I pick at my nails so my thumbs have this weird bump on them, which she offered to smooth down. I asked for a French tip. She painted 2 different colors on 2 of my nails so I could see which base I wanted for my French tip and helped me make a decision. :) She asked how thick I wanted the tip and made sure I liked it before continuing, with offers to change anything I didn't want. Nai was super sweet and made me feel completely comfortable. I'd highly recommend her services and will definitely be back!!

I've booked two haircuts here since being a student and have loved both! Don't let the fact that…read morethey are "in training" steer you away from going. Both times my hair has received excellent care! At my first appointment, she spent close to half an hour trimming all my dead ends off and helping me start fresh with me on my hair journey. I can now say she is at her own salon in Briarwood mall! My second stylist (about a year and a half later) helped trim me up again and decided to style my natural wavy hair (I normally straighten it every day because I don't know how to style it curly). She walked me through the process and it turned out great. She told me she had about a month left of her program and graduates in November! Booking online is super easy and I've never had trouble making an appointment or rescheduling. I've actually booked 15 minutes before a cut because I was desperate and they had plenty of availabilities, but they do recommend you reschedule 24 hours in advance. I'm extremely impressed with the friendliness, service, and atmosphere here. It is clean and modern, smells good, and has a comfy waiting area. Because the stylists are in school, they have a supervisor check the cuts to make sure you like them at the end which is something I appreciate. Prices are extremely affordable- $18 includes a cut, wash, condition, and style. If you are a student and show your ID, it's an extra 10% off. There's also is no option to tip, although I did ask about one. Will be taking advantage of my student status as long as I can, but still, $18 is hard to beat!

I booked an appointment for a scalp treatment and massage on 2/13/24 for the appointment to be on 2/23/24. I live in Livonia, a 30 minute drive both ways. I get to my appointment and I'm sitting in the chair waiting for my appointment to start when the worker comes up to me and says "I'm sorry, we have a worker on disability and cannot perform your massage" I'm sorry what? I'm literally sitting here waiting for it right now, I just drove 30 minutes, you couldn't have canceled before?! She says there's a different treatment I can get, it's a "stress relieving facial" and I'm thinking okay, for my inconvenience, it's on the house? Wrong. It's 20% off that's the best she can do. I ask, what about me driving 30 minutes to get here, paying for downtown parking, and your mistake for not canceling me, what do I get in compensation for ruining my Friday night? I get 20% off my next service and the manager will call the next day to hopefully make it better. Well, 2 days have gone by and no call from the manager. 20% is the best that you can do? How about paying me for the $15 in gas, $3 in parking, and another $10 for the inconvenience. Obviously joking, but 20% is ridiculous! What? Do you think $5 off my next service so this can happen again?! I've come here at least half a dozen times and this is the most unprofessional I've ever seen! You had 10 days to figure this out! You didn't even have the audacity to cancel the day of, better yet when I'm there! And then a manager doesn't even call to make this right?! Unless this is straighten out I will never come here again. DON'T COME HERE UNLESS YOU WANT TO GET CANCELLED WHILE YOU'RE IN THE SALON! 20% off what a JOKE

I was in Ann Arbor for a few days and wanting to get a pedicure. I'd mentally resolved that I would not be able to get my nails done on a Sunday. However, I went down State Street to grab some lunch. As I exited the restaurant with my to go order in hand, I looked up and saw the nail sign on in an upstairs window across the street. It took me a while to find the right door to go into to get to the nail salon; however, I was successful. You enter in a small door that's nestled between a couple of businesses and have to take the stairs up to the second floor, where Athena Nails is located (along with some other small businesses). I went in half expecting them to actually be closed (despite the sign being on), or unavailable to take me at that time. I have my lunch in hand and needed to be back at my hotel in about 80 minutes. I was shocked when the woman said that she could take me immediately, but I readily agreed. It's a suite space, so there were two pedicure chairs, and 2 or 3 individual nail stations. One pedicure chair was already occupied, so I took the second. I only use regular polish on my natural nails (no gel, SNS, or acrylics). Even though I'd noted this at intake, I had to clarify this once in the chair as the experience seemed, we were headed for gel polish. Once clarified, my nail technician quickly, switched gears and went to collect colors that were close to the shade. I chosen from the options originally provided. I was surprised to see that the regular polishes were all from a luxury brand (Hermès) but it made the slightly higher price I was quoted make sense. I see the experience is no frills, because it was just a straight pedicure. None of the extra add-ons that lots of nail shops offer these days. No paraffin wax or hot stones or scented waters; no massage chairs; etc. The chair did have a basin for hot water to sit your feet in, but it didn't do anything special. The technician cared for my nails, painted them, applied some special oils to them, and then lotioned my feet. I was able to eat my lunch (a salad) as she worked. I got out of there on time to get back to my hotel. Once I got to my hotel, I was able to change clothes without ruining my pedicure. It was completely dry with just the products she used. I didn't need time with my feet under a fan or anything else. Here's the kicker: I am now, two weeks out from this experience, and my polish still looks fresh. My toe nails are just now starting to show the first sign of even growing out the tiniest bit. If I lived locally, I'd patronize this place again and again.

Trying to schedule a second cut has been a nightmare. They cancelled my first appointment because of a plumbing issue. Totally understandable. I rescheduled the next week. Cancelled again.
