Fancier Salon and Spa is truly HEAVEN SENT!!! I have probably been to every nail salon in the Bowie/Lanham/Greenbelt area over the last few years. I can definitely say I have been to most because sadly not one has kept me coming back for more than a couple of visits. In desperate need of a fill in, as a couple of my friends kindly pointed out to me more than once in the last few days LOL, I decided to get my nails done while running some errands. While I was contemplating which mediocre salon could halfway decently do my nails, I remember a customer telling me about this great salon she had been going to as I had complemented her on her gorgeous nails! I remember she said the shopping center with the Outback Steakhouse, and I was on my way!
First off, don't make the same mistake I did, there is another nail shop on the other end of the shopping center (I won't mention the name), but DO NOT GO THERE! ABORT MISSION! I quickly walked out as I knew this could not be the correct place, however a quick Google search (and all 5 star reviews) directed me back to Fancier Salon a few doors up, (CLOSE CALL!)
Then, the little beams of light from heaven bestowed upon me as I walked up to the doors, I was immediately greeted by their staff, even one that was outside on a break. I then met TYLER!!!!!!! Let me tell you he is THE BEST nail tech I have come across and I will never let anyone else touch my nails again! He is not only super friendly and serious about providing excellent customer service,quality work, and genuine concern for his clients needs. He asked me about my previous concerns with my nails that brought me to a new salon, and he DELIVERED! He completely reshaped my nails and did them to perfection! I have never been so pleased about my nails, they are natural looking and shaped perfectly for my hands. They also provide a variety of great polishes such as OPI and Essie, and a million gel polishes. In addition, they are very knowlegeble about the latest trends and are very honest on which polishes are best . They won't sell you on something trendy if they think it will waste your money.
During our conversation, I asked about their eyebrow services because I noticed online they offered eyebrow theading which I think more salons should have as an option other than waxing. Tyler told me that he does specialize in eyebrows as well, and how he has clients come from all over to see him. Before I could even call him out on his bluff, literally 4 to 5 people came in requesting him for eyebrows while I got my fill in. Mind you I have not let a soul touch my eyebrows in over 2 years! I am terrified of someone leaving me with thin ass "I always look surprised" eyebrows! I told Tyler that and he didn't pressure me into getting them done or switching to waxing which he does, however after watching him working his magic and talking to a few of his clients I was convinced. Everyone finished with beautifully, natural, arched brows, and raved about his work! I got my eyebrows waxed for the first time EVER, and done period in over 2 years and they look so good!!! Perfectly shaped to the point where even with very fine eyebrows, I don't have to do much to fill them in with eyebrow powder anymore.
Yall ready for this, a fill in and eyebrow waxing $24!!!! I love to save my coins but I am picky about where I go, so this was a WIN-WIN for me! This is definitely my new go-to spot! Come here and you will feel the same. They have a great staff, wonderful products and services, and won't break your pockets.
Your nails, eyebrows, and everything will be ON FLEEK!! LOL ( sorry, I had to do it) read more
