A Nails & Spa

I received a gift certificate here for Christmas and was very excited to give it a try. I went for the works with a pedicure and manicure and while the pedicure was fine the manicure was terrible.
The guy was rushing so badly that be forgot to put a clear coat on one of my fingers for French tips and I had to ask another guy to finish it. The edges were chipped and unpainted as well as white fixed in with the pink. I had white paint around my fingers that the guy failed to clean as well. I actually went to another nail salon a few days later to have them redone because they were already chipping so badly. I won’t return.

I’m not sure who the other reviewers have been going to, but I’m pretty sure the woman who does mine is the owner. I’m new to the area and had several different people tell me several different places to go. The first time I went here was two weeks ago and that was the first time. She did a great job. I went again today for a gel manicure and regular pedicure, today the owner did my nails and the man with the glasses did my toes. Both did a good job, I personally like my fingernails short and asked them to make them short.
Again I’m not sure who did the other reviewers services but the owner is the person to go to, she does a good job. The prices are about $ 5 more than what I was paying where I used to live but it’s not a big deal since she does such a good job.

This has got to be the worst place to get a pedicure. My toe nails were cut so short they hurt. She then proceeded to file my nails which hurt even more cause my nails were cut so short. I was jabbed with a very pointy tool, the cuticle on my big toe started bleeding.
To top it all off the polish was all over my skin. She kept putting this cloth like thing in the remover to clean my skin, but each time she did, it would take the polish off the nail so she would have to retouch the nail.
While I was drying she asked for payment. that really ticked me off. Im not sure why I even tipped her.
Never again will I go back to this place!

If it was possible to leave negative stars in order to warn people away from here, I would leave about –2. A friend and I decided to save a little money and go here, where the prices were a few bucks less than our usual place. We walked in on the first nice day of the season (yesterday, 3÷26÷14) to find that only 2 people were working. First of all, the entire placed reeked of chemicals– which we later realized was because there is a gas tank filled of acetone sitting in the back. We were told it would be about a 20 minute wait, which we were fine with as we expected anywhere on the nice day to have a wait.
After about 45 minutes we were finally seated. Another 10 minutes later, after contemplating leaving, we were given small jars of nail polish remover and then asked to remove our old polish ourselves. Honestly, we should have gotten up at this point and left but unfortunately for us we did not. We removed to polish and after about another 5 – 10 minutes a lady came over, we explained we just wanted regular manicures and she took turns sliding between the two of us to complete the most rushed job I have EVER seen.
Not only was it a poor attempt at a «manicure» but the entire time her and I were lectured and disciplined (repeatedly saying «No! No, honey! No, I’ll move your hands») on how to and not to hold our hands while getting it done. The job was so rushed that the polish was still see-​through on our nails.
We waited 15 minutes to let our fingers dry and finally got out of that god awful place. I paid cash– because I didn’t really trust that I wouldn’t get scammed somehow. Needless to say, I left absolutely NO tip, which now I am even more glad that I didn’t because my nails look horrible– the polish is already chipping, and clumped in places, our hands were drier when we left than they were when we came in.
I will never be returning to this «spa» ever again, and recommend that you stay away from this unsanitary mess of a place before it closes down– which i’m sure it will within the near future.

I went there to get a pedicure and a full set, which took two and a half hours to complete. It took them thirty minutes to get someone to start my pedicure. Once my pedicure was over I waited about another 20 minutes. The lady who did my full set was very slow, so I thought my nails would turn out great because she was being very precise. However, my nails look terrible. I did not realize how bad they looked until I left and saw how she made them look awful. Although this place is cheaper than most other nail salons, I would have rather paid $ 10 extra for nails that looked decent.

I had been to A Nails once before and thought the service was mediocre but decided to give them another chance. I will not be going back.
Upon arriving, the manager came over to our pedicure chairs with a menu to give us information about a new super deluxe pedicure. The information in the menu was vague and the price field was blank. We felt uncomfortable pressure to «upgrade» but declined.
After the pedicure, I was asked for payment and handed over my credit card. The girl took it, ran it through, and came back with a receipt and THEN informed me that there was a $ 2 credit card fee. I did not appreciate being informed after the fact and not given the opportunity to pay in cash to save the fee.
In addition, I had given her a $ 20 bill and asked for change so I could provide a tip. She came back with two $ 10 bills and said they didn’t have any other change. Luckily the person with me broke a $ 10, but in retrospect I now suspect that she just wanted a $ 10 tip.
To top it all off, I discovered a big smudge on my big toe THAT NIGHT. What a waste of $ 45. Also, I noticed rough skin the next day. I thought it was odd that she only barely scrubbed my feet with the pumice, but didn’t realize she didn’t remove any of the dead skin at all.
Save your money.

No bueno.

This place is good if you want a cheap manicure in which you have 4 different girls rotating out performing a «manicure». The girls barley got any of my cuticles off and I still had a few hang nails when she «finished.» They also kept putting my hands in weird positions because they couldn’t see my nails even though there were two lights shining brightly on them. And then, halfway through, they made me move to a different seat.
The lady who did the gel manicure kept going back and forth between me and two other people. And then she got into a fight with whom I assume was the other owner and told him he was mean and to just go home. He threw a fit and pretty much threw the phone on the table she was doing my nails.
The only good thing was the cheap price compared to back home and the color selection.

I got my eyebrows done here a few months ago and the experience was not that great.
When I walked in I was expecting to pay with a card, but turns out they didn’t take credit card for a certain amount so the owner pointed me towards a crappy tiny ATM machine in the corner. I really needed my eyebrows done so I decided to go ahead and get a $ 20 out. When I was about to complete my transaction, the machine asked if I wanted to continue because it was out of receipts. Definitely not, it was way too sketchy. I told the manager and he just said he is out of receipt paper. not too concerned. I told him I was going to leave and come back then because I was not running my card and not getting a receipt.
I don’t know why, but I went back after visiting my bank and was helped pretty fast. The lady that did my eyebrows was very nice, until mid-​way through her boyfriend/​husband showed up and she had to stop everything she was doing and talk to him. I wasn’t about to leave with one eyebrow waxed and the other all over the place. So I patiently waited. She quickly (much faster than the first eyebrow) waxed the rest and ran over to her boyfriend who was saying he was leaving the whole time I was sitting in the chair (I guess to get her to hurry up). She gave me a mirror and walked into the back never to be seen again. So I paid and left and will never go back again.

I have been frequenting this place faithfully for the past year and I really dont know why. Every time you go into the shop they have increased the price and their work is just above average. They have a couple of the people there that can give a GREAT pedicure but that doesnt make up for their nickle and diming you to death. They actually charge you an extra $ 3 if you ask for shorter nails (isnt this part of the service???) and they charge you an extra $ 2 if you dont pay in cash. I have never been happy with my solar nails there and I have finally decided to try somewhere new for my next fill. I will be sure to post a review of the next one.
