    Lisa did a great job with my manicure! She was very pleasant and very meticulous. I will definitely get a manicure from her again.

    Unfortunately, after going here for months and months loyally, I will be finding a new nail shop to…read morego to. I tried everything I could to resolve the issue, because I prefer to leave positive or helpful words when I can here. But bad service is bad service. When I come here, I go in and allow whoever is free to do my nails because I usually have a great experience regardless. But twice now, I have been given to someone who isn't ready to be doing nails. The first time I was serviced, months ago, all of my nails hurt SO badly for 3-4 days. He drilled over my skin continuously. But when I went in yesterday, I decided to give him a second shot. I regret that so much. All of my fingers were cut and bleeding. I told him he was hurting me and he said it's just hot. And kept on drilling. I started to dissociate at that point. They hurt so bad. The acrylic set (brand new) that he applied was so badly done. I thought I might be over reacting so I asked some others and they all agreed that the nails were absolutely terrible and I should go get them fixed. I'm not one for confrontation, but they hurt so bad and we're too thick to use for anything. As you can see in photos. I am always patient and forgiving and leave good tips, so I expected the shop to hear my complaint and help me out. They said on the phone when my friend called for me, that they'd make it right if I came in in person to discuss it. So I did. I drove the 28 minutes to get there, they said they were too busy to help me, and said they'd issue a full refund but they had to call the card merchant first. I said ok, left my info, and went on. They did not offer to fix, replace, or give me any tips for healing my nails and skin. They called me later to tell me that their boss told them not to refund me, that they'd give me half off, and tried to convince me that I had an acrylic allergy and wasn't cut. They said "we are poor so no refund." And "it happens so oh well" I get it. Business is hard. But as a loyal long time customer, I just wanted to be treated kindly. When I went to another stylist in a different shop she was appalled at the state of my nails and skin. She kept apologizing that this happened to me, and noted how badly cut my skin was over and over. She could not fix the nails they were so badly done, had to remove them all, before she could treat the skin underneath and apply a new set. I am so so exhausted after all of this. I wish I had better things to say. I tried to resolve via email first and never got a response. If you go here, make an apt with one of the experienced stylists. Or you know, just don't.

    I asked to confirm twice the price for Gel X manicure and I was told $50 when I scheduled then I…read morewas charged $60 with no designs. Maybe I misunderstood? But I think prices need to be posted somewhere. Especially online when it's someone's first time and they are deciding where to go. The manicure from Tina on the top view looks pretty good, but underneath the glue was excessive. Maybe that's normal after Gel C manicure? I don't know it was my first time but I brought it to the nail techs attention and she picked away at it a little bit a lot was left. It seemed she was rushing herself because she had another client waiting. You can see it in the pictures it feels super annoying. Can't say that I'll be back.

    In a last minute effort to "treat myself," I went on the hunt for a salon open on Mondays and…read morestumbled upon this salon. In 11 years of living less than 10 minutes away, I had never heard of this place. I'm so glad I found them, though! They were all welcoming and took me right in as a walk-in. I asked for a pedicure and SNS. I was immediately seated for a pedicure and started on promptly. The pedicure was the perfect length. Not too short, but not so long that I was over it. For the SNS- Although I had cut my own nails down to the length I wanted, they respected it and did a beautiful job! These are the most perfect, natural-looking nails I've ever had done. She actually built the nail up a bit with a natural SNS and polished it with gel which surprisingly feels so much better! The price was comparable to all the other salons I've been to in the last couple of years. I especially liked that they didn't have a lot on the walls. Some salons are overwhelming with photos, decor, and shelves of colors and dips, but not here. It truly was calm and peaceful and I felt relaxed the entire time I was there. I cannot wait to go back!

    Everything was great! Mia gave me a wonderful pedicure! She also did a full set for my wedding! She…read moredid an amazing job and made sure they were exactly what I wanted! She was so kind and passionate about her job! She is extremely talented!

This may be the best my hands have ever looked/felt! 10 stars! -- UPDATE: was able to get through via phone! Excited to try this place out, hoping to report 5 star experience shortly! -- I made an appointment last night, can't find confirmation of appointment time. Logged back into the site - no appointments showing. I called them to try to see what's going on, no answer. Left a voicemail about an hour ago trying to figure out my appointment time and if I was even actually on the books. No call back. Tried to book it again, and the site was being glitchy. Tried to close out and book from the very beginning, and I get an error message that I've exceeded the maximum number of requests to try again in 12 hrs. About to call one more time, but I'm betting I'm not going to get through. I was really looking forward to trying this place :(

The salon focuses on cleanliness and customer satisfaction. I appreciate it that they have washed my hands when I arrive. They also showed off the room where they sanitize all the equipment. You get to choose your scrub and lotion sent as well as your color. I was going to get the spa manicure but they were running late so I just got the basic one. The technician did a wonderful job on my nails. She made sure I was happy with the color before she painted them. She created a custom color based on what I was looking for. I would definitely come back the next time I need my nails done.

    While visiting in town this place was a referral suggestion. Upon entering I was greeted and asked…read moreto select a color for my pedicure. The lady then seated me and declined my request to soak for a while. They brought me fruit and a request glass of wine. "If you are giving these options at least give time to enjoy." The massage chair is fire! The services were great and worth my trip. Did a great job on my toes. Pricing was a bit confusing cause I asked for a $48 service and was charged $63. Which did not include the tip. So I think they up-charge me. That is the only concern.

First time here, and I am very impressed with how appealing it is on first impression. Brightly lit, calm music, and most importantly for me, no smell! Most nail salons have a nauseating level of chemical smell when you walk in, and that was absent here. Eyes closed, I might not have guessed where I was at. They have a wide variety of services, and my wife was happy with the "Hard Gel" option as an alternative to SNS. We walked in without an appointment and were taken care of immediately. Staff were friendly and helpful. Real surprising twist here: they served fresh fruit and drinks to the customers! (And even gave some fruit to me patiently waiting in the corner!) I would like to see a bit more hygiene focus. I didn't see much hand washing from staff, and work surfaces didn't seem to be getting cleaned between clients (concerning since there is so much nail dust from the filing.) Also, nail dust near fresh fruit seems like an oversight. Overall one of the best places I've been a bystander at!

    Came here on a whim before work one day and I was pleasantly surprised by the service and prices!…read moreThe nail salons I've been to prior here in Winston were very expensive and unfortunately ruined the quality of my nails as I didn't realize they were drilling them too far down when taking off the gel manicures. They took the extra time to take care of my nails for me, added nail strengthener, were extra gentle with the nails that were damaged, and recommended I wait for more healthy growth before putting more paint down. Once my nails are ready I will be going back! The wait on a weekday evening was about 30-45 minutes, I will definitely be making an appointment next time!

I only wish they had more OPI options but they did have a decent amount. I came here in the days leading up to Thanksgiving and they were packed to the brim with regulars and walk-ins. The wait for me as a walk-in was about 45 minutes but well worth it. I got a gel manicure only. Lynn, the technicians, was very detail-oriented and did a wonderful job on the manicure. Which never chipped even after a month of not being able to get another mani. It just continued to grown out. I was thoroughly impressed. The service did not take long and was performed with a smile. I will certainly return when I am in the area and highly recommend them.
