    Allure is very close to my house, so I was hoping it would be my go-to spot. This visit was a much needed self-care Mother's Day gift to myself (a fill and pedicure), and I was looking forward to a relaxing pampered experience. The manager's greeting was friendly and welcoming. As I sat down, she explained they'd do both services at once. I was ok with that. I wanted dark blue or gray cat-eye with blue tinted chrome on top. She said they could do that. They brought 2 trays of regular polish and 4 trays of cat-eye choices. The manager told me to take my time. I was happy to be there. After about 10 seconds the 2 nail ladies came and asked me what color I wanted. I took another 5 seconds to decide my toe color for the pedicurist. I hadn't had time to look at the cat-eye choices, when the nail tech, Tammy, asked what I want. I told her I need a second to look at the choices. She said to "go ahead and look but I'm going to start your nails", and she took my hand to start removing my old gel polish with the Dremel. It was very difficult to look through all trays piled in my lap with one hand, and I thought it was rude not to allow me at least 60 seconds to properly browse. They didn't have what I wanted, so I needed a minute to decide on what to settle for. I picked something satisfactory, but was feeling turned off by being rushed. She was rushing with the Dremel too and cut the edge and side of my finger- which hurt, even though it was minor. She apologized, sprayed something on it that stung slightly (alcohol? water?) and walked off. As I waited, my cut bled and was going to drip, so I asked the pedicurist if she had something to take care of it. She said the nail lady would do it. Tammy came with a tissue, began to put liquid from a green bottle on my bleeding finger without explaining what it is or asking if I was ok with it. I had to ask, and they said it was a sanitizer. At this point my happy, pampered expectations were blown. I was in pain and will have to deal with hangnails and the ugliness of the cut. I felt disrespected, rushed. That preoccupation clouded my focus on the pedicure. I couldn't enjoy that because I was internally upset and just looking forward leaving. Tammy could see I wasn't happy and made small talk. I really didn't feel like conversating in my frustrated state, but I obliged. I asked to view the chrome colors and the pedicurist said Tammy chose one that matches my polish. I would've preferred to see options, but I was ok with what she selected. I was happy with the turnout of nails and toes. When finished, Tammy asked me if I wanted paraffin wax. I thought it was a gift offer to make up for cutting me and to improve my satisfaction- which would have been appropriate, however she said it would be $5 extra. I passed. I asked if I could wash the chrome glitter from my hands, but instead she got a warm washcloth to wipe most of it off and then applied oil and turned the massage chair back on for me. She said I can sit an relax-which I appreciated because I was feeling tense by all the mistreatment and my toes still needed to dry. By this time, the place had several empty chairs- so I didn't need to rush... But LITERALLY, they came back after LESS than 2 minutes and asked if I was ready to leave yet! I asked if my toes were dry enough yet, and the pedicurist said, since she put 4 coats of polish, I should be careful for the next 30 minutes. I was so offended to be rushed out, but it was definitely time to get out of there! I explained my dissatisfaction to the manager. She took $5 off for polish removal. I should have insisted on more time to view polish choices, and should have requested for Tammy to slow down and take more care with the Dremel- because I deserve that. The problem isn't being cut- mistakes happen and it was minor. The problem is the reason it happened- it could have been prevented if they cared. Not caring is what changed my whole experience- even before she started on my nails. Customer service is important. I won't be back.

    Allure nails went above and beyond for my granddaughters dream nails. It really is a work of art.

    Thank you so much for making our birthday girls dream come true. A work of art. Everyone here is so talented and friendly.

    OMG Kelly... and Kay are the best if ur a bit on the high maintenance side. Kelly did my nails and I have to say she "nails" it every time. Every holiday is a new design. She will do it all.

    I came in for a full set a few weeks ago and a gentleman did my nails. I showed him a photo of what I wanted - red glazed with chrome. He proceeded to file my nails and cut my cuticles pretty badly twice - one finger was bleeding pretty badly and when I was looking directly at it...he patted my finger and placed his finger up to his lips to say "shhhh". Like no, it hurts. At the end, my manicure was poorly done. The chrome was gold which made my nails look more orange. The main issue was all the bumps on my nails! It wasn't smooth AT ALL. Not a single nail was smooth. I didn't have time to complain and have them fix. So I called and spoke to the owner who said I could come in the next day and get them fixed. Kay apologized and fixed them for me. She did everything I asked. We changed the color and chrome, she tried to file the thickness down...I know she was really trying her best, which I appreciate. Not many businesses will offer to rectify the situation without being defensive, so I appreciated Kay's offer. It was nice to not hear her speak to anyone while she was working on my nails too - so I atleast know she wasn't talking about me in front of me. Lol I walked out with better looking pink chrome nails but again, with a chunk of my cuticle cut off and bleeding...my nails were still pretty thick too. I'm sure if she had done them herself to begin with, they would've been beautiful but because she was fixing someone else's work she had to work with what she had...which was a mess. I really appreciate Kay for taking an hour and half of her time to fix my manicure. She also apologized for wasting my time the day before. I think that's great business management and I would return again, but probably not for a manicure. Lol

    I have been coming in to see Kelli for a couple years now she is amazing at what she does! She not only does a great job, but isn't awesome person just in general. Everyone is super friendly. The salon is very clean up-to-date modern they are fast and efficient.

