I have tried multiple nail salons in Bloomington and this place is by far the best. Not only was the experience great as a whole but my nails have never been so perfectly shaped and painted. I went with a simple nail the first time but will definitely be returning for a design at my next fill. They take their time on every aspect even after fitting me in close to closing. The lady even helped me pick out which pink was a better match and was so sweet and funny. They both work so hard and did an amazing job. I cannot wait to go in again and see what they do next time. My cuticles look so good, no bubbles in the gel, the nail has no bumps and the shape is perfect. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE.
I just moved to Bloomington and was looking for a new nail salon . I went to one and had a bad experience, I found this one as well on google and I’m very happy to say I have found a new nail salon ! Today was my second time there and I’m just as pleased as the first time. Very clean, very nice people, and great service. My pedicure from the first time still looks good I didn’t have to get another one today . If you’re looking for a nail salon, try this one you’ll be happy !
My tech was a perfectionist taking the time to give me EXACTLY (well, even better) what I asked her for while charging me EXTREMELY fairly. Thank you!!! Beautiful nails!!
New favourite nail place in the are. Really nice people working there, they did a fantastic job!! SOO friendly and pleasant. Love their friendly demeanor and funny!! Going to be coming back :)
The owner was very thoughtful. Overall my experience was great. Everyone there was very nice and friendly. I would definitely recommend this place to my family/friends.
Love this place!! Wonderful service, my nails last up to 5 weeks and look great. They do great work here, are always professional and welcoming.
Great service and excellent quality. Ive had both regular and gel pedicures done, and they always turn out so well and last a long time. I also cannot say enough wonderful things about the massage chairs! They are definitely my favorite chairs Ive ever sat an. An appointment highly, highly recommended.
My tech did my nails & she was fast, skilled + fun to talk to! The shop has tons of beautiful nail polish colors to choose from! Very nice people here, definitely recommend!
It seemed like they were understaffed, so perhaps that explains my experience. I had an appointment and luckily didn’t have to wait too long, but many others came in who also had appointments. It felt like my pedicure and manicure were rushed and not done well because people were waiting and the staff felt pressure to get on to the next customer. I’m usually very forgiving but these services aren’t cheap and I want it done right. She acted annoyed when I wanted my nails shaped more evenly, and did not do a clean job on the dipping powder. It was very average at best and I won’t come back.
I just moved to Indiana so i gave this place 2 chances. I had an appointment and it seems like there’s only two people on staff so I wasn’t seen until well after my appointment time. When they do my nails it was very rushed, and not even two days later were my nails cracking. I always get dip which is suppose to last a while. I go back the next day & they fix it. Great. One day goes by and another nail chips. I’ve never had this happen before so i definitely will not be going back.
I had a wonderful time at VIP nails. They got me in for an appointment at a reasonable time and were quick with their service. The decor is nice and they are very friendly. I got a full acrylic set and the design I asked for transferred so well due to the nail techs talent.
As far as the salon is concerned, this was my first time here. The staff member that greeted me when I first walked in to check in for my appointment was very kind. The pedicure chairs were very comfortable and the prices were reasonable for the services
Because I usually get my nails done somewhere else but I decided to try the place and the environment is very nice and the pricing was really good alot better than some but I had my nails done from there only like four days and they started to come off for no apparent reason and or break in half and I was just very disappointed because I love it very nice design like I thought I was going to make this place my new place to go get my nails done but I really dont want to have to go back every four days you know what I mean but this is just my own experience.
My tech did a great job with my manicure and pedicure. I will definitely be back. Its nice to find a place that runs on time and does a great job.
The man who did my nails Tuan did and amazing job on my nails. He was very gentle and his shaping is so good! Definitely recommend
I came in to get a pedicure and a a basic gel manicure, but then I ended up trying the gel extensions for the first time and I love it! The ladies who worked on me were very detail oriented and accommodating to all of my requests.
I have been to many nail salons for many times and this place is now my favorite! Friendly skilled staff. This place is worth checking out.
It was my first time in today, and I had dip powder that was grown out and damaged from another shop. I walked in and was seen immediately. My tech took care of me, and it was perfect.
