We walked in at 5:30 pm and asked for a manicure with design on the ring finger on each hand for my niece. They took us and sat us down and from there things just went downhill. I felt like the lady rushed through the whole process. The coat wasn't even and I had to ask her to clean up my nieces nails because they were sloppy. My niece was very polite and said she liked it, but compared to other simple manicures with a single gel coat I've seen so much better. My search for a good manicure continues. Manicure with a single gel coat and design on one finger was $33. I tipped $5 to be polite. So, $38.00 total.
I love a fresh manicure but also a perfectionist when it comes to my nails so over the years I started doing my own. I recently went to get a gel manicure with a friend who was getting engaged. It was good... but loved how my nails stayed shiny for weeks. I found A Z nails on Yelp and how nice it is a few miles from my house. From the reviews I decided to set an apt with Helen. In short she is amazing. She took the time to explain the process and how she takes extra effort not to damage natural nails. The first manicure she gave me lasted 3 weeks and the only reason I needed to go back was due to the nail growth. My nails still looked shiny and fresh. I've since gone back and got an American gel manicure and LOVE it! Love my nails and so happy I found Helen!!
Woo! I came to this place after searching on Yelp. We saw some of their nail arts on here, which made me wanted to come in. I came in with a good idea of what I wanted and got something better than what I expected. If you want holographic + shattered glass design done, this is the place! See picture. It was $12 for basic mani + $5 for design. Also note that they have you pay before service. When we first came in, we got seated within a minute after choosing our colors but ended up staying for an 1 1/2 due to how detailed and precise they are with their nails. My friend got her nail done by Kimmy and I got my nails done by another Kimmy. The nail technicians are very nice and hilarious, especially the younger Kimmy! She was talkative and upbeat which made the experience more fun, but when there was quiet time, they played instrumental music in the background which made it very relaxing. Helen is the manager there and she finished my friend's nail who wanted a leaf drawn on her nail. Helen freestyled it and it was amazing. She's very detailed and takes nail as a form of art, and didn't rush the process at all. If she wasn't satisfied with a nail design, she would redo it. Overall, I would recommend to my friends and come back.
This was my first time there and I would definitely go back! The workers there are very friendly and nice! Shout out to Lily who did my nails!!
I went in for a gel manicure on my natural nails ( which happen to be long), one nail broke so they were uneven. I told the nail tech that I wanted them all cut to match the broken one but said she could fix it so I agreed. That is until she said I had to pay her $40! I was confused because I wanted a gel manicure that is $25. When I kindly refused the "fix" she proposed she became upset and said that wouldn't look pretty. I insisted that she do what I asked and she did but with an attitude. Once she began applying the gel manicure I selected a silver holographic nail polish color. I was I love with the nails and had disregarded the attitude I assumed she was having a bad day. The NEXT day my nails ( 7 nails to be exact) had cracked. I returned to the shop and showed them and nails and asked to speak to the manager. The lady at the front said the manager left and began talking in her language with the other employees who all just stared at me. Obviously they were talking about me. She takes a closer look at my nails and says " yeah, that's because of the color you chose." I didn't believe her because I had gotten holographic nail polishes from this location in the past ( one month prior). I then went in the next day to my nails fixed. The same lady who did them was told she had to fix them. I wasn't too pleased to have her again. But she did apologize. She began to file down the top layer and simply add a layer of nail polish and top coat and said she was done. They were "fixed" in her opinion. While I sat there getting them fixed the manager and the other employees just talked in their language and gave me dirty looks. The NEXT day they cracked again! This time horizontally since that is the way she was filing down the top layer. I will not be returning to get them fixed and continue to waste my time and damage my nails. I am not around harsh chemicals at all! I am a broke college student who will NEVER return to this shop and encourage anyone who values the money they spend on their nails to do the same. I do recommend Artistry Salon and Spa! The gel nails last me a whole month without any chipping or CRACKING!
I called them early Saturday morning for a same day appt for a Mani/Pedi and they took me in right away. Located in the Home Depot shopping center on the corner of Meadowview and Pocket next to Baskin-Robbins. Greeted me right away as soon as I walked in,super friendly ladies. I went in with a design in mind I showed them what I wanted and they made it happen. They do ask you to pay up front which made it hard to gauge what you want to tip since the services haven't been completed yet, so I recommend you take cash for the tip. Nancy did my mani while Lily was doing my pedi. Both girls took their time and did a great job. I think I found my new go to spot for my mani/pedis
My-Le your amazing! Thank you for always working with me and my random ideas! This set turned out AMAZING!! This place is affordable the staff are super friendly! Love this place!
Worst French pedicure I ever got ! The big toes are powder & super uneven . I asked for a curved cut on the French nails and look how sloppy this is . I only paid $83 for a full set and pedicure so I guess you get what you pay for . I don't ever write reviews but unfortunately I had to today , and I usually leave great tips but I tried so hard to like this pedicure ... I just couldn't . Sorry
Ok I'll start this off with saying that I'm pretty satisfied every time I go-- whenever I get a full set, Kimmy is amazing! A few of the other ladies have also helped me and I've been happy like 90% of the time. However, this time around I was super disappointed. I went in to get my acrylic removed and then get a gel manicure because I knew my nails would be weak. I must never come when this nail technician works because I'd never seen him before. I've never gotten my acrylics off because I will typically let them come off on their own so I don't know the procedure for taking them off but I thought maybe they'd soak them or something. He started by cutting them shorter and then brought out the drill to file them down and he hit my cuticles twice which really hurt. Anyways, then I thought he was going to soak them but instead he just used a nail tip to go under the acrylic and popped them off. There were a couple times he kept pulling a nail and it felt like he was going to rip it off. If I would've known they were going to be taken off like that, I would've done it myself, at least then I wouldn't have been in pain. I also hoped he was going to at least spray some alcohol on the cuts, but he didn't. I contemplated leaving after the removal but decided to just go through with the manicure and the shape wasn't what I said ok to and it was uneven. The polish coats are also bumpy and ended up on some of my cuticles, but since it's gel I can't really just use nail polish remover to fix it up. Overall, I was extremely unhappy this trip, but I also don't want to leave 1 star for a single incident. I'll just make sure to get one of the other technicians next time because like I said before, I'm usually really satisfied with them.
love gettin my nails done here five stars for these amazn ladies ! quick and easy, made my wrinkly old lady hands shine!!!!!!

