I'm a regular for lash extensions, but have also gotten facial and teeth whitening services. I'm extremely picky when it comes to my lashes and after moving to C'ville this summer, I was nervous about finding a new person. Mandi was great from the start. She is a taping queen and is spot on with what I asked for. I have minimal fall out and constant compliments on my lush lashes. Highly recommend. Give her a try. Scheduling is super easy. I hate calling places to make an appointment. She gives you all the info you want to know upfront.

I've been a customer at Wild & Free for several years now, and recently I booked the Barewell…read moreritual facial (with a hand and arm massage add on) with Raven. This is probably the best and most relaxing facial I've had at this spa to date. Raven did a great job meeting my goals for hydration and relaxation, and honestly I'd book with her again! This experience was completely ruined when I went to check out and they declined my gift card. For Christmas my sister regifted me a $100+ gift card I purchased for her in March 2024 (It was a birthday present, and just due to various circumstance she was unable to use it). At checkout I was informed that the gift card was expired, but the spa owner was able to give me a "courtesy" discount for 20% off product in the store. Please note that as a longtime client of this spa I have NEVER seen or heard of any gift card expiry policy from Wild & Free and the gift card didn't have an expiration date on the card, on the receipt, and during purchase no one mentioned it. The spa owner claims "that has always been the policy" but it's listed obscurely in the "About" section on the website (not where customers could easily see it while purchasing a gift card) and it was not previously listed in the "Policy" section. Thankfully I was able to get a refund, but I will no longer be booking services with Wild & Free after this experience.

If I could give this place zero stars, I absolutely would…read more This was hands down the worst experience I've ever had at a nail salon. I went in just to get my acrylics removed and a regular manicure. The machine they had me use to soak off the nails was absolutely disgusting -- it was covered in other people's nail dust and had an old, dirty paper towel in it. When the technician started applying the top coat, the polish began to smear and bubble. She and another employee started talking back and forth (clearly confused about whether it was gel or regular polish), but she left it as-is and told me to sit with the fans on my hands for over 20 minutes. When she finally came back, she looked at my nails and said, "Oh, this is gel!" At that point, she aggressively removed everything and told me to wash my hands. I told her I didn't want any polish at all after that mess. When I came back, she didn't even let me sit before rushing to put cuticle oil on--while there was still polish all around my cuticles. I asked her to please remove it, which she did, but then hurried me off like I was an inconvenience. After nearly two hours, I was charged $35 for this experience. One of the younger staff members claimed she "took $15 off," but I left on the verge of tears -- I'm not confrontational, and I just wanted to leave. My nails looked terrible, my skin was red, and I didn't even get an apology. Absolutely awful service, unsanitary equipment, and no accountability. Do yourself a favor and go literally anywhere else.

It was only me and the technician in the shop so it was not busy. I looked around and realized the jars of disinfectant and sterilizers were empty and unused and all the tools were lying around at unkempt stations. At this point, it was too late. To make a long story short, I wish I hadn't been so desperate and paid more attention to the lack of clean tools. My nails have been in terrible shape since my visit.
