Raw Lab Spa

Convenient location, similar pricing to other salons however be prepared to be crammed into the tinest nail shop you've ever been in. I don't think the room was even as big as a bedroom. Secondly, I got a gel manicure and standard pedicure. Pedicure was lovely. Gel manicure was fine as well however chipped within 1 day. I don't really have time to go back and forth to the nail salon so I just lived with it but then the rest of my nails peeled within 7 days. The gel used was "WaveGel" which clearly is subpar to OPI or DND or Gelish because I've never had a gel manicure chip this fast. Additionally

Just moved to the neighborhood- and went to this nail salon 3 times for a gel manicure - only 1 of the 3 appointments were performed on time (2nd time I actually was asked ro leave a s come back later) - and today, my appt was at 1:45 and by 2:25, I'd not been seen yet so decided just to leave. I won't be back, as I don't have time to be sitting around for 45 mins watching other people get their nails done. Lots of other choices in the neighborhood and although they seem like nice people, they have no time management skills.

Unfortunately I had to settle for less because my nail tech didn't know how to do nail art/ designs... Normally they're very good and I love the quality of their dip powder but I left a bit disappointed I couldn't get what I wanted.

I went here on my mothers birthday who had just passed in may. I'd been having a terrible day wanted to treat myself. So I usually just get a pedicure with no color and call it a day. We're getting all finished up and the lady goes why not get a color to match my green crocs. I've been obsessed with these crocs since the day i bought em. It made me so happy i decided to do it as a joke to surprise my girlfriend and we got such a great laugh out of it. The other two girls in the store said wow i actually want that color after seeing me have it. Awesome to have a bad day turned into a good one .

I don’t get regular mani pedis but the few I’ve had turned out better than this. The colors don’t match after being told the sample nail will match exactly. He painted my toes entirely without noticing I picked a much lighter color so he did them again. I had cotton pieces all under my toes and fingers and the paint job was splotchy and on my hands and feet! I told the guy I didn’t want to thin or damage my nail bed and he took out a grinder and totally roughed up my whole cuticle situation saying it was a light sanding. He didn’t even soak my fingers or push back or trim my cuticles

I love this place. I’ve gone 2 times now and had 2 different nail techs and they were both amazing. So friendly, so kind, and really care about having you leave with perfect nails. Never going anywhere else!

I had a Creme Brulee pedi with Ann today and loved it! I used ClassPass credits and still got topnotch treatment. The scrubs and essential oils smell amazing and they use hot stones also. It was such a relaxing experience. I am on my feet for 10 hours at work and this definitely helped. I really enjoyed their massage chair, sometimes they are too intense but this one was just right. I walked right past it the first time because I didn't see a sign but it's the little white door next to Bleu Sushi. I am a person who never gets manis or pedis but this experience has probably changed my mind- I might

I don't know why this place has such high ratings... I went and the place is SMALL and at capacity the entire time (2 stressed out staff, 4 customers at all times). Even with an appointment, expect to wait at least 30 minutes for them to start your services, and don't expect them to have time to do everything you booked the appointment for. Both me and a friend booked a mani pedi but there were so many customers and overlapping appointments, my friend didn't even get to have a pedicure. Also, there was a customer who did not wear her mask for the entire time she was there and the staff did not

I love this place! Best natural nail salon in Philly. If you are growing out your natural nails, and want to go to a place that will respect them and help them thrive, this is it!! No harsh chemicals, large range of colors, very talented/professional staff. They specialize in natural dip powder, but they also offer a range of non toxic nail polish. Intimate space, appointment only, and always very clean. If you love strong, long, NATURAL nails like I do, then you have to try this place!!! ( pictures are of 2 1/2 weeks in!! Still going strong!!)

Ann did my nails with dip. She was meticulous and explained the whole process to me as this was my first time getting dip. She did a fantastic job and the manicure lasted through putting on four commencement ceremonies in a row (this is crazy to me considering how much I used my hands).
