GEM NAILS 1 in Gaithersburg, MD

Come see Tasha or Cindy! Overall, the staff is great & the salon is cute & clean. I have been coming here several weeks & my nails always look great! :)

COME SEE TASHA!! She's amazing, I've been coming to her since I had my first appointment with her right before my wedding. She's super attentive and professional. She's still working on hiring for sure, but everyone is super friendly and it does take some time to build your team. I never have any issues reaching Tasha and she has been able to take me in last minute. She's awesome at designs too, they have everything!! Jewels, butterflies, glitter, hearts, etc. I cannot wait for my next design.

Tasha is one of a kind! She is so meticulous with her work, always does such a clean job. I always get gel when I go to her and it lasts me such a long time without chipping! She's the only one I trust, you will not regret it if you go to her! She's always the sweetest person and so easy to talk to, I've been seeing her now for probably 4-5 years and will not go to anyone else!

UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT My favorite nail technician from Phoenix Nails, Tasha, took over this salon about a month ago. The salon is a bright, clean, and friendly environment. Sanitary measures: They use covers for the pedicure tubs. Technicians are always wearing masks and gloves. All equipment is sterilized before use. I love Tasha! She is very careful, pays attention to every detail, and is extremely gentle. She's also easy to talk to! Now she's conveniently next my CVS and down the street from the Safeway I visit at least 2x a week. You can book online on their website or call in. P.S. Ken is no longer there. It's safe to return.

Booking with Annie is the best choice possible! She is great except maybe on a mad day she did not do as well so to me this place is unreliable. Booking with ken is a nightmare! On at least two occasions i have seen him being hostile with a customer and with another coworker! That poor woman does not work there anymore but she was even better than Annie and she was even consistent with her work! To be specific, a customer asked about the process because her other nail tech did it a certain way and ken was doing it differently. ken REAMED THIS POOR OLD WOMAN OUT saying "i know how to do my job. Are you a nail tech no, so just be quiet and let me do my job." And she kept simply sweetly saying "okay i just wanted to understand" as he continued putting her down. As many people who have worked here and were nice and did a great job, they all leave or get fired. Ken has had many negative reports and reviews and he's STILL THERE. He has got to go, he makes EVERYONE uncomfortable... i get anxious going here because of him and his toxicity. Just scroll through yelp and see how many negative comments mention a male or someone named ken. They're not just negative but his actions are outrageous and unacceptable.
