went in for a mani/pedi. This was the first time I had been here because I couldn’t get into my regular place. It should have been cheaper but it turned out being the same price of $ 80 something with tax and tip(included gel polish for my hands) The daughter did my pedi which was fine. a bit rough and she cut my nails extremely short but I would probably go back again — hence the 2 stars. The mother had done my gel mani. I asked for a darker colour which she tried to talk me out of(4 times) and after it was finished I understood why. The colour was all over my cuticles and you could see all of the imperfections. when she said she was finished she started so far from the base of my nail it looked like they were a week old. She cut my cuticles badly in three different spots and then blamed it on me twice saying that its because I have thin skin(this has never happened at any other place I’ve gone too). One of the cuts continued to bleed until I got home. She also took a call from her husband and chatted with him on speaker phone while she did my nails(not in English) which was the opposite of relaxing. I would not go back to have her do my manicure again.

Based on the good reviews I decided to visit this place but unfortunately my experience was not the best one. I went for a hair cut, My hairstyle was an inverted LOB(when the front is longer than the back) I asked to cut about 0,5−1 inch, take out the volume and to KEEP the hairstyle basically my visit was only for maintenance. The first problem was that she killed my hairstyle, the front has now the same length that the back, like a channel :(, so disappointing and second I don’t think she has experience cutting curly hair because using those toothed scissors she took off volume from the top of my head leaving me with frizz. I felt like she didn’t pay attention to what I wanted…

took someone special for a mani pedi, she received excellent service and excellent work done on her nails. we both loved the atmosphere and environment it felt super comfortable. however, I felt like I paid way to much($ 80.00 including $ 11.00 tip). included a pic of her manicure.

$ 40 mani-pedis without the fumes and nice friendly staff. 1 tv per couple. Worth every penny.

If you state that you are open from 10am, then you should be or at the very least, put a message in the window. But apparently, after asking around, this happens a lot. Will not try again.

this was the best nail place I’ve been to in vancouver.(note, I go a few times a year I’m not a seasoned nail professional lol) small but good. don’t expect frills at this place. no massage chairs or jetted tubs, but you leave with awesome looking nails. the girl I had spent so much time fileing and shaping my nails, and made sure they were even. with the polish she was very meticulous and when all was said and done my nails came out perfect. they use disposable files and buff blocks too. and the girls my friend and k had were really nice :) gave us space to talk but we’re still friendly.

$ 85 for a gel mani/pedi. The girl working on my mother was quick and efficient. They accommodated us last minute so that is greatly appreciated. The two working on me were a bit slow but got the job done. It’s been a week and a half and I have a couple chips already which is disappointing. If the price was a bit lower I would be back – UPDATE! + 1 star. This lasted 4 weeks with only the two minor chips attained during the first 9 days. Very little lift and colour stayed fairly glossy. Definitely recommend.

$ 25 for a pedi! Sweet! The chairs are super comfy too. Only complaint is I wish they had jets in the foot tubs. Great staff though!

I saw the great reviews on Unilocal and needed a pedi so I came to this place. It was also very close to the hotel I was staying at and that was a bonus because it was raining and I was on foot. First impression: The interior of the place was very clean and cozy which was nice and had four pedicure chairs and two salon chairs for hair cuts. 5 stars for cleanliness. Service: When I got there it was just before noon on a Monday and I believe I was the first customer of the day as it looked like the people who worked there had just arrived minutes before I did. I was helped by a young lady(I think her name is Laura) who gave me a pretty standard pedicure. It was clean and thorough which I liked with a short foot massage at the end which I appreciated. It wasn’t amazing but she did a good job and she was very very nice and I would definitely come back to have her do my pedicures in the future. I did a shellac polish instead of regular because I’m leaving to go on vacation soon and they had an ok selection of colours… they didn’t have as many as I would have liked but I found a colour I was happy with so it wasn’t a huge deal. My pedicure took about thirty minutes from start to finish. Price: I paid 45 plus tax and added a 5 dollar tip when the girl asked the owner how much my service was. I was a bit disappointed because I read reviews that the pedis are 25 dollars here so I paid an extra 20 for shellac colour? I left a bit confused but I decided not to bother saying anything because the girl was so nice. I will probably ask about the price in advance next time so I don’t feel ripped off if I come back here for a shellac or for any service for that matter. Im giving 3 stars because everything was great except the price. I would have given 4 or 5 stars if I had paid like 30 or 35 max but i feel like I over paid for a service that was honestly nothing above what I can usually get for a lot cheaper someplace else.

First time since I moved to Vancouver and really happy with my haircut. I asked for layers and the owner lady did a great job, she knew what she was doing specially dealing with my curly/wavy hair, she first did a few trims on wet hair, then dried it and straighten it to continue cutting over straight hair to make an even trim. Excellent. Very reasonable prices so I will be back.

I just moved here so it was hard finding a place for a decent price. I went onto their website and saw mani/pedi for 40 $ so I called and made an appointment for Saturday for my friend & I. The experience was good, chairs are comfortable and the people are sweet. But once we were leaving I noticed we were over charged so I had to clarify the price. She said it the 40 $ is just a promo for mon — wed so I asked if that was on their website and she said no. I believed I should have gotten the difference back but she did not give it to me. I will not go back there. False advertising.

I love this place! The price is the best in the area from what I’ve seen, and I have never had a bad manicure or pedicure. The chairs are also extremely comfortable! The unfortunately do not have the largest selection of nail polishes.

Moving to a new area in Vancouver means finding a new nails, hair, lashes, tanning salons etc. Life is complicated when you move!!! Trying out new salons my nail got beaten to a pulp… but this salon fixed them up and showed me how they love and care for nails rather than throw me through the pulper to get another in my seat. Excellent prices, comfort, manicure. Thank you I’ve been searching for a place in yaletown to get a decent affordable mani/pedi. They have recently renovated and their set up is extreme comfort. My nails have been destroyed from other salons over buffing but she was so gentle and gave a great mani which was only $ 15. I opted for French vynil lux which was an additional $ 5 and totally worth every cent. Everyone was so nice as well and I felt very comfortable in the salon. 4 stars and could have been 5 but I was left sitting for a little while before mani and changed manicurist during the mani. This doesn’t bother me so much because I’m not in a hurry during my «beauty days» but if I was it could have been a little irritating. I’ve finally found my salon in yaletown!

I had a mani/pedi here and Linda and her Mom did a great job and were very pleasant. It’s a small salon with nice music playing and recently re-modled. $ 15 for Mani and $ 25 for pedi is reasonable I think. I recommend Bliss.

It is a small salon with massage chairs. It only costs $ 25.00 for a pedi and $ 15.00 for a mani. I went in for a pedi and the ladies working there were friendly and did a good job on my feet. I would definitely go back.
