Sydney McFadden Absolutely horrific. I asked for acrylic French they pressured me into SNS. Did a horrible job and had to come have my boyfriend help me. I asked them to remove and they wouldn’t remove them. After I was surrounded by five workers all staring at my nails my boyfriend had to come over and tell them to knock it off and remove my nails. They did not give me a refund and robbed me of over $50 dollars. Do not come here.not to mention, they are crooked, clumpy, and not the picture I showed. I asked for simple thin French white tips. I asked her throughout the process to make them less clumpy and thinner. I asked them eight times to get them removed and were not listening. They kept drilling them making them worse. They only removed them when my boyfriend came over and demanded they remove them.

nae c LV Nails by far is the best nail salon to go to in the state of GA. Ms. Judy, Mr. Andy, & the rest of the staff are very efficient and good at what they do! Good pricing; top notch customer service as well. They will make you want to come back again & again!

Jaynae Hill Let me start by saying this!! UGA Is NOT the Only College here in Athens and nor is it the Only School that has Student ID’s. So here it is I left my place that I’ve been going to for over 8 years. I came here because I needed to get in and my Long time tech wasn’t unavailable. I came here and instantly fell in love with them. It was very quiet and clean and I continued to come and they continued to give me a hard time about my Student ID from Athens Technical College where I’m currently attending FULL TIME and work a FULL TIME Job! Well today was the FINAL STRAW they refused to give me my Student discount stating that my ID was Expired which it IS NOT. They then said well you need to take another one with the right date. First of all the date seen on my card is the issue year in which I received my card and NOT and expiration date. I was so upset by this explaining to them that’s not how it works. I tried calling the school in which by the time I called the main office was closed. I’m currently sitting in my 5:30 class now making this review. DONT GO TO THEM THEY ARE RUDE OVERPRICED and EXTREMELY SLOW in service. I will NEVER GO HERE AGAIN! BEWARE any College Students they’re Liars and won’t Honor the 10%. Oh and these are today’s nails last time they will EVER do them.

Julie Hummel Thank you Pro nails for always making my experience a great one The nail technicians at this salon are always so gentle when removing gel polish or acrylics. The experience was lovely! All of the staff were very friendly and professional. I’m not the type to leave good reviews but these guys deserve it.

Deborah Jackson I made an appt. with Teresa that had been doing my nails for a year. She had just finished with a customer and her customer moved to the pedicure chair with another tech. So instead of honoring my appt., since no other customers were in the store, she put me with a guy that was very inexperienced, and she went to back and started folding towels. After he cut me and then hit me with the drill twice, I decided it was best to leave and not come back. Had to rush to another salon to get my nails finished. If you dont want uneven nails and nail fungus, this is probably not the best place to go.

Tara Powell I’ve been to so many Athens nail shops and this one is by far the best, from its service to its amazing staff! The staff is so friendly, cares about your nail health, cares about your business, and makes an effort to make you the customer feel welcome in the shop! The ownership is amazing and genuinely care about making sure you’re happy with your service. They also offer a 10% student discount and the prices are amazing for the high level of service quality!

Alanna Murphy I love coming to this place every time, so I figured it was finally time to leave a review so more people can check them out. Today, like always, everything went great. The staff are the sweetest people ever, always making sure you’re comfortable and taken care of. I’m always in and out, never feel rushed. Jade did my toes today and added designs, and it was hands down the BEST pedicure with designs I’ve ever had. It turned out so beautiful! She was super patient and really took her time. I truly enjoyed her and will definitely keep coming back. I 100% recommend this salon!
5 /5
Summer Rae The only reason for this 3 stars is strictly the design on my nails and the gel. I just left maybe an hour ago and the gel is already peeling off, also the design is just a little sloppy. I know she tried hard and she took her time but I’m just not 100 percent pleased with it. Otherwise my pedi was great, the atmosphere is nice and clean. The employees are super nice and took their time with me. I did have a great time though, I know designs are hard

Renu Chhabra I love going to this nail salon, always a great experience! The owner, Kim, and her entire staff is very professional, attentive, and friendly. They even treat my 4 year old like a princess, the techs always wait patiently as she picks out her favorite colors.They never rush through services despite being busy or slow. I dont like to go to any other nail shops in the area anymore.

Daniel Tassitino You want amazing nails? Come here. You found it. This place is truly AMAZING. We can not recommend it enough - if you want your nails done right come here. We went over to LV Nails for my sisters wedding day and they SCREWED it up and did not treat us well - rushing it and not caring at all So we quickly came to Nail Care and they fixed it and made it better than we could have imagined. The energy, the people, how they treat there customers is truly wonderful. Learn from us and come here the first time.

