My daughter and I have been going here for years and have never had a bad experience. Excellent service and friendly manicurist!

i asked for a simple french manicure with chrome finish and to keep my nail length and shape as is. literally all of my nails are different lengths and shapes and the french tip is different thickness and shape on every nail. i also got my finger cut open, and on another nail the french tip is smudged entirely. to top it all off i got charged extra for the french tips that are so uneven and smooth im going to have to fully cut my nails off to deal with since i have 3 weekends of events in a row that i also mentioned. the pictures look way better than in person and that's saying something. read more

I was staying at a hotel across the street for a wedding so I stopped in for a basic manicure. I've never seen this before... I guess she didn't go all the way to the edges with the second layer so it's all sorts of uneven and does not look good. Unfortunately it was $25 dollars and I tipped $5. I did need the skin help considering I've been working with my hands a lot, but I could've painted them better myself. Don't waste the money. read more

My new favorite place for a manicure and pedicure. I loved their upgrade Deluxe pedicure for the same price. All the ladies working there are very friendly. I arrived during the day and I was the only customer. The lady named Thanh was super nice. She did an amazing job, while she was massaging my feet and putting spa product on my leg I had to ask her again to make the price was the same for this kind of service. I paid $42. That is really cheap! Most places are $45 or more for a simple mani and pedi. I can't wait to go back! read more

I went in last minute for a pedicure and the ladies were so so so so nice. The pedicure was as expected but she kept digging into both my big toes saying I had ingrown toenails, when before my visit I had zero pain or swelling. Shortly after I left my big toe started swelling and was so red. Today I woke up to it throbbing and leaking puss and even more swollen. I really liked the ladies but i didn't pay for a infection :( read more

My mom and I came in here to get mani / pedis one day for our first time. We both talked highly of our experience afterwards. I think Alisha did my full set and I was SO IMPRESSED. Normally I show an inspiration picture and if they end up somewhat similar I'm happy, but she was so detailed that they were spot on. read more

I was very disappointed with the quality of my pedicure. It took 30 minutes total. Really any massage included (Deluxe pedicure, not) and,the polish doesn't look very nice. They didn't polish the edge of the nail like you would expect from a quality salon. For $38 + a fee of $1.50 for using a credit card, it was not at all worth it. I will not go back to this salon ever again read more

Ouch!! I had a pedicure yesterday & it felt like the woman hated my feet instead of "pampering them." She went wild with the pumice stone on the soft parts of my skin - I asked her to stop because it burned. The worst part is that I woke up with a throbbing big toe due to her digging under my nails. It's bandaged with antibiotic cream instead of looking pretty with a new pedicure for Christmas. No exaggeration I can't put pressure on it this morning. The people were nice enough, hence the two stars but SERIOUSLY OUCH!!!! I won't be back! read more

* WHERE/WHEN * Went in to Twin City Nails last night (Wednesday) at about 6:50pm, they close at 8pm. I was greeted by a woman that asked what I wanted, I answered a full set of nails. She said umm.. then looked at the clock and then at the appt books and said okay fine, take a seat here. I cracked that up as whatever I came in close to close she's probably had a long day just like me. * SERVICE * She got started right away by glueing on the nails.. no cuticle trimming and didn't even make sure to get all of my charcoal colored polish off so you can see that in some of the corners of my nails. I would say i'm the most annoyed by the fact she didn't trim my cuticles or push them back so the polish was right up to my cuticles. The pictures i've provided look like they are a few days old because of how far out the polish looks on my nails but they were taken an hour after the service. * COLORS * While I was picking out the gel polish colors (they have a zillion to pick from) I happened to pick out a color i loved when i showed her she said they were phasing those out and didn't have that one. Why is it a choice then? * VERDICT * Overall the place is fine. I will probably never go back. I'm not saying I wanted a spa service but i'd say you would probably get a little more at most places at least polish that covers all of your nail and they take care of your cuticles. I got a full set of gel nails with gel polish, cost: $55. read more

I couldn't be more pleased with the pedicure I got at Twin City Nails. I went to TCN a little over a month ago, and my pedicure still looks almost brand new. In fact, last night my boyfriend got home and asked me if I had just had a pedicure (he obviously wasn't looking super close, but it still looks pretty good)! I made a reservation on a Thursday evening for 2 pedicures at 3:30pm the next day. When we arrived on Friday, the nail salon was packed, but since we had a reservation, they got us in right away. The pedicures lasted about 40 minutes, and the nail technicians were nice and efficient, although not overly friendly. The shop is also very reasonably priced - $30/pedicure. I will definitely be going back and would highly recommend! read more

