    They do the best work in the City! The owner goes above and beyond to make sure each client is more than happy. I always love my nails.

    If I could give Eden a hundred stars, I would in a heartbeat. They saved my nails and gave me an…read moreincredible gel tip manicure. I mean, look at the photo! Before Eden, I went to a different salon that gave me a botched, painful manicure, but I was able to schedule an appointment with Eden for the next morning. They removed the gel tips, were really gentle with my nails, and fitted the new ones with care. I was nervous because I'd never had gel tips before, but I love my nails now. It's been two weeks and they still look perfect. They're comfortable, pretty, and feel good on my fingers. If you're going to get your nails done, get them done here. (I'm bringing my mother-in-law next time!)

    I never leave bad reviews, but the rudeness of the two owners of this place exceeded any normal …read more I'd made a reservation for 10 AM and drove 15 min, but no one was at the store. when I called to ask why the owner Linh said it hadn't gone through because I hadn't pushed the final button finalize it, and that other customers had had the same problem. when I said I was disappointed at the website, which did not have any cues that the been accepted andhad appeared to allow me to make the appointment, She got angry, told me I couldn't blame her if I couldn't use a computer, and hung up. since I was in the mall, I stopped in to see if they could do a walk-in and they literally physically pushed me to the door, accusing me of making her late for all her with my previous call ( my phone showed that it was a two minute call and well before she opened ). A simple "sorry that happened" would have totally saved this fiasco. Even for private business, customer service requires the skills to be gracious, and that was sadly lacking. I am an ally of the clear community and prefer to patronize small women or businesses, but this one for sure is crossed off my list.

    I don't usually write reviews but this places deserves 100000/10!! I'm in NC for vacation from…read moreBaltimore and needed my nails done for my trip to Bonnaroo. I'm very picky and read reviews on many many places and I'm SO glad I took a chance here! This place blew my home nail salon out of the water and I would gladly and quickly return any chance I get. I got the peppermint pedicure and it was so relaxing and worth the money. My manicure looks incredible I am overjoyed with how it turned out! The attention to detail here is outstanding. Coming here left me feeling so relaxed and so so happy with my fingernails and toes . Thank you so much Vin Nails & Spa you guys are the BEST!!!!!!

    We just moved to the area so I started looking for a shop that did quality pedicures. For me,…read morequality is not rushed, minimum 45 minutes and overall relaxing. My shop before is kind of far away, so figured I give a new spot a try. Based on the reviews this sounded like a great place to go. Numerous reviews stating comfy pedicures that weren't rushed and were relaxing. This was KEY for me. Now, my other shop is a force to be reckoned with so this sounded like the same vibe. Unfortunately, it fell very short for me. The first thing I rarely do is book a pedicure without the amount of time stated on their menu. Which this place did not have, but did state how long the massage would be during the service you picked. We did Vin's pedicure which included an 8 minute massage. Do I feel like I was massaged for 8 minutes? Not really. Not only that, the service was done in 30 minutes. The color I picked was not cleaned up around the edges and my pinky toe had a piece of nail that wasn't even polished. For me, the quality is just not there. Attention to detail was lacking and it's honestly not something I want anyone to fix per se, because it should have already been done in the first place. Last but certainly not least, my feet were so dry when I left. No cuticle oil or anything. For what we paid, I wasn't impressed and would rather spend more for a quality pedi vs a turn and burn pedi. Now the pros: nice massage chairs, complimentary drink and they offer wine as well. The 2nd drink you would have to pay for.