I'm quite disappointed with this place. I've seen so many good reviews about new management and how the owner has made the experiences much better, however I am certain I won't be back and here's why. The pedicure was so awful that I don't even want to show the end result because I am so embarrassed. It's been ONE day, and the gel polish is chipping off my toes already on top of the poorly painted job. Air bubbles, unevenness. Let's talk about the manicure. Tina, the new owner, did my nails. I had high expectations hence the reviews. It got busy, fast. She was rushing and helping other customers in between. Such as stopping in the middle of shaping my nails to go and clip & polish another customer's nails. The French tips are also poorly painted, the tips are uneven, and depending on the lighting you can see smears of white everywhere in her attempt to fix it without wiping it off complete and re-doing it. The shaping is also uneven. To top it off-- the nails are already budging at the cuticle, I'm sure these will fall off before a week. Lastly, I understand that the economy sucks and it's hard for small businesses. I don't appreciate the attempt to do a manicure and pedicure at the same time. The twisting and turning is uncomfortable, it's not relaxing, and you feel rushed. read more

I have been getting my nails done here for about four months now and I have been meaning to write a review because this is a great place to get your nails done. Linda does my nails and she does an excellent job. I come in with pictures of different color ideas and she is makes it happen. She does a wonderful job! They are also reasonable in price which makes the experience even better! ** For those of you in search of this place, it is right next to Togos-Baskin Robbins and is in the parking lot where Home Depot is. read more

Finally!!! I have found my nail shop close to home! I discovered A Z Nails from Yelp reviews and figured I would give them a shot. Luckily, my first visit there I got Helen :) She's been my go-to ever since! I can only speak on Helen as I've ever only had services completed by her. I suggest you make an appointment as they can get pretty busy! Helen is very thorough and she definitely takes her time. I can show her any picture and she can recreate or use it to create something even better! The shop is clean, quiet, professional. They do require payment before services. I actually prefer that so I don't have to dig in my purse after my services are done, but instead I can just get up and go. If you live in or close to the Pocket area I highly suggest you drop in! I get compliments on my nails all the time, thanks to Helen! read more

I just found out about this place about a month ago through recommendations. Let me tell you, I went to get my nails done the first time and left completely satisfied that I started planned my next session immediately. Peep my Halloween nails that was free-styled by one of the manicurist. Customer service is great and overall great energy from all the employees. Everyone of them will socialize with you and make you feel like you're part of their family. They take their time and make sure they perfect every nail. If there's a minor flaw, they will take the initiative to fix it without me even mentioning anything. It's hard to find a good spot to get my nails done but I'm definitely happy that I found the perfect place. read more

