About Escape Nails
Escape Nails is a nail salon with a mixed reputation. While some customers have had negative experiences, with dirty workspaces and subpar services, others have had positive experiences. One reviewer was unhappy with their gel polish removal, citing a dirty workspace and poor service. However, another reviewer, who had their dip powder done by a technician named Peter, raved about their experience, citing excellent workmanship and customer service. A third reviewer had a positive experience with a walk-in visit, praising the salon's cleanliness and the technicians' attention to detail. Overall, it seems that Escape Nails is a hit-or-miss experience, with some technicians and services being more reliable than others.
I stopped in here just to get my gel polish taken off, and thank goodness I wasn’t getting any actual service done. The workspace they sat me at was dirty; the nail tech clearly did not swap out the towel that was there in place from either her previous use, or another client’s use.She also did a terrible job taking off my gel, leaving residue. I pointed out to her where there was still residue to be buffed off and asked her to go back over it, and she sort of huffed about it and did it half heartedly. I didn’t object further because I just wanted to leave at that point. A week later, I’m still trying to get residue off my nails. I wouldn’t go back here.
A friend recommended this place for pedicures. I was impressed so I came back for dip powder. Needless to say I have been to MANY nail salons in the Haymarket, Warrenton and Gainesville area and the work was sub par, my nails either cracked or lifted after a week. The technician who did my nails here his name is Peter. Due to vacation and being out of the country I had to wait 5 weeks to get them done again, they NEVER lifted and was still in good shape like the first day he did them. I HIGHLY recommend him. The workmanship and his customer service is above and beyond. I am now a loyal client.
I can’t say good enough things about this place! My mom and I went as a walk in and they were friendly, clean, and did a great job. They were gentle with my nails and made sure they were perfect!