Audrianna Randolph What an awesome nail salon. The service is wonderful, quick, and convenient!!! Been coming here almost 20years and still love!!!! “Mama” is the best with the eyebrows!!! Book now!!!!
5 /5
Corterra Wright Wait times are extremely long! Every time I visit this location, the wait time is an hour or longer. Honestly, I feel that the manger does not know how to properly facilitate the flow of the customers. For example, if I come in for eyebrows, she will make me wait an hour. This service typically takes about 5-10 minutes. There is no way a person should be waiting this long for a quick service. There should be one or two people assigned for eyebrows/lashes. Everyone should not be doing manicures and pedicures at the same time. If that’s the case, who is left to do other services. Not sure if it’s a staffing issue or poor management. I have been a loyal customer to this nail shop for years. It really sucks that I have been going through this lately.

14.Bellagio Nail Bar

(774) Reviews Bellagio Nail Bar:

Krystal Rodriguez Extremely Disappointed and Overcharged I recently took my three children to this salon for manicures and pedicures, specifically choosing this place because they used to have kid-friendly chairs. When we arrived, I was told the chairs were no longer available, but since we were already there, I decided to stay, hoping it would still be a good experience. I ended up getting two manicures and three pedicures because I took my little boy to get his feet cleaned I didn’t want him to feel left out. Unfortunately, it was anything but a good experience. From the start, I felt rushed while my girls were choosing colors, and the staff spoke in their language the entire time, laughing and glancing in our direction, which made me uncomfortable. When they asked about which pedicure option I wanted, I felt that what they offered was excessive for a child’s foot and more suited for an adult. To make matters worse, the water for the pedicures was cold, and the overall service felt rushed and incomplete. They only trimmed the nails, pushed back the cuticles, and gave a quick massage that lasted less than two minute. I was shocked to discover that they had a kids’ section in their pricing book that listed $20 for a pedicure and $12 for a manicure. However, I was charged $30 per pedicure and $15 per manicure. When I questioned the discrepancy, I was told it was because my children sat in adult chairs an explanation that made no sense, especially since they no longer had the kid friendly chairs. To make matters worse, they rushed through the service because they were about to close, which resulted in my kids’ nails not drying properly and getting smudged. They didn’t even offer to fix them. I felt completely overcharged and misled. Later, I called my regular nail salon to compare prices and was quoted $10 for a kids’ manicure and $25 for a pedicure, which would have totaled $95. Instead, I was charged $117 here it was originally supposed to be $120, but after I courteously pointed out that they skipped several steps in the service, they took off $2 This left me feeling extremely upset. I’m not a confrontational person and don’t like to argue or make a scene, so I left holding back how I truly felt. However, this entire experience was frustrating and left me feeling taken advantage of. If they no longer offer kids’ pricing, they should update their pricing book and communicate that to customers instead of misleading them. I will not be returning and do not recommend this place to anyone looking for quality service or honest pricing.

Kelli Neil Hostess was rude. Asked for matching toes and nails. They did not match and argued with us about the color difference. Our nails were messy. Also, extremely over priced!! I will never return.

felicity phillips DO NOT COME HERE!!! I am entirely displeased with my manicure. I came here as a treat with my mother and sister to get our nails done as an outing together which we rarely have due to my sister’s health complications. First off, as we walked in, the staff were out of order and said some snide, insulting comments towards how short my mother’s nails were when she is a professional violinist and has to keep them short for her job. They made rude comments in a foreign language multiple times and the lady working my nails kept trying to pressure me for nail art, I politely declined however, she kept insisting. It’s been about a week now and all my nails are chipped, cracked, and lifting. At first it was only my middle finger which I got redone at another nail salon (as seen in picture). Also, the plaza in which this is located in, has had many break ins and theft recently. I won’t be coming back!!

Skyler FABULOUS, start to finish. The customer service is on point, the nail techs really care about doing a wonderful job, and the salon is super clean and pleasant to be in. I have a manicure thats three weeks old: theres no chipping, no catching at the bottom where theres new nail growth, and I am still getting compliments on my manicure. This place is truly top notch, I finally found a salon that I can call my go-to spot. :) Youve GOT to see Sammy if you want nail art done. Hes SO detailed and makes sure every nail is absolutely perfect. Ive been seeing Sammy for years and he always does incredible work. Just look at how cute my lemons are!