The two workers who did my nails were absolute sweethearts! My nails turned out gorgeous and they even helped me pick out better colors once I realized I didn’t like the ones I had started with. The drill part was a tad bit aggressive and gave me a small wound on my pinky but it’s barely noticeable!!
I love this place. Ive been going here and they never disappoint. Theyve got great selection of colors, talented technicians, excellent accommodations, and the best customer service in my opinion.
The technicians were friendly and professional throughout my visit. She took her time and did not rush the service. My nails came out great!!!
Tuan did an amazing job! I got an acrylic set and a pedicure. Best I’ve had in a long time, if ever. The salon is beautiful and clean and everyone was friendly and professional.
A great experience! My friend and I had a lovely time with our mani pedi. The atmosphere was welcoming and we felt prioritized.
Been coming here for a few months now, and Im never disappointed. Thank you so much for doing me right every time I come in. Always good service and great nail advice:) I happy with her nails.
Tom did a phenomenal job with my nails! He was able to add these little butterfly designs that I really wanted, and it came out looking terrific. Could not recommend him more! :-)
I agreed to go here with my fiance for a pedicure, and now I can easily confess I may even go alone, too. The staff was super friendly, Knowledgeable, and CLEAN. I was hesitant going during the pandemic, but I can rest assure they take all proper precautions. It felt great. I felt great afterwards, and I got to try something new.
The owners are super nice and always do an amazing job on nails. Love going here every time!
Had exactly the color dip i wanted! The man who did my nails is an artist and does such wonderful work! I am impressed every time I go.
Best nail salon I’ve gone to in Bloomington. They do a great job shaping the nails as well as filing them down so it’s nice and smooth and natural-looking.
I’ve been to this place 3 times and had great service each time!! Tuan puts great detail into his work and takes time to make sure I walk out with the best nails possible. He’s also very funny and keeps great conversation. I get compliments all the time & where I got my nails done so I’ve recommended all my friends to go here. He also never rushes through my service because he makes sure the nails are good quality instead. I had grown tired of going to nail shops in town and being unhappy with my nails a week later but since I found VIP I can finally keep up its my nails. Everyone should feel like a VIP by going here :)
I have gotten my nails done numerous places and this palce was truly an amazing experience. Not only did they take me on short notice but they were extremely accommodating and made me feel very welcome.
Saw a photo from a friend and decided to try this place out. The staff was super friendly. They did an amazing job and had a lot of patience. Thanks!!!
I’m in Love with this place! Asked for ombré pink to white acrylics and got exactly what I wanted! Will be going back!
Got my nails done yesterday and they look so good!! Tuan really takes the time to make sure the shape is right and that you like your nails. Hes also very friendly and I never felt rushed despite not being finished until a little after closing . I had a great experience at VIP Nails and will definitely recommend to friends!
This salon is so solid and they have the best, most accommodating people. Amazing selection of colors, and they always take good care of loyal clients.
I was in town visiting my sister and she brought me and MY MIND WAS BLOWN. We asked for two full sets and two pedicures. It was around 5:30pm and he closed at 7 but was more than willing to stay late for us. He took his time, didn’t rush at all. Our nails look perfect and exactly how we envisioned them!❤️
Still admiring my perfect nails.
They made sure I was comfortable and there were no bad attitudes or discomfort. The owner actually stopped by as I was leaving and I stopped to tell her how great my experience was.
Tuan is so kind and really takes his time! Great nails, service, and staff.
Made an appointment for 5:30. I showed up at 5:21, no one greeted me until I had stood there for about five minutes. I was told if I didn’t have an appointment they wouldn’t help me, which I thought was quite rude to be the first thing they say. The waiting area seats are definitely not six feet apart so I waited until the women who was already sitting to move. By the time I got to sit in the waiting area, it was about 6:00. More women kept coming in and eventually they sat in waiting area too, which was quite crowded at this point. I finally decided to leave at 6:15 after waiting 45 minutes because more women came into the already small space. I didn’t say anything because you could tell they were busy but I’m definitely disappointed. Most other nail places are only allowing people to come into the building after calling and confirming employees are ready and I’ve never had to wait that long for something I booked in advance. Won’t be coming back.
