    Watermelon Accent Nails hand-painted by Christina Matte pink is OPI Pink Flamingo & bright green is Summer Lime!
    Rachelle P.

    I was looking for a new nail salon and found this small/family owned business browsing on Instagram. Nail artist Christina hand painted watermelon accent nails with a reference picture I brought in. The matte pink she picked out is Pink Flamingo and the bright green is Summer Lime! I would definitely recommend this beautiful nail salon, as well as my nail technician Christina! She is an expecting mama that has been doing nails for a couple years and said she could confidently do any of the nail art I showed her! Hubby and I will definitely be back for pedicures, they have great prices! 15% new clients! SYOY! :-) * Music: Glitter Blast by Kevin MacLeod Site: https://filmmusic.io/song/4707-glitter-blast License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license

    Gateway Way nails and spa new location. Same great staff, beautiful establishment, sleek and modern. I came here for an eyelash appointment and left extremely happy. I was nervous because I haven't gotten lashes in a while but Christina made the anxiety free. Great quality service and hospitality. Not your average nail salon. Highly recommend!

    Horrible manicure job
    Victoria A.

    I was kindly offered a complimentary manicure after my last poor experience with gel manicure chipping on the 3rd day. Well....it was even worse this time. I was cut, and pictures really speak for themselves. Oh, and my manicure didn't start until 30 minutes after my appt time, and the lady just left me soaking the old gel off to attend to newly arrived guest without ever coming back until I called for someone as I was running late. I'm never coming back as it was extremely stressful instead of relaxing.

    There pedicures are amazing and the place is gorgeous! Without the super high price tag

    Scratched nail.

    I was charged $32 for removal of gel and a "manicure" My nails have never looked worse! They are extremely scratched, with layers ripped off. There is still chunks of gel on the sides of my nails. It was a really messy job, down to my cuticles being groomed. I've never had this happen before and I was so horrified, I ran out of there. It's going to take some time for my nails to heal and repair themselves, I'm super bummed and I hope this doesn't happen to anyone else.

    I love gateway nails! Always so clean and relaxing. The music is great. I hate going to other nail places and everyone just talks so loud or the lights are too harsh.. and gateway is just the opposite .. soo relaxing and the vibes are always good.

    I've been coming here for years now! 1 stop for many things. Eyelash, nails, pedi and wax! Excelling job and I leave stunning every time. Keeps me looking gorgeous!

    Uyen was wonderful and she did my Gel manicure perfect! She is fast and detailed and I will visit this salon again. Very clean and spacious, calming and with good quality products. Lan provided a great manicure for my husband as well and he was falling asleep so very calming!

    Today I went to Gateway Nails & Spa to get a gel manicure for my graduation on Saturday. Susan did an amazing job for such a hard design. She was friendly and if there was something I didn't like she fixed it for me. Additionally, the atmosphere was comfortable and pleasant. I enjoyed my time and service and plan to go back in the future to see, Susan for my nails, as well as get wax and lash services! *inspo pic attached!*

    I always book an appt anytime I go for my nails. They never take me at the time of my appointment…read moreand then they don't offer anything for your time. I waited 45 minutes past my appointment time once before and still charged for every little thing. Then today I book an appt and I get there and my tech has just started someone else. I understand being busy but appts should be checked before starting something new, or notify the appts that you won't be started at your appt time. I work a lot and don't have a ton of free time so the lack of respect for my time is super inconsiderate especially with how much I pay every time, and recommend other people to the business, which I just did recently and now my sister has been going there. **UPDATE** in response to the below comment... that information is actually not accurate at all and actually makes it look like you are making excuses for it. Yes I arrived at 11:39 (early for my 11:45 appt) when I asked the front desk guy if my tech, who I visibly saw with my own eyes working actively on a client in the very beginning phase of a nail job, would be finished soon as my appt was at 11:45, he responded with a defensive "we are down 4 techs today" when I asked this I looked at the time at it was 11:45 exactly. I was not able to sit there for an hour as stated previously I have one day off and had other things to do. I'm not asking for special treatment, this is usually standard for an appointment. The front guy didn't even try to find out how long I would have to wait or if he would be finishing up soon (probably not considering I could see him clearly) so everything the business owner replied is actually not at all true and I don't appreciate the gaslighting.

    I've been a loyal customer of this salon for over 10 years, coming in every month without fail…read more During that time, I've referred countless friends, family members, and even bridal parties because I truly believed in the quality of their work. Unfortunately, I can no longer recommend this salon. Over the past year, many of their best technicians have left, and I've noticed a significant decline in consistency. I understand that prices increase over time, and I don't mind paying more for quality service. In fact, they've raised their prices again, and I have no issue with that. My concern is that I'm paying premium prices but receiving vastly different experiences depending on which technician I get. I routinely receive the same services, yet the quality, attention to detail, and even the steps included in the service vary from technician to technician. Sometimes the service is excellent, and other times it feels rushed or incomplete, despite paying the exact same price. During my most recent visit, I brought these concerns to the manager's attention. While they listened, I was still charged the full amount and no effort was made to address the inconsistency or acknowledge my dissatisfaction. As someone who has supported this business for over a decade, that was incredibly disappointing. To be fair, the salon is beautiful, stays current with the latest nail trends, and their technicians are capable of creating intricate, modern designs. However, when you're charging premium prices, customers should be able to expect a consistently high-quality experience regardless of which technician they are assigned. After more than 10 years of loyalty, it's disappointing to say that I'll be looking elsewhere. There are other salons in the area charging similar prices that provide a more consistent experience and better overall value. I genuinely hope this salon addresses these issues because it used to be one of the

The pamphlet said princess included paraffin wax, but this was not part of it? Pedicure is absolutely beautiful with flower design and gel polish. Manicure has some problems. First, great care was taken on my manicure as it had been a while I was in desperate need for cuticle clean up. Great job! Problem is polish, gel not used. I thought color selected maybe wasn't in gel? and that's why. Classic polish done. Sat for bit to dry. About 3 hours later after departing spa when opening wine bottle polish one two fingers got ruined. It squished polish as if under coats never dried. Went back to Salon next afternoon and the nails were fixed with no charge. Looked good. I am happy with it. But, One day later the nail polish is already chipping off. I am already away from town for vacation and treated myself before going. But the poor quality of the nail polish has made my manicure ugly quickly. The staff were great, friendly, professional. The establishment was clean. And experience there was great.
