Tammy VIP Nails (20% Off New Customers – Appointment & Walk-in) Reviews, Prices, Services, Photos

The atmosphere here is very nice, everyone is welcoming and kind. But the set I got yesterday looks good from the front but from all other angles looks very weird. The acrylic was laid very thin and the nail tips they use are very curved so if you get any kind of length or shape besides square they come out super curved and talon like. I was charged 70$ for these because of the ‘length’ mind you I had gotten my nails done here 4 weeks ago twice as long and they were the same price. I posted another set I got that were also 70$ and you can see they’re way longer & French tip. I don’t think this set was worth 70$ at all.

Tammy did my nails. Although she did an ok job and seemed nice she had an attitude. I have learned you are your best advocate and I will always ask for what I need and what is best for me. She had my nails sitting in acetone for over 10 mins. I am very cautious of this as the acetone will deteriorate your natural nails. I let mine grow and don’t get tips done and have had other nail salons in Victoria let my hands soak in acetone where a HOLE will form in the middle of my nail. Therefore, after 10 mins, I removed my hand from the bowl and told her that I don’t soak them too long because they will harm my natural nail. She said yes sone if your nail will come off. What!!! No that shouldnt happen!!! I usually get cotton on top, which, in my opinionis best. She lied and said here in Victoria we don’t do cotton on top. I said I’ve gone to other nail salons in VICTORIA that will do that. 2nd strike, she said my nails are too weak to shape and will do that after dipping. Yet she wanted me to leave my nails in acetone longer. 3rd strike was that she does not use a base powder for dipping. That is key in preventing your NATURAL nails from breaking. I usually get 2 base coats (powder) before dipping. She looked at me like I was crazy asking for that and she said she doesn’t do that just the base coat polish. I said ok. She filed my nails and then used the same base coat #2 for my top coat. At this point I just wanted to leave. I should have asked why but was wanting to leave and never go back. Then when checking out I asked if the amount was with the 20% off. She said she didn’t charge for nail removal and shape. I get her not charging for shape but you will seeiously charge to remove my previous powder set!? Then after leaving, one of my nails has some white marks that won’t come off. When you know better you do better…. and unfortunately, this nail salon isn’t it and I will not return.

i honestly recommend this place if you are looking for quality and comfort. i didnt manage to get the name of the lady who did my nails, but she was AMAZING. she made me very comfortable on my first visit and she gave me EXACTLY what i wanted. my nails are smooth and straight. she was very intricate and made sure they looked PERFECT before i left. very great place, i will definitely be coming here again!

I really enjoyed this place! Great location and the technician really listened to my requests. They also let me use the 20% discount on first time clients which was super helpful for this student life I am living. Thank you!

LOVE LOVE LOVE my nail tech Tim, I showed him what I wanted and made me proud of his work. I will 100% tell everyone I know to come see Tim.
