Artistic Nails & Spa

Love this place! I came back here to get my eyebrows and lip waxed. The lady’s name who did it is Tran — she is awesome. She was very friendly when I walked in and pleasant to talk to. She takes her time and is meticulous in her work, which is what you want when someone is shaping/​waxing your brows! This place is clean and modern inside. They have fair and competitive prices. Getting both my eyebrows and lips waxed at the same time cost $ 18. Not bad at all! Ask for Tran!

Ummm. yeah they have great massage chairs that grip you nicely and yet also in strange ways. The chairs fits the really tall and those who have short stumpy legs like myself. The bowls are really cool but where’s the back ground music? Atmosphere was sleepy for sure.
Awesome that I could call at 10:02 am on Sunday and book a 10:30 appointment for 3. Got there and had to wait 15 minutes for 2 of 3 chairs which weren’t next to each other. It took another 20 minutes for my daughter to get in the 3^rd chair. It was another 10 minutes before someone was able to work on her little toes. Perhaps it was her age (11) to which they figured it was okay. Since her pedi was cost just as much as the adult it didn’t sit right with me.
The ladies are nice. But my tech was rushing and nicked the hell out of my toe. It wasn’t even the funky broken one that healed crooked. That left a mark and kept stinging all afternoon. We ordered the spa deluxe and I was robbed of the long awaited massage part of the pedi. I stared in complete envy over at my Aunt who’s tech didn’t forget and was very friendly. *grumble, grumble
Because I’m not the smartest before noon, I also got a brow wax. Meh, it was okay but I had to do a little clean up at home. I don’t have hair to spare so I wasn’t brave enough for them to fix it… queue the disgruntled face.
There were a lot of couples and singles stopping by to get checked in so I’ll file this event away as being unlucky. Not the best experience for a girls morning with out of town family. For same price on pedi’s, I will remember to book my favorite place well in advance. I’ve been spoiled and now my first world pedi rant is complete.

Fantastic experience. My husband and I just moved into the area and decided to treat ourselves to mani/​pedis. Kim (the owner) and Stacy were fantastic, very welcoming and easy to talk to. Prices were very reasonable for the amount of time they spent on us, quality of massages, and their standard pedi comes with paraffin wax! Will definitely be back, would recommend this place without hesitation.

Very clean. Great service. Sweet people. Gorgeous glass pedi bowls and massage chairs. Reasonable rates. Free parking.

We chose to go to Artistic based on the reviews here on Unilocal,so figure it’s only fair to write a review! My daughter and I went in for a rare treat — manicures and pedicures for summertime. I used to get pedicures fairly often, and this is one of the best I’ve had. Unbeatable for the price. Same for my daughter, plus they did some lovely art on her big toes. Everyone was friendly, and despite business being brisk, we never felt rushed. Four days have gone by and everything looks as good as day one. Will definitely be back when the opportunity strikes again.

My first Oregon nail salon experience and it was awful. Sloppy, no attention to detail, sad. I should have known when another salon turned me away because they were so busy, and this one was wasn’t so much. I don’t get the glowing reviews. Maybe I just had an inexperienced person working on me today? FYI — You do have to buy the «nail kit» but evidently this is a common practice in OR due to sanitation laws. It’s 2 dollars and you keep it, so it’s not a big deal, especially given a regular pedi is 25 dollars.
Pedicure was underwhelming. Simple nail polish, not much to screw up, but amazingly, she did. All the nails are cut diagonally so they’re really short on the right and really long on the left. How did she manage to do that? I’ve never seen anything like it. Regular pedi came with hot wax, which was poorly executed so was pointless, and a massage, also poorly executed, could have done without.
The shellac manicure is the WORST I have ever had. THE WORST. My nails are uneven, some shorter than others and all cut on a diagonal. The edges were so sharp I actually cut myself on the way home. I had to reshape and file my nails myself. As for the paint job, she didn’t go to the nail bed with the polish, nor to the sides. In fact, I can see my old nail polish on the sides of the nails where the shellac stops. The gel is LUMPY and you can see streaks where she wiggled the brush from side to side across the nail. Then she kept going in with the cuticle cutter and nipping all over the place, she would put it down and kept coming back in with it, I finally just asked her to stop, she was hurting me. Then, I asked for no massage and disgusting lotion all over my arms, but I guess she didn’t understand, because she preceded to drown me in lotion. At this point I stopped the entire charade, went and washed everything off, paid and left.
Horrible experience. Will never return.

