I had a honey moon pedi and a dip mani . GIA , was a perfectionist ! If I could give more stars I would ! The best pedi and dip I ever had. I will definitely return . read more

Came here just after Valentine's Day.. VERY clean, open layout, offer many services. Although they are a little pricey, you get what you pay for.. it's worth it. You will be here for a decent amount of time- so plan accordingly..I recommend making an appointment so you don't have to wait before hand. read more

First, let me tell you this is the cleanest nail salon I've ever been to. Next, the staff is AMAZING!! Danny is my tech by choice. He is a true perfectionist. My mani-pedi is always perfect. Ava (the owner) is a jack of all trades, but for the eyebrows-no body better. read more

VIP in North Providence is the best!! Everyone there is friendly and do a great job. The hours are great and open every day makes it easy to schedule an appointment. I find it better to have an appointment than to "walk in." Also, the facility is very clean!! Special kudos to Danny!! He does a superb job and takes pride in his work. I will continue to go to VIP in North Providence!! read more

got a regular french tip acrylic set and it was 105, nails weren't bad but they were not $105 worth very clean but 100 is crazy

My girlfriend and I were able to call the day before for an appointment for 2 gel pedicures on a Saturday at 9am. They opened up promptly at 9 and we were seated as soon as we decided upon our colors after checking in. Alice provided me with my pedicure and she was attentive, detail-oriented and patient. The massage she gave me was great! I really enjoyed the overall experience. The final results aren't the best I've had but I'm still happy with pedicure. The prices were ok. The classic pedicure started at 35. I choose the organic spa pedicure which was 65 but came out to $85 with gel polish. I would try this location out again. read more

I've had some great mani pedis here but there's one man that is awful. It's frustrating to spend time and money just to think I should have done it myself. Pedi is painted on my skin. Nails are not filed square or even, and aren't smooth. Won't be back. read more

I've been getting my gel manicures done here recently and the quality of the manicures has been superb. My mom tipped me off about this place, as it is where she gets her dip manicures with extensions. They last her about a month. The salon is spotless and spacious. Even on Saturdays at peak hours seems to have space to fit in a walk-in client. The nail techs are friendly and do a fantastic job. They always do 3 layers of color, which is a green flag in my book! My gels last about two weeks without a chip, and can go even a third before needing to go back in. Pricing is comparable to other salons in the area. My gels are about $35. I do not believe they charge extra for removal of prior gels. The salon doesn't give the perks that some other ones do (free paraffin, massage) but the durability of the manis and cleanliness of the shop far supersede the frills of other salons where my nails chip quickly. read more

I enjoy coming to VIP Nails! I am always greeted at the door with a warm welcome and a kind nudge to pick a color. The staff is very patient while you pick a color - especially with me being as indecisive as I am. The prices are a bit high, however, the honeymoon pedicure is one of the best pedicures I've ever had. The staff works magic with their hands when they massage you during this pedicure. They always ask if there's anything they can get me. I got the dip manicure today for the first time by Jerry and it was the best manicure I've ever gotten. He took his time and has such a keen eye to details! I walk out of VIP feeling like I had a small pause from life! I highly recommend this establishment! read more

It was Labor Day and I was in need of a manicure/pedicure and luckily they were open. It was my first time going and they were able to take me quickly. They had an overwhelming selection of polishes to choose from but I can PROMISE you they have the right color for you! Even with the cheapest package (the classic package) you still feel like you're given the VIP treatment. Ask for Danny because he's very personable and has a great sense of humor! read more

Amazing nail salon. I'm a regular customer. Nails always come out perfect and last 2 weeks. Ava is always willing to squeeze me in while working the desk. 10/10 read more

I have been coming to VIP for some time now and just getting around to this review. I started out primarily getting pedicures and discovered that gel manicures actually keep me from biting my cuticles so I've been doing more of those. They are very busy in the weekends so unless you go first thing when they open or towards the end of the day, you will more than likely wait a bit - but they will never tell you that they always say 5 minutes even if you look around and every chair is filled...magic I guess haha. The pedicures are good, everything looks clean and they have a selection of pedicure levels to choose from - note, if you get the very basic they will try to talk you into one above it. I've only done the first two on the list. The gel manicures are great and they have a good collection of colors; however, depending upon how you get some explanation may be necessary in describing detail you might like. I had someone one time who didn't quite understand what I meant by glitter ombré or fading out so any Pinterest or googled photos help bridge that gap. I had Kimmy today and have had her before and love her attention to detail and think she does a great job. You also get a complimentary 3 minute massage from a gentleman who I presume does the massage services and he does offer lengthier massages 10+ minutes at a charge with no need to move from where you are getting nails done. Also, note they do take cards but do not allow tipping on them so bring some cash for tips otherwise there's an ATM and you might be subject to whatever ATM and bank charges you would normally get. read more

