But while scrolling through Instagram and searching hashtags, I came across Magazine Nails and was immediately impressed by their work! I DM'd them with photos of the nail design I wanted and asked if anyone could do it. Not only did they reply quickly, but they confirmed they could do the design and booked my appointment right then and there. The entire interaction felt warm, professional, and welcoming, it really gave me a good feeling about choosing them. When I showed up for my appointment, the front desk greeted me kindly and told me exactly where to sit. Tommie was my nail tech, and when he asked me which of the two reference photos I wanted, I was so impressed...it showed he had really paid attention to our DM conversation. That kind of customer service means a lot! The nails turned out so freaking cute, I absolutely loved them! He nailed the design perfectly. What stood out even more was how friendly the entire staff was. Two other women who worked there stopped by just to compliment my nails. You could tell the vibe in this salon is supportive, artistic, and genuinely fun. For this to be my first visit, it was an incredible experience, and I'm definitely coming back. Highly recommend if you're looking for a talented, friendly team who actually listens and brings your nail vision to life!

After moving to New Orleans I have been trying to find someone who does Russian manicures…read more I have had several appointments with nail techs who seem to believe if they file around the bottom of your finger enough times they're doing it right. They are not. It got so bad that I took my question to Reddit, which is how I ended up booking at this place, which sadly was no different. When I sat down (twenty minutes late) I was informed by the nail tech that she does Russian manicures, but doesn't cut with a scissor. Immediate red flag but I had already paid in full and needed the disaster set I walked in with removed. This person then proceeded to not follow any of the steps of a Russian manicure. No orangewood stick. No flame bit to lift the dead skin. A jagged cut around the cuticle with oil added to hide it. Abrasions where my live skin was filed with the ball bit. I was then informed that I would need to pay an additional $60 for the hard gel application. To be fair, it was applied nicely and the shaping was great. It just wasn't a Russian manicure. If it had been billed as a hard gel manicure and left at that it would have been fine. The gaslighting at the end - I was told I should book hard gel fills moving forward because I don't "need" a Russian manicure - was the icing atop a very shitty cake. If you don't know what you're looking for, this is the place for you. The vibe and aesthetic of the salon is nice. If you're looking for an actual Russian manicure, keep looking.

Apparently tomorrow I'm going to my usual Salon to get them fixed. I had higher hopes because I really enjoyed this Salon.Everyone was wonderful including the kid that did my nails but the outcome was more expensive than my usual Salon and i loved this place opened at 9:30 instead of noon on a Sunday.
