She's amazing!! read more

I have been going here for about 8 years, won't go anywhere else! Best customer service nails by young & toes by Sam! Although I love all of the employees there those are my favorite! I highly recommend coming in! All the other reviews of course people posted when angry, no one goes on and posts comments when there satisfied! Love this place !!! read more

I am pretty hard to impress. Ive gone here for three years and have never had a nail break. Trust me ladies.. My nails are long and I have a 4 year old. Prices are reasonable and all my friends are hooked. :) Thanks for making me a raving fan! read more

I am wanting to tell everybody in Az., that Splendid nails is the BEST place to go to have your nails done. Awesome people, Friendly, polite.....the most talented people I have ever been to. Don't waste your time with other nail salons. They do the best nails, and they last so long. Yong owns the place....very nice, but I went in and he was busy, so I went to Paul. My Mom had her nails done by his wife Michelle. My Mom is 91 years old...kind of a crabby old woman, but Michelle actually made her laugh...which is a miracle, plus, she was very happy. I think I have been going to them for seven years or more. Nobody can compare to them. I have now been forced to move to Yuma ,Az. because of my Husbands job. I have tried 5 nail salons...Nobody can even compare to Splendid nails. I would vote them the best nail Salon in the State of Az. They do evrything perfect. from acylic nails , pedicures, nail art. Please believe me on this...every person that works there are total perfectionists. I miss them . Connie from Yuma, az read more
