List Best 19 Nail Salons in Lakewood, WA

Eunmi Lee I got my nails done at Jin Nail for the first time, and it was a great experience! She was very professional and had a wide variety of colors to choose from. I loved the design she created. it was detailed and beautifully done. I’ll definitely be back!

Anna Lee Haven’t had a nice nail session in a while and I’m so glad I went to Jin Nail. Exactly what I was looking for, Korean/Japanese up to date nail art. Her skills and details did not disappoint, I had high expectations from seeing her talented work on her insta and she delivered exactly that. Her work space is very organized, clean and displays a lot of her artwork to choose from. I can’t wait to go back.

Starla This is by far the best nail studio ive ever been to in the Tacoma area! Booked my appointment on instagram (@__jinnail)~ Sujin is so sweet and easy to talk to (she speaks English fluently so there is no miscommunications caused by language barrier). She has really good attention to detail and takes her time to make sure shes giving quality work. The space is really clean and bright (its located off of South Tacoma Way in the same plaza as Pho Tai). The nail polish brands that she uses are very high quality brands and her crystals are swarovski, so I really felt like I was getting a luxurious service. She also offers Gel-X extensions and does them properly. She has art books that have designs for you to choose from in case you arent sure what you want, and everything is so so cute! If you love chinese / japanese / korean nail art then you def wont regret coming here. I will 1000% be returning in the future.

Melinda Owen I have had manis, pedis, and massage by Yvonne. I can honestly say she is a master of her craft! Id give more than 5 stars if I could! Highly recommend!

Athena Hightower Yvonne was so patient with my mom. She intuitively met her needs.

Venessa Whitemarsh I have been to many different nail salons and spas in the past but Exceptional Nails and Massage Therapy is by far my favorite! Yvonne is so welcoming and professional. She makes you feel at ease right away. I go regularly for gel manicures and have been several times for pedicures and massages. I was having severe shoulder pain for months before I went in for my first massage, Yvonne really listened to what I was dealing with and after one visit my pain was gone. My nails always look beautiful and I get compliments on them all the time. I highly recommend Exceptional Nails and Massage Therapy, you will not be disappointed.

Maria Pierce Yvonne is amazing! She offers both the traditional table massage and the seated massage. I had to start with the seated massage after my surgery. She was able to help relax my back and shoulders which brought so much relief. Then as time allowed, I moved to the table. She worked with me making sure I was always comfortable. The techniques she uses for her massages are hands down! I always leave feeling relaxed and wishing I could have a massage from her every day. I am so glad I found her!

Kristina peterson This woman is amazing

Kimberly Lynn JohnsSmith Perfect and kim does nails the best

ItsRia J Love the one on one attention. Customer for over 10 years!

Amelia Sicotte Wonderful place to go! 10/10 service and results would highly recommend!! I got a french tip dip set and they turned out amazing! They offered me a complimentary drink upon arriving and were very quick to sit me down. They were also very thoughtful with their application always checking and asking if I was satisfied with the shape, color and length. All to say I will be returning! :)

Desiree Campos Honestly the nail salon I used to go to before was absolutely bad compared to Monstera nails because they take their time to perfect and clean up your nails here. They make them so perfect, they are really nice and patient with you and they even offer you drinks when you first arrive. They aren’t as pricey either, they make me realize I was getting overcharged back at my old salon. Overall great place to get your nails done!

Teresa Anderson First off let me say I would recommend! Today was my first visit and I will be back. I was able to make a same day appointment. I got dip pink with chrome finish. I was greeted with great hospitality and a beverage. Julie was fantastic! She gave me exactly what I wanted. She even did a sample nail so I could see what it would look like, they didn’t already have my combination in their sample. I thought that was above and beyond. I only paid $65 for my nails not including tip.

Melissa Bonner Love. Love, love this place. Kyle/ Ian are amazing. Both are attentive, detailed oriented and very gentle handed. All locations Ive been to recently have been in such a hurry ( with no one waiting) they burn my nails or cut my cuticles, causing discomfort and bleeding. I will be returning for all future services..Again Thanks for welcoming me & providing an amazing service ❤️ God bless you & to the business as a whole.

