About Tip & Toe Salon

On Washington St in Rochester, Tip & Toe Salon is a nail salon that takes clients on a walk-in basis, with no appointments required. The deluxe gel pedicure rounds out with warm towels, a sugar scrub, lotion, and a hot stone calf massage, and gel pedicure pricing is split into two tiers depending on the option chosen. Manicures close with a hand and arm massage. Several nail techs work at once, so more than one client is served at a time. The salon opens every day of the week except Tuesdays.

Customer Review Summary

Deluxe gel pedicures draw repeat praise, with reviewers describing warm towels, sugar scrub, and a hot stone calf massage as standout touches, and several say they returned specifically for this service. Close behind, walk in gel manicures earn compliments for being efficient and well shaped, with one reviewer highlighting a manicurist who added a hand and arm massage. Others mention the welcoming atmosphere and staying loyal for years after trying several other salons. The recurring complaint centers on gel and acrylic durability: multiple reviewers report nails chipping within three to four days despite paying for shellac or fill services, with one attributing it to techs juggling several clients at once and rushing. Pricing inconsistency also surfaces, as a couple of reviewers describe being charged different amounts for the same design on repeat visits. One reviewer also describes a technician declining to wrap nails during an acetone soak, citing decades of experience with no issue.

    “I’ve been looking for a place for a great pedicure. I walked in (on a Friday) and was seated within 10 minutes. No appointments required. I had a deluxe GEL pedicure, as the sign didn’t differentiate between the regular GEL other than the price of $50/$60. The deluxe had warm towels, sugar scrub, lotion and hot stone calf massage. I’ll pass on the deluxe in the future. I was please with the results of my GEL pedicure”

    “I cannot say enough amazing things about my experience with Tina at Tip N Toe Nail Salon. Earlier this afternoon, I had gone to Tiare Nail Salon and had an awful experience. I was there for almost 2 hours asking for a simple milky white …”

    “I experienced a horrible experience. The first time I went I got beautiful nails I was charged $60. The second time I went the same design slightly different colors and she wanted to charge me $65. So I ended up asking just for the basic fill and I asked for a little accent. I was going to a baby shower and I was so happy with the nails that she had done the first time. She charges me $55 for this. Extremely disappointing. I was hoping to add pictures.”

    “Do not recommend. The lady told me "shewouldn't wrap my nails because she's never heard of acetone hurting anyone's skin. It didn't hurt her skin and she's been doing it for decades." My nails are all different shapes and lengths. My middle …”

    “I arrived at the salon for a french manicure. They told me it was walk in only. The salon was very busy that day. The nail techs were working on 3 clients at a time. After about a 45 minute wait, I finally got my manicure. That lasted about 4 days and 3 nails began to chip. They were shellacked but they should have lasted me at least 2 weeks if not longer. This is what happens when you go to a salon that is servicing more then 1 client at a time. They were in a rush and it shows on my nails. Just look at those cuticles! See pictures attached. I will not be going back to them again for this reason. I do not recommend them at all. Very disappointed for $60. This is the 2nd time that my nails chipped after going there.”
