Nice looking place but nail tech removed gel from nails incorrectly and damaged nails with grinding tool. Nails used to be extremely strong and now are thin and fragile breaking constantly. Luckily they have been growing out and hoping once the thin damaged nails are replaced by new growth they'll be better. Do NOT recommend this establishment. read more

Been coming for about a year now and it's always quick and easy! Hard to find good design techs these days and they do it well!!

Just moved to the area from midtown and reallllllyy wanted to love this place. I've gone twice now and they've been out of my initial color both times so then i have to scramble to find a replacement color. The staff is nice enough and for the most part they are thorough with explaining the charges HOWEVER never in my life have i been charged extra for my natural nail length. These aren't even long and it was an extra $5. I hope this isn't the next tens within nail salons.bseriously considering just doing sns on my own read more

Pulse Nail Spa - Sns on natural nail. Charges an extra $5 for my natural nail length. They aren't even long. - Nail Salons Near Me - Buford, Georgia

Terrible salon! Hannah was the worst. She cant even do ombre nails. Colors didnt blend and shaping was trash. She had the nerve to throw a temper tantrum when I pointed out her horrible work. Do they really think Im going to leave paying $120+ for below basic nails? I was in this salon for over 3 hrs. Never going to this aweful establishment again. People beware! They will nickle and dime you to death. $48 dollars is what their menu says for my nails. The register said $78. Where did the extra $30 come from???? They said, " Oh your nails are long." Huh?? My nails are normal length. So, I guess if your nails are longer than stubs will be charged an extra $30. If I could give 0 stars, I would. The managers were just nasty when it was time to pay. The lady Hannah huffed and puffed around the salon for 40 minutes while another tech was fixing her trash. She was better but gave a bit of 'tude' as well. She has the nerve to say, If your so picky why dont you go to one tech.... Huh?? Im not picky but Im not settling for garbage work either. Non lumpy no mishapen nails. Is that too much to ask of a "professional"? My overall experience was horrible. I will never go to a salon with basic techs who cant even do basic ombre and pay top dollar. I would post the pic of my nails but they are truly horrific. Buford Beware. Find a better salon. These people are money hungry and care nothing about their patrons. Their only objective is to extract money from your wallet and do so by giving you the most basic lumpy nails. read more

I passed up several salons not wearing masks before coming to this one. I was thankful to see all guidelines were being followed. They took my temperature and has me wash my hands. Everyone had on masks and were socially distancing. Fast friendly service and very nice salon. I will be back! read more

Please believe me when i say I don't ever leave reviews but this place deserved for me to leave one. They charged me an extra $20 to do a FRENCH TIP. No warning that it would be an extra $20 to do a basic one color. I would have happily paid it had the nails been perfect but please refer to the pictures I've added. The French tip is crooked, the sides of the nails are bumpy and not filed down. When I pointed this out to the male that checked me out he didn't even try to fix them or offer a discount. He very literally shrugged his shoulders and said "well, this is our price". This is why more and more ppl are going to home based nail techs and ditching the nail salon. read more

Nice clean nail salon. Bella did my nails and I'm on week 2, with them looking flawless. I love the chic modern look of the salon. The employees were nice and helped me pick my color. read more

Unfortunately, this isn't a great review. I have been numerous times to this salon and almost every single appointment was running late. And I don't mean late as in, "She will be with you in 20 min", I mean late as in "she doesn't have time to do your nails today" even after I mad the appointment a week in advance. Their prices are high, which if the service was exemplary, I wouldn't mind paying. However, it is not. I will not go back. Make sure you call before your appointment to see if it's still a good time! read more

We have been here twice now and both times have been great. I love that they take reservations and they actually work on you at the reserved time slot. You also can check in on an iPad when you come in and at this time everyone is wearing a mask. The place is large but it doesn't feel crowded. You do wash your hands before you get started which a lot of places don't do but I appreciate it. They do all sorts of nails and colors. I just did a natural nail manicure the first time and this past time I did the SNS powder dip on my natural nails. Both times I have been very pleased and will be back. I have gotten a pedicure as well and it was great. They have options for more massages, other treatments, but so far I have just done the basic pedi for myself and my hubby. My hubby went with me and also enjoys it and doesn't feel out of place here. I highly recommend this place. read more

