    Happened the day after

    Nail polished chipped like after 2 days and that was for gel. At the salon I had a guy who kept burning me with the dremel and it came out sloppy

    Builder gel (pink flower) and acrylic nail other set.

    My daughter got her nails done by Tommy her nail bed is small, her nails never last a full three weeks, until her next appointment. Her nails looked amazing. Thankful for the referral. Thank you, I had the BEST experience with Tommy at Alchemist Nail Salon in Lynnhaven! His customer service is outstanding -- friendly, attentive, and professional. The quality of his work is exceptional, with amazing attention to detail and care. My nails came out absolutely beautiful , and I could tell he truly takes pride in his craft. If you're looking for the perfect combination of skill, professionalism, and a welcoming atmosphere, I highly recommend booking with Tommy. One of the best nail techs I've ever had! Patricia

    Alchemist Nail Spa is laid out quite nicely. Although they are inside on Lynnhaven Mall their pricing is reasonable, which I can appreciate. The quality and cleanliness at this spa is far superior to their competitors. During their grand opening I attempted to get in for an appointment but their turnout was phenomenal and the wait for services was crazy long. I booked with Danny after I complimented my neighbors nails. She recommended Danny so I rushed to make an appointment with him. My first appointment with Danny, I got a full set (short) with deep French design and nude powder. I also got a French gel pedicure. I was extremely happy with my full set and pretty satisfied with the French pedicure. Danny's nail retention is A1, that first set lasted 1 month before my fill and I was still receiving compliments on how beautiful they were. My most recent appointment, I kept the length on my full set, again with a deep French, this time with Black and Whit tips on each hand. I showed Danny the photo and he effortlessly recreated the design. My fill and gel pedicure were around $110 before tip, excellent price for the services I received. Alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages complimentary with service, Cash preferred, with ATM on site.

    Update : Two nails popped off after only TWO DAYS! Never going again! I asked for a simple set, unbelievable.

    Fingernails after manicure at Alchemist salon in Lynnhaven Mail

    I had my nails done at this salon on January 1st and the polish was soft and dented (see index finger in picture and then slid off my nails within 4 hours of leaving the salon. I had to go back and have them repainted.

    My chipped and terrible pedicure polish

    Would give it zero stars if I could! This place is the WORST place if you are trying to relax. I walked in trying to get a pedi while my husband Christmas shopped. I was told that someone will be able to take me no problem. They were CLOSING soon I had no idea because the mall was open and it was 4:20 pm. Someone SHOULD HAVE INFORMED ME they were closing soon! I would have not set down. So the oldest man started doing my pedi. I chose the 48$ milk and honey "package". Ha! MILK AND HONEY!! Hah what a joke! I ask if I choose the milk and honey does it come with gel polish he says YES! I agree! I had regular polish on my toes- he takes it off with nail polish remover THEN PUTS THE DRILL ON FULL BLAST on my feet...??? Why is that necessary?! I ask him if he can just file my nails or clip them? I realize at that point there is a SERIOUS language barrier and he does not understand what I am saying at all. I flag a manager down and tell him that the drill is too rough. NEXT he starts in on the "massage" - proceeds to try and rub my feet and legs with EXFOLIANT. Who wants a massage with ROCK SALT!? It felt horrific! I had to flag someone down again and tell them I am pregnant and my feet are softer- I don't need a 10 min exfoliant massage. Then to wrap it all up at the VERY last minute this other nail tech informed me they were getting ready for an after work event and I came in late...?? OKAYYYYY WHY DIDNT ANYONE TELL MEEEEEE!? I would have not CAME IN HERE!!!! Thennnn of course the gel polish the man PROMISED id get at the beginning is now a 15$ extra fee!?! I'm not paying an extra 15$ for the WORST PEDICURE I EVER GOT IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!? I told him to put some red polish on so I can go! He did the dryer table doesn't work and everyone was rude! If you go in here don't get this man in the picture!

    Nice, clean place with a friendly staff. I took my daughter and her friend here recently. We were walk-ins on a Saturday and were seated quickly. They do have set prices on certain services, if you come in with a picture they will most likely let you know the price after the nails have been done. Both my daughter and her friend showed photos of what they wanted and they produced a stunning version of those photos. Great quality and amazing service.

    My daughter's nails...