Pamela Roza Yuliya has given me the best manicures I have ever had and they last much longer manicures I have had in the past. I had badly damaged nails and after just two manicures I saw significant improvement. She stays up on the latest techniques and is incredibly professional. Yuli gets my highest recommendation.

Elena Knight Yuliyas Nail Spa is exactly what I was looking for. She is friendly, very professional, and takes her job seriously. With Yuliya, your nails are taken care of in a clean and cozy environment. She gives good advice on how to keep your nails healthy and looking their best after a manicure or pedicure. Thanks to her service, my hands and feet look great and feel healthy. I highly recommend her services.

Vera Croce I have been going to Yuliya for several years for manicures and pedicures. I have arthritis in my hands. She has been the only professional that has known how to work with my fingers and toes and make them look awesome. Thanks, Yuliya, for your expertise and your professionalism. Youre the best.

Janice Baessler Yuliya does the BEST pedicures. I have never had a more talented efficient nail tech do my nails. I love her work.

Lexie Today was my first time going to her nail salon. She is very knowledgeable about nails along with your skin. She also takes her time and does it right! Not all disappointed with how my nails turned out. I’m definitely going to be going back!

Yolo XOXO I’ve given this place opportunity after opportunity to get customer service right. Over the last 3years I went on and off each time they just aren’t warm and friendly. I walked in one morning first customer of the day. Man and woman in the front I walked in they looked at me and just continued to talk. I turned around and walked out. I will never ever go back there. Not to mention there pedicures suck, they don’t have a menu and they barely do anything during the pedicure. You will really benefit from going somewhere else. I promise!

Haily Barrett I have been coming to get my lashes done by Mrs. T for the past 4 years and I can honestly say I have never left disappointed. They have, by far, the most affordable prices in the area for the quality of work they provide. Anytime Hai has done my acrylics, they have lasted well beyond the two week period and look beautiful. Hai and Mrs. T are two of the hardest working people Ive had the pleasure to meet and they will always have my support / recommendation !

Crystal Slater Professional, kind, welcoming, very clean and skilled! If you are looking for incredible customer service and great nails, go here! I feel so comfortable every time I come in, and you can tell this is a place full of passion and love! Easy to find, good parking, and fantastic artists! This is the place to go! Thank you, for incredible service always! — call and schedule an appointment, you won’t regret it! ❤️

Cecilee Phillips Absolutely wonderful! Just got my nails done! I give it a 5 star! Theyre salon is so modern and the people are so nice. I can understand why theyre busy sometimes, because the do so good!

L Flanagan Tommy and Kim used to do my nails for years, starting in the early 2000s. I moved away for 9 years and just returned to the area. After 2 disappointing nail jobs in the Lacey and Tacoma area, I suddenly remembered Tommys. So much time passed but they remembered me as if no time passed at all. Tommy redeemed my struggling nails. I couldnt be more happy. I will make the 20 mile trek every two weeks. Beside my nails being gorgeous, they do not overcharge and they are good to their customers. Thanks Tommy & Kim for being so awesome.

Nicole Henderson I have been getting my nails done by Kim for a couple years now and she is the absolute best!!! The quality and durability of the nails she does is amazing. She also waxes my eyebrows and I won’t let anyone else touch them. Tommy does my pedicures and I won’t go anywhere else. This is by far the best nail place!!

Tasha Lee Pacheco Tommy Nails is a family owned & family operated nail salon. I’ve been coming here for 16 years and not once have I ever been disappointed. Kim and Tommy take the time & care to make sure you’re getting what you came for. I highly recommend Tommy Nails to anyone looking for the best quality.

Valerie Schmalerie Tommy and Kim are beyond AMAZING!! Ive been a regular since 2007 and absolutely love them. Its the only nail salon Ive been to that the acrylic doesnt lift. And while I usually do pink with white tips (a brighter version of a french manicure) Kim has been finishing my crazy color requests without protest. They are busy, primarily because they have VERY loyal customers like me but I promise you...its worth the wait!! Manicures, pedicures, waxing and more. THIS is my place! And if you have little ones, both Kim & Tommy are great with them!!

