Chair massager is so nice strong & soothing at this salon so a big plus! It literally shake you! Staff is always friendly and accommodating- I called last minute and was able to get me in for a pedi so I can wear open toe for an event tonight Place is neat and clean inside and asks customer to wash and sanitize hand before picking a nail polish color. Also, Flexive (sic) glass in between staff & client observes health & safety! Will likely return! read more

Nails always break. They have horrible customer service and surprise costs at end of service.

I had much similar experiences to some other reviews on here. The salon had bugs crawling on the floor. I spent my entire time swatting nats away. It was so stuffy and hot in there, it wouldn't have hurt to open the door for some fresh air. The woman was absolutely reckless with the cuticle nipper and finally I told her no more since I was left with 3 gashes. No shaping is done, just cut and file. Most of my nails were crooked. Polish was fine though. Certainly not worth $50. Closer to $35. I would def not come back. read more

I have been going here for a while now and its a great place for your nails and eyebrow waxing. I always have a nice relaxing foot pedicure and the dip manicures are great. Everyone who works there is very friendly and do a great job. The prices are very reasonable too compared to some other salons in the area and the staff is great. I usually make an appointment but they are very flexible with walk in too unless its a busy time. read more

I have been coming for a while. My favorite technician is Vi because she does designs like the pictures I show her. I like that, even though I have my favorite technician, the ladies work together to get the job done! read more

The nails I received were nothing like what I requested. Despite showing a picture, I ended up with almond nails instead of the basic square shape and simple French tips I asked for. The technician was rude, dismissive, and unwilling to fix her mistakes. When I pointed out the issue, she argued with me instead of resolving it and eventually refused to continue working on my nails. The manager had to step in to fix her mess, but by then, it was too late to correct everything without starting over. I even offered to pay extra for a full redo instead of a refill, but they refused, citing time constraints on *my* end, not theirs. There was no apology, no discount, and no accountability. I won't be coming back. read more

So what I'm not gonna do is post feet pics LOL but ***AVOID*** this salon for pedicures. They skip the basics of the basic steps and the finished work is horrible. Let's start with the fact, their massage chairs don't work. The nail tech didn't turn it on for me so I assumed she forgot but I pressed the power button and... nothing. Second, most salons, if not all, CLEAN your toenails. They use tools to clean the sides and under each toenail. No such thing here. Lol. Not to mention, they don't shape your toenails. They just cutdown with the nail clippers and use a file to smooth the ends but that's it. I noticed several toenails were cut crooked and asked her to shape them but... it was a fail. All of my toenails were crooked so I had to come home and shape them myself. There was also a bunch of excess polish so I had to file/peel the gel off my skin. Last but damn sure not the least, they don't remove the bottom plate from the LED light so they literally have your feet ON the plate. If they use the same lights for manicures... well... that's just gross to have your hands chillin where someone just stuck their feet. LOL. Clean feet or not, no thanks. Overall, the experience here sucked. I was hoping to kick back, relax, and enjoy but it was everything but that. It was more stressful than anything. The salon looks somewhat maintained but sanitary practices don't seem like it's a thing here. read more

I WISH I HAD GONE THERE FIRST!!!! After agonizing over choosing a nail salon and going elsewhere on a friend's suggestion, I was not happy with what my freshly done acrylics looked like, so 2 days later I went here on a whim to see if they could fix them. BEST DECISION I HAVE EVER MADE. I explained what happened at the other salon and asked what they could do to make them look better. TAMMY was absolutely amazing! She soaked off the ones I had done at the other nail salon and started from scratch to give me with I had envisioned. Everyone there was so amazing and kind AND my nails have never looked this good in my life! I'm so excited that I finally found the perfect nail salon for me! read more