Love this nail salon! Have been going here since my freshman year of college (3 years), and have only had good experiences. The guy working here is the best!! Thank you for my awesome nails!
I love VIP Nails! The shop is clean and they take their time on each customer. I recently broke a nail during a workout and they fixed it for me at no charge right before closing time! Highly recommend them for any nail service you might need.
I came in with a picture of what I wanted and he came up with an even better idea! My nails are so cute! And he suggested butterfly stickers which were a great touch that I’d never thought to get before. Great quality nails for the price you pay.
Love it here, I managed a nail salon for 3 years and I’m very picky. They are a fun, nice, family owned shop that does great work. My boyfriend comes in and gets a design to match my nails and I think it’s the coolest thing.
Tom, who does the acrylic, is the best I’ve found in Bloomington. Gets the right shape every time and lays the acrylic strong but not too thick. Very natural looking. I send all of my friends to him when they want acrylics. Not the best with appointments all the time but they take their time with each client. Highly recommend.
Tuan was absolutely amazing! Very sweet and did an incredible job!
I made an appointment over a week in advance and it still took them 45 minutes after my appointment time to even start on my nails. then throughout the manicure they kept having me sit in the waiting area so they could work on other peoples nails, the outcome was the longest and crappiest manicure Ive ever gotten. Not worth the $45! Save your time and money and go somewhere else.
I have been on the hunt for a good salon in Indiana while I’m here visiting and I have finally found the holy grail. My fill was amazing and the shaping was perfect. Definitely recommend!
Very friendly and professional! wonderful service!
This is my absolute favorite place to get my nails done!! I come frequently and they always do a wonderful job! Incredibly personable and amazing service! Highly recommend Tuan :) He’s the best!!
Tuat gave me a mani and pedi 2 weeks ago and I loved it! Came back today for a new full set and he did a wonderful job! I also had a little chip on my toes from my previous pedi and he fixed it, no questions asked! Shop was very clean and tidy which is very important during times like these.Thanks VIP!!
My name is Lanie! Posting from my hubby’s account, love this nail salon! Went there for the first time ever today and I will certainly be returning! Didn’t catch the guys name but he was amazing and my nails are stunning! I have had many a horror story when it comes to acrylics and I can without a bit of hesitation say you will not be disappointed! 10/10 a breath of fresh air in a world of bad acrylic jobs!
Went in for my first acrylics. I was very impressed with how they looked and felt, and the price was very reasonable $48. The lady was very nice in helping me pick out a color. However, despite making an appointment I felt very rushed. But I would definitely go back because of the quality of my nails.
Tuan took his time to perfect my nails. He was really patient with me and made sure I loved my nails. He did a really good job shaping them and painting them!!
$45 for full set acrylics w/ gel ($35 for reg polish)My mans Tuan is so so so so unbelievably talented. Even though I got basic acrylics, he didn’t miss a BEAT. I never had to ask him to fix anything at any point during my manicure because he shaped and painted so delicately, yet so quickly.The other woman working there was hilarious and made all the customers laugh. Such a great experience. And look at these nails!!!
Yuan and his wife did a an AMAZING JOB on my nails and feet😍. Very meticulous. I always leave a tip as their prices are very Reasonable 😊
This is by far the best nail place in Bloomington. They are so kind and professional and always take their time to make sure you are very happy with the result :)
Love love love how my dip powder nails turned out! They were quick to get me in and taken care of. In and out of the salon in about an hour. And amazing service too!
This was my first coming here and I loved it. They’re very hospitable. The pedicure was awesome. The lady who did it was very nice. I loved the experience overall.
Absolutely phenomenal!!!!!! Ive been so many places trying to find one thats good enough because I am so picky when it comes to my nails. And I found the one!!!!! Tuan is incredible at what he does. The attention to detail and perfection is a million percent there!! If I could give more stars I would! Never going anywhere else but here. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!
This is a great nail salon if you’re looking for walk-in service with a good outcome for the prices. They do great work and I’ve gone to them periodically over the years and the service has stayed very consistent.A major downside of this salon is that they DO take appointments, however, most of their business are walk-ins and therefore they are not great at prioritizing those that had a set appointment.The staff is very friendly and do great work, but I couldn’t give 5 stars as time management has consistently been an issue over the years.
