Today I went to three different nail salons trying to get a pedicure, and every place had a two-hour wait. When I came here, they were able to take me right away. My goodness, what a comfortable experience! Rose was amazing and took exactly one hour. I'm so pleased with the entire experience. I highly recommend this place! read more

Hailey does absolutely amazing every single time! She is very professional and so kind. Throughout every appointment I have had with her, she constantly asks if I like what she has done to make sure I am happy. She makes me very comfortable. You don't have to be nervous to ask her to change something, she listens and is quick to do whatever you ask of her. I have been going to Hailey for over a year now. I am satisfied with her work every time. Definitely book with her, 10/10 would recommend! read more

I do not recommend this place. I received terrible service today. I paid $38 for a basic pedicure. My left toenail was VISIBLY shorter than the other one. Other customers noticed from their chairs. Polish job was smudgy and uneven. I came home and tried to redo it myself. After removing the polish, I noticed some toenails were cut very short and round, others square, I couldn't notice it with the polish on, but that explains why they looked so terrible. The manager tried to fix the big toe by clipping the longer one shorter, however, she had a bad attitude. No one apologized. I ended up with about 5 coats of paint in one foot, which made it look even worse. I walked out before she applied the top coat. I also did not get a massage. When I brought it to the tech's attention, she said I did . I told her she did not, as I was carefully watching while she carelessly, and roughly, clipped my toenails. Her answer was, you did not get the "spa" package. I am all for supporting small businesses, and I was looking forward to this, as it is a big treat for myself. I will share this experience with family and friends. Proceed with caution. Some nails were cut SO close to the nail bed, that is causing a bit of pain. I feel like I should receive a full refund. I have documented with pictures. This was my personal experience today. I'd like to say it was a tech issue, but Haley, the owner, was less than helpfu. Also, I did not get a receip. read more

Vivians Nail Spa - Injured cuticle while getting refill on 7/30/23. Will not Be returning to this salon. - Nail Salons Near Me - Montclair, Virginia

What happened to this nail place??!! I have given it more chances that I should have. The pedicure was acceptable BUT there was only a 50 second massage then I was thrown to another employee for my manicure with no explanation or help. While my manicure was being done the employees chatted so loudly at each other , it was just rude. I will not give this place another chance which really it too bad since the location is perfect and the salon is clean and nicely decorated. But with service this bad I'll pass!! read more

We had the worst service on 3/19/24. 3 of us had appointments at 5. We were taken back 15 mins late and left soaking for pedicures for 1 hour before anyone even talked to us. There were dirty utensils in the drawers that when realized they were dirty... they were just put back in the drawer. We were then rushed thru our service ... as others swept around us . They closed one hour early. We have been going together to this salon for years but we won't be back. If I could give zero stars I would. read more

Came here today with my daughter and it was so so nice! Mani/Pedis girl day and I about fell asleep during my pedi. Relaxing massage chairs and super clean salon. The staff was friendly and helpful and awesome. We got the deluxe spa pedi and gel mani/French gel. I'm a marathon runner, I put in a lot of miles and treated my feet and calves to some TLC and I really needed it. read more

Vivians Nail Spa - French Gel - Nail Salons Near Me - Montclair, Virginia

I have been going here for years, but I think they are doing something shady with the products now. I had a GEL manicure and it started chipping the next day, and my pedicure chipped 2 days later. I thought it was a one off problem, but it's now happened multiple times. Don't waste your money. Sad to see this... read more

I am very sad as I had really high expectations. I wanted a pink American French tip long. I had an appointment at 10am and wasn't seen until 12:30. I spent 3 hours in this salon. When finally someone was going to help me she put tips on (crooked) then told me I had to wait because she had another customer that had an appointment with her coming in. I sat on 3 techs chair and they kept passing me around. Now with the result I am beyond disappointed. Almost cried in my car. $70 for this is a total joke. My fingers were bleeding. She hurt me many times! I am in severe pain, please don't go here! read more

Since moving to the area, I've searched for a salon that provides a good mani and pedi and includes paraffin wax for a reasonable price. Glad to finally find this place! Julie provided friendly, expert service, with attention to every detail. She wasn't rough or heavy handed. Did a great job on my pedi w/callous remover and on my gel mani. As she applied polish to my nails, she brushed smudges from edges, for a neat and perfect finish. Service and price are comparable to the salon I go to in Springfield. Glad to have found a quality salon close to home! read more

