Update: Tiffany, one of the managers, was super kind and gave me a call after my initial manicure…read more She offered a partial refund, which I was happy to accept as opposed to a full refund, as the work was still done and the resulting nails were fine. She also worked with another manager at the store and was able to set up my next appointment with a specific tech - I believe it was Emily. Tiffany was very communicative via both text and DM on there Instagram account, which I used to schedule my next appointment. She was also there when I arrived for that appointment to ensure things went smoothly. Emily was very attentive during my service, and ultimately I was happy with this set. I did SNS and Emily finished with a gel top coat. Since I prefer to not have gel that is cured by UV, I may not return regularly. However, this salon has a huge selection of not only regular colors, but specialty colors as well, such as cat eye and jelly polishes. Jelly polishes are definitely on my list to try in the future, so I'll likely be back for that. I very much appreciate the team's outreach and support after my last review, and it's clear that they care greatly for the service they can provide their customers.

Okay, first things first... the parking situation is dire. I wish one of the reviews mentioned…read moreparking, because the situation is in need of help. No parking in front of the nail shop and no validated parking. If you live in the building above it's great! If you're a college student and can walk it's also great! If you're not in one of those two categories... buena suerte. The nail shop itself is very clean and has the cool neon signs that are all the rage. The music consists of the top hits. During my visit I heard several Beyoncé songs. They also give you wine/sparkling wine to drink. So the vibes are all there. I got a pedicure and it was okay. I wasn't overly impressed. All things considered, it's cool but I don't see myself spinning the block (coming back).

Services were good the first couple time and then a steady significant decline. The ladies are nice…read morehowever they have no problem packing human bodies in their tiny space like sardines. The male nail tech seems disgruntled and is low vibrational. The last 3 times he did my nails they either chipped, smudged or 1 nail completed fell off. It's a shame because he has potential to be an excellent nail tech if he can put his ego to the side and learn how to serve his clients. After giving me a new nail set at my last fill in appointment he told me my next appointment will be a new set: I told him no way. They seem to view their clients as walking ATMs--it's an uncomfortable feeling: They constantly badger you to do new sets, gel mani-pedis or expensive "spa" pedicures even after you've told them specifically the kind of services you want/prefer--it's more "them" focused than client focused. Btw,I was never thanked for my $20-$25 tips --ever. This last appointment took the cake--nail tech dude nicked my skin with his super sharp nail tool and blamed MY skin for "growing too close to the nail". This happened after leaving me under the fan for 15 minutes while he enjoyed a phone conversation right in front of me--so I knew it was because he wasn't paying attention--he seems resentful of his customers and unhappy to do this kind of work. When I arrived for my appointment (no such thing really because they treat everyone as a walk-in) he and a young girl didn't move to seat me, I had to ask them if they were working today in order to mobilize them--mind you I was the only customer. That said, I won't be back. I'm big on customer service and positive energy and I pay well for it, but it's not to be found there.

Y'all... I thought I had found my new nail shop at The Nail Shop…read more The environment is exactly my vibe--muted gray tones, minimalist decor, subway tiles, modern finishes, soft music playing in the background, and plenty of parking right out front. The place is clean, relaxing, and has an impressive selection of colors. The massage chairs were so comfortable I was literally drifting off to sleep. The prices were also cheaper than other salons I've visited for the exact same services, and it wasn't overcrowded. Walking in, I was ready to give this place 5 stars. Then the service happened. I arrived at 12:30 PM and didn't leave until 4:30 PM. FOUR HOURS. For a pedicure, nail removal, full-set of new Gel-X nails (no designs and nothing fancy). I understand Gel-X removal can take some time, but my pedicure alone should not have taken over 2.5 hours. The first technician was fine until it came time to paint my toenails. The polish application was honestly terrible. My toes looked like little stubs. Of course I spoke up, and thankfully I requested Pin, who had excellent Yelp reviews. She ended up fixing the work and did a much better job. There were also some organizational issues. I wanted my eyebrows waxed, but apparently someone forgot to plug in the wax machine, so the wax was still cold and hardened. How does that happen? Another thing: if you're going to keep clients for four hours, please offer something. Water, snacks, crackers--anything! I was absolutely hangry by the end of my appointment. The only reason I was finally offered water was because I was coughing from a cold, and that was toward the very end of my service. Overall, the salon itself is beautiful and relaxing, but the actual service experience didn't match the aesthetic. If you decide to visit, I'd strongly recommend booking with Pin or the owner. They seem to be the ones ensuring the work is done correctly. Would I come back? Maybe. The potential is definitely there, but they need to tighten up the service side of things.

