Best Nail Art and Nail Designs near me in Downtown Seattle, Seattle

This was my first time to Ascend Nail Lounge. I just moved back to Seattle in April from Los Angeles after 14 years of being gone. I’ve been on the hunt for “the” place to get my pedicure.and I think I have found it here! Summer was fantastic. My pedicure felt so good. She was nice and professional, and I would definitely recommend her!

I come here every time I visit Seattle. I usually have an exceptional experience. The person who executed my service today seemed annoyed when I asked her to cut my toe nails shorter and was a little rough in pushing down my toes. Toes look great - but I would not want her again for service

Best nail salon in Seattle. Every tech does a fantastic job, it’s incredibly clean & such a beautiful space. I refuse to go anywhere else. Parking is usually pretty easy to find as well. Can’t recommend enough

I had recently moved to the Seattle area and had been trying for months to find a nail salon that worked for me. I decided to try out Ascend... Best manicure and pedicure EVER. The place was clean and decorated beautifully. Everyone was so nice and attentive and they worked on my pedicure and manicure AT THE SAME TIME. My sister and I were out in less than 90 minutes with perfection. I only remember my manicurist's name (Julia) but they were ALL great. Please, please try them out. They were fantastic. They deserve every 5 start review. Definitely my new go-to nail salon.

The salon was extremely clean, and the atmosphere was very relaxing. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. Tia did my mani/pedi. I purchased the Ascend mani/pedi package. She was thorough and also very friendly, but not overly talkative, so I was still able to relax. I'm a travel nurse from SC, but as long as I'm in Seattle, I will be coming here. I actually booked an appointment for tomorrow for eyelash extensions. Can't wait!!!

Our technicians (Helen and Mimi) were AMAZING! Excellent customer service, wonderful communication skills, and the front desk (Jenny) made us feel so special. Words can't express our appreciation. We highly recommend Ascend. Best services ever! A true gem of Seattle!

Very clean and welcoming environment. All of the nail techs are very kind and care about the quality of their work. This is my #1 choice for a gel manicure in Seattle. Definitely schedule ahead of time though because they are usually booked for day-of appointments.

Great experience with Emily. She executed the nail art perfectly. Happier with this set than I've been with any set from any other salon!

Mimi took extra care to make sure my previous gel was fully removed and then was great to collaborate with on a fun holiday nail design. I’m thrilled with my manicure!

All the women that work at this nail spa are true talented nail artists. I enjoy my experience here every time due to the serene atmosphere and the kindness at the front door from Jenny and Irene. They provide pristine pedicures and immaculate manicures; sometimes, a touch of nail art by Emily and the care of Kim is the cure to a rainy day.