ShaiAnne Marie My nails have never looked better! Definitely coming back. Get your nails done here you won’t regret it.

Talia Parrish I was so excited to take my mom out for a girls day, I thought Kayla’s was the perfect place to go as I’ve been a costumer in the past, and never had an issue in quality. Well, I was very wrong. Our 3 pm appointment started 30 minutes late, and my moms nails turned out messy, splotchy, and poorly filed. The technicians insensitivity about my skin picking disorder in front of others was embarrassing. For $120, the service was far below expectations. Formerly a fan of Kaylas Nails, the decline in quality is disheartening. A frustrating two hours in the salon resulted in nails I now have to redo myself. Highly disappointed with the overall service and outcome. Additionally, despite my mother expressing concerns about the quality and imperfections multiple times, the nail technician continued with the subpar job not even attempting to fix the issues my mother pointed out to her. Its disheartening that they allowed my mom to leave with nails that were far from satisfactory, showing no remorse for the low-quality service. Excusing the messiness by blaming the dip powder used is unacceptable; investing in better-quality products should be a priority for a reputable salon. The overall experience left much to be desired, and the lack of accountability from the salon is disappointing. I will not be returning.

J Cruz Absolutely one of the best experiences, I have had at a nail salon. It was recommended to me by my son and daughter in law who go there regularly. I will be a regular customer going forward and would highly recommend to anyone looking for top notch service.

Myrna Andres I visit this salon for manicures and pedicures, and my stylist, Q, is excellent. However, i recently tried underarm waxing. Their sign says $15, which I found overpriced. Despite this, I went in for the service. But when I paid, I was shocked to be charged $30. Kayla explained that she charges $15 for each underarm, which I found ridiculous

Adrienne Scrappy I cant say enough good things about this place. You can tell these ladies all enjoy working with each other. Everyone was laughing and smiling. Quick service while still being incredibly thorough. Im a finger chewer and you can tell when you go to trim my nails. My tech spent extra time making sure my fingers looked amazing and didnt give me more hang nails than I already have, haha. I will be back many times and would recommend this place to anyone

Brigid Kane-Smith I made an appointment with Lynk via their website. I was needing a gel manicure with designs. When I arrived I was informed that Lynk only does full sets and I should not have been able to book with her. They were able to get me in with another person. After a few attempts, he was able to achieve the design I requested. The design lasted less than 1 week while I was on vacation. I paid $65 plus tip, what a waste.

Yeonji So First time going to Lynk Nails today, called in and needed to be pampered for trip asap. They got me in within no time and first impressions of the place were festive and decorated. I had a sweet nail tech named Trang. She did an absolutely amazing job.... The service was beyond any nail shop I went to. She was thorough, kind, extremely attentive, and professional. If you want your nails done. This is the spot. Amazing staff, great atmosphere and look at how cute the nails turned out Thank you Lynk Nails!

Tyler Nicole Love Lynk’s shaping! I am super picky about my shape, I need them super square and sharp, not coffin!- and she never fails me. They work efficiently so it never takes too long but they take their time to always give me what I ask for. Staff is nice and accommodating. Another issue I have had since moving to Washington is finding a reasonably priced nail place, Lynk’s prices are what I am used to coming from New Jersey - affordable! Highly recommend and love it here

Abby Davis I’m not sure the name of my nail tech but it was one of the gentlemen. He KILLS it every time. Never had a bad set done by him. Fast, clean, reasonably priced. Everyone is nice and they do such a good job. If I knew the name of him I’d request him every time bc he does such a good job.

Gaby Mendoza I have been a consistent costumer to Lynk Nails & Spa since my freshman year of highschool. Eight years later, and they still have the best costumer service. Always so welcoming and friendly. Along with being clean, gentle, and hygienic! khoi has and always does an amazing job on my nails! He is very talented and everyone else are just the sweetest to be around!

Danielle Storey I went in to get acrylics done for the first time in 2.5 years. When I got home and started looking at my nails closer i realized they look pretty bad. They’re not the same shape all around, they’re see through, I have paint around my nails and a few cuts that aren’t super noticeable but they hurt. They were supposed to be green for Christmas, they look almost black to me. Not to mention my nail tech barely talked to me and it felt like she rushed through getting them done. I’m very dissatisfied.

