    Saw good reviews about Kevin he did a great job thank you
    Rene C.

    Yes I saw the reviews. Went to Kevin not a big talker which that is fine. He did a great job and cleaned up my nail beds at the end.

    Clean salon! Employees were friendly even though I walked in close to close. The woman who did my dip manicure did a nice job! A little pricey compared to my usual places.

    I LOVE THIS PLACE. Anna, I need you to move to NY so you can do my nails till I die. She hooked my nails up! Took 1.5hours but it was worth it! They look so good and it is so precise. The picture I showed her, she did exactly! She took her time filing and shaping my nails, she took her time choosing the right colors... you can tell she loves what she does and it shows in the nails. The prices for the salon are a little pricey, but I mean.... Look at my nails!!! They look so good!!! Anna!! If you ever leave, you better tell me so I can go get my nails done by you wherever you are!! I found a great nail artist and I am destroyed you are in SC. Please think about moving to NY!! Those of you in the area, ask for Anna! You will not be disappointed!

    I love this place! Every time I come, I'm treated like a friend. I didn't have an appointment but was hoping to be squeezed in since my schedule has been so hectic. I got in after only a 10 minute wait and treated as though I'm the only one in the shop (which I know I'm not, I'm not a diva haha). I got a pedicure and it looks great. I will definitely be back for any of my mail and/or eyebrow needs!

    I have always loved my nails once I leave here!! They never disappoint! Asked for a nail designed and love it! I wish I would have tipped more.

    This has quickly become my new favorite place to get my nails done. The employees are very friendly and have already remembered me by name. They listen to what I want and offer suggestions as well. My nails always look fresh and and clean. Even when it's busy they don't rush to get to the next person. They take their time to make sure you're happy with your nails. They cater to women, men, and children here which makes it a very inclusive shop. There's tons of colors to choose from and they're keeping up with hygiene standards.

    I went to distinctive nails for the first time today and they are AMAZING!! Probably the best experience I've ever had in a nail salon. Everyone was super nice, the atmosphere was so relaxed and friendly, and the services are out of this world! I got a classic pedi with gel polish and not only did it turn out great I received the longest foot massage ever. It was simply amazing, and my full set is on another level! Cathy is AMAZING!! I left 100% satisfied with my nails and the hand message afterwards!!! It's just amazing! I'll definitely be back!

    Very clean place. Sweet staff. Great nail job. And they served us a glass of wine! A bit far of a drive, but worth it for the cleanliness.

    I'm sold on Distinctive Nails! My daughter (5) asked me if we could have a girl's day, and we decided to get pedicures! Her first ever, so she was super excited. Upon arriving, we were told there would be a 40 minute wait. We decided to head over over to a little cafe (The Rustic Muffin) while we were waiting, and I believe she was the owner, but I sadly didn't get her name, told me she would come grab us if they could get us in more quickly. She actually came over to get us in about 10 minutes or less! My daughter was happy to sit in one of the cute children's pedicure chairs, and I was seated right next to her. The nail tech who worked on her pedicure was very nice and patient with her, which is good, because she is very ticklish. He did a great job painting her toes hot pink with glitter on top, and she absolutely loves them! My nail tech, the owner (?), was also very nice and personable. Easy and fun to talk to! My pedicure was great as well! She was very thorough and took her time making sure my feet were smooth, my polish looked good, and I was enjoying myself! It was a great experience, and I will be returning!

    So this 4 star is for the cleanliness and comfort of the salon and if I could, Heather would get a 5 star.

    I've had two different technicians here and both have been amazing. The inside has been recently re…read moredone and looks clean and sleek. My brows have been perfect and I'm so happy to finally find a place that gets them just right! Unlike most places the wax doesn't break my sensitive skin out. I recommend Kayla, and getting the package to save money if you're always getting waxed (but three get one free)

    I happened to park in the back of the store without realizing it so I entered through the back &…read morenot the front. Since I didn't realize it was the back door, I waited back there for 5 minutes for someone to come and greet me. The door chimed when I walked in and the door was unlocked so there was no indication that I was actually walking in the back and not the front. I walked up the middle aisle to see if anyone was there and saw an esthetician lying on the table in a wax room that I passed. I stopped and asked "did I walk in the wrong door?" No response. I kept going until I reached what I realized was the front. I didn't know it at the time, but the woman lying on the table that ignored me previously was to perform my bikini wax. I had to wait another 15 minutes for her to be ready for me. I assume she must have been on a break...which is fine...I have no issues with that. But another esthetician came out while I was waiting and offered to the woman up front to take care of my wax and the woman at the front told her no, that I was waiting for Kayla. Technically I was but I was a new client so I just picked a name when I was booking it online and it would have been nice to be asked "hey do you want to go ahead or would you rather wait". I would have most certainly gone ahead with the woman that was ready for me. Meanwhile, while waiting for Kayla to finish her break, the woman up front had ordered food and proceeded to eat while I was waiting, never having me fill out any sort of paperwork even though I was a newbie to this facility, which she knew because I told her when I checked in. She took a few personal calls as well which was very awkward & well honestly unprofessional. Finally, Kayla was ready...she came to get me and took me back to the room to be waxed. While she was in the room she asked me to disrobe from the waist down, leaving my underwear on. Um WHAT?!? She told me this was standard procedure. Never have I had an esthetician IN the room when I am undressing, nor have I ever had one tell me to leave my undergarments on. Fortunately for me this was my first time at the facility so I ended up getting my wax for free but I would certainly not waste my time going back. I had to stay after mt appointment was over to fill out the paperwork that I should have been filling out while I was waiting. Do yourself a favor & go right across the shopping area to European Wax Center...I have been there since visiting Ultraskin and they are FAR better in all aspects.
