PAINT Nail Bar Loudoun - Leesburg, Virginia

There are many things I love about this place! There are 2 Kaylas and both are wonderful but have different roles at the salon. Kayla at the front desk is very warm, welcoming and helpful. I’ve tried 3 different nail artists so far based on availability and they’re all great. I’ve tried other salons that make the nails thick and flood the cuticle so when I tried this place I was pleasantly surprised with how neat and how comparatively thin my nails were (in a good way). They can also do impressive nail art and are so sweet and fun to talk to. On top of it, if your 21+ you can have a mimosa while you luxuriate. I’m a fan and got a monthly membership!

I am very torn on my review, but at this point I’m really frustrated. My daughter has been going here for a long time and her nails always look amazing, she has the same tech each time and she really seems to know what she’s doing. My daughter gets the bio seed.

My first appointment was scheduled with a tech that did bio seed as that is what I wanted. The day of, I was told the tech was out sick and my appointment would need to be rescheduled. I was extremely annoyed because this was for my birthday and my daughter and I were booked together for a day out, on my day off. This was in October. They said the only way I could keep my appointment would be to see a different tech and to get gel x. I reluctantly did this because from what I had read and been told and from my daughter’s nails, the bio seed last longer than the gel x. The cost for nails at paint bar is extremely higher than other nail places so to me, they should last a decent amount of time. At two weeks my nails were all peeling up and starting to break and my next appointment was still a week or so away, I let them know about the peeling and I was told that they were just due to be redone. So I did my best to keep the nails on.

My next appointment rolled around and they called the same day again to cancel, the tech was out sick. I was again very annoyed with this and had to reschedule again, but because of the reschedule I could not get the tech I had scheduled and wanted. My nails started really peeling up at this point so I asked for a complementary soak off which was agreed to. When I arrived for my soak off, they told me the tech I was scheduled with was still busy so they put me with another tech… the tech who did the soak off seemed annoyed and rushed, she rushed the soaking part so the product did not come off easily, so she used the players to rip it off instead. Leaving me with very thin brittle nails that all broke before my next appointment.

Next appointment…. I was again not scheduled with the tech I wanted but I was reassured that the tech I was scheduled with was really good. The attached pictures are what my nails looked like after that visit, which cost me $80 before tipping. I had come in with intentions of doing nail art and I was told she didn’t have time for that, yet I was there for 2.5 hours.

After talking to the owner I was refunded and she made sure that my next appointment (today) would be with the tech I had been asking for all along. I just got the phone call that my appointment has been cancelled again, the tech is out sick. My nails are now 3 weeks old and the tech that I want, is not available in the near future so it’s being suggested that I again try another tech in hopes my nails turn out good.

I am a teaching assistant so taking time off work to get my nails done is impossible so I look for school holidays or evenings to get these done and every time it’s cancelled I am put in a difficult situation to try to reschedule.

While I really appreciate the owner refunding me after all the issues, I really just want to be able to get my nails done and keep my appointments. My daughter still uses the same tech and it seems like her appointment is NEVER cancelled so imagine the extra frustration when mine always does. This is now the 4th time this has happened so that’s why I felt the need to leave the review.

I have been to Paint for pedicures in the past. This was the first time I had a gel manicure at Paint. Kaila was my tech and even though my nails were super short, she did a great job. She asked if I wanted certain products when there were options and was careful not to cut me during cuticle treatments. I waited to review to see how the mani held up. It's been just over 2 weeks and no chipping, peeling or cracking. Aside from the normal nail growth over that time, it still looks great!

Loved the vibe, but my nails chipped later the same day! I didn’t have time to get them fixed since I was going out of town. I had gone to PAINT with two other people. One also had several gel nails peel after three days! We had the same nail technician for our manicures. The third person in our group had a different tech and their nails lasted two weeks (gel) with no chipping or peeling. So I guess it largely depends on your tech. I won’t go back again-it’s too risky if you have an event or need your nails done for a special occasion.

My friend and I just walked by and inquired about this establishment and Karen was so kind to walk us through the services and their purpose of non toxic nail treatments. I'm not a nail beauty kinda gal but Karen sold me with her sweet demeanor and vibe of this salon. I've been sitting here smiling nonstop, so relaxed and so happy!! I highly recommend and will come in more often. Loved the pedi in particular and Isabel was lovely. 😀

Allison Finley

I love coming to PAINT bar and getting pedicures! The place is always so clean and inviting. I love that they use all non toxic products! Go see Zoe! She’s amazing! Highly recommend!

Charlotte Bonini

Love this nail salon! Sue is my go to and my nails always look perfect. She shapes them perfectly and so my manis last a long time! (I like my nails short) Won't go anywhere else for a mani! And it’s a plus that there’s no toxic smell!!

I was called twice to push back my appointment which ended up pushing me back an hour later than my original time. When I arrived there was some confusion about who was going to do my service. Once my service was finally started rhe nail tech got up and went to the back and I was left sitting for about 10 minutes. Another nail tech came out and completed mani. I was then passed off to a 3rd tech to do my pedi. Never again !!
