    I love coming here! Spruce is one of the best nail salons I've ever been to. It's so clean, welcoming, and has good vibes all around. Mariah does an amazing jobs on my nails every time

    This place has everything! Super clean. Friendly and talented staff. And fun! But the prices..... oh the prices! I love having my nails done, but it's impossible to come here every 2 weeks when a tier 1 gel manicure is $60 + tip. It's just not for me, but it might be for you if that's something you're willing to pay.

    The shop is very cute and aesthetically appealing. My technician was very nice too. I felt very safe with all the COVID precautions. I got the Goods Manicure with Gel. The hot stone and scrub was so relaxing! I got my nails done on Friday though and the following Thursday it's already peeling :( For $60, I would have expected it to stay a little longer.

    Picked this nail salon because I had some errands to do around Findlay market (and the photos of the place looked cute) and I'm so glad I came here! Not only is it a super cute salon with good music, plants, an instagrammable neon sign and brick walls, but they foster a safe space which I love and immediately makes you feel comfortable. My nails came out fantastic even though I felt risky doing white at a new salon (sometimes it needs ten coats or doesn't cure as well as other colors). The polish was bold on the very first coat and my technician Alix was so friendly and a pro- she did a quick yet flawless job. I'm excited to go back and try the gel extension and builder gel which are healthier nail alternatives to acrylics (they actually help grow and strengthen your natural nails!) And come to find out they have a whole menu of skin services too, so a high frequency facial is also in store for the future.

    Spruce is not your typical nail salon and you will instantly feel the difference when you walk in. It's untraditional and has its own unique style. The staff was friendly, everything was clean, and my nails look great! The downside is that you usually have to book well in advance or get lucky with a cancellation. The prices are a little higher than your typical nail salon but nothing crazy. I loved that it didn't feel rushed and I was able to relax a little. Would love to see a Covington or Newport location!

    If you are thinking of going this place, run as fast as you can. I booked an appointment on a Wednesday around 6:00pm for the upcoming Saturday at 2:30pm. I was sent a simple appointment conformation email and that was that. (See photo below) Saturday, around 11:00am I was sent a last minute email reminding me of "outstanding forms I needed to fill out" This was the first "reminder" email I had been sent since the appointment was set. Upon looking at this 'form' I noticed this "nail salon" was unable to remove any form of sns, acrylics, etc. and would have to have it done by another salon prior to the appointment and if I showed up with anything on they would charge my card and turn me away. I was stunned at this last minute form and confused because I had never heard of a salon not being able to provide this service. I called the salon immediately and the representative confirmed they could not do any removals and would charge my card for cancelling as I did not have enough time to stop at another salon before my appointment. I asked if I made another appointment could this fee be waived due to the form being sent to me last minute. She said no, and that is their policy and her floor manager was busy and could not speak to me. I asked her to hold while I looked at this information that was supposedly sent to me in the confirmation email. I was frustrated to see at the bottom, hidden under what is seems to be normal confirmation email, had extras not at all highlighted or in caps saying they were unable to provide any of these services and would charge you and turn you away. (See photo below) (What is this, a medication company hiding all the bad symptoms that may come about?!) WHAT A SCAM. I told the representative I was extremely frustrated and to let the owner know I would be leaving bad reviews, did not appreciate my experience, and could not believe a NAIL SALON could not provide a NAIL service. Now onto the owner responding to my reviews :) Hi Molly, To start, I checked your website, and the only place your "policies" are listed are under cancellations. Nor, is this listed anywhere if you are simply booking online (see photos below) If I am simply looking to book an appointment with you and go about my day, there is NOTHING in caps, highlighted, a box to check, ANYTHING to say HEY! We can not provide a service that EVERY OTHER nail salon can! Yet you can hide it under a seemingly normal confirmation email stating if someone shows up you will turn them away and charge them??? That is something I simply can't understand. Next, I was never rude to your coordinator. I absolutely stated I would leave bad reviews, was extremely frustrated you would be attempting to charge my card, and experienced pathetic customer service experience. You also tried to use an analogy stating not all hair salons do hair extensions. I completely understand this, however, what I can not understand is how a salon that markets themselves as having skilled techs do amazing designs, can not do removals. A better analogy, is if I went to a salon, got my hair colored, and they said they couldn't dry it because they don't use blow dryers. I mean cmon girl. I had every desire to have a manicure down at your salon, however, I did not expect to not be able to have a simple removal service done beforehand as any other nail provider in the tri-state area can do. To state I am trying to destroying your business is quite far-fetched to say and unprofessional. I had an awful experience, and want everyone to know of these hidden policies and never have to experience this themselves. I also want the management and owner know the extreme disappointment and implement items in order for this to not happen to others. That my dear, is called criticism. Thank you for posting a response to places I was unable to defend myself and allowing me the time to structure a far better review. Wishing you the day you deserve

