Stopped in hoping they could get me in for a fill and a pedicure, they were and the services were exceptional. I'm not sure who did my pedicure but he did a great job. I get pedicures every few weeks so I know a good pedicure when I get one lol, and my feet were so soft and my toe nails looked beautiful. Mary did my fill and she actually gave me the nails I asked for a short soft almond shape and she delivered. The saloon was clean and had a spa feel. read more

Waited well over 2 hours to get one nail fixed , I first arrive and he told me a 45 min wait and I said that's fine I'll go upstairs to celebrity tanning . Came back down 30 mins later sat in the waiting line that was pretty packed , I sat and waited and notice so many other ppl I didn't see when I first arrived come in and get seen before me . I went to the front desk and asked how much longer seeing how I've been here well over an hour in a half he looked shocked when my name was on the list let alone way before everybody else that he was calling to be seen . Then the lady who fixed my nail I asked if she could do it like the other one that was not broken she said no it's gonna take too long and that she has an appointment, like I didn't have things to do when I was waiting for 2 hours for one nail to be fixed ! And still tipped 10$ on HORRIBLE SERVICE.. ladies I advise you don't go here !!especially after reading all the other yelp reviews after this incident . Go to element nail bar in Phoenix and ask to see "phan" u can see his work on my yelp reviews I've left for him and the service there is AMAZING AND ACTUALLY PROFESSIONAL!! They have wine and drinks also and treat you like an actual paying important client unlike UNI NAILS.. read more

As always, I walked in without appointment and even tho they were busy I was able to be seen within just a few minutes. Helen and Nikki worked with me to choose a special design that I adore. Attention to detail is always exquisite and everyone is always kind, patient, and helpful. read more

I called Uni Nails ahead of time to see if I could get one of my nails fixed that had broke. The man told me I didn't need an appointment and to just walk in around 4:45 to get it fixed. I took an uber to get to the salon which cost me money just to have the same man tell me they didn't have time to fix my one nail anymore and to come back tomorrow. Even though I walked in at 4:45 like he told me. What a waste of time and money to get here. Beware to all customers, there's a reason for the bad star ratings here at this solan. read more

Toni - was helping do my nails, he did my fill and I asked for a gradient style- he only used two colors and did my nails 50/50 . Then he had another client come in and when I asked him to reshape them he said "no sorry I have another client" then gave me the receipt and did not fix it. I had to ask another associate to help fix it - she was really nice and helped fix it but had to re-do three of the nails he did and the color is still completely 50/50. Not the service or etiquette I deserved. He didn't cut my nails, cut cuticles, or use any oil at all just changed it half-assed and told me next customer. read more

I got an acrylic nail removal and gel, polish toes and a gel manicure and it was so painful. The lady cut me twice on my toes and my fingernails. Not impressed with the service or the quality and it was not worth $100! read more

Not my usual place, came with a friend. Let the artist know my nails are thin severeral times when i first sat down, when she removed the dip polish she used the drill and made my nails so much thinner, like paper thin! I kept asking her not to and saying the drill was getting hot, she left my nails filed so uneven and on an angle... polish over the cuticles... this was the worst decision I made to come here instead of my usually salon in Mesa... read more

Thank you Eric for the most thorough, pain-free gel-x removal! The space was extremely clean and nice. Definitely recommend!

Sadly wasn't impressed. Wanted to try out a nail place and came for a pedicure and acrylic fill. I called to push my appointment back 30 minutes because I was running home late from work, and she sounded very annoyed. I get it was 5:30, but they had time left before closing at 7. I showed up a little bit before my appointment and got a pedicure. It was a great job. My fill was rushed and the whole time the employee seemed she was just mad she was still working while people left. She filed my nails unevenly and it has been two days and the paint has already chipped on two fingers. I left at 6:20 so it wasn't evening closing time when I was done, but I felt very unwanted. I wouldn't go back. read more

Quality, vibe, and service are usually great! I have tried many different places and they are the best ones for me.

Not the best, I got dip with tips which should last but they didn't last more than 2 weeks. I spent at least 80 or more because more just on a manicure. Because at least three of my nails broke went back multiple times just to fix one set. Waste of money. They were just poorly done. The topcoat came off and I had white nails so it caused the actual nail to get dirty and look gross. I only went to this nail salon because it's closer to campus but next time I will try Julies nails or any other nail salon in Tempe. I wish I still had the pictures, but the shape of the nail was not what I asked for and the looks of all the nails were not consistent so it didn't look very nice. I just don't want people spending their hard earned money on mediocre service. read more

