    A small gem on U Street! I found this nail salon on Google and I'm so happy that I came. John took great care of me and did my nails beautifully. I will definitely be back in a couple of weeks. They have a variety of colors to choose from along with mood change and cat eye color nail polish. Thanks again SNS!

    My gel manicures and my pedicures from here last so long! This spa has many colors and styles to choose from. Also the chairs and atmosphere are very comfortable. Sometimes the service is slow compared to some other salons. But I do appreciate that they take their time and do things properly.

    Never again! This is one week after i got my nails done. Never had any problems with breakage and two nails broke. Plus the peeling gel. Definitely was not worth it. Won't be back.

    I've been getting my nails (and the occasional wax) done here for three years. I actually loved to Georgetown but come back to U St to have them do my nails. The prices are competitive and every person on staff does a fabulous job. I've gone other places when on vacation and my longest manicures are always done here. They also have Discovery or Food Network on the tv. It's a small thing but I like that because I need a break from watching the news.

    I have been to this shop 3 times and I haven't had a bad experience. I do wish they had the plastic covers for the pedicure but it's not that bad. They have a wide range of colors. I searched forever to fine a place that did chrome nails and they ended my searchI even got my first matte nails done here. I'll be back.

    John is the absolute best!

    Cozy spot on U St. Clean, excellent service, and unmatched attention to detail. I've only been here twice but I plan to be a regular as long as John is here! He's the best nail tech I've ever been to - precise yet delicate and very sweet. Suggest making an appointment - they're busy on weekends and weeknights!

    I really love this little place. It's tucked away on U Street and offers great service and very reasonable prices for the DC area. I got a full set of acrylics for $30 (no gel) and after a week the set is still going strong. It's natural and lovely. I recently got a pedicure and also a pleasant experience. The staff is friendly, fast but not rushed, and polite. When I was there, I heard two different customers go, "See you next time," meaning this place definitely has regulars which is a great sign! I'll be going here every time I need anything nail-wise :) EDIT: sadly one day after I posted this review, two of my acrylic nails fell off :( after one week, this shouldn't have happened. I guess for such a 'reasonable' price, maybe this was to be expected.

    Cuts

    I got here like at 6 and didnt leave til 7.50 First of all i got a pedi and the ladies werent attentive at all. She was on her phone and fb messaging and she starts the process then gets a call and just disappears. Rest of it went better but then another lady starts on my acrylics. 5$ more for a shape thats not square or oval, first time ever going to a shop that does this. She gets a video call while shaping and answers and puts earphones in. Shes using the drill and cuts my index finger, my thumb also super scratched. Then she hangs up. She tells me to scoot right and i do. Then yells at me to sit straight and move to the middle. I was in shock like did you just yell at me. I said nothing and moved. Its after 7.30 closing time at this point and sends me to the back to dry and starts mopping. I tell her im done and she said you can leave and im like the floor is wet. My shoes are over there and i have the paper sandals on. She brings me my shoes and im like thats it? No lotion, no massage. Never coming back. Worst acrylics, underneath nails theres built up acrylic. Nails not fully painted either. No attention to detail and super unwelcoming

    Neon coffin nails before the concert I went to!

    I am so glad I found this salon when I first moved here. John is the most meticulous and talented nail tech that I've ever had. Every time I get my nails done I get compliments on how beautiful they look. I live in Alexandria and I come to DC specifically to see him. The spa pedicures I get there that include the hot stone massage are amazing and they give you a shoulder/upper back massage while your nails are drying. The staff there are always so sweet and professional. I would recommend this salon to anyone looking for top notch services at a great price.

    Neat!

The price for a 60 minute massage is very fair for being right in the city, $130 before the discount, $110 with it (before gratuity). I have not tried any other services. Since I am a member of the gym, I knew it was located in the gym along with the hair salon and was not surprised by the entrance procedure. Rather, I was incredibly impressed by the tranquil environment they managed to create within the busy gym. Once you enter the space, there's dim mood lighting, relaxing music, water, and a separate bathroom. You wouldn't even know you're in the gym. I received a massage form one masseuse, thought it was good, and so I went back for a second with the same individual. The second time, I was deeply unimpressed. The whole experience was much more wholistic and caressing than a pressure-based massage--even after I requested more pressure. It didn't even feel like I had had a massage afterwards. So for my third session, I decided to try someone different: Ronnie. And Ronnie was amazing. He incorporated so many different techniques, including stretching, and threw in some extras like heat and aroma, even going a little over time. I would definitely book Ronnie again. It is a shame that there's no way to tell on the app (that I could see) what type of massage each masseuse specializes in, so you could select one who matches your preferences. My experiences with each masseuse were so different, and it seems a little silly that I would need to try them all before finding my favorite.

    I booked a last minute massage here with Anthony for my wedding weekend and it was incredible…read more Definitely one of the best massages ever. I'm so I found this place and I would definitely return here if I lived in the area. Just all around fantastic service and vibes.
