Zizi Pedispa & Nails

My wife and I came in for the sleep lavender pedicure and it was absolutely amazing. I would recommend Ana/​Lily they were both amazing.

Do not get a full set there by Katy! I told her thin and natural looking and she made them the complete opposite. I came home and my boyfriend said my nails looked like the chiclet gum… $ 40 full set down the drain. Then Katy did my toe polish change and did only the middle part of my toes… My niece could do a better job. Jason the manager saw them and came to fix them himself. I called Jason the next day about my full set and said they were too busy but will call me back… It’s been a week and a half, and still never received a call. Bad experience and service. Will not be going back

It’s pretty expensive for what you get. Clipped my toe nails crooked, didn’t completely polish the entire nail on two toes.
My daughter got her first «mani/​pedi» this visit. Now, she is two and the girl did great, my daughter was super happy, but when we got home two hours later, the whole entire nail of polish came off, in one piece. I don’t know what she did, but even the cheap crap I use at home stays on for a day or two, rather than 2 hours. She was super disappointed. Which sucks because to do a super quick polish on tiny nails and toes, they charge $ 10.
For me, what they do is not work the $ 50 plus tip you’re expected to leave.

I went here on a whim, my friends have always come here and loved it. I was skeptical but it was a great decision coming here. I had Holly and she was the nicest person that has ever done my nails. Usually it’s kind of awkward when you are getting your nails just sitting there. But we had conversation and was really sweet. I would go back because I am really LOVE my nails and I hope to go back soon. Really recommend Holly and Tony!

I don’t want to give this a particularly hard review but at the same time I don’t have much to go on.
Sunday April 19^th, 2015; I decided to go for a quick basic manicure. When I arrived there was a short wait (10 – 15 minutes) and a fairly busy salon. They have updated the interior since the last time I went so its bright and cheerful. It’s very lovely inside.
My request was a foil removal of existing polish and a mani with no polish. A 20 minute job at max. I waited my turn and when I was assigned to the tech he examined my nails and completely disregarded my request. He grabbed a cotton ball covered in acetone. He tries to remove it and after a moment he steps away (I assume to grab foil). When he returns he’s got an emery board and buffer.
I tell him I don’t want him to file the polish off. And he tells me its the only way to remove it. I ask if there is foil and he didn’t answer.
Finally I say «if the you just don’t want to do it, let me know and I can go» to which he replied «I don’t want to».
So I left.
I’m not angry but I am annoyed. If you say that you provide a service you should provide that service when requested. If the concern is that it’s a timely service, then charge for that time. Every other salon when will not drill or scrape off polish when requested. Every one except this one.
I’m not going to say that I received poor service because I didn’t receive any service.

My wife took me here for Valentine’s Day. I have to say I now understand the whole thing women have with pedicures. I wear boots for work pretty much every day and this made my feet so relaxed. I must say, I’m sold! Sitting next to my wife, cracking jokes made it a really cool experience.

Had a wonderful, relaxing experience today here. The salon was super clean and the employees were extremely friendly. Highly recommend!

I came in from out of town and took some family there as a Christmas present. They had a good time. Unfortunately, mine was not as good. The guy who did my nails, I think his name was Tony, didn’t get close to my cuticles when painting so it looked like it had already grown out a week. I asked him to get closer and then the edges turned out horrible and wobbly. He didn’t even try to clean up the polish that had gotten on my skin.
The biggest issue was that they had a coupon on their website, «15% off of any services valued at $ 60 and up!» which they refused to take. They said it was only for any ONE service that was 60 or more. No where on the coupon did it say only valid for one service but it does say services, plural and they refused to honor it.
The people I were with enjoyed it, were treated well. The ladies that worked on them did a great job and that’s why I gave two stars. If it was just me it would have been zero stars.

CND RAW EARTH PEDICURE is way too good for any of you who are having tired, painful feet! It’s really WARM. When I first soak my feet in, omg words can’t describe how amazing it is. Plus it’s organic so there’s nothing to worry about. They put honey on my feet to massage. Their hot stone, paraffin wax and srub are also amazing. I’ll come back soon :)

I gotta say, I’m no girlie girl and I came here with a friend who recommended the place. Very nice inside with an aesthetically pleasing atmosphere. My manicurist was very sweet but man I do not like my nails. I chose the «gel» shellac type manicure and have seen it before on others — very cute right?
Wrong. At least for me. And she kept working on it over and over again to make it right but it looks tacky and smudgy. Not too impressed with my pedicure either. Should’ve kept the $ 70 and stayed home to do my own nails… which is what I’ll do next time. On another note, my friend’s gel manicure looked great so perhaps I got unlucky with my manicurist.

I went in for gel polish. Asked what it would cost-​was told $ 35. I asked if that included everything because the last place I went nickel and dimed me to almost $ 50. Was told that was the price. The gal was nice and my nails looked pretty. When I checked out I was told the cost would be an extra $ 5 for the French. It’s now 4 days later and the gel ha peeled off every nail. I won’t go back.

