    I'm giving this salon a 4 Star because I am very satisfied with how my nails look. The shape is exactly how I wanted and the color is so pretty. Not to mention they have the most colors I've ever seen a salon have to choose from. I even complimented how organized the colors were. My pedicure was nice although they could have rubbed my feet a little more...isn't that one of the main reasons we get a pedi ladies lol the salon seemed very well maintained and prices were reasonable. I got gel on my toes and my acrylic balanced and gel and the total was around 110 with a tip.

    I had the worst nail experience of my life at Gen Nails and don't encourage anyone to receive services there. I arrived with acrylics and ask the owner if it was safe to remove them and add gel polish to my natural nails on the same day. She said of course and preceded to remove them. I asked to keep my natural nail length and have a rounded shape. When I sat with the tech who applied my gel she immediately filed down my nails in a short square shape and did not understand me when I tried to explain to her that was not what I wanted. When she applied the gel it was extremely thick and uneven. She applied 3 coats to one hand and 2 on the other. I tried to explain to her again and she still could not comprehend what I was saying to her. The "manicure" didn't include a hand massage or lotion and I was charged $45 for my experience. When I questioned the owner about my total when their price sheet shows a gel manicure at $25 she explained that I paid $20 for the manicure & $25 for the polish application. I'm not familiar with a salon charging separately for these services, especially when I don't believe I received a manicure. I truly believe the owner saw that I was frustrated & dissatisfied with the service and assumed I would not be returning and up- charged me intentially. I didn't want to cause a confrontational scene so I chose to unhappily pay the bill, and left vowing to never return. As I got a better look and feel for my nails my anger intensified. There were clearly bubbles and uneven spots on nearly every nail and although there were 3 coats on one hand, my nails were extremely fragile and bending. The edges of my nails were beginning to peel that same day because the polish was too thick. At that point I concluded that it was not a fair situation for Gen salon to have even received payment for such a dissatisfactory job. And I don't think it was the right decision to apply gel polish to nails that were just covered with acrylics. I think the owner said it was alright because she didn't want to lose my business. I went back to the salon in the morning and spoke with the owner about my nails, to request a refund. She took a quick glance at my nails and continued working on the client she was with. She didn't attempt to hear me, or apologize for my experience.. Nothing. She barely made eye contact and attempted to ignore my presence entirely. She exclaimed that the salon doesn't offer refunds under any circumstances and the only thing she would do is repaint them. I'm sorry, but after the horrible experience with this salon, I didn't trust them to work on me again, and I wasn't going to spend one more moment there. The unsatisfactory nail experience is something that could have happened anywhere. What disgusted me the most was the lack of understanding or customer service directly from the owner. This is your business and an extension of you. I would expect you to care about the opinions of your clients. The impression that was left on me is that they are completely focused on how much money they could gain from me, as opposed to my repeat business. I rarely ever write bad reviews. I try to give businesses the benefit of the doubt when a negative experience occurs. But I was so appalled with the entire process at Gen, I felt compelled to share this story, and encourage you to seek services from salons that deserve your business.

    Very beautiful, clean nail salon! I got a quick, non abrasive gel removal and normal manicure. My too-long nails were perfectly cut down and shaped. Great polish selection! Staff was friendly.

    Love the job they did!! Thank you!!

    Had a great time both times I've been there...plus it's close to home! They do a great job on my pedicure!

    came in from DC to see friends and family, thought I'd treat us to a little mani pedi…read more my pedicure, I didn't even get to choose what I wanted, the person did their own thing. she was really nice and did a decent job- tho again, no choice and no frills, but I'm not upset about her. But WHILE I'm getting my pedicure, the nail tech started doing the manicure. no hand washing or exfoliating scrub or cuticle care AT ALL. dude is coughing and coughing, he's wearing a mask at least. but it was SO AWKWARD. I'd ask questions, he wouldn't answer. just intermittent coughs. dude should have stayed home with that nasty cough. so my no frills pedicure is over, I make it to the table to get paint on my nails but now I can actually see them and they look like crap. A lady whom I assume is the manager comes over and asks if all is ok. I show her my nails. she says something to tech and he starts aggressively removing the paint. the paint wasn't the problem-- my cuticles looked lIke crap and should have been pushed back and trimmed so that my manicure could look right. basic manicure 101, right? that's step one. The person who did my pedicure comes over and goes "oh that's normal, cuticle push back would have been $10 extra". I'm like ok so $10- no one told me that. Captain coughs a lot apparently was so ill he couldn't tell me that. The guy at the main counter is right next to us. he's so busy scrolling his phone he never says a word. I assume he's the owner...he was useless. the fact that they charge extra for the basics is wild, but they never bothered to tell me that for $10 more I could have had a normal, nice looking manicure. The brand new nails already looked like they'd been outgrown by weeks and already needed a fill in BEFORE I EVEN WALKED OUT. I was super upset to hand over almost $200 for the 2 of us and my nails looked like garbage from the start. I have never in my life had such a busted ass set of nails. here's what they look like less than a week later. DONT GO HERE. If I lived anywhere near there I'd have pitched a fit until they were fixed but lucky for them I'm 500 miles away. This place obviously doesn't give 2 sh1ts abouts their customers. the ONE star is for my no frills pedicure just because I liked the person. if I could give my manicure person and management -100 stars, I would. on future trips, we won't be coming back to UNhappy Nails. zero stars. do not recommend. Update: this place actually lashed out at me on social media and tried to blame me for this, saying we came at closing time and they told me up front it would be rushed. A- I called ahead. I asked if there was enough time he was very casual and said yeah come on down we have time. But that was not the case. He also tried to say his employee wasn't sick. Ok? I guess he's just a mask wearing mute who coughs a lot? Odd. And no one told me about $10 upcharge to do a nice job- clearly I would have chosen that. And had the guy just been honest WHEN I CALLED AHEAD and communicated that there wasn't enough time to properly take care of us, we'd have simply gone elsewhere. Now I'm on day 11 of crappy nails. First pic was day 3- which is exactly how they looked as soon as they were done. Which I expressed before I left and it was never fixed. Now at day 11, these nails are almost off, my hair keeps getting under them.... They should have looked awesome when first done and lasted at least 3 weeks before having any kind of worn out look. So not only did they fail my nails, they failed at customer service- TWICE. Oh-- and did I mention they referred to my wife and my sister, for no apparent reason? Homophobic maybe. Idk. But I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. What could they improve? Everything. Vibe? Haphazard.

    Jessica did a great job. Very professional . She definitely is one of the best technicians i have…read moreencountered. Would highly recommend. THANK YOU!

    A very pleasant atmosphere and staff very nice. I would recommend. I like all the varieties of nail…read morepolish.

    I was going to this nail shop prior to covid frequently and even suggested it to several coworkers…read more Today I called because I wanted to get some information about their practices since things are changed I asked the following questions: 1) how many people do you allow in at a time? 2) do you use the bowl liners now(because prior to covid they didn't use them) The response from the man(owner) to my question was "Ma'am we use all the PPE required. If you're concerned at covid, you should stay home. *Hangs up the phone* I don't believe my questions prompted that type of response where you pretty much tell me what to do and hang up on me. After, I stated that I wanted to come in within the hour. That was very disrespectful and I will take my money to places that can handle simple inquiries. No one wants to drive somewhere and be surprised. This conversation could have had a better response. Even after he said all that I still remained calm and nice, but I will tolerate being dismissed by individuals that I'm investing my money into their business. Update: I went to bellagio across the way. I called they answered my questions and had me come in. Meanwhile, I'm checking my email and this is the message I received from the owner after my review.
