Top Reviews about 16 Nail Salons in Puyallup, WA (Part 2)

Brandy Ewing Youn My normal nail lady was sick and I needed nails for a black tie event. I came here hoping the reviews were right. I was thrilled with my experience. Tony was very friendly and did beautiful work.

Sophia Henley Service was amazing! I’ve been to a lot of different nail places and this place is now my go to. Super kind and fun overall wonderful!

Rene Miller Jacklyn did my nails and she did amazing!! I brought in a picture that I thought would be too much, but she went above and beyond and beyond. They turned out amazing!! This was my first visit but I will definitely be going back.

Lisa Resser I was able to get in right away even though they were super busy. My nails look great and I’m all ready for Christmas !

Jennie Drake Excellent experience, so attentive to detail. I also appreciate both tech just letting me relax and enjoy the experience.

Torey First, I’ve been coming here for a few years now and I do love all the nail techs and the environment, you can watch romantical movies and relax without feeling rushed! I will say though the last few sets of acrylic I’ve got, have either popped off or the nail broke. I spent $90 WITH TIP, only for them to pop off less than a week later and all on 7/4. I wfh so I’m not out here smacking my hands around and generally am pretty gentle on my hands. I’m a little disappointed and upset. So I’ll more than likely be sticking to pedicures.

Sharon D Forslund The best pedicures and acrylic nails Ive ever had done......have been here at LD NAILS. Excellent prices. Quality work. Clean! Friendly! Accommodating!

Holly B First time here and I loved it. The husband and wife owners are so sweet and very talented and professional. Great prices as well! They also appreciate it when you call ahead to schedule an appointment.

Lynz Ee Okay so, I just came here for the first time thinking Id try a new place and the reviews are very good. I got a full acrylic set with a color and the man and his wife are so attentive to your requests. I noticed that immediately. Their English is very good and they enjoyed in conversing with their clients, who they know by name. This honestly warmed my heart and its such an inviting atmosphere. The lady made sure to check the evenness of each nail as thats something all of us who get our nails done find to be a common issue. They are all even and I love how they look. Also, the husband hooked me up with a good deal and gave me shellac for half price since I was new and reluctant to try it on acrylic. Ill be back :)

Tonie Edwards My Husband and tried this place just off the cuff, we wanted a place closer to home. The quality is amazing!! We couldn’t have been happier, we most definitely want to make this more regular for us. I absolutely am absolutely proud of my nails I did a full acrylic. He has his classic manicure/pedicure. They were very accommodating, kind, and understanding. I just got done and I can’t wait to go back!!!

Jazz Miller This place is close to home and my 1st time coming here. Wanted to get mine and my daughters nails done for our birthdays, and they accepted walk ins. Ive heard terrible things about nails places but this one from the moment we walked in was a great place. Very clean, all staff welcomed us, and it smells great. Both my daughter and I did pedicures and full sets $40 +. I work construction, so I wanted to take care of my feet, so I did the signature pedicure $60, and my daughter did the spa pedicure $39. Our pedicures were with French tips. My staff was Jenny, and she took her time and made sure everything was great from the water to the heat of the stones and towels. Never once felt rushed or unwanted like other places. Lisa was the one who did my acrylic full set, which Ive never done, and I decided to do a stiletto style not too long, just right. The color is amazing, and I just showed her a picture of kinda what I wanted, and it came out even better than the picture. They are truly amazing, so friendly, and really take cares of their clients and its such a wonderful place. Will be coming here again. Thank you guys for giving us a great experience.

Lori Moore When I moved here I tried several places to get my nails done but this place is by far the best! They listen to you and do what you want them to do without trying to force you to do some thing else and they are so nice and take their time with you. I highly suggest checking them out! Mai did another amazing job on my nails!!

Rhonda Allen-Boettcher I love this nail salon. Great prices and my nails always look so pretty. "P" is always so great about bringing my ideas to life. When I am in need of a little TLC this place is my go to. Thanks avatar nails!

Cristal Fisher I love Avatar Nails. They do such a good job. Mimi, the owner does my nails. Absolutely amazing when she is done. Mimi is such a sweet. If you’re not a customer, you should be.

Lauren Swensen I went in to get a special set of nails for my birthday. I had inspiration pictures and they just looked awful. I actually removed them after and has them redone somewhere else. I was bummed because the nail art they do is so pretty but what I received was just awful. And as if that wasn’t bad enough, whatever product they used burned my nail beds so bad, they told me that’s normal and sprayed my nails with alcohol but I’ve never experienced that before.

