M5 NAILS ( Call For Your Appointment )

As I sit in the chair at M5 now, I scan say that they have consistently excellent service. Every single time they deliver. This is my 3rd or 4th time here. They always keep my appointment and see me immediately, even if I’m running a little late. The staff is super sweet. They offer champagne, wine, etc.You can tell that the staff here love each other and have good practices.Trinh did my pedi this time and so far I don’t have a single complaint. They even put the towel over my legs since I’m wearing a dress. Very thorough, very professional.

I had an amazing experience getting my nails done. They look just like the picture I brought in. Everyone was nice and friendly. The atmosphere in the shop was very peaceful and relaxing. I will definitely be coming back.

Sunny did a wonderful job on my nails. I showed her the pic of the reviewer Alyssa Ds nails (see reviewers photos) and said I wanted them done just like hers! She nailed it! I will be back!

Sunny did my nails & they turned out exactly how I wanted them! She really took her time & was thorough. It was my first time in the shop & I’ll definitely be back!

I’m normally a DIY girl but I wanted a design for my birthday and Sunny delivered.That said, I wish the color was closer to my cuticles because at the rate my nails grow, this will look grown out very quickly. I’ve noticed that a lot of nail techs do this for whatever reason so likely sticking to DIY but happy with the design.

Let me start off with that i was there for 4 hours. my appointment was at 2:30. i asked for acrylic nails at a long length with a simple french tip once i realized they couldn’t do extensive nail art. the entire time the technician was doing my nails the manager was watching over him as if he was being tested as a beginner. this was already concerning. when he finished the base it was decent and i was willing to pay $65 for it. however he then went on to do the french tip & couldn’t do it. he tried at least 5 times on one finger and this took around 30 minutes. he would do it, and then rub it off. over and over. another technician came over to do it for him, but then when he went to fill it in, he made the policy bumpy. these nails looked so big and they did not look shaped. they tried to charge me $115 plus tip. i refused because when i tell you these nails were not worth over $100. they were absolutely terrible and messy. i was devastated. i asked them to remove them. i was there for four hours and left with no nails. they were rough with their work as well. they also continued to blame the look of the nails in the length, however i have gotten long nails for years now and never once have they looked likethis until i went to this place.

I have been coming to the salon over 2 years now and love their work. Sunny is super talented and can bring any main design you want to life. I am a loyal customer and can’t imagine going anywhere else for my manicures!

Sunny is truly one of a kind! She can take any design you see on Pinterest and replicate it. This salons service is also unmatched!! I truly love getting my nails done here

I absolutely love it here! I am much newer to this salon but Im shocked by the older reviews! I have come three different times in 2022 and this is where I will always go in DC! Ive been looking for a place with a talented nail artist and I couldnt recommend Sunny (@nails_and_sunny) enough!Ive done gel extensions and dip/gel design with her and my nails last 6 weeks, easily, which is UNHEARD of! Ive had major travel, events for work, etc. and the nails stand the test of time. The space is clean and the staff follow COVID-19 protocols, always masked, etc. I love it here and am so grateful a friend recommended it to me!

Sunny is the absolute best! I’ve been going to her for years. She takes her time and makes sure you’re happy from the beginning to the end. Also, the hot tea is always a nice touch every time I come! 10/10

So welcoming and the staff is personable and lovely. I tried the gel x nails and they’re the most natural nails I’ve ever had. I’m definitely going to a be a regular. Thank you suni!!

So happy! In love with nails! Sunny is amazing she made sure i was comfortable throughout service & took her time. 1000/10 would recommend

Ive been looking for the best place for regular SNS nails and this is the spot! Beautiful nails and extremely detail oriented staff. Highly recommend!

Such a good salon in the dc area! Sunny did such a great and meticulous job. Will definitely be back

Very detailed and professional. Works very fast too, took me as soon as I came in. Sunny was so sweet and made sure I loved my set.

Great customer service. I walked in without an appointment and was warmly received and served. Also, I learned about hybrid gel which is healthier so I am very happy about it. Thank you for your great work and I’ll definitely come back

I’ve been here a times and have the best experience every time. I get the cutest prettiest girlie pop nails. They have a ton of nail colors and gem options. 🥰🎀❤️

I love Sunny and Lida so much! They are so kind and sweet. I love my nails every single time I leave. 10/10! ❤️

I absolutely love this place. I highly recommend them, especially Sunny, she did amazing on the cat eye nails I got a couple weeks ago.

Walk pass every day and just decided to stop in. I was offered champagne! Amazing fast clean service! They care about your nails! I will be returning !

