I will never go back after being mistreated by their employee today, I have 4 daughters that started me going there and never had an issue until I went back 2 days later and said that my eyebrows were wrong and had already packed my tweezers for vacation and wanted them to correct, but after she told me to look around for the same person who wasn't there she was done with me, so Unprofessional and will tell everyone I know about this day Read Less

This is by far my favorite nail salon in Des Moines. The ladies are amazing! Anna and Vicky are great. Super friendly and also helpful. When I came in to get my nails done I had my five month old son was very fussy and they still gave me the best of service. Helping with soothing him so I could enjoy myself and get my nails done. Anna who did my pedicure recommended the new dipping method for your nails and I am in love still. They feel so much lighter and the process overall was amazing. I will continue to have my nails done this way. I will not be going anywhere else to get my nails done besides here! I do recommend calling to schedule an appointment since they are very busy. I have zero complaints and have enjoyed my service here. Read Less

When she put the acrylic on my nails she used to much liquid and it dripped onto my finger and the table, they wouldn’t do my mom‘s nails, when she applied the nail polish she didn’t get the side and it’s all bumpy . Thia finished somebody’s nails, then continued to do her own instead of offering my mom a drink or something and then someone else walked in that she knew and instantly stopped her own nails, offered them a drink and continued to do her nails. 10/10 would not recommend Not recommending to anyone Read Less

This was my first time at Thia's and I love my nails. It was a quiet atmosphere and that's what I like. The salon was clean & everyone was super friendly! Vicky did my dip powder manicure with tips and she did a great job. She was gentle and took her time but it didn't feel like it was that long at all. I went here because the regular nail salon I go to was closed. My co-worker is a regular here and I love how her nails look so she suggested this place to me. She usually has Hellen do her nails but Vicky did a great job as well. This is also near the gym I go to, so I may come back for a pedicure in the future.I also want to mention there is not an ATM machine here & there is not a "tip" line on the receipt, so be prepared to bring cash for tips :) Read Less

Went with my sister after calling about openings. The woman on the phone said she had an opening for a manicure for one and a pedicure for one.

This is probably the best nail salon on the south side of Des  Moines. I came in today for an appointment at 1:00 and they got me right in, whereas I have been to another popular salon - Andy's Nails, and have waited over an hour when I specifically made an appointment. The service was friendly and the area was really clean and sanitized. I got the full set and it took about 35 minutes. I was really happy with my visit and will definitely go back! Really good quality :-) Read Less

I'm torn on the review. The service was good, my nails look great, and it was affordable ($30 for gel color + manicure) The location is convenient and pretty nice, and everyone there was pleasant, but it wasn't clear that anything was sanitized. After the technician did my cuticles, he tossed the clippers back in the drawer without sanitizing them, which makes me think he probably didn't sanitize them before either (ew!). I should have said something, but I didn't. I won't be going back because of this, which is too bad because everything else was good about the experience. Read Less

Thia herself was there to get me started she and her staff did everything they could to get me on my way in time to catch my flight home but still provided a great experience.  My gel manicure still looks great 1- week later and the price was one of the best I have seen.  I wish Thia would move to Idaho!

Great selection of nail colors with lots to choose from. They carry OPI and Voya. Also, they do terrific nail work. Located in a strip mall with plenty of parking. This is a great find within an area that doesn't have a lot of competition from other nail salons. Read Less

I've gone to Thia's twice now since we moved from Austin in April.  Both times I've been completely satisfied.  I've had my nails done quite a bit in my life and the consistency and quality of my mani/pedi were above average at Thia's.  I think the price is fair - I paid 55 for a deluxe pedi (with the oil and leg wraps) and a regular mani - which is consistent with other cities I've lived in.  They do prefer if you make an apt (but they accommodated me when I walked in), which is the only reason I gave them 4 stars instead of 5.  I've definitely found my nail place in town!

I haven't had a nail break between appointments since June.  At my previous nail salon I was always in need of a repair within 10 days.

WOW. EXPENSIVE MUCH?The service was okay...I came in at 11am, for a pedi and a set, and left at almost 2pm!!!!  The acrylic french tip set was okay, nithing amazing. Within the next day the acrylic started to pull tightly on ny nailbed.  You get a "leg massage" during your pedi which really felt like nothing despite me asking for firmer pressure several times.I left very disappointed with this place,  in regards to both price AND service.  I think your money just goes to their cost of making the place look nice.Oh yeah, my bill came out to OVER $100 with tip. Sure, you get to walk into an aesthetically nice looking salon, but you're really there for a service and to me, the service fell pretty flat.Nothing was really memorable or enjoyable here. If you do plan on coming to Thias, just make sure you block out a good couple of hours cuz they are pretty slow. Read Less
