    This place is always crowded, but they do such a good job that I wait! I think the prices are very reasonable for the manicure and the full sets. They are well organized and taking people as they come in because you write your name down on the list and they go from there. The only issue I had was one of the ladies who started doing my nails was looking at videos on her phone as she was doing my nails, and I thought that was not good service, however, the person who did my nails and my feet, turned out fabulous!

    What my niece asked for !

    The only reason you're getting one star is because I had to select something. My 17-year-old niece went in yesterday with a picture of the nails she wanted. The staff said they could do it--then gave her something completely different. When she politely said she didn't like them and explained they weren't what she asked for, the woman at the front desk was rude and dismissive. Instead of fixing the issue, she told my niece they'd charge her again to correct their own mistake. If you can't do the work, say so. Don't lie to customers and then try to charge them twice. That's not just bad service--it's shady. We won't be coming back.

    This was my first time at Happy Nails & Barbie was Amazing! I got the no-chip french tip pedicure. Mind you, I like my tips thick & she executed them perfectly. Definitely, check her out.

    This is how my toes look after removing my gel nail polish. Look how inflamed my toe is.

    GO AT YOUR OWN RISK.. I've only visited this nail salon once. And let me tell you that will be my final time. I noticed after removing my gel polish that my nail looked different. Turned out part of my nail was separated from the nail bed. I had to cut that portion off, which is why there's a chunk missing. As for the inflammation, turns out there's an infection. Pus literally came out of the inflamed area while taking these pictures.

    Chipped/ peeling gel polish

    I was serviced on 1/14/24 for my birthday: my no chip/gel pedicure is holding up great however ,my no chip/gel nails started chipping/peeling the evening of 1/14. I returned on 1/16 to have the chipped nail fixed and they did fix them for free but in a messy manner. The acrylic and polish was added back onto the chipped part but the nail was not filed so once dried, it was clearly slanted. While getting those other nails repaired, I pointed out another nail that was felt rough, and they did nothing about it- that same nail chipped the evening of 1/16. Other nails began peeling on 1/17. I believe the no chip/gel polish is cheap quality for the price that I paid, which is more than my regular nail shop a few blocks away.

    After reading the reviews I was skeptical BUT I tried anyway. It was a snowy Sunday morning and I had completed my shopping so, I decided to check out this mail shop. I'M glad I DID! I had a bit of a wait there were 3people in front of me and all of the technicians were busy. I had a new technician Macha she was really nice and we held a good conversation. I also had a good conversation with another mail tech (Twin) and his customer, it was an enjoyable experience. The nail salon was welcoming, clean and it had a pretty good clientele dispute the negative reviews. Overall, I was very pleased with my service it was snowing out so, the nail tech put oil in a small plastic bag to wrap my feet in before I put my boots onsuch a nice touch! I enjoyed my experience and I will be going back!! Thanks my nails are Happy!

    I can't get a regular pedicure because I am doing chemotherapy and I'm immunocompromised. I came in…read moreand the only thing they did that was kind as well as correct was just offer me a polish change. I wanted French but they said they couldn't do French unless the base was clear because they use nail polish remover to make the French design. That seems like inexperience to me. I've been to places where they do French over a pink base with regular polish but this is not the spot for that. So we pivoted because I didn't want gel polish. I said I'd go to the car and get the regular color I had on my fingernails. The woman started putting clear polish on my toes so I couldn't put on shoes and go get it. Since I was in a rush we just decided on a pink dnd color with funny bunny on top to make it more white. The joke was on me trying to be in and out. I showed up at 2 and didn't leave until 3:30. It should not have taken an hour and a half for a polish change. The original woman made the funny bunny coat on top too thick and lumpy. So I asked her if she could remove it and I could redo it. I repainted my big toe correctly and then another nail tech came and touched my toenail to see if it was dry and ended up smudging the polish. We had to take it off again. The nail tech that had messed up my nail repainted it but did the same mistake as the first tech. The polish is old and lumpy and unless you put it on thinly, it is going to be lumpy on the toe. So she removed it and said a other tech would try to paint it. When that nail tech finally did come over 20 minutes later, she was able to fix the issue because she found a bottle of funny bunny that wasn't dried out. But most importantly, she listened to what I had been saying from the start. My original nail tech never came back out. And I'm annoyed that I had done it correctly and then they messed it up. I would avoid this place unless you're getting gel. Even the last nail tech said it would have turned out better if I had gotten gel. They seem not to be able to do the basic regular polish well. Just do your own nails at home if you want regular polish. I know I will be. There was also a man on FaceTime on speakerphone in the shop and we were forced to hear his conversation for the entirety of his pedicure. They did not ask him to get off of speaker. It was really annoying and not a relaxing environment.

