Aloha Nails

My favorite nail salon in Bothell! The owner is super friendly and funny when you walk in the door, all of the technicians are sweet and take a lot of pride in their work, and the prices are totally reasonable. I always feel comfortable and welcome here (unlike Fabulous Nails up the street). Thank you Aloha Nails!

Not only does Aloha Nails have reasonable prices, but they legitimately care about their customers. My daughter, who was about to have a soccer practice at a nearby sports field, left a book at Aloha Nails after getting a mani-​pedi. A young employee (I think the daughter of the owner?) personaly drove my daughter’s book to the field and hand delivered it. Seriously, people. If you have the resources to get your nails done, GO HERE. They are GOOD PEOPLE.

I showed up at lunch unsure if they could fit me in for a pedicure. They got me in and out in 55 minutes which was perfect for my lunch hour. No pressure to upgrade the pedicure, great price at $ 15 and the leg massage felt great! Pretty typical amenities, massage chairs, movie/​TV, and a sugar scrub/​parrafin dip and other upgrades were only $ 5. The girls were friendly and helpful. I’ll definitely return!

Very nice and clean family ran business. Everyone is friendly! Definitely will come back!

The best thing about this place is the price. $ 15 for a pedi and $ 15 for a fill. This is the best I have ever seen at one of these places. Although I am new to the area and this pricing might be the norm. The pedi was nice although nothing to write home about and the fill was okay as well. They were busy on a Monday early afternoon so I can see that probably on evenings and weekends you might need an appointment. I am looking for a new local for these services and I think I will keep looking at this point but will probably go again if I need a nice pedi for a good price.

It’s been 5 days and 4 of the nails are chipping at the tips… Really sad considering shellac is always usually tough and durable for 2 weeks. too bad it’s not lasting, I don’t know what went wrong :(
Previous review:
I have landed on Aloha Nails as my new favorite local salon. It’s cheaper and they do a better job in my opinion than the last few I’ve tried out in the canyon park area.
Clean. Laid back. Sweet low prices. Well rounded color choice. Quality manicure. I didn’t want my nails trimmed or my cuticles cut — just quickly buffed and shellac polished– and they accommodated that.
The owner and the nail tech I had were both really funny and inviting.
Do I have any complaints or concerns? No!
5 stars. They nailed it ;) ;)

This place is by no means fancy but it’s a damn good pedicure for only $ 15!!! Yes, only $ 15!!! They do a super long calf/​foot rub too. This will be my go to place now for pedis!

This place wasn’t bad. I was a walk in just looking to get my eyebrows waxed on a random Saturday afternoon and I was able to get in within ¹⁵⁄₂₀ minutes. It was slightly awkward because there was no one at the front desk (everyone was busy working) so I just sat there quietly for about 10 minutes. My brows looked way better and it wasn’t a bad experience. I will go back — good prices too.

It’s good to make an appointment, since I made mind. There was no wait. They do a really good job. But they rushed through because there were lots of walk ins, wish they spent more time on grandmother because I was treating her to a birthday present mani pedi. But we were happy with our nails women were nice. They are great for French tip nails. Great design they can do. But not much for lacquer, which I’m a fan of. Good, average prices, their 5 dollar extras seem to be worth it. $ 12 fill. $ 25 shellac.

I’ve been getting acrylic nails for about a year now and never broken a nail once. Since going to aloha nails last week I have had 3 chipped or broken nails. 2 stars because they fixed it for free after I broke the first one but I’m not going to keep going in their to have my broken nails fixed.

I come here every 2 weeks for a fill and once a month for a pedicure. I generally don’t make an appt but they are always very accommodating. They do an amazing job and my nails always last. I never have any lifting or breakage. If you like artistic designs they do a beautiful job. I always get a ton of compliments on my nails. Their prices are beyond reasonable. I’ve been to many places that charge much more and have had my nails either pop off, lift or the polish looks less than perfect.
I would definitely recommend this place based on their cleanliness, professionalism, friendliness, price and attention to detail.
I love being able to support a business in my hood.

