Spa Manicure

Are you looking for a place to get your nails done in the Durham area and are undecided? Look no further. THIS IS YOUR SIGN. I promise you will love your experience here. Kathy did my gel manicure and she gave me the best manicure of my life!!!!! She took her time shaping my nails and making sure the color was opaque and even in all of my nails. Elegant nails offers top tier service. I felt heard and well taken care of. I asked for my nails to be oval shaped and she made sure there was no edges left behind and that my nails were smooth on all sides. I LOVE how my nails look!!! She seriously made my week with how perfect my gel manicure turned out!!!! I highly recommend you check out this place. All the staff are splendid, but if Kathy is available you should ask for her. I will definitely be getting my nails done here again!!!

I requested a design and it turned out great! Got a lot of compliments on my nails. The pricing is pretty reasonable ($42 for gel custom design), nail techs are friendly, and I didn't have to wait at all, though I did make an appointment ahead of time.

This was the absolute worst manicure I ever got. They cut my nails so short I bled and yelled at me. Never go

I'm back with another review of this salon! I love this place…read more After a year of coming here I have had my nails done by many of the different nail techs and each time I have been impressed by how much they seem to care about the job they are doing. With that said, there are varying levels of skill at this salon. Just like you would find at any salon. You can pick a specific nail tech of your choosing if you prefer. Cynthia, the owner, is wonderful. It's not easy to run this sort of business but she does a great job and genuinely cares about the customers and her employees. You can tell by the regular laughter floating around the place. I will keep coming to this local salon for a long time to come.

I was so excited for my pedicure once I landed in Durham. I called two days in advance and made an…read moreappointment for 5pm on 7/3. I walked in and let them know about my appointment, I saw them check their book and confirm I was on there. She then told me to check in on the kiosk and pick my color. I followed the woman to a pedicure chair where she informed me that I shouldn't sit there and it was for someone else. About two minutes later, a woman walks in and thanks her for squeezing in an appointment. Wow. She tells me to go speak to the manager. He asks can I wait because there are three other people ahead of me, I said no I really couldn't and that's why I made an appointment. Very, very disappointing experience. Why let me check in for my appointment but then don't service me? Why was another woman with an appointment serviced before me? Why was there no real solution offered except wait for an undisclosed amount of time? I thought people were friendlier down south but clearly the businesses are not. 0/10.

I went to Bliss Nail Bar for a pedicure the week before Mother's Day, then returned within two days…read morefor a manicure. The lady I got my pedicure with was WONDERFUL (her name is Karen), and she took her time with my pedicure and the recommendations. When I came back for my manicure though, the young lady who did my nails did kind of rush me through my service and my gel manicure started to chip within two days. I called in and asked for a repair and Ms Karen serviced me upon returning and it's been almost a week and my manicure still looks fresh! I'm so happy with my results. I will be regula booking with Bliss.

Thrilled with the beautiful aesthetics of this place- the lighting, the brand new massage chairs…read more(everything inside looks brand new)- feels very bright and clean. Loved that they offer over 10 different pedicures, and my absolute favorite part is that you can add on a timed massage, to ANY one you pick (up to 20 min, for an extra $25). The salon offers LOTS of different colors, and different brands of gel polish. I got a gel manicure and pedicure, and I felt that my technician really took her time and did a great job. She did 3 coats without me asking, because the color was MUCH lighter than was in the bottle- I appreciate small things like that. $100 for both (and the extra massage)- I will definitely be back here!!! Note- only street parking. Wasn't hard for me at 11 am on a week day, but not sure of the parking at later times in the day or on the weekends. Have heard there is a nearby parking garage (but didn't see it). Lots of construction going on, on the same street as well.

I'm leaving a mixed review because while the haircuts were fantastic and I absolutely loved both…read morethe stylists, the administrative side of this salon was a complete headache. I specifically called to book the March Special, even clarifying this with the receptionist on the phone. Despite that, they booked me for regular haircuts and blow-dry instead. The issues only grew from there: * Pricing Discrepancy: The math on my initial $139 invoice didn't add up ($62 + $67 = $129). * Credit Card Error: The computer system showed one price when I paid, but my credit card was actually charged a different, higher amount. * Retrofitting the Math: When I pointed out the $139 total didn't match the $129 in services, I was sent a new invoice that suddenly included tax to justify the original $139. It felt like they were reverse-engineering the total by adding tax after the fact to make the numbers 'work.' I have never had tax added like that on any hair services. The salon offered to honor the special on a future visit, but since I'm from out of town, that doesn't help resolve the current overcharge. It's a shame because the talent in the chair is top-tier, but the lack of transparency and handling of the mishap were very disappointing. If you go for the great stylists, double-check your booking and your bank statement!"
