Great nail place students get discount they are always very nice would highly recommend

Absolutely stunning nails and I'm in love with them! My boyfriend and I were shopping around downtown and we happened to stumble upon this hidden gem! The atmosphere was nice and relaxing and the massage chairs were beautiful and comfortable. I got a basic pedicure and then a full set of acrylics with add-on gems. The guy that was working on my nails didn't seem fluent in English but he still made me feel very comfortable and got my acrylics done in a timely manner! I highly recommend this place since it's so hidden with how narrow of a spot it's in that most people would walk right past it. read more

Tips 2 Toes - Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

The most awful nail salon experience I have ever had. I made an appointment for a french regular polish pedicure and a gel manicure. I sit down for my pedicure and they are doing my toes and my nails at the same time. The guy filed my finger nails down so short, almost to the nerve. Then the girl doing my toes paints a splotchy white line on my toes with no base color underneath. when I ask if she's going to put a color underneath she says she can only do it with gel since they need to wipe off the excess white polish with acetone. How can you have a nail salon and not be able to paint a white line? On top of all that, it smells rancid in here. This place should be put out of business, I've never seen anything like it in my life. read more

Jeez the worst salon I ever went to And dirty , not pay attention to what they are doing Not cleaning nails well Price is like for high end salon If you want to try it walk in and walk out read more

BEWARE! These folks can't do nails. Not only can they not do nails, they lie about their skills. When I arrived, I very explicitly asked to have a nail fixed without using a glue on nail. After a quick exchange, the girl confirmed that she's able to do what I requested so I allowed her to begin doing my nails. When it finally came down to fixing the nail, she pulled out the box with plastic glue ons and attempted to berate me into getting it done the way she knows how. I refused and since she had poor knowledge of the English language, I asked to speak to her manager. The manager came in, apologized and assured me he KNOWS how to do what I asked. He began to work and I quickly realized that he is just as clueless as his employee. They did not have the right equipment to work with shellac, nor do they have the skill set. When he was done and showed me his work, I was horrified! The nail was crooked and as thick as my finger. When I told him that this won't work and asked him why he lied about his skill set, he told me, again, that I should have just gotten the glue ons.... After that I left. read more

I asked for a regular manicure and I believe they used gel polish. the next day, not even 24 hours later, the polish was wearing off on most nails. when I left a review with a picture, the response was, that's why we recommend gel to our clients. Well, gel was never recommended to me and I hate gel manicures because it ruins my nails. they took the picture of my nails off the review. This place is a ripoff. read more

My friend and I went in today at 4 o'clock and didn't get helped until 5. The male employee started my friend's nails and all of a sudden got up in the middle of doing her nails and urgently rushes out. When he comes back after a couple minutes he reeked of weed. Then he started on me and his nails were digging into my finger and he was being very agressive. Then the woman finished my nails and in the process got hair in my polish, filed my nails down into actual daggers and just overall messed them all up. I would not recommend going here instead you should go to The Nail Place or Best Nail Bar. read more

Unclean environment with very little customer service. I went in for a nail-take off and didn't feel comfortable enough staying for my service. read more

I wanted to pop in for a quick color change, and Tips-2-Toes was recommended by the hotel concierge. I am pleased overall with the service I received, and my gel nails are still fully intact 2 1/2 weeks later. I don't think I would make this my regular salon if I lived in Charleston, but it worked for a quick service on vacation. The salon itself wasn't the most aesthetically pleasing place and bordered feeling a little dirty. A little on the pricy side for a color change vs. full manicure. read more

First, it was dirty, then we asked when we made the appointment, right before we arrived and when we walked in if they could do us all at the same time and they bald faced lied and said they could. They not only didn't do us at the same time but worked in walk ins before we all were done. Terrible place read more

I would give this place a zero stars if I could. DO NOT GO HERE, THE OWNER AND NAIL TECH HAS A SWASTIKA TATTOO. I am absolutely disgusted after my visit here. The nail tech not only made my friend and I uncomfortable and would not stop massaging her legs after she repeatedly asked him to stop, but also has a very visible swastika tattoo on his arm. They overcharged my friend $25 than what the price on the wall said. It took over an hour for three of us and we were the only ones in the store. This place was terrible in every way other than the decent job they do on nails, and that is NOT enough to save them from everything else. read more

This place is a tourist trap. This is what $85 ($70 + tip) got me. A very chipped gel manicure after four days. The pedicure (not gel) is holding up slightly better. If you have money to burn, feel free. Everyone was "nice," but at the end of the day (or four days in the case), so what? Go elsewhere. read more

3.5 starts is extremely generous for this establishment. the reviews didn't make it seem half bad but immediately after walking in, i regretted it. the place the absolutely disgusting dirty. i question whether their tools were sanitary and disinfected properly. they clearly haven't swept or mopped in months either. the polish was uneven and nails were not shaped correctly. my advice would be to book elsewhere. read more

Not a bad spot for a pedicure. Staff was nice and welcoming. Pedicure was a bit rushed and some of the polish was a little sloppy, but not terrible. The massage chairs were nice and comfortable and there was plenty of time to sit and let them dry. I even smudged one somehow while we were out and about, and so I came back a couple hours later and they happily fixed it for me. I appreciated that! read more