Big shout out to Leanne. She took care of my mom's feet and we got the luxury pedicure option for my mom since she recently had a surgery. She needed that extra oil massage and relaxation. For myself, I got the regular pedicure. It was a great relaxing time at this salon. The employees are super nice and they really took care of us. Specially since my mom needed that extra handle with care kind of attention. I love getting my nails done with my mom and this place is really close to my sister's house and it was totally worth it. They offer drinks if you want anything while getting the services done. They let us do walk in and we didn't have to wait because we went fairly early. You can call to make appointments for busier times like the weekend. ~ read more

I came here upon a recommendation from a friend and researching on Yelp for a new nail place. I made an appointment for a gel manicure after a confusing phone call. On the phone, I asked for Randi for my appointment and they just put her on the phone, where she proceeded to tell me that she's booked until 6:30pm on the day I wanted. I understood since it was holiday season. She assured me that "someone will take care of me" and to come in at 1:30pm. On to my appointment. I got there and they gave me a huge binder of sample colors to choose from! I was pleasantly surprised. After I chose my color, the manicurist named Jenny started working on my nails. What disappointed me was the color that I chose was black and a top coat on it. I thought it was actually a holographic nail polish since that's how it looked when it was painted. She did several coats of the black and one coat of the holographic top coat. It wasn't as thick as normal gel manicures, which was nice. The only other thing was that the water I put my hands in was cold water and didn't have any soap or anything in it. She was efficient and fast - I was out in 45 minutes. Also, they were insanely busy!! Randi, who I called about, was there and had back to back appointments. I gave her $7 in cash tip and the manicure was $30 (no tax!). Not a bad price. First picture is the day of. The polish wasn't painted on evenly/nicely as I'd like and the cuticles were a little rushed. Second picture is THREE DAYS after my manicure. It already chipped! Gel is supposed to last at least 2 weeks. I will be looking somewhere else for nails. read more

Go somewhere else! I came to this salon religiously every week and a half for nearly a year and have never been satisfied with the service I received or the work I've had done. Before deciding to leave I tried various nail techs here with the same results. My gel manicure only lasted on average, a week and a half. Sometimes not lasting more than a week before it started chipping. I don't know if it's the type of gel (I've tried them all) or the technique used (they refuse to take their time and cover the entire nail) but the gel never lasts. They'll then try to upsell you to the dip powder for more money. I never tried that but going to other salons my gel lasts for 2 1/2 to 3 weeks. Also, you can make an appointment but still end up waiting 30 mins for service. It's unprofessional and annoying. It seems like they just care about numbers which is why the service is bad and the nail jobs are bad... they're simply rushed. Nice salon with bells and whistles but the service sucks and so does their work. My opinion, save yourself the headache and go somewhere else. Go to a salon where the quality of work matches the decor. read more

I LOOOOVE this place! Tammy is so personable and amazing with manicures. She is the only person that I trust to do my nails. When she goes out of town for vacation, if I need to get a fill-in, I just take the gel off and wait until she returns so we can start the process all over. Yes, that is how serious it is. The pedicures are lovely, but I am not as particular about who does my feet, as I am with my nails. However, I would recommend Mya for your feet. read more

When I requested a manicure I expected to soak my nails and clean my cuticles etc but that wasn't the case. When I requested and showed the photo inspiration the tech kept saying gel was better than acrylic and said she can make it happen and then she said she couldn't do the white tips how I wanted and after 2 hours being there I just said do my nails like my toes. I'm super disappointed and my husband doesn't like my nails and honestly I don't either. I wanted a classic look and what I got is totally opposite of classic. My cuticles look awful and after paying $125 I left super annoyed and disappointed! read more

I used to love this place, but yesterday I went for a mani/pedi and the pedicure was nice, but the manicure was awful. I paid $45 for dip manicure, which is normal. Only thing she did was file and dip my hands in the powder. No cuticles cut or any of the other services that normally comes along with a normal manicure. When she massaged my hands, she did not use lotion. I have NEVER experienced that. It felt weird and awful. Afterwards I had to ask for lotion. I can't believe I paid $45 for that! My students can do a better job than this lady. I don't mind paying, but I would like services. Funny thing is the pedicure was cheaper and I felt like I should have paid more. My pedicure was great. read more

