I got a liquid gel fill from this location. 3 days later it started chipping off and at my cuticles it started lifting and getting caught on my hair. I called to ask if someone could please fix them and I could come in any day they are available. They told me to come in on a Monday (exactly 1 week later). When I go in they told me they cannot fix them and could only get a top coat. They said it was too late to get them fixed since it was at the 1 week mark even though I told them the person on the phone told me to come in that day. They said I could come back in again next week and pay to get them re-done again if I wanted. They offered no other solution even when I said I was unhappy with how they looked. I am at the 2 week mark (normally my nails last for 4 weeks) and they are completely chipped and lifting off of my real nails. I called in again to ask if they could at least give me a discounted rate to get them re-done since I paid $80 for them. They said no and that I would have to pay full price. I have never had this poor of an experience at any nail salon.

Today is Wednesday March 19th , I had a very disappointing experience at Garden Nail Bar .The staff rushed through my appointment, barely taking the time to properly prep my nails. It felt like they were more focused on getting me in and out rather than providing quality service. Within a day or two, my nails started chipping, which is unacceptable considering the price I paid. The polish wasn't applied evenly, and the edges were rough. I expected a relaxing and professional experience, but instead, I left feeling like an inconvenience. I wouldn't recommend this salon if you're looking for long-lasting, well-done nails. There are definitely better options out there! DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!

My friend and I met here for a pedicure. It was my first time going at her suggestion and it's convenient to me. We went on a Wednesday around 3:45p and was able to walk in with no appointment and check in with ease . I chose my color (well kinda, I showed a picture of the shade of pink I wanted and was assisted in getting a nice shade from their array of choices). Both Jon and Lynn provided excellent service and gave a quality deluxe pedicure which included a paraffin treatment. The environment was calm and clean. We also enjoyed the red wine offered. Would I go here again... yes!

This is my 3rd time here and this was my best visit. I got gel manicure, regular pedicure, and eyebrow wax all done my Lynn. I think this is why I had a great visit because I only had one tech the whole time, which I prefer if they can do it all really good. I wanted a light pink sheet gel color and Lynn really took the time to help me find the right one I was looking for. She also gave reviews on which gel color would work best and which wouldn't. I like that she took her time instead of rushing me to make a decision. I will definitely be back and make an appointment with Lynn. My wait time on a saturday afternoon was 40 min, without an appointment. Clean nail salon. I like that it's spacious. Mask required.

So I did a review quite a while ago so I'm going to do another one. Today I went to get my nails done. And they came out perfect!!! Julia is the best there are a few others that are good to and I would choose them if Julia was on vacation or something. But I got my Halloween nails done... so if you don't like the the tech that did them ask for another next time... but don't give up until you find a tech that does what you like...

1 week of growth shows the imperfections that I saw on Day 1

I went on looking for a GEL fill not gel polish. They had a container labeled "gel powder" but I suspect it's acrylic, which I absolutely hate! I kept asking questions and now I feel lied to. IS APPLIED THE SAME AS ACRYLIC, no light cited gel like I'm used to. It's a "puppy mill" in there. Get them in, get them out... No real quality work being done unless you want acrylic nails. Mine were too thick and uneven on the sides. The photos are after 1 week to show the grow out process. NEVER AGAIN. Cuticles are dry and we're never dealt with during the appointment although I keep asking for it to be.

Pro: Marisella was great! Super nice, she said great things about the nail salon as we talked about how long she had been there. She comforted me in the cleanliness, the Garden nail bar is very clean ! They have some items that are one time use, which I LOVE! I don't have to worry about someone else's skin or nail particles on the equipment while it's used on me. She uses a magnifying glass with light on your hands to ensure she gets all the hangnails and cuticle off your nail! She's super meticulous and I cannot boast her skills enough! DEFINITELY coming back for her! I have also done my mani-Pedi's with Tony, he's super sweet and very good at his craft as well. Con: They don't have OPI Gel polish They have another brand that had some decent colors, but it's difficult to match colors from alternate brands. That's my biggest complaint, and it's not a huge deal. I did knock off 1 star because fact of the matter is OPI is a big brand to not have on your shelves. Back to the positives! Employees are attentive and great! They all seem to be happy to be there and enjoy what they do.

This is the worst experience I've ever had at a nail salon. My friend and I went to get pedicures and manicures. The pedicure was decent. See photos attached... (what we asked for and what we walked out with) My friend and I asked to get ombré SNS nails with accent nail. There was so much miscommunication. We were told an acrylic nails or overlay was necessary. We informed the nail technicians we are nurses and cannot have acrylic nails. I said acrylic overlay over my natural nail was fine, however, the manager then came over stating the SNS was "healthier for nails". We told them it doesn't matter whether it was gel, SNS, or acrylic overlay over natural nails we just wanted what we showed on the photo. The nail technicians weren't very helpful in choosing the basic pink "natural" looking color. Neither one of our nail techs knew how do do the ombré. The manager came over to do it herself and was just dusting white powder over the nail. The photos speak for itself for the kind of job that was done- poor. I was unhappy with my nails, there was attitude already when we asked for the accent nail to be redone. We walked out with our nails looking horrendous and paid $77 dollars (mani and pedi). I got comments from people I encountered of how horrible my nails looked and they were shocked they even let me walk out like that. I called the next day to see if I could get a refund or have them redone. I was told there was no refunds but they'd be willing to redo my nails at HALF the cost. Because I didn't want to walk around with nails like a 7 year old did them, I went in and paid an additional $20. The manager the next day didn't greet me or even make eye contact when I walked in. The service was terrible, rude staff, and they showed they care more about getting your money than having a satisfied customer. Don't forget your clients are walking advertisement of your services. Don't waste your money here. Keep looking.

My fiancée treated me to a gel manicure appointment for my birthday and she booked it the night…read morebefore for the only available spot at Nail Yeah! In the past, I've been loyal to one local chain boutique nail salon, but after a bad experience the last time, I was ready to branch out and try someplace new. Enter Nail Yeah! I had the best experience. I can truly say this is where I'll be coming now. I was impressed with not only the quality of the manicure and the cleanliness of the studio, but also the conversation with my nail tech Paulina and owner Crystal and the small, intimate feeling of the salon. I wasn't elbow to elbow with other clients or squeezing around work stations! Further, I felt super safe in regards to COVID precautions being taken by the salon with everybody wearing masks, receiving a temperature check at the door, being asked to wash my hands upon entrance, and Paulina wearing gloves and changing out paper towels and towels on her work station throughout my manicure. Finally, I'm really impressed with the social media presence of Nail Yeah!. I love that Crystal uses her business and her platform to amplify important causes. I love that I feel not only safe, but welcome as a gay client. I love that their values align with mine and I know I'm supporting good people and good values when I come to Nail Yeah!

I finally got a chance to check out Nail Yeah! while they were vending at Arts on the block in…read moreRaleigh. The person vending was nice, pleasant and welcoming. I liked the short pinkish color I settled on. There want many options but I am very satisfied with this color. I purchased short press ons that included the entire kit. I followed the directions. I installed right before bed (so that my nails could set without any use after install). At least three didn't even hold up for a full 24 hours. The application process was a bit difficult compared to other press ons (like Kiss).
