Somedays you just want to walk out of your nail place and never come back, it was the case for me about a year ago with Fidalgo Nails.
However the quality and beauty that Fidalgo/Anacortes nails provides me has proven to be the best in quality I have found.
I hike, work in my yard, wash dishes by hand, Kayak, river raft, cut wood, I load stuff off and on boats all the time and I have not lost a nail nor has the appearance of my nails diminished.
I may have to wait longer than I like, I enjoy the company of the other ladies who come into the shop. Breathe and enjoy my time.
All around it's a great place.
Its interesting we all want great nails, but some of us wait for the last minute and expect the nails ladies to be waiting for us to walk in the door, and that isn't the case at Fidalgo Nails because they are good at what they do they have lots of ladies and gentlemen who enjoy the service they receive and it just gets busy.
So take a book or wait to catch up on social media before you get to the nail place you might have a wait.
I won't be going any other place, not to say others aren't good because I have found another I do like but Fidalgo Nails is my favorite.
The pictures posted are of my toes & nails after 1.5 weeks - kayaking and camping out doors and they still looked great.

This place has been an awesome find for me, since moving to San Juan Island in March.
The staff is very good at accommodating and accomplishing my needs due to the ferry schedule.

I called at 12:45pm and came in for a shellac mani/pedi at last minute and they had alot of extra staff and openings. The pedicure turned out great, except the French tip looks like my 8 year old daughter did it, otherwise it was a great pedicure. My manicure on the other hand... I let them know I had shellac on my fingers and I was in a time crunch and they told me they had time, apparently they had forgotten about their 6 other appointments they had that hour, before they told me they had enough time to do my nails. I sat in the pedicure chair waiting to start my manicure for about 20 minutes before I had to tell them I need to soak off my shellac because I needed to be at a wedding very soon. They got kinda snippy with me and I felt like like they were talking bad about me in their native tongue, and that, i thought was very unprofessional. I finally got to start my manicure and they power drilled off the top coat all over my lap and my wallet, did not put any sort of towel down or anything, then the nail tech who was cleaning my cuticles, had nails so long and pointy every time she turned my fingers to get a good angle, I got stabbed by her nails and caused me to bleed. I finally said I need to hurry , because at this time it was 30 minutes until the wedding.. (1:55!!!!) So its already taken over an hour to do a pedicure and start to clean my cuticles. I got the French tip on my nails, but again, it looks like my 8 year old did it! I did not receive any type of hand massage or scrub or anything except only my nails got polished. I am very unhappy with how my nails turned out. I will never be going back there, and thats too bad because as friendly as they were, very low expertise on their field of training. By the way, i was out of there and done with my mani/pedi at 2:25 and just barely missed the wedding by about 3 minutes. (These pictures are literally 4 days after I got them done)

My partner and I made a last minute stop here before catching the ferry. Two spa pedicures done well and they made sure we got done in time so we didn't miss our ride.