    I want to first start off by saying that I have never been here before. So this is as organic as possible. The services provided were for two acrylic nails, acrylic removal, and a kids manicure with gel. Starting with the positive: * the lady who did my nails was very kind and was trying to see why no one has come to do my daughter nails. * I also felt like they accommodated us quickly Now for the negatives: * Ill start with my daughter. I spent over $25 for a manicure for her. This consisted of a gel set and that's it. It originally cost 18 i believe but because I asked them to cut her cuticles, it was an EXTRA $8. What's the point of calling it a manicure if its not?? And on top of this, her nails have not LASTED. I went here on 6/28. So not even two days later, most of her nail polish came off. So it was a wasteeeee offfff money. Plus, I felt like they were rushing to get her nails done and over with and the way they would grab her arm. They also had no booster seat so this place does NOT cater to your child and their needs. You are better off not even bringing your kid here and doing them at home. * now for my nails. Like I said, the lady who did my nails was very kind but holy cow, the execution was just not it. One of my nails is practically pointing to the ceiling. Wtf? I've spent just as much other places and they were top tier. Besides the execution, the lady i had was very nice. So there's that. * the next issue i had was the guy up front. We went in asking for just 4 regular manicure and then we were asked to wait. This is fine because they looked busy. We didn't wait that long but as we were waiting we did change our mind and wanted two acrylic sets. I wasn't sure if they can accommodate a quick change of service but the guy said something along the lines that we were "messing him up" along with a sigh of annoyance and laughter. Idk but it was rude and rubbed me the wrong way. * they offer drinks (mimosa and all that stuff) but we were never offered which I feel should be part of the services... * they complained about having to take off textured nails and handed off my cousin to someone else. She also said that he was getting frustrated about her nails, kinda giving the vibe that he didn't want to do it. * some people were rude and honestly it gives the vibe that they dont like the work that they do Overall rating: 2/10. Its only a 2 because like I said, the lady i had was nice. Closing notes: *I would never come back * I cannot recommend this place. *pls dont bring your kid * I will recommend this place instead: Hatch Nail Bar. Better spending your hard earned money here and Actually be happy with the results *for both mine and my daughters nails i spend over 100... so yeah.

    I wish I would have avoided this place. It's decorated nicely but nothing else. The technique and customer service are horrible. I was going to get a pedicure and fill but after the terrible experience with the pedicure I canceled the fill. I needed one acrylic toe and I got French. They literally gave me someone that couldn't do either well. My toe is bulky and the paint job is sloppy and horrible. Staff continuously walked by while he repeatedly painted and wiped off polish numerous times. Nobody offered to help the poor guy. I had had enough and finally asked him to get help. The older lady wasn't any better but I was getting stir crazy after nearly 2 hours. I explained to the girl at the front counter that I was not happy and they shouldn't be assigning him to do those services and she offered no resolution other than for me to sit back down and see if someone else could do it. All that and I paid $82 for a crap job. Never again! I attached what I asked for vs what I got.

    So service was great and the place was nice and clean. However the nail tech I got did not understand what color and effect I really wanted but I figured it out once my daughter was able to tell her nail tech what she wanted and she understood. However I kinda feel like my nails were done pretty sloppy and the gel isn't even lasting long. I had to keep correcting the tech cuz they kept scratching the color off with how they were apply the nail effect on. Pictures below are of one hand after only 1 day. I liked that they gave discount to health care workers and that's why I chose to go with my daughter. She loved everything about the place. I will try again probably with a different nail tech though.

    I am a big small business supporter, unfortunately I cannot give this place more than one star. I came to have a regular manicure and all the technician did was literally paint my nails, to have my nails painted I can do that at home. You can see it on the pictures. Definitely, not a second try. Update: after speaking to the owner, he stated that the reason why this happened was because I didn't get gel. I was satisfied with the paint not with the cleaning of the nails. Also, if the owner's statement is true and I had a Colombian technician I wouldn't have not gone to this nail salon in first place.

    New to the area & a friend of ours recommended this place! Went on a Friday with my husband so it was a tad bit busy but we were in a chair within 5 minutes. Henry did my mani & pedi & he was absolutely sweet. Always asked if the nails were good to my liking while doing them (& they were!) so I appreciate him for that! My husband & I got the Milk & Honey treatment & we absolutely loved it! We both agreed that we will be doing this together once a month so we will back!! thank you so much!! PS: they do accept card but i highly recommend you pay with cash to save that 5% fee!

    Loved my hand painted nail art by Kevin! He is creative and interprets my ideas well

    Kevin is an amazing nail artist. He knows exactly what I am looking for when I show him one pic and interprets it even better.

Not sure if I would get the tint again but I highly recommend the lamination. Vibe is super cute and everything is clean!

I'll be honest - I made more than 1 u-turn getting to the new spot, which is only directly accessible going northbound on Independence. If you're traveling south, you have to make u-turn. And if you miss it going north, you may have to make several. Now that I know where it is, I won't miss it again! Look for the red State Farm sign at the entrance to the professional center before turning in. I do really like this new spot which is solely for EA Esthetics. The entrance is lovely and welcoming, with beautifully-displayed retail merchandise to browse while you wait for your esthetician. It seems like an overwhelming selection of serums, lotions, washes, etc. but you will get an expert-recommendation after a consult with Emily or the other staff. On this visit, I was taken back for my treatment right at my appointment time. Amanda was kind enough to make sure I was comfortable before beginning - I was in for a long haul (2+ hours!). About halfway through treatment, I got chilly and she had a cozy blanket ready for me. She explained each step of the process so I knew what to expect and I was so happy with the results. I was a little scared at how dark my brows were initially, but as promised, they lightened to a perfect tint within a couple of days. Their website is so easy to use for booking and gives a detailed description of service and prices. For both my brows and lashes, it cost over $200, but this definitely seems to be competitive with other VB spas. I was incredibly happy with my results and will return for touch-ups, as recommended, in a few weeks. I have had a great experience each time I have been in and highly recommend Emily and Amanda for any skincare need!
