So I've never had a bad experience with Steve until today. First let me say I came about a week ago…read morefor him to fix one of my nails that he had done 2 weeks prior he wanted to charge me 7$ so i would have been paying 8$ to fix one nail cause they charge 1$ to use your debit card. Ridiculous right. Ok so today I came in pleasant as usual sat down I get the same length, same shape every time for 55$ all of a sudden today it's 65$ so I asked him did they go up he said no I checked my debit card to see what the price was and of course my transanctions said 55$ so I showed him now of a sudden the 55$ length is shorter then what I normally get so I told him to cut them down, he cut my real nail without even asking so I told him I didn't want that nail cut he told me it doesn't matter oh wow so I said it does matter to me because I didn't ask you to cut that nail you shoulda asked first. He got mad because I called him out about going up on the price all while he was lying talking about he didn't go up I even showed him my bank statement proof that I was being charged $55 for the length I've been getting since forever. He tried to get smart talking bout why you ask for me I didn't ask for you I came in and sat down. so I'm sitting soaking my nails he goes if you're not gonna soak your nails you can leave I replied I'm not going nowhere they were put on here and imma be here until they come off at this point I'm heated cause you clipped my real nail without even asking so I told him you can't get mad because you got called out trying to lie about the cost of the nails and also trying to charge me 7$ a week ago for one nail. As a result of him being called out he didn't wanna do my nails anymore so I'm currently soaking them off to go somewhere else. He can only do regular nails anyway can't do no design of no sort just put nails on and regular polish shit I won't be missing nothing at all

We checked in for our appointments and even though they were at 12 & 12:45 they got us both started ASAP. My technician, the niece of the owners was amazing, gentle and did a great job. The only reason I give 4 stars is that my daughter showed her technician a picture of coffin shaped nails and came out with them super squared and she has abrasions on several fingers. When i asked her about that she said the technician was very rough and hurt her. I asked her if she spoke up and she said she was scared to. That's some of her being 15 I'm sure (& I was at another table) but it's also important for the artist to recognize if a client may be younger or shy and make sure they're getting a quality experience and what they want / have asked for. These are her nails for her 16th birthday present. The owner was SUPER sweet & when she found out it was our birthdays gave us each a sweet little gift! We'll definitely come back again, just probably ask for a different technician for my daughter.

I am writing this review because people deserve to know about the experience I had at Chic Nails…read moreand Spa. While I was getting a pedicure, a mother came in with her young daughter to get a manicure and pedicure. The little girl was white. The owner began talking about how beautiful the little girl was. Then the conversation changed, and she said that when "other kids" come in, they are loud and disruptive. My friend responded that all children can be loud sometimes. The owner then said, "No, only Black kids," and went on to say they are "ghetto" and that she tells her employees to work on them quickly and get them out of the salon because they disturb her wealthy clients. I am Puerto Rican, and my husband is Black. My family is multicultural. Hearing the owner make those comments left me shocked and speechless. I froze and decided to leave because I couldn't believe what I had just heard. I had planned to return and confront the owner, but I had to travel the following day and wasn't able to. I will never return to Chic Nails and Spa. If you are Black, Hispanic, or anyone who believes every customer deserves to be treated with dignity and respect, I encourage you to consider spending your money elsewhere. In my experience, no business that expresses racist views deserves the support of the community.

Seriously, top 3 in the world. I was in town staying with friends before leaving the country again and stopped in to see if she was still there... Man am I lucky! Not only is she still there, but she fit me in last minute before my trip. Even better? How many hairdressers do you know that keep a client book that goes back 10 years? She does... We needed to repeat a process we did back then and she had the exact formula we used. How can I not love this place? It's still cute, still smells good, still does trendy hair and it's still in Sumter. I'm moving back to SC... I'll be making the drive to Sumter to see Sarah Beth and get my hair done!

I've had mall haircuts most of my life and they've always been hit or miss. In 2007, I decided to…read moretry a real salon. It was great even though I was spending a minimum of $70 each visit. I quickly got used to quality haircuts. Sooooo, when I moved to Sumter, I was nervous because it does not look like a place with good salons. I figured that I would have to get my hair done in Columbia. However, I read a review of the Venue and gave it a shot. When I went there, I asked for a stylist with modern, cutting-edge skills. I didn't want a crazy hairstyle, but I did want someone who had some serious training. They suggested Michael B. He is awesome! And, I've heard only good things about the rest of the stylists. My haircut usually costs $35 plus tip, which I feel is a bargain.
