    Dip manicure
    Melisa S.

    A few people I know talk highly of this place and so I decided to give it a try. I wanted a pedicure and a dip manicure. After seeing what time they open, I ventured over at around 9:45. There open neon sign was on a d I walked in. It was perfect timing, as they were able to accommodate me. I picked my colors and went to the pedicure chair, where I was able to pick the type of pedi I wanted. I opted for their spa pedicure, which includes a leg scrub and a massage with a hot stone. I believe the hot stone is custom for all their pedicures. It's my favorite thing ever so I was happy. I wish I knew who did my mani and pedi, as she was very thorough and pleasant. My feet have never felt smoother. And my nails look great. They stay busy, as the phone rang a lot while I was there and they filled their book with appointments. They have a ton of regulars, as there were many who came in and had conversations about their families, etc. They are practicing Covid protocols and I felt safe.

    Acrylic nails with gel polish

    Moved to Durham. Tried another salon. Drove all the way back to Raleigh to get my nails done right. It's Lux Nails or no nails for me!

    I called and was able to book an appointment an hour later, and when I arrived I was seated specifically with a nail tech who was skilled in nail design. I asked for a very specific design and showed reference photos, and walked away with a GORGEOUS almond acrylic & gel manicure. If you're looking for a great acrylic nail tech, ask for Joanne!! This full set was $62 and I will definitely be returning for my next set! Also, the inside of this establishment is so luxurious and glamorous. It makes you feel like royalty!

    Gel Manicure

    I LOVE this nail salon. I have visited many time and usually call beforehand to make a same-day appointment. Today, I went t as a walk-in. After a short wait, I was seated for my gel manicure with June. She was AMAZING! She really took her time and I was given the same time and attention as the other guests with appointments. I will not go anywhere else for a manicure! Everyone is so nice and accommodating!

    Do NOT use the nail tech Tina. This was my second time using her and my nails looked absolutely horrible both times!! I went for a fill in and color change. She cut my natural nails way too short!!! I told her the last time she did them the dip was not done properly and chipped within 24 hours. Same again, it's already started chipping! I've NEVER had such horrible service. To add insult, when she wanted to do my eye brows and I declined she began talking about me to the tech beside of her. I may not speak her language but when she ask me and after i declined she spoke to the girl beside her and they both then looked at me --- it's obvious!

    Different lengths
    Stacey A.

    STAY AWAY. I am so disappointed. I believe I had Lisa. I got an acrylic full set. She was so rude to me, my nails look so horrible and crooked and she cut my fingers multiple times. She never had me wash my hands during this, and never used cuticle oil. When she glued the tips on, she did a few crooked and I asked her about this and she brushed it off. When she did the nails, I asked about this again and she told me my nails were crooked and that's why it looked like this (they are not). When she filed my nails, they were all different lengths and all different shapes and all crooked and when I asked her to fix them, she gave me attitude and barely tried to fix them. When she put on the gel polish, she only put one coat, I had to ask for two coats of glitter to try and cover up how translucent the white underneath was. When I asked for a second coat, she scoffed at me and begrudgingly added a second coat. When I was checking out, I had to ask for a bandaid for my finger that was bleeding everywhere. Stay away from this place. I would never go back.

    I have been going to Lux Nails since last summer and Tammie has given me the best nail experience, takes her time, extremely professional

    I'm going on week three with my nails perfectly in tact. Lynn did an awesome job. However, it's not the wonderful manicure that will lire me back to Lux Nails, rather it's the way I saw the workers interact with other customers. Steven, the owner knew each person by name that came through the door. A lady getting a pedicure was showing her stylist pictures of her kids. I've never been to a nail salon that had that level of customer service. I can't wait to become a regular!

    Gel Manicure

    Called for an appointment the morning of and was greeted and taken back for my manicure as soon as I walked in. My manicurist did an AMAZING job (as you can see) and cleaned up my cuticles the best I've ever seen. The hot stone massage that is included in the mani was amazing and felt so good. This is my new nail place

This is a new salon with top of the line everything. Well worth the price. Laura (one of their most experienced nail techs) has a lifetime of experience in nail art and her expertise is reflected in her work. The entire staff's dedication to their art and extraordinary customer service is reflected in an exceptionally clean and relaxing environment. I could go on and on about the quality of work as well as the wonderful environment at this salon. It really is that good. Don't hesitate to book an appointment. Laura and all Stonehenge employees maintain not only a friendly, but a fun attitude that cultivates a more relaxing environment than I have experienced getting my nails done. The choice of nail colors, shapes, add ons, and many more make for a salon fit for all tastes and ages. Stonehenge does take walk ins, but I recommend booking an appointment in advance, otherwise you may have to come back another time. The staff is committed to doing things the right way without taking shortcuts, and does not rush to take more customers but focuses on the ones at hand. Business owners take notes, this is how you do it. (Tip 25%+!!!)

She even fit me in last minute several times when I had bridal parties coming up, and I was so grateful for her flexibility and kindness. The whole salon has such a warm, welcoming atmosphere. You can tell how beloved it is by how happy the customers are--many of whom clearly have been coming here for years. I love that it's a family-owned business, and I'd recommend it to anyone in Raleigh looking for high-quality, reliable, and friendly nail care. Phantastic Nails truly lives up to the name!

    Came in to get dip done bc my place I usually go was closed. (I came here in the past but left bc…read moreof the rudeness) I had no other place to go to in the area so I figured I would try it again. I've been getting dip done for a while now and never have I ever seen them use other brands of top coat that didn't go with the dip powder. A little concerned but I'm not the professional, right? At the end when I was about to leave my nails still looked very dull, the owner added a different top coat and it was now shiny. Ok great. I leave and a few days later... all my nails started to chip. Like a hard boil egg does when cracked. I called and they told me to come in. Great! Even though I don't have time for this I need to bc my nails are a mess, and I paid a lot for this service. I get there and the nail tech only wanted to do the nails that were cracked. That was 7 of them. I said." Why not do the other 2? They did but I felt she was annoyed. Also. They spoke Vietnamese about it, so I had no idea what they were saying. I'm sorry. But this is rude and extremely uncomfortable for the client. When I asked the owner why would something like this happen? She told me that it must be something I am doing. I told her that I have NEVER had this problem before so I highly doubt it. She she shrugged and walked away while speaking in Vietnamese. ‍. Anyways. My nails are fixed but they don't feel smooth and she left me with my hands all dirty. Also there is a pink spot on one of my nails, in the color, that should not be there. I asked what that was and I was told it was from the powder. You're ok with that... right? My response was.. " I guess I have to be at this point.. right?" She nodded and that was it. I will NEVER come back to this nail salon again and don't recommend it to anyone else either. Also... Place isn't even pretty looking inside and looks dirty. They don't even put a towel down when doing your service. Smh. I'm a business owner and would never want my name or face on an establishment like this.