I liked that this was close to campus, but that's about the only thing I liked. First time I went I had an appointment but was ignored over walk ins. My acrylics did not have a uniform shape and I had to file and fix that myself at home. I gave them another shot today and that was a bad mistake. I got a gel manicure and asked for a simple cross design on my ring finger, which she said she could do easily (I even showed her a picture). The first problem was that she did not do enough coats and my nail tips where the change color were visible through the polish. The second problem was that the crosses looked like they were drawn by kindergarteners with sharpie on my nails. The third issue was that I was charged $45 and sent on my way without any chance to say that they were good or anything. It was not even busy but the staff rushes you every time. Overall, I would not recommend coming here. $45 and an hour down the drain for me to have to find another salon to fix these for me. read more

I just picked up my wife from her appointment, she's French, but speaks great English and is still learning. The employees were extremely rude, and on top of that they did a terrible job. If I could give 0 stars I would. Bad service, bad vibe, rude and now my wife's nails we'll be re done when return to a competent nail salon back in California. read more

I came in for an appointment & was told the wait time was 15 minutes. After 15 minutes I was seated for my pedicure and I waited 38 minutes before someone actually came to help me. The massage was great, I don't want to leave that part out. When cutting the cuticle around my toe the gentleman cut me so badly that around my big toe was throbbing in pain and he applied alcohol. The gel on my toes that he injured look horrible. When I pointed out the gel to the tech he said "i can fix it but it's going to hurt you". Then he cut one of my other toenails down so far that my toe was bleeding & I still can't put on a close toed shoe. I can barely step on my foot without striking pain! read more

I walked into this business last year around Christmas time. I had been contemplating getting acrylics because I have never had them before... as a walk in I was sat at Jeanie's (think I may have spelled that wrong) table. This woman has transformed my opinion on nails all together! She has given me nothing but quality service and is on point and copies ideas to a T! Sad thing is she's stuck with me lol I've been in AZ 9 yrs and just now found a wonderful Nail Tech! Uni is lucky to have her. read more

First of all, I guess I should've looked at the yelp reviews before I even came in here. I can't vouch for everyone else was here, but my technician was horrible. Her name is Vy. I had a manicure before I left Los Angeles, but my nail polish started chipping. All I wanted was a polish change. I got more red nail polish on my skin, then on my nails when I asked you to correct and clean it up she said oh you should've gotten a manicure. Ridiculous! She also use the drill to take off a layer of nail, but didn't bother changing the bit. read more

I've never left a review ever in my life but i went to this place today to get my acrylic nails taken off today. I went in thinking they would put aluminum and rubbing alcohol like most nail places do but she started tearing them off of my actual nails. My nails feel extremely damaged and sore. I asked her repeatedly to change the way she was doing her job but she continued. I do not recommend coming here at all. They seemed to lack common knowledge in general. read more

I've been coming here for the last 9 months...and unfortunately I feel that the quality has declined. I've been leaving with very sticky feet/legs and I'm not sure what it is. The last time I went for a pedicure, I left with more dry/rough parts on my feet than I came in with. I feel that I'm not getting the appropriate tending when I come in for a service. The place is always filled with people (probably due to the vicinity of ASU), and they seemed happy. I can understand one not-so-good experience, but my last few have been the same experience and it's been very unfortunate. read more

DO NOT COME TO THIS NAIL SALON!!! I recently moved to Tempe very close to this salon and it looked very nice and trendy so I decided to try it out. I made an appointment and ended up waiting 30 minutes after my scheduled appointment to be serviced. As my nail tech was shaping my nails she cut my skin twice on two different fingers. I let it go because I understand things happen but then when my nails were finished they were extremely uneven and had gel paint on the underneath part of the acrylic. I then got a basic gel pedicure. The paint was done well but I was very unsatisfied when my calluses were not completed to any persons liking let alone my own... dirt left on the bottoms of my feet! I can do it myself but I don't pay $35 for me to have to fix it myself because of plain laziness. I hate to say it but I will be insecure to even go out in public with this disappointing service received by uni nails. Hopefully no body asks me how much I paid because I'm embarrassed to say based off the bad set of nails I got. read more

I have been coming to Uni Nails since I started college in 2016. I've since moved 25 mins away, but I will always travel for this place! The salon is beautifully decorated and a great place to relax. They do dip manicures and have a huge selection of colors for gel, dip and SNS. They accept walk ins, but I recommend making an appointment so you don't have to wait. I love this place and the nail techs are great! read more

Had two experiences here. Both no good. First time the nail tech continually filed my skin and it felt like my finger was on fire and ignored my winces and asking to stop. The shape was not what i asked at all but i excused the experience as that was only one nail tech there out of the many. I went again about a week ago and it was even worse! It was like the nail tech has never done acrylic before! She didn't file off the old acrylic and left some old color. She failed to put little to any new acrylic on my nails. One week later = 5 nails snapped in half. Horrible experience overall and multiple techs lack of experience results in taking my business elsewhere. read more