Alright, I am a HUGE perfectionist when it comes to my nails. Was brought to this spot a couple weeks ago and NOT IMPRESSED at all. Got a full set and the nails were crooked. Was legit told that my finger was crooked. Against my better judgement, I came to this place one more time to give them a second shot...only to be pleasantly surprised to learn that they JUST CHANGED OWNERSHIP LAST WEEK! My experience today was superb!!! The new owners will absolutely gain a loyal customer base in no time if they keep up the good work. I will admit, I'm a little high maintenance and very particular about what I want. Danny, the new owner, was patient with me and put in a lot of time to make sure he did an excellent job, as well as made sure I was 100% satisfied before I left. That kind of customer service really wins me over. We pay good money to get our nails done and deserve to have somebody take the time to really pay attention to details. An excellent job all-around. If you've had a bad experience here before, GIVE THE NEW OWNERS A CHANCE! Ask for Danny!! read more

We were able to make a reservation last minute and walked out with a lovely mani-pedi from a friendly family establishment

Would give 0 stars if I could. Made a 2:30 appointment & they had me waiting for 25 minutes before I finally walked out after they continuously said "5 more minutes". Ridiculous and absurd. Go anywhere else. read more

I've been going to this salon for about a year, and have never left disappointed. I have 2 nail techs I stick to, Kim and Rita, and they are phenomenal. Not only are they talented, but they are personable, kind, & really care about the quality of their work. They also offer a student discount for CofC students. You can't go wrong with this place! read more

Staff was very nice and the salon was very clean. My appointment was about 40ish minutes and this is one of the best gel manicures I've had in a long time. My cuticles look great and did not get any polish on them. They carry opi polish and a few other brands. I called ahead and my appointment went on time. Great overall experience and I will be back! read more

Tips 2 Toes - Gel manicure with opi #24 - Nail Salons Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

While the lady that did my pedicure was nice, the woman that did my manicure was mediocre at best. She cut my thumb with the electric file. She rushed through the whole process and smudged one of my nails while hurrying me to get my pedicure instead of letting them dry. I asked for it to be fixed and all she did was put another layer of polish. Apparently I'm not the only one who has issues with their terrible work, as I noticed two girls come in to have mistakes fixed. Not worth the money spent. I cannot believe they would stand by the work they put out. UPDATE again: Since I am not local they could not fix my manicure as I had already left the state. So the manager will be mailing me a refund. I was asked to remove my review, but I don't think that is a fair representation of the business. I was not happy with the work and a refund will not change my opinion of the work. However I am glad the manager went out of her way to refund me and it did change my opinion of the establishment. There is potential for this business. Perhaps if I am ever in Charleston, I will try them again just for the fact that the manager worked hard to rectify the situation. read more

Tips 2 Toes - My terrible acrylics nail job - Nail Salons Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

I booked an appointment and when I arrived it was closed. Be warned, this is not a legit business.

This place was very busy on a Saturday afternoon. It seems that even if you make an appointment, you will probably have to wait some, just because of the limited technicians working. The shop is pretty small, but they do a nice job. It's clean inside and they have some good color selections. I would come back here again because I also checked out some of the other places in the area and this was by far the best choice. The staff was friendly and patient. The prices are competitive. read more

Terrible business practice. Scheduled an appt one week prior to my appointment which was confirmed. Get to the salon at the affirmed time only to find it closed. Called the phone number on the door - was asked if I could wait 30 minutes until they opened. Nope. An email in advance would've been nice. Considering other reviews, glad this appointment didn't happen. read more

Convenient little nail joint within steps of the College of Charleston (they offer a student discount with an ID). The atmosphere is nice and the workers are friendly but my manicure could've been better. It was done sloppy and rushed and the design wasn't even. I must say it's two weeks in and my nails haven't chipped or budged though! Don't think I'll be returning though. read more

Amazing nails! Everyone is so nice and I loved it here! Definitely recommend! I was super happy with my nails!

This was a cute location located in down town Charleston. I was able to get in quickly and they did an amazing job the shop was clean and relaxing. I was traveling and they were able to match up my color perfectly to fix a nail I had broken. I would highly recommend this spot read more

Visiting Charleston and decent place to get nails done downtown since some of the other locations are closed post COVID. My pedicure chair was broken so that was disappointing. I got the basic pedicure and gel manicure for $70. Gel was applied well, not too thick. I went during the day on Thursday and socially distant, but not sure it would be on a busy Saturday or Sunday. Washed my hands upon arrival. Didn't see them wipe down chairs or stations between customers. read more

I showed up as a walk in and the guy working was nice at first did my toes and because i was so tired i didnt look at them til i left. My left toe nail looks like he wiped it on the floor then continued to paint it. Mind i got gel so it should have been perfectly dry and ready by the time i got my nails done. Also when going to tell the lovely woman what color i wanted my nails to be i told the guy what color i thought i picked out he argued with me what color it was til the point where i gave up and took the color that he told me. The wonderful woman who did my nails did an amazing job and made sure my nails were perfect. I wish i knew this womans name to give her the credit but i also would never let the man touch my nails again. He is very unprofessional. read more

The worst mani and pedi ever gotten. Waited 30 mins after my appt time and felt like they rushed me out. The guy gave me a 10% discount and it wasn't for the wait, but the fact that they did a terrible job. I will never be coming back to this place! read more

This had been one of my go to nail salons in town, but something changed. The service menu has been torn off the wall, you get a different price every time you go in, acrylic nails are lifting after a few days, they are under staffed, don't have plexiglass dividers and do not understand much english. Last time I was there one of the techs was arguing with customers about a miscommunication they had as well as the price. I won't be going back until I see better treatment of clients and better reviews. Sad. read more

Ken did an awesome pedicure. Hot stones. Massage. Impeccable gel application. Steven stayed after hours to do acrylic tips. Powder dipping glitter gel (SNS). They look amazing. He is an artist.
