The owner kindly fixed my nails after the last debacle but - I cannot. This is not the salon for you if you are busy and have a life. Unless you're not picky and willing to let anyone do anything to your nails. That isn't me. Sadly, the owner refuses to set appointments for herself or any of her staff a week out, demanding instead that you call her precisely three days before you want the appointment... I think my last review summed it up. So if you're picky and busy, this isn't your spot. Otherwise, try it. The pros remain on the location, polish selection, and number of available services. For me, the cons have finally and fully outweighed the pros. Ugh. This is exhausting. read more

Tenley Nails - My regular dip in nude 160. - Nail Salons Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

I decided to go here because of the Yelp reviews so it's only right I leave one myself. First time/walk-in customer & was seen right away. Gel pedicure included the callous treatment which is usually extra. The man who did my pedicure was really nice & did a good job. Sometimes men can be rough & rush and I usually avoid having a man do my feet but I wouldn't mind him again. I'm used to paying $80+ for that so to only pay $55 and leave satisfied felt good. Will return. read more

Helene was amazing! She didn't have to squeeze me in, but did anyways. Even though she was busy, she was still very attentive and detailed oriented with my nails. I definitely recommend making an appointment, but once you do it'll be worth it! read more

The shop is beautiful and always clean! Lena and her staff are the best in the area! I've been a client of hers for going on ten years. She does amazing work and is always ahead of the nail trends. read more

I love Tenley Nails - for adults. They (for the most part) are attentive to detail and put in effort to ensure you get what you've come for. However, I 100% would not recommend for kids. I brought my little one in after calling to see if they did kid nails. My baby left with no top coat on her toes or her fingernails and her toe nail got messed up and they sent her out anyway. 10/10 on making a memorable first nail salon visit (she says with maximum sarcasm. But you live and you learn. This salon is not where you want to bring your kid. read more

Similar to other reviews, their nail techs are pretty good or at least meet expectations but their prices seem to change every-time I come in. Normally I pay 110-120 for refill (acrylic and gel) and pedi (regular). The next time was 145, then after that 160. Today, when I was almost done with my nails they said it would be 160 for just the refill (see photo below), excluding the pedi. Between LA and Miami or even in the DMV, I've never heard of just a refill and no design for just 160. Even the nail tech seemed surprised when their boss told the price. I essentially left without getting a pedicure and went to Fantasy nails and spa down the street for a cheaper price but still having the same quality. I would advise anyone who comes to this place to always check the price of exactly what they're getting. In my opinion this is highly over price to pay 160 for just a refill with no design. Not worth it! read more

They did a great job and got me in last minute on a Sunday! The were able to replicate what I wanted exactly. They started working on my mani and pedi at the same time and finished in great time. 10/10 I 100% recommend! And the pricing was very reasonable. $55 for gel pedi and $105 for full set acrylic mani read more

I'm not sure why the overall rating is only 3 stars, especially considering how awful some other nearby salons are. I walked in for a mani-pedi ($35: reasonable) and was pleased with the color selection and brands (plenty of OPI and Esse). The pedicure was one of the best I've had in awhile. The tech was a bit of a perfectionist, which was fantastic. After a summer without nail care, this was desperately needed. My one complaint? No post-mani shoulder massage! But I've received a little rub after mediocre nail treatments, so I'll happily return. read more

Helen is very entertaining. Its a small salon of three technicians, so if it's busy you can expect a wait...but they move fast and will stay open past their close time to accommodate you if you sign your name on the appointment sheet. They are pretty quick with service and this is first and only salon I go to for dip powder nail service. The pedicures from the male owner are great as well because it includes a nice leg and foot massage that is amazing. I like the feeling of coming into a salon and the technicians knowing my style and history and that's what you'll get here. read more

