Was in town visiting and tried this place. The lady tried hard to up sell me on services, which was frustrating. I brought my 3 year old with me and she was pretty well behaved but still had trouble sitting for so long, everyone in the nail salon was so patient, and treated her very well. I got my brows and lip waxed and a french gel manicure. My eyebrows looked the best they ever have. She worked super hard on my nails, very detailed. It only cost me around $50, I had expected much more. Anyways, it is two weeks later and my nails are still perfect, washing dishes, cleaning the house, went swimming three times, giving my daughter baths, Packing Boxes to move, and my nails are still perfect. I've never had such a good gel manicure.
I've finally found a nail place I can call home. The atmosphere is calm, and Annie is AMAZING!!!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍
Tina is the Best!!! I Love the salon, it is very clean and bright. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. I come all the way from Greenbelt, MD to get my nails done.

I love it here. I live in Hagerstown, MD over an hour away, but I come to this salon because it is great. The staff is professional, the establishment is clean and beautiful. KATHY is phenomenal, I am very very very picky about who I let wax me and who I TRUST to wax me. KATHY not professional but she's always kind. Always offer additional services without being rude or implying you need something else waxed. She is fast but she is still detail oriented and thorough. KATHY is the reason I give this place 5 stars. I truly recommend it and KATHY with her amazing waxing skills.

I love Tina !!!! She does so good with my nails and eyebrows !!!! Highly recommend this place !!!!
Lisa is awesome! I'm from the Pittsburgh area and decided to stop in to Sterling Nails & Beauty while I was in town. This salon is so clean and beautiful and every staff member is polite and welcoming. Lisa did my nails and they have never looked better. I can't wait to stop in again when I'm back in town. Thank you, Lisa!!!!
This place is the best. My nails never chip, crack or break. Very clean and great staff.
I love this place. Lee is the best! The newly remodeled salon is gorgeous and clean.
My sisters and I have been seeing Annie for years! She is amazing at what she does - we don't trust anyone else with our eyebrow waxing.
5 stars every time. It's a beautiful salon - clean, cushy chairs, big nail color selection.

Lee was great. I came in shortly before they closed but everyone was really nice and I didn't feel rushed. My gel manicure was done meticulously and they came out looking perfect. Thank you so much!

This place is wonderful, the people are so friendly and kind! They make you feel so welcomed in there establishment. I've been to many nail salons in the area and I've been pretty disappointed till I came here. I think I found my new home and I'm willing to make the drive from Ashburn to Sterling cause I like them so much! Definitely a great place, Lisa and Danny are amazing!!

Best nail salon in the area!! The service is impeccable, the salon is very well maintained and clean and the level of professionalism from the staff is beyond amazing! The added bonus is the beautiful music, serenity at its finest. Oh and the compliments I've received on my nails, I'll definitely be back!

Sterling Nails and Beauty is Amazing. The staff is friendly, its clean and they do a great job. I personally see Annie when I go and she is amazing. I have problems with my nails and they lift very easily, but she knows what to do and keeps them on long. I never have issues. I have also been going to Annie for about 15 years, I follow her wherever he goes. I really recommend you check out this Salon.

Under new management! Brand new renovation.
This place is a 180 from where it was the first time I walked in. Everything from floor to ceiling is brand new! Annie is who I see and she is very skilled especially at pink & whites. There is plenty of staff to go around, as each time I come in they are busy busy. I love that the new pedicure sink bowls have a plastic cover so that your feet are the only ones that contact the bowl! Great sanitation that I have never seen anywhere else. Great location, in the same shopping center as Lane Bryant and Carter's.

I love this place. When I think about how eventually I am going to move from Sterling, my first thought is loosing my go-to nail place (sad face). It is now under new management and has had a modernized and clean interior remodel as of a month ago? Bring cash for tips but the ATM does not charge a fee anyways. I go for Le- the others seem great too though! I have known her for more than 3 years now from her old place. She is the sweetest little lady I know! She has done a great job, with attention to detail, since day one. She texts me to remind me when to come in and remembers my birthday! She does not up-sell and gives great massages. I think she is very popular, so call for an appointment! AND tip more than 20%. Le works very hard.

