I went in for a pedicure and they took me right back. I didn't have much time and needed just the basic pedicure. The ambiance was very nice, the entire place was clean... even the bathroom! The lady that did my toes was quiet but friendly. It was a bit too warm in the shop so I asked if they could adjust the temp and they did with no hesitation. I will definitely return.

I FINALLY FOUND IT FOLKS!!!…read more I've been going to Refresh Nail Spa since winter 2023, after searching for salons that offer drill-free manicures and focus on natural nail care like IBX treatments. I ended up finding Bernadette, an independent nail tech who works there--and she's been an absolute gem. While she does use a drill (contrary to what I originally searched for), she's incredibly skilled, gentle, and precise--so much so that it never damages my nails. Her technique is both efficient and mindful, striking the perfect balance between machine and hand filing. Initially, I was getting regular gel manicures, but Bernadette truly cares about nail health, and she suggested switching to builder gel (BIAB). It was a game-changer. Builder gel doesn't require soaking off and allows for continuous fills--meaning you can build on top of your last set without compromising nail integrity. Since switching, my nails have grown so long, strong, and healthy, and a single BIAB manicure can last me up to 6 weeks! Beyond nails, Bernadette is a wonderful person--easy to talk to, knowledgeable, and deeply caring. She also specializes in pedicures for clients with diabetes or other health conditions, which speaks volumes about her expertise and sensitivity to clients' unique needs. If you're looking for a thoughtful, health-conscious nail experience, I highly recommend Refresh Nail Spa and Bernadette in particular. My monthly visits have become something I genuinely look forward to.

**APPOINTMENT ONLY** I have been blessed with Bernadette at…read moreRefresh Nail Bar for over 2 years, and I couldn't be more thankful for her! She is a delight in every way--knowledgeable, gentle, and truly dedicated to her clients. Bernadette goes above and beyond to meet individual needs, making each client feel like a priority in the most sanitary atmosphere. After moving from the West Coast, I wanted to continue using non-toxic products, specifically Light Elegance. Bernadette not only consulted with my previous artists but also went the extra mile to purchase everything I needed to continue my nail care routine seamlessly. Her dry pedicures, which are actually certified medical pedicures, are nothing short of transformative. Her work speaks volumes, and so does she--always professional and attentive. Bernadette is in high demand, and for good reason. If you want to experience top-tier nail care, join the waiting list as she is appointment only. I'm very grateful to have found such a talented and caring nail artist. Highly recommend!

I discovered this salon in July 2025 and was initially very impressed. Even though I'm from…read moreBaltimore and am temporarily residing in the Midwest, I made a point to visit MyAllure Nail Spa whenever I was home. My first few visits were positive, which is why I'm giving three stars rather than fewer. Each visit, I had a different technician. I typically get polygel with a design, and the results were generally solid until my third visit on 1/3/26. After calling about 45 minutes ahead, I was seen, but while the design was nice, the base of the polygel set was poorly done (the tech was also rushing for an upcoming appointment after me). One nail had a visible hole in the product, which was patched rather than properly smoothed and reinforced. Less than a week later, another nail cracked across the middle. On 1/11/26, I called to ask about availability for a repair and was told to come in. After checking in, I waited about 30 minutes before being told it would be another hour. During that time, I overheard a technician grouchily tell the front desk, "Just tell her to come back another time," while I was standing nearby. That felt extremely rude and unprofessional, especially given that I had called ahead, was told to come in, and received a confirmation text. I explained that if there was no availability, I should have been told upfront. I had driven 35 minutes from Baltimore and could not wait longer due to a flight back to the Midwest. I really liked this salon, but the combination of subpar workmanship on my last set, being turned away after calling ahead, and the dismissive behavior makes it hard for me to return. Please be honest about availability so clients don't waste their time. The cracked nail eventually split completely and injured the skin beneath my nail bed. This salon is on the expensive side, so to pay all that $$$ and not get service that matches just doesn't work.

PLEASE READ!! BEWARE. Columbia Crossing Center…read more This place is the worst nail salon ever. They conned my 12-year-old niece to get things that she didn't understand or even had the money to pay for; I sent my niece in to ask them how much it would be for a basic pedicure with regular polish and a full set with get polish for her nails. They told her $60. so, I told her she can get them done. When I came back to get my niece, she said she paid $127, She had her toes done which they claimed to use dipping powder and that's not what she asked for. They claimed that her big toenail was crooked which was a lie and said they put a fake nail on there. My niece said no nails was put on her feet or fingers. Why would you continue to add things to a child service when they told you what they were there for? Her fingernails were just painted, and no acrylic or tips was applied to her nails which was supposed to be a full set. it was all a mess. They claimed that they did a full set to her toes after making up all these lies and prices, they couldn't verify. (I have never heard of a full set to toes lol) omg it was a mess. my poor niece was so sad on her birthday because of this. I told them that was not what she asked for and that was too much money for something so simple. they refuse to remove the stuff off her toes and fingers and refund me or give me a percentage of my money back. My niece had to call her dad for more money to pay for this crap once they were done and gave her a price of $127. I wasn't aware of all of this until I picked her up. This is bad service and they need to be exposed. I know how nail salons try to get over so that's why I sent her in there for a price before they got started and we were still scammed. Pictures below. The work was sloppy and they cut my niece finger.
