Quick info
About Modern Nails & Spa
Modern Nails & Spa sits on University Dr in Burlington as a walk-in nail salon with no appointment needed. The service list covers manicures, acrylic nails, builder gel, and fill-ins, alongside eyebrow treatments for those rounding out a visit. Pedicures are offered as a spa package that includes a massage, giving that service more depth than a standard soak and polish. The shop opens daily, giving flexibility to drop in across the week rather than working around limited hours. Clients arrive at the counter and are seen without booking ahead, which suits both quick fill-ins and longer spa pedicure visits. The space itself has been kept clean, a detail that stands out among the shop's routine offerings.

Customer Review Summary
Pedicures draw the most praise, with reviewers repeatedly describing soft, relaxed feet and a massage that left them "rejuvenated." Manicures come in close behind, including builder gel and acrylic sets that reviewers say lasted well, plus a fill-in and eyebrow service one visitor singled out. Several describe being taken in for last-minute or walk-in appointments, including one Mother's Day visit, and one customer recounts bringing in a teenage daughter to correct an issue from another salon, with staff explaining the fix and easing her worry. Customer service and cleanliness come up often, with multiple reviewers calling the staff friendly and caring. One reviewer, however, reports discomfort during a pedicure, noting the technician repeatedly asked her to move without further detail on resolution. The overall pattern closes on repeat visitors, with several saying they returned specifically for the same techs after a first appointment won them over.

“Today was a rough day for me but Kim and Paul made sure I left with a smile and happy. Kim and Paul did a great job on my fill-in and pedicure and my eye brow. They found my favorite color in no time. Thank you Kim and Paul for a great first time together. See you guys soon ♥️”

“Came here after a bad experience somewhere else. And I'm so glad I did. Absolutely the BEST manicure I've ever had. Cindy knew what my hands needed and it really did feel a million times better. I felt bad for Flora my feet were so bad. But I walked out feeling so much better. Will recommend!! And return!”

“I brought my daughter in for treatment for an issue from another spa and they treated her nail immediately. It was near closing and the staff was so nice. I really appreciate the care they took in explaining what happened. She's 15, so they really eased her mind and this worried mom. I highly recommend their services. Great customer service and a strong knowledge in nail care.”
