Aroma Nails

I’ve been coming here for years. They’re friendly, clean and good service. Good rates too

HORRIBLE place. My friend and I had 5:45 mani/​pedi appointments. My pedicure was okay except for the fact she got MAD at me when I asked her to use a razor for my heels. My friends nail tech didn’t use the right color on her toes and since she didn’t speak any english she didn’t understand that. So another nail tech had to finish her pedicure. Also, during my friends pedicure they also started to give her a manicure and the nail tech messed up on that and so they had to redo the entire manicure. At 6:47 to be exact when we were STILL drying our nails, they all got their purses out and bags and made us leave and walked out RIGHT behind us. Mind, that they don’t close until 7 pm. Worst customer service ever and we definitely WON’T be back!

Loved getting my nails done. They were polite and very professional. Lydia was such a wonderful person she took good care of me. I am looking forward to going back and bringing my friends with me.

I’ve been coming here for years. A friend referred me to go here. I love the decorations here and they keep the place nice tidy and clean. Everyone who works here is friendly kind and passionate. Esther took me as a walk in, there was no wait. I needed to get my nails filled in. She did a great job, used clean instruments, and was fast! Everyone still compliments my nails!

I called Aroma Nails this afternoon to make an appt for myself for a gel manicure and a mani/​pedi for my 4 yr old son who actually enjoys the pampering, they told me to come in at 3, over the phone I stressed that I wanted our appointments for the same time, so my son was kept busy while I had my manicure done. When we got there at 3, our appt time, the tech took me and started my manicure, my son sat down next to me and waited patiently for another tech to free up to start his services. I asked Esther, my technician, if someone would be starting my sons manicure soon… she nodded and said yes. Another 5 mins goes by, a tech finishes with a client and and takes another client– not my son. So, I ask Esther again, and tell her we need to stop right now if there isn’t someone scheduled to take care of my son, THEN she decides to tell me she will do him when she is finished with me! Why the hell would that be ok, why would I make my 4 year old sit and watch me get my nails done. I said, well if thats the case we need to stop now, Esther says nothing, just starts cleaning up her tools then gets up and chases another client out the door that was leaving because there wasn’t immediate availability. As my son is leaving in tears, because he was actually looking forward to having his nails done, and feet rubbed, I again told Esther that what she did was wrong and she should be embarrassed for making a 4 year old child cry. Still no apology, nothing. Its not like I expected them to do it for free, a client is a client, 34 years old or 4 years old. I will NEVER go back there, EVER.

This is becoming my go to place. Great atmosphere, the nail techs are super nice and they do a decent job for the price. Can’t complain for a no chip at $ 35 and a regular manicure for $ 15. And their specials of a mani pedi are def the lowest prices around

This place has great specials all week. Try to get the ($ 30 mani pedi mon — wed). It’s so worth it. They always try to accommodate you even if busy– and its clean, relaxing and conveniently located. So far, no complaints and yes I am a repeat customer!

I went to get my mani/​pedi a few weeks ago and I wanted to relax. Meanwhile, they do your fingernails and toenails at the same time. How is that relaxing? I will not be returning. The polish was off of my fingernails within 2 – 3 days. Enough said.

Everything about this place is great! The location is prime, as it’s right next to the train station and in the glen. Prices are about the same as most other salons but considering the upscale area that it’s located in, they’re pretty good.
The décor is very modern, comfortable, and clean, not to mention, the massage chairs really get in there. I’m greeted with a chorus of «hi’s» when I walk in and someone almost always puts a drying oil on my nails and says goodbye when I leave.
Esther is very personable and professional. Though her English is a bit lacking, I like that she tries. The staff changes every now and then but everyone is always very friendly and great at what they do.
Been coming here for almost two years now and I love it every time! Highly recommended.

2 stars for the service and pedicure I got and 1 extra star to reflect my friend’s better but not terrific experience. We had side by side pedicures — she got a lower leg and foot massage, my gal tried to tell me I «missed» mine because I was talking. Um, yeah, I’d know if you’d massaged my feet and legs or not no matter how much my mouth was moving… followed by an extremely poor attempt to do it after I said something. Did not ask me about length or shape and cut one nail well below the proper level before I stopped her then rolled her eyes when i said not to cut the rest of them. 7 hours later I’m still feeling the nail she cut too low. On top of that the scraping/​callus removal was so minimal that it’s as if it was never done.
So disappointing as I’d been to this salon a few times before and while it was never a rave it was always decently on the good side. My feet barely feel pampered and I feel scammed. If it wasn’t for the company of my friend who had a better experience (though still not great) it would have earned 2 stars at the best.

I love these ladies! Been coming to this salon since I moved from the city so 4 years now and never switched. Great service amazing prices and they are always able to squeeze me in somehow which is fantastic!