Second time coming here and let me just tell you Sunny is amazing. Everything is super clean which we all know very important especially now.

Sunny is amazing! She is so talented and kind! Her work is amazing!

The ladies at M5 are great. They are friendly and polite. I always love my gel manicure and pedicure. They have great designs. I will continue to go to this salon.

I love getting gel-x nails done here! Sophy and Sunny are the best and they are able to do so many designs! I would recommend anyone get their nails done here 🤗

Best salon in DC by far!! Best nails I’ve ever got done, can’t say enough good things about this place, it’s a must!

I love this place! Every manicure I have had here has lasted a long time. The people that work here are very kind, and the atmosphere is always relaxed. Come here if you want to relax and get a good manicure!

M5 nails is one of the best salons I’ve visited. They are professional, courteous, and friendly. SOPHY is my go to girl and has been for YEARS!! She is creative, funny, and detailed. She’s a perfectionist and will always make sure you are happy. This place deserves more than 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great place! Got my nails done here twice and I was happy both times! Definitely recommend!

Absolutely amazing nails! The coolest nails that I have ever had in my whole life. It does not get better than this.

I’ve been coming to M5 for years and love it. All the staff are extremely talented and so kind and I love my nails and pedis every time. Highly recommend!

Hello everyone. I am writing this review while still in the salon, to be honest. Amazing job. Gone here a several times and always have a wonderful experience. The service is quick and all the ladies are friendly. The design is something they take their time on and perfect. They always nail the inspo photo I bring in and always squeeze me in quickly from when I call which is always day of or last minute. Most affordable in the area and high quality job with great care taken to cleaning, filing and shaping the nails. So so friendly. Will continue to come back!

The salon located near my office. just walk and its so convenient. It was my first time and I had Brazilian, gel manicure and pedicure with Chi. She did awesome work!!! I cannot wait to come back on Thursday for same service with Chi. Oh yes, they offer champagne or red wine! :) I suggest the place and Chi to all my friends. My gel on my finger nails and nail polish on my toes are still intact perfectly! Thank you Chi and see you soon!

Sunny did an amazing job the results speak for themselves. Tailored experience.

This is my favorite salon in dc after trying many other popularly rated spots - I’ve been coming here for over a year. I usually work with Sunny and Sophie for my gel-x manicures and designs and they’re AMAZING. The rest of the staff are also very welcoming and helpful when I come in for my random pedi’s. Highly recommend!

I love mimosa and have been coming for years. They have the best nail techs and so professional.

I came to M5 after my GelX manicure was chipping the same day I got it done at another nail salon. Sunny at M5 gave me the exact shape and look I was going for. My nails look incredible and I highly recommend!!

Absolutely love this place!! I’ve gotten my nails done here a couple of times and every single time they turn out perfect :) Sophy does an incredible job (honestly everyone there is amazing). Would definitely recommend stopping by!

Sunny is such a sweet person who’s incredibly talented!! My nails turned out perfectly. The place is so cute and clean 🩵

Great experience and great service. I went to David and told he what I was wearing for an event I had coming up and oh boy did he deliver. I decided to try M5 nails esp with their reputation for nail art and Im super super happy my experience. Nails came out looking so nice, David did a really great job with base nail care and the nail art exactly what I asked for and gave helpful recommendations on color and design and he was a fun person to chat with during the experience. Ive had so many compliments on my nails and they have stayed in great shape. They did such a good job and were exactly what I was wanting. Overall, would recommend.

M5 nails is one of my regular go to nail spots in the Washington, DC 20006 are. David did a great job on my sns with matte gel topcoat. They are quick and efficient and I was able to get an appointment the same day I called to inquire. Theyre so professional and extremely polite. Did not have to wait at all to be helped and got a really quality manicure done. The nail techs are very kind and attentive. Definitely recommend trying this place. So happy with these nails and I know they will last at least 3 weeks!

I love this place. Although you definitely have to find your favorite person. Im happy with the results. I go to M5 NAILS to see Lida all the time. She has been my nail tech for almost 3 years and I one thousand percent recommend her. Shes always nice, gentle and her work is amazing. The service was done carefully. The remove of previous nails was well done and didnt ruin my nails. It was very important to me to keep my nail strong. So and I happy with my pedicure too. Lida and Sophy did really good job. Eventually youll find your person. It was great service in new and clean salon. Im going to come back!

