Spent over $80 on a French full set. It took almost 2 hours and I started with clean nails. The manicure lasted less than 9 days before chips cracks and breaks. read more

Had my toes done and thought they were dry 4 hours later but nope! Went to an exercise class and when I returned home taking off my socks, they were stuck to my toes. I called the spa and they were able to get me in the next day with no problems at all. A week later toes are still looking as if I left the spa. Thank you so much for rectifying the problem and redoing my toes. Much appreciated. Lisa H. read more

band is great. I always request her. I love her. Everyone is great in there. Annie is so nice when you walk in and say hello how may I help you grab a color and then they do your nails really nice nicely. I had a nice vibe. read more

This was my first time at Tips and Toes, came because if all.the 5 star reviews on Yelp; I was not disappointed. I saw Tina she was super nice and I could tell she wanted me to be happy! She helped me in choosing the right color and she mept asking me if I liked the shape and length. Very curious and professional read more

I appreciate the scheduling by appointment. The staff did not understand my request for French manicure with dazzle dry and nude polish for toes with regular polish. My toes look like they were painted by my 5 year old niece. This was a very uncomfortable experience. read more

So glad Tips & Toes has re-opened! Leeann and her team have done a wonderful job making the salon feel safe. It's extremely clean, lots of plexiglass barriers so you can maintain distancing. Masks are being worn by everyone. Felt very comfortable and very safe. Van did my nails and, as always, she did a wonderful job! My nails look fabulous. Thank you Tips & Toes! read more

Tip & Toes is my go to! My family recently surprised me with a mani/pedi ahead of my elopement and Tip & Toes made it so special. Highly recommend checking out if you're local! read more

The young woman who did my mani and pedi was sweet and both look good. However, the whole staff seemed completely focused on tips, exchanging money back and forth. Another issue was one of the technicians blew her nose, threw out the tissue, continued to wipe at her nose and never washed her hands. Ugh. Unsure if I will go back. read more

Van did an amazing job doing an SNS dip for my Halloween request! And she even created spider webs on two of my fingers! Very clean establishment and recommend to anyone needing nail and toe needs! read more

I've been going here for about 2 years now, and absolutely love it. I typically make appts with Van, but if she's busy the rest of the girls are great too. I'm a nurse and constantly wash my hands- so when I found out about gel manicures, I was Hooked.... until I found about dip. Dip lasts 4 weeks, and possibly longer if I wasn't ready to switch colors/ they grew out. Today Van did a French manicure with dip. Love, love, love!! She did such an awesome job!! read more

Nicest salon in the Reading area.. so clean but I wish they would get rid of the chairs for the customers so uncomfortable Prices are about the same as other salons in area... I've been to most The only thing is I'm not crazy about making an appointment - if you do ask for Kathy: she is the best person who can understand your needs! read more

Sarah was not pleasant. Seemed annoyed by my presence and very impatience if my hand wasn't in the exact spot she needed for a manicure. Only smiled when it was time to pay. My manicure filing job that I paid extra for was uneven and rushed. read more

I LOVE this place ! Everyone is sweet, professional, anxious to make sure you, the customer , is always thrilled ! Annie is my favorite- and has gone above and beyond to keep me OUT of a Podiatrist office. Great music, headline news playing ( video only). And they take extreme precautions to ensure my safety! I have been going here for years read more

There's no reason to go to Tips & Toes over any other nail salon. I used to come here regularly in high school when they first opened and thought it was great. The only reason I came here today is because my family is getting together so my sister and I decided to come here for manicures. She got a new set of acrylics with gel polish which was $47 and I got regular gel which was $30. There nail technicians switched after cutting down and shaping one hand so neither hand matched the other for shape which is annoying. While pushing back my cuticles, my technician was distracted and looked away and started pushing on my actual finger which really hurt - she didn't care when I reacted. They don't look great and the top coat looks matted. read more