Big shout-out to Tammy and her crew! This is my the third visit since this virus shutdown. They are on point! I feel very comfortable and protected while getting my nails and waxing done. Gloves, masks, hand sanitizer and shields for all stations and they make sure all customers are wearing masks also (they even provide for you, if you've forgotten). Highly recommend! Keep up the good work everyone! read more

I realized I was overcharged for a regular mani and pedi.... I was charged $45. I wish they were honest about what is advertised. If I ever go back, I'll have to pull out the menu before paying. read more

I've tried to love it and I did at first. But I keep getting the same technician that slips while she's filing and gashes my fingers. I told her I hated the color and she said next time pick another color. Next I said cut them a little and I ended up with stubs. Will never be coming back read more

I took my mom for manicure and pedicure at Radiance on Mother's day. It's second day today and her nails color got changed. You can see vanity pink was the original color and her right hand completely different color now. (FYI: She haven't done any household chores except lunch and dinner) I got blood cherry color on my mani and pedi and as one can see in the picture color finishing is not that good. I paid $190 in total for such treatment? I was regular customer here since 8 months but now I would not recommend this place to anyone and I am specially disappointed when it was my gift to her on Mother's day. read more

My visit was a spontaneous midweek pick-me-up. It is the second manicure of my life, my first non-Groupon. The facilities were clean and inviting. I called ahead in the early afternoon for a 6:30pm appt for two regular manicures, and my friend and I arrived on time with no wait. We took a moment to choose our colors, unrushed. The technicians were kind and gentle. I had a lovely convo with mine and she gave me advice to continue to call ahead, since they get very busy sometimes and there have been long wait times for those who do not call ahead or show up ahead of time. A regular manicure is $15, which I never see. It included a sugar hand scrub. The service was thorough; I chose a red nail polish and my technician really took her time and ensured my cuticles were impeccable. My service took about 45 min, whereas my friend's took a half hour because her color was less difficult with the opacity and smudginess. We had a wonderful time and will be returning. read more

I have been coming to Radiance for a few months now and each time I go it gets better and better. Jenny does amazing designs. I get SNS and they always last 3 weeks or more. Also the technicians at Radiance protect your nails when they do removal of SNS...I tried other nearby nail salons and they all used the drill to take off SNS which I find to be damaging to my nails. If you are new to area or looking for a new nail spot try this place. If you are looking for a design be sure to schedule with Jenny! read more

This is the rudest nail salon I have ever step foot in. My granddaughter asked for a dip, pedi, and eyebrow wax. She was taken immediately. I asked for a plain mani. Too busy, too busy.

I wish I could give them a better rating. Had a SpaFinder giftcard and called around to different salons to see if they accepted. Spoke to 2 different people on the phone and they confirmed that they took it. GREAT!! ON OUR WAY AND EXCITED!! :) Drove 30 minutes to them and when we arrived everyone just looked at us confused. "Umm, yes, you can help us. We need 2 pedicures". We were asked to sign in, pick a color, and have a seat. As they called us back to sit, I re-asked if they accepted SpaFinders GC and this other nail technician answered so rudely almost screaming at us that they did not accept it. ARE YOU SERIOUS?! AND WHAT HAPPENS IF I DIDNT ASK IN STORE AND GOT THE SERVICES DONE?? ANYWAYS.... I told her that I spoke to 2 people and they both said the salon accepts it. Boy was she rude-- "WHAT?! We accept this?? No we dont!!" Then looked around to the other technicians, "WE TAKE THIS?! NO WE DONT, RIGHT?!" At this point, even if they did, I would have walked out right away... mind you, they had clients everywhere with shocked faces. I dont think I would ever come here even to pay out of pocket or with a Gift Card, service was wayyy rude. read more

I was shopping around for a nail salon and finally settled on Radiance. Well manicured nails and feet are very important to me and I have to say I'm pretty picky when it comes to my nails. I think I found a permanent home here. Prices are reasonable and the work that they do here lasted longer than the other few dozens of nails salons I've been to. Anna does an amazing job every time, and I mean really, every single time, she does my nails and pedicures just the way I want them. She is attentive to details and would never rush to finish the job. I had tried Tammy as well, and she is equally amazing when it comes to nail work. I would recommend booking ahead for both! read more

Just visited this location to get a pedicure and it was a total of 4 women getting services with around 6-7 workers I can see. Whomever at the front table proceeded to tell me they was busy as I proceed to look around at the nearly empty building.

