I was excited to find a nail salon near my son's school and went last month for a pedicure which was pretty good. So I went back yesterday for another. A man did it this time, I got the $55 spa pedicure and planned to add a manicure after. Realizing I was going to be late I cancelled the manicure and asked to pay. A woman who works there started shouting angrily at me when I cancelled the manicure! She was so rude. I have no idea what she was saying but she was shouting and it was directed at me! I will not be going back! Read Less

There have been some improvements at this nail shop since I was here last, over 3 years ago.  The shop is still sandwiched between Giant and Hair Cuttery, but seems well staffed and cleaner and new pedi chairs. I was lucky enough to get there mid afternoon on a weekday, so no waiting (and staff were sitting around waiting for customers to walk in).  They have several gel colors and matching gel/not gel packs for mani/pedi customers ( this is what I chose).  The only problem was I was trying to choose from the color on the bottle cap; they don't have (or didn't show me) the "color wheel" of gel on nails for true color selection. The pedi chair is fantastic (ask for a newer one).  Really strong massage setting is available. The tech was good - asked if water temp was okay (it was) and tried to upsell spa (no), extra leg/foot massage ($10/10 min) (no). She took a nice long while on feet and was removing the gel on my hands while doing it (foil wrap on nails with acetone), so it slid right off. Good filing/shaping and extra gel layer. No shoulder massage but competent job on hands and feet. I also got lip wax - not too hot, clean room, not too red after. Price for total was $60 and it looked like you can add tip to total (I used cash, though). Read Less

Only Nails is my go to salon in Warrenton. I've had horrible experiences at other shops nearby but never anything too serious to complain about here. Vicky is definitely the best nail tech but she's always busy so I take whoever is available. In my experiences, the guys in the shop (besides Vicky) do a better job than the females. If this is your first time, I recommend coming on a Sunday afternoon and treating yourself to a spa pedicure. You won't regret it! Read Less

For years I used to come here monthly for a mani/pedi but about a year ago I had a few horrible experiences. I always felt pressure to buy buy buy but this one time it was horrible. That plus a painful experience and a horrible toe nail infection days after my pedi, I started going less. Thinking everyone had bad days, I gave them another try. The woman cut my foot when her instrument slipped. After that I didn't return. Until today when my husband wanted to go. Horrible. The man cut my toe, didn't push my cuticles, was nasty when I didn't want a more expensive spa pedi. I cancelled my mani and let him finish my pedi. In fact he's finishing now and you can tell he's hurrying to do someone getting something more expensive done. I will never come back here. Last year I found Zen,it's further away by like 3 miles and it's cheaper, cleaner and calmer. I work in OSHA and was happy to see they way they clean the tub and instruments. The fact that this place doesn't have adequate sterilization visible should have been a clue not to come here. This was my fault for coming back and giving them a second, third and fourth chance to make it right. Read Less

Loved this place! Usually get my nails done and being a groomer they break easily in a week. I have sensitive hands! Paulette was really gentle and 3 week later they are STILL on my fingers. I love how nice and patient they were with me and my friend. Great place definitely coming back. Read Less

This was my first time at Only Nails (my go-to for nails is Nails Design II by Vocellis!) and I went for a wax. I originally went to Hair Cuttery but the wait was at least 15 minutes and I had groceries in the car so I went next door to Only Nails and they took me right away. The guy who greeted me was not very welcoming and just told me where to go for the wax. The lady who die yet wax was nice enough and she did a good job. They're thinner than I prefer, but she didn't ask how I wanted them and I didn't say (hoping she'd just "clean up" the shape I already had). The place wasn't very clean looking so definitely a star lost on that & when I was leaving, the man who greeted me was straight up picking his nose. Like knuckle deep y'all. All I could think was I hope he washes his hands before doing someone's nails! I stopped in out of convenience, but I won't be back. Read Less