Now The Spa at the Hotel has come to conquer the Luxury Spa experience in College Park. Vibe: I LOVE IT! Upscale, Intimate, and the amenities are perfect! Quality: Luxury hidden in College Park! I booked a Swedish Massage to start my bday week. They gave me a discount and a little gift, that was super sweet! So unexpected. Tyesha was fantastic. The hot stones put an extra touch on my visit. I definitely give this place 5 stars! Will be coming back more often. Parking is free up to 12 hours, you can use the amenities of the Hotel; pool, gym, and you can use the relaxation area in the Spa. You could totally be here for 8 hours. My suggestion to get the most out of this experience is book early! They also have a salon! Loved to see stylist of all races! Love it! Since this is just up Rhode Island, it's quick in and out the city! Thank YOU to the girls for being amazing! Xoxo

What do lovers do when they come back to each other? I've actually NEVER spin the block with anyone…read moreI've ever been with. Ever! This year however has me forgiving people and things. Life is too short. I had another heartbreak this year and my beloved nail tech left my salon of eight years. I was devastated and tried to use other people at the salon but it just wasn't the same. Nails were not done properly. I had to ask around and Bella kept being brought up. Even though I had a terrible experience before I tried it again. I have a class at Golds and with having another trip on the weekend I said, "why not" and "spinned the block". I'm glad I did. I didn't have an appointment but luckily I got paired with Starr and well it's a match! I love his work! Omg! He shaped my nails and cut them all the same length! He's perfection! So the moral of the story is... sometimes chapters close for good reason. I loved my old nail tech and he loved me but something's just end and that's okay. Point in case, I think this nail tech might be a little better. God, the Universe, call it what you want but sometimes a closed door is allowing you to open what you need. This year has been full of unexpected surprises, a great new nail tech is one I'll take as a win in my book. And so in the case of a lost beloved nail tech, as always, she lives happily ever after. I'll be back! I think I found a new place to call home!

Let's just get this out of the way...yes, I drive over an hour to get my nails done. And yes,…read morepeople think I'm a little crazy. Then they see my nails and suddenly it all makes sense. Bella Lifestyle Nails & Spa is worth every single mile. The salon itself is absolutely gorgeous. It's bright, spotless, beautifully designed, and has more than enough parking (which, let's be honest, deserves its own five stars these days). The pedicure chairs are incredibly comfortable--you could probably convince me to move into one--and the nail stations are spacious, so you're not elbow-to-elbow with the person next to you. If you're someone who spends 20 minutes trying to pick a polish color...good luck! Their color selection is incredible, and they have a pedicure for just about every mood, budget, and level of "I deserve to be pampered today." Now for the real reason I make the drive...Sky. Sky's attention to detail is simply unmatched. He doesn't rush, he doesn't cut corners, and he genuinely cares that every single nail is perfect before you leave. I've had countless people ask me where I get my nails done, and the answer is always the same: "Bella Lifestyle...and ask for Sky!" Could I find a nail salon closer to home? Of course. Would I? Absolutely not. When you find someone who consistently does exceptional work and makes you leave feeling like a million bucks, you don't let them go. If you're looking for a beautiful salon, outstanding service, and a nail technician who treats your nails like they're his masterpiece, Bella Lifestyle Nails & Spa is the place. Ask for Sky...just don't take my appointment.
