Castle Nails is a big step up from your average strip-mall nail salon. Some of the positives: their…read moremassage chairs are the nicest I've ever sat in, everyone is friendly and speaks English, they have a great polish selection (OPI, China Glaze, etc.) in an organized wall display, and the premium pedicure ($45) comes with an extended leg/foot massage and a complementary glass of wine. The negatives: I had an appointment with Michael and he ran about 30 minutes late, which from other reviews seems to be a common complaint. Also the prices are 30% higher than what I pay at home. But for a central location, great staff, and a very clean salon, I'd still give the place 4.5 stars. I plan on becoming a regular.

I have tried to give this place numerous visits and every time I leave mostly disappointed. The…read morelast visit from a week ago has solidified that I will no longer patronize this establishment. I went to go get a pedicure a week ago. I asked for a spa pedicure, which is supposed to include "extra Massage". They really don't take time to clean up the nail bed and things like that. I usually overlook all of these things because at least the nail polish ends up lasting. This last visit however, the nail polish was absolutely junk and started chipping a few days after I got the pedicure. When I went back to request a polish change, the person helping me when I walked in assumed I was there for a full pedicure. When I explained that I was not there for a full pedicure, they changed their minds and told me they did not have time to take me and to come back in an hour. I've lived in the area for at least three years, and have been struggling to find a quality nail salon that will not overcharge me and will also do a good job. This place isn't it.

Disappointing experience -- not worth the price I had high…read morehopes for Premier Nails in Meredith, especially after asking for their most premium pedicure service -- the one that includes a mask, hot stone treatment, massage, and callus removal. Unfortunately, the entire experience felt incredibly rushed and underwhelming. The technician was very friendly but the pedicure didn't even last 30 minutes, and it was clear they were more focused on getting clients in and out quickly rather than providing quality service. My cuticles were barely touched, the buffing on my big toe was rushed, and all of the callus removal? Still very much there. They also didn't address any of my ingrown nails -- something I'd expect to be standard in a higher-end pedicure. At $65, I expected a relaxing, thorough treatment -- but instead, it felt like a basic express pedicure with a luxury price tag. I guess I've been spoiled by top-notch pedicure experiences in California, and sadly, this just didn't measure up. I won't be returning, and I'd recommend looking elsewhere if you're seeking a proper, pampering pedicure experience.

A Serene Spa Experience with Stunning Lake Views…read more Tucked inside the beautiful Church Landing hotel, right next to Lakehouse Grille, Cascade Spa in Meredith is a true hidden gem--especially if you're looking for a peaceful and rejuvenating pedicure experience with views that can't be beat. We came in for a morning pedicure for three, including my husband and dad, and it turned out to be the perfect start to the day. The salon is spotlessly clean, the atmosphere is incredibly calm and quiet (no blaring music, thankfully!), and the overall vibe is pure serenity. The professionalism of the technicians really stood out, and I want to give a special shoutout to Kannah, who did a wonderful job on my pedicure--gentle, thorough, and so kind throughout the entire service. Yes, it's on the pricier side, but honestly? Sitting by Lake Winnipesaukee, sipping hot tea, and enjoying a relaxing leg massage while surrounded by such natural beauty--it's one of those "life is short, treat yourself" moments that's absolutely worth it.

I wanted to take the time to write a well-deserved glowing review for the best hair stylist and salon I have ever given my business to. Kymm Smith, owner of Voila, is a lovely and kind lady that I have known for many years. She is a very caring, genuine individual and with over 30 years of experience in this industry, she is incredibly knowledgeable in her craft. Kymm's daughter, Tia, has followed in her Mom's footsteps and is also a familiar face with the biggest smile to greet you that you'll find at Voila. I always feel super comfortable in Kymm's chair. It's like stepping into a friend's kitchen and is a warm and relaxing environment. Kymm really listens to what your needs / wants are and she'll be honest with you as to whether a certain color or foil will look right on you or not. I always respect her opinion which comes from her vast expertise and dedication to her craft. Besides giving great hair outcomes, Kymm gives THE BEST scalp massages when shampooing, conditioning and rinsing your hair. Frankly that is my FAVORITE part of my visit! I appreciate and value the care that I receive from Kymm Smith and her Voila family and I don't mind the 45 minute drive to see her every 5-6 weeks. I KNOW that she and her staff will always take great care of me and my needs.

I had my hair blown out there 2 weeks ago, and I asked the stylist if she was vaccinated so that I would know whether or not to wear my mask. She refused to give me a straight answer at first, but when she finally did, she said yes, she was vaccinated. As a result, neither I nor she wore our masks. However, she lied!! How do I know she lied? Because the owner later called me to CANCEL my second appointment, saying the stylist felt UNCOMFORTABLE! Obviously, that stylist lied about her status. How completely reckless and uncaring. The new CDC laws require vaccinations of people who are up close and personal such as at this business. If they get their clients sick, which is only a matter of time, they surely won't have a business. The owner should be ashamed of her behavior.

To keep you occupied she will give you a totally unnecessary deep conditioning before drying and then coloring it.