Vivians Nail Spa - Perfect gel mani - Nail Salons Near Me - Montclair, Virginia

I booked a gel full. The quality of the service was bad. My nails looked like they were done by a 5 year old. They were different lengths and shape's. But the bigger issue is that my cuticle was clipped which caused pain and bleeding that the technician tried to ignore until I asked for an antiseptic to stop the bleeding. I should have walked out however, they provided a service albeit bad service that wasn't worth the drama. I believe my tech was the owner. I will never go back and of course there was no tip . I had to pay another shop to do them over. Worst experience ever. Stay away. You could sense they were rushing to keep the chairs filled. I had an appointment but had to wait 29 minutes regardless. read more

I was told over the phone that I can come in for for a soak off but was denied multiple times while sitting in the chair at the salon. My acrylics were ripped off my nails and the service was very painful even after I said it hurt. read more

i usually enjoy going to the salon since it is close to me, but my last visit was on excusably horrible. I decided to get a normal part instead of gel, and I had to sit there for an hour and a half before they took it off to redo it because it wasn't drying. So then I just sit there again for maybe like 45 minutes so in total I was there for 2 1/2 hours for a normal pedicure. They were apologizing, but i'm not returning read more

This place is amazing!! Great staff who really takes into consideration of what you want to get. I went with a friend and they seated us right away for pedicures. They had a lot of options for gel colors. I would definitely go there again! :) read more

This place needs NO stars Horrible service!!! I believe his name is Sammy VERY RUDE. Nail work is just ridiculous. He had the nerve to come start Painting my nails with a color I didn't ask for. Just because it was close to the color I requested that they didn't have at the moment. I had extra acrylic that should have been filed down left on my nails harden on my skin.The shape was terrible. My nails didn't last a day within 15-20 mins I was back there for cracked acrylic an them asking me to come back 2 hours later. After me telling them I don't mine waiting just wanted to know how long. NEVER AGAIN read more

Everyone that knows me will say I am very hard to please well this is my second time visiting Vivian's Nail Spa and Tao has exceeded my expectations both times.

Thanks Tao!!!! read more

i Hate to make things about race but just know if you're black don't go here they charge black customers a higher rate than white customers the prices they have in the booklet doesn't apply to you if you're black. The lady was so busy running her mouth she almost cut my finger off then still over charged me how is a short set $50 and a short fill in is $40 make it make sense. never again. read more

I'm not one to leave a negative review on here but it is necessary. WORST MANICURE IN MY LIFE. I think the guys name is Sam or Sammy. He was very rough and didn't care at all that he hurt me and hit my cuticle. I complained and told the manager and she didn't apologize but instead said it was my fault that I have "sensitive cuticles." As a business you're not supposed to place your faults on your customers. They didn't proceed to fix any of the problems I pointed out. Instead continued to do a sloppy job. I'm sorry but I don't recommend this place to anyone. Unless you want terrible service and bloody nails. read more

I went to the one in Springfield for years but moved to Woodbridge and needed something closer. This salon is just as beautiful and I initially was pleased and gave them a 5 star review. However, after several times visiting here and always having to wait 20-30 minutes after my scheduled appointment, I am done. I'm particular and always book with Hailey who was great at first but then declined. Regardless of having an appointment, I would be waiting for her and then be rushed through my services. I typically bring my entire family here but we will no longer be giving our money to this location. I actually ended up walking out after waiting 20 minutes with my husband. I realized that hailey had at least another 30 minutes putting on the acrylics for her current client. I am done and disappointed. I really do hope that John or Kayla see this review and make sure they don't let this keep happening. I know this isn't their standard of service but unfortunately I have had enough with the Dumfries location. read more

Went there for the first time today and chose this place due to reviews and proximity to my house. Walked in around 11:15a on a Sunday, they opened at 11a. I got the last available person. I filled their last available seat for pedicures. It was full. I asked for the spa pedicure and it was nice, just what this 7 month pregnant mama needed. Could it have been better? Maybe by more massage on feet and calves but I got what I needed. The hot stones were nice, not too hot but I felt like I could have gotten more out of them. Manicure was nice and simple. First time I've had wax on my hands. Felt like icing on a cake when pulled off. I had my brows waxed. She did a good job. I didn't have to point out to many spots of stray hairs she missed. I was super bushy so there was a lot to remove. I paid $79 for everything- not including the tip, not too shabby. I didn't catch the lady's name but she was older, probably past middle age? I wouldn't be upset if I had her again but I'd like to see how one of the younger girls do on me next time. read more

