    Courtney B.

    Very disappointed and frankly very upset. I will not be returning here. I am not one to go out and get manicures, having only gotten a grand total of 2 in my entire life (one in high school and one for my wedding). I have never had a pedicure. My friend convinced me to go out and get both as a fun adventure this weekend saying I would love the experience. First, the pedicure. The woman who worked on my feet was extremely rough and the experience was actually painful. I expressed I was in pain but she did nothing to change what she was doing or to help alleviate my pain. I looked at my feet to realize my toes were bleeding where she had been attempting to remove the cuticles. The lady had done nothing to stop the bleeding or tend to the wound, and she never put on gloves at any point considering she was now dealing with blood. She had me putting my feet, while bleeding, back into the water and I think the worst part is that they do not change this water between customers so later on a girl came in and soaked in her feet in the same water my bleeding feet had been in. Moving on to the manicure, things did not get any better. I was again in pain (something never experienced before during my other manicures) and she made a very half hearted attempt at filing my nails. Several of them are crooked and were not cut or filed at all. After she caused my fingers to start bleeding she asked me to pay before completing the manicure, something I was very uncomfortable with but agreed to in hopes to get me out of the store quickly. After paying she began to paint my nails, and I had to stop her and show her that one of my fingers was bleeding because she was about to paint over the blood that was on my nail. She removed the blood from my nail with acetone which was extremely painful to a fresh injury. It was also at this point that I noticed she was getting blood on the brush used to distribute the nail polish and then putting it back in the bottle. I did not have a pleasant or enjoyable experience and I consider this $40 absolutely and utterly wasted. I could have done a better job at home and I would not have injuries to show for it.

    what i wanted.

    very unbelievable service. i've been going to creative nails since i moved to south carolina in 2010. Me and my daughter go here all the time an get great service. Today we went an received terrible service with the owner and the bald male. christina usually fixes our nails because no one seems to get the shape or design right. She kicked us out of her nail salon with unfinished nails because we did not appreciate our nails and the attitude from the male. i will never return and you shouldn't waste your money here either.

    Always a pleasure! They're quick and do great work. Great selection of colors. I only rotate pink (military) and they are always nice! I also have enough points for a pedicure so that's cool too.

    I was looking for a new salon closer to my house in Lexington and decided to give Creative Nails a try. I'll definitely be going back soon for a pedicure. Sally did my manicure with gel polish and French tips. It looks so cute and I'm so pleased.

    Wonderful place, so glad I found it. Very clean, which is very important to me! Friendly staff! I got the gel nails, and a pedicure. They really did a good job! I love Nancy ~ she's awesome! I'm very satisfied, and I will definitely go back. I enjoyed the nice Decour and relaxed atmosphere! Great prices too! I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family!

I arrived at 12:15 and was checked in. I never got to my room till 12:45 then waited for another 10 min till my actual message started. My time of finish should have been 3:00. They said I was done at 2:45. My shower and body scrub was maybe 15 minutes total and felt rushed. With my late start and the amount times they left room and I waited, My done time should have been closer to 3:30. This is not the first time this has happened to me and I have read its something that seems to happen a lot. Also, when your done they expect a tip. A lady that finished up while I was waiting got the massage as a gift and they insissted on a tip from her. Tips are not required and this was one issue I had in my first visit. 2/28/26 - Been going for a few times now and this last time I was not happy with the service. First, I chose Therapist #2 from their drop down menu seeing they don't list the names which they really need too, but now I know who they are. I had already tried them all but #2 so I chose her. However, when I got there I got #1, the one I usually have, who really is a nice lady and I like her, but I was set on trying someone new. So that was the first disappointment. The next was during my entire massage 2 things kept happening which prevented me from really relaxing and getting into the massage. One, the therapist's phone just kept buzzing in her pants like every 5 minutes and it was pretty noticeable. Second, it seemed that my therapist was also the desk clerk, so every time someone came in, she had to go out front so again it was kind of hard to relax when she was stopping to tend to someone else. My opinion, If she needed to take care of the front, then she should not have been doing any massages. So another issue I had was, I always do a 2 hour massage. This time, seeing I got a discount for being a member, I decided to try a table shower that is supposed to be 15 minutes long. So, my entire time there should have been 2 hours and 15 minutes. I got less than 2 hours if you count the time that she was stopping to tend to the front office. So as far as I am concerned, I did not get my money's worth. This is strike number 2, not sure I am going back. I noticed another massage parlor down the street from here I may try now. It's too bad seeing I liked this location and the ladies and girls are really nice and they do, do a good job. The table shower was amazing as well. ****************************************************************** 7/13/25 - I decided to give this place another try. And I am changing my review from a 3 star to a 5 star. This last visit has very much improved since my first visit. Anna was amazing. She listened to my concerns and request and fulfilled them completely. I can not wait till my next visit with her. 5/25 So I just recently had a massage at the Irmo location. I was going to give a 4 or 5 star rating during my massage, but they had some technical issues with the speaker in the room kept loosing connection with blue tooth and kept trying to fix that, taking time from my massage. I finally had to say I was good with no music. The therapist was really good with the massage and I had planned on still giving at least a 4 star rating until It was time to give a tip. First, I had 2 hour Swedish massage which was $140 with tax, so 20% of that is about $30. On their website it states "Tips can be paid via Cash, Zelle, Venmo, Paypal, or Credit Card. If the service you received meets your expectations, please consider tipping 15% to 30%". So I went to pay for the tip with my Credit Card and was doing $25 on the $140. They then brought my attention to a sign that they have on the counter that basses' tips per hour. So basically, they wanted me to double my tip. Well, when I tip in restaurants its based of the price of the meal. Then they kept telling me in cash was better because of the CC fee which I had no issue with and told them that. But the fact they seemed to try to get me to tip by the hour and talking about paying that in cash (which I never carry) just put a sour taste in my mouth. Which is a shame because I really did like this place and really enjoyed my massage. Now, I think they need to post that sign on their website, so people know in advance what they are expecting in tips and that they rather get their tips in cash. It just makes me feel very uncomfortable when I am not aware of something. I also find it a little annoying that you cannot select a masseuse by name on the website.

I've taken many cooking classes and this is the first one that has taught me the origins of the food as well as provided an in-depth class about how to use food to better my health. We learned a term called "mother" and it's importance to the process of sourdough break making. I'll let you learn more about that when you take the class. I've already signed up to take the class again because I know I missed things trying to take in all the information.

She took my seriously outdated hairstyle (if you could even call it that) and updated it with a fabulous new look. She asked questions and listened to my answers, but also used her professional knowledge and talent to make my hair look better than I thought possible. She also told me how she was styling it so that I can recreate the look at home. For once, I feel like I have a cute hairstyle that I can maintain until my next appointment! The salon itself is beautiful. I was a little confused when I walked in and there was no receptionist. However, after watching people come in and out for a few minutes, I decided that the lack of a receptionist really worked well there. It felt more like clients were walking into someone's living room rather than a hair salon. The artwork was gorgeous, if you're into that sort of thing, and the location is perfect for anyone who lives or works in Columbia. Overall, a very pleasant experience.