My first time coming to this place and I fell in love! My go-to nail salon closed down and I was a bit skeptical trying new places in fear of getting an infection. I saw the gorgeous nails and reviews and I just HAD to come here! Amazing staff, and amazing work! I've never felt so pretty before haha even Gato likes my nails! read more

I got my nails done last Friday for my wedding the next day and it was a wonderful experience! I brought a group of 7 girls and we all got mani/pedi's. We were all able to sit next to each other and enjoyed a very clean and relaxing atmosphere. I'm posting a picture from a week later and my SNS nails still look amazing! I asked for almond shaped, ombré dip with nail art that was a combination of a Pinterest photo and my wedding dress and it turned out perfectly! The nail technician was very talented. I definitely recommend Pulse Nail Spa! read more

Worst experience ever. I got my nails done December 24th, by January 5th, 12 DAYS LATER I had 8 BROKEN NAILS!!!!!! Karen did my nails and I'm sorry but she was awful. I started at 9:40 am that day and i was in my car by 10:41am, already way too fast for nails that all had designs. She also made me bleed on my pinky nail but was not too mad about that because i know it wasn't on purpose. Its crazy to me because 10 of those days i was on vacation so i wasn't doing anything heavy or wild for them to break and the other two days i worked on a computer. So again no reason to break that fast. On top of that I paid $80. For so many nails to break in such little time is ridiculous. in the picture you'll see them. I did go fix the first nail that broke but every day was another one so I just gave up. NEVER GOING TO KAREN AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

I came to get my prom nails removed and i've never had such a horrible experience. My nails were covered in stones and were stuck to my nails-- they used a nail clipper to just cut the ends and INSTEAD OF USING A REGULAR ACETONE SOAK AND MECHANICAL FILER... they just pulled the plastic off my nail off my nail. Literally all my nails are lifted up and weak. If I wanted to take my nails off unprofessionally, I could have just done this myself. Came for the service, left with damaged nails. will not be returning. read more

I have been going to Pulse for a couple of years but the last time was it. I received an SNS manicure and about 1 1/2 weeks later my nail polish had chipped off. Went in to get it repaired and they tried to get me to get my nails done over. I told her no and I just wanted the one nail fixed. I could tell she was talking about me because I saw other techs looking at my nail that was being repaired. I got the nail repaired and left when the guy at the front came after me saying I owed $5. I asked how could that be when it had not been that long since getting my nails done. He said that is what he was told. I went back in paid the $5 and told them I will find another nail salon. For their mistake and $5, they lost a customer. read more

Hands down my best experience ever in a salon, I had a acrylic with gel set and a pedicure and I took my mother for a deluxe mani and pedi and we both loved it! The service was amazing, my nail tech, Vanessa did an amazing job with the cuticles and my nails look very clean, straight and in perfect condition, they did an amazing job for my mother. We both have ingrown nail problems on our toes and both of the techs did an amazing job without hurting us or cutting too deep. The place was very clean, sanitary and we will be coming again here soon! read more

It's the lack of customer service for me. From the moment I saw the front desk lady ask two of the techs that were relaxing to service me...their side eye was the first clue! Then when they came over they kept asking me to get up and move. Each time I got settled, I was asked to move again. Then my drink cup spilled over..the tech behind me seemed totally annoyed that the drink fell. So I said no thanks! I returned to the wait area to wait for my relative. The front desk person asked no questions...she had no care about the what or why. My money spends anywhere and PNS is not the place! read more