This was the most disrespectful customer service I've ever experienced. I requested a specific stylist because I gave the place a try 2 weeks ago and really liked how my nails came out. I returned for a pedi and a dip mani. I upgraded to Delux pedi because why not , nice treat. She said mixing funny bunny and bubble bath wouldn't look good and recommend a different color that she had in dio also. I said ok. Painted the toes and tells me they don't have the dip and she will find a similar color. I said ok. No biggie to me. The dip was clear.. the color on my toes was a white ish pink. I asked if we could do a more similar color to my toes.. still didn't match but honestly I didn't care. It's 2 weeks I'll have it. I informed her I like square. Sharp corners no round at all. I'm not sure why it just kept going rounded. And I explained just straight and she said it was round from last time. It wasn't and they grew out. So I just said ok. Clearly it wasn't going to be the shape I wanted I accepted that. Then I noticed my left middle finger nail was so thick and short had a huge lump in the middle. So when she asked if I like it I said , can you make them all the same this one is thick with the lump. She tells me that's my finger. My natural nail has a lump... She called someone over I'm assuming the owner or manager and the woman said "it's like that because if your nail, she's been doing your nails for an hour, she can't do what you like so maybe you should go to another salon". I said no actually she did them 2 weeks ago and it was great that's why I came back I actually have a picture if you'd like to see. The woman said no you can go to another salon if she can't do it. I would NEVER just get up and leave after someone spent time on me. No matter how much I don't like it. So for her to even suggest that was not only extreme and rude but not fair to the woman doing my nails. I was so close to walking out and not leaving anything because I felt so disrespected. I was super nice and calm the entire time never disrespectful at all. When the second woman came over I honestly thought maybe she was going to file it and fix it. Nope she told me to go to another salon. So then my nail tech said she'll finish and I said well am I leaving or staying because she just told me to leave so... which again I would never just leave and not pay and screw her over. So I stayed for the top coat. She immediately asked me to pay 102$ for the services and I gave 122$. Tip and service. The. She pulls out gel top coat. Which I already explained I don't do gel. It peels off at work and get stained. Dip never stains. So I said , I don't do gel just regular please. Did the top coat and sat to dry for 25 mins while she did a pedi and her fellow co worker noticed I was dry and did the oil for me and I left. I never wanted to cry in a nail salon so bad. Or ever at all. I told my tech softly and calm that I felt that was very rude. She said she didn't understand me. I said again "she was really rude and handled that poorly" she said "sorry I don't understand you" and I just sat there quiet until I was dry to leave. I will never ever ever be back. That was horrible customer service. They took every walk in without appointments, so busy!! When they asked clients to come back and they couldn't they took them anyways making everyone rush like crazy and clearly making them fed up. read more

I am so happy to have walked into this little gem this morning. I've heard so many fabulous things about this salon and now I know why! The staff, every single one of them so warm and kind. The owner knew it was my first time and took the time to come shake my hand, introduce herself and get to know me. I don't think that's ever been done to me at a nail salon. And my nails! I had Kathy and not only was she friendly but My nails are perfection. The pedicure was also fantastic. Most important of all to me is that it was unbelievably clean. Thank you so much for a wonderful morning, ladies. Can't wait to come back! read more

Ellie did my gel mani & it started chipping on the second day! It took her 1 hour to do this. Average time to do a gel mani is usually between 30-40 mins. The gel had a weird texture, so she told me to come back so she can fix it. Why spend an hour to do a gel manicure that only lasts for 2 days. If you are like me, who has no time to waste, STAY AWAY! read more

I've been going to a Tips & Toes for over a year. I love the service. No matter who is helping me they do a great job. I see Lily who is amazing but there are so many others I would also recommend to a friend. They are always busy so appointments make life easier but they will figure out how to fit you in if you just show up. Prices are good too. read more

Refer to picture. I got dip done and after one week they looked like this. When I went back to get them fixed they told me it was my fault for running my nails on my jeans. I asked to change the color and have them redone and they charged me an additional $20. Once they were fixed, they broke the night u got home. They told me they stand by their dirty black nails. I will never go back. read more