Just got my nails done and I love them. This is my first time as Twin City Nails and it was a great experience. First thing I noticed when I stepped in was how clean the place was. Everything was well organized, floor spotless and it didn't have a burnt plastic like smell that some places do. The middle of the store is where they keep their selection of nail polish and they are even on spinners so it's easy to select the color you like. I liked this compared to other places I've been before. Sometimes you feel awkward walking to a wall or somewhere else that seems hard to get to. Staff was very friendly. I enjoyed sitting down with Ngoc. Not only was she very talkative she was very professional. You can tell with the speed and efficiency she did my nails that she has been working the industry for awhile. It made me feel like i was being very well taken care of. The final product was excellent! My nails are very shiny and the nail polish just glows. read more

I went to this salon today to get my nails filled. I went on Yelp before hand and the reviews overall were really positive so I had high hopes. Boy, was I wrong. The girl who did my nails was nice. PROS of nail shop: A variety of nail polishes and gel polishes Very open and lots of chairs I felt like she rushed to get my nails done, she was going to come over and check them before I left and was no where to be found. I have had better quality and service for what I was charged. I won't be returning here. read more

I went here on a Tuesday evening around 5:30ish and just walked right in. A lady said hello right away and asked what I wanted to do, which was nice because sometimes you are ignored when you walk in nail salons at first! She was super helpful and nice. I ended up getting gel polish done, but no manicure because I'm going to do that in 2 weeks before a wedding that I'm in. I just wanted a quick gel polish to help my nails grow out - but that's besides the whole point of this review hahaha ANYWAY... just gel polish is $20, and I believe a gel manicure is $35? Prices are decent. One thing I LOVED about this nail salon is the choice of nail polish colors - they have so many nude shades (pink and brown tones) that I love!!! It's so hard to find the perfect nude or neutral color, so I loved their choices. One thing I didn't know is that tip is cash only... Thankfully I had cash floating around in my purse, but I'd feel super bad if I didn't! Overall, my nails look super good and I love the color! I'm excited to go back and get a full manicure with it. read more

Twin City Nails - ONLY gel polish, not full manicure $20 - Nail Salons Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

The lady who did my nails was super nice. She accidentally made my finger bleed with the file. I said it was okay because I barely felt it and she kept apologizing. She was very efficient & paid attention to details. My nails turned out gorgeous! However, I paid $67 for a full set. 3 days after getting my nails done, my pinky nail broke. I was cleaning my kitchen. A normal daily activity. I wasn't too upset about it because I thought it was my fault. It hasn't even been a full week and now my middle finger nail broke off. I have never had a full set feel so frail and break off that easily. You would think spending that much money would be worth it. But they barely lasted a full week. I was super happy leaving the salon but now I'm very sad they didn't last long. read more

I am typically not one to splurge on a gel manicure. I pride myself on my home manicures, because I am type-A and you better believe I want things looking perfect. But it was a girls night, and I wanted a fun mani to last me while we went to AZ. And, I wanted bright white so I thought it was best done by professionals. I chose Twin City Nails based on other reviews, and I was impressed. We made appointments, and despite being busy we were all settled in right away. I warned the manicurist that I am a bit of a perfectionist, and she did a great job with the polish. The only knock (which is a big contributor to any service experience) is that she was very harsh and rough on my nails. Hard filing, rough buffing and overall a bit abrasive in the process. It felt very rushed and not at all relaxing. Cold water to soak my nails, and I was a bit tense during the whole process. Bummer. That said, everything looks great and I am crossing my fingers these beauties last me 2 weeks - if so, then it was still worth it even with the less-than-peaceful process. Better than most places I have been! read more

Twin City Nails - White Gel Manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

I used to come here often when they charged $35 for a mani and pedi. Now, the price has gone up while quality has gone down. At $42 for mani and pedi, it's too much when I have to walk out of here with nail polish all over the sides of my fingers. For $35 I would have let it slide. read more

I went here last night and Heidi was so meticulous with my mani/pedi. Always go for gel on my nails, lasts three weeks! The price is pretty reasonable compared to happy nails in ep. I will be back after my vacation to see her again! read more

I was a bit skeptical about trying this place since the reviews were mixed but was pleasantly surprised. Got a regular mani pedi. My nails lasted over a week which has never happened with a regular manicure so it was definitely worth the money. This was the most inexpensive nice quality salon in the area and will definitely be going back. It was also amazing that they upgrade your regular pedicure for a deluxe. Wish I could give this place more than 5 stars! read more

