I called in a little desperate because I got gelx extensions done in another nail salon and I didn’t like it al all. Personally I don’t really like the look of gel nails, they can look too thick for my taste. I am also very picky and I have been trying to find a good nail salon for quite sometime. Johnny was very kind to get me an appointment on a busy Saturday and take all the gelx extensions asap. After getting all the gellx off I got a dip manicure done with Johnny that looked amazing! Very thin and natural look, I am super happy about the results and I will definitely come back!
They do wonderful work- my pedicure was amazing with them. I got a gel one but they still did the hot stone and the scrub and a nice massage. I also got my acrylics removed and new gel art, and they are so careful as they work and everything came out amazing. Really like going here. Definitely make sure you make an appointment though, it’s a small place and they’re busy on weekends.
I made an appointment to have my nails done the evening before my wedding reception at 4:50. I called to let them know I was going to be 5 minutes late and they told me my appointment time was at 4:30 (which was not what I had scheduled) and they wouldn’t be able to fit me in. I was sure I had scheduled it for 4:50 and checked my email to confirm. Sure enough that’s the time I had booked. Unbeknownst to me the salon had rescheduled the appointment to 4:30 without notifying me.
I thought I knew all the great nail salons in Seattle already but just found Excellent Nails a few months ago. I’ve been there three times and they have done a fantastic job each time. Quick, fair prices and excellent work!
First time visit today. My boyfriend and I went in for pedicures and were promptly sat and both had great pedicures from the technicians. They were fast yet efficient and did a good job, very meticulous. Would definitely recommend.
The absolute BEST nail salon in Seattle. They even have gel extensions which are a musttt try. Jen always nails it (pun intended). Haven’t ever found a better nail salon
Went in for Shellac nail manicure, Jenny was my technician and she did an AMAZING job. She has great attention to detail, all my nails bubble-free, flat and smooth, NO shellac on my skin or cuticles, or under my nail. She did the perfect shape and length based on what I asked. Really good price, and pretty quick too! I will be going back again, and definitely booking in with Jenny. My nails look perfect and I love them. Thank you!
Made an appointment and made me wait 30 minutes passed my booked time before I left. I usually wouldn’t care but they didn’t acknowledge me at all. Extremely unprofessional and won’t be going back.
Great characters, excellent service, best local nail salon in the Wallingford neighborhood.
Awesome place!! Lots of attention to detail. My manicures always last forever here. Might take more time, but totally worth it.
I’ve been a loyal customer for the past 2 years because the staff is consistent, friendly, and my nails always look amazing. Even during COVID, they have been taking the necessary precautions while still being personable and accommodating. If you’ve been struggling to find a reliable nail salon, this is the place to go!
Skilled and kind staff! Took great COVID safety precautions.
Fantastic nail salon! I was able to make a same-day appointment with Johnny and the staff was extremely friendly and personable. I tried the powder dip manicure and it had held up amazingly! This was my first time for the powder dip and so far I cant recommend it enough over a regular gel manicure. Im absolutely loving the results!! It doesnt need the UV light which is really nice.One thing that was a pleasant surprise was that there were several men in the salon. Two were getting mani/pedis, and one was getting a manicure. This really gave me a good feeling, as I think everyone should get to enjoy these self-care services.It was also a fun time in the salon because I ended up having conversations with several strangers, and even made a new friend! I think the intimacy of the small space is a huge asset for the salon as it encourages conversation between the patrons. Such a special place! Highly recommend!!
I went to numerous nail salons but this so far is my favorite nail salon i love this place
Excellent service, friendly, careful and thorough.Very good work.
A truly awesome experience! I had a pedicure and my fingers done with SNS (dip) powder. The pedicure was outstanding with attention spent on my ingrown nails and a luxuriously long leg massage!! They also had SO many dip powder color choices. She shaped my nails and took care not to scrape my cuticles with the electric file. The salon was quite clean and very well organized. I will certainly be back.
Had a great first (but definitely not last) visit today. They were super clean and professional. Had mani and pedi and both looks awesome!
My favorite place to get a pedicure - $25 for the basic - call ahead they always appreciate it. Expect to still potentially have to wait even if you have an appointment they make it all happen eventually. They pay great attention to my feet and always feel great when I leave. Sometimes tricky to sit next to a friend if you show up in a group but it’s a small place and they do their best!
The nail techs were nice! My nails were over filed though and then I ended up having to file the gel polish after my appointment due to it not being smooth on the edges. Id maybe try a different nail tech.
Horrible customer service. I sat and choose my color for ombré nail dip. Jen the the technician apparently didn’t like my color and when I didn’t agree with her choice she immediately pushed the chair against me and started to look at the clock. I told her, Let’s try on one finger and if I don’t like it we go from there and but this is the color I choose. She said “it is impossible to remove it” and refused to do it as she was looking at the clock. I told her thank you for the ‘customer services ‘ and walked out. On the way way out, I run into the owner who said he will talk to her to do it but came back and said she still refused!! Imagine your boss and the owner telling you to do your job and you refused. She is either racist towards a person of color or simply rude and lazy. By the way the place has rusty smell. The old run down furniture and atmosphere is less than desirable for a relaxing spa. Don’t forget the hustle to find parking either. Stay away from this place if you want a relaxing experience.
This place is awesome. They are very detailed and attentive. However they almost always run behind on time even if you have an appointment. Walk in wait times can be over an hour on a busy day. I always go see Lucy. She doesnt speak much English but shes such a sweet lady.
