I got a pedicure here and I had a wonderful experience. My feet haven't felt so soft in a long time and the polish looks great. Everyone in there was very friendly and the salon was very clean. read more

I have been searching for a truly good nail salon for what feels like forever, and I can finally say... I found it. What keeps me coming back is the consistency. I've been here several times now, and every experience has been genuinely great, which is honestly rare in the nail salon world. Heidi has done beautiful work for me, and most recently Mia absolutely "nailed it". Not only did she do an amazing job with incredible attention to detail, but she was also such a kind, warm soul. The kind of person who makes the whole experience feel relaxing instead of transactional. And a special shoutout to Chloe!!! Chloe is the lovely who handles the bookings/front desk, she is always so incredibly sweet and welcoming. She genuinely makes me feel at home every time I come in, greeting me with a big hug and such kindness. Those little touches matter, and she sets such a warm, positive tone from the moment you walk through the door. It's such a relief to finally find a place where I know I'm going to walk out happy every time. If you've been bouncing from salon to salon trying to find your place, this might be it. read more

10/10 recommend - I am very picky of nail salons due to having history of ingrown big toenails have had lots of unfortunate experiences that make me nervous to try new nail salons; Art Nails & Spa was wonderful! Clean, friendly, and peaceful environment with excellent care. * Holly did my pedicure today and she was absolutely fantastic. Her massage was great (girls we've all had the massage that felt of a feather so disappointing) she paid great attention to detail, and did not shame me for coming in with hot mess of neglected feet (it was rough lol) * Highly recommend this salon! Thank you Holly looking forward to next time already! read more

It had been 2 months too long that i had neglected myself in terms of self-care. So I decided to finally get a mani / pedi from a local salon called Art Nails & Spa. Art Nails & Spa is a local nail salon that offers manicures , pedicures and waxing. They are located in the Plaza Del Oro Shopping Center that is just south of the 76 Hwy, off of Frazee Rd. Also in this plaza is a 24 HR Fitness & a CVS. Although Art Nails & Spa does accept Walk-ins, for the best service and the least waiting time, it is highly recommended that you Call-in and make a scheduled appointment. There are times when they only have 1 or 2 clients and times when it is entirely packed. Another nice feature that they have is a rewards program. Simply check-in at the counter with your phone number and they log your visit with points. Earn points and over time, you can get Free services. Their interior is organized and clean. I love that they have tvs playing satisfying "foodie channels" playing soothing music for entertainment. But just like any salon, the customer service is friendly, inviting, caring & warm. Make your appointment, have a seat, select a service plan, enjoy a beverage (cocktails & coffee available) and be treated to a delightful time, by staff that caters to your needs. I chose a service that included a foot soak, leg massage, massage chair rubdown, sugar scrub, collagen foot mask, filing, trimming, adjusting, painting and of course, adding gel. This package also included a citrus rub, sea salt exfoliation, hot stones rub and a drink of my choice of an alcohol beverage. I've never been disappointed here and the level of care surpasses that of other salons I have been to and what I most appreciate is the communication they have with their clients. They are always double-checking to make sure they give you exactly what you want and more importantly, they are gentle in the process and never forceful. I highly recommend Art Nails & Spa for your self grooming needs. read more

Absolute fantastic service from start to finish! First, I made an appointment ahead of time over the phone with their front desk manager. Super easy to do ahead of time. As soon as I checked in with them for my appointment day of, I was seated with the nail technician and we went over what I was looking for. They are great at communicating and making sure clients are comfortable with their process. I came in for just a gel manicure with a base layer of dip and they accommodated me perfectly. The way they removed my previous gel/dip base, shaped my nails, took care of my cuticles, prepped my nails for dip and for gel, and doing designs was just exceptional. I've honestly never been to another nail salon that has been able to hit every one of those marks that I have been used to at a nail salon I grew up with. Not only was the process and service fantastic but the results were perfect too! My nail technician was able to match the exact design from a picture I brought in, and she was still able to follow my vision for it (different colors than shown in the photo). All of this was just under a hour as well for this service which just made my day! I'll definitely be back to enjoy this wonderful salon again. read more