Looking for a new salon to do my pedicures, my feet get nasty from standing 8-10 hours a day at work wearing dress shoes. Decided to give this place a go, saw it many times when I pick up my Caribou coffee. Best idea ever!!! Place is very clean and the chairs were very comfortable. I didn't have an appointment, but because I was one of the first people there, I didn't have to wait. I worked with Alisha and she was very friendly, not to mention she speaks perfect English so that was a plus. Sometimes you go to these shops, and they have no clue what you're saying. I tried to mind my own business, playing on my ipad but couldn't. The staff actually wanted to have conversation. I was just so used to going to salons where the staff will work on your feet but is silent to you during the whole time, or holding their own conversation in a language you can't understand, which makes the whole experience awkward. So I gotten many pedi's before, but besides getting the regular scrub down, this time I had my feet wrapped in a hot towel, that was a first for me. Felt really good. I wish I got a good foot massage too, but every place is different. I ended up doing a manicure also since she did such an awesome job on my feet. It was nice and smooth, overall very satisfied with the work. This is my first time reviewing a place, but I gotten such a good experience I want everyone to know that they should give it a try. I will definitely be returning!!! read more

I made an appointment for a pedicure based on the good reviews I saw on Yelp. When I walked in, the place was packed and the atmosphere was anything but relaxing. Between the wall color, the smell of nail products and the loud music, Twin City Nails is definitely a nail "place" not a "spa". On to the pedicure. As it was happening, I thought it was fine, though there were a few ouches while the pedicurist cut my cuticles. On leaving, I thought it was a place I wouldn't *not* go to again but would try somewhere else first. Now, one day later, my toes/cuticles hurt so badly, there's no way I'd go back and I'm watching them closely for signs of infection. read more

The first 5-star review goes to the Minnetonka Twin Cities Nails of all places. No, this is not the same service that you would get from a salon-salon, however the price paired with the service was pretty spectacular. I came in here after a quick HH at BLVD around 5:30pm. Although it was quite busy, there was only a 15 minute wait for a mani-pedi. Lucky of me, there was a free upgrade to a "deluxe" pedi that day. This included some kind of mud-masque for your feet and salt scrub. Heavenly. For the first time before getting the service I did not even check the price list, so to my surprise a really pleasant and nicely done mani/pedi shook out to $40. Now I'm not sure I would make the drive for my next nail-job, but if you're out in the West Suburbs it's worth a try. read more

I love Twin City Nails, the service is on par every time. Everyone in there is friendly, the space is nice and there is a really good color selection. I used to go every 2 weeks for a pedicure here. Unfortunately I moved away from the area and now sometimes go to a place closer to me for convenience/time purposes. However, if I had my choice and no scheduling conflicts, I would come here every time. The nail technicians are great here. Not only are they friendly and talkative, unlike some nail places with the awkward silence, they do a great job for a good price. I'm pretty particular about my pedicures. I'm not too good to my feet; I wear a lot of heels and sandals. I like my pedicures to involve some pretty intense callus removal and careful cuticle shaping. Twin City Nails always delivers. Plus, who doesn't like hot towel wraps included in spa pedicures?! I would recommend twin city nails to anyone looking for a quality place with good prices. read more

I've tried other nail salons in the twin cities. Tina and her staff are the best. I've been coming here for 10 years and no matter how many time I stray I always come back. $35.00 for a pink and white fill $35.00 for the deluxe pedi $25.00 for a pink fill $20.00 for a standard fill Best Pink and Whites ever. Pink powder, not tip or pained on. Thanks for being the best Tina :) read more

I love this salon. It is simple and every person has done an excellent job when I have gotten a gel manicure. They accommodate walk-ins but I would recommend making an appointment to relieve the wait time. Mindy and Tracy are so nice and do a stellar job. A French gel manicure is $35 and lasts nearly 3 weeks without any chipping. I will miss this place when I move out of the Twin Cities area! read more

I honestly can't imagine getting my nails done anywhere else...and I live in BLAINE! I've been here on three different occassions: two pedicures and three sets of gel nails. Anyone who's had gel nails done understands just how important the treatment of your cuticles is to the success of the process. I've peeled off many-a gel set, including the ones done for my wedding. (We won't go there.) Twin City does an exceptional job every time and you get the same level of quality from any of the techs. I highly recommend making an appointment, as their West End locale keeps them pretty busy 24-7. This place is exceptional and is the ONLY place I go to get my nails did. read more