I live down the street from this salon but had never been inside. I walked in and was seen right away this afternoon. I got a no-​chip manicure and love it!
The staff was warm and friendly, and the atmosphere was very clean and professional. The décor was very modern and polished. There were about 5 technicians working
Mimi was very, very attentive to all the prep work– filing, buffing, cuticle work, and a wonderful, even vigorous, arm and hand massage and hot towel. Then, Josephine did a fantastic job applying OPI Gel Color (and OPI base and OPI top coat). I was so happy she was able to use a dark color even on my short nails. Both technicians took their time and did a great job. They also made conversation, but not too much, which I like. «Elf» was playing on the TV on the wall.
All the staff was very friendly and wished every customer a Merry Christmas as they left.
The only reason I am not giving five stars is because the gel manicure was $ 35 before tip, which I think is a little high. I think they have Monday through Wednesday specials, though, which might bring the cost down.

I love this nail salon. The mani/​pedis are very well priced and the salon is very comfortable and clean. The staff is also very friendly. Highly recommended.

Things I like:
Quiet-didn’t have to make chit-​chat
Movie-​They always are playing a chick-​flick on the flat screen
Polite

Great staff, nice place, but unfortunately, one of the worst manicures I’ve ever had… Air-​bubbles on almost every nail, very dissapointing. On a brighter side, my pedicure was pretty good. Unless, you really don’t have a choice, I’d not recommend this place.

Def one of my favorite places to get my nails done. I love going for their $ 30 mani & pedi. Esther and Lidia are the best! Spend a lot of time filing and cleaning my cuticles. The rest of the staff is super friendly.

Close to home.
Great staff. I love Stella & Grace, they are my 2 fav nail technicians.
Good specials all week. ($ 30 mani pedi mon thru wed, $ 35 mani ped thur thru sat)
This place is like my second home. Maybe it’s coz I’m Korean and it’s a korean owned nail salon, but they all treat me like their daughter. Service is great: massages, warm neck pillow, and beverages.
My mani-pedi’s have lasted for quite some time.
Attentive and friendly. (not just toward Asians. my 2 Caucasian gf’s told me about Aroma & they love service just as much as I do!)

It was my first time at this nail salon, and I have to say it was just ok and that I’ve had better experiences. I decided to treat myself to a mani/​pedi since they have a $ 30 special Mon-​Wed and it’s super close to where I work. It’s a fairly new establishment in the Glen. If I were rating cleanliness and the appearance of the place, I would give it 5 stars hands down. They had these awesome massage chairs while you get a pedi that face two flat screens where they were showing a dvd of «Notting Hill». (Romantic comedy – nice touch for one who wants to relax and be pampered) The mani tables don’t face the screens which caused my neck to be sore since I actually wanted watch. They also put this warm neck pillow on which at first I thought was very pleasant, but eventually it cools down then it literally just becomes a weight on your shoulders and actually started hurting rather than relaxing. When I took it off myself, an employee came over to take it from me and then slung it around her neck… which I thought was just… weird.
Anyway, on to the actual service. I know I’m assuming here, but I really think that I had a newbie working on me. Someone else kept coming over to check her work, and It took a little over an hour an half to do both the mani and pedi. I was dying! I’m all for them taking their time and doing a great job and all, but it felt more like she was thinking to herself, «I have to take my time because I think I might screw up.» I have definitely had better service. And I get it, everyone has to start somewhere. Someone is always the first client… but why me? Damnit! Then the nail polish I chose was that super thick, kinda gloppy consistency which totally sucks cuz then she was putting it on waaay too thick. Not until the end did someone try to thin it with acetone or something. I don’t know why it wasn’t done earlier or why I wasn’t given the chance to choose another color. Also, you know how when you are getting a mani and they let one hand soak in a little bowl to soften the cuticles? She was taking so long with one hand, the other hand that was soaking… I swear to you, turned into raisins!!! There was my pruney hand soaking in cold water… not a good feeling! No exfoliation was done for my hands even though I clearly saw another customer get it done. Hmmm. what else… oh she blew her nose in the middle of my mani and didn’t wash her hands… that was super gross. Also while she was pushing my cuticles back I swear she was gonna jam that instrument right into me… it hurt so much! I kept pulling away from her! I was then brought to a personal station to dry my nails. I don’t know what they are called, but it was the thing where there’s a bluish light; and when it turned on it shined on all this gunky, smeared stuff where I was supposed to rest my hands. I was kinda grossed out so I had somewhat float my hands so I didn’t touch the surface. Upon inspecting my mani, I noticed she didn’t even clean off the polish she got on the skin around the nails, it just seemed like a very messy, amateurish job overall.
*sigh* so you can definitely say that I had one of the worst mani/pedi’s. I can’t completely rule this place out just cuz the location convenience and their Mon-​Wed special. Hopefully, I would have someone else work on me. But, besides the unfortunate first time experience, everyone there was really nice and friendly. However, you should know, their prices seem a bit on the high side (besides the special) for a typical nail salon. Just as an FYI, they also offer waxing, they accept credit cards, but you have to pay tip with cash. If the employee who worked on me were new to this… one suggestion to them, let her practice on another employee first!