I have been to this place a total of three times and the first two time the service was fine… But I will NOT be returning here. I returned here to get my gel nails done on a Friday by Saturday evening my nail polish were peeling up. Now with gel nails they suppose to last two weeks… And mines usually does. So I am thinking it must be the brand of nail polish. I will just go back and get a different brand… No! They want to charge me an additional 25 bucks to change brands! When I paid 40 bucks for the set and it didn’t even last a day… I was highly upset. Why in the world would I choose the same brand when it will just pill up again. So I just had her to redo it at no charge with the same brand and as I am typing this my nails has start pilling up yet again and I got them redone on Sunday and it is now Tuesday… Customer service sucks and they are to pricey not to cater to the customer concerns especially when the product they are using isn’t lasting 2 weeks like it suppose to!

Me and my girlfriends came here to get manis & pedis last weekend and we had a great experience! The place has been remodeled beautifully & the staff was attentive & extremely catering to us. We have visited many salons in Arlington & this was definitely one of the better ones. We will definitely be coming back!

Love this place! Vinny did my pedicure today and it’s the best I’ve ever had! Everytime I go here it’s wonderful!

Had a wide selection of shellac colors to choose from. Downside was it took 2 hours to just get my manicure done. Had a few fingers that I believe should be redone.

Mani + cool cucumber pedi ($ 35) = $ 70 including tip.
Cool cucumber pedi was interesting. The lady massaged my legs then wrapped my feet with ice cold cucumber slices and lotion. They really stayed true to their title. The other Unilocalers raved about the chairs. Mine was a little broken so It didn’t really relax me. It kept doing its own thing which was frustrating. I asked for a french manicure and it was ok. I had to tell her to fix it a few times because the white polish she was using kept streaking. She was a good sport about it so I left a happy camper.
This is a place to get your pedis on. Would I get a pedi here again? Most definitely. I’m still a little iffy about a mani though — she left a few ridges on my nail bed when she was buffing it with a coarse buffer :(

Best Nail Salon in Arlington! I thoroughly enjoyed my first time experience at this salon. I’ve been looking for someone who can do a good pedicure and has experience doing shellac mani’s. Mindy was fantastic! They give you this warm neck roll while you get your pedicure, which you select out of menu of choices of pedicures (clearly their specialty). And then she did my shellac manicure quickly but precisely. It is a bit more expensive here than I typically pay, but I’m learning that in this particular instance, you get what you pay for! I will definitely be going back, sooner rather than later. =)

I read the other reviews and hoped they had cleaned up their act. What I found was a FILTHY salon. The only saving grace was that everyone there was SO friendly. Please clean the salon ZIZI. I want to feel like I can come back and leave disease free.

ZiZi’s massage chairs are wonderful. I would gladly pay to just put my feet in the warm water and enjoy the massage chair for an hour… but they also happen to do the best manicures and pedicures in town.
I used to think I could only get a good, fast manicure that would last in NYC. I don’t know why, but a $ 10 Manhattan manicure always blew away anything I ever got anywhere else.
Until…the shellac mani/​pedi from Zi Zi. Wow. I came out of the salon feeling like I had spent the day at he spa and 1 full week later, even after trip to the beach, the shellac mani/​pedi is still perfect. No chips, no cracks — perfect. Worth every penny.
Tip: KidsPark hourly childcare is on the other side of the Arlington Highlands. You have to pay membership fee, but don’t need reservations which makes it super easy to treat the kids to playtime and yourself to some much needed pampering. I took my kids last week after we spent the morning at Six Flags and came to ZiZi’s to recover!

I have frequented Zizi’s since it first opened, and I have always enjoyed my experiences. I went on 4÷25÷2010, and I chose a Pomegranate and something pedicure. Sonny was my pedicurist, and boy, oh boy, would I recommend him! He put extra strength behind those callouses on each foot! He scrubbed and scrubbed and scrubbed… oh, I’m revealing too much about my footsies. Anyway, I will choose him the next time I’m in.
What disturbed me this time was the cleanliness of the place. Granted it was a busy Sunday around 3 in the afternoon, but the place was filthy. The floor was nasty, the table next to my chair was disgusting, and the bathroom needed a deep cleaning. Nail salons must be sanitary establishments in every aspect, not just the utensils used on the nails. While I am pleased to see clean instruments used by each customer, I want to see that same care used in the shop as a whole.
I will go back to Zizi’s, and I will take my time looking around to see if they’ve cleaned up their act. I sure hope so because Sonny needs to have another «date» with these callouses!

I went there today with a friend to get a pedicure and I have to say it was a great experience. Their salon was very clean, the equipment was new (granted, they are relatively new anyway…).
Apparently, you don’t just get options of the usual pedicure or spa pedicure. They literally have a book. Like a menu of sorts of all kinds of different types of pedicures you can get. You know that feeling when you have too many options you have absolutely no idea what to pick. So you are the asshole customer that just makes your server coming back to see if you have made up you mind? This was like so.
I had their Frappacino massage. It costed me $ 40 (I gave her a $ 6 tip on top of that). The pedicure lasted an hour. $ 40 and an hour gave me: my cuticles tended (it was a jungle down there), a nail trim, a sloughing of my calluses, a scrub that smelled like coffee (how can you hate the smell of coffee?), a moisturizer that didn’t smell like coffee, a parrafin wrap/​dip thingy, a massage, polish (and the good stuff too — Essie and OPIs) and a actual drinkable frappacino. And I have to say, for a non coffee shop, it was actually, pretty darn good. So I say the $ 40 was well worth it.
I would definately recommend this to my friends who need a little pampering more so than the usual pedicure that lasts 30 minutes.
