I visited on a Wednesday for a scheduled pedicure appointment with a friend and impressed by the warm welcome and vast polish selection. The salon boasts hundreds of polish colors, neatly organized on the east wall in a gorgeous rainbow array, featuring top brands like DND, OPI and Essie. You're sure to find the perfect shade and shimmer for your fingers or toes! The salon's ambiance is clean, cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxing pampering session with friends and features 6 pedicure chairs and 6 nail stations. There are three pedicure options to choose from of which I opted for the "Deluxe Pedicure", priced at $47, though the "Volcano Spa" option was very tempting with the 7 scent varieties available. Holly and Van were our nail technicians; there are 4 total technicians at this salon. My pedicure from Van was impeccable; the best part was the mask with hot towel followed by the warm stone massage. I know I will feel relaxed for days!

I don't normally make posts like this, but I had to give a huge shoutout to Hawaii Nails…read more I went in to get my nails done with my grandma and not only did they do an amazing job, but what really stood out was how kind and patient they were with my grandma. She has dementia, and they treated her with so much compassion, respect, and understanding the entire time. They took their time, stayed calm, and made sure she felt comfortable every step of the way. That means more to me than I can even put into words. It's not just about great nails-- it's about how they treat people, and they truly went above and beyond for her.

This week, I had made some (100% socially-distant!!) travel plans and wanted to look a little special. Being new to Des Moines, I didn't have any idea on where to go, and chose Art of Nails mostly on a whim. Last minute scheduling was a breeze, and I was able to get in right away. Alec gave me a perfect, crisp white pedicure, and his father/salon owner Billy gave me the most immaculate French tip manicure I've ever seen. It was a lengthy process, which I appreciated - to me, it showed how much he cared about the work (especially since it was around closing time and it would have been easy for him to simply rush me out.) I was nervous about the base color, as most of the images I had seen online seemed too pink to be a true nude on my brown skin, but Billy helped me find an almost exact nude color that I'll definitely be using again in the future. Together, we worked out the shape and style of manicure that would look best from the inspired pictures I had found on Pinterest and I couldn't be happier with the finished result. Overall, both gentleman were polite, clean, and incredibly professional, and I loved the cozy vibe of the salon itself. I'll be back again in the future!

It wasn't until my nails were completed that i had an issue. I asked for a black french tip, and this was one of the worst ones i've ever gotten.

The husband and wife owners worked on us and kept us entertained when great conversation the whole time. If you need a great place to get your nails done in a clean and relaxing environment, go here!! Highly recommended. The only compliant is I wish I lived closer.

I absolutely love this place!…read more It's really clean. Every time I'm there they've been playing good music quietly and have those social media cooking videos on the TVs, so it's a relaxing environment. I'm satisfied with the way my nails look after the service. My only small complaint is that when they do my finger nails, sometimes I wish they would get a little closer to my nail bed. It makes them look like they grow out faster because they already start with a gap that's around 1 millimeter (pictured). That said, the prices are reasonable, so I don't mind going back for refills a day or two sooner.

I'm not sure why this place does not have better reviews--I have been getting my nails done here…read moreregularly for more than a year now and I have had nothing but good experiences. For reference, I always get a dip manicure and gel pedicure. Here is what I like: - I make an appointment (usually 1-3 days ahead of time). I show up and they start working on my nails right away. No waiting. - They offer complimentary beverage service. - They have an INCREDIBLE selection of colors to choose from. - My nails always look fire and always hold up very well. - The nail techs always get my nails done in a timely fashion. If I am getting both services done, I am usually out of there in 1.5-2 hours. If I am getting one service done, it's usually about 45 minutes.   The only thing that I wish they could do is work on my fingers and toes at the same time. I'm all about efficiency and as much as I would love to just unwind and sit in the nail salon for hours at a time, the reality is I usually need to get in and out of there as quickly as possible. Other than that, this place is great. I cannot recommend Tipsy Nails enough! Definitely the best nail salon I've been to in the Des Moines metro.