I usually love this salon, and I look forward to going when I do. However, sometimes the technicians can have a bit of an attitude- especially when I decline the upsells. Today, I was uncomfortable the whole time as my technician refused to smile and seemed annoyed the whole time. It was disappointing, and is making me rethink going back. She could have had a bad day, but they had just opened and every other tech seemed pleasant. Even when I gave her her tip (which was more than she deserved, but I understand the importance of tips in that industry), she barely acknowledged me. read more

fire kim. she messed up my nails and when i asked if she could fix it she just put the file on it and that's not even what i asked her to do. the vibe was off when i walked in they all stared at me and didn't ask what i was waiting for and i had an appointment for 1:30 and didn't get sat until 1:50 and she didn't start until 2:00. read more

DO NOT GO HERE! Dip powder nails chipped after 2 days, went back to have them fixed, they chipped again!!! I was cut while they were filing too hard, with the electric file he did it too much so my nails are paper thin. Guy that comes around to give everyone a back massage, he smelt bad of cigarette smoke. Not a calming environment with club music playing (ex: Pony by Ginuwine was playing) read more

Got my nails done here a couple months ago because it's the closest salon to home. I had a great experience in December and my nails looked pretty for nearly a month. I went back the end of January, and this time my manicure was chipped and awful looking after less than two weeks! Plus, they cut deep into one of my cuticles and made me bleed. I'll go back to Warwick. Better quality for the same price! read more

The service, the environment, the quality and the entire staff, from the front door to cashing out, all 5 stars +! I've been going there for at least 10 years and there is no place else I ever go if I can avoid it. I moved an hour away and still drove there. I moved back to RI and have to brave the bridge, but I do it and try to plan accordingly. I was there a couple of days ago and got the pedicure with the longest foot massage possible and a shoulder massage, with Jake, all of it was perfection! I always enjoy the music choices and the vibe. It's a little pricier than some other places, but I do believe that you get what you pay for. I recently read about some issues, and it made me more determined to support them and all the staff. 100% my go to! read more

Not a good experience.. Could not even see the polish on my toes and when I asked for another coat she said it's too much Then I start my hands (with a different pink) and she misses cuticles and could not match the correct shape of my nail Some nails look complete different than others, some over filed, some not enough, some Crooked and she missed a lot of cuticle and extra hang nails... Very disappointed to say the least. read more

Not to happy with my visit here. I went for a gel manicure and regular pedicure. They sat me down at one of the pedicure booths but didn't tell me there would be a wait or for how long. Ok fine, whatever! This is what bothers me...as my feet are soaking, the assistant decided she wanted to fix the faucet. She turns the water back on and now I am sprayed with water and sit on this water while I'm getting my feet done; but mistakes happen so I let it go. The lady doing my feet is cutting my cuticles and ends up cutting me in the process. Not a good feeling having your skin clipped off and someone putting alcohol on it, just before applying nail polish, which also contains alcohol, ouch!!! The manicure was okay, not one of my favorites though. I just hope the polish lasts 2 weeks like it's supposed to. Based on my experience though, I wanted to give them a one star. The extra star is because the lady doing my nails was really nice and I could tell she felt bad about the water and cutting incident. She had a nice sense of humor. Unfortunately, I will not be returning to that place. read more

I just had one of the worst experiences at VIP with Jake. He was so quick to finish my gel manicure he ripped the skin off off 3 of my fingers, blood kept coming out. He also didn't ask me a shape for my nails, when I asked for them to be shorter he clipped only a few of them leaving the others long. When I asked for them all to be clipped he laughed at me. All of my nails were different lengths, uneven, and different shapes. He rushed through painting them I had to rub paint off my fingers. He didn't put my nails under the light enough. And from this photo there is already an air bubble forming after I just spent an hour at your nail salon getting them done. I am so disappointed in my experience and now will need to come back to get this nail redone. I am also sure they will not last long because they were under the light for not even a full cycle of the light being on. NOT happy. read more