Very rude, they don't treat long time customers well. I went to get a nail fixed, and I couldn't get the same color because they couldn't help me find it, when I had the name of my polish, Which I had just had 6 days before that . I called to speak to the owner and she didn't want to hear what I was saying and proceeded to hang up on me. terrible customer service read more

Horrible experience there with Kathy, I told the woman that answered the phone I can only do appointments after 515 because of work and she wrote down 5:00 and I thought the appointment was 5:15 and when I got there I was scolded by Kathy for being late even though I told the woman who booked me I can only do 5:15 and after so I agreed to 5:15 clearly a miscommunication and Kathy still brought it up weeks later and made nasty comments about how she doesn't know if I'll even show up on time for future appointments. I get my nails done for relaxation and help with daily stresses and to have Kathy accuse me of being late (when I wasn't) and assume I would be for future appointments is ridiculous who needs that type of stress and harassment? And what's worse, is I tried booking with Tina and apparently she called out of work and not one person called me to tell my appointment needs to be rescheduled.. horrible customer service spend your money elsewhere. read more

I went to the salon for my first time on Sunday and saw Van. Let me say.. my nails look amazing! She was meticulous and my nail beds have never looked as good. I religiously get my nails done every two weeks and get gel manicures and pedicures. I also got a nail design on two nails and they were perfect from the picture I showed her. The salon is clean and white and up to date. Can't wait to go back in two weeks. read more

Great place. The service here is exceptional and very clean! I've only been a customer for a short time but have no intention of going anywhere else. I have been there atleast 4 times for mani/pedi and have been extremely pleased. Highly recommend :) read more

I went today. Although the service itself was very good, I was surprised to find when I went to pay that there was a $5 surcharge on a $29 pedicure. It was explained to me that they had to buy all this plexiglass/plastic to make sure everyone is safe. I think this is a cost of doing business. Also, surprisingly, the polish I chose was $2 extra, another surprise. It's just another bottle of OPI. So my total tab was $36. I understand the problem. But trying to make up for lost income with surcharges is nickel and diming. read more

This salon is wonderful! I booked a large group session for a community group I am a part of. The salon was so accommodating and flexible with scheduling! They had plenty of technicians booked so no one had to wait. Everyone was incredibly friendly and very service oriented, they kept offering drinks and made sure everything went smoothly. We were all very happy with the results. The salon is cute and clean. The massage chairs for the pedicures are new and work great, unlike many salons I have been too. And their prices are comparable to others in the area, I think quite fair. I will definitely be booking them for our group again and will use them personally whenever I feel like pampering myself! read more

AVOID. you know, I heard a lot of good things about this place. I work in the same town and get a bunch of customers who go here so I was optimistic going in....... but boy was I disappointed. I called on a Wednesday to come in for a pedicure that afternoon and they said that was fine. I got to Tips and Toes about 10 minutes early. When you walk in, you are not greeted by anyone, you simply put your name on the sign-in sheet and take a seat. I grabbed a magazine and sat next to an older woman who looked like she'd been waiting a while. After 20+ minutes I started my second magazine and I started looking around... the woman next to me was still sitting there... checking her watch at this point. I waited another ten minutes... then it became ridiculous. good luck getting ANY one of those people to look up at you and make some eye contact, never mind an "I'm sorry" for not honoring your appointment time.. they clearly didn't care - the non-existent customer service was NOT appreciated. so after waiting 30+ minutes, I calmly got up, put my magazine back, crossed my name off the check-in list and walked out the door. I called up the street to Cathys Nails (in reading center) and they told me to come right away. The funny part is when I was getting in my car, the older woman I was sitting next to did the same thing, walked out. Tips and Toes lost two paying customers (and I will certainly never return) - way to go guys!! As soon as I got to Cathys Nails they took me right away and the relaxation began.... the pedicure was fantastic and I will def go there from now on. read more

Great place, and so affordable. The salon was very clean and had a nice atmosphere, and everyone working there was super nice as well. I'm incredibly picky about manicures and this was one of the best I've had in a long time, the polish came out perfectly. And it was only $12! Such a deal. I'll definitely be back. read more