Since my pedicurist Le moved here a year ago, I always go here because of her. She takes her time and gives you a good massage. Also, she is not like the others that will up-sell you anything. She does my nails and eyebrows and shes' one of a kind. Ask for Le ( the new Le, because there is another Le). My whole family goes here.

I have been going to Sterling Nails for years and love this place! I get gel manicures and they have a great selection of gel colors. I always make an appointment with Mimi because she is the best!

I'm a novice when it comes to mani/pedis, but desperately needed to get one prior to a photo shoot in mid-September. My manager's kind of a high roller, so when she suggested this place, I was worried it would be expensive...well, it really wasn't!
For $55, I got:
1) Gel manicure - which i highly recommend! I'm going on week 4 and the polish hasn't budged (although you can see the nail growth at the bottom)
2) Pedicure with sea salt scrub - nothing fancy, but I got to sit in a massage chair while everything was done
Kim was great, and didn't try to up-sell me like some other places have done to me before.
The only downside was that the tip had to be paid in cash, and couldn't be put on the card.

After a very long search for new nail salon I came across this salon in Sterling. I love this salon. Must stylist took her time and did a great job. I am a fan of Sterling Nail & Beauty Salon. The price was reasonable compared to other salons. My cuticles and the shape of my nails are perfect. My sister from Virginia Beach and I now have a new nail salon.

I have been going to Sterling Nails for 11 years. I have tried a couple of other places in that time frame and I will say, I will NEVER go anywhere other than Sterling Nails!! They are the best. Lisa, Lee, and Tina, you are all awesome!! Keep up the great work. I get compliments, all the time, on my nails. Even guys compliment them.

OMG this place is the best! They have a secret weapon, her name is MiMi! Make sure you request her for mani/pedi or especially waxing. She's a true artist. Their manicures are seriously high quality and the ladies who work there are all very sweet. As you know, many nail salons in NOVA can have a bitchy vibe; not this place!

Great place, I will only go here now after a bad experience in Leesburg. The ladies are polite and clean. Very meticulous with their work and very pleasant to speak to!

I moved to the area a year ago & happened upon this place. I love it! I've only gotten pedis (I'm not into manis) and have never been disappointed. They do ask about up sales but its no pressure, I'm only asked once. The massage chairs are good (although only the auto options seem to work). Tip does need to be paid in cash.

Although it is not the fanciest of places, they are clean and professional. Went in for a mani & pedi and the technician was very meticulous about doing the job right, which I appreciated. I have been to numerous nail salons and this place is both affordable and they do a good job.

Lee was great with my pedi, pleasant to chat with and, although she asked if I was interested in other services, she was not pushy. The place is clean & reasonably priced. I'll go back.

Getting my nails done during work never felt so good. I won't disclose the details of my employment at the time that I frequented Sterling Nails, as not to destroy my relationship with the employer, but let's just say, the temptation to leave and go to Sterling Nails rather than work was quite over powering.
Usually when I frequent a new nail salon, I feel a bit of tension from the manicurists who don't know me, don't know if I'm going to tip, or if I'll like their work. I felt none of this tension when I walked into Sterling Nails.
The manicurists were quick to great me, and ask what sort of services I wanted. I got acrylic tips with a french manicure. She was extremely gentle, and made sure that they were just the shape and length that I wanted.
While I was getting my nails done, another manicurist approached me and told me that I had beautiful eyes and she loved my eye make up. Five minutes later, yet another manicurist approached me and told me she loved my skin tone. French manicure + never ending compliments .... How can that be bad?
My tips lasted 2 weeks without needing a fill, with which how much I use my hands, is amazing for me. Definitely somewhere I would frequent more if I lived closer :)

I stopped by Sterling Nails & Beauty late Sunday, about 15 minutes before they closed to get a pedicure. Even though they were ready to go home, they stayed to do my pedicure, didn't rush me, and were so friendly! And, the pedicure was a good price, $27. The girl's name was Kim and she did a knock out job. Very friendly, tons of compliments (which always make a girl feel good), and top notch service! I totally recommend them!
