Chipped nails. 5 days after sns. First day paint all over fingers. Day 4 pink color turned yellow. Day 5 all nails chipping.

Worst manicure with sns ever! Paint all over cuticles and fingers. Chipped at day 5. Pink color turned yellow.

Not so white tips... top layer turned brown/pink w/in 3 days. So disappointed. Looks terrible! (Middle finger stayed whitest for comparison)

Disappointed. My service was good - I went about 1230 on a Sunday two weeks ago and they got me in and out as fast as possible, though it took some time still. To be expected. I'm disappointed because within 3 days of getting my brand new French gel manicure, the top color had darkened already. I've been told this can happen if you go in a tanning bed, but I didn't even see the sun! Just at the office like normal and the white tips look brown/pink on some nails. I've had gels and French gels many times and never have had the top coat ruin the manicure so fast. I wont be going back. I don't know if it's old product, not enough time setting or what, but not worth the $45 when the manicure is embarrassing 3 days later!

Dip powder chip

Usually I have a great experience here, but I got a dip powder manicure here 7 days ago and it has ALREADY chipped! I feel completely robbed. In the past, I've gotten dip powder manicures from other salons that have gone 4-5 weeks without chipping, and this one only lasted 6-7 days. It's probably worth saying that I don't do anything rough with my hands--I even wear gloves when I do the dishes! In addition to the chip, the top clear coat is coming off on several nails, which is totally bizarre. I currently live in Austin, TX and got this manicure on a weekend trip to visit my family in Charlotte--if I was still in Charlotte, I would be going back this weekend to ask them to fix it (which I'm sure they would--they're very nice!) Basically, this is a good salon and overall would recommend for gel and regular, but don't throw away money on dip powder.

This was my first visit here and I had a great pedicure. They take their time and did an excellent job. They even did a hot wax treatment. The salon was clean & very busy even at 12pm on a Sunday when they opened. I would make an appointment or go on a week night.

Showing off the fact that I was able to sip on wine while I got pampered with a pedicure.

It took 3 times before I finally found a nail spa that I loved in Charlotte. Moving here from Utah and having the same nail lady for almost 2 years, I felt hopeless and flat out done. A coworker friend suggested that I give Ballantyne nails a shot. I walked in and asked for a pedicure. Within 2 minutes I was already seated in the massage chair and asked if I wanted a beverage. They offered wine and being from Utah, I was surprised and ecstatic. Wine and a pedicure. Doesn't get better than that. The atmosphere was calm and quiet. Not much chatter going on until I made an effort to small talk with who I assume was the manager. I think her name was Judy? I wish I could remember. Anyway. Very glad that I had a positive experience. It was very needed to get a pedicure that evening. I will be returning and possibly inviting some friends to join me on my next trip! Thank you, Ballantyne nails for the wonderful service and taking care of me as your last customer for the night. I know what it feels like to want to go home at the end of a long day and you still managed to give me top notch service. I greatly appreciate it.

A complete waste of money
Class A.

I recently had a pedicure done at Ballantyne Nail Spa and as soon as I left, it was not even 10 minute when I began to notice that my feet felt like sandpaper. Now, I have been getting pedicures for 15+ years and this time has been the WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!!! I immediately went back to the salon and asked the manager if the lady who worked on my feet could smooth them out. There should be no reason my feet look the way that they do after a pedicure and especially when I gave her a really good tip! The manager said "No Do-Over's." and that I would have to come back 6 times in order for my feet to smooth out. REALLY?! So this is what you all are doing? Half a$$'N work and expect full pay and don't even have the decency, integrity, the morality to fix your mistake. Poor Service and not worth the money. Other salons have my feet smoothed to perfection. I will NEVER come here again.

Dry, peeling cuticles after 4 days. Wasted $30 for a gel manicure.

