(Very late post). I decided to no longer visit the nail salon that I had been tending for several…read moremonths now due to feeling unheard about my nail care; I had also been on the hunt for a black owned nail salon for quite some time. Little did I know that Royal-Reed was literally located minutes away from my office! Nestled in St. Ann. The website to book your appointment was simplistic enough to follow. When I had a question, I was able to speak with someone immediately, who was friendly and kind on the other end. When I arrived, I was immediately taken up for my appointment - by chance, not by the person I originally booked with, but the owner instead. Mrs. Reed was so sweet. A wonderful conversationalist and entrepreneur. She informed me that her business was approaching their 5th year soon and described to me her vision for the future to help educate others in the profession. She was also able to explain to me of how to better care for my nail care concerns. When I got my pedicure however, I was placed with Dawn who is an up and coming artist. Baby...when I tell you she put work in on my feet, she put some work in. THE BEST PEDICURE I HAVE EVER HAD!! My feet were so smooth leaving the salon. Mind you, my appointment was on December 28th and the heels of my feet are STILL smooth (it's January 10th). Overall, the salon itself was nice and carried great energy. Mrs. Reed prides herself on practicing safe care for the clients staff and her artists. Royal-Reed has definitely found a client in me.

She knew she had an appointment at 1. My appointment was at 10. She didn't show up u til 10:20 and was rushing the entire time claiming she "needed to be on time" all of my nails are crooked, the top cost is patchy, the chrome came off basically all the charms. Charms fell off the day after. They're chunky and uneven and just not cute. I asked her if she could fix them and she banned me from making appointments! How are you gonna give me crap nails and then ban me when u say something? DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY AT ROYAL REED!!!

He wouldn't listen to my concerns, He caught an attitude when I told him to change the line color (gold to silver) and he almost nailed it (no pun intended). I was talking to my sister and showing her my nails but he was rude and told me to put my hand back in the drying lamp. The place was a little dirty and I was intimidated by my surroundings. Other than that, I continued through the process. My nails are thick and I paid $50 for this.

I am usually a walk-in, but today was the first time I had an appointment…read more I was two minutes late and they called me to confirm that I still planned on coming, which was great. I was seated immediately and they started my pedicure. They are sanitary- the bowls are lined and they wear gloves. They either speak English or they don't but there's always at least one English speaking person in the salon. I have not noticed them talking across the room in their language which tends to make me uncomfortable. I love the results and would recommend this salon.

When you first walk in customer service is great. Nice clean facility but when you ask for a…read morepedicure, they have many different options. We did the $30 plan asked for a gel polish and acrylic toenail the fake one. Yeah, my daughter had to ask for a rep polish twice. The toenails are not the same size. The second man came and shaved it down, but cut my toe put some alcohol on it. Informed him that it was burning he couldn't speak English or understand it. None of the three men that did our feet. Why pay for something that is improperly done. I would not recommend this location because they do not understand English or comprehend very dissatisfying and very disappointed. My foot is still somewhat burning $122 wasted on BS. As you can see in the photos, one toe is longer than the other one toe is lopsided so very disappointed.

I looked at my hands and they look exactly like they would look any other time I come here. Just pissed me off. Just an excuse not to make money. Never had a problem with these people until today.