I've been going here for about a year and a half now. About once a month. I typically pick just baby pink or white for my nails. This time I decided on a Christmas design and wow...I'm in love. Mia did these so perfectly that I had to book an appointment with her for next time. I never get designs & I fear that if I have any other nail tech anywhere else do designs on my nails moving forward that I'll be so so disappointed. She really set the bar that high & my fear of designs is gone now hahaha. Thank you!! -Paxton read more

Review on business practice: Art Nails is now under new management since the last time I went a few years back. I'm an out of stater who visits every now and then and have visited twice within the last year. The space is still clean, staff is still friendly, the color variety is also great. The ONLY thing or complaint that I have is that they prefer cash and if you use a credit card, or even ApplePay, they are a bit eh about it. In fact, the first time I went with the new management, when I paid they asked if I had cash bc they "only take cash". I pointed towards their computer/machine and mentioned that those usually take card and Apple Pay and that there was no sign or notice posted that they didn't take card. Since that visit, I was skeptical to return. I went back though! This time, I was allowed to pay with ApplePay, but they told me since it was card, I'd have to incur an additional fee for card use. Looks like that is improper business practice. As of 2024, businesses can't present consumers with new hidden fees on top of what was advertised in the purchasing price. Not sure how I feel about this or the business anymore. I'm willing to carry cash, but would like to warn fellow cardholders read more

Wow! If I could give 6 stars, I would! I really needed some self care and dropped by as a walk-in for a mani/pedi. While checking in, I noticed how beautiful the woman working at the desk's full set was, and asked if they might be able to do a full set instead of mani. She said, "absolutely no problem!" even though they were busy with at least 10 other clients already in the salon, and Angel started on my gel pedi first. I realized later that they had called in another nail artist, Holly, on her day off to do my full set for me I will be asking for Holly and Angel every time I make an appt from now on! I pulled up an inspiration photo for the full set and wasn't sure if they'd be able to match it but... WOW. It looks EXACTLY like I wanted, and I think even better than the inspo! Everyone in the salon is great at communicating and a pleasure to talk to. Holly was meticulous, obviously very skilled in her craft, and did an incredible job on the full set, making sure every nail was perfectly straight and even, and shaped exactly how I wanted it. I asked her to only file my natural nails minimally to reduce damage as I always do, and she did a great job of listening and not being too hard on my natural nail which is important to me. After she was done I looked at my nails and realized -- hands down, that was the BEST mani/pedi experience and full set of acrylics I have ever had in my life! I'm 37, and I've had my nails done in acrylics since I was 15, so I've had this done many, many times before. I can't wait to bring in my sister and niece. Also, after I left I jammed my nail on the gate a couple times by accident when walking my big dog, and the acrylics are SOLID. Not going to break anytime soon, and not even a chip from that! Angel did my pedicure and massage so well I almost fell asleep I was so relaxed, and every single nail is perfectly even. I have teeny tiny toes and it is kind of hard to do a pedicure on me, but she didn't cut them too short and made even my feet look good! The salon is spotlessly clean, beautifully laid out and relaxing with calm music and tv, and everyone working there was so kind and nice to talk to. They have sooo many color and design options. I can't wait to bring in more inspo! The girl next to me got sparkles with snowmen and snowflakes and they looked so good!! Each artist here is super talented and creative. Bonus, they are also conveniently located right off the 76 hwy next to Wulan ramen... yum! read more

So first of all, this is my first time at the salon and they were absolutely amazing. Chloe, which was in the front, she was ringing me out. I believe she was the owner. She was incredible, very personal, very friendly, very inviting. Now as far as my nails, they are beautiful, very detailed, very very, very, very satisfied. I will definitely be coming back. The nail tech that did my nails are, Pam who did my acrylic nails and Angel who did my pedicure and let me tell you they are gorgeous and I just know I'm going to get a ton of compliments on them. Needless to say I give them a five stars. I will be returning in two weeks. I don't see myself going anywhere else. Thank you Chloe thank you Pam,thankThank you Ange, and thank you to all the others. You guys are amazing and I can't wait to see you guys. read more