I have been coming yo this nail salon for a dew months now and they never disappoint. Great service always. I lover everyone who works there. Everyone is so kind and meticulous in the best way when working on nails. Sophy was amazing. Fun atmosphere and super clean. I had a ton of creative ideas for my birthday nails and Sophy was made it happen. My birthday nails were so dope. Worth it. Feel free to share your ideas with the techs. They will do their best to give you the best service. The prices are reasonable and you wont get better nail art in the city. Love it here will be back.

Great business and Sophy and Lida did such a wonderful job on my nails. I dont get my nails done often but the last couple of times I came here & fell in love with the service. They are so attentive, accommodating, make you feel comfortable & pampered. Cute little spot that is clean and has lots of options recommended to call ahead for an appointment. My nails always last forever & I get so many compliments on them. I fell like they really knew their stuff and I would totally come back. Will continue to return. Thank you Sophy and Lida!

Finally got an appointment! And Im so glad. The best Gelx, French tip, design, mani service Ive gotten in the DMV. A friend has been recommending I come here (and she drives from MD) and I have to say the recommendations and hype are legit. Friendly staff, clean spot, and general amazing place. Its DC so read parking signs 4x (not an issue for my appointment time tho). Ill be back!

Always come here & always pleased with my nails & the service.

Very nice and attentive.This place was comforting and peaceful which is nice after a long day of work. The ladies were really nice too and that goes a long way. I really loved my experience and I received so many compliments on my nails.

M5 Nails is the best! They have excellent customer service, a huge selection of polish, and do the best work. My nails stay chip free for weeks. If you are looking for nail art, you have to see Sunny. You won’t be disappointed!

I love this place and Sophy is amazing. She always takes good care of me and can do any design I bring her. They always keep my cup full with champagne as well! Small and quiet and usually no wait. They also do Gel X which lasts about 4 weeks and it’s rare to find that in DC.

Came here initially out of necessity as it was close to my doctor’s office and I needed an emergency fix on my nails but it was such a nice surprise! Great service (and so patient with how indecisive I was), great work, lots of colors, and a very cute place aesthetically. Definitely will return!

M5 Nails is a great nail salon. The atmosphere is always peaceful and warm. Every nail tech is pleasant and welcoming. I do not mind driving downtown for great customer service. I will always recommend this nail salon in the DC area.

I have been searching for my new nail salon in dc for YEARS. Finally found it! Super attentive, professional and know what they’re doing. I came in for a dip manicure and it was the best one i’ve had in this area in a very long time. Lida was AMAZING! Thank you M5 Nails!!!!

I have been coming to M5 for almost 2 years. I have never had a bad experience. I see Sunny for my manicures and they are always beautiful. She is so talented and I would not trust anyone else with my nails. Her attention to detail and her talent to create something so beautiful is magnificent. She always makes sure it is something I like and communicates with clients on options for their nail art.The pedicures are amazing as well and reasonably priced. I always get a basic pedi with gel. I have had most technicians service my pedis and all have been great. It does not feel rushed and the polish application has lots of detail so it comes out looking neat and clean. Lots of polish options to pick from and pedicures are very sanitary. am shocked at older reviews! The salon is clean with a calming atmosphere. I am always offered a beverage during my service and the technicians are all very accommodating and helpful.

When I first moved to D.C this was the first place I came and fell in love! They are so friendly and always do a great job. Sophy always does amazing work! 10/10 would recommend!!

I have been going to this salon for a long time now (formally called Mimosa Salon) and couldn’t say enough better things. The staff are always so kind, genuinely happy to see you, and do an amazing manicure/pedicure. Sunny is my favorite for intricate designs and they are always super flexible with booking appointment times. Highly recommend this place. Couldn’t say better things about this salon.

I have been coming to this location for years now, I always see Sunny and Sophie for pedicures. Sunny is so incredibly talented she just knows me so well how I like my nails, the shape, the length, and colors I like. I’m so thankful I found her on Instagram years ago. I constantly get compliments on my nails I tell everyone about Sunny because she’s the bomb duh! The pedicure is always amazing as well the candle oil they use to massage is so nice, I’m very picky about my pedicures because I work on my feet a lot and Sophie always does such an amazing job.when she does my feet I never have any in-grown nail pain. Everyone there is pretty amazing, the new management has changed things for better. Give it a try!

Best place I’ve been to honestly, as a guy trying new stuff they made me feel comfortable. Sophy always does a great job for me and is my go to person now. Definitely pull up!

Very thorough on the pedicure and the gel overlay. Looking forward to making this my new go to nail salon, it’s what I’ve been missing the past two years!

