WOW Nails & Day Spa

I went here for a quick gel manicure on my lunch break. The reviews were stellar and I was hoping for a great experience. The staff was friendly and the spa appeared to be well cared for and clean. They have a large selection of gel polish so I was very happy about that! My concerns about the manicure itself. The gentleman who did the manicure appeared to be rushed and cut my cuticle, pretty bad. It didn’t really bleed during the manicure but was an ugly mess afterwards. The polish itself must have been old since it wasn’t going on well. Some fingers only needed two coats, some they had to do four coats. The polish job also wasn’t the best and I had nail polish on the tips of my fingers. Since I had to get back to work I didn’t have the time to ask them to correct it. That is my fault for not speaking up but I was in a time crunch and was expecting it to be done right the first time.
I love the convenience of the shop and how close it is to work, but I doubt I will be going back here again. The manicure is also the average price for gel in the area, $ 30.00, for anyone curious about the pricing.

I went today to get my nails done at Wow Nails and Spa last time I went I had Toni do my acrylic nails and he did a fabulous job. Today another guy took care of me and he was amazing. Definitely will be coming back!

I love my gel mani. The place is very clean, the techs are very professional and pleasant. Definitely my new nail place to go every 2 weeks. :)

I only came for manicure and pedicure. the technician I had very quite and nice. During the pedicure, I asked Amy if they have available hour for facial deep cleansing and body massage. She said, ok they have available time for me. After mani and pedi they said Massage room is ready. But room that I was not expected as professional. There is not Magnifying loupe, hot towel cabby, and brush machines. I asked them where is the cleansing frequency machine. The girl who is going to massage to me said brought and showed me hand manual brush cleanser. Then I realized it is not right. Also I made request Dermalogica brand on my facial. But Amy told me if I use Dermalogica brand they will charge $ 50 extra. I decided to not having massages for cold, open ceiling room and unprofessional equipment.
Amy did not focus on customer service. She just focused on making side money while she is having facial customer in her room. She should treat customer equal!!! I will not go anymore there.

I love their massage chairs and added hot stone massage. great color selection and Gina is amazing!
Update– TONY did my OPI gel color polish change yesterday and did a great job! Fast and precise.

WOW Nails is great. Their pedicures are the best I’ve ever had, especially for the price (clean, detailed, relaxing). I had to get a pedicure while I was on vacation and it was terrible; made me appreciate WOW even more. I’ve had consistent quality service from everyone there. Not to mention, they are very friendly.

Special Monday to Thursday Mani & Pedi $ 35
We offer sugar scrub, oil hot stone massage and finish with moisture lotion
«WOW» women’s of wonderful at WoW !
All services with responsible first

Always amazed by the attentiveness of this staff. Love having Gina recognize and welcome me as a friend each time I’m here. Their spa pedicure and waxing are my regular treats for myself; but their massages and facials are just as wonderful!

So here’s an update~ I suppose any nail salon that isn’t run by the owners themselves you have to find a technician that fits your style~~ well after coming back 3 times since my last update I have found mine~~ Lena she’s great she’s very meticulous and really pays attention to what you need ~~ she’s not much for conversation which I don’t mind bc I prefer to just relax as well so we agree on that end. :) regardless u can see that my stars went up for WOW and I’m so happy I found a match :)

I had a very positive experience at WOW Nails & Day Spa. The facility is clean, welcoming, and the staff is very warm & friendly. Plus, the prices are definitely right: I got a regular pedicure, regular manicure, and an eyebrow wax for $ 45!
I really liked that both my manicure and pedicure, despite being «regular,» included a sugar scrub, and my polish looks good. Unfortunately, my friend who I went with asked for a gel manicure but it got dented and cracked shortly after leaving. Which, you know, shouldn’t happen with gel. Well, turns out that they accidentally used regular nail polish instead of gel. Oops! They did rectify their mistake when she went back a little later, which is good, but put a slight damper on the post-​nail euphoria, haha.
Still, even with that mishap I would definitely return to WOW to get my nails did. The pricing is good, the experience was great for me, and they did a great job on my eyebrow cleanup too!

I only came for waxing. Amy was so nice and made me feel comfortable. She even explained to me what she was going to do and why in that particular technique. The process was quick and slightly painful. The room was clean tho.
They accept cards but prefer to tip in cash. It will not be included on the card. I won’t really be coming back just because it’s a little pricey versus other spa establishments.

I’m a regular here and this is the only place I go to get my nails done! Pedicures include hot stones and they give you a discount if you come on a weekday. They also sterilize their equipment which is always a must for me!
My pedicures last at least a month and my Shellac manicures last around 3 weeks before they start chipping. The staff is very personable and want to make you a loyal customer. I really have no complaints!

The technician I had was very friendly and sweet. She didn’t speak to other nail techs the whole time which I appreciated. She even recognized a few of her customers walking in the door. I was in and out in about 20 – 25 minute with a regular gel mani for $ 33. With tip it was $ 40 total. Quick, friendly, awesome!
Here are three things that I probably won’t return because of:
1) The gel mani was uneven (no bubbles, but really weirdly bumpy)
2) They chipped in 2 days
3) More expensive than other places I’ve been to
I’m super bummed since I usually don’t like to branch out with nail salons, but found this place due to their great reviews. It seems other people had a great experience so perhaps it was just a fluke!
Tips: Free parking in front, parking garage also available.