We got our nails done here this past Friday and Jade did a good job. It's Monday and I still have no chips. I would've given more stars but I originally went in for a polish change. She took me to the pedicure chair and wanted me to take off my shoes and I said no, I just need a polish change on my hands. Instead of giving me a polish change, I got a manicure - which I didn't want because I had a manicure about 10 days before and didn't need the whole enchilada again. Communication isn't their strongest point, but she squeezed me in on a busy Friday afternoon, did a nice job on my nails and got me in and out in about 20 minutes. read more

I will gladly pay $40 for a mani/pedi. Walked in and was helped right away. Large selection of polish colors. The store was clean and organized. Make sure to bring cash for a tip! I will definitely be back. read more

Twin City Nails - Basic manicure :) - Nail Salons Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Hands down, favorite place to treat myself to a mani/pedi. Over the years, I have gone to nearly every nail tech on staff and have always left happy. In the past, I have paid two times as much for a mani/pedi that had failed in comparison. Hint: My favs are either Tracy or Alisha read more

$60 for fake tips and gel. Well my left thumb is about 4 mm shorter then my right thumb. None of the nails were shaped correctly. Or she really did not do that until I mentioned that they all look different, but she was not able to correctly shape them. It was the fastest and the most unprofessional gel fil Ive had experienced in my life. Granted, Ive only done it about a dozen of times, this was absolutely the worst. I do not know the name of the person who did this to me, she did not introduce herself. The shop was pretty busy and it feels a bit crambped in there. They do have a good selection of colors. Never again. read more

I have been going here for over 6 years! I have never been disappointed in the quality of my pedicure or manicure. Best to call ahead for an appointment for the next day at least. I give it all five stars! read more

Just left this salon today and am happy to give them 5 stars! Excellent work. My gel mani is perfect...very clean lines and cuticles! Love love love!!! Huge selection of Gelish, OPI, Cuccio, etc. of gel polishes. I'm from out of town but I will make sure to stop here for nails when I'm around...better than a lot of places near me, in Orange County, CA! read more

This past week was my 3rd visit. The first two times were walk in, this most recent time was with an appointment. All three times had no wait even though the place was packed. Each time I've had a gel manicure and I added a regular pedicure on my most recent visit. This is a no frills salon but they do beautiful work that is well worth the price. NOTE: they only allow tips in cash and there is not an ATM. read more

An appointment making accident had me going to Twin City nails for the first time. Thanks to my sister in law for a fun afternoon. This is probably the tightest spaced nail salon I have ever been in. The colors are located in the middle between the pedicure chairs and the manicure tables. Honestly it's kind of a mess. The fact that they still get 3 stars even after giving my sister in law cold pedicure soaking water is a testament to how good the rest of the time went. I was asked how long I wanted my toe nails and when I said as short as possible she did her best to cut and file them short without causing pain. I usually cut my toe nails so short that it hurts to wear shoes the first time so this is a really good job to get em short to my liking! She also asked how long I wanted my finger nails and what shape. Unlike other experiences I've had in the past this information was actually used on my hand and they look so great. they are well shaped and a good length. I would happily go there again in the future! read more

This place is great!! They have the really nice scrub for pedicures at no extra charge. Reasonable prices and great/ friendly staff. Make sure you bring cash for tips because you can't add it on a card but that is normal for most places. They are very quick and accurate. I work at a labor intensive job and I'm on my feet all day. My feet look and feel amazing after I come here! read more

My go to nail salon for gel mani/pedi , not a luxurious salon but the techs here are so good, been going for 5+ years

Terrible manicure. Tech cut me and drew blood. Nail polish all over my cuticles, which she tried to remove by sanding it down and cutting with cuticle nippers- both techniques hurt. I will never go back. read more

I really like this place! They have tons of colors for gel manicures and they last for 3 weeks and the prices are really reasonable! The pedicures are super relaxing and they do a foot mask and wipe it off with hot towels, it's such a nice added bonus that you don't get from other salons. read more

I just relocated from SLP and used TC nails for the 18 months I lived there. I tried 3 salons prior to TC nails and finally settled on them. They had the best price and the best nails. Jade does a wonderful job on learning your preferences and she aims to please. I will miss the ladies there, especially Jade, and recommend their services. It's best if you call in advance and book a time. I've seen them turn people away over and over because there wEre no time slots. read more

My nail technician was very good and spent a lot of time on the massage part which anyone would love!! She also spoke very good English so I am unsure what the others have posted about a language barrier. The massage chairs gave a perfect massage and they has tons of color choices which is always appreciated! read more