I have never gotten a pedicure before, but ended up tagging along with some friends who wanted to go. This was a very spacious salon and it felt like it was busy, but not too busy on a Friday afternoon. We all decided to get the Spring Romance Package and I'm not sure if we got everything listed (it said there was a tea, but I honestly couldn't tell if that was actually a drink or what the soak was called, lol). My friends and I agreed that I probably had the best experience out of everyone, so it really can vary depending on who is working. I believe my techs name was Johnny and he was great. One of my friends asked specifically to not get the scrub since she doesn't like them, but her tech ended up giving her the scrub and not another step of the treatment which she was bothered by. My friend who gets pedicures fairly often said that these were some of the best massage chairs he's ever experienced. One thing that isn't clear before going is that you can't add a tip if paying with card, so bring some cash to tip. They do have an ATM inside the salon, but I imagine there are services fees involved with that as well. Salon visits aren't really a thing I have worked into my budget, but I think if I wasn't able to take care of my feet and I could get the same tech, I would probably go here again. I loved the color that I picked and it makes me happy to see it on my toes!

She seemed almost annoyed that she had to work. The quality was also poor. She didn't remove my cuticles or apply any lotion afterwards. I also had to ask her to use the UV light to set my nails just by virtue of having that done in the past. It was as if I somehow knew better than her because she for some reason put a normal top coat and didn't set the nails. They chipped the SAME DAY. Maybe it was the person working that day, but due to the small setting and weird set up, I do not recommend this place. You're better off getting fake nail stick ons and going somewhere else.

Her licenses are displayed so you know she's had actual training and isn't working under someone's license. It begins with her thoroughly checking your feet to recommend visiting a doctor if you have abnormalities. I have to have a biopsy on a "mole" that nobody pointed out ever and I've gone to some of the more "upscale" nail shops. It's been there for years! My dermatologist wanted to know why I never showed it to her in all these years. Not one ever mentioned it, until Michelle. The space is small, within Sola Salon. It is well appointed. You will need to sit in a regular chair but the environment was quite relaxing. She first files the nails before cutting. She told me it reduces the chance of a nail splitting. She uses disposable everything, even a nail brush. She takes her time so expect your pedicure and manicure to last longer. I got the rose petal pedicure and it was wonderful. I got a manicure, and my nails feel strong and not one has broken. I never liked the manicures at the omni-present nail shops and my nails always cracked or broke afterwards. She does acrylic and no chip also. Paying was touchless with the option of Zelle or Cashapp. Traditional methods are also accepted.

I get in and she asks what I want then tells me I have to wait because she can't take me anymore someone else booked an appointment. UM HUH?!? Then the guy she gave me to rushed my nails. He kept cutting my fingers and the tools were getting too hot. what I originally wanted he wasn't able to do bc the fil in shade was not correct. So I asked if he just wanted to take my old set off and redo he said no it takes to much time. so yall dnt want the money. Heard. So I choose something easier for them to do, MY NAILS LOOKS LUMPY AF! The shape is terrible. I'm so mad I could cry. I refused to sit in there and let them even try to fix it because yall have played in my face enough. NEVER AGAIN if I could have put zero stars I would. NEGATIVE if possible.