Previously, I'd been with my technician for 20+ years. I was referred to Vintage Nail Bar in Charlotte. Even though there were many salons closer to my new home, I went to see Steven based on this recommendation. I was not disappointed! He was so nice, friendly, and on time for my appointment. The salon was spacious and clean. My husband had a pedi with Vin and said he was great, too. There was another technician there, Pim, who seemed so kind - always smiling at incoming customers. I understand she does a great job with builder gel and will try her, too, in case Steven isn't available. For reference I am over 60 years young () and wanted a natural looking nail, thin on the sides and top. I'm so happy to have found this nail salon!

Kelly was my technician and she did a fantastic job. She was meticulous in the preparation of my nails for polish. She gave a very relaxing foot and lower leg massage, as well. Her polish application was perfect and she gave each coat time to dry. The result was a mani/ pedi that should last for a long time. It's already been three days with a lot of gardening and dish washing, and my hands still look perfect. Usually several nails would be showing signs of wear by now. I'm super happy and will definitely be back soon. I may have found my new "go-to" nail salon. Note: the place was busy on this Thursday afternoon. I'm glad I had an appointment.

Very importantly too, I'm very particular about all aspects of my nail bed health so over drilling, scraping or aggressive cuticle trimming is forbidden to keep them smooth, full and strong. Carla listened to my requests without being annoyed and was understanding and professional. Also first time using the Valentino Beauty Pure gel polish line (now known as V Beauty Pure). I usually favor DND gel polish but this salon doesn't carry the newest DND shades. V Beauty really is a highly pigmented gel polish and after several days I see that it's durable. I'm super pleased with everything about my experience at Vanity Nail bar from greeting, to service to check out! Just bring cash for the tips since they don't allow it to be processed in the charge transaction.

Gave me the shape I wanted and made sure I liked the color I selected. I only took a star off because the top coat wasn't applied across my whole nailbed on most fingers. My natural nail curves, so clear top coat usually is a couple of swipes down the middle and my sides get missed. I will make sure to communicate next time. I will be back!

You know it's time to find a manicurist when some one comments on your nails in a bad way…read more I had been searching for a few months for a new place that I could go to and was referred to Adriana by a friend after they over heard me talking about my nail problems. The place I originally went to my nail girl left and I couldn't follow her. Parking is a breeze and the location is in Elizabeth. Adriana truly is very personable and makes sure you are comfortable first by offering water, tea, etc. she made me a green late with chia seeds!!! Paraffin wax treatment was so awesome and my hands felt really really soft!! Been doing a renovation for months now so I needed help in the moisture department! Her attention to detail is really good and her music choices playing in the background are awesome. At one point we both were singing "open arms" by Journey!!! Good taste in 80s love ballads! Looking forward to my upcoming pedicure and I am really glad to have a new spot for my mani and pedi's.

To put this review simply: Adriana is the sweetest lady with a genuine love for what she does, she…read moreprovides nothing but quality products for her clients, she is fun to talk to, she is IMMACULATELY clean, and the overall experience was wonderful. So wonderful that I will not be going to anyone ever again here in Charlotte before I move. She has updated her room from the pictures that are on here, I did not take any because I was enjoying talking with her and choosing my polish, etc. But the room has a modern, warm design to it and I could have sat in there all day. She has all organic teas or chai lattes that she makes for you. I had organic peppermint tea while she did my one hour pedicure. She has both conventional polishes but also organic. I chose organic since I use all organic and natural products at home. This is what drew me to Organic Nails by Adriana. She takes her time, she will even help choose polish for people like myself who can't figure out which one I want! All of her lotions and spa products are organic/natural. She will chat with you (which we mostly did: learning about each other's family, talking about work, vacations, etc.) or she even says "I don't care if you sleep, this hour is for you". She does her job with passion and she does her job well. $40 dollars for a wonderful, perfectly executed, one-on-one, beverage included, relaxing organic environment pedicure? Yes.... worth EVERY penny! I cannot sing Adriana's praise enough. I will absolutely return. I know Yelp does not have a lot of reviews on her, but if you go to the site where you schedule an appointment for her, there are over 200 wonderful comments on how great she is. My nails look wonderful, I had a great time getting to know Adriana, and I appreciate her passion for her work and providing the best for her clients. 5+ stars!!