As nice as they are, I will not come back again. My nails were not evenly filed and the service was quick. I felt like the nail tech didn’t take her time and some what rushed through it. For the amount I paid it is not worth it.

This is not a place of over-​the-​top luxury, BUT you get quality services for a very competative price. I’m a regular here, and consider myself extremely fortunate that these ladies set up shop underneath my apartment complex.
Everyone is very nice and are going to get you in, seen, and out in a reasonable amount of time no matter how busy they are. I am always satisified anytime I get a manicure, pedicure, or waxing. I even got a facial and back treatment and am very pleased with the results.
One thing I hesitate to try here is their massage… anytime I have gotten a hand or foot massage as a part of their other packages, they have been extremely rough — I don’t think O could have that all over my body for an hour. But everything else I highly recommend.

Sadly this rating gradually went down in the few hours after my pedicure. I left thinking I would give them a four since even though it wasn’t the best nail painting job in the world, everything else was great. I got the spa pedicure (non-​gel) and it included the standard cutting and shaping plus paraffin, leg scrub, some foot and leg massage, lotion, pumice scrub, callous removal, a minty clay treatment (I think? it certainly smelled minty), hot stone massage, and hot towels. I was super relaxed during the whole process and they offered water or tea and magazines.
I thought it seemed to take an oddly long time when she was painting my nails and looking back I wonder if she put too many coats on. In any case, one nail was still wet over an hour later (I still don’t even know how that’s possible) and it got all smeary and stained my couch when I had my feet up. All the other nails were totally dry so I still have no clue what happened. I might give them another try next time I can afford a pedi but they’re definitely occasional treats for me so it already being messed up is super disappointing.

Yes, yes, yes.
I have become a regular here for good reason. This is not your regular nail factory. You get what you pay for. They are not the cheapest place in town but it is worth the couple of extra dollars. They take their time and make sure that they are giving you the best services. They are exceptionally friendly and quickly get to know you by name. Almost every time I walk in the door, someone greets me by name even if I dont have an appointment. I have some specific issues that they work to give me the best solutions for. I have never been disappointed with the level of service or quality of work. They want to earn your loyalty and make you a loyal customer. They have me!
They are a full service nail salon and spa. They offer almost everything. Multiple «levels» of manis and pedis. The standard level is not missing anything but if you have the time and the money, each level that you move up is worth the extra. They do gel, acrylic and pink and white. I don’t do designs but I have seen the ones that they have done on other customers and for my daughter and they do a great job. They offer different styles of massage. They do amazing facials. They also do eyelashes. I have not done this myself but one of my employees goes to them for this and she loves it.
The salon is always clean and they always have great music playing in the background.
If you don’t find parking out front in the street, I will say that the parking lot isn’t perfectly direct but it is free garage parking so that is a plus. They accept major credit cards but be prepared to tip in cash as it is strongly preferred. Also, they are closed on Sundays. If you need to get in on a weekend day, make it happen on Saturday.
I truly can’t say enough about this place, their service and their staff. I just truly love it there.
Oh, also look out of specials. They will have signs posted with the specials that they have going on or you can sign up for their email list. They do not blow up your inbox but they do keep you informed of the specials going on. Often the specials are for M-​Th.

I have to update my review since I’ve been reached out twice now from the «owner» Trang perhaps. At either rate, her unprofessional attempt to handle my review was very uncalled for and speaks volume to what type of establishment she wants to continue running the salon.
I wrote this review based on what I experienced truthfully and honestly and if the salon owner doesn’t take the words of advice to improve the salon, but instead wants to reach out and make unprofessional comments of my review, then there’s not much else I can do. You’ve been warned so come at your expense. I honestly don’t like seeing an establishment charge an extreme amount of money for lash extension done incorrectly and will not last.
I decided to let her comment go the first time, but now that the owner privately messaged me again to make another inappropriate comment, I highly do not recommend going to this place and have updated my review to take off an additional star. Highly unprofessional.
Also as previously experienced, these lashes did not even last two weeks when they typically should last up to three weeks. I had them redone by another salon that I had a great experience and learned a lot more about lash extensions.

I came in last week in need of a liquid gel refill. I had gone to Nail Bonita in Falls Church City 2x and was super disappointed. Amy at WOW suggested that she remove the entire set, as they were broken and my nails were yellowing after 2 weeks (Nail Bonita is horrible). Any took the time to make my nails PERFECT. I’m a nail fanatic and am never satisfied with a manicure as I do a better job than 99% of nail techs, but Amy was meticulous and did an amazing liquid gel mani with gel polish on top. GO SEE HER! This salon rocks

I come here religiously and have had nothing but wonderful experiences! The ladies are amazing and take very good care of you. I came this visit to have my gel manicure removed, let me say it lasted three full weeks! That is good for a gel manicure. Service was great as usual!
Those that say it’s over priced are misleading because they have some of the best prices in the area. Most places charge $ 35 to $ 45 for a gel and here it’s $ 25 on Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday through Saturday it’s $ 28.
As for the messed up nails after a gel removal, that’s not fair since you are getting something that was adhered to your nail to come off. And with mani’s anywhere your lucky if they last a day depending on what you do with your hands.
I say to anyone come here and you will leave happy!
