I am new to the Charlotte area and faced with the task of finding a nail salon and technician in my…read morenew hometown that did a natural nail using builder gel. Previously, I'd been with my technician for 20+ years. I was referred to Vintage Nail Bar in Charlotte. Even though there were many salons closer to my new home, I went to see Steven based on this recommendation. I was not disappointed! He was so nice, friendly, and on time for my appointment. The salon was spacious and clean. My husband had a pedi with Vin and said he was great, too. There was another technician there, Pim, who seemed so kind - always smiling at incoming customers. I understand she does a great job with builder gel and will try her, too, in case Steven isn't available. For reference I am over 60 years young () and wanted a natural looking nail, thin on the sides and top. I'm so happy to have found this nail salon!

This was my first time in for a mani/ pedi. I asked for regular nail polish, but a lot of people…read morewere getting gel. The salon was super clean. Kelly was my technician and she did a fantastic job. She was meticulous in the preparation of my nails for polish. She gave a very relaxing foot and lower leg massage, as well. Her polish application was perfect and she gave each coat time to dry. The result was a mani/ pedi that should last for a long time. It's already been three days with a lot of gardening and dish washing, and my hands still look perfect. Usually several nails would be showing signs of wear by now. I'm super happy and will definitely be back soon. I may have found my new "go-to" nail salon. Note: the place was busy on this Thursday afternoon. I'm glad I had an appointment.

I normally never write negative reviews but I'm so disappointed in Apple! I've been going there for…read moreyears and have always requested one technician but thought I'd just walk in today. I had Tammy and had the worst nail experience I've ever had and I've had my nails done a lot. I asked to fix a "bubbly" nail at the end and she told me I moved my hand, which I didn't and then told one of the other technicians in Vietnamese and then pointed at me and laughed at me. I also work in healthcare as a Nurse Practitioner and am not allowed to have long nails and she kept telling me my nails were too short and "next time come with long nails". She was incredibly rude and disrespectful. I have loved this place for years but had an awful experience with Tammy!

At times, the attitudes can feel a bit harsh, but the owners are very sweet and professional. Just keep in mind that they do not take walk-ins close to closing, even for simple services, so it's best to plan ahead. Overall, it's a good nail salon in the area, and I love that they offer drinks like wine, soda, or water during your service.

I recently had my first experience at Alo Nail Salon, and while it was generally positive, there…read morewere a few bumps along the way. I went in with my 5-year-old daughter, three teenage sisters, and my stepmom to celebrate my birthday with manicures and pedicures. I called ahead to book the appointment, and Mimi was fantastic in organizing everything to ensure we were all set. Upon arrival, I was immediately impressed by how clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed the salon was. The staff wore matching uniforms, the towels were embroidered with the business name, choice of vitamin-infused salt bath for your pedicure, and there was even a mini bar set up for special events. We were given choices of water, tea, coffee, juice, wine or champagne (I ordered a mimosa of course!). It was clear they take great pride in their space and service. However, there were some issues that affected our experience. My daughter's manicure and pedicure started to disintegrate after just two days, which was disappointing. I took her back to have it redone, and while the staff was accommodating, it was still a hassle. My shellac manicure, which I've had done many times without issue, also started lifting and chipping after just one week, which was unusual for me since I'm used to it lasting 3-4 weeks with no problems. What really added to the frustration was the delay in my stepmom's service. She had trouble with her technician, who wasn't familiar with shellac, and after everyone else was finished, we had to wait for someone else to redo hers. This pushed us over an hour late for our birthday lunch in Uptown and set off a domino effect, causing us to be late for the rest of our planned events. The service was great, the salon's cleanliness and atmosphere were top-notch, and the staff was friendly and professional despite these setbacks. I'm willing to give Alo Nail Salon another shot as it may have just been an off day, especially knowing I've had shellac manicures last for weeks in the past and not to assume 2 hours would be enough for a mani/pedi. I'd recommend it with a bit more caution and extra communication next time--especially if you have a hard stop for time-sensitive plans.

I removed my polish before going seeing from multiple sources that the business was open on Sunday, 12/7/25. Not only did I waste my time & gas, I've never received a returned call or any communication to date. Clearly, the business was closed when I arrived. There was another business in a nearby suite that was opened once I made my way to Digits and Spikes' suite. To say I'm disappointed is understatement.

I'm pretty sure i've had every team member for my service and every single time, it is perfect. I have had fragile nails my whole life. Normal and gel polish come clean off my nails. Acrylics always break and damage my nails even more. Since starting BIAB with my girls, my nails are so much stronger and healthier. Their range of talent, colors, and service is the best i've ever received. The small space with appointments only is so personable. I hate going to a salon that feels like a factory; one in, one out, with questionable attention to detail. Always the opposite here. Snacks, coffee, water, good vibes, and comfy chairs is the cherry on top. I live in Dilworth and gladly battle the traffic for the best mani ever!