    Absolutely awful. It looks like a 5 year old did my nails and on top of that way over priced. Everyone was very friendly and clean atmosphere but terrible terrible job. I just want to cry walking around with my nails like this. Sat there and wasted so much time and now have to go somewhere else to pay to get them re done

    great staff relaxing décor clean, quiet, friendly

    Broken glass nail art, thank you Mollie & Spruce team

    Spruce is the only natural nail Salon in Ohio. Molly the owner has opened a welcome refuge for you to come in relax, take a break from your hectic schedule and have her team take care of you. I've now visited a few times for pedicures and my most recent visit I treated myself to a manicure and pedicure. On my manicure I allowed Mollie nail tech use her artistic artistry and create a special broken glass style nail art, loved her being an artist on my nails. I had a picture from a magazine which inspired me for a special company dinner. Mollie used her artistry and knocked the manicure out of the park, in the past two weeks I've never had so many compliments on my nails ever. Spruce is now my place for healthy, natural nail care - don't miss Spruce and their friendly team in OTR! Plus they've introduced a new Sugaring, natural hair removal, which I'm trying out on my next visit.

    I just received the gentlest, most relaxing pedicure I've ever had. My toes look great, my feet are soft, and nothing felt irritating like other pedicures I've gotten in the past. Toya was a wonderful nail tech, and was very pleasant and incredibly gentle while still doing a wonderful job. It was easy to schedule online and everyone was very pleasant when I checked in, even offering coffee, tea, or water upon my arrival. I've been once before as part of a wedding party group visit, and I don't know why it's taken me so long to come back. I love it and I'll definitely book another appointment again soon! Update: I totally smudged my pinkie toe due to impatience (and possibly hunger as I hadn't eaten lunch yet) and they offered to fix it right away!

    The Staple with Nail Art (full hand)  week old nails still looking brand new! :)
    Heather S.

    My experience at Spruce was amazing! I took my girlfriend here during a girls weekend and we had a blast talking with Maty and Molly! They were so welcoming, relatable, and fun to talk to! The space is so relaxing, calm, and honestly just good vibes. My nails are already a week old and they still look BRAND NEW! I will definitely be going back and I can't wait!! :))

    I came in with an idea for Pride nails and Maty went above and beyond! I love them and have received so many compliments! THANK YOU! ‍

    Alesha and Kim are the best in Cincinnati. Super nice, always make you feel comfortable. Very fast…read moreand efficient! The location can be kinda hard to find if its your first or second time. The parking lot is in the back and there are plenty of spots. You can book online and they keep your card on file for faster transactions. My only negative is that the price for eyebrows seems high, most places are $10-15, they charge $17 I believe. But I'm all about supporting a local, female owned business. :-)

    I went to Heavenly Bodies for my first time today, and Alesia took awesome care of me!…read more The wax was amazing, ten times better than the Brazilian I got at a chain last month. I always prefer small businesses to corporations, and today I remembered why. Don't be fooled by a coupon. This isn't a review for that other place, so I won't get into how awful it was. I'm just so shocked by the difference. Lesson learned: just pay for the service you want. Alesia was kind, quick, gentle, and thorough. The pain was barely noticeable. I have no shame or modesty, but even if you do she won't make you feel weird! Haha. I wish I could just make an appointment for you, that's how pumped I am by this wax. Also as a side note... I hate going places that make me feel weird about wearing a mask or asking to wash my hands. I'm higher risk, and it makes me nervous to try new places. Alesia offered me hand sanitizer when I came in, sanitized everything, had touchless hand washing areas, wore a mask, and opened the sliding door with her elbow. I appreciated that! The house is hardish to fine (it's pink, that'll help you see it!) and there's parking behind it. So much more comfortable than some chain place that looks and smells like a tanning salon. Honey, go get your wax!!
