what even is this tip it's uneven and lumpy

i never leave a salon without tipping, but there's a first time for everything. i sat there for 2 hours to get charged $85 for a bad set. the pictures speak for themselves. note that 3 nails were missing, so that means the DRAMATICALLY longer nails were the ones that they applied. whoever was learning from this woman doing my nails should run (1 star) update! nami did a lovely job fixing them for free, which i greatly appreciated. they're not perfect, but i don't mind. there are still things that i have issues with but i feel like i can't speak explicitly on the steps of the nail process (products/tools/technique) without having a license in the practice; i'll only speak on the results objectively. thank you guys! (3 stars)

Went to this nail salon for a manicure and was extremely impressed with the skill and all around kindness of Dia and Tiffany. Loved everything about my visit and will definitely be back soon!!

Very kind and welcoming staff

Disclaimer: This is my first ever pedicure so I have absolutely nothing to compare it to. After a 36 hour shift, my feet were killing me. I've lived beside Tiptoes for three years and always thought it would be a nice treat to myself after a long shift and today my tired feet led met straight there. Boy am I glad they did! The staff was very kind and welcoming. They talked me through the whole thing, explaining what they were doing and why (I just did not understand those plastic bags of wax at first!). The whole experience was very relaxing and enjoyable; I definitely plan to return. It included a nice leg massage and hot stones as well as a massage chair. The entire experience lasted roughly 35 minutes. Base price is $30. If you have a GW ID, it is down to $28. You cannot add gratuity on your card, so make sure you bring cash to tip for the excellent service.

My totally ruined nails

The most horrible experience I have ever had in my life! I have made an appointment two days earlier. Came on time to an empty salon and sat down to get my gel nail polish removed. Suddenly, three other clients came. I was left with the accetone on for an hour before I had enough. And the main lady said "look the nail polish is not even coming off". Are you serious??? You melted my acrylic off!!!! I left and now look horrible and will have to pay for an entire new set of nails. Never again!!! So disorganized, it was unreal

As much as I love the convenience of tip toes, their service could use some work. I paid $50 for sns nails (no tips on them) only To have them break one week later. They generally last three weeks. When I called to get them fixed, they wanted to charge me $10 per nail, even though they clearly did a poor job. I won't be going back, and for anyone reading this review, I recommend dc nail spa or persimmons. This is absurd, I have an event tomorrow and this shouldn't have happened.

Small place. Came in and had no wait which was nice. I came in to get my acrylics removed and replaced with a simple gel manicure. The older technician that started taking off my acrylics scratched me and made my finger bleed but did not apologize or even admit to doing anything. Needless to say it wasn't fun sticking a cut finger into the acetone solution! The other technician that ended up completing the task and doing the gel manicure was more gentle however she did not clean up my nails after the painted them so some of my fingers have nail polish on them when they shouldn't. Not that big of a deal but again I'm paying $40 for your services and end up leaving with a cut and with paint on places other than my nails. It wasn't a terrible experience but I probably won't go there again unless I absolutely have to.

Reality

I've been here a couple times and got acrylics done with plain sns colors and they were great, didnt chip at all, perfect. However I was a little disappointed this time round - I asked for these nails (inspiration photo) and did not really get what I wanted. The polish she used for the nail art was too shimmery and it came out looking really faint and to be honest, not very recognizable. Additionally, while she took her time to properly prep my nails, she did machine-file my cuticles until they bled (3 fingers, you can see one with the dried blood in the photo) what concerned me the most was that after it started bleeding, she dipped the bleeding finger straight into the SNS powder (it was rather obvious and hard to miss). This seems rather unhygienic and unsanitary, i was a little worried about getting it infected. It's been 7 hours since I got my mani and my fingers are still stinging :/

Not the best nail salon! But not the worst. I come here primarily because it's ten steps from where I live. I'm lazy, what can I say?

Highly recommend pedicure services from here!…read more While I was out taking care of errands, I looked up on yelp some nearby nail shops, in hopes of getting a serious spa pedicure, and that's when I came across the incredibly high reviews of Famous Nails Spa. I called them to see if I can come in the next 10 mins for a pedicure, and they took me without issue. I was warmly welcomed when I walked in and asked to sign in, and then I walked back to the pedicure chairs. My nail techinician, who didn't introduce herself and was not particularly warm towards me, greeted me and got down to business. Now-I warned her that my feet were in a rough condition, so I didn't mind her being all business because these toes needed THE business. The pedicure service was fantastic!! my feet were scrubbed and rubbed, my toes nails cut and shaped, and my polish was summertime ready. My nail technician offered me water towards the end of my service, which I graciously accepted, however I noticed most people were offered a beverage at the beginning of their service. The spa is relatively cozy in size and efficient, no frills or luxury, but everything was tidy, and my pedicure was done amazingly, and completed in a bit over an hour. I checked out efficiently and was given a somewhat short and dry good bye..hahahaha. But honestly, their service speaks for itself. I definitely would visit here again, and beware of the limited street parking.. prices are reasonable too!

My technician was nice, but seemed to really want to get me in and out of her chair as quickly as possible. I have never kept my hands under the UV light for less than 60 seconds per layer, but at one point I timed it and my hand was under the light for 15 seconds. It was truly: finish one hand, immediately change hands to put under the light. I questioned it internally but figured she knew what she was doing. I got my nails done on a Tuesday, by Sunday one of my nails was chipped. Bliss has a policy that any chips within 10 days can be fixed for free, so I went in the next Wednesday to get the nail fixed. Again it was incredibly rushed, 15 seconds max under the light. By Friday the nail chipped again. Two days later another nail chipped. Less than two weeks and the manicure was already chipping. A disappointing experience compared to my first time there.

The nail technician (male) who worked on my naturally healthy nails did a poor job. The process took much longer than necessary, and without my request, he applied gel builder, which I didn't want or need. Typically, my gel manicures last at least three weeks without any issues at all, but this one barely made it a week before breaking and chipping. The finish was also noticeably bumpy, far from the smooth, polished look I expect from a professional manicure. I've attached photos to show the subpar results. While the ambiance and staff friendliness were highlights, the quality of the gel manicure itself was a huge letdown.

I had to ask them to leave it like that without the final step because I came back home to file down my nails and shape them and add gel and everything. I went there because I wasn't going to have time to do them on my own because of travel. It was horrible and then on top of that he cut my real nail off after I told him they were mine and then I had to ask for him to add a tip nail to it because he was going to leave it like that when he messed up. I paid $61 for this shitty service. Waste of money and time since he took almost two hours.