Sunny is amazing and can literally execute any design you can dream up! And your nails will last a MONTH. I also love to get the CBD pedicure, which they can do for you while you get your nails done to get you in and out! 10/10!

Loveee my nails!! Sunny does such amazing work!! High recommended!!!

Sunny is great! I love M5 Nails. Great service and staff!

I had an appointment with Sophy today and everything was amazing ! The most relaxing experience I’ve had at a nail shop in a while, She was very gentle , and attentive to exactly what I needed. My pedicure , manicure, and waxing was 10/10 . I will be back in two weeks she has a forever customer. If you are in the area check her out you won’t regret it

Great first time experience. Yuna and Sophy were great. Both were very quick and friendly and conversational. Prices are reasonable especially for the high quality and cleanliness that you get wouldnt go anywhere else in Washington, DC 20006. Yuna and Sophy definitely coming back here especially because I made them stay so late. Was not in a rush to do my services and everything came out perfect. The service here was awesome. I brought them a specific design and they executed it perfectly. I also got a pedicure and its the best one Ive had in a while. Definitely recommend coming here. Yuna and Sophy did such a great job!

Best nail salon in DC! I’ve never been more impressed, will never go anywhere else. ask for Sunny!!

Loved my first experience at M5 nails ! sophy was able to fix one of my broken acrylics and maintain the length and shape of my nails. + all the staff were great ! definitely will be coming back

I get pedicures with gel French tip, and Sophy does an amazing job every time! She did my first pedicure at M5 nails, and I always make my appointment with her bc she pays close attention to every detail.

Never again. Avoid this place, they were even trying to charge me for the manicure. Ended up paying 30 dollars for this painful pedicure!! Go somewhere else! I am in so much pain, the manager didn’t even cared to ask if I needed anything. (For some reason I am not able to post the pictures of the cut of my foot and hand directly on this review)

Great experience! Loved the color and attention to detail.

Love M5, my first time going I won their monthly pedicure raffle. They do an amazing job with manicures too, definitely my new go to salon!

I have been going to this salon for over two years and I am consistently amazed by the talent and care the nail technicians give to every client! Sunny is the best, but everyone at the salon is amazing. I receive soooooo many compliments on my nails. I couldn’t recommend more!!!

Love this salon! Super efficient, flexible, and paid meticulous attention to my nails. Will definitely be back!

Amazing customer service, products and can execute all the latest nail trends. The attention to detail is so appreciated as many nail salons now are assembly lines with no care. Love M5!

I WILL NEVER GO TO THIS PLACE AGAIN!! SO UNPROFESSIONAL AND NOT THE CLEANEST PLACE. I called 3 days ago for an appointment. I spoke to someone and I scheduled my appointment for today at 1 pm. I get there 12:50 and they tell me to sit down at pedicure chair, 5 minutes later they tell me that they dont have an appointment for me and I had to get up and leave and come back later on. Im so glad I left, because I found a BEAUTIFUL CLEAN PROFESSIONAL Nail Spa- VENUS on 22 and L street, NW. DONT GO TO MIMOSA

Soph is TOP NOTCH! I get so many compliments regardless of the design. She kills it every time. Everyone is awesome in the shop too - just lovely.

Favorite nail salon :) have been going here for three years after trying 4-5 different nail salons in the area and this place is definitely my favorite. Highly recommend if you want a great manicure!

I have been going to this salon for a year and they never disappoint!! It was hard finding a salon when I first moved to DC, but this has been my primary salon. Sunny and Sophia always do a phenomenal job!! Highly Recommend!

Came on my lunch break and was seated immediately. They are very friendly. I saw Lida, and will definitely come back. She shapes nails really well.

I got my nails done for Halloween and so happy with the shape, design and services. Highly recommend!!!

I go here regularly and have been a client of Sopheary’s for a while. I get a pedicure and Gel X and she is AMAZING! The nails last and she’s able to do all types of designs and styles so it’s always fun coming and letting her be creative.

Do not come here! This is not under the original staff/team. The charged me $280 for a full set on myy hands and feet!! I had no design. before I sat down I asked for myy previous nail tech (because over the phone they said he was there) they said he was late. Whole time he was never there!! Then they sat me with a woman. Now she was a lovely woman and her customer service was amazing. She really tried to make my experience nice. It gave the impression that she was being forced to not disclose the prices and that they are under new management. 🤷🏾‍♀️And they only disclosed this information after myy nails wasn’t finished. Now I didn’t ask for the price because I didn’t think the were gonna charge me almost 300 for a simple full set. It’s not that I can’t afford it. It’s the principle. And I already knew if I tried to state myy disappointment they would have called the police. Now this happened weeks ago. And I was debating on even posting this but I don’t want this to happen to someone else. Oh and all of the nail polish/powders are expired. They nails only lasted a week. A WEEK!! You can go in and look at the discoloration of the polishes yourself. I’m just so sad they really messed up what the previous team built. Be aware nail family! Oh n PS the nails that I posted are NOT done by them! They were done by the previous staff.