Overpriced for the quality of work they do. They "removed" my previous set and started from scratch, but I could see under the new acrylic the old one. Another thing is, good luck trying to get them to sit still while they do your nails. My technician stood up several times, picked up the phone, welcomed new clients, and it just seems a little rude. But at the end, I guess the reason why I wouldn't return is because I didn't like the way they did my nails. I paid too much for a semi-acceptable job :( read more

Definitely not going back. read more

The first time I went to Radiance Nails, I had just been turned down from another nail place over in Stone Ridge Center (maybe is just me, but I think that 30 minutes before closing time is still ok for a pedicure...) Frustrated after a long day of work and in need of a pedi, I went to Radiance. They were about to close too, but they kindly took me in (I mean, THAT'S customer service, showing their clientele they want their business). The lady did and excellent job, and was very nice... I just went last Sunday, where I was greeted with smiles all over. I didn't have to wait, even though I was a walk-in. Lynn did an excellent job doing my pedi ($25) and I recommend getting the waxing for the feet... it leaves them feeling very smooth for only $3 more dollars... I left happy, and pampered. read more

Let me start with the service; I scheduled an appointment at 3:45 and had to wait 20 minutes for the lady I scheduled with to finish up with another lady. After she rushed to do my nails because another lady arrived 15 mins after me(keep in mind I was doing my nails which takes over an hour) my nail color came out blotchy and rough ALSO uneven lengths. They tried to fix it by putting more coats of polish which made my nails extra bulky. AFTERWARDS I was ready to just pay & never come back again. The lady tries to OVERCHARGE ME & STILL argued with me knowing that I just spent 2 HOURS there and was very unsatisfied with the outcome of my nails. After she began to talk over me and finally agreed to bring it down to the REGULAR price she repeatedly told me that next time it's the price I told you. All I can say is DO NOT go to Radiance nails. read more

I did a drop-in at 1:30 pm on a Thursday. I need a pedicure and a gel fill. It had only been 11 days since my last pedi--the first of the season, so I knew my feet were in pretty good shape. They guy who worked on my hands was friendly, but not talkative, which I actually like in a manicurist. I come to get the work done, not to find a new bestie, KWIM? I love the final shape and color of my gel nails...HOWEVER...the nails are wavy and I had to point out to him when he pronounced them "done" that six of my nails had bumps in them! I thought I noticed that his brush wasn't clean when he went to apply the top coat of gel. Sure enough, there were debris particles trapped in the gel. He did a half-hearted job of buffing the tops of those nails, then applied a sealer. I still have a grit bump in one nail, plus most of my nails have a wavy appearance. I just don't think he puts much attention to finessing the job--the details of making sure the gel is laying down evenly. The shape and length are fine and the airbrush tips--which he was SUPER anal about--are great. The pedi was OK...the water was tepid and they left me soaking in it for 15 minutes while I waited for the tech (not the same one) to finish another client. The chair vibration was broken, so my butt got sore before the pedicure was finished. My toes look great, though, and my legs and feet feel pretty great. All said and done, isn't that what you pay for? $35 for a "luxury" pedi that leaves you feeling good seems a fair price. I am shopping around for a nail parlor. I got the first mani-pedi at Hollywood in South Riding--not going back there--and am still looking. BTW...take cash for tips. They will not let you put gratuities on the credit card. read more

Phenomenal experience! During Covid-19 they have been extra cautious - face and table shields, constantly sterilizing equipment, tables and hands and showing only a limited amount of customers at a time.
