Andy's NailBar in West Des Moines, IA

Went in to get my nails done with my daughter at 1, they didn't have "time" to do my nails and they close at 6. Maybe understaffed but they weren't good at communicating.

Would never suggest this place. I went here cause my salon was closed. Biggest mistake ever. My nails were all uneven they started coming off only 4 days later spent $120 for full set and pedi with complimentary nail fungus. Ruined my toe nails

I've been trying to find a new nail salon for pedicures. My favorite place closed, & I'm eager to find a similar experience & this was not it for me.

I don't want or need fancy nail art--just very basic polish, but I have arthritis & my feet get very dry, so wanted hydration & some pampering with some massaging b/c my toes get kinked up. That part of the experience was very average at best & she didn't massage my toes.

I've had some challenges in the past with cuticles being clipped, so I asked if they could please skip that, but she didn't understand me & clipped them anyway. She also wanted to cut my toenails. I asked if she could please just file them, but again, she didn't understand, & clipped the corners on my nails, which can cause ingrown toenails. So was kind of frustrated at that point, but it was a done deal, so just proceeded to try to make the best of the rest of it.

The massaging chairs had us laughing b/c I was bouncing from the extreme vibration, so I had to turn it off when she polished my nails or I would have had it all over my feet!  She did a nice job polishing them, but it was not the experience I was looking for.

Thought it was overpriced for a very typical & average pedicure (I bought the mid-range service) & it was just a one size fits all situation & she didn't either listen or understand my simple requests. She seemed to have one way of doing pedicures, so didn't veer off process. It's what everyone gets whether one wants it or not!

Also, my friend requested the basic pedicure, & my service provider insisted she choose the package I had. My friend tried to tell her why she didn't want that, (her skin is sensitive to the scrub, etc) but she said, "You want this one!!!" My friend finally gave up & said fine, but then skipped some things when her nail technician did them, but she was still charged the same as me.

This was my third visit to Andy's Nail Bar and each time I've had an even better experience. I had a wonderful and friendly nail tech who matched the picture example I provided with my color selection. I will be back for my next appointment real soon.

Andy did a great job on my nails, I've had so many compliments and they still look amazing 1 week later. I had a really awful experience at a different nail salon, one of my nails was completely gone. Andy is a miracle worker and still managed to make a nail with what was left of my broken nail. If your looking for somewhere to get designer nails this is the place!
