Top Nails & Spa

Confused by the positive reviews. I’m from out of town and just stopped in for a manicure. She spent the entire time trying to sell me a gel mani, making comments about my nails being too short, and rushing through the manicure like crazy. Barely filed, no cuticle oil before cutting away, etc. Super sloppy polish job, and then there was nowhere to dry and she has no fan. I just sat there for 2 minutes, then she came over and touched my nails to see if they were dry (they weren’t), then killed the entire polish job by drenching them in drying spray. I just left and I’m going to get them redone somewhere else… yikes.

I love coming here. They are nice, quick with nails, and do a stellar quality job. I’ve tried other spots, but come here for their consistent good job. The powder shellac stays on for 3 weeks or more. I get them redone because of wanting a color change and the growth versus the nails looking bad.

We love Top Nails in Holladay. My daughter and I go in for Mani/Pedi’s regularly. She’s a kid (7) and they always treat her so well. They are super efficient and do both services at the same time whenever possible. There’s not a lot of pressure for upsale and they are very hospitable. I really enjoy coming here!

I randomly stumbled upon this place one day after work and was so impressed by the quality that I’ll never go anywhere else as long as I live in Salt Lake.
I started with the hot stone pedicure, which was heavenly. The pedi spas were clean (they use liners which is really nice), the leg massage superb, and the stones were heated to perfection. I didn’t get anything fancy, but I was impressed with the quality!
I also got their dipping powder manicure, and let me just say, it lasts for so long! I’ve had this manicure for about 3 weeks now with no chips. If my nails hadn’t grown out, you wouldn’t be able to tell I’d had it for so long. This is the acrylic nails for people who don’t like acrylic nails. I type all day as part of my job, so the fact that this manicure has held up this long is incredible.
The only downside is that since they try to accommodate everyone who walks in, the service can sometimes be a little slow. Making an appointment doesn’t guarantee that the service will be quick. I recommend not going right after work if you don’t want to wait. However, this is by far my favorite nail salon, they have affordable prices, and excellent service.

This place seems to be fairly clean, they use liners in the pedi spas, which is always a huge plus in my book. I’m not one hundred percent convinced how clean the tools were, as they didn’t pull them from sealed packages. The massage chairs are pretty decent, and the quality of the polish job is okay. They always use a dremmel to remove the shine from your nail, which is not s great thing if you get regular pedicures or manicures.
It’s not my favorite nail salon, but I’ve been her twice and I’m sure I will be back since it is reasonably priced and in a great location.

This place is my favorite nail salon in salt lake! I don’t like paying too much but I also want new nail polish, cleanliness and friendly staff. It’s a perfectly happy middle ground!

Very welcoming staff as soon as I walked in. I just moved here from Illinois so it was nice to see friendly and inviting faces. I didn’t have to wait, they got right to work on my pedicure. I enjoyed every minute (the foot massage was just what I needed after driving 20+hours to get here).
I enjoyed having the option to watch tv on top of the regular reading of magazines and playing on my phone. I love the idea of spa liners in the pedicure tubs and prices were very reasonable.
Although this didn’t pertain directly to me, the owner and another customer (getting a pedicure) engaged in personal conversation; asking about one’s new baby and new job location). This made me feel that they cared personally about those that step foot in their door.
Only reason for 4 stars is because I feel no place is perfect, everyone has room for improvement. They also do not do the nail art anymore that I had seen on their website, which I had planned to get done next time.
All in all a nice place and I plan to return, hoping to make this my ‘home’ nail spot:)

I don’t get manicures and/​or pedicures often, so when I get them I want them to be perfect, since I usually need them done before a special occasion such as a party or going on vacation. I’ve been a couple times to nail salons inside the malls in the SL area, as well as to professional manicurists who work from their salons at home. I can tell you that from all the places I’ve been to, Top Nails & Spa in Holladay is the place where I’ve received the best regular and gel polish. The polish from my pedicures last a long time before chipping, at least a month if not more. Same with the gel manicures. And on top of that, they look perfect and smooth, most of the time. I say most of the time because this last time I went in (in fact, last weekend), the pedicure I got was ok (remember, I’m very picky). I think the girl was new because I hadn’t seen her working there before. So that’s the reason why I deducted one star from my review. But that won’t stop me of going there. They’re still the best place to get a mani/​pedi done, even though they’re pricier than the salons in the malls.
Oh, and if you need to get your eyebrows waxed, they do that very well too. The salon in general is very clean too.
Just be aware there might be a waiting time if you walk in. I still try to figure out the times when they’re not busy ;)
