I walked into LA Nail Spa around 3:00 PM on a Saturday and was not greeted at all. The staff…read moreimmediately began speaking to each other in a language I didn't understand, and after a moment, told me they were closed, despite the fact that their posted hours said otherwise and there were no signs indicating they were not accepting customers. The interaction felt dismissive and unwelcoming, especially considering the time of day and the lack of any explanation. I left feeling uncomfortable and disrespected. From my perspective, the experience carried undertones of discrimination, and it was certainly unprofessional. I will be reporting this incident to the appropriate channels, as no customer should be treated as though they are invisible or unwelcome.

It was my first time at Golden File in downtown New Orleans. Angel was my nail artist, and she did…read moresuch an AMAZING job! I wanted natural nails with varying lace looks across my nails for my wedding day. She hand-painted them absolutely perfectly! I was so impressed, I teared up. They were beautiful, and I received so many compliments, not to mention they stayed on for a month! The vibe at Gold en Fileis is very chill and chic. It feels relaxed but fun. The white-and-gold elements throughout, the gold Buddhas, and the hanging chandeliers create a cohesive brand look and feel. It was clean and inviting. I would recommend Angel a million times over!

Unfortunately, I had to choose a green color for my manicure in theme for my friend's bachelorette party but my manicurist Trey did an amazing job by making green look pretty with a cat eye design (extra $15). To book with Golden File, they request you to book online and ask you to pay for a 50% deposit. They also assign you a manicurist at the time of booking so you are guaranteed someone will be working with you during your set appointment. I really appreciate their strong scheduling system as I can't stand when I make an appointment at a nail salon and they don't actually keep the appointment time. The staff is also all so friendly and nice. They offer drinks (water, wine, Viet coffee, etc.) and snacks while you are getting your nails done. There is also a phone stand next to you to keep you phone propped up to doomscroll if you please. It's all the little touches like this that I really appreciated!

Of course the polish I selected was empty, so she gave me a new color that looked nothing like the original one I wanted.

But while scrolling through Instagram and searching hashtags, I came across Magazine Nails and was immediately impressed by their work! I DM'd them with photos of the nail design I wanted and asked if anyone could do it. Not only did they reply quickly, but they confirmed they could do the design and booked my appointment right then and there. The entire interaction felt warm, professional, and welcoming, it really gave me a good feeling about choosing them. When I showed up for my appointment, the front desk greeted me kindly and told me exactly where to sit. Tommie was my nail tech, and when he asked me which of the two reference photos I wanted, I was so impressed...it showed he had really paid attention to our DM conversation. That kind of customer service means a lot! The nails turned out so freaking cute, I absolutely loved them! He nailed the design perfectly. What stood out even more was how friendly the entire staff was. Two other women who worked there stopped by just to compliment my nails. You could tell the vibe in this salon is supportive, artistic, and genuinely fun. For this to be my first visit, it was an incredible experience, and I'm definitely coming back. Highly recommend if you're looking for a talented, friendly team who actually listens and brings your nail vision to life!
