I would give this place 3 stars because it needs a little renovating but I’m bumping it to 4 stars because they do the BEST eyebrows. Always perfect. That’s worth a lot. Mimi and Lee are great and I’m sure they pass their lessons on to their colleagues.

By far the worst nail experience ever! When I first came in I mentioned that I was going to the beach and that I wanted gel on my toes as well as my hands and was told no I couldn’t get it done on my toes, even though at another location I’ve had it done before. The lady who did my toes did an good job hence the one star but while she was finishing up, another lady started on my fingers. She seemed to have an attitude while shaping my nails and thus misshaped them and rubbed the skin around them raw. When I asked her to stop because it hurt, her response was that «she needed to because it would look better in the end» I had also asked her to not cut the cuticle at the base of my nail because they are thin again her response was that it would look better after they are painted. Another woman, Mimi I think, had to take over and paint, she did a very poor job and her work was sloppy. I left with dried gel nail polish on the skin of my fingers and misshapen nails. I just wanted to leave, they won’t have to worry about me coming back.

I visited this salon on April 13th after reading the reviews on Unilocal and needing a change from my usual Skyline Nails. My experience was an utter disappointment and a complete waste of my time. The place is kinda hole in the wall. When I arrived, the place was empty, save for the barber and a customer in his chair. One single lady sat at a table in the back. I asked if I could have my nails done. She beckoned to me, rather than greeted me, to come over. Sat down. Told her I’d like to fill in and get a pedicure. She looked at my nails and started removing the polish. Then she asks what I want done after I’d already told her. So I repeated that I’d like my nails filled in with acrylic and french-​tipped. She asked me this time, if ‘you want polish change’. Yet again, I repeated myself. This time, she said ‘no’. Flat out no. From what I could understand, she said she could remove the polish and polish them with clear polish. At that point I was just fed-​up and decided to go with my first instinct, after seeing this shabby, empty establishment, and told her I’d take my business elsewhere.
Would not recommend even if their services were free.

i’ve been going to this Salon/​Nails place for a few years. I’m quite shocked by the negative comments on here. I always get my eyebrows done here by MiMi as she is the best eyebrows waxer/​stylist i’ve ever gone to. Sure when the place is busy they can get a bit hectic but i’ve always left with satisfied results from them. Especially with nails, hair and eyebrows. When i come out each time, it’s almost like a make over that they give me from head to toe. It’s my go to place for beauty secrets, even though i live a bit far from the Salon. It’s always worth the trip!

I happened to be in the area and needed a last minute haircut. Thank god I found this place, where I got a fantastic cut from Kim, the stylist. I have the typical hard/​dense asian hair, so often times hair salons will mess the cut up. Had absolutely no problem here and got the exact cut I wanted. Great haircut, friendly service, I will definitely come here again if I am in the area.

So I rarely wright posts on Unilocal although I use the app to locate places on a daily. I had posted a comment on LA nails a few weeks ago and It seemed to be erased. Well I made my second trip to LA nails yesterday and my thoughts on the place have stayed consist. I believe this place is great, and the last few comments on this nail salon seem to be flawed. I will definitely be a returning customer, especially with Mimi because my nails always come out looking awesome :)

I needed an emergency underarm wax. Three words I hope never to think/​write/​say again in my life, which will happen if I plan better. But I was unexpectedly invited out, and this place was on the way, so I figured I could run in and get an underarm wax. I get here, wait about 5 minutes (no big deal), check-​in, read Tierra’s review. Since I was not getting my brows done (I, too, like ‘em thick), I figured no problem.
I was sort of right. My esthetician did a great job. Not one hair left behind, and she tweezed what the wax did not get. However, she got wax on my dress. And proceeded to dab it out with oil! My dress is now ruined because of this idiot. And to top it off, she charged me $ 20. WTF? Where am I, Georgetown? This is a little hole-​in-​the-​wall in some strip mall on Columbia Pike in Arlington, VA. I want a refund and a gift certificate to make up for my dress. I second Tierra: this place should be avoided at all costs.

I was in need of an eyebrow arch and fill-​in for my gels. It was 9something in the morning and I was sure no one was open. Lo and behold, this place was. Not officially though. The lady came to the door and said she could do my eyebrows. «Great!» I thought. She was this overly made up Asian chick (bleached hair, eyebrows drawn in with red eyeliner, etc). She was on the phone speaking whatever language, but managed to communicate to me that I should come back to the waxing room/​closet of death. I followed. Standard procedure, right?
She stayed on that damn phone the whole time! At one point, she hands me the phone and puts it on speaker so she can continue her dramatic conversation that really sounded like the reading of a dim sum menu. I said, «Not too thin,» realizing that this was lasting way too long. She snatches the phone from me and goes back to her conversation and starts tweezing at my eyebrows. Funny, with all the waxing, I didn’t think I had a damn thing left. Finally, she leads me from the closet of death and takes me to a shabby looking mirror. WHERE THE HELL WERE MY EYEBROWS??? Where my eyebrows once were, I was left with two thin lines of struggling-​to-​hang-​on hair. I said, «What the hell did you do?!?» She replied, «Eeee looo niiiiiiii!» (It looks nice). I will be DAMNED. Adding insult to injury — she charged me $ 12! For three weeks, I walked around looking shocked, amazed and surprised. Never again. Avoid this place!