Cece I was recommended by a friend to go here. Full set plus pedicure. My pedicure was done nice. My full set was rushed, looked horrible after 3 days the glue lifted and my nails started to come apart, the shape was horrible once I took a good look at them in the daylight next day. I called 4 days later to kindly let them know, was suggested to come back later that day to get my nails redone. I decided it wasnt worth it because I was disappointed the first time. I PAID $130 plus tipped $10 for pedicure and $10 for nails. Im super nice too this is not cool.

Molly Bentley I love every set of nails I get done here!!! All the ladies that work here are so friendly and know just what I want!!! Sandy and Ray are my favorite!! Jen is so relatable with her stories of her kids growing up! I love coming here!! I always leave feeling pretty!!

Heather Taylor I really like this place, Ive been coming for several months after being disappointed with others nearby! Straight forward nail salon, the ladies here are nice and do a good job!! Ive had a few different nail artists and most of the time, you end up preferring one over the other, but I dont mind anyone who works here! My nails always look clean, visually appealing and they always last the full 2 weeks between when I get them filled. I dont usually get any other services done with the exception of getting my brows waxed today and my eyebrows look good, too!

Megan Lee My experience started off well, good customer care very nice. The quality of nails however wasn’t there. I was getting a fill so my acrylic was still good—I wasn’t happy with the nail shape & the paint so I came in 2 days later to have them fixed. I felt like they were annoyed that I asked for a slight fix and when I had her re-shape them it ruined the nail and paint on the sides. So now what was $80 is now going to cost me another $80+ to get a new set on and I’ll most likely not be going here to get the new full set. Super bummed as this was my first experience at this spot and I just moved here so I was looking for a new nail salon local to me.

Megan Garry Every time I come here I’m impressed with my nails. I’ve gone to 3 different nail techs (I usually just come as a walk in instead of making appointments) and each time I get quality work and everyone is nice. Pricing is pretty good also. I will definitely continue to come back here

Julie Hahn I love getting my nails done here. They always come out so good and there’s always such a positive energy in the shop☺️

Whitney Mason I really thought Id found my pedicure place. Id come here every 2 weeks for several months last year, for gel nails and regular pedicure. The first time I came, I asked if the scrub they used for their pedicures was sugar or salt. Im allergic to sugar scrubs. It makes my skin burn and itch, even after washing it off. One of the ladies told me it was salt. Great! I got that first pedicure, and they had a loyal customer. Today, I went in for a gel full set and a pedicure. I hadnt been since before the holidays (becuase of scheduling). They did the pedicure first, and after the scrub, my legs started burning immediately. I asked (in a confirmatory tone), "this scrub is salt, right? Not sugar?" Thats when they told me that the scrub is sugar. They said theyd never used salt scrub. That the salt they use is bath salt for the tub. I explained that there was a lady who told me was salt, and that Ive never had an issue before today. At first, their response to that was that the lady doesnt work there anymore and that theres new management. Then they changed to say that the woman never worked there. Either way, they still charged me the full amount of the pedicure without apology. The only thing they did to remedy the situation was to clean off my legs with hand soap. (It didnt help: 20 min later, and my legs are still burning.) I felt bad for the girl who provided the service, and I was too exhausted (after working 12 hours last night as a nurse) to put up a fight, so thats why I still paid. But I will not be returning.

Isabella Avila i love coming here this was my most recent set but they always shape them nicely and never to thick

Parris Wells They were quick, efficient, and kind. My nail tech wasted no time slaying my nails. She made sure i got what i wanted and executed perfectly. It was my first time going there so i was extremely nervous but their extensive website and welcoming shop eased my nerves. I will definitely be a returning customer.

Mai Nguyen I had a good time getting my nails done at this place. I usually get a basic manicure, gel nails, or gel nail removal (see pic with my bare nails). The only time I thought service was "meh" was when I had the color 219 done on my nails (see pic). Service will depends on which technician does yours nails.