Nail perfection!!! Coming from a perfectionist that means a lot! Annie and Kimmie ALWAYS shape my nails perfectly- my biggest pet peeve is uneven nails. They are both super patient and always strive to satisfy their customers. Love the vibe and energy of the salon. Everyone is nice, it's relaxing, and clean. *** Like any great salon they are busy on the weekends. I suggest you call ahead and make an appointment. Definitely will be coming back! read more

Helen laughed when I told her this but OMG getting my nails done at A Z Nails has been life changing! I used to be so nervous of getting cut by rough or careless nail techs and basically the whole salon environment is just very intimidating to me. But since I've started going to A Z Nails, I haven't had anything but excellent experiences with the staff there. With Helen, I can relax and trust that she will do a beautiful job. Not only is she talented, she works with gentle hands and makes such great company! Anne, Phillip and My Li are also very nice to work with. Cleanliness is another thing I'm concerned about so it's comforting to know that the tools at A Z Nails are sanitized and sealed before each use. It totally makes the experience nice and relaxing. SO if you are on the market for a new nail place, I 100% recommend giving A Z Nails a visit! You won't be disappointed. read more

I was very happy with my pedicure and especially with my full set acrylics. I didn't get the name of the woman who did my toes but she was very thorough. MyLe did a wonderful job with my full set (light pink powder color), was very keen on details, and very sweet & friendly. I appreciated her thoroughness & making sure I liked them! Overall, very happy & would recommend! Thank you!! read more

I will definitely be back the next time I need a manicure or pedicure. Also, I love shiny and glitter and this place has many selections on just what I need. The place is clean and the people here are so nice. Helen is my new favorite manicurist. read more

I have given them 3 chances and I really want to like AZ Nails because it's close to home. But after paying for a gel manicure and the tip before the service is done, asking the manicurist for rounded edges 5 times, and then continuously telling her my nails are being filed crooked, I gave up. All the nails on my left hand are slanted and I'm going to have to go back to ask for them to be fixed by someone else. Pictures don't show how slanted and bubbly they are. I'm so disappointed, hopefully they will fix them without a fuss. We shall see. read more

This has always been my go to nail salon since it's so close to home. Today, I called as soon as they opened to see if the had nail technicians available. They told to me to come in. I arrive about 9:30am for pedi and gel mani. They got started on me right away, I didn't have to wait at all. They were not busy and it was quiet in there. FYI - They had a policy change and require customers to pay prior to the services. I decided to pamper myself and choose AZ Premier Pedicure. Everything included was amazing. I enjoyed every moment of the pampering from the paraffin wax, sea salt scrubs, hot marbles and even the hot towel. The nail technician was a very sweet older lady (I didn't get her name) but I was not happy with the end result of my painted toes. I didn't bother checking them before I left the salon, because I have never had a problem before. After I arrived home, I was able to take a closer look and it looks a bit sloppy. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the pampering experience. I even tipped a 20% without realizing how my toes looked. I don't want to go back there to ask them to fix it. But next time I will make sure I double check their work before leaving the chair. The nail technicians should also double check their work. Philip was my gel mani technician and he did an amazing job! I had two cracked/broken nails and he use glue and some powder to seal it so I wouldn't have to cut it or have it break more. He recommended I shape my nails oval since they compliment my fingers and hands. I love the end results. Looks like I have found my nail technician. The pedi and gel mani took almost two hours to complete. I left around 11:15am. To my surprise they didn't get busy until maybe around 11. read more

Okay Okay Okay.... long overdue for a review! I have been coming to AZ nails for the last 2 or 3 yrs and Nancy has been doing a marvelous job with my gel Manicure and pedicure. I'm very particular with how I like my feet and nails done and she has it down to a T so when I come in I can just choose my color chill and relax. The atmosphere is always mature and relaxing. So if your in the area and need a mani/pedi stop in and check her out! Although I dont get acrylic nails... Kimmy does bomb nails too. read more

I went here because it's closer to my house compared to my other nail salon I normally go to and wanted to try somewhere different. I went in around 4PM on a Monday and it was empty, which was nice because they seated me right away. Philip did my gel manicure and I had shown him a photo of what I wanted, and he did a great job! He was very professional and thorough. Price was $27 for gel with a custom design. I will definitely come back to this spot! read more