My favorite nail salon as its so close to my workplace! Great service!

Great experience! They started right at my scheduled appointment time and it was an extremely peaceful experience. I’ll be back.

Amazing experience. From the moment we walked in they were very attentive and welcoming. Took their time and did a great job!

Sunny is awesome. Her skills are like no other. Shes always pleasant and makes sure my cup is never empty. I highly recommend

I come here often and would 100% recommend it to anyone. Great service, and super clean. Super close to GW so girlys set your appointment!

Amazing service. Thick gel. Doesn’t chip. Love love love. Best in Dc.

Great service every time. I get natural nails, gel, brow wax. Always on time, very nice staff, nails look great

Im always satisfied with my nails when I get them done here. Sunny does a great job with shaping and design!

I have been coming to this salon regularly for over 6 months and wouldn’t trust my nails anywhere else in the city. Gel x extensions, design, etc. Amazing service and quality of work

Everyone here is super nice and my nails have never looked better!!! 10/10 definitely recommend

I got a pedicure done here, it was a lovely experience!! Very friendly and made sure I had everything I needed :)

Sophy does an outstanding job on my manicures and pedicures. She is very professional with a high attention to detail. I highly recommend this business.

Great salon. Had an amazing back chair massage and they have so many color for you to choose from! They are fast and efficient.

David did an incredible job on my nails! Not only was the service outstanding, but the overall sanitation and care was outstanding 🙌

The best my nails ever looked, and staff is so sweet and accommodating!

I have been going to this location for many years!!! Sophy is great with designs. It is always clean, professional, and friendly. The new hot wax pedicure is awesome too!!!!

Thank you M5 nail salon for give us the best service and expirience ever! Sophy is the sweetest and best nail tech! Very sartisfy with your services!

I love M5! Always high quality- so detail oriented and professional. Wouldn’t go anywhere else ;)

Lovely atmosphere and great attention to detail on your nails! Highly recommend M5 nails! :)

Everyone at the salon is super nice and does a great job. Really good color selection for gel and they’re open a little later than most salons.

This was my first time coming here and they did a fantastic job! They were timely and very friendly, I will for sure be returning.

I’ve been here several times and have loved my gel-x nails. Go see Sunny!

Ive been here three times so far and have gotten three gel manicures and one pedicure. Ive been struggling to find a nail salon for a good gel manicure at a reasonable price. Id say $32 isnt too bad for DC. Im not sure if they charge to remove the gel, but I wouldnt be surprised since most salons do. The salon has so many colors to choose from for gel manicures, which is nice because you could go dozens of times and try out a new color every single visit. The first gel manicure was nice, they put on these collagen gloves that moisturize your hands while protecting them from the UV light in the dryer. It held up pretty well, but began chipping about a week and a half in. The second manicure was terrible. I didnt get the gloves and my nails chipped in a few days and the woman who did it didnt paint the whole nail or the top of the nails. However, the third manicure I got seems to be doing pretty well! The lady was great at trimming my cuticles and was very meticulous when it came to painting them. I guess it just depends who you get.As for the pedicure, pretty average, but held up well over time.

Excellent job and very impressed by Sophi! I found me a new Nail Tech. Can’t wait to come back!

Lida is 1000% amazing! She is so timely and will pay attention to the smallest of details! So happy I found her!

I usually have a really good experience at mimosa but yesterday I went in and the male technician that I had was not great at all. He was pretty rude to me from the beginning and was ordering me around while getting my nails done. He cut one of my toenails extremely short and when filing I even said ouch and moved it away but he kept cutting and filing the rest the same way. Now I’m up in the middle of the night with my toe throbbing in pain. Not sure what I’m suppose to do as it hurts to even put pressure or any weight on it!!! I also got a gel manicure after the pedi. It looks terrible, the mail polish began to shrink as the nails were drying and I kept having to out but he didn’t say anything to me about it until after all nails were done. He did end up removing a layer and using a different polish. The color was fine but the quality was not great. My nails look super thick and bubbly, like there’s a ton of polish layered on. I used to love coming to mimosa on other occasions and told a lot of friends about them. But I will not be going back to this location or at least beware of the male technician with the eyebrow piercing- he was not good technically, injured me and was not friendly at all. I wish mimosa would do something to make my experience right.

