T & T Nails Design

It’s been a while since I’ve been here but I was always impressed by the quality customer service and the price. They would reserve chairs for me and my girlfriends when we wanted to go here for bonding time. They would provide drinks and free waxing.

I went to TnT nails because of the raving reviews. I have no doubt that Tony is an absolutely wonderful person and business owner. I rewrote and thought about this review many times before deciding to actually post it.
I went here on a Sunday for a pedicure, the reviews are for manicures and my experience would have definitely been different if it were for that service. I called Tony up and asked if I could make an appointment for 11am, no problem. There was horrible traffic (totally understand) and Tony and his wife were running a little late. Shop is small but very clean. The pedicure station is made up of two patio chairs (the wicker type with a fluffy cushion… just saw it at Ross the other day) and a glass pedicure sink with a faucet. I was surprised and disappointed that there wasn’t a massage chair or that I couldn’t soak my feet in some warm water and bubbles.
The pedicure started almost immediately. Tony’s wife (sorry I didn’t get her name!) was very gentle and thorough, she trimmed my nails, worked on my cuticles and massaged (she’s good!) my calves and feet. My feet were washed in warm water and scrubbed with a brush, Tony’s wife added what looked like Softsoap hand soap to the warm water and I dipped my feet in that. I had to balance my feet on her knees while she did my pedicure and throughout the entire 35 – 45 minutes I wasn’t putting all of my weight on her… meaning I was holding up the majority of my weight. My skin was sticking to the plastic covered cushion on the wicker chair and although the calf and foot massage offered some relief to my tight leg muscles and tired feet all I could think about was keeping my weight from digging into Tony’s wife’s legs. The pedicure was quick, professionally done and I loved the look of it.
I am in a predicament, it was a quality pedicure without the frills. The price is fair but it just wasn’t what I wanted. I wanted to sit in an air conditioned shop in a massage chair while my feet relaxed in warm, jet-​water-​shooting, bubbly water (maybe even with some aromatherapy beads/​oils/​something). I got a quality pedicure but for $ 8 – 10 more I could get the frills elsewhere (I paid $ 28 for the pedicure). This place would be great if you want to get in and out and want a quality pedicure. For me, I get pedicures as a treat and usually go when I’m in serious need of relaxation. I didn’t do my homework about what was available here, I also could have left without the pedicure… but after all the should-​have-​dones I ended up getting my pedicure here, it is nice but not sure if I’ll be back.

I absolutely LOVE Tony! I discovered him through Unilocal and he is exactly what everyone puts him out to be. I got my underarms/(a little girl stache)/and eyebrows waxed, as well as a little short manicure session. He was SO lovely! The waxing was fast, painless, and turned out perfect! My eyebrows look so good right now, and my nails looks real good for someone who bites their nails.
He told me about his life story and it was really sad (or at least I thought so). He is very funny and a happy guy. This is a really small store, so please make an appointment and DON’T BE LATE! His schedule is really packed because he also drives cabs. Tony gave me a really nice massage and water at the end. He is just a really loving guy, and you can’t help but love him!

I came HI about 6 years, and only had my eye brow done like 4 times in the past:
–2 times in the same nail salon in Chinatown, I walked out w/​very red skin above my eyes, and they did not seem to care for the least.
–Had it done at Salon 808 for 1 time. The guy there spent more time than the ladies in that nail salon, and put a cooling gel on the eye brow area. I had a hair cut after it, so by the time I left, my skin was not that red.
–last time was in a some nail salon, and it was the same as the one in Chinatown. I left w/​very red skin.
My past experiences: expensive or cheap, got the same look. Only diff is expensive one gave you cooling gel, and small nail salon did not.
This time, I have to get my eye brow waxed, and it’s either today or a week later (no time during week days). I called Nordstrom 1^st, and left a msg, but until now — no one called me back. I called the # list here at around 10 am, and had my appoint set up for 1:30.
It was after I was in the store, I found out that the store is closed on Sunday like many other stores. Tony actually drove to the store to do my eye brow waxing.
Now, about the waxing. He used the same tools like the other people, and no cooling gel. BUT it was less painful, and my skin was not very red! It was even more normal looking than the time I got cooling gels!
He also really took time to shape my eye brow. After 6 years, I finally got a softer look eye brow.
He even took me home (he drives a taxi) after the waxing. Some me much time since it’s a Sunday and the bus come less often than usual.
The store is small: 2 pedicure seats, 1 seat for who want to do nail, and one for who will do the nail. The place is very clean: I looked the floor (while Tony heating up the wax), and two pedicure seats.
Tony is a nice guy. He did a GREAT job on waxing and shaping my eye brow. And when he took me home, he is also talkative as others have mentioned.
The store opens Monday — Sat, and Tony’s brother will be there. If you want Tony (he does everything: manicure, pedicure, nails, all kinds waxing), you can call him anytime and schedule an appointment.
I paid $ 15: $ 12 for the waxing, and $ 3 tip. It’s totally worth it!

I almost don’t want to share my secret by I want to get him more out there.
In the type of gal who always get there nailz did, and everywhere I’ve been nothing really amazes me until NOW! My friends been coming here for a while now, there the ones who told me about this place so I figured I’d check it out… and not to mention Tony’s one of my BFF’s brother-​in-​law!
Tony is not only a nice guy but he genuinely loves his job, his very thorough and takes his time on each individual nail. His designs are always on top and you can always tell him to mix you a color for the boogie-​nights set. His shop is really tiny since it is only him and his wife who does the pedicures but its very clean and cozy. They always offering me food and water to while I get my nails done. And I can call him a that day and he can squeeze me in or come in just to get my nails done. Plus his super cheap considering how shiny and long my nails last! One time I came I loved my color that me and him both mixed together that he saved it on a bottle and put my name on it, so if ever I wanted to have that same color again!
They also do every type of waxing, which I haven’t had done by him but heard good reviews on it. His English is really good and his very talkative so you can always carry a conversation with him. So now, I referred all my girlfriends to him!
My sets last for about 4 weeks or even more without breaking! His tools and hands are the best thing that ever touched my nails. I like that his shop is so close to my apartment and parking is also free and right in front of the shop!

Had my eyebrows waxed and reshaped by Tony. On the recommendation of a co-​worker I gave it a try and was very impressed. This was no ordinary wax and pluck. Tony took the time (like an artist) to sculpt and shape my eyebrows. He shaped my brows to the shape of my face. His work is nearly painless and perfect.
Don’t expect a huge salon. It a two-​seater operation. It was worth my drive into town

I’ve gotten my nails done at a couple places and I need not go to any other nail artist again. Tony is thorough! My set lasts for 4 weeks. His nail designs vary and you can bring in your own ideas too!
I almost don’t even want to let you in on my secret but I do want to help drive business their way.
Tony does nails and his wife does pedicures. The setup is small so call to make an appointment.
