    I have fungus growing on 4 of my nails after 2 months of recent visits acrylic nails with gel polish. Tried to go in and talk with someone but the lady said this happens to her nails too, and that I probably left them on for too long. She offered to file them down and put something on them, but I don't trust this salon with the safety of my nails any longer. I visited on 4/4, 4/18, 4/25 and had a pedicure on 5/6. My nails DID NOT look like this prior to visiting this salon. I'm paying $70+ for nails every visit, to get a fungus. I've never in 20+ years of having my nails done experienced this. YES TJ NAILS WAS THE SALON WHO DID MY NAILS.

    Very lovely place to be in. The quality of service is top notch. They take their time to work on you

    Service has been great to me so far, they do an amazing job and have lots of different shades to choose from. Walk ins are welcome but if possible to avoid a long wait call in and make an appointment. I've loved all my sets here and I think prices are fair for the Federal way area.

    Every time I come they do a great job! Tbh I was just here last night & double backed to come back get my toes done today!

    Hand painted snowflakes.... Awesome

    Was my 3rd time coming here and today definitely was the best. I showed Jonny a picture and he hand drew the lines and the snowflakes ... unbelievable Absolutely recommend this place

    Eric is truly amazing! He can duplicate most designs. If your looking for a clean place not priced high this is the place.

    TERRIBLE. TERRIBLE. Thank god I had a gift card cause I'm not coming back! Came for an eyebrow wax and the lady applied HOT wax and it literally burned my eye. Now, I am left like this. Shame on you guys. Never again. I shouldn't have tipped the stupid lady. Ugh.

The atmosphere was great, very inviting. I was the only customer in there on a Tuesday afternoon it was very calming for my first time. I had scheduled a Gel-X with Miss Chakrya, she is so sweet. This is the most a nail tech has ever spoken to me before it was different but lovely. I'm giving a 4 star just because of price, online it's $10 for a French tip I paid $15. The design is the same on every nail and it was about $30. I was the only one there and there was no rush I wish they would have at least tried to tell me about prices. My total should have been over $100 without tip but since it was my first time they gave me 10% off VERY APPRECIATED. I just wanna warn about the parking situation, the establishment is located in a pretty decent sized plaza but even on a Tuesday @2pm the parking lot was PACKED so go early if you have an appointment. Miss Chakrya was very kind I never felt rushed with color picking or shaping. I WILL BE RETURNING

Owner is warn, accommodating, and an amazing nail artist and pedicurist. Like most places in Federal Way, don't be fooled by the exterior strip mall decor. In fact, owner recently renovated the entire space and it looks amazing (photos attached). Very clean, tranquil and large number of loyal customers (always a good indication!). If you are on a schedule, call and make an appointment. Walk-in's are welcome and every technician is great so no worries who you get. Fridays and Saturdays are usually the busiest. They're also open on Sunday's which is super convenient but shorter hours. They do everything from acrylic, gel tips, gel, dip and more. Waxing is also super affordable and well done. I always go for the deluxe pedi but the pearl ones are also super affordable. They have all of the latest trends and colors - chrome, ombré, new cat's eye (various magnets techniques), neons, etc! Hundreds of colors and pre-made plus original/custom nail art (see my holiday nails photo). From simple, clean looks to nail art and jewels, they do it all. Bonus - three fantastic restaurants in the same mall area. Highly recommend!!!

We are normally very easygoing customers and rarely complain, even when there are small mistakes on the salon's end. The lady who did my nails was very kind, and I did end up with a really cute manicure. Even though the shape was not exactly the rounded almond shape I requested from the reference photo I showed, the color still turned out beautiful. However, during my pedicure, the skin around my toe was aggressively probed and pulled because it was thought to be ingrown. In the past, this extra skin usually came off easily when done properly, but this time it was painful enough that I was trying to hold in my reaction while she kept digging and pulling. The area ended up bleeding quite a bit, became swollen afterward, and has been throbbing for over 7 hours to the point where I had to take medicine for the pain. I even took photos afterward because I was concerned about how irritated it became. In addition, my eyebrow was over-waxed. And I really thought she was joking when she said "this never happens before." I felt like I was blamed for "talking too much," even though the owner was the one engaging in conversation and asking questions throughout the appointment. We also called afterward regarding being extra charged despite already leaving over a 20% tip, but were then told the eyebrow service was "free" because it had been damaged. Unfortunately, we still have not received a callback or response even though we had just left not long before calling. I understand mistakes can happen, and I truly appreciate the friendliness of the staff and the final manicure result, but I hope more care, professionalism, and accountability can be given in situations like this moving forward.

I told Michelle I changed my mind and didn't want to spend more money on a fix since I had already paid so much at the other place, but she kindly offered to at least reshape them to make them look slightly better. As she started to shape them, she decided to redo my whole set because she genuinely cared about how they looked and wanted me to leave happy. Michelle is such a perfectionist in the best way, her attention to detail and patience were incredible. She made sure I loved my nails every step of the way. Her staff was also so kind, helpful, and you could tell they all truly care about their work and their customers. The salon closed at 7, but they stayed over an hour and a half late just to make sure my nails were perfect. They also did an amazing job on my mom's and sister's nails. You can really feel the compassion and pride they put into what they do. I left with beautiful nails and such a grateful heart.

The person on the phone told me they could fit us in if we came right away, so we arrived around 5:15 PM. We ended up waiting until about 6 PM and had Kim and Michelle (who I believe is the owner) do our nails. Before starting, I explained that I wanted gel that wasn't too thick or too thin. Michelle said they had different kinds of gels, and when I asked about the prices, she told me **hard gel was $70** and **builder gel was $110**. I chose the $70 option since it was within my budget. They started our nails around 6:05 PM and finished quickly before closing at 7 PM. Both Kim and Michelle did an **amazing, phenomenal job** our nails look beautiful and professionally done. However, I was completely surprised at checkout. I had gotten hard gel with a cat-eye color, and my total came out to **$120**. I've never paid that much for a manicure before, even my Russian manicures cost less! While I understand some services can add to the price, this total felt unexpected and not clearly communicated upfront. Overall, the quality of work was excellent, but the **lack of price transparency** was disappointing. Unfortunately, because of that, I don't think I'll be returning. The experience and skill were great but the surprise pricing is something I can't justify.

I also don't like feeling like the butt of the joke in a different language I don't understand, while someone points at my feet and laughs. If you have social anxiety or often don't like to have services like hair and nails done due to the social aspect of it, this is for you. She is located inside of Alexis Spa Skincare. She has her own workspace that is basically private. Her area is clean and tidy and well lit. She is very meticulous and methodical as she moves through the service. She's also very gentle and doesn't push you to talk too much. You can tell she really knows what she's doing. This was by far the best and most thorough pedicure I've ever had. Very chill. When you first come in, they seat you and let your service provider know you're here. The waiting lobby is small, but very lush and comfy. The inside is very clean and tidy. Plenty of natural light, but not blinding. The entire time my service was happening, it was silent. She said a few words to me in greeting and started the service. Aside from a few questions and a short getting to know you session, I actually got to sit in silence with no children asking for snacks, no kids tv in the background, no dogs barking, nothing. Silence. IT. WAS. GLORIOUS. If you need a break from heavy people-ing while you just sit back and let someone else make you beautiful, this is the place to be. 10/10 recommend.
