Last weekend - my manicure didn't even last a week!!! Asked for gel manicure, it's looked like my 5year old granddaughter did it, it has been hot or miss here I have not been in over a year and now I remember why! Going downhill quickly all they talked about previous when I came was their house they were building, now they have new people who I don't event know if they are licensed- the guy cut me, filed my finger tip not once but 3 times - I'm don't won't be back read more

First of all it's dirty and they have you to put your nails in this remover that is obvious that many people before me have. Very unsanitary. Then the tech shredded my nails to remove the previous SNS so now my nails are weak as f. Lastly she insisted I wash my hands and her fingers were disgustingly filthy. read more

Not the best quality. They are very kinda but lack quality while still paying $100+. Pedicures and acrylic sets are rushed.

I had my nail done by an older gentleman and he cut me with the nail clipper. All he said it ok not bleeding too much. He also had his mother-in-law working there and she filed my friend's nail bed to the skin so badly that she just got up and left Never would go back. And they reuse their equipment and do not sterilize it.. read more

This place is hit or miss. I originally thought this would be my go to place. I moved here from out of state and have had a REALLY hard time finding a good consistent nail salon. I went in here four times. Twice I had my nails done by a Middle Aged man with longer hair. I want to say he is the owners husband, but I'm not sure. He was awesome. No complaints there. I then had a women do my nails and her drill was garbage, she shaped my nails poorly. I still went in again, in hopes to have a better outcome. The last time I went I had an older thin man do my nails, and he rushed them. The shape wasn't right, people came in and he immediately started rushing my gel paint. I did call the next day (after thinking about it for 24 hours) and they offered to fix for free no issue, but I didn't go back. I also want to say that if you post your prices in your business, then that should be the price. If every tech has their own price....dint post prices. read more

Walked in and was treated with total kindness. I'd never been and I showed up with no appt. I live in Fuquay and don't care for the salons I've been to here, but going to Cindy's Nails was a great decision. They were busy! Tony added a full set, gel polish, and a pedicure. He was skilled and gentle. People complain about the lack of chatter, but I'm not a fan of small talk. We talked very little which I'm fine with. He was just doing his job. I'll be back with an appt read more

I am from out of town and took time away from family to get nails done and look what happened! The man was rude and did a piss poor job! He didn't do anything that you normally get with the service I chose. Do not go there! read more

My nails looks awful and I paid over $100 just to go somewhere else to reshape my nails. Never again will I visit this place

I'm so disappointed, this place is so hit or miss. Went in for fill in and the man who did my nails filed into my nail beds more than once and didn't paint my entire nail on any of my ten fingers. I asked for almond tips and he started the curve half of the way threw my nail bed. read more

I asked for black tips and for whatever this is... I asked him to take him off or I'm not paying and he said he couldn't do nothing about it. The shape was so weird and he was rushing the whole time. Never ever going back. read more

Cindy's Nails - Worst nails ever - Nail Salons Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

See all

I have tried them twice and I get the dip and both times the dip came off within 4 to 5 days. I call and come in we will fix no problem. I have had to paid both times. If you can't do dip nails tell the consumer up front so they don't get robbed. I star and you don't deserve that. Just have the balls to tell the customer upfront that you can't do the job so they can go elsewhere and get it done correctly and save the self time and money read more

We stopped in on a whim. Employees were friendly but quality wasn't great. We just moved to the area. My previous nail place would never let me walk out with such a mess. I'm very disappointed. Especially for what I paid:( read more

Don't know how this place is still open honestly. Went years ago and it was horrible and the only reason I went back yesterday was because I had a gift certificate, originally wanted two manicures and pedicures. Half way in I told my boyfriend we are just getting one service done due to the lack of customer service and care. I had a male that was ruff, basically pulling and throwing my feet out of the water to the point I was splashed water on the floor. I decided on a light orange color, common sense would say put white underneath to make it pop. Nope , didn't do that didn't tell me he was finished just walked away and started playing on his iPad. So at this point I'm over it but I still decided to tip, he took the tip and walked away ..... no thank you or anything. Yeah this will be my last time for sure !!! My nails also look like my 4 year old painted them but whatever. read more

Amazing salon! They do great work, for very affordable prices. Not to mention their nails last long and are applied great for their quality.