I absolutely love this place!!! Very very friendly staff, my nails came out absolutely amazing, they have a good variety of colors and nice color options. Prices are a plus, very good prices! Highly recommend Katrina, she's a great nail tech and very friendly! read more

Do NOT patronize this nail salon! They made my daughter wait 90 minutes to start appointment, then ripped dipped nails off instead of soaking. They charged her $15 more than posted price for a full set (dipping)--only had her pay it to get out of there fast! They recognized a college student & took advantage of her. HORRIBLE experience. HORRIBLE business. read more

The staff was super nice, the wait time was a tad excessive but I didn't mind. I enjoyed the service and my nails and toes look great for the most part, however, I was blown away when the total was 120. And all that money and they hardly touched my cuticles. read more

I have been coming here for over a year now but this will be my last visit. I came in with my toes painted and no problems wanting a simple pedicure and my eyebrows done. I left with a bloody toe and in pain. I was getting a pedicure when she cut me. She explained it was a small cut. This small cut would end up bleeding for a long time and require me to change bandaids, twice before I even got to leave (my friend got a pedicure). After talking in her native tongue to severally other works she explained to me that it was MY FAULT that she cut me and then she decided to apologize. She then was laughing around with another technician while still trying to get my toe to stop bleeding. Not paying much attention to me as an individual. Eventually, she put a bandaid on (with help from the boss of the location) and was going to move onto the next toe. At this point I said I did not want a pedicure anymore. She began to talk to all the workers again and laugh. (My friends nail tech watched the entire thing and possibly told her what to do but never stepped in when she couldn't figure it out) I then sit for a few minutes with no word from anyone while my friend finishes up. Meanwhile, my tech has already moved on, cleaned up and began working on someone else. Then the boss (she normally does my eyebrows) asked if i wanted my eyebrows done. I said no. (I prefer to walk out with at least two eyebrows on my head). She said she would give me a gift card for another pedicure as the other nail technician giggled. I will not be back and recommend you find a different location where the technicians at least are polite! read more

So I'm updating my review because I do want to say that Nu and Na are amazing. They do such good work. I'm giving a 2 star rating for the owners. I come every 2-3 weeks and make an appt every time. Last week I made an appt but I had to cancel because of a work situation. I called to reschedule and the man at the desk was very rude to me. Every time I come even though I make an appt; they make me wait 30-45 min and I've never said anything. So this time he said you can come but you'll have to wait when I tried to make an appt. So I will no longer be coming because clearly they don't value returning customers. It's a shame because I really did love the work those two girls do. read more

I used to frequent this nail salon as a college student 4-8 years ago and the techs were amazing! Finally came back today and this place is nothing like it used to be. Upon arrival, I was told the wait would be 30-45 minutes. It was 90 minutes. I was called over to a station as the previous guest was getting up and it was clear to me nothing had been sanitized- during a pandemic no less. There were literally tips and fingernail clippings from the previous client. I mentioned that to my tech and she laughed and put another washcloth over them.. gross. Later, she mixed the dip powder with the utensil she just used to clean under my fingernails.. so now whatever was under my nails is in that SNS powder for the next client. I should've left but I was in shock. My nails ended up looking terrible. The lengths are completely uneven and the shapes are inconsistent. Long wait times, unsanitary conditions, and a bad final result. If you hope to have a different experience, at least avoid table 5. read more

I read the bad reviews and ignored and tried anyways...This is worst nail place on planet earth. Super unsanitary, nothing is cleaned and instruments reused. They ground off my gel nails with a drill and didn't soak them off. The put my entire hand in a bowl of cuticle remover until the pads of my hand were peeling off. The painting may have as well been preformed blind folded, the outcome would have been better. My nails are now breaking off to the quick and bleeding because I have no nail density left from the grinder they used to destroy my nail bed. This place should be shut down. read more

Missed this place. It was the best. Everybody was always nice and Michael took care of me as my mani pedicurist. SNS to the perfection.

I had a great first experience here! My nail tech, Jessie, was very detailed and took her time. She took extra precautions to ensure my fill would blend well and my pre-existing acrylics didn't lift.

I really like this place for my pedicures, they always do a good job and they are pretty inexpensive. I've gotten my nails done here a few times but I'm extremely picky and didn't quite like the thickness of my gel polish or SNS but like I said I'm super picky. There is one thing that really bothers me though, that I see consistently and that's the nail artists not changing their gloves when changing clients on pedicures. I've seen it happen about 3 or 4 times and to my sister once who actually ended getting a little foot rash. I've also seen a nail artist go from doing a pedicure with gloves on to switching to helping a manicure with those same gloves. Also, the tools they use do not come out of a package and do not come out of the sterilization bath. So, I'd just like that to change and then I would be more than willing to give this place 5 stars! read more