After leaving a disappointing pedicure appointment up the street, I walked into VIP nails, furious and on a mission: to fix my toes. Eric literally saved my feet. The person who worked on my feet prior to him cut them without asking and they were cringe worthy short. Eric fixed that by adding nail extensions in literally 10 minutes. I have been coming since the new year and have nothing but great things to say. The establishment is clean, has friendly staff and loads of different services that they provide. Your basic pedicure makes you feel like a completely different person after. I'm so happy I found this nail tech. He has been nothing short than AMAZING! read more

I am never going back to VIP nails in North Providence. I have been time and time again trying to give them second chances and every time it just keeps getting worse. This last time I got a pedicure and a manicure I had an appointment and had to wait over 25 minutes in the pedicure chair. Then I decided to do a gel manicure the pictures below features a gel manicure done five days ago. Gel manicures are supposed to last two weeks sometimes more I am so disappointed with this place they treat you like a meat market quick in and quick Out. They just want as many customers as they can fit in it's really all about the dollar bill here and not the customers satisfaction or experience. When I want to go to a nail salon I want to feel like I am being pampered not being rushed. read more

Will never go back. I have been several times without a problem however today I was ripped off. I had a routine pedicure and less than routine. Instead of focusing on my feet (that is what a pedicure is all about) she put a little lotion on my legs and messaged legs for a minute or two but never touched feet. Then it came to the mani. She did not have to file my nails because I keep them very short. I wanted my cuticles snipped and just a clear coat of polish. Instead of soaking nails before cutting cuticles she put my fingers in a bowl for less than 1 minute after she trimmed my cuticles. She stood up while applying clear coat like she was on the run. I was charged $50.00 for a half hour of treatment. I am sorry I left a tip. My tip to everyone STAY AWAY read more

I will not be going back. I had a scheduled appointment and when I wen in they were busy so I sat down until someone was available. Someone came in about 15 minutes after me and was taken right away so I asked a worker why was she taken right away and I'm still waiting and the worker told me the client had an appointment with a certain technician. Someone else came in and was taken right away and I saw the worker I complained to talking in Chinese to someone probably saying to take me next because he kept looking at me. I normally don't pull the race card but I am Spanish and those 2 women that jumped ahead of me were white, I felt so discriminated. read more

They overbook and you are made to feel like an inconvenience, totally takes away from the relaxing experience you would want at a salon. Also, I waited so long for a pedicure that once I was up I decided to just do a polish change. I think my decision to do less aggravated my tech, he was rude and seemed annoyed when I asked him to trim my nails short. I actually had the same tech last time I came and he was equally as rude this time, Bo. I won't be returning, thought I would have a better experience, unfortunately it's poorly run, more concerned with taking in as many clients as possible, less concerned with the quality and overall experience for the customer. read more

I never post reviews but I just want to make sure no one else gets a dip manicure here. After one day almost every single one is cracked. The service was awful. My nails were long and relatively strong and they were buffed soooo thin and filed so short. DONT GO HERE!!! read more

If I had to describe this place in three words they would be: welcoming, clean, and meticulous! Come here if you want luxurious spa treatment at an affordable price! I've gotten three pedicures, and five gel manicures here. All experiences have been wonderful. My favorite part is the massage with a choice of essential oils (the eucalyptus is my favorite but my sister always gets lavender). You can also get paraffin wax for a little bit extra -I've gotten it a few times and it feels really good afterwards. Unfortunately I've found that their gel manicures don't last quite as long as other places. VIP is so busy that they push you along pretty quickly. Today I got a full gel manicure in under 15 minutes! This might be nice if you're in a rush but it almost certainly means you're losing out on quality. read more

I must say being greeted right at the door and no wait was amazing. Seems like everyone was so nice and caring and actually enjoy what they did. I got a pedicure and that cost 30.00 for a couple second massage and a regular pedicure process. They adding a minute rock stone touch. I think the 30.00 was a reasonable amount. Now to the nails. I came in knowing exactly what I wanted. Which would include a full set and like 10 baby small stones. The guy doing my nails was nice , we laughed a few times. And the massage while doing my nails was a nice touch. My nails came out beautiful don't get me wrong but I'm sorry my nails weren't that good for the price they charged. THEY CHARGED ME 65.00 JUST FOR MY NAILS! What in gods name ? I don't know how they came up with that price I just wanted to leave I was so furious. So my nails costed 65.00 and the pedicure was 30.00 so I spent 105.00 including tip. The pretty decor isn't worth the rip off they charge here. read more

