Q Nail & Spa

I wanted to get my nails done after work and I came across this place. I walked in and immediately got taken bacK for a pedicure. I love the dim lighting in thay area. The lady doing my nails was so gentle and gave an incredible massage ( I wear heels practically every day).

Moving on to the manicure, I had glitter gel polish on from before and they removed all of the glitter (most places paint over it). She took her time to file my natural nails so they're all even and shaped. There was no polish on my skin. And the massage .. oh my goodness. PERFECTION. Now to see if the polish lasts.

Tried it out before the holidays and loved it. Definitely a new go to place for me! I wanted something different on my nails and the nail techs did just that. Everyone was friendly and kind, smiles and making sure my needs were met.

I only selected one star because you can't select zero. As to the phrase (0) if you are black ... please do not consider or bring your business here, this alleged business shows no respect and dignity and you are treated with dismissal communication while being talked over by the owner's sister. My lived experience was like kicking a can down the street. I came in as the second client and was told to sit over to Peter even though I was never heard to who I wanted to do my nails but as soon as (2) white women came in they were asked who would they like to do their nails? I called back repeatedly and was talked over and again not respected or heard!!!

Pedicure service was super rushed, skipped several steps, barely clipped my cuticles. I think she actually removed more dead skin from around my toes AFTER she dried my feet and saw how terrible my feet still looked. Even the polish job was rushed and half assed, one of my big toes looked like I had 2 weeks of growth already!! I had to ask her to polish my nail closer to the cuticle. ‍ I had originally asked to have my eyebrows waxed as well, but the pedi was so bad I was scared the same would be true, so I paid my $32 and RAN!

Amazing!! Service is fantastic! Owners are also!! Please check them out! Prices are great also!

It was my first time going to this salon and I wanted medium/short length almond shape acrylic nails. They said $5 extra for shaping but not for length because it wasn't long. They still charged me an extra 3$ for I don't know what and didn't tell me. The man who was doing my nails did a very poor job. I am not one to be too picky and pick out small things or leave bad reviews but my nails look so thick and the polish job was done so poorly. He barely filed the bottom(inside) leaving areas of it so thick and clumpy and put the powder so far from my cuticle making it look grown out within 2 days of getting my nails done. I can see my actual nail from the sides even though I have acrylics. I am so disappointed in what I got done everyone who saw my nails were shocked I got them done at a salon because of the poor job.

My go to girl is Eva she is so friendly and talented. We talk about everything while she's doing my nails. This pic is 2 weeks old but my nails still look great. I love this place

This place is absolutely amazing! Been coming for years won't go to anyone else but Julie and Peter! Great service very clean and professional! Offer many services !

My favorite waitress got her nails done here and these are the prettiest yet..
Never seen anything like this..
She swears by this place. If I was a lady I'd have to check it out

Finally! A local nail salon that knows about the SNS top coat!

After my primary nail salon, Paris Nail and day spa changed owners, I wanted to try another place. Nothing really wrong there but the quality has seemed to change which is expected with new ownership.

I stumbled across Q nails that was closer to me and also had better reviews. This quaint nail shop is tucked in a shopping center and is very close to my home. I read some reviews and decided to give this one a try.

I really think the shopping center is lucky because every store I've gone to here or every business has been exceptional. I bought my wedding dress at the local Tangs, We love BonChon, The diner and the thai restaurant are really good, and there's a Paisanos Pizza which we go to all the time. So the convenience of finding a nail shop here was awesome.
Don't let this small shopping center nail salon fool you. The quality was very good. To my surprise better than my previous nail salon. If you don't have an appointment there maybe a wait. I didn't have anything to do so I didn't mind waiting. But I'm glad I did. The salon is small and quaint so it seems a family owns this one for sure and works there.

My pedicure was amazing and I did my typical SNS. I love this nail system and it's all I want. I used to work in Albany New York and they call it ANC nails and that's how I was introduced to it years ago. They didn't use a gel as the top coat.
Coming home it was hard to find a Virginian nail shop that had heard of it and that uses the top coat that comes with the system and not a gel coat. No in the difference is key and all the nail salons I had went to used only the gel coat. when I did my nails in New York the nails would last 3 to 4 weeks versus when it was a gel top coat it lasted 2 weeks at best.

I had given up on finding a nail salon that knew about it and figured maybe in a year or so it would catch on in Virginia. So I've been having gel coats on top of my dipping powder since I moved back.

I was quite taking a back when I learned this nail salon knew about the actual top coat for the SNS system. I was excited. They they turned out BEAUTIFUL. And I have a feeling that my nails will last a long time.

Goodbye Paris and hello Q nails.
