Customer Review Summary
Opinions on Tippi Toes split sharply between reviewers who single out one nail technician for nail art, upfront pricing, and clean cuticle work with tight refills, and a same-day appointment they were glad to get, versus a cluster of dissatisfied customers. Complaints recur around rushed, sloppy applications, with one reviewer describing coffin-shaped acrylics that didn't match between hands and came out fat and curved at the edges, and another noting big bumps from too much polish applied hastily. Several describe paying a notable amount for results they felt fell short, and one reviewer reports the same technician cut her finger during the service. Booking also drew friction: one customer who requested that technician by name says she was given someone else and had to wait. On the positive side, a walk-in was seated immediately and praised the result as fantastic, and first-time visitors mention being greeted warmly and finding the space clean.

“My nails are suppose to be coffin its cut in the shape but it's not matching the other hand length some are fat and curved on the edges I will not be returning it was my first time here KEEP IN MIND I ONLY GOT ACRYLIC NO POLISH BECAUSE I CAN DO DESIGNS MYSELF AND I WAS STILL CHARGED 41 DOLLARS WASTE OF MONEY”
- Lindsay Martinez
“I didnt enjoy my experience here. Technician didnt do a good job - you can see in the pictures nail polish doesnt even have a nice finished look like its supposed to and I paid a little over $70. I was also really uncomfortable during my manicure since it was done right there at the pedicure chair. The is barely any space in those chairs and technician had the soaking bowl and uv lamp there instead of taking me to one of the tables. I had to bend in weird ways when switching hands and one of my legs even fell asleep. Service really wasnt worth the money and place was not crowded since it was a weekday so I can only imagine on busy days.”
