Acrylic Nails - Shellac

Good service! I would recommend, the employees are very nice!!!!! & very polite I went it & got iced by the best !!

Mani and color change on the toes were just ok ‍
Carres D.

So, I came from out of town for a wedding. After working 6 days of 12h shifts in the days immediately before my trip, I didn't have time to get a manicure needed for the bridal party. I wanted a basic mani with french tips and a color change on my toes. I just needed quick and basic. Calling in, I got pricing from a nice gentleman but when I arrived, my nail tech had a hard time understanding what I was looking for. We sorted it out in the end but she did a mediocre job. It was just ok. Again, I wanted basic but I expected basic done well. Also, the tech spent a lot of the time trying to upsell me with gel polish. I kept declining and then she basically said that if I leave and mess up the color they can't fix it because I didn't get gel. I was annoyed by this and wanted to leave but in my need to get this one thing taken care of and off my plate, I stayed. Overall, it wasn't a bad experience. I would still recommend this place because in observing the work they did with other customers getting more complex services, they really do a good job. If I were to get a full manicure and pedicure or gel, I wouldn't hesitate to visit here. The decor is nice and the space is very clean and organized. They did a great job setting up a serene space in a small plaza. I, personally, just wasn't impressed in this instance.

I will never patronize this business again. I asked for the Deluxe Manicure ($27 on menu, includes paraffin, massage, etc.) and Deluxe Pedicure ($50 on the menu, includes massage, paraffin, and hot stones). First off, they started doing my nails while I'm in the pedicure chair. I can't relax and drink my mini bottle of wine. But no big deal. Instead I peruse the salon, noticing the disgusting Saran Wrap on the massage controls. Ewww... My nails were short because I had an issue with the gel last time, so the lady asks if I want to add tips to make them longer. I said yes (knowing it would be an upcharge). Pedicure is complete and I am so eager to get out of the awful chair that felt like I was sitting on a metal bar that I forget I didn't get hot stones. I move to finish the manicure. The woman originally doing my pedicure begins the next step on my nails but abruptly leaves after I point out one of my nails is filed lopsided. Another younger girl comes over and she is nice, so fine. The white gel nails are turning yellow in the UV light, so she does them over and was super nice about it. They still turn but it's not as bad. I was going to get waxing done but couldn't decide on exact services until I determined how my brow wax went, so I went ahead and paid for my manicure and pedicure when asked...$116 rather than $77. Fine, I expected that I would pay more for gel and the tips. Then I'm told my mani is over...no lotion, no massage, no paraffin...nothing. I reminded them that I asked for a Deluxe Manicure. Another woman interjected and said that I didn't pay for it. I explained that I had paid $50 for my manicure, which was more than the deluxe. She said no, I got a full set and gel and that's it. I said I requested both Deluxe Mani/Pedi and that I understood there were up charges, which was fine, but I wanted the deluxe services...and mentioned I didn't get the hot stones either. At this point, the manager starts yelling across the salon at me. That was it for me. I don't mind paying for excellent services but I want to get what I request and will not tolerate being treated like a POS. What an a-hole.

When you get a pedicure you get this baggie that you're suppose to bring with you each time.

My initial experience with Vinci was positive a couple of years ago but I typically visit a nail…read moreplace closer to home. However, my daughter really wanted acrylics for the start of school and we were able to get a dual same day appointment. My experience was ok, but rushed, and my pedicure was streaky (needed another coat for sure). When I went to check the length of the acrylics for my daughter, the tech left them waaaayyyy too long despite my request prior to the service. When I questioned it, she got an attitude like she was going to fight me on the street and started yelling that my daughter had requested it and that it would be a $20 charge to cut them down at the end of it all, she did a terrible job and overcharged me on top of it. Based on my experience with the quality and service this time, I will never go back.

No appointment, just a walk in. I was greeted promptly. I had no more than checked in and was…read moreguided to a set for my SNS nails. After which, guided to a pedicure chair. I think she did an amazing job. After, I requested an eyebrow wax. I had to wait for that. She did an ok job, but I was surprised she didn't do a follow-up with tweezers. I've had my brows waxed before and there was always the tweezer follow-up for stragglers. Had to fo that when I got home. All in all good experience. However, pricey. I think there are nail salons out there that do just as well, but are less expensive. This is by my house, and I'm to lazy to search.

I decided to give XOXO a try after finding my regular nail place closed. I came in with about 45…read moreminutes til closing but they were welcoming and started my service right away. I was looking for a natural looking gel nail with just shaping, no acrylic or otherwise. I am very picky as far as minimal cuticle cutting but Melissa was very thorough and gentle. She shaped everything up perfectly and pulled 3 choices of natural looking gel for me to choose from, which I liked because I can look through books forever and I'm super indecisive. We agreed on which looked best and I ended up with exactly what I envisioned. I chose the XO pedicure and drink choices were a mimosa or moscato. While they don't have massage chairs, the whole place is a vibe and they also have cute boutique clothing and accessories. I'm a very happy camper and glad I took a chance on this salon. I'll be back!