Three strikes and you're out! I always made an appt with the same manicurist because she was awesome. Once when I got there, they made me wait because a man walked in and wanted a manicure but none of the men would do it; so they pulled my manicurist to do it (while they sat doing nothing). Another time a woman wanted nail art and they pulled my manicurist to do it and made me wait. The last time a woman came in and said she was in a rush, so again they pulled my manicurist and made me wait! The men there are rude. Fortunately my manicurist left and I found her at another salon! read more

I have gone twice to Cindy's nails. The first experience was not even adequate. I had a pedicure & paid for a deluxe but got a very less than adequate foot massage, overall nail detail & polish. Since I live less than a mile, it's so convenient, I decided I would give it another try. Bad decision....This time, I requested a pedicure & paid for a deluxe & got the same, along with an old fashioned 'cheese grater' that scraped the side of my right foot all the way to the bone. That was 8 weeks ago & it is still sore. Don't go to this place. read more

It's my fault for going back. Ricky is good & does a good job. I made an appointment & didn't ask for anyone specifically. I got who I believe may be the mother or grandmother of someone who works there. My pedicure lasted (at most) 15 minutes. No massage, minimal (MINIMAL) attention on my feet. She rushed through everything. 1 second of lotion on my calves & a quick polish & boom! My gel polish was the same. There was a football game on behind her & after she nicked my fingers to pieces, she kept turning around looking at the game. She was so distracted she put 3 top coats on my nails. I've honestly never seen anything like this in a nail salon. Don't do it - make an appointment ahead of time & go to a salon that actually cares. With the exception of Ricky, I have never had a good experience. It is convenient to where I live but I'd rather drive to Virginia for a decent experience. I could have done what she did myself. Live & learn. read more

Had my toes done here for Mothers's day with my husband. She did a a fantastic job! It lasted over a month and she nailed my Pinterest inspiration. I got a ton of compliments. She did a great job on the eyebrow wax too. My foot massage was one of the longest I ever got from a nail place. It most likely helped that they were not super busy when I went in. It was a plus in my book that We had a good time chatting with them. My husband mostly goes to sit in the massage chair, but his feet looked much better when we left. He said it was the best place he had been for a couples pedi. I found my new favorite spot for a pedicure at Cindy's Nails. read more

Called last minute on a Saturday afternoon. Staff were very polite and professional they were able to get me right in for a pedicure and gel manicure. They had matching regular colors to go with gel colors. I love that usually I spend a lot of time trying to find colors close enough... price was decent, clean environment read more

Nice place with reasonable prices. I recently moved here from the west coast and was shocked by mani/pedi prices out here. Cindy's is close to home and I think they do a good job at an affordable price. read more

I had heard really good things and they were kinda cheap. I went to get acrylic fills and a regular polish. They did a horrible job filling my nails. The paint job was also terrible. The man managed to get paint all over my fingers but miss the edges of my nail. I would never go back. I also noticed that for pedicures, they don't wear gloves. The tech who put polka dots on my nail didn't wash his hands after touching someone feet. read more

This place is okay. I went yesterday for a pedicure. Wishing I would've went somewhere else. I came at their open time which is 10 am only to see they already opened 10 mins prior according to the log in book. I recommended bringing your own polish. The selection just seemed very slim. Inside appeared dirty. I felt like my visit was rushed. My tech spent no time on callus scrub. Feels like I need another pedicure already. At the end he seats me at the drying table come to realize about 10 minutes later he never turned it on.... read more

1st off I understand because of covid that it was a risk coming here today. However I would have never thought they would allow as many walk Ins at the same time especially at a time time this. When I 1st got there there was an older lady and she had walked through the whole establishment before anyone tried to help her. Then she didn't have a mask on they told her she needed a mask. Finally they gave her one but everyone basically laughed at her and made her feel uncomfortable about it. 2nd when I got my pedicure chair they did not sanitize anything after there was a lady in the same spot just mins before. I then picked out my color and showed the guy what design I wanted he said okay we can do that. Then I choose my pedicure package I wanted and 3 of the items was not preformed because he rushed to get it done because they were busy. (I scheduled an appointment prior) I then was getting my manicure done and he used gel which look like a different color under the UV light. Once when he was done he asked me if the color was okay but was a completely different color then my toes which I asked to please make sure they matched. He then was so quick to wanting me to cash out he didn't get my design done like I had asked about previously , or my eye brows since I had an appointment. He said sorry we don't have time. I explained I had made an appointment for all these things and he seemed frustrated with me at this point and made a different guy finish my design which was fine but don't tell me you don't have time especially when you just allowed all these walk In customers to come in . I just wish they were more clean and following proper protocols since the majority or there customers are older women. read more

This use to be my favorite place. Unfortunately, the past few times I had an appointment, I waited an hour. Tonight, I go in for an eyebrow wax she tells me 10 minutes. Then looks at me and tells me come back tomorrow, and refuses to do the wax. I will make sure to NEVER recommend them to anyone!!!!! read more

Eyebrow wax was great- pedicure was good. Color choice- 'eh'- but my fault....

Overall, salon is a good choice. I was not disappointed with pedicure, manicure, or eyebrow wax. Prices are very reasonable. Staff is friendly. Salon is clean. read more

I've always been very happy with their eyebrow waxing and pedicures and have been a recurring customer. I had one manicure here and wasn't impressed. It was sloppy. I will admit I'm picky. I haven't seen that tech there since though so I'd probably get another manicure there again as long as it was with someone else. read more

Awesome job on my fill in by John. He was super nice and fast! Very professional as well as reasonably priced.