Awful service. Lena kept telling me I needed a special base and top coat on top of $20 for a regular manicure. BS. I paid and polished my own nails at home. Shady and greedy place. Absolute time I visit this place; many better places in town! read more

Very poor customer service. They do what they want not what you ask. The older lady who did my nails cut my cuticles a few times (causing bleeding) and was very rude when I asked her to be careful. Manager thought is was funny and blew me off. read more

I used to love coming here because it's so close to home but the past few times I've come, I've been more than disappointed. I got a gel mani and regular pedi, done by two different ladies. I wish I would've asked or remembered their names because I appreciate when other reviewers let me know who to steer clear of. Unfortunately I didn't but honestly I'd just say pass on this whole establishment in general. The lady who did my toes did not even look at my toes while she was clipping, filing, painting. She literally was looking everywhere else except my toes. It was really irking me and I'm not one to nit pick when I go to get my nails done especially since I'm asian and it just feels weird to be there in general lol. But she did the worst pedicure I've ever received. There was a hair on my toe, like a noticeable hair stuck into the nail polish at which I showed her and this lady painted over the hair. I kid you not. I was shocked. The lady who did my nails, did not let me know the color I asked for wasn't available. She just tried to play it off like it was. When I asked her why the numbers didn't match the one I asked for she then told me that it was the same color. I color swatched it on my nail and told her it's definitely not the same color to which she then rolled her eyes and told me to pick a different color. Then she had the audacity to tell me the one on my toes wasn't the color I picked but I didn't notice. Well ***** now that I look at it, you're right this is the wrong color as well. Smh. Worst part is - the lady painted the clear coat of my gel all over my cuticle, sides of nail and never cleaned it up so that when the UV light set, I had all this hot mess crustys that ended up making my nails get caught on everything. Also made them start peeling on the second day. Actually, that's not the worst part. The real worst part was after the parrafin wax, the lady peeled about 80% of it off and just said ok you're done... leaving me to peel off the wax from between my fingers, under my nails, between my Cuticles, everything. I'm pretty sure she did that tho because I inquired about why the color numbers didn't match. Never again. read more

If you would like very basic nails go here. They didn't have the color I wanted multiple times, could not do the design I wanted (a heart), and they over charge. I got very basic nails (regular polish pedicure, gel manicure) and they charged me $75. I can get better quality for less than this! Also there is really no point of scheduling an appointment because they choose anyone who's waiting to go next. read more

The WORST Manicure & Pedicure i have ever got in my life the people there are RUDE.she was rough when she did my pedicure she kept snatching my foot everytime it slipped.The hot wax was burning the hell out of my foot.When she did my nails she only knew how to do square and was rough on my cuticles and when drilling my nail bed she kept drilling my skin.i asked for longer nails and she still cut them short and asked if that was fine i said no i wanted them longer but she still cut the others short.she didn't put enough acrylic on my nail bed and it looked TERRIBLE.I called and made a appointment she told me the total would be $65. $30 for my pedicure and $35 for my manicure but when i checked my bank statement it said $67 she charged me two dollars extra so i refunded my money ASAP. read more

Vivian's Nail Spa has a professional staff of technicians who enjoy their work. English is an accepted language.

I was so disappointed with my appointment today. I had scheduled a gel manicure and a pedicure. I was rushed to pick a color by the male nail technician who I made the appointment with. He nicked one of my toes and nicked one of my fingers that he may me bleed a bit. I was really looking forward to a relaxing appointment but this was far from that! read more

Very Nice place... Nice staff. My only complaint is that I chose the regular pedicure which included a 10 minute massage. When she started painting my toenails I asked the technician if the massage was at the end, and she told me she had already done it. I recalled her doing about 2 minutes of a green scrub, and about 2 minutes of an oil massage (which she used to get the paraffin wax off with). I guess I was confused. Perhaps they should use timers like other places so that there is no confusion. If you don't mind the massage being skipped (which is personally my fav part) I would still recommend this place to someone. read more

New nails spot just opened in Montclair. A little more expensive than other places in the area. Brow wax $12 for basic shaping. Locals got mailer with 20% off a service so I gave it a shot. Full array of OPI nail colors. Nothing spectacular. Decent work. Quality material. I've never waited longer than 2-3 minutes the 3 times I've went. So far so good. read more