Fancy Face Worst nail shop I ever been to. To just get two broken nails done. Im new to the area and I will never go back to her period. Everyone cant do nails!!!

T Bh I went to get my acrylic nails removed and was charged $35. Nearby places charge only $10, and this one felt overpriced for the service—or lack thereof. They couldn’t remove all the nails, and I was there for almost an hour and a half with just 8-week-old acrylics. The technician was nice, but the price didn’t match the quality. Removal shouldn’t be so expensive, especially since most of the nails were already falling off, and she mostly just cut them down. I didn’t want a manicure afterward, as I didn’t want to spend my entire day there. Parking can be difficult, depending on the time of day. I likely won’t return, though it’s an option in a pinch.

Shana Roark The woman who did my nails is so sweet .. I would go back again just because of that. But! I do give a 3 star rating because my acrylic nails did not have good retention and fell off two days after I had gotten a full set.

Lianne Larson I would have given a 5 star, but I took my husband, a daughter and grand daughter all for pedicures, a deluxe one. $50.00 a piece, but 2 of us got shellac, so ours was 65.00 total should had been 230.00 but she rung it up at 245.00 wished I would had caught that while still there. So do the math before leaving.

Freya Hutton Would NOT listen to me and told me after they sat me down they didnt have the colour for the design they already okayed and then would not understand what I was saying or from pictures and didnt listen at all I have lint in my clear coat and the worlds worst cat eye job. I have anxiety and a hard time explaining things and to have someone not ask any clarifying questions and just go full bore at what they think (despite showing photos of the updated design I wanted) is right and that just doesnt work.

June Mama I’m going to say that I am very picky about my nails and that is why I’m recommending them. Excellent work on hands and feet and they are all very good. Clean environment and the free wine or drinks are great too. They do an amazing job.Tina is very very sweet and always does my nails perfectly.

lee rose this place is horrible, i went and got my nails done on monday and i asked for square medium length plain black nails, my nails are completely different sizes, shapes, there’s lumps of acrylic, and she cut all my fingers and blamed it on me biting my nails (i’ve never bitten my nails a day in my life). she also got mad at the fact i only have her a five dollar tip. this place used to be amazing and i looked forward to getting my nails done but now i don’t ever want to get them done again. waste of money. go somewhere else but DO NOT go here.

Virginia Martin Its just awful! I wont ever go back. Although I made an appointment, the lady who started my nails passed me off to someone else when her "preferred client" walked in. This first employee I encountered INSISTED that I get a new set even though my existing set was fine. I said okay, not anticipating that she would apply super thick, bulbous layers of acrylic without even shaping or contouring. The lady who took over was no better. Just look how weird and warped they are! I am not typically a picky person about nails, but this was a very expensive, terrible nail job and bad business, from my perspective. I tipped 35% like I always do, but Ill NEVER go back and will recommend anyone to TRY ANYWHERE ELSE.

Andrelyn Izquierdo Friendly salon that was a bit busy when I went in. Yesterday was my first time going. The massage chair was completely full body massage from head to bottom and felt amazing! The spa products for the pedicure smelled lovely. And they can do pretty nail art. My nail tech corrected her own design mistakes to make sure everything looked good.

patricia augustine If I could give negative stars, I would! This was my first visit to this salon. I took my adult daughter to go get a spa pedicure. Upon being seated I noticed the tub I was to put my feet into had small bits of white material stuck around the edges of it. I pointed it out to her. I said that looks like dead skin so she said oh I will clean it and pulled out a scrub pad, turned on some water and wiped it with the pad she didn’t spray any antiseptic or antibacterial in it. There was no disposable plastic liner put in place. I should have left then. but, I was trying to go with the flow for my daughter’s sake. I sat down and against better judgement put my feet into the water. (Hoping I don’t obtain a foot fungus) This was the most rushed, not relaxing Spa pedicure we have ever had. The total experience was 33 minutes, you may think “that’s not so bad” but wait I have not mentioned yet that the employee put parafin wax/bags on my feet the got up and left the building. (I thought perhaps she’s taking a quick smoke break) NO! She was gone for 10 minutes, and returned with a kid, she had left to go pick up her child up from school. So all in all my Spa pedicure was less than 20 minutes and cost me $52.50 I will never return there!