I walked into this salon for lip wax and eyebrow wax. The staff greeted me curtly and told me where to go for waxing. The woman in the waxing room greeted me with a "What do you want?" and when I responded, she looked at my face and said "Oh my God." I ignored it, not certain at all what she was exclaiming about. She began to wax my face and the woman was so rough,ripping the waxing strips off my face over and over. She did not speak to me about how I wanted my brows and just proceeded to pluck away after doing a less than stellar job waxing. She missed spots and I asked her to go over them again. She left cotton ball stuck all over my face and scraped my face with the tweezers at one point. In the end, my eyebrows look fine but I will not be going back. Read Less

I would not recommend this salon to anyone. The service was poor and sanitation questionable. While having a pedicure I was not even asked if they could use a razor, I found out by feeing it on my feet!  Also, during my manicure the tech was talking on her phone.  In addition, after about a week after my gel mani started peeling I went in and complained. They told me that they could not fix it and would not give me any sort of refund. Never going back!I Read Less

I've been going for a couple of years for pedicure and mani. I decided to have acrylic nails again. They don't check for loose areas when doing a fill-in so it's been frustrating for my daughter and I to have nails chip or come completely off before two weeks sometimes within a few days. Trying different place today. Read Less

I went into Only Nails with low expectations because I have never had a 5-star experience at any nail salon that was not a full-service spa/salon. I would say that Only Nails met my expectations, but did not exceed them. I got your average manicure and it was done fine, nothing great. The nail tech clipped my cuticle too close and it bled a little, but she apologized and stopped the bleeding right away.The customer service was sub-par (as with most other nail salons I have been to...): my nail tech was constantly loudly talking to the other techs in another language and a few times completely turned away (stopped working on my nails) to glance at a video one of the other techs was watching on her phone. Also, after my nails dried was standing at the payment counter for a few minutes before anyone noticed I was there - my nail tech had already begun doing a pedicure on a coworker. All in all, if you are looking for your average manicure in an environment similar to your other average nail salon, that is what you'll get at Only Nails. Read Less

I can't compare to other nail salons in the area, but my experience was per usual, customer service was as I usually suspect for this kind of nail salon, but the quality of the manicure was pretty bad.  I got a  gel manicure and first she was very rough on my nails trying to get off the previous gel and almost filed them to nothing so they were paper thin.  And she did a very bad job of shaping my nails and then didn't even use the fine grit file to smooth them out, needless to say I noticed how jagged some of my nails were when I left and of course I had to try to smooth them out with a fine grit file which then messed up the manicure, that is supposed to last for weeks. I do not suggest going to this salon unless the other salons in Warrenton are just awful! Read Less

This nail salon is one of the best salons I have found....anywhere. I travel extensively around the country and I am always leery of trying someplace new.  my nails are very important to me and my business requires that I look good at all times.  this was just a spur of the moment stop....I had been told about other salons in the area, but for some reason, I decided to stop here.  I went in and they were able to take me right away.  My nail tech did both my pedicure and my manicure.  He was meticulous in his care of my feet and when it came to my hands, he took the time to undo a very poor job done at another salon and treated my nails to one of the best acrylic/gel manicures I have ever had. His name is Kenny and he doesn't work on Mondays, but I will be sure to stop and see him again when I am in the area. I can't say enough good about the salon.  the other techs were professional, the air was fresh, the place spotless and there wasn't allot of chatter. Just good work being done and happy customers coming and going.  price was very good and the selection of nail polish was more than enough.  I only wish Kenny lived closer to me.  I would see him every few weeks!

It's hard to see this salon from the road. It's hidden in the shopping center next to Giant. But, that being said, it's the best place to go in Warrenton. Sure...the place across the street looks all clean and shiny, but you usually wait 30+ minutes to get any service and they're definitely not friendly there. Here it's a total different ball game. Super friendly and very attentive.  Granted there's no fancy indoor fountain and diamonds hanging from the ceiling, but I'd rather have a really good pedicure/manicure that is worth the money than to be paying for ridiculous gaudy decorations.
