I've been a few times (enough for the owner to know me by name), but after my last visit I will never be coming back. I realize my review is long, but I recommend reading the whole thing.... the best part is in the last paragraph :)My mom and I went on a weekday in the middle of the afternoon so we didn't think it would be too busy for a mani pedi. There were a couple other customers that seemed to be finishing up so the owner sat us down in our chairs to wait for our pedicures, no big deal. After a short wait, an employee began my pedicure, and my mom still waited, still no big deal. But then a second employee freed up and started my moms pedicure. Then another customer walked in the door, and right then the employee stopped my moms pedicure to help the other customer, who, 'no' did not have an appointment. My pedicure continued, as my mom waited, again. Then the owner came up to me, grabbed, yes grabbed, my arm and pulled it towards her to start my manicure. I had two employees, one being the owner, working on my nails, while my mom continued to wait for service. After having water split all over my lap from sloppy service and my arms being yanked around so the owner, not the customer, could feel comfortable, my nails were "painted". The second coat on my fingernails was so bad you could see the paint lines where polish was missed on every single nail, and same with my toes. On one of my toes, there was too much paint on the brush which caused the paint to clump. I noticed it and politely asked for that nail to be fixed. The owners way of "fixing" it was to put more polish over the top of it, making it even worse. She did not want to take the time to repaint. If the OWNER of all people finds her work to be "quality" I highly question her business. It gets better... after my two employees finish my manicure and pedicure, they both switch to my mom.. finally. The owner squeezes herself between my chair and my moms chair, twisting and turn with her butt bend over in our faces. After her butt knocks over our waters and nail polish on our side tables she cluelessly turns back around not even acknowledging what she just did. The owner continues and tells my mom, "you need to come earlier if you and your daughter want to get your nails done together at the same time".... excuse me?... you just used TWO employees to work on ONE person, and then switched... what?..EVEN BETTER! As the owner was cutting my moms cuticles, she accidentally clipped the skin, again, no big deal, it happens all the time. BUT the owner did not clean the cut or stop the bleeding!! As my moms finger was bleeding, and owner used the community bottom coat polish, colored nail polish, AND the top coat polish on my moms BLOODY finger!!! Final Recommendation: DO NOT come here.. unless you want blood infested nail polish on your fingers Read Less

Terrible. Where do I start? Owner charged another customer $1 for a nail kit. She charged me $3 for just the cheap exfoliating block. She personally did my manicure and did almost everything wrong she could have. Filed my nails very crooked. Polish all over on some nails/fingers and on others the entire nail wasn't even covered. Globs of polish. When I asked her to clean it up a bit, her responses was, "What did you do???"  That was her chance to make it right. She cleaned up just one nail. I could have done a better job with my eyes closed. The gentleman was nice and he took his time with the French on my toes. Unfortunately, the lines were very crooked. I appreciated his effort. Then I made the terrible mistake of letting her wax my eyebrows. I'm not sure if the wax was cheap or not hot enough but I could tell when she pulled it off that absolutely no hair came off. I was right - my eyebrows looked unchanged but I was thankful she didn't have access to good wax to do some real damage. I've had some bad experiences over the years but this takes the cake and from the owner of all people! I'm questioning whether she actually has her license. She should be ashamed for trying to rip people off like that. The salon wasn't even busy nor was it close to closing time. She just didn't give a darn and expected more money for terrible service. Take your business elsewhere! Read Less

Worst waxing I've ever had. I went back to have someone redo it and they were going to charge me!! Terrible place. "Van" seems like a scam artist. Told me she would give me a deal... But not to tell the man up front.... When I went back I was told they all work for themselves. Very low quality for West Linn. Read Less

This place gave me the worst manicure of my life and on my wedding day! Literally a three year old could have done a better job. I was I tears when I left, but ended up just having to laugh. Unfortunately it was also a gel manicure so I couldn't easily remove it. Vida is super close to my house but will never get my money again. Read Less

If I could give this place negative stars I would.  Went here for a Mother's Day outing and was in and out in 30 mins.  Worse massage ever, didn't scrub my heals and the worst flower design ever.  What a waste of time and money!!! Read Less