Best Gel Polish I have ever had!!! Others wont go all the way to the bed of your nail but she got all the way and its beautiful!!!
Gentle and great attrition to detail! I never write reviews but I was so impressed I just had to sit in the parking lot and wrote one! This is minutes from my house and I will be back!

started going to this salon when they opened… loved the girls… the last 6 months or so the service really sucks… my nails looked horrible, but I kept going back (shame on me)…last straw was in making my appointment and having to sit and wait for ½ an hour… why make appointments!!! I set a deadline (waited another 10 mins) then just got up & walked out!!!
found another salon closer to home, they wanted to know WHO did your nails??? I wouldn’t tell them…
Sorry Kim…
and talking in your language in front of people is extremely rude…

This is my favorite place ever. No one can deny the irritation of going getting your nails done and the ladies sit there and talk in Vietnamese to each other and don’t say a word to you. These ladies are so nice they talk to you in English they talk to each other in English as much as possible. Their work is incredible. It’s a little expensive but completely worth it.

Everyone here does a great job and I always leave feeling pampered and happy with my nails. The only downside is that having an appointment doesn’t matter when they get busy.

Love this place! Very clean and friendly. My pedicure massage was excellent — which is half the reason I go! Highly recommend.

Worst experience in 20 years! Although I have been to this salon previously and have been generally pleased, my recent visit was horrible. I stopped in for a back fill without an appointment and the staff on site was new since my last visit. My nails are uneven, misshapen and look awful. The top coat has bumps from the filing dust and two nails are crooked. This end result took more than an hour and a half! I was very disappointed in the lack of care and customer service by both the tech and owner. I have also never-​ever been charged additionally for a missing nail when getting a fill at any nail salon. Poor workmanship and sloppy results– I will never be a repeat customer again. The only positive parting comment I can offer is the cleanliness and updated condition of the salon. You can expect bad results from this business and any comments or feedback offered from a paying customer are ignored and unwelcome.

Bumping this up to five stars after a few more visits solely based on the amazing customer service. The ladies here are SO NICE. They recently stayed open a little late for me (I didn’t ask! I was ready to just come back the next day!) on a holiday, for starters. That’s above and beyond in my book.
They also were aware that I had an injury and were extra super gentle with my manicure/​massage due to that and are always up for lovely conversation if you’re into that, or fine with quiet if that works better for you.
Bonus: they have a TV. Love it.

its hot and silent in this place. THAT alone makes my skin crawl. The pedicure was nice. Once in a while I got a smile but don’t think your going to have a conversation here. If you like it nice and hot and quiet this is your place!

Very relaxing. I paid 35 for the stone massage. It lasted a nice long while. She used several different types of massage. I
coming back.

Great prices and availability on Sunday. You ladies rock! Bens first manicure /​pedicure

I was entirely unimpressed with this salon, and if I could give no stars I would. I scheduled an appointment and still somehow ended up having to wait for a girl who walked in at the same time as I did, who had no appointment, to go first. I wanted a full set with the powder color. Once I was helped the girl went very slow and made me feel like it was an inconvenience to do my nails at all. She did not do a good rinsing and cleaning her supplies like I have seen in other shops. She did not get the nails to the bottom of my finger nail so my fresh nails looked like they had already been on for a week and needed a fill. Then within only a couple of days they started to pull up and looked awful. Not to mention, for an awful manicure, it was 50 $. Needless to say I will not be going back.

Love this place! The ladies are always so friendly and nice! The salon is absolutely sparkling clean every time I have gone in. The chairs are brand new and very comfy. Their basic pedicure still has a lot of extras that other places would up charge for which is so awesome! I’m going in today for a shellac mani for the first time and can’t wait! Definitely my new nail place!

Very clean and pleasant ladies I have never been there before and was a bit shocked that they make you bring your own buffer and file and if you don’t have one then you buy there’s for a dollar. It’s not horrible but kind of odd. I got French tip solar with gel finish for $ 41. Pretty good job I do appreciate her making them thin and natural and not at all thick and stripperish.

I use to visit the owner at several other shops and followed her every time she moved. Great service and experts at shellac manicures.