I tipped the nail technician extra because she smacked my ass and gave my thigh a little rub while I was washing my hands. Not sure what that was all about but it resulted in a smile from both of us. This place is not fancy by any means, but they get the job done. And they keep the Disney channel on, so I was able to keep up on on my tween television. The massage chairs were pretty old, but for a $30 mani/pedi combo I didn't care. At first when she started cutting my cuticles I was fearful she was a little too gentle about everything. That was until she took the cheese grater out. Haven't seen that before, but I can't remember the last time my feet felt this soft. On top of that that she also used a nice little exfoliating scrub and also massaged in plenty of lotion following. Overall, pretty quick, convenient and quaint little nails salon. No bells and whistles, but for the price point you will leave satisfied. read more

Went here for a pedicure. It Was Not the best. She cut to far into my skin causing me pain, twice on the same foot no less. when I said something I was ignored me. She may not have understood my English but Ouch is universal! read more

They check all the boxes: High quality mani's and pedi's and good friendly customer service. The prices are comparable. I will definitely go back. Best mani/pedi I have had in the 2 years since I moved to Silver Spring. read more

Wanted to find a new nail salon closer to home and never knew Tenley Nails existed!! I've been living in downtown SS for 4 years and only couple weeks ago that I noticed there's a nail salon 5 min walk from my apartment. Apparently this establishment have been taken over by new management. I had to call ahead for appointment due to covid...I called at 10:30AM and asked for a 1PM slot, I walked in and was asked to sign a waiver and my temperature was taken upon arrival. I was immediately seated in the pedicure chair. I asked for a simple gel mani and gel pedi, I was thinking of going for a matte look and the owner allowed me to take a look at how the matte would look like on my nails with the color I chose and decided that I'd go with "shiny" this time around, I like that she gives her input as a professional and let me decide as a customer, you don't find that in many salons. The total came out to be $85 before tip. The owner uses Zelle as payment so that was an easy transaction. Would I come back? Planning on it in 2 weeks! read more

I'm from out of state, but I was in the area working for several months. I chose this salon 100% based on Yelp reviews and I have not been disappointed. I have Nora do dip nails with gel polish and she does an amazing job. I never feel rushed or like they are trying to push people through or double-book like other salons. They have a nice nail polish selection as well. Prices are reasonable and comparable to other places. The pedicures are wonderful as well! The store just put in brand new spa chairs that are beautiful! The salon is small, but the staff are friendly and Lean, the owner, is so kind. She has remembered my name since the first time I went. I go every two weeks and I love being able to text her and book an appointment. They offer waxing as well and that service is great too! I have recommended 3 other friends to this salon and all have been pleased with the services they have received. I would highly recommend to anyone! read more

Poor service & poor quality work. My daughter & I went in today for manicures. It's spirit week at her school so we took school themed nail decals for application. When we arrived, someone greeted us & ask what services we desired. I replied that we needed 2 manicures. They seemed surprised, I don't know why. We were directed to choose colors & assigned 2 stations to sit at. One nail technician started on my daughter's nails, but another client came in the door & he left my daughter to go the the other client. Another tech then took over. At the same time, my service was starting. The tech asked me what shape I wanted & I requested round nails. She cut my nails down & shaped then SQUARE! She also tried to badger me into gel polish when I specifically requested regular polish because gels ruins my natural nail. When I went to wash my hands & noticed the square shape, I mentioned it to her & though she re-shaped my nails to round, she seemed annoyed by having to do so. I had requested a French manicure with the decals applied on the clear area of the nails. She took one look at the decals & declared that they were too big, and only after I pointed it out did she see that the decals were several sizes. Additionally, she did not seem versed in choosing the proper size decal for my nail. As I am writing this, my polish is already starting to lift (see pictures). Also, my daughters decals look like they were applied after being placed on a dirty surface. The quality here used to be so much better. Unfortunately, we will not return to this establishment. read more

Clean inside and nice people. Ultimately disappointed though. I thought they did an ok job on my manicure. It was hard to explain to them what I wanted even though I showed them a picture. That was a little frustrating. Over all it was fine, reasonable price. BUT my gel manicure started chipping off my thumbs only two days after it was done, and now, five days later, is significantly chipped off. I paid them for one thing: a gel manicure that's supposed to last, and due to a failure to provide that I likely won't be going back without trying other places first. read more