Amazing selection of glitter dip powder
This is one of thr best neighborhood nail salons. The dip manicure is amazing (Jenny is FANTASTIC!) and it lasts about a month without chipping. The pedicure options are great and you get an extra ten minute massage for only ten bucks. If you live in the Wallingford area, definitely check them out!
They do good job you really like it very good
Awesome service at a great price. The only place I get a regular polish manicure. They do such a great job that it lasts for two weeks.
Nothing special about this place. A small place, most chairs and tables are run down. Towels are very old. They are not very careful working on customers nails. Lady working on my shellac cut a bit of my skin which ended up in bleeding. Another lady who was sitting next to me got her toe also cut and bleed during a pedicure. I wish they could be more careful. I am not going back there again.
My dip manicure came out perfectly!! The pedicure massage was amazing and she really took her time. Definitely will go back.
Ive been getting a Brazilian wax here for over a year now AND they are the best!!! Ive been to so many salons and they do not even compete! Im so glad I found this hidden gem! I refer all my friends here. So quick, comfortable, and affordable! Dont let the outside appearance of the salon fool you, they are the BEST!
They always take their time and do a great job.
Best value!! I’m one of many repeat customers. It’s always busy now, call ahead if you’re in a hurry and can’t wait for a chair.
Excellent Nails is my go to manicure/pedicure spot. The staff is very friendly and are excellent at all sorts of manicures and pedicures. Their selection of shellac/gel colors is also very impressive. They recently went through an owner shift so the entire place was redone to be more modern and looks much better. They also do waxing if you ever need it!
They do a great job. It’s always busy and sometimes seems like they over-book, but a great quality manicure.
First time coming here they were very polite I got my nails done and a pedicure and it came out very nice will be coming again.
I almost dont wanna say how incredible this place is because of how busy they are- but they truly are the best!
Absolutely love this family-owned business! The owners and employees do a fantastic job and they genuinely care about their customers, many of whom have been returning for years.
Great staff and consistent services that last. Heavenly foot and calf massage with the pedicure. I refuse to try another salon. Johnny and Jenny are great people and have a very good staff of tech.
Theyre always so polite and friendly and keep my nails looking amazing! I drive over 45 minutes just to have Pat and Jen do my nails! 10/10 recommend coming here!
Great place with very friendly staff and good quality nails. This crew works very fast too. I can get in and out in much less time than other places!
Love the nails they do here great customer service.
Johnny, Jenny, and Jacey are all amazing and have such an eye for detail! Well over 100 choices for SNS dip, another 100 for shellac, and another 100 regular nail polish. No chance they wont have a shade youll love!
Good !! The person who took care of me was really kind and I loved talking to her. They work fast and well, so its nice and not that much expensive
The staff was considerate and professional. I am very happy with the pedicure I recieved.
I love this spa, I got my nails done two weeks prior to Fathers Day and my toes are still looking good. The staff is super nice, and they really take time to pamper you. I brought my fiancé on Fathers Day and he loved it!
I got my first ever gel manicure done here ! And it was totally worth it .
Lovely shop. Very good service
Ive gone to this salon on several occasions but the service has declined tremendously. The last visit they left me with acetone on my nails for an hour because they were overbooked. My partner got a pedicure and Johnny cut her toenail down into the quick. It later got infected. He also cut open her heel. In previous visits Johnny has cut my cuticles to the point where they bleed. I would strongly recommend you stay away.
Love this place. Great job and great staff!
Great manicures and pedicures for good prices. Call and make an appointment because they get really busy evenings and weekends.
I love this place and the people that work there. Really happy every time I go.
Very nice staff. My daughter and I were very much pampered. Great selections of color. Were coming back.
Best Nail technicians and team in all of Seattle!!
Nice owners and staff. The best pedicures are here.
Packed with repeat customers, great attention to detail. Have SNS 💅
So nice! Good service and nice work
Got my eye brows done here and The lady paid a lot of attention to detail. Will come back for cheap waxes and such.
Very good attention and not quite expensive
Excellent $20 acrylic fill! Friendly staff did an awesome job on my nails.
For one of the inexpensive, casual nail shops, this is one of the best in the area. Great service. My go to.Owned by a couple, Jonny and Jen who are usually working there plus a few other gals, they take good care of the neighborhood regulars and are generally nice to everyone. Jen and at least one other do fills and more involved nail treatments. All give better than average manis and pedis.The massage chairs are good and they have a wide selection of colors, gels and do the SNS powder.
Wonderful! Been to too many nail places Queen Anne is horrible, same with Tinas nails downtown. Finally found quality nail Solon and reasonably priced too!
The folks here are great! Not always exactly on time with appointments, but they make up for it by being quick, and the owner is hilarious.Definitely call ahead after work or on weekends, because sometimes they are totally booked, but mon-fri before 4 they can usually pretty easily accomodate walkins, in my experience.
Never again. Not consistent. My gel manicure lasted one week. Gave them another shot and my pedicure is already messed up, because they put the nail polish on way too thick. Old product.
Well named! Service and staff perfect.
Just had the woman who was giving me a pedicure take a chunk out of my toe. I yelled out loud and my cuticle was flooded with blood. It’s still bleeding. And I had to ask repeatedly for a disinfectant and bandaid. DON’T GO HERE.
Love the owners. I never leave disappointed!
Always great work on my acrylics and at an amazing price!
Great service for both hands and feet.
Good quality, prompt service. Received what I expected.
More expensive than many other places in the area. Girlfriend was not happy when her color came off two days later.
Nails have never looked better