Barely got a foot massage, and a very sloppy polish job, and then they kicked me out of the chair in less than 30 minutes. Took my daughter too and I think she could have done a better job polishing her own nails. Read Less

My mom, sisters and I went to this salon all at the same time for a mani-pedi treatment and we had an appointment. I had to wait a little while for mine, but the man who did my acrylic fill and pedicure did a great job. He gave a great massage and I felt really relaxed! The place was clean and did not smell too fumey. All the lines they painted were really straight and clean. My sisters manicure was just amazing!! I didn't get exactly what I wanted in my mani, but I think the manicurists interpretation of the picture I showed him is close enough. My other sister said she felt rushed by her tech and there was a brush hair in her acrylic set, and the tech hurriedly filed it down and redid the nail, but it looked darker than the rest. I think the place is overall good, but a bit of a mixed bag. I would go again for another foot rub, though! Oh my god! Also, I don't know if it is normal, but the massage chairs have this weird setting that literally feels like it is trying to punch your butthole- you've been warned!! Read Less

Decided to try Vida nails for a mani-pedi. The nail technician was filing my toenails so violently she sliced into my big toe on the edge. This was at the very beginning of the pedicure. Therefore, the cut stung the entire treatment. Woke up this morning - my toe still hurts and my heels itch. I am wondering if the pedi bowl had possibly not been cleaned or sanitized. Will not be returning. Read Less

Tried Vida for the first time on a Sunday.  The nail tech filed my toenail so violently that she sliced the side of my toe with the edge of the file.  I was in pain the entire treatment.  She barely apologized and continued on.  I felt the need to stare at everything she did to make sure I was not injured again.I will not be returning.

I've been coming to Vida Nails for over 6 months now and will continue to come back.  First of all I love that they are open on Sundays as that seems to be the day I always want a pedicure or manicure and a lot of other places aren't open.  Also - they are good about keeping appointment times when my friends and I want to go in together so we don't have to wait.  The place is always clean and the staff is friendly and do a great job with massage on the pedicures.

I have been to Vida Nails three times and two out of the three were blissful.  Two times Vinh ( Vin) was my technician and it was on a Sunday afternoon. It's quiet and relaxing and she does a great job. Very sweet person.  One other time I went  on a Tuesday and she was off and I tried  someone else.  The whole experience was different:  noisy, lots of talk among technicians, nails chipped next day, etc.   But I will be sure and ask for Vinh and aim for a Sunday afternoon.  A total treat!   Also, I met Rose and I would recommend her too.

I went because I had a coupon for a mani-pedi. I also had an ingrown toenail, (which I've never had in my life). The gal asked me why " you not go to American Doctor for this?!" Are you kidding me? She did not take care of it, and my pedicure which should have been a relaxing experience WAS NOT. She would not stop asking me questions, and her English was very broken, so I could not understand ANYTHING she was saying. VERY AWKWARD. Plus her and the other girl kept laughing and talking in their native language, which is SO rude, as it makes customers think they are talking about them. Which is most cases, they are! The manicure was a nightmare. The water was red-hot, and she bloodied 2-3 fingers, and picked at my cuticles, and I was still left with hangnails, and very sore, tender, cuticles. She tried to talk me into gel, and the other one tried to talk me into a brow wax, as they laughed some more. When I gave her the coupon for $29.99, she rang it up as $30.00, and did not thank me for a more than generous tip. DO NOT GO HERE. I came from Wilsonville, what a waste of gas. The owner needs to conduct some TRAINING, ASAP> finally, two of nails have already chipped off. Read Less

This was the second time I have been to vida nails with my girlfriend and the first time was horrible so we thought we would give it another shot. The second time was even worse. We had to wait again 45 minutes when they told us it would be a 10 minute wait, then when they finally did get to us the technician had to get up in the middle of it multiple times to go finish someone else's nails or ring someone up at the register. Not to mention when I got home my toe nail polish just rubbed off my nails like it was mud. HORRIBLE place.Read Less
