I didn't catch the name of the gentleman who did my dip powder, but he was meticulous and my nails were perfect. Additionally, the salon was very clean and I only had to wait 5 min on a rainy Sunday. He offered me a beverage and made me the most delicious Vietnamese coffee I've ever had! I'll definitely make an effort to return when I'm in the Towson/Cockeysville area!

So far, the owner and Ryan (pictured work) have done my nails. I'm so happy. They always give me the exact shape that I want. I request "natural", so that they aren't that thick, and they... NAIL it. I almost didn't want to write a review, so that I can always get squeezed in (never been a problem), but they deserve these 5 stars, for SURE

The manager ended up providing the service since everyone else was busy. She did a great job. I just needed a clean up and she did exactly what I asked for.

They do require a $15 deposit to book an appointment which can be used toward the service you receive or you can keep rolling it forward as your deposit for future appointments.

I was charged for TWO nail repairs. The nail tech did not repair a single nail. Instead, he "popped…read moreoff" two of my old acrylics and charged me for "nail repairs". He also did the wrong cat eye color and had to grind it off in order to fix that. I was charged $75, $14 of which was for repairs that were not conducted. I normally pay $60 for a fill WITH design at my normal salon. I will NOT be back. I only went here today because my normal nail tech does not availability until next week and my nails were looking crazy. Also, the salon was in various states of disrepair. The furniture is cracked and looks super run down. I would not recommend coming here unless you like being overcharged.

I was asked what type of service I wanted, and I requested a dip powder manicure. The receptionist quickly found a technician who was available to assist me. Although the technician did not introduce herself, the receptionist referred to her as Holly. Holly was very professional and, after I mentioned a recent shoulder surgery, she was mindful and handled my hands with care. Despite a possible language barrier, Holly understood everything I asked, including questions about the cost of the service. There was also a digital menu board nearby that listed the available services and their prices. Holly offered me a beverage without being asked, with options including water, Coke, Diet Coke, red or white wine, and mimosas. It was also nice to see that the soda cans were full-sized, which is rare these days. I paid in cash and was not charged a credit card fee, which many businesses now require. From start to finish, the service took about an hour. I will most likely return and will request Holly.

Please avoid this place at all costs! Going here turned out…read moreto be a shocking experience. I went in for a fulll set with single color gel polish and left the store with crooked, quarter-of-an-inch-thick, stumpy things that could not pass for nails. Each nail went in a completely different direction and did not align with my fingers at all. The sides were filed down in an odd way and it felt like I had Chicklets gum squares glued to my fingers.  I felt completely trapped. Whenever I brought up my concerns to the tech, I was promptly ignored. I felt stuck finishing the service because I didn't want to walk out halfway through with missing nails. They looked so awful that I felt embarrassed and had to hide my hands the entire time at the function I originally got them done for. Here's the real kicker: as soon as I got home, I spent around 4 hours (no exaggeration) manually filing them off. In the end, I paid $75 for the horrible set and the real kicker was the $15 charge just for cat's eye polish, just to spend over 4 hours in pain fixing their mistake, leaving my nail beds incredibly sore and ripped up. Do yourself a huge favor and go somewhere else!

I stopped by Lele Nails on a Saturday for a pedicure and an acrylic overlay fill-in. As a walk-in,…read moreI found the shop pretty quiet--just one customer and three employees. It seemed like two employees handled nails, while one focused on pedicures. I explained what I wanted and was told there would be a bit of a wait. I planned to remove my current acrylics and start fresh. After looking at my nails, Lele recommended I try dip powder. I'd tried it once years ago and wasn't a fan, but she was persuasive, so I gave it another shot. I chose a natural-looking pink for my hands and paired it with a gel pedicure, which her sister handled. The visit took several hours due to their limited staff, but the team was so friendly and accommodating that the time passed quickly. Before I left, Lele gave me a card and suggested booking an appointment next time to avoid the wait, as they're short-staffed. I'm not sure about their ability to do intricate designs on long nails, but while I'm sticking with short, natural nails, this will definitely be my go-to spot.
