It was my first time and probably last time here. Very disappointed and overpriced but I came to…read morethe conclusion that I was okay paying the price as long as my mani & pedi looked good for my trip. My manicure was okay but my pedicure on my big toe she put too much polish and didn't even fix it there is a big bubble and polish smearing on the side. Seems like the gel top coat was not done something that the polish on my feet especially are starting to fall off. I got the basic combo with gel which I thought was way too expensive and I wasn't even charged for there "combo". I was the last one there getting close to 6pm and was very rushed towards the end. Don't advertise that you close at 7 when you are trying to leave at 6/6:30pm. I was okay paying while still being serviced but then just became very rushed like they wanted me out. My services were not worth what I paid. Very disappointing. Should be redone properly in my opinion.

Today was my first time trying Best Nails and I was impressed. It was pretty busy when I walked in,…read morebut someone was able to take me within 5 minutes for my gel mani. I had a chipped nail coming in (my natural nail) and my technician actually patched it up for me without me even asking which I thought was really nice. I got the OPI gel in "Bubble Bath" and am in love with how it came out. I typically get dark colors and this is the perfect neutral. I also got a 10 minute neck / shoulder massage and it was sooooo good! I've been to other highly rated nail salons in the area but this spot is so far the nicest, cleanest, and has the best selection of gel nail colors by far. I will definitely be coming here regularly!

Wow!! What a manicure! This place was packed, and now I know why. Tina spent about an hour on my…read moremanicure, and it was fantastic. Included was a shoulder and neck massage, and she spent a full 10 minutes working out all my knots with oil and strong, skilled hands... then followed it up with another 5 minutes on my hands and arms. She used a variety of great-smelling waxes, oils, and scrubs, which made the whole experience feel extra luxurious. I also really appreciated that all of the tools came out of a sealed sanitary bag. I can't wait to come back!

I felt like I got the princess treatment, someone was doing my acrylic set while someone else did my pedicure. I normally don't like getting my nails done as I've had bad experiences with getting burned or knicked but my tech was very gentle and thorough! They did such a great job! It's a small spot but they're incredibly nice and are very welcoming. Customer service and the finishing product was amazing. I'll definitely be coming back!

I called to see how long the wait was and they said to come on in. I was greeted warmly and was led to my seat immediately. The technician was able to match it perfectly to my set and the whole process was less than 10 minutes from start to finish. And only $5! That deserved a 100% tip! Well, I'm very happy to have made the pit stop because my boyfriend is now my fiance and I couldn't be more thrilled!

Thankfully, she was switched with another woman, who was very sweet and good at it. I believe the first woman thought she could get away with no effort because my sister is very young.

It was a last minute idea and I called everyone two days before~ Enter Tee. She squeezed us in last minute and I haven't been to a salon since! I now always get my nails done at home which is unbelievably helpful because we have such busy/unpredictable schedules. She does the whole families nails as well (Hubs, myself, our 18yr old and 7yr old boy for a trim and cuticle maintenance because I CANNOT do that to save my life) and she does an amazing job! My 18yr old likes the coffin cut and long claws; I'm traditional keeping them very short, square cut, white French tip and she also does an amazing job with all styles! Tees also absolutely lovely- very personable and honestly I love our talks! She gives amazing Mom advice too haha So thank you Tee and we'll probably see you in like a week ha