I suffer with lung issues and cannot wear a mask for medical reasons. I have uncomfortably complied with the mask rule the few times I've been to this salon, needing breathing treatments after each appointment. Prior to today's appointment with my daughter at this nail salon, I called and spoke with the owner to ask if masks were still required now that the mandates are over, explaining to her that I have a medical condition and will not wear a mask. I explained that if this was a problem, I would simply go somewhere else. She said she understood the mandate has lifted and that, in fact, she does not wear a mask everywhere she goes anymore either. Once I arrived, I got a bait-and-switch job with the owner and one of the nail techs applying pressure to me to put on a mask. They told me that they had a nasty customer to raise an issue and give them a bad review recently because another customer wasn't wearing a mask, and they were afraid of bad reviews. By this point, they were causing a scene, pulling my daughter into the discussion and creating an embarrassing and awkward situation for both of us. I explained that this is why I called and had this discussion over the phone, that I am a customer with rights, too. Shots are everywhere. Numbers are down. Immunities are up. If you are that ignorant and afraid of a virus with a 99% survival rate, then stay home, do some research, and quit infringing on others' rights because of your irrational fear. Meanwhile, I walked out and took my business elsewhere. This business will receive no more of my hard earned money. I will not support dishonesty or duplicity. And yes, they really are very expensive compared to other salons in the area and, except for the lady at the front, quite unfriendly. read more

Nice salon. The manager was pretty friendly. Had an appointment for 12 and my technician didn't start my service for about 45 minutes to an hour of me waiting. My pedicure was okay. My fill in was also okay. My main issue is that my gel has peeled after less than a week. I get my nails done very often and this is not something I go through frequently. I understand things happen but with the price of my nails as well as prior positive reviews, I definitely expected better. read more

I dropped in on a Thursday afternoon and everyone was really friendly and helpful. The place is beautiful, clean, and spacious. Definitely a location to bring friends. I had fake glue-on nails and I hated them. Luckily Cris was patient and careful, and was able to get all the gross glue off. My nails were in pretty bad shape, but Cris made them look so much better when he was done. They are welcoming and ask you about doing other services, but aren't pushy. They have an extensive menu of services. I am planning on going back and try some of their fancy pedicure options! The gel manicure I got was $30 (although they are running a 20% special so it was $24) which is at the high end of what I normally pay, but worth it considering the entire experience. And they have wine! Would recommend to anyone who wants some relaxing "me" time. read more

Sooo despite the reviews i thought i would give it a shot. Most nail salons are rated bad on yelp anyways. I was greeted but kind of rudely. After the receptionist realized i wanted more of a pricey service i got a half smile. I got into my chair the the gentleman who did my feet was so kind. He did an amazing pedicure. I got the rose delight and it was worth every penny. I felt so pampered. My hand nail tech was on the other hand a but gruff. Fake half smiling. I was trying to be super polite because i know how badly nail techs are treated. I had a friend who was one for a very long time. She did an okay-ish job. I wasn't a fan of how my color turned out but I'm thinking the top coat they use is bad, or maybe the gel color i picked was expiring. It looks a bit blotchy. I'm not one to complain and since my pedicure turned out really nice i just let it go. If i return it'll be to get the rose delight again. But i don't know if it'll be worth the drive. They also do not take out ingrown nails. read more

First time customer and experience was just ok. I filled out a very detailed online appointment form on services I wanted to only be greeted and asked what I wanted. I repeat what I want to only be asked again when I got seated what I wanted. Services begin and while my pedicure was nice, my Rose petal manicure with SNS never happened. I wanted the full experience but was given just the SNS. No cuticle service, soaked hands etc. seems like ever since SNS and gel came about, nail places forget the standard manicure step. I shouldn't have to repeat 3 times and still not get what I asked for. I can do my dip at home, I want you to groom my nails! read more

I went to make an appointment via phone call, and after I told the woman who answered what I wanted she hung up on me. This would have been the first time I'd be going, but will never now due to the rude woman on the phone. read more

So this was my go to salon for a while until my fav nail tech no longer was working here. I still gave it a chance and was very disappointed. The lady wouldn't listen to me with how I wanted the shape of my nail. She kept insisting that they all are even when they were not. My nails also started chipping the 2nd day of my SNS. The staffs always been friendly but I have not been happy with the last 2 times of going here with my services. read more

I was recommended by a friend and gave this salon a try. Upon arrival, the receptionist and Kara was very inviting. The atmosphere is very calm and clean. I had SNS and the class pedicure done. The pedicure was great but my nails were okay. Vanessa said my nails, she wasn't really friendly but got the job done. My nails are uneven and you can see the spot on some it where it did not cover fully. read more

