The man working there was extremely rude. I had booked an appointment for two people for Gel Polish. Over the phone, I was told the service would include cleaning, cutting, shaping, and applying the gel polish. One of my daughters was helped by a female staff member who did a decent job--she shaped the nails properly and applied the polish well. The entire process took about 25 minutes. However, for my other daughter, the only male staff member in the salon handled the service. She has short nails, and he neither shaped them nor applied the polish properly. Several nails were smudged, and the cleaning was poorly done. He rushed through it in barely 10 minutes but still charged $30, just like the other. When I pointed out the issues and expressed my dissatisfaction, he didn't apologize or show any concern. I paid with a credit card, which incurred an additional 3% fee, as their listed prices are cash-only. On top of that, he insisted on receiving a tip in cash. When I declined to tip due to the poor service, he rudely said, "Thank you, see you no more." The attitude and behavior were appalling. The previous management was much better. Unfortunately, the current staff lacks professionalism, and I would not recommend this place to anyone. I will not be returning. read more

I went two weeks ago to get a fill - the guy ended up talking me into getting GelX. "It's a little more expensive but it lasts longer" he said. He's the professional so I went with it. I wanted coffin shape. They were NOT coffin. He did my toes too, they look awful. After one week the nails started to come off - three came off! I kept having to glue them back on. What a waste of money! It was expensive, didn't last at all, and it wasn't what I wanted. I won't be back. I used to go here when it was aloha nails and I liked it but this experience put me off. read more

Tiffany did such an amazing job on my short ombre nails. So glad to have finally found this spot. Definitely will be coming back!

I have been going to a different nail salon for over a year. I tried AO Nails because they open at 9:00am on Sundays which is so nice and convenient as most don't open until 10:00am. First it is sooo nice inside! Second everyone's very nice and attentive. Third my toes have never looked and felt so nice even 2 weeks after my appointment. My new go to nail salon for sure! read more

The Salon was recently renovated. The owners are so kind and welcoming. They offered us drinks. It was very easy to schedule an appt. The color selection was good. They gave our free gifts which was so kind during Mother's Day. Pay cash and the amount is less. I would come back for the experience. read more

This place doesn't deserve ANYONE'S business. I booked an appointment here based on their reviews and now I'm convinced they must have been paid or are fake because WOW. I booked a simple pedicure a day ahead and was sat with Nina. She never asked me how I wanted my nails done and proceeded to cut them (which wasn't needed) square despite them being obviously round. I told her I prefer them round and she rounded the end of the points she squared - not the entire nail (see pics). I asked her for the file but she didn't understand me and kept going. I was super irritated at this point and was just going to fix them before she painted them and assumed she'd proceed to clean around the nail as is normal and expected in a pedicure but she didn't. She started in on the lotion/scrub which was super uncomfortable because she insisted on scratching it into my skin rather than working it around gently. I was super tense at this point and knew I was going to end up stopping the pedicure early but didn't know what to say. However, after a quick callus treatment and a horrible attempt at a massage (moving the lotion around with no pressure), I politely asked her to stop and requested the attention of the receptionist. I thanked Nina, but I explained to the receptionist that I was super frustrated that she was unable to communicate with me, that it was rushed and unenjoyable (this was all in less than 30 mins) and that they looked worse than when I arrived. I showed her my toes and she proceeded to call the owner. They offered to have me sit with someone else to which I said I would happily come back and do, but was advised that was not an option and had to pay. The fact that this owner employs people who cannot effectively communicate to their customers but still expects them to give a satisfactory experience tells me they lack any integrity or basic business ethics. And to expect customers to pay for poor, uncompleted service is nothing short of fraud. Stay away from this place. read more