Terrible service. I’ve never written a review, but because I know people like and trust other Mimosa salons around the city (me included), I wanted to say something. If there are competent technicians at this location, I have not seen them. I’ve been to this location on a few occasions for pedicures, and every time the work is rushed and sloppy. Yesterday, I went for a pedicure and the technician cut my foot, failed to remove all the nail polish I had on prior so it was sticking out from underneath the lighter new shade applied, and did the sloppiest polish job I have ever received. I asked (and was charged) for callous removal, which was performed dry and inadequately.

Great service from the moment you walk in! Offer of drink options is awesome!! Attention to details and my feet felt brand new!

I am not going to explain everything that I experienced at this salon just now. I will just say horrible customer service from the moment I entered.The woman seemed disturbed that she had to do a customer. She seemed disturbed the entire time she was doing my nails, except for when shes stopped to take selfies of herself. She was rude and rolled her eyes when I couldnt understand what she was saying due to her voice being extremely quiet and her accent. My nails look like I filed them myself. If it wasnt for the professional polish, one would think I did my own nails at home.The people working there were not very friendly. Ok, I have to say what I experienced because it is not good. I made an appointment online. When I went today and said I made an appointment, I was told that Jimmy comes in late and I would have to reschedule. I asked if there was someone else available, because it wasnt offered and people who work there were sitting around. She pointed to a seat. I have never experienced such a low quality of service at a nail salon and I will not be going back. I was not offered even a glass of water.Also if you make an appointment online, I was advised that they do not know. So no one there has either resolved this issue, nor have they taken it down to book an appointment online. They look at you like you are stupid because you made the appointment online. It was just horrible. I have never been treated like that in a nail salon before and I have been going to nail salon for 30 years.They were rude and I couldnt bring myself to leave a tip

Best pedicure I have ever had!!!

Very nice and friendly people working here. They got me in as soon as I arrived with no issues. I give 3 🌟 because they did a mediocre job on my nails. Definitely wasnt as good a job as the person who previously did them. I personally wouldnt go here unless I needed something very basic.

Lida & Sophy we’re very hospitable,Lida made sure she listened to my ideas and she she brought them to life, an offered services that I wanted but was unaware of: M5 Nails is my new spot for services.

Just gotta Pedicure today, love love love. Customer service is superb! They look amazing.! Please go and check out I street M5 nail salon

This is the absolute WORST place to get your nails done. Avoid at all cost. And they have the nerve to be expensive! I’ve paid a total of 110 for my full set and pedicure and within a week have been to the shop to get 6 of my nails repaired. And no I don’t work a tedious job that involves my hands I work in an office and sit at a desk all day. The initial tech who did my nails took forever due to the 8 breaks he took to smoke and eat. And when I came to get my nails repaired they charged me even though it had only been a week. 5 dollars a nail per repair and the technicians who fixed them didn’t even make them even. This is the worse nail shop in DC and super expensive. Do not waste your money or time. I will be getting my nails redone this weekend.

Love my nails! Sunny did an amazing job:)

This was the worst salon I have ever been to. I paid $80 dollars for gel manicure with regular pedicure and it was a waste of money. My gel nails started peeling after 2 days and now it’s been a week and they are all coming off . I don’t now if it’s the nail polish they use or if it’s because they only put it under the lamp once even after I asked if they could do another layer. I am never coming back and won’t recommend this salon to anyone.

Ive been here several times, as the prices are generally a bit lower than elsewhere. Service is pretty standard, there have been a couple of instances where my fingers/toes were cut but mistakes do happen! Got gypped on my most recent visit though, the tech charged for a Mimosa pedicure which I very definitely did not receive!

The service was amazing and I loved how my nails turned out!

Super friendly great service

M5 nails is the best place to check out! Very clean, relaxing and has the best staff! I recommend sophy and sunny 🤩

I love this spot! They are really efficient and doing a great job. Request Sophy if you’re going in!

Sunny is great at what she does! Thorough work and up to date on the newest techniques.

I’ve been getting serviced by Sophy for years now! She’s the absolute best with my manicures and pedicures.

They must have been ready to go because this job was super tacky and the guy was really rude I will stick to going to the Mimosa in DuPont

Great, quiet place to get an after-work manicure. My technician was thoughtful, attentive, and professional. Will definitely visit again. I got a pedicure, manicure, and brow wax.