Breanna Frizzell I’ve gone to this place 3 times hoping it’d work for me. They don’t know how to do design, but they are very patient and tried to do what I asked, which I’ll give them that. This last time I went they were so harsh on my nails, I had to pull away multiple times. They had the drill going on my nail & cut through my nail. So painful. I’ve NEVER had that happen and I’ve been getting my nails done for years. They were nice & gave me a discount and were very nice to my daughter. But overall not the best nail salon, I’ve never been satisfied with my nails from here.

Jocelyn Aguirre I’m so sad to say I had a horrible experience this last appointment considering my previous ones were so good. I usually only get my toes done but this time I decided to get my nails done too which was a huge mistake. I thought making an appointment would ensure they had time for me and not have to squeeze me in or rush anything, wrong. They rushed the work and kept hurting my skin with their electric nail filers. I’m in so much pain from today’s appointment. My nails are crooked because of how rushed they did the work. Not to mention I did not the design I asked for, not even close. I will add photos to reference what I wanted vs what I got. I will not be coming back:(

Princess Smith First off I Love the new ambience! The team members are super friendly, even before they ask you to pick a color. They have u take a seat and service with a drink of ur choice. They care about what you like and their prices are very reasonable!

Tiara Yam I really like how my nails came out! I did get a few cuts in the cuticle area but it wasn’t too bad. Overall, the staff were nice and welcoming as we were walk-ins. I recommend it!

ShaiAnne Marie I changed my mind about getting French tips I noticed they kept making comments about me not getting them, I asked for short nails square round style and this is what I got.. overall I am dissatisfied. The nails are big and bulky, some are crooked, the paint doesn’t go all the way to my cuticles evenly, and the gel was streaky. Instead of switching gels she let me leave like this. This was overpriced for the quality I got. Staff were nice there was no wait time. Will I come back? No.

Toree Kennerly I Absolutely Love EZ Nails they always know how to get me right with my manis and pedis and they are such nice workers there very nice to their customers always offering free glass of wine to 21+ or free beverages in general they can do any style the place is clean pretty pricey but good nail care cost and their work is worth what they charge. Love them not going to any other nail salon in Washington if it’s not EZ Nails

R PR Waste of time and money. Make people wait long and paid for a higher service for them to not do what i wanted from the higher service. Also rush too much and dont check up on you. Ladies are nice but service needs to get better

E J I have to say that the nail tech took her time making sure the shape was on point. The only thing that bothered me is walking in and not seeing any prices. Everyone should be able know before sitting down what you’re paying. That’s just my opinion inflation is real. But the way she took her time I would still go back. $60 for this full set.

lilian Love love love!! Ladies were very nice and so were the atmosphere and service.

Brianna Ybarra I absolutely love this place. They’re so welcoming. And they take their time. They don’t rush at all. They accommodate whatever you ask for they don’t get mad when you ask them to fix a mistake you make on your nails. They offer tea and coffee. They do amazing and the environment is so peaceful.

Rebecca Amazing acrylic fill and French tip. Equipment was clean, my cuticles didn’t get nicked once, service was friendly, and over all quick. I don’t like getting manicures but I do like having a pretty nails. I could not be happier with my experience here.

Marlissa Bonete They do good work and I like the atmosphere bc it is usually pretty quiet so I tip well when I go there. However, my biggest problem with them is that their practices are less than desirable. While its important to provide good service in a businesses performance, I think its just as important to have moral character and integrity. Unfortunately, they do not. I recently visit their shoppe. I always get the same color on my nails so I told them the number of the color and asked them for the book to confirm bc theyve put the wrong color on me before. The color is a gel with top and polish. I saw that the color was purple looking but very close to the color I usually get so I told the lady to bring the book the book did not match the color so I pointed out the color although it said the same number. So I didnt argue w her but after she put it on when I got in the sunlight I was correct. It was not my usual color but very close except for the purple twinge. Im assuming they were all out of the right color and substituted it with the number label. I was not very happy afterwards but didnt complain. But this is the 2nd time, this has happened. *Also the workers uniforms are never clean no matter what time you go into the shop, so I have to now question their equipment sanitation and tools as well. I figured if they dont take the time to clean their uniforms, then it is highly likely that they are either not properly cleaning those or simply skipping that part to make the money faster. Im going to likely find a new place to go bc Id rather pay and tip service workers who care about their clients more than making money. Health, sanitation practices, and integrity are very critical to caring for yourself as well as your clients for a very successful business.