Sean Hylton It was EXCELLENT as Always. This time I had 2 for 1

Brynna Schoneman I honestly never leave bad reviews but I am so upset about my experience here. My usual nail salon was booked but I needed to get in somewhere so I went here out of convenience and I’ve seriously never had a worse set of nails. I just so happen to be getting my engagement photos done this weekend also which I informed the nail tech of and she still rushed through them leaving them all different sizes and shapes. I unfortunately have absolutely no time to get them fixed. So I’m going to have these in my engagement photos. I was also charged extra for no apparent reason. I didn’t get a good look at them until I was in my car but if I would have looked a little better, I wouldn’t have paid for these. $85 for literally the worse set of nails I’ve ever had. Don’t waste your time or money here. Not worth it.

Marissa Delagarza I’m sad to leave this review because I have come here for years and always enjoyed my services. However, I have recently finished school as a nail tech and realize now that there are several issues happening within the salon. I’m writing today because the sidewall of my toenail was clipped out without consent, causing what will be an ingrown toenail. On Sunday, my big toes were clipped at an angle, causing an infection. Last night, when the pus started to form, I decided that I would be contacting the salon this morning. When I did the woman, I spoke to told me that she would let the male nail tech know not to cut out anyone’s ingrown toenails without consent.. Cutting out ingrown toenails is NOT EVER the job of a nail tech, but rather that of a podiatrist. Nobody but a DOCTOR should take an ingrown toenail out. Which I explained to her, And I’m sure she already knows Because we all take the same training. Not to mention, my toenail was not ingrown before, but it will be now due to how it was clipped. It’s not a simple problem of its sore for a couple days but it will take MONTHS to grow out and I may still need to follow up with a podiatrist at a later time to correct this mistake. I called my mother and told her that we will not be visiting the salon anymore and told me that she doesn’t visit this salon anymore for the last several months because they also clipped her toenails and caused an ingrown toenail to grow in place. If my mother had gotten the infection that I have, she could’ve lost her foot since she is diabetic. All of this to say, I don’t believe that healthy and clean practices are happening during pedicure services. Offering a discount or a free pedicure does not make up for the damage that’s done and I will not be going back to redeem the offered free pedicure.

Christi Thoroughman They always so an awesome job on my nails. Always have plenty of staff working, so you arent waiting.

Heidi Smith My daughter is getting married and Kimmy gave me a gorgeous, French manicure w a coffin shape. Best I’ve ever had! I’ll book with her from now on. The other nail artists are awesome, too!

Amanda Kahawaii Tee is an artist!! She does such excellent work and takes her time to make sure you are happy with it. For the pedicure I wish I’d gotten the name of the guy who did it because it is probably the best one I’ve ever had! It was a lovely way to spend a Saturday morning and I was getting compliments from strangers immediately. Highly recommend :)

Naccy Lisa Allure Nails Bar iss the best place to go for a real treat! They are the reason I have been doing dip for the past two years! From the moment I walk in to the moment I leave they treat me like family. Great location and a great atmosphere. Alex is my favorite. Trust them with your nails! You wont be disappointed! Great staple to the downtown neighborhood!

Madison First time getting a full set, and my first time visiting this nail salon and I was not disappointed. Tim, my nail artist, did such a great job on my butterfly design nails. I would 100% request for him again in the future. Everyone there was very kind and friendly, and we had a lot of interesting conversations. It was very clean there and very organized as well. The atmosphere was very inviting and friendly. 10/10 would recommend.

Hai Truong I normally say no when my girl friends invite me to get our nails done. It’s just not a manly thing to do for me. But, my experience being at TK nails was phenomenal! Their customer service was excellent and they treated me very well. I absolutely enjoyed my experience here. I came in to get my nails cut and clean and opted out getting my nails color. They turn out perfectly done! I can’t wait to visit this place again I hope you all take my advice and book an appointment now!

Scheliah Mayson I have been trying to find a new place to get my nails filled at, and I was really hoping this one would be good since it’s right next to my husband’s barber. Unfortunately that will not be the case. Not only was I hurt at least 5 times while she was aggressively trying to file down my old acrylics, but she was obviously rushing through everything. Now I would have been fine with that and given them a 4-star review if it wasn’t for the poor quality of the nails! My nails lumpy and deformed and I have multiple nails with bubbles under the gel. She rushed through everything and didn’t care about the quality one bit.