Best manicure I’ve had in DC! Highly recommend the gelx as well!

I do not recommend going to Mimosa Salon. There were very little covid precautions in place. The salon was dirty, tools were being used without being washed, gloves were removed during my manicure, and there was very little social distancing. I’m not sure the health department has ever visited this place even prior to COVID-19.My nail technician was on the phone two different times & on speaker. He kept looking away while using the drill on my nails causing a nick.Additionally I was charged more than the price listed online.My nails are decent, but the experience was awful and there’s places with better results and a cheaper price.

I went today for the first time and had a great experience. My technician was nice, and did a great job. She was quick too but the outcome wasnt compromised. I will be back!

Some of the technicians are way worse than others. Fingers crossed that you get a decent one 😐 Ive tried them 3 times and 3rd strike, youre out. The first time it was so terrible that I went back for them to do it over - bad idea. Even worse idea - going back again. This time the technician starts by quickly cutting off all of my nails without asking, so that he has less work to do. When informed that that was absolutely not requested, his response - Come back in a month when the nails grow back. No apology or acknowledgement or anything. Needless to say, I wont be going back in a month.

Amazing service from David at M5-Nails! My toes are so cute and my skin feels so nice!!

DONT DO IT! This is my third or fourth time going to Mimosa and this experience killed it for me. Usually I go to the other locations in Dupont but came to this location to fix ONE broken nail. The guy who did my nails rushed and was not nice AT ALL. He ended up skipping layers on my gel manicure and now FOUR of my own are breaking. Two of them have completely broken in half and I got my nails done a WEEK AGO. Literally 7 days ago. It’s not like I’m doing anything that would cause my nails to break either.P.S if you do go, WHICH I DO NOT RECOMMEND, do not let the guy with the gemstone jewelry touch your nails.

Very friendly and clean! Loved the way my nails turned out!

Their work use to last forever. But lately the technicians have been speeding through appointments and it’s starting to show. Last week I went in for a gel powder manicure. It literally popped off a week later. $45 dollars down the drain. Beware!!!

Sunny is the best and the milk & honey pedicure is amazing! Could not recommend more.

Sunny hits it out the park EVERY. SINGLE. TIME! Do yourself a favor and BOOK NOW! The only thing you’ll regret is not booking an appointment sooner.😉

The girl who did my nail was always on the phone. She was so rude. I was really offended . She would ask me to turn my hand with her finger.... and at the payment she charged me $80 for pedi-manicure, while I booked on the wed site an appointment for $60 . It wasn’t worth arguing , it is limit she was abusive . Done waist your money . They are awful ....

This is my first time writing a review, but I had too nexuses for the price I paid ($45) to get my nails done, one of my nails just popped off! Today is October 5, 2018 and I got my nails (SNS powder) done on September 28, 2018; it’s been 7 days. SNS powder is supposed to last and usually last me 2 1/2 - 3 weeks. Why did my nail pop off? Why are 6 of my other nails loose and coming off? I have the slightest clue. I have not been rough with my hand at all. The only thing I can think of is the poor quality of material they have. I will NEVER be back here ever again. I’m so sad because now I have to find somewhere else to get my nails done before I go out of town. Be ware! Don’t get SNS done here!

Good customer service, peaceful experience, and the only place in DC I trust for gel-x. Ask for Sophie.

I come regularly for gel manicures and they always do a fantastic job!

Sophy is the best, I’ve been going here for years now to get my nails done.

Sophy is the best super nice and so caring!! all the employees always have good attitude

Loved it! nails looked great and loved the color options and staff :)

Bad experience -- they were 30+ minutes late for my scheduled appointment, and acted offended when I asked about timing. My pedicure then smudged after putting on my shoes an hour later.

Paula did an amazing job with the pedicure, and Soph did phenomenal work on my nails!!!

Great service! Did manicure and pedicure and David was fantastic!

Great and competent service. I arrived well beyond the closing time aaaand the last still asked and did what I was looking to do. Sanitary practices and great selection of colour. Plus you need to live the happy hour 27usd for gel.

Thank you so much David for doing my nail!!I really like it!! Great job!!

Sunny was great! Best nails I’ve had in DC, highly recommend!

Sophy does the best gel x nails! A must-go salon.

Im a nail girl, so a place that offers champagne while youre getting pampered cant be beat! M-F They have a nail happy hour fo gel manis $27. I personally prefer a gentlemen to do my mani/pedi because in my experience theyre more attentive and detailed. Sometime my gel manis wont last two weeks, but my pedicures always do. I wouldnt suggest going on the weekend unless you HAVE to. They also have another location on 18th which is a little bigger.

