Splash Nail Bar is a busy nail salon nestled in the heart of Mountlake Terrace, offering a solid choice for those looking to refresh or elevate their nail care routine. The space leans towards a clean but somewhat cozy setup, which can feel a bit tight during peak hours — a reminder that the spot is popular with locals who value skilled nail technicians over sprawling luxury.

This is a place where detail matters. Whether you're booking a basic manicure or going all out with acrylic nails and intricate nail art, the team takes care to deliver exactly what you imagine. The nail artists, including standout names like Lily and Tran, draw on their experience to patiently guide first-timers and nail art enthusiasts alike. Designs, even complex ones involving dip powders, gel work, and rhinestones, are handled with precision, making it a dependable choice for special occasions or simply well-maintained nails that can last for weeks.

Splash Nail Bar seems especially well-suited for those who appreciate consistency and skilled craftsmanship. The salon’s ability to keep nails looking fresh for extended periods speaks to the quality of their work. Visitors who don’t mind a bit of bustle and a compact layout will find the atmosphere here practical rather than spa-like, focusing on results more than lounging.

The staff turnover is noticeable to some regulars, but the emphasis on accommodating customers and maintaining a clean environment continually draws a steady stream of repeat clients, including families and groups of friends. If you prefer a certain technician, booking ahead might be wise, especially on weekends or during busier seasons when the salon fills up.

For locals in Mountlake Terrace and nearby neighborhoods, Splash Nail Bar offers a reliable spot to unwind with some self-care, whether as a regular midweek refresh or a treat before events. It tends to be busiest in the afternoons and early evenings, so earlier appointments could offer a quieter, more relaxed experience.

absolutely excellent service and highly skilled nail technicians. the interior is clean, but a little crowded. the first manicure i got from splash lasted more than two months and was barely chipped by the time they were too long and i wanted to change it up. lily did a fantastic job with the pictured design, which was about $125 (dip for the ombre, gel for the design, plus the rhinestones)

I love this place, I have been going here for about 5 years! I have brought my friends and family on different occasions and they all seem to love them! They are clean and very accommodating. I usually like to see Lily but I don't "have" too so there have been tons of times I get different people. They really take their time with perfecting things. They are busy but have a lot of people working usually so if you have to wait it isn't for very long. Not to mention their work is worth the wait.

They did a very nice job here. This was my first time getting acrylics, and they were patient and answered my questions. Tran did my nails, and she was very professional and made sure that I was happy with the outcome. A little pricey, but for me it was worth it. The first picture was the inspiration, and the second is the outcome.

Got my first Acrylic. Showed a picture of the design and she got it perfect! I think her name was Trin. 100% going back!!!! Fantastic job.

I have been coming to Splash for a very long time. Since before Stephanie bought the business. I have gotten to know many of the staff as there is turnover every so often, just like most jobs. I’ve read through many of the reviews, and wanted to share my experience and some tips. As a fellow business owner, I can also relate to the stress of staffing, when certain times are really slow and others are very busy. I have seen both just in this year. I definitely recommend an appointment even if you call that day, which I usually do. Then they can let you know when it will be a good time to go in. However, they are also very accommodating for walk-ins. I felt safe to come during covid given their precautions even with a medically challenged child. And I have never gotten an infection in all my years of mani pedis. They were one of the first to add to dip in the area. And they have a ton of color choices. Every once in a while, I go to a different salon due to travel or to a friend inviting me to go with them, and I always find that I prefer Splash. I believe they are absolutely worth a try.

My nail place. I've tried other places but this place by far is the best. The staff is very friendly and always makes sure I feel good about my service. Perfect for mother/daughter days, my girls absolutely love going here for manis and pedis

I am always so happy with the service at Splash Nail Bar. The staff are friendly and talented. Thuy did an amazing job on my acrylic nails yesterday! I also have had several pedicures here and they always do a great job. The peppermint pedicure is so refreshing!!