Peggy Stanford They’re nice people very good on their no work and she’s not expensive. They go on there for eight years.

jatforte This place gets my underarms right every time. Not a boujie atmosphere, but they get the job done and they are extremely affordable in comparison to others around. If you are looking for a quick and affordable underarm wax that will last you a couple weeks this is the place for you.

Dinah Creamer Nail technician got me in right away and completed a gel polish removal and redo manicure. Very thankful for the last minute appointment!

The World of Shannon Its a very nice family owned business. The are extremely conscientious of the health of the clients and take your temperature upon arrival which is logged with your contact information just in case there is an issue with the virus. I very much appreciate this and the fantastic barriers. It made me feel very safe and secure being there. They are located directly across the street from Community Healthcare in Lakewood.

Carrie Good Very clean. Reasonably prices. Quick but good. Had a pedicure. The lady was relentless on my feet. Fixed ingrown toenail. If you are looking for a good pedicure and polish this is the place. They offer other services such as micro- blading and eyelashes. They also offer Permanent eyeliner and lip liner.

Kellie Renae Hjelmstad A friend and I decided to go here because it looked like a really nice salon inside and the reviews seemed nice… we wanted a pedicure and a manicure, both with gel. Which isn’t hard at all as she and i both have gone to school for it. But we were in the pedicure chairs for 3 hours. She and i both have cuts on our toes from the lady cutting our cuticles. When we finally got our manicures they rushed it and finished within 5 minutes. They missed spots on our nails, gave them odd shapes and left bubbles in our nails. We both have natural nails. We paid for the deluxe of everything and really didn’t get anything special done. They used some type of scrub and mask on our legs that left me with a horrible rash and scratches all over my legs and feet. I have bruises on the top of my feet from it all and my toes hurt. It was the worst experience. The staff were very nice overall, but that was the only upside. I usually do not leave reviews, bit this was just not ok.

Shebra Norris I have been going to mina for over 8 years and I have never had a time where my nails are not looking good. I trust them to always do my nails great. When I break a nail they fix them for me. Very nice people. I will always co E back to them for my nails and feet and eyebrows.

ceila ruiz Mina and her husband they always nicest every time I go there they Profesional and have done my nails really nice and pretty, highly recommended

Alyssa Dixson Once I been to Mina’s nails I have never been anywhere else this is my second home! If you come here you can expect a vast variety of colors, nails done to your liking and great hospitality! I definitely recommend, I get amazing looks for reasonable prices I love this establishment it’s my happy place !

S L I went here on a whim, hoping to find a better nail salon than the one up the street. Good friendly service from the older lady but not the pedicure service I usually receive from other nail salons. Color choice not so broad, gel manicure not good like the others either. I wouldn’t recommend if you expect the full pedicure service, color choice and the look of gel polish. 5bucks cheaper but I think She caters more to the older generation.

Regan Kelly she was too hard on my fingers, she made me bleed! the acrylic is WAY TO THIN, it feels like it can break. i didn’t get the shape i wanted, and she told me i couldn’t do white

Ziaul Haque This place is very nice! I take my wife here and she take care very carefully. She is very friendly and good manner. Shes a big knowledgeable Seahawks fan too I like talking to her. You will must satisfy!!

Victoria Hateley Love it here, very good quality nails / wax. Very friendly and reasonably priced! I won’t go any where else

Jennifer Friesen M’y daughter and I have been there many times and always had great service. Our services are always exactly as expected, and staff is kind and accepting of my daughter’s lack of social maturity.

Anne Morgan Went three weeks ago, got acrylics within days some of them started popping off. Others are completely fused to my nail and won’t come off. The acrylic is way too thick.

Sunnie Poncel Wonderful place with wonderful people! They fit me in to a busy schedule as a walk in and did an amazing job. So happy I have found a place to get regular pedicure and manicure done!

Lisa West I have been going here since 2015, these ladies do an amazing job. And are very friendly. I am never disappointed leaving there.