    I love going to my nail lady Kelly . She is the absolute best , sweetest and amazing at what she does. I trust her 100% with all her services she provides for me & knows exactly what I am looking for &style. She truly takes her times , never rushes , takes my visions of what I'm looking for my nails & makes them come to live with every detail. Simply the best!!

    My first and last time here. At first I was going to do just a gel manicure with a lady i then tell her I want a full set she send me to the desk with the guy instead, as I get up and leave she says wait and THROWS the towel at me with a lot of aggression and says take towel. Even the lady next to me who was getting her nails done was shocked. The man who did my nails was kind but the shape is terrible, they are very chunky and have no carving. I asked for almond off white nails.

    Fancy nails

    I love Allure Nail. I have been going here for a long time. They are so friendly, kind funny. They are my forever spot to go to to get my nails done. I want to say thank you to Kay, Kelly and Linda. You guys always make me look sexy. Today I seen Kelly for my nails and Linda for my toes. So fancy. I really recommend them.

    Worse place to get any kind of nails. Once you complain they keep going. I got dip nails, I told the man that it looks like the color will be sheer and he kept saying the color is still wet and wait. It was all set and the end I was right. He has to put another couple coats of a different color. He didn't listen to me and thought he knew better. I've done dip nails for month, I understand he's supposed to be the professional but he didn't know what he was doing. My nails came out thick as ever. Another nail tech came and looked at my nails and said that once the top coat is on then "it'll look beautiful." It didn't. The man said that my nail was lopsided and I was like I've been to many nail salons and I you're the first to tell me that. Stay away from the place! Stay away the only man there. If you want your nails to pretty, go to someone else.

    I absolutely love this set, it looks even better than the photo.

    i love love love love this place. They are so sweet and never get upset at you. They're all super nice and funny and you can tell they do their best to make sure you like the nails. Another thing I like is how kind they are to everyone and I find that the most important because they really just want YOU to be happy with your set and it makes me feel safe to speak my mind about wether or not the set looks okay and she always says thank you when I correct her.

    I absolutely love this nail place! They are so nice and make you feel super comfortable. I'm very picky on my nails and anytime I ask them to fix something they do it without getting annoyed or complaining! The owner is so sweet and wants everyone to feel welcomed. She is really good at nails and I love mine.

    My favorite nail shop in Elk Grove…read more I'm here at least 1-2x a month for manicures and pedicures. I typically get hard gel and a spa pedicure. The spa pedicure includes the paraffin- which is a must for me. Every person that has done my nails have been incredible beyond words. What I really appreciate? They're probably the best prices Elk Grove has to offer for the quality you get. Making an appointment is easy- I always call about 30-60 mins before I arrive and rarely had an issue. Parking is nice and I love stopping by the Nugget after for a quick lunch. I will say, my only negative is that I wish I was consistently offered something to drink. Sometimes, it's not offered. For me, my pedicure and manicure experience includes mimosas. It's my monthly treat and I'm not brave enough to ask for it unless they're taking a drink order. Some of the artists are reallllllly great about asking and some don't. It's not a deal breaker for me though.

    I think, like any nail shop, it can be hit or miss if you're not familiar with who does good work…read more I came here when they first opened and had an okay experience. My nails and feet were done pretty well, but they do seem to push Gel X and gel services even if that's not necessarily what you went in for. My most recent visit has me thinking about trying other nail shops. My bill was around $300 for myself and my daughter, and unfortunately, I didn't feel like we received $300 worth of services. We made appointments but when we arrived still waited about 10 minutes. The lady who did my pedicure, Linda, was very nice and sweet, but I was disappointed with the service, especially for a $77 pedicure. She completely skipped the massage on my right leg, barely scrubbed my feet for a couple of minutes, and didn't really push back or clean up my cuticles. My feet still felt rough afterward, and the polish was left far from my cuticles. They honestly looked like they had been done weeks ago, even though the picture was taken the same day. The steamer was also mostly pointed away from my legs or toward her, so I barely felt it. The guy who did my nails, Liam, actually did a pretty good job. He took his time and was very thorough, so I was happy with my nails. Unfortunately, my daughter's experience was not as good. The design and color were not what she asked for. She wanted black, but they came out looking brown because only one coat was applied over a brown color. She was also talked into getting Gel X when a powder ombré would have been closer to what she originally wanted. Overall, I think there are some good technicians here, but it really depends on who you get. For what we paid, I expected a much better overall experience, so we'll probably be trying some other nail shops next time.
