    I had the worst experience with UNHAPPY NAILS today. look at the horrible manicure the nail tech who is the owner did on my daughte. she was very impatien, nasty and rude. Her English is horrible, she all the employees wear EarPods while working that you have to talk loud to make yourself understan. My kid didn't understand the directions of this horrible lady that she start rolling her eyes and possibly cursing my daughter (15) in her language. she made a messy and poor job. I don't recommend this horrible place full of mold to anybody.

    I will never recommend this place to anyone! Went in for a pedicure. Sat in the chair and this guy that looked 16 just started working my feet. He never asked what type of pedicure I wanted. He just did the basic which was fine, but he didn't even push my cuticles back on my left foot. He did the right foot, but not the left foot. He did not do a very good job of trimming the cuticles either. He cut one of my cuticles and it's bleeding and I still see dead, dry skin around my toenails. He scrubbed my left foot but only did half of my right foot. I was shocked when I paid $35 for this awful pedicure. If it was an option, I would not give it any stars! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!

    Service was good. Nails on the other had I would not recommend. I have a couple bubbles in two nails and she filed my nail until it bleed. The shaping of my nails are pretty awful. Not happy nails at all. Wasted $30.

    I believe his name was Tony, he did a beautiful job! He made me really comfortable and made sure I loved the shape and design! He compared each nail to each other and made sure the french tip was even along with the nail length.

    Iv been getting my eyebrows done hear for many years and wouldn't go anywhere else. I usually end up with the same woman who's amazing and get nervous when a new woman's in her place , but it's always turned out well. I don't get pedicures very often but this would be my place of choice after the one I received from here in the past. Few times I've waited but I was a walk in and it's never been for very long. Little hidden away, but I like that for easy parking and not long wait.

    If you ever need an ingrown toenail fixed, this is the place to go! The staff is nice and very accommodating. The prices are also fair.

    I'm honestly not sure my nails have ever looked worse. I wanted a clear base with pink tips. This…read moreis what I got. The shape is totally inconsistent (I asked for almond), there are weird jagged edges, the powder shows through, and there are odd bubbles throughout (can't see them in the pictures). My nail tech was obviously rushing the whole time. She didn't get all the excess powder off between layers, and never checked with me on the shape. By the time I realized she wasn't going to go back and fix them she was already putting on the gel coat and it was too late. I'm extremely disappointed. Beyond the low quality, the salon was taking very few Covid precautions (half the staff wasn't wearing masks, customers weren't required to wash hands before service, and none of the desks were cleaned down between customers).

    By far the BEST quality nail salon in Charlottesville! They know what they are doing and truly care…read moreabout each and every client and make sure they are giving you exactly what you want. Anna is SO sweet and extremely talented. She does not rush or skip over steps and she is also hilarious. I have tried countless nail salons in Charlottesville and have never been satisfied until I found this place. I prefer dip powder and they had so many color options and her technique was amazing. Definitely the best quality dip manicure you can get in Charlottesville. It's clean, quiet, and peaceful. I don't have enough good things to say! FYI: you can't tip on a credit card so bring cash! They also don't take AMEX or discover GO HERE!