Best place I’ve ever come to get my nails done! Tuan does a great job!
WOW! I just splurged I’m getting my nails done today and I am in love 😍. My nail artist was so professional and meticulous with each step and my nails turned out better than I could have ever imagined!!! I am definitely coming back on Christmas break and after I graduate (I’m not allowed to have fake nails or polish in class, since it isn’t ServSafe). I cannot get over how good they look and feel. They aren’t too thick, which I’ve experienced at past nail salons with acrylic nails, but these are so even and beautiful 😍. They’re really taking steps to stay sanitized with the virus too. I am 100% satisfied with this visit and 100% recommend it to anyone! Wow! (Also they got me an appointment within 30 minutes of my call, so kudos to that too!) this was truly the best full set I’ve ever gotten!
I called this Nail Salon last minute and they were able to service me same day. This place was clean and the prices here are Amazing. I showed my nail tech a picture of what I wanted and he did it even better. I would def recommend this nail salon to everyone. Oh wait the pedicure is also amazing. 10 stars for sure!
I showed them what I wanted and they gave me exactly what I asked for!! I recommend them, they just take a longer time to serve because they only had 2 people working.
Best place in Bloomington! Consistently exceeds my expectations.
I told them about how I had a bad experience with having my nails over drilled in the past at a different salon, and they took the time to file my nails gently and explain the different aspects of keeping the nails healthy during the removal process and what to look for.
I have been coming here for years and they are the best around. Seriously, I’ve never found a pedicure better than what they do! They’re so sweet and professional. Highly recommend!
VIP nails did a beautiful job on my acrylics and refills! I have never had any problems with them breaking and the gel polish looks great & lasts. One of the best nail salons I’ve been to.
LOVE my nails !! They were perfect for the occasion and even when I broke my nail literally the nexthour at the grocery store, the nail tech was more than willing to fix it for me . And he fixed it perfectly ❤️❤️❤️
The owners here are so so nice . The place is very clean and very professional. I been coming here for over a year and still gives me the best service. You must stop by here and try it!
I didn’t get what I asked for and as if that’s not frustrating enough, he managed to hurt me in the process. He was super rough and in a hurry and my nails started lifting only a week after.
They are always super friendly and do their very best work!! I love coming here!!
I always have a great experience at VIP! They are the best place in Indiana to get your nails done and relax. Their business makes you want to book your next appointment before you’ve left your current appointment!!
Nu made me feel so beautiful!! She pays great attention to detail and made my toes sandle worthy. Beautiful lady and beautiful shop!!
I Scheduled a mani/pedi and the service was wonderful. The staff were very friendly and attentive as well as professional. The whole experience felt very personal. The salon was very clean and the technicians are very detail oriented making sure your nails and toes are perfect, the massage and other treatments especially for the pedicures were very thorough as well. Would definitely recommend giving this place a try. I will definitely be going back!
I have been to many nail salons in Bloomington over the past four years, but for the past two i always come back to VIP if possible. This is a great family run business, run by kind people, who always do an amazing job. It has always been sparkling clean and I am never disappointed . 10/10 recommend this lovely place!
OMG I LOVE MY NAILS. They gave me EXACTLY what I wanted when I showed them the picture. Was very professional, nice & great hospitality. Took their time and didn’t rush even though I was the VERY last customer. Highly recommend.
I went to this place for the very first time and I am in love with my nails! The shape is absolutely perfect, I’ll definitely be back!
Best nail technicians I’ve ever encountered. They were polite, hospitable, and clean. They did AMAZING work. 11/10 recommend.
Was referred by a friend and I love Twan’s work!
I went into VIP nails after having a negative experience at another nail salon in town. The negative experience involved not painting my nails neatly, the length being much longer than I liked, (despite my requests) telling me they could not get them any shorter, and several cuts to my cuticles. VIP nails listened to these concerns, got my nails down to the shape and length I requested, and did a very neat and clean job. My nails feel strong and look great! My first fill went equally as great and I will be returning for each fill. I also take my daughter with me for a gel manicure and they do a great job on her varying styles as well. Will recommend to others!
