Best Nail Salons In Traverse City

“My husband and I stopped in on a vacation for a quick basic pedicure. It was well priced, nice folks, and a good price. Highly highly recommend this seemingly family owned location. Best walk-in salon I’ve seen anywhere.

Cleanliness: Very clean

Stylist: Very nice, professional, Minimal conversation but more than I usually get other locations. Very refreshing location.“

“I walked in last minute after my bridal updo went horribly wrong at another salon. She got me in immediately and redid my hair in time for me to get to my ceremony. She was incredibly empathetic and did an AMAZING job. I’m so so grateful for her. My hair was beautiful and immediately brought a calm to the whole fiasco. I couldnt say enough good things.“

“Aliyah did AMAZINGGGG, will forever tell everyone to go to her. Amazing conversation!“

“I recently had the pleasure of visiting Pure Essence Salon and working with Emilie for hair extensions, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and stylish. Emilie took the time to consult with me about my hair goals and helped me choose the perfect extensions that matched my hair color and texture seamlessly.

Her expertise really shined through as she applied the extensions with incredible precision. I appreciated her attention to detail and the way she made sure I was comfortable throughout the process. The result is absolutely stunning—my hair looks and feels amazing! I’ve received so many compliments since my appointment.

If you’re considering hair extensions, I highly recommend Emilie at Pure Essence Salon. She is talented, professional, and truly passionate about her craft. I can’t wait for my next appointment!“

“Hana is amazing at what she does! I have been searching for someone to give me the cut that she rocked out on the very first visit with her! I am obsessed with my hair! It was a tough one and she made it look so easy. It's amazing how a great haircut can make you feel amazing, theres also nothing like a stylist that gives you exactly what you ask for! She did exactly that and some!“

“Where my wife has her hair cut. The owner does her hair and she gets it perfect everytime and she was at another salon prior to starting her own salon so it's been years she's been providing perfect cuts. Would recommend Salon Coiffure to anyone looking for a consistent hair stylist service.“

“Montana at Polished Nail Boutique is now my absolute go-to for pedicures in TC. The space is inviting and cozy, with a great mix of gel options. During my visit, I brought in a nail color they didn’t have exactly, but Montana worked with me and helped me find something so close I ended up liking it even more!

I love that Montana took her time and focused on the details, so my nails always look perfect without feeling rushed. At larger nail salons, I'm almost always in some sort of pain (cut of the cuticle, rubbed my skin raw, poked me with their tools). But Montana's services was absolutely painless and refreshing! I've never felt better after a pedicure, truly.

Booking online is simple, which makes planning ahead a breeze. Between her skill, professionalism, and friendly personality, I can’t imagine going anywhere else.“

“Super friendly, always fits me in on short notice, and great pricing. Amazing lady would recommend to anyone.“

“A truly enjoyable experience! I love my hair and highlights and the conversation was delightful!“

“My partner and I each had a pedicure today and oh my goodness...perfection. I will recommend to everyone and will definitely be back. ❤️“

“Love my nails! Sue is great and professional! She knows what she is doing! Have been coming for many years !“

“Wonderful staff! I went in there crying after getting a horrible haircut somewhere else. My intention was to purchase a wig, but the ladies there were so caring, they helped me so much. They assessed the horrible job the other place did with my hair and they fixed it! (it was completley butchered, uneven and unblended.) They blended it, evened it out and actually took the time to try and make it look good. They did all this for me and they didn't charge me a penny. I'll never forget how caring, compassionate and helpful they were to me. I'll definitely go back for a regular trim because they know what they're doing and knowing that is very reassuring.“

“I see Tom at Details salon. He has done my hair for years and he is the best as far as I am concerned a master colorist I wouldn't trust anyone else with my color or cut!!!“

“Did a dip manicure here and it was excellent! Still going strong after 3+ weeks. Highly recommend.“

“Bill did an amazing job on my friend, Angela, nails. 20/5 stars. Very friendly workers and funny too. My nail tech (didn’t catch his name) did an amazing job and I absolutely love them. Def will be back“

“So impressed with my nails! I came in, showed a picture of what I wanted and they actually did it! Thank you Anna! I love them!“

“I visited this salon after hearing great things, and it didn’t disappoint. Clean, calm atmosphere and my nails look amazing!“

“Maria fit me in last min. I came in with bright orange hair and wanted to go back to dark dark brown and she did it no color correcting. I reccieved free samples to be sent home with. She was so sweet and im very thankful for squeezing me in. She was very clearly slammed!“

“Tracy always does a fantastic job on my nails, I literally recommend tc nails to everyone I met. This last time she did black nails with little flowers and leaves on them and they look AMAZING. The details are perfect, I don’t know how she does it.“

“The nail tech I seen was working on his 32nd birthday and had plans to go home and make a nice dinner. He still took the time to make sure my nails looked literally perfect. I can’t recommend this place enough. Not to mention I was a walk in and walked out less than an hour later.“

“Have always had good service better than in town. Take my 10 year old with me to get pedicures and they even put flowers on her toes without asking :)“

“Got my nails done yesterday and they are the best I've ever had! I asked for acrylics and instead of doing the whole acrylic gel thing, they simply put tips on with dip over it. I love this because it makes the nails look so much more natural! Amy was my nail tech and she did a beautiful job! She shaped the nails so perfectly and matched my reference picture so well! I also sat next to Rosy who was also doing beautiful sets. Both of them had beautiful, detailed nails that they did on themselves and you could tell that they were very talented! Either of them would definitely be able to do complex requests or designs.
The only thing is that they were very pricey, but I did ask for some extra things so I understand.
This is the first time I've ever left the salon fully satisfied, so thank you to the Nail Bar!“
