One of the WORST manicures I have ever gotten. I just left VNK Nail Salon 5 minutes ago and as you can see in the pictures it does not look like I have a fresh manicure. To start, I requested a Milly white polish color (I donot recall the name/number). The manicurist simply said white, and proceeded to use that “white-out - white”, which looked really bad because my nails were not buffed and the polish went on very lumpy. I quickly selected an alternate polish (she blamed it on the polish), but because my nails were not buffed any whatsoever so the polish is not smooth. She just put the polish on thicker as though it would make it better. She butchered my cuticles with a choppy choppy motion, so again you can see for yourself how the cuticles look. No cuticle cream was used and she gave me ice cold water to soak my hands in. I said it was too cold, so she replaced it with lukewarm, but still no actual cuticle cream to soften the cuticles. My nails were also filed haphazardly; one edge is rounded while the other is square on most of the nails. The polish itself is not neat and absolutely zero moisturizer was placed on my hands at the end, so (again you can see in the photos) my skin is totally dry and ashy after soaking in the cold water. I can only imagine that the poor service is related to not having tips/acrylics or anything. It’s as though requesting a nice manicure on my real nails is a total inconvenience. Unfortunately I am a physician in a surgical specialty and I perform female gyne exams, therefore I cannot have long nails or any acrylic.
This was an absolute waste of my time and now I must use another 2 hours to get them done again...
Read moreI recently visited VNK nails & spa, and I cannot recommend it enough, especially thanks to their amazing nail tech, Peter. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and relaxing. The staff was friendly, and the space was spotless. Peter truly went above and beyond to deliver a perfect experience. They were patient, attentive, and incredibly skilled. I came in with a vague idea of what I wanted, and they brought it to life better than I could have imagined. The precision in their work was unmatched, and the end result was stunning—smooth, flawless nails that exceeded my expectations. What stood out most was their genuine care. They ensured I was comfortable throughout and took time to explain how to maintain my nails for longer-lasting results. It’s rare to find someone who combines artistry with such professionalism. If you're looking for impeccable service and a nail tech who is truly passionate about their craft, Peter, at VNK Nails & spa, the one to see. I’m already looking forward to my next appointment! Pedicure was amazing. Definitely recommend....
Read moreI rarely write reviews but I am so disappointed with VNK nails. I recently came in, and things were completely changed from last I visited. Change is not bad but one big noticeable change was the lack of normal polish. They were pushing gel polish and gave only the gel polish as a regular polish for pedicures.
I do not like gel but they assured me the polish they had would work. It was a disaster! 1.They do not have any dryer so my nails immediately got ruined, they did kindly fix it, but not without mentioning how I should have gotten gel like 3x.
The gel polish is not designed to be used without iUV lighting so 3 days later all my nails have peeled and chipped.
I’ve gotten my nails done by this facility before, they were very nice, I was willing to spend the extra money from their competitors up the street. But, even high end places have normal OPI polish and other brands of polishes and a mechanism to dry your nails. They are out of touch with their location and customers.
If I were you I would pay more for a nicer place or pay less for...
