    I got my nails done for $115 I am extremely pleased with the result and I would go back again. The area and the tools were a little dirty but it was not that bad. I wish they would have offered me a drink but that is not a big deal. My artist was Tony and if you want nail art done go to him. I am absolutely obsessed with my nails!

    Wish I had gotten a picture of my toes but I matched with my nails. They were so quick and did so good at the same time. Tony did my nails and they lasted so long. I always break a nail but not this time. I also thought the prices were extremely reasonable. This is my new nail shop for sure

    Ombré dip
    Deirdre G.

    Recently visited Sunshine nails after my regular nail tech was on leave and I was in need of a retouch on my SNS dip nails. I really appreciated the ability to book my appointment online and choose a technician. It was my first time visiting the shop, so someone did call to confirm, however I was lucky enough to snag a same day appointment at 5:15. I arrived around 5:09 pm and the receptionist told me the wait would be about 10 minutes and to go wash my hands (I do appreciate requiring clients to wash their hands!). In reality, my technician didn't get to me until after 6 pm as he was just starting a complicated design on another client. They did have someone come over and start the removal of my current dip (soak and file), so at the very least I was receiving some sort of service. Tony did an excellent job on my ombre nails, something I had been wanting to try for a while. So if this is based on nails alone, I'd give them 4 stars. When I got home I still had to do some additional shaping but they came out how I wanted them. The customer service however was sub par at best. Tony didn't really take the time to even speak to me before, during or after the appointment outside of ringing me up. As a first time client I would've appreciated some sort of communication, even if just a "thanks for waiting" since he didn't get to me until almost an hour after my scheduled time. So customer service definitely is closer to a 3. Also, online dip ombre nails are listed as $65 but they charged me $70 with no explanation. I don't appreciate those sorts of business practices. So, minus 1 star for the price difference, and an additional star for the lack of customer service. However, again, my nails did come out nice so that ultimately is what's important! I'd consider visiting again as a back up place!

    This was my first time going here. The salon staff was nice. I had an appointment and was seen very quickly after arriving for my pedicure. I didn't catch the lady name who did my pedicure but she was very detailed with the polish. Lily did my nails and she did a great job. I showed her the design and she nailed it.

    Literally my favorite salon in this area. I go to Sue for my pedicures and she always takes her time and is very personable. When I first started coming I had a few different people do my nails and they all do great but I have fallen in love with Vicky and I won't be going to anyone else going forward. If you bring a picture she can replicate it and if you want a freestyle design she's also able to do great with that as well. I'm so happy I finally found a nail home in Alexandria and won't have to drive to Woodbridge anymore.

    I had an appointment with Cierra. When I arrived, I was seated right away. The conversation was great. The overall vibe in the salon was very upbeat, which I appreciated. I was also grateful that my design was well received. I have already made a second appointment for my toes. My only regret is that Cierra, unfortunately, will be leaving Sunshine due to the proximity between her job and her home. She will be missed

    What I asked for

    Disappointment is an understatement. I've been going to sunshine nails on and off for 5 years + and the loyalty and appreciation Vicky (the owner) has for clients OTHER than her OWN is terrible. I got a gel x set done Monday and I called them Thursday to let them know that one of my nails popped off, and that the gel was peeling. They asked if I was able to come in right then and there but I was at work I cant just leave to repair a nail that shouldn't have popped off three days later in the first place! I explained I could be there first thing in the morning on Friday, and they reassured me It would be free of charge since I had been in early that week. Long story short I was still charged for the nail repair because they said there was a three day policy (mind you I called Thursday about my nail) I just wasn't able to drop what I was doing and run over there when they wanted me to. It was an inconvenience, as if driving and finding time in my schedule to go fix something they messed up wasn't enough, lol. They don't know how to treat customers unless you're one of Vicky's "OG" clients who's spending 300+ on nails. SIDE NOTE: These are the nails I asked for and this is what I got. Hope this helps.

    Funny enough I was referred to Kieu by a colleague-- her work was amazing. I booked for Saturday 3pm. The receptionist called and mentioned she got a cancellation. I told them I am in Fairfax so it would take about 40 minutes so I'd be there around 2:30 at the earliest. She said that's fine, anytime before your appointment would work! So I got there at 2:43pm and after settling in off rip she said we will no be able to do the designs. She said her time slots are only 1hr 15 min and she has another client in a hour. since I was 15 minutes late and I clarified you all requested me to move my set appointment for 3pm up to accommodate you. I told her it would take me 40 minutes (Coming from Fairfax). There was no consideration or professionalism, just dismissal. Mind you this is my first impression of Kieu. The excitement has vanish from this interaction, sunshine nails this should have been handled way better.