One the best legal gifts that has Tasha got me, Come on Rj you need to step up your game. So on Father’s day got peddy and manny, its was a blast. That was almost 6 years ago I have been hooked .The ladies here are super friendly and reall know their stuff. Most of the time I don’t understand what they are saying I hope its what handsome we don’t charge him today, I hope they are not saying oh no here Mr Fugly with his smelly feet. Man and women come treat yourself to a manny or peddy today.

I’ve gone to Aloha Nails a few times and have decided to not go again. She has some new girls who don’t speak English or understand it. This new girl added products to the pedicure water without saying anything and then charged extra for it. The more times you go to this spa the lower the service is.

The gals here are very hard working — have had the business for 15 years now — this is long-​term Bothell business that wants to do well by you. They stay open all hours and do a wide range of services. I can always get in with no appointment and they have invested in really nice new spa chairs. I have waxing, eyebrow tinting, and mani and pedis done — for years. Mai is the owner and she oversees the job being done if she has new employees working. The employees are not fluent at English but they appreciate if you try conversation not ignore them and talk on your cell phone the whole time.

I used to go to this salon when I was in high school, and for a cheap set of acrylics, they got the job done. The nails never lasted longer than 4 or 5 days before turning yellow and cracking off, but you get what you pay for– and at the time they only charged $ 25 for a full set. The women were all rude, and some even completely incompetent. I have since been going to Galleria Nail and Spa, and have witnessed quality product and service at work and wont EVER return to Aloha Nails.

Good service all the time I aways walk in no appointment :)

I have been here about 8 times and mostly have had positive experiences. The pedicures are good ($ 15) but no need to go for the spa extra ($ 5). I tried that and it consisted of an exfoliating cream for 2 minutes and a hot towel to wipe it off. Not worth it. I think the consistency of quality depends on who services you. I like Cindy who is only there Sundays but hasn’t been in awhile. The brow service/​tint is done by the owner and I like how she does it. She always suggests a lip wax but not sure I’ll keep doing it here. I have tried lash tinting which burned and didn’t really show off lashes well enough for the service. Also have had an underarm wax. It was pretty brutal here and definitely would not recommend.
UPDATE: 7−3−10. I came in because a toe nail broke and I had to get my feet done ASAP. The person assigned was a bit less than adequate. It was especially hard to communicate with her, more so than anyone else and I think she did a sloppy job. So I’m now up in the air about this place am open to other suggestions.

I’m not sure this place even deserves a single star…
I went there for 4+ years, in the final year that I went there each time it got worse. They treated their new clients as if they were gold and my mom and I who had been going there forever like crap!
It went from heated towels and long foot massages and not a single dry cuticle to: 1 minute or less massages, no heated towels, No massages on my hands for manicures, cuticles were a mess and they had us done in 30 mins. or less. Now I get if I had said I was in a hurry to get that kind of service but when I just come in — With an appointment mind you, I expect service. There were women coming in as walk ins who would sit next to us and get better service. I wondered if they thought we wouldn’t notice that this random person was getting a much better service for the same price as my crappy service.
After a year of them taking our service for granted we left. We went to Tina’s Nails (By Tully’s and Albertson’s — their new location) and have been happy with them for some time.
NEVER will I ever go back to Aloha.

I walked in here on Superbowl Sunday with no appointment and received incredible service. I originally wanted just a pedicure, but they talked me into a manicure, too, which they did at the same time as my pedicure. They also didn’t question my taste in manicure which I often get at other places (I’m a massage therapist so I need my nails SUPER short, with no polish), which I really appreciated. They also talked me into some cute flowers on my toes, which are hand drawn, not stickers/​decals.
The best part? The pedicure, flower upgrade, & manicure cost me the same amount as just a pedicure at the place I used to go to in Bellevue. And, of course, the customer service was excellent! And they’re located in the stripmall right next to QFC in downtown Bothell so it’s a real convenient location. I will definitely be back!

The sweetest lady’s! and always a beautiful job!
How my nails look is very important to me… Just having my hands and feet look nice brightens up everything for me… not to mention the spa pedicures and message are awesome!