Rhonda Rhoades I didnt have the option of rating this business with a 0 or - 1. I will not be back, and absolutely do not recommend. I called in advance to make sure they had time and could provide me with the service I was wanting, Full set pink and white dip powder. They told me yes, and that I would be done in 45 minutes (sounded strange, so I just made sure it would be no more than an hour, as I would need to come back another day because I had to be at work after I got my nails done). As soon as I sat down, the woman began applying tips. Ive never needed tips for dip, especially since I stated numerous times that I wanted no additional length, as I am on my computer a large portion of the day. Not only did she continue to insist I have length (eventually telling me shed cut them down and file), she never used the dip. I asked about the dip multiple times. The layers/filler, she was adding to my nails, didnt even go to the edge of my nail/cuticle. Eventually another woman took over and told me this way I would have better results and be able to have color at a later time. I told her several times Im not wanting color now or next time. I want to keep it simple and professional looking. She insisted the way I was getting it was better and painted on the pink and white then used the light. Since the first woman didnt cover my nails with product completely, the second woman cut the edges of the top of my nails to try to match the areas where the product didnt cover. I was there for this service an hour and 25 minutes. I had to continually remind her that I needed to leave and still she tried to end with a hand massage, that I absolutely didnt have time for, as if that was going to make up for the terrible job that was done; leaving me with a film on my hands and arms. She rung me up handed me an appointment card and told me I needed to come back in two weeks. NO THANK YOU! This experience was a nightmare. What I wanted was completely disregarded. I dont usually give reviews like this, however what happened and a few pictures needed to be shared.

Lex Reeves OMG!!! I love how my nails came out. And the nail Tech was so nice to me. It was my first time getting my nails done and she was super nice about my questions. Her name was Kelly and she was amazing. My Mom got the Jelly Pedicure and she loved it. Said the massage was so nice and the treatment was super relaxing and sooooo worth it!! I will definitely be going back!

Cinnamon Hollis The salon techs are amazing here! They really take their time and make sure your experience is great and relaxing. I love the variety of pedicures offered and the gel-builder techniques.

Morganne Downing I dont get nails frequently, maybe once every couple years, but this is by far my best experience. Lena was my artist and she did a fantastic job! Took her time to make sure they turned out great, triple checked how I wanted to color done, and engaged me the whole time! I will definitely be going back next time I want acrylics! It cost me a little bit more just because I got some extras added on (knowingly).

Heather Celiceo Friendly, fast, & fabulous. I came as a walk-in for a gel manicure.They were able to fit me in without much wait. My nail tech was friendly. The manicure was fast - I was in and out in under an hour and my nails are excellent! They do not share/reuse nail files and buffers. They give you what they used for your nails so you can bring it back for next time. I think thats really nifty and I hope I dont misplace mine!

Isabelle Orriss I’ve been going here for a little over a year and the ladies are all so kind! I always see Vicky and she remembers everything I told her and is incredibly attentive and on top of it when it comes to my manicure. I get acrylics and they’re always super even and not super thick which I always look for. I’ve had the same acrylics on for almost a year, with maintenance every 4 weeks, and have only had two lift (which wasn’t on her, I’ve had this happen regardless of where I go). She always double checks to make sure I like the color and shape and is always willing and happy to adjust as needed. Definitely recommend this place, and I will continue to go here and recommend it!

Michi Mortimer I have been going to this salon for 20 years. Tried a different salon when we moved but quickly came back to this salon. They are friendly, attentive to the service provided , prices are fair and the salon is very attentive to making sure they provide a sanitary environment. I even convinced my husband to start getting pedicures. And he loves it! I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Ron H Ive been coming here for at least 5 years and had very good success with my pedicures. They were my favorite place. But things seem to have changed in the service and quality of work is not as good. My wife has been going here too in the last two times shes been in the treatment has been very subpar. We are now changing our nail spa.

Ashley Srsen I have been coming here for almost 3 years now and it is hands down the best nail place around, especially for pedicures. The prices are great and my nail lady always gets the dead skin off my feet and it includes hot wax for I believe $30. I’ve had issues with in grown toe nails and she keeps my toes pain free. It is always best to set an appt as they do get busy. I highly recommend this place.

Crystal Inkstaind The ladies at New Nails are very friendly! They do a great job. Definitely worth your time and money! You get quality service at a bargain price! My go to for a few years now!!!!