I came to this salon expecting a good experience based on the reviews, but unfortunately that didn't happen for me. It was my first time going to a salon in over 5 years and I was reminded why I don't go to nail salons. I came in as a walk-in for a regular basic pedicure. First, the lady did not use a new drill bit for the electric file. It was obviously used already. I also mentioned that at least 3 times that I wanted a classic regular pedicure, but the lady doing the pedicure did gel. I told it to two of the workers that I wanted a regular pedicure, not gel. I specifically said "not gel" as well. I didn't realize until she was already curing the polish and was frustrated but didn't say anything which was my mistake. I am just frustrated with salons pushing the more expensive option on customers. The lady also kept bumping the nail lamp on my nails, affecting the gel and cured them with dents. After the service was done, instead of $46 the lady said it was $51. I tipped because I know how it is working in customer service and paid $60 for a basic messed up pedicure. I won't be coming here again. read more

My absolute favorite nail shop. After new ownership( I hate change), I really wasn't sure if I would continue to come back however they haven't let me down. I've only had a problem once and that was over a year ago, but it was handled with so much care. I absolutely cherish Chloe (co-owner) and her attention to detail and personalization. She is always committed to making sure everyone is comfortable and served well even my kid. I absolutely love MIA!! She is my girl and can do literally anything. The Nail Guru! I'll always recommend them to whoever because it's hard to find great service and consistent work these days These photos are only a few and honestly serves no justice! read more

Always love my nails and services here. Everyone is so nice and the price is actually makes sense.

I did not have a good experience with my pedicure. I'd give that 1 star because the polish was messy and thick, the practice was unsanitary, my nails were cut too short without asking, and my skin was pinched multiple times, but the spa is beautiful and all of the other ladies seemed very nice. I think I just had a one off bad experience but it was bad enough that I will not return to this spa simply to avoid having the same pedicurist. read more

first time i came here i left happy. the second time they shaved my natural nails way too thin, didnt prep correctly at all (my nails started lifting the next day) and they kept mentioning my nails were too long, at least 4 times, the application was lumpy and lazy. it would be nice to not be judged at the way i want my nails. if they are going to be judgemental at least do the nails cute and correct. read more

So I spent almost 300 including tip for me and my kids to get our nails done. I have been here before with and without my kids and I enjoyed it before but today I was upset when we left. My daughter asked for a design and there was a hair that got on the nail And it won't come off and we didn't realize it until we were out the door. We don't like to make a big fuss but it's honestly ugly to look at . on top Of that when my daughter was asking for what she wanted the nail techs were speaking a different language and were laughing and we don't know what they were saying but it made my daughter uncomfortable and upset and it made me upset as well Since we think they were laughing at her. I love getting my eyebrows and nails done here but I won't be coming back because as customers we shouldn't feel like the people performing services we are paying for should be making us feel like they're talk about us. read more

I was greeted with a familiar face so that made my 1st time trying them out even better . Everyone was kind and attentive. Pricing was reasonable compared to what I've paid at some places. Get the deluxe package you won't go wrong and that would be for a mani and Pedi. They do however prefer cash and there is an ATM on site. There is a 2$ fee but they will give that back once you pay cash you get from ATM fair bargain. read more

So I don't really like to write negative reviews but... I had a big issue at this salon. I got my nails done there when I couldn't get in with my regular nail tech. They looked great and I do believe they create beautiful nails. My issue was that they drilled so deeply into my nail bed. It burned a lot when I would put my hand in the UV light but I didn't think much of it at the time. Fast forward a few months... my nails kept breaking even tho I still had gelx on them. They all were bending and breaking in the same spot which is where they were drilled too deeply. My nail tech and I could tell because even months later we could still see the color polish they used because we didn't want to drill deep enough to remove it and create a worse issue. Half of my nails bent and broke in the middle of the nail bed and it was extremely painful. 2 of my natural nails completely fell off after breaking. It's an issue I'm still dealing with since it takes quite a while for nails to grow out completely. read more
