Unique Nail Salon & Spa

Family owned and operated. Salon is pretty. I had a wonderful pedicure with V but it looked like everyone was happy with the services they received.

Super nice place! At first I wasn’t thrilled because not all of the lights were on and I couldn’t see the color of the polish very well. Once we got started I didn’t mind because it was super relaxing. My nail tech was very nice and did such a great job! I definitely want to go back again! Next time I will get a pedicure as well!

I came in and got an acrylic set put back on after our move that destroyed my nails and the prices were good so I had high hopes. I was helped by a middle aged man and my mother was helped by a younger man; the place was nice and the workers there seemed very friendly and helped us get in right away, however, I will not be returning. Long story short my fingers hurt so badly because of the rough work of my technician. My nails turned out looking nice but the pain to get there is no where near worth it. I told him I had just removed my acrylics so obviously the nail is extremely thin but that didn’t stop him from sanding with the machine until it burned or using a nail file roughly. The skin around my nails is shredded because he went too far off my nail when using the machine to sand and smooth the acrylic; 8 of my 10 fingers bled. He also used a extremely coarse nail file to smooth the edges after adding the acrylic and half of the time missed my nail and just sanded the skin right off my finger. Also keep in mind the tools were pulled out of a drawer and had clearly be used already so that’s far from sanitary; what if the tools were used on someone that had been cut before me? Then to make it worse the bonding agent they put on before adding the acrylic powder got into all the cuts and stung like crazy as well as the alcohol he added even after seeing the visible cuts around my nails. Despite my countless hints of pulling my hand away when it hurt he continued to nick my skin and sand it down with the nail file. I even had to remind him to use the pointed dremel under my nail because there was a ton of excess acrylic underneath to the point where I couldn’t pull my skin away from the tip of the nail; he somehow overlooked that. My mom told me her experience was very similar.
My mom and I have been getting acrylics/​fills done for years and have gone to many different places so we know the basics of what is normal and what is not and understand there are a variety of ways people do nails, however, this way is not a right way; we’ve never experienced pain like this from a male or female technician, it’s inexcusable. Please keep in mind this is not a reflection of the whole company but the two men that helped us were far too rough and we will not be coming back because of our experience. I urge you to request one of the females if you come here because they may have a more gentle technique.

I am in Fort Collins for business and wanted to get a pedicure. So, my first place to check reviews is always Google and Unilocal.I must say the staff at Unique Nail Salon were extremely helpful and hardworking. Sue and her daughters are very sweet and the deluxe pedicure was fab! I will definitely be going back next week for a fill-​in!!! Extensive selection of gel nail colors, I have never seen so many color choices! I would definitely consider myself a «nail snob» because after 20+ years getting my nails done, it is a fact that not all nail salons are created equal. My personal preference for a nail salon is focused towards searching out talented nail techs from Vietnam and this salon hit the nail right on the head on many points! Make an appointment or just drop in, you will be very happy you did! :0)

Staff are genuinely helpful and hard working to satisfy the needs of customers that walk in. If you see something wrong or out of place, make sure you speak up and address it with management so everyone can improve for a better quality service.

I went to get a rebase earlier in the week and didn’t have an appointment. I only had to wait about 10 minutes and they set me up in one of the massage chairs while I waited. The gal that did my nails was nice but a little rough with the drill. My cuticles are a little beat up and the rebase isn’t the best I’ve had but it was reasonably priced and didn’t take too long.

I stopped in for a quick basic manicure. Pros: it was definitely quick. I was in and out within 25 minutes. The service included trimming filing and painting my nails, but no massage, cuticle oil, or moisturizer of any kind. Colorado is dry! So even though I left with my nails painted my cuticles and hands were still white dry and flaky. Unfortunately, it did not meet my expectations for a $ 15 manicure. I will say I have received a decent pedicure at this location in the past.

We called ahead to this place, asking if they had room for 5 of us (Family was here for the weekend). I understand that’s a lot of people, but I also expect them to tell me if they can’t accommodate us.
We showed up when we said we were going to, and every single one of their 14 – 15 pedicure chairs were full… when we asked again if they had room for us, they said yes, it would be just a few minutes. We waited about 5 – 10 minute before they sat us in the chair (basically to trap us), and then we waited … and waited… and waited. I kept waiting for more people to come out to help, but there were only 5 people there for the entire salon. We kept trying to get up and leave, and they kept telling us just a few more minutes.
By the time they got to us, we had waited over an hour. They then did such a poor job that the polish was all watery looking, and we all had to walk out with our nails still wet. The next day I had scabs and sores on my foot because they had scrubbed it raw, and I could hardly walk.
When I tried to complain, there was no one to complain to — no one spoke English well enough to understand what I was saying. They just nodded their head politely, smiling, and said thank you. Give me my $ 25.
Do NOT go here if you are in a hurry. The place looks clean and sanitary, but I would worry about the cleanliness, knowing what I do about how it’s run. I would choose pretty much any other salon in Fort Collins over this one.

I went here for the first time the other day and was highly impressed! Not only was Luis friendly, but he also took his time. We had a great conversation throughout my manicure and pedicure, and silence wasn’t awkward. He went out of his way to serve me. He even removed calluses, which other salons charge extra for. This will be my new frequented salon, for sure. Lastly, it’s beautiful inside… Completely brand new and large TVs. I also witnessed the thorough cleaning of the pedicure station, which made me feel very comfortable.