    I wanted my nails to represent women of color and Lexxi brought my vision to life.

    Again, I highly suggest making an appointment which seems easier to do through Instagram. The facility is now how it was pre-covid- no more dividers between pedicure and nail stations. I believe masks are still required. Also, a woman who cleans the facility still wipes everything down with an alcohol based cleaner when clients are finished being serviced.

    I followed my nail tech of many years here.... and they do not disappoint! My nail tech is "Jay", she is a beast at recreating anything you show her! Jay also can freestyle which always is amazing...I get Gel X nails every 3 weeks and it lastsssss. Jay's work is top tier! I use "Hanna & Liz" for my pedicures. Both techs take their time with you and you will leave with well groomed feet! My feet are done for a full month, and that's big for me! The atmosphere is very calm/relaxing, and the music is always on point! Check them out!!

    After getting my nails and feet done

    Went here to get my nails done because of another shop not doing a good job. I had a fill in and 2 nails replaced also a pedicure. My boyfriend got a clear manicure and pedicure. Price was a couple dollars cheaper than the place i went to before. Great experience. Very busy but they have numerous people working there so that is no issue. I love the over all experience here and i will be back. I will recommend this shop

    Acrylic fill with ombre glitter design
    Tiffany W.

    Checked this place out at a friend's recommendation. Everyone was nice enough, but I wasn't super impressed with the service of the actual pedi and mani. Here's why: I had a picture of the design I wanted on my nails, but they wanted to do the pedi first. That's fine but I like my toes to match my nails so wanted to confirm they could do the mani design in order to pick a color for my toes. They looked at the picture of the design and said no problem. Guess what, when it came time to do my mani they didn't have the right supplies. So we went with a different design and now my toes don't match my nails and I'll have to change the polish myself. I'm extremely annoyed at this and gave them this feedback as I was leaving. My other issue is the amount of drilling that was done to remove the polish and smooth the nails. I'm really concerned at the condition of my nails under the acrylic. Also, the tip John replaced is sticking straight out instead of curved as most tips do. Tony ended up doing my mani and when I asked him about this, he said the curve comes when he adds the acrylic. Now I've been to enough nail salons to know that isn't right. So I was annoyed at that. Lastly, I got an acrylic fill and it's extremely thick. It's pretty, but way too thick. The price for a regular pedi was $30, and acrylic fill with design was $57. This is the right price range, but I'm way too particular about my nails to return.

    I give this place two stars just because I'm really happy with the gel pedicure. I love how my toenails look like. What I'm not happy with and I am super disappointed is my finger nails. I usually go to my fav salon in DC, but I couldn't make it to DC this time, so I've decided to try Sunshine nails and get refill there. That was the biggest mistake. I've tried to explain what I don't like about the nails, but the lady couldn't/didn't want to fix it. I wanted refill and my middle fingers had nothing on it since I broke my nails before. At the end I told lady that the C curve on middle fingers look completely different and the nail color is transparent comparing to other fingers. She tried different color then it also didn't work. She told me they don't have pink powder like I did have on other nails, so it's going to be transparent. She didn't inform me about it before and I told her I want all my nails the same color. I just gave up at this point and told her that I guess we can't do anything and I just wanted to be done with it. I don't go to the nail salon to leave unhappy and I don't remember last time I got my nails done that badly. You probably can't see it from far away but I pay attention to the detail. I just wasted my money and I have to go to someone else to redo it. Just look at the pictures.

    If I go about 30/45 min before you close can I still get my nails done?

    Is their website no longer working? I usually use it to book my waxing and pedicure appointments on it but am unable to get the site to load whenever I've tried this past week. I get an error message instead...

    Which nail tech should I go to if I want nice long acrylic nails with sharp/precise shaping and great gel application?

    Sorry for a late response. Your post just popped up today. To answer your question, most of the techs will do what you ask. You can schedule with Kathy, Tony, John or Yen-lee. Vicky and Kristina can do it as well, however, their schedules are… Read more

They will also inform you that you are receiving a discount but will up charge your price/ sell just to get the same price. I know this is a new location. However, their customer service is set for certain people YT ppl that they're able to be manipulate and to control their wallets. That's why they offer you drinks so you can't think. The wine to be exact. Also it has been a good thing that they stopped smoking in the back of the nail shop before you would walk in and it would just reek of cigarette smoke location, not even two years old.
