Anna's Nail Spa in Knoxville, TN

Amazing experience and quality work product by her team even after hours from hours of working at the salon and great convo

Really love this place. My mom and I have been going here a long time. $10 manicure + whatever kind of polish you're getting. Few frills and no fuss. I get anxious easily and they're all really nice and the place isn't huge and loud like some salons. Today an older Asian gentleman with glasses did my nails. I got a dip mani and am really pleased with it. It's a pearl color that's a lot prettier than it looks in a picture. I went about 2pm on a Friday without an appointment and they got me right in.

They are fantastic and I never have any issues. I used to get the gel manicure and then they suggested the dip which is $5 more but so worth the extra money. They are always accommodating and nice to me. I have been going there for years and just recently started going more often then usual.

Crap service and only way you get half decent service is if you are a regular.  Price is average, but did I mention the service SUCKS!!

I got acrylic fill-ins with gel polish for $40. I arrived at 1:20 for a 1:30 appointment and left at 3:20. Two different tech's worked on my nails and neither one seemed happy to be working with me, even though I was their only client at the time I walked in. The middle aged lady who removed my old gel and filled in the acrylics did a pretty good job: 7/10 rating. The young man who actually painted my nails used 3 coats of light pink and the polish looks uneven on 6 of 10 nails. Longer version below if you're interested.

I was out in the Karns area and needed my nails done so I stopped in at noon (on my way to lunch) and asked for a 1:30 appointment. The woman sitting nearest the door said they could do it; therefore I returned at 1:20, at which time I was seated at a station and handed a basket of gel colors from which to choose. The samples looked old- many were smudged or looked dirty; others were X'ed out. There were significantly fewer colors in their basket than in my regular salon. The color I asked for was "out" so I had to make a second selection.

The lady who removed my old gel and reapplied acrylic was polite but not congenial. She did a good job but not a great job -- I though she was really rough the whole time, and I thought her application technique was sloppy; she had to use the Dremel tool a lot to compensate for surface unevenness. About the time the lady finished my nails, a young woman walked in and stated that the polish (dip) on her thumb cracked (she got her nails done 4 days prior) and wanted it fixed. So my lady got up and started working on the girl's nails; at this point she called over a younger guy (who was sitting in a pedicure chair playing on his phone) to come paint my nails. He acted inconvenienced, didn't look at me, and did NOT do a good job painting my nails. Looks like an at-home DIY!!! Not good.  Between the lack of hospitality, the uninvited decor (walls in various stages of remodel, music was pedestrian/amateur piano, elevator-style), and the poor job on my nails themselves, I cannot recommend this establishment.
