Not only is the salon comfortable and aesthetically pleasing, but the quality from start to finish is better than any other nail salon I have ever been to. I can't say enough good things about nail essentials!

I am beyond disappointed. I have been a client for almost a year as I am new to the area. I stopped…read morein tonight around 6:30 to pick up my "free gift." Yes, my free gift... I feel like I have to keep repeating that as it was drilled in so much and that's the reason for me being treated so poorly tonight. I walk in and I wait by the counter, all 3 ladies looked at me and one of them did say hi but they all go back to what they were doing. I get it, it's been a long day. I've been going strong since 6 am this morning. It just would have been nice to have been told, " hey, we'll be with you in a few." I waited and waited. I locked eyes with two of the techs. I got more and more uncomfortable as I felt unwelcomed. I got upset as that is not how you treat another person. I messaged who I believe is the owner on instagram. I was met with even more disappointment. I couldn't believe how rude they treated me over a "free gift." I absolutely love Carly and I'm disappointed to no longer have her but I refuse to be disrespected that way. It was absolutely uncalled for. I called out your staff for lying. This is absolutely ridiculous! Over a $5 mug?!?! I understand standing up for your staff but not when they are in the wrong. I love supporting local businesses, especially during these uncertain times but not someone with such a poor attitude. Oh and I guess I'm blocked on their instagram now too. I guess this is how we resolve conflict now.

Took my wee one in for a cut. We got it cut right before the lockdowns in March, and eight months…read morelater it was too long. We were in a new area, and asked around for a place that was being safe, and folks really recommended this spot. Made an appointment, and they said they had only one spot left that day. We get there and the place is almost empty. There was someone on the nails side getting a manicure or something, and then a few friendly staff members. So really socially distant! The little one kept her mask on the whole time, which I guess wasn't too hard with her long hair, but still it made me much more at ease with the whole thing. I appreciate their concern for their customers! The haircut wasn't super complicated, but I think they did a great job. Plus it was at a good price. I think we'll be back, even after the pandemic.
