Quick info
About Tina Nails
Tina Nails is a nail salon on Marlboro Pike in Capitol Heights, near the DC and Maryland border. The menu covers gel and acrylic manicures, pedicures, and builder gel or liquid gel work. The room is small, kept clean and organized, with low music playing during service. Multiple techs work the floor, and customers can request a specific one. The salon operates on a walk-in basis and opens daily, making it workable for regular upkeep visits, including every two weeks for some. Staff and customers interact in a familiar, ongoing way built through repeat visits rather than one-off appointments.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers consistently return for their manicures and pedicures, with several praising one technician who "pays great attention to detail" on chrome and gel sets, and another stylist repeatedly singled out for copying a reference "perfectly" and nailing the requested look. Pedicures earn steady mentions too, including one describing feet left "smooth" afterward. Beyond the nail work, many describe a friendly, family like atmosphere, calling the space clean and well organized despite being small, with a few noting a welcoming greeting and a relaxed vibe with low music. Complaints center on inconsistency between technicians: one reviewer seeking liquid gel or builder gel found the result "bulky" and uneven, with gel applied lazily enough to start peeling before reaching the car, and rudeness when asking for a fix. Another reviewer reports gel nails chipping the very next day, and a further review describes a visit where nails came out badly and complaints went unresolved. Several longtime customers, some returning for years, mention requesting specific technicians on repeat visits.

“This is my new favorite nail salon. It is conveniently located near the DC and Maryland border in Capitol Heights. I discovered it after they recently reopened following an accident when a car drove into the shop, and I am so glad they are back. The salon is clean, welcoming, and although it is on the smaller side, the interior is much more modern and inviting than many of the other shops along Marlboro Pike. They also offer all the latest nail trends, including chrome, so it is definitely worth stopping by if you are looking for fast, high quality service. Be sure to ask for Angel. She pays great attention to detail, takes her time, and consistently does excellent work. I have been extremely happy with my nails and will definitely be coming back.”

“I love this salon. It has a friendly family like atmosphere between the staff and customers. It's not the fanciest salon, but it's clean and well organized with comfortable furnishings. I've been going there for about 9 years.”

“This place had good reviews so I was excited try but I was sorely disappointed. I’ve been looking for somewhere in the area that does liquid gel/ builder gel because I can’t find a Russian manicure salon. The man who sits in the front is apparently the only one who can do it. He did an okay job; it was built bulky my nails weren’t even but the issue is that he was extremely ride when I asked him to fix it. On top of that as soon as I got to my car I realize he applied the gel very lazily and it was about to peel off. I had to go back in to have it fixed. The lady who did my pedicure was very nice but again it wasn’t the best quality.”