David is the best! I highly recommend. Great service. Clean and professional!

Sophy is the best! Such great attention to detail and excellent customer service!

Ive only had great experience here. Highly recommend to those looking for a reliable spot!!

Very attentive and helpful! Also they are open to 11pm everyday which is amazing.

Great acrylic manicure! I’ll definitely be a returning customer.

I love my nails and feet this place was like home great staff and environment

WORST experience ever. Someone answered the phone and could not speak English yet I asked to talk with someone else. I got to the nail shop, and over the phone I was told I would pay $45 for acrylic nails WITH powder. My nail lady then told me that it would be $55. After asking the manager she also told me $55 also and knew the lady who answered the phone in the morning couldn’t speak or understand English either. Poor service. And on top of all this, my nail lady coughed over my champagne. Unacceptable.

Love my nails! Wonderful attention to detail.

Great experience, amazing care and lovely manicure!

This is the worst manicure i have ever gotten. They charged me 50$ for a fill and while i was there my nail artist was just straight up rude to me. Ignoring me and yelling at me if i did something wrong. Also it was gel acrylic and they didn’t last. Don’t go here

Came here during my lunch hour and got a beautiful ombré acrylic set, really nice technician and I love the nails. They look awesome!

Hit or miss. If you get a good technician, it’s worth the price. If you get one of the rushed, hasty ones, good luck! Also had to walk away twice due to them leaving the station dirty (as in cuticles and nail clippings everywhere and the same set of tools out, etc.).

Love this place! David & Sopheary do a great job every time.

I went here because i saw they had 4 stars, i am not sure why that is :(. I paid $50 for a gel fill + tip, only for 1 nail to start chipping away at just 3 days and the next one chip 2 days after that. I did go and get the 1st one fixed but just gave up getting the 2nd one fixed. Secondly, I get on a Thursday that a nail salon can get busy (so it is loud in general) but it is extremely rude for the staff to be sitting next to a client being loud and obnoxious so they can talk to their other coworker who is working on someone elses nails. If I do not want to be paying 50+ dollars to be in the middle of a conversation literally and uncomfortable.3rd- the place was filthy and damaged, it did not look clean and polished like the pictures.

Got there at 7:15, and there were people in chairs but they wouldn’t take me. Says they close at 8pm online. Either update your hours or actually close early.

Excellent service, attention to detail. I have been very pleased with all of my services!

I love this place! Sophy is so talented and I always leave here feeling great!!

Literally the worst sns manicure I’ve ever had. It was a terrible experience my nails are uneven and still dirty from the week. Will never return but hopefully they enforce a no movie policy when working on nails.

Sunny is incredible and so gentle!

I had such an amazing experience! the attention to detail and care was fabulous!

Jason was great! He was attentive to detail and my nails came out great, and was very friendly. Will definitely be back.

Perfect GelX set!

Monday to Wednesday Gel Manicure for $27! Cant beat that with a stick.

Great $30 gel polish change. Coming back for sure

Amazing designs! My new go to nail salon.

The best nail salon in dc!!! They treat me very well

Very attentive and caring people work here. Had a very relaxing and great experience getting my nails done here with friends.

Rude and inconsistent. Some of the technicians are excellent and others are horrible. The receptionist is exceptionally rude. However, Jesse is great for waxing.

Very welcoming. David was very efficient and professional

I set an appointment for acrylic full set nails for them to tell me when I get there they cant do designs and that person who does designs isnt here till next week, if I want plain nails I can do that myself,

Awesome service and very friendly! Would highly recommend 👍

Appointment was booked for today at 10:00 AM. At 10:05 salon was completely locked and closed. No one ever showed up.

The guy I had wasnt very nice and the light to set my gel manicure with was kinda janky, but everyone else seemed to be having just a great time!

Worst manicure I have had in a really long time.

Excellent service. Very professional and such a good job!

Megan did an amazing job!!!

Love the service!! love the nails!’

Best nail salon!! Sunny is amazing 🤩

Well did not get the Special on the gel, but I love the atmosphere and my pedicurist was very nice

Great service and quality . I keep coming back every month

Never again, male manicurist nicked my finger and didnt apologize. No hot towel used either, couldnt get out of the place fast enough!

Amazing place! Nith is great!

Very nice atmosphere and services include a lot of nice extras

Wonderful customer service! Very welcoming & they did a great job. I highly recommend it

Job well done. Great attention to detail.