I would not recommend EVER coming to this place. I don't know how they have any good reviews with their poor customer service and outrageous prices. I have gone to much better nail salons and gotten the same exact things I did here, and at most they charged me $65. This place charged me $90 for the service I got together. And when I first came in they didn't have anyone there to do acrylic nails, so I walked out to my car, and the guy at the front desk came back out saying they have someone now. When they were breaking down the prices for me, the were charging me extra for the length and that my nails were square. The tips they first put on were twice the fucking length of what I have now, and since they had to be cut down they, are already square. That makes no fucking sense to me!!! And then they charged me $30 for the design on my nails. I completely understand that a design will cost extra, as every time I have gone to any nail salon, I always get a design and multiple colors. The design of my nails is not worth $30 as the nail tech did not even do that good of a job on them. If I'm paying $30 for a design, it better be perfect, which it was not. And as I was leaving and finding out that it is going to be $90, and he had to have someone else check the price for him, he asks to take a picture of my nails to send to the manager to check the price, AFTER I have already handed him a $100 bill to pay for this. ABSOLUTELY FUCKING RIDICULOUS!!!!! read more

The experience itself was okay but the quality of the service was not. I got an acrylic set done (basic white and coffin shape) and it didn't even last two weeks before the nails popped off! Not only that but online the price says $32 for acrylic set and I was charged $53 and when asking they said the color and shape was an up charge! Normally I wouldn't mind but it was shady and not good business to upcharge by $20 for something that was so simple and basic not designs at all! Was hoping to bring a bachelorette group here since the facility and location is great but will not be returning! read more

I have been looking for a nail salon that can do these type of nails. This is the 1st place I have found that did exactly what I asked for and could do more than just basic nails.

I also love that they use timers when massaging. read more

This has been my go-to salon since they opened. I come every 2-3 weeks at the same exact time without a doubt. The staff here is very nice and the salon is beautiful. However, slowly the experience has declined. There have been multiple times now where I book an appointment with a specific tech only to arrive at the salon and find out they are not even working the day of my appointment. I've gladly rescheduled, without a fuss but this has become unprofessional and careless. This is HIGHLY disappointing since this salon is only a couple mins away. Needless to say, after years of coming here, bringing friends and family, as well as referring multiple other people , I will not be returning. The lack of consideration for long time clients is concerning and Kara/ other management seem to be losing the standard of care they previously held. I'm extremely disappointed to have to find a new salon but having this happen so frequently is absolutely unacceptable. read more

It was my first time being there, and I love the i'll ambiance of the place. I went there for a pedicure and a full set, but they decided that I just needed a fill in. the service was good,I had A hiccup where I didn't tell the technician that I wanted it to be square so she left the shape as it was . So I had to come back and let a new technician do the shape. A couple days have passed and it started to chip badly so I went back and due to their policy they fixed it for free. A couple days later again it started to chip worst. read more

I visited this nail spa on a Friday morning and asked if walk-in's were accepted. I checked in and was seated immediately. The gentleman that did my SNS nails literally either cut me with nail drill or left me with severe nail file burns. All my cuticles peeled for the next week and my nails are already lifting and cracking. My service was less than expected and I will not be returning. read more

Took my daughter here today since they came recommended. Bad choice! She had "Rebecca" and left me say this person needs to step up her game. She cut my daughter's cuticles in so many places that she was bleeding but didn't stop and also just wiped blood away with her bare hands. Rebecca need to NOT be licensed or step up her game to a professional level. read more

I understand life happens, I understand in businesses workers might call out and you won't have enough people but what upset me was I waited for two hours and I kept seeing customers who came after me get their services done before me. I asked for a pedicure and a manicure Aside from waiting two hours in the pedicure chair, if the only nail technicians that we're available at the moment where for manicures I wouldn't have mind getting my manicure done first and than my pedicure. It just bothered me that people who asked for a manicure as well would get attended and have their services started when I got there way before they did. The staff could have started my manicure while I waited for someone to do my pedicure instead of waiting two hours just to wait for someone in general. read more
