Bliss Nails & Spa

I’ve gone to Bliss Nails off and on for several years, mostly for a quick eyebrow wax. Today I decided to splurge and get a manicure as well. Never again! The woman doing my nails was going along fine until the manager/​owner came in. She became very nervous and ended up cutting the cuticles on two of my fingers to the quick. One actually has a divot, the other is just ugly. Both ended up bloody and poorly polished. I didn’t complain because I felt there was something odd going on between the employee and manager. In addition, I’m skeptical that they are meeting the sanitary requirements of a nail salon. Fingers crossed (not the bloodied ones!) I don’t end up with an infection. Plain and simple, I won’t ever go back. There are plenty of good nail salons to choose from. This is not one of them.

I’ve gone there twice now and have been very disappointed. Some of the massage chairs don’t work and they don’t seem to care to fix them because it had been a 6+ month time period in-​between times I went. They are over priced for the crappy leg massage and pedicure they give. I usually don’t do reviews or even complain but along with the crappy pedicure I received their customer service is just as crappy.

I am a nail tech and I have been doing nails since 2000. Occasionally I get lazy and would go to random Nail salons, hoping to find someone that does a decent job. When I mean getting my nails done, I’m talking about acrylic nails. So I decided to go here and «I should’ve went with my instincts and do my own nails. «Instead I walked out with crappy nails and butchered cuticles. I strongly do not recommend this place. Like many of the other nails salons I have been too, I haven’t found a place that can do acrylic nails really good. So ladies out there if you decide you want to get your nails done, come see me at «red carpet nails».

I had to actually tell the nail tech that what she was doing was not sanitary! I know better then to go to «these» types of nails salons but was in need of a quick Mai pedi. I had to remind the girl you do not use you own nail to clean up your polish work you use a birchwood stick thank god I brought my own. I was praying I would not get staph! I went ahead and poured rubbing alcohol all over my toe nails and fingernails just to cover my bases. This place is pretty risky. Go anywhere but here

Took my daughter and her friends in to get mani-​pedis. Halfway through the «service,» the manager takes my credit card and presents me with the $ 260 Bill and wants me to fill in the gratuity and sign. I explain that I will complete it when we are finished with the service. I was finished a little while before the girls so I filled out the credit card receipt and put zero on the gratuity line as I always pay gratuities in cash. The manager came over and YELLED at me in front of the entire salon «YOU MEANT YOU ARE NOT GIVING ME TIP?» And slammed the receipt down on the nail station! The girls and I all looked up astonished (as did everyone else in the place) and I explained «I always pay the tip in cash, but, with your attitude, I am compelled NOT to!» She had the nerve to say «we always get 20%!» I then explained that a gratuity is something given when service is exceptional and the way she is behaving is anything but! She then threw a childish tantrum and made my guests move out of their chairs so that she could cause a scene and start slamming the station drawers and acting like a child! Even after they performed a DOZEN shortcuts, have us substandard nails, tried to charge $ 5 extra for EVERY little thing, and were using product in bottles with covered up labels, (which is illegal) I STILL gave the other 4 technicians a tip, but not her. They made $ 50 off each of my guests that day, and NONE of us will ever return.

This is the worst nail salon I have ever been to. I got a pedicure and shellac manicure. The manicure started chipping the next day and the person who provided my services was rushing the whole time. The place stinks (odor) and its dirty. My first thought when I walked in was run back out but I didn’t and wish I would have!

The worst place I have ever been. I literally just walked out and my toes look disgusting. I asked her to take it off after it was bumpy and obviously the polish was old. I’m so upset I can’t even write all the horrible things they did.

Should follow my instinct when I saw the place is so empty on a 85 °F sunny day in Portland. I went here while my son doing his taekwondo in the same strip mall, otherwise I would never gone to this place.
The lady put a blop of nail polish, top coat and everything else. I almost said tht she looks quite stiff compared to other mani/​pedicurist that doing nails all day long. The thing that bugs me the most is at the end she charges me $ 5 extra for choosing 2 bottles of nail polish, which I always do at other places. I usually mix two diff shades to create the shade I like. And she didn’t say anything when she applied it. All sudden at the end she told me that they charge $ 5 extra. Funny thing is they apply one coat from each bottle anyway, while if you choose 1 bottle they do two coats. So there’s no extra really. And their biz practice just cost them losing one customer. Definitely not coming back!

The worst pedicure ever! Avoid, avoid and avoid again. I came out of there with a feeling that I was robbed. I’m not even gonna get into details how terrible it was. Save your money and go somewhere else.

Don’t they inspect these places?! So dirty! I got a bad nail job while the manicurist held a phone between her chin and shoulder talking on the phone all the time.
Me no go no more.

A friend has gotten me into mani pedis and well out of all the places we have gone to… this was merely meh… they have almost no ventilation and when someone was getting acrylics done… I actually had to go outside it was that… potent. They were not too helpful nor engaging but far from rude so I can not complain there. They seemed to get a bit flustered and rushed when the place got a few more people in there.

I am spoiled and have gone to far too many nail places to not be a touch snotty about getting a decent pedicure. I went here with a group for a bachelorette party and was not impressed. They took care of me and were pretty nice but for less money I have gone to much nicer places in the pearl and had a mimosa. Their massage chairs suck also.