Got them done Friday, my pointer finger spilt open like this that night. Saturday went to fix it , they did. Now it's Sunday and that same finger along with the one on the right hand side is cracked. I spend a lot of money here every time I get them done and this is very unprofessional & disappointing. Along with that the phone is ALWAYS on busy tone so if any problems occur you can't get in touch. read more

While my nails ended up looking okay, they ended up being shorter than what I wanted ( I had asked for my nails not to be trimmed but they were trimmed anyways). Additionally, when setting up for my pedicure the woman accidentally set off the pedicure hose. This poor experience ended up soaking my pants and part of my shirt and hair. Once I was soaked, the women who worked there kept drying me off when I kept asking to do it myself because I did not want to be touched. I was not offered a discount and was overall unhappy with my experience. read more

This place does a beautiful job but they split you up between multiple people the whole time and then at the end have the audacity to ask if you're tipping each person who worked on you... will not be back. Was a long time customer with my mother and that was extremely rude and unprofessional. I've never had someone 1. Assume I was tipping and then 2. Ask me to tip 3 different people because they took off my old nail polish. The woman I was tipping was the one who did everything for me and then the other woman only added polish. Ava the woman always running the show in front was extremely rude and unprofessional. read more

Some of the procedures done by the techs are great, others techs are not good at all. You get whoever is available, it's all business and up-selling I've been twice, I will find a pedicure by someone more personable. read more

I shouldn't have strayed from Happy Nails. I heard good things about VIP and wanted to check it out. My gel mani was done and I wanted to get it removed. VIP doesn't just remove polish, so I decided to get another full gel mani. The place is beautiful and seems very clean, that's for sure. I guess I felt that my technician didn't care that I was there. I wasn't really greeted by her, I was never offered anything to drink, she gave me a completely half-assed hand massage, while just looking at what other people were doing.I felt like an afterthought. Oh well, that happens, but for $30, I would expect a LITTLE more service. The back massage was fine. My biggest peeve is that she didn't paint all the way to my cuticle. As you can see in the photo, my nails look like they have a week of growth and I just got the mani today. Oh well. Like I said, I shouldn't have strayed! read more

For almost a year now (since moving to RI) I have been hesitating and dreading finding a new nail salon in the area. I found VIP Nails I called on a Friday morning and they were able to fit me in at my desired time. I arrived 15mins early to pick my colors [I get a gel manicure and regular polish pedicure -- it takes me a while to match a regular polish (toes) to my gel color of choice (hands)] The staff insisted they could help match me and delivered! Both my mani and pedi were immaculate! I'm very particular and I appreciate the close attention and detail Danny showed my nails. I was very pleased. A girl couldn't possibly ask for a more perfect/clean color application! Minus 1 star because my fingernail cuticles were never soaked for easier and smoother removal... Ouch...?! I've never experienced such thing. read more

I was there for an hour and a half and left with a poor excuse for a $30 manicure. There is gel on my cuticles and the polish is extremely thick. This salon does not offer discounts for poor experiences. Awful customer service. This place is truly hit or miss it depends on your nail artist is. Try to ask for Coco or Stella if you don't get them it's a guaranteed nightmare. Every time I have been here I know they are talking about but are doing it in their native language - you just tell when they are staring at you and laughing in your face, I find it extremely rude. Today I had someone I had never had before, I come here often. She didn't wash her hands before sitting down, her hands were clammy, she painfully removed my gel, and then was unable to finish the manicure and called someone else in. read more

I liked the way they came out, also, after I got my nails I got to put my hands is some hot (not to burn me but for the you know, the relaxation ‍) wax.

Fabulous! I came here the week they opened from Covid and they were exceptionally meticulous about social distancing and sanitizing. 110% meticulous. Nobody rushes you in and out and they did a fabulous job on my feet. I paid for the organic pedi and it was worth every dime I paid. Whether it was the scrub or the lotion or the hot wraps, they were absolutely perfect and detailed. They are all so nice and chat with you making it a great environment. The next best part was the neck and shoulder massage! It was fabulous! Fifteen minutes of massage while your feet dry and I almost fell asleep in the chair. I no longer will be going to my long term place as this was wonderful!! read more

Very expensive for a basic pedicure. They charge a $20 up charge for gel polish which is ridiculous. The worst part was the woman who did my pedi was waiting next to the cashier to see how much I was going to tip& when I went to hand her the money, she snatched it out of my hands. I won't be back. read more