I just moved here and am looking for a nail shop. This was my first try and I got Steve for a fill. Because we are moving my nails had some chips and cracks. He charged to fix each one and told me next time they will be better because he fixed them "good". The shape was inconsistent and lumpy. Within 2 days several were lifting and the little bit if growth left sharp and bumpy edges where they were against my cuticles. and one week later one nail broke completely off and there was fungus. Will not return...I've never gotten fungus in many years of having my nails done. Disappointing to have to spend again in a week to fix his mess. read more

I got a pedicure from Cindy's Nails for the first time, yesterday. They provided exceptional customer service. They were somewhat busy but still took their time. I will definitely be going back! read more

I got my nails done for prom here. This was my first time ever getting my nails done, and I intended on getting (shorter) stiletto nails. I ending up having... a very interesting experience. My nail technician was a quite old Asian man. He immediately and roughly started on my nails without saying much to me. He used this circular saw tool to literally saw off a lot of my actual nails. As I have never had fake nails before, this was unpleasantly unexpected and I asked him why it was being done. He did not speak English well and responded with "acrylics are to make nails long." I endured the uncomfortable process. After gluing on the fake nails, he was getting ready to trim them down. He asked "Is this good length?" and began cutting them all that length before I gave him an answer. I told him I actually wanted stiletto nails. He had to ask another worker what these were, and then said "Oh ok," and then proceeded to roughly handle my nails without speaking to me. After some very painful nail-filing, he began painting my nail with the dark blue I had picked. He did not ask me what design I wanted or how I wanted them painted, he simply began covering the nails with the dark blue and mentioned " these are too short for pointy nails, it would not look good." I told him I wish he had said that before he cut them and that I did not want flat nails. I was incredibly uncomfortable for this entire experience. Once I was at the drying table I examined them closer. The acrylics were placed unevenly. They were filed crooked and unevenly. Even the nail polish was uneven as he didn't fill in all the spaces. With a pep talk from two friends and a stranger at the drying table, I mustered up the strength to tell the workers that I was not satisfied with my nails and wanted them redone. However, as I got up there, my disappointment, feeling of being disrespected, and fear of confrontation, I immediately began crying. My friend had to speak for me, and said "She isn't happy with her nails, is there any way you could fix them for her?" This man was very friendly and listened as I told him why I didn't like them. He began taking off the nail polish while telling me not to cry and trying to make me laugh. He spent a lot of time smoothing out the acrylics and talked to me about how I wanted them painted, even offering suggestions. He then painted them carefully and beautifully. He was social with better English and would laugh a lot and answer any of my questions thoroughly. All throughout this, my first nail technician simply sat in the corner at his station, staring at his phone uncaringly. My nails were salvaged and I was very happy with how the second man treated me. I wasn't charged by him and I gave him a tip once my nails dried. I gave the first man no tip, and only paid the cost of the acrylics. Unfortunately, I did not catch the name of the first technician. If any of you go to Cindy's Nails, do not go to the eldest Asian man with a very strong accent. My friends had no problems with their technicians, and I was very happy with the second man. His name was Tony. In the end, I am happy with my nails, but I highly doubt I will return here. I do hope the first man got a stern talking to. read more

My husband & I wanted to get a relaxing pedicure. Since my usual spot was closed on Sunday, we decided to try Cindy's nail salon. We walked in & no one working there acknowledged that we walked through the door. We sat down & waited 5-7 minutes & still no one said anything to us. They weren't even busy. After being treated as if we didn't exist, my husband & I walked out. They lost our business today and any future business. Very rude employees or owner...idk. They need to be taught how to treat & apperciate people that walk in to their establishment to get a service. We'll never be going back. read more

My experience here was horrible. I always go to the same place for eyebrow waxing as they always do a fantastic job. This time I was running short on time and Cindy's Nails was near by so I thought I'd give them a shot. While the shaping was fine, she did not blow on the wax before putting it on me and has left a huge burn mark under my left eyebrow. I will NEVER be returning to this nail salon again. read more

This was the most unprofessional place ever.Nails came loose in less than one week and now I have a fungus! They use super glue to put them back on and still didn't stay.BEWARE....after sharing my story with others in the area there have been many cases of FUNGI at CINDYs NAILS, read more

I asked to have the 'deluxe' pedicure for my mother-in-law, and regular for myself. I had to remind the nail tech halfway through that he wasn't giving my MIL the 'deluxe' pedicure. The tech kept jumping from one client to the next, they never looked at our feet to see where the callouses were, in fact most the of time the looked every where but our feet. They left us in the chair and didn't tell us when we could go to the dryer section. The floor was crowded with equipment and I had to lead my MIL through the maze of equipment. They even had a problem adding up the cost of our pedicures. I will not be going back. read more
