    Never been one to leave a review but this was easily the worst nail experience I have had. I even called to make an appointment. They were obviously understaffed but kept letting people in. Took 30min on my nails and was rushing the whole time and was shoving lotion on me while I was walking out... I asked how much it was and she didn't answer me and just took my card and charged me $60. Think she added the tip on there as there was no tip option. Awful service especially for that price.

    Found this place on Yelp and looked at some pictures and made an appointment with Richard for a pedi and fill. He was great and I am very happy with my nails and feet. Will definitely go back. They have you to wash your hands when you get there and they have the plexiglass for pedicures and at the nail stations. Everyone had on a mask and it wasn't crowded. Also love the fact that they use the plastic coverings in the foot tu

    Awesome mani pedi with green tea detox is just what my poor, beat up feet need after months of no help fixing them

    Love quality of treatment and the massage chairs are awesome. They have usb port, free wifi and lots of space for your things to just relax and enjoy the awesome service. I needed a detox green tea pedi since my feet hurt so much with no way of having pedicures until now. I only get them when I need them. 1st time here. Made appointment online before arriving and was taken right away. I will be back.

    Got a basic manicure this morning. It's not good. I honestly could have done better painting my nails at home but I thought I would treat myself today. If a nail salon can't do a basic manicure well, what can they do? I would not go here again. I'm debating going back in there, but I feel they just need to re-do the whole thing and I'm not sure if I have time for that.

    Awesome service!! My nails look exactly like the picture I brought in. Great ambience and very clean! They adhered to all CDC Covid cleaning and spacing guidelines. Had to wash my hands as soon as I entered. They also had plexiglass shields around the pedicure and manicure station. Made an appointment during the day and I was the only one there. I will definitely be back!

    I've come here a few times to get my nails done, and it's always easy breezy during the work day - never too busy, can always walk in and out usually under an hour. I've gotten their dip twice now and both times they've looked great and stayed on three weeks. Everyone is also super nice. I highly recommend.

    Eunice is hands down the best nail tech I've ever had! She's super personable but still professional. She makes sure whenever I get my nails done that I'm fully satisfied, 10/10 highly recommend her for everything nails.

    My mom and I made appointments for gel manis/regular pedis and were made to wait for a half an hour with our feet in water before our pedicures started! This was the second time we had been made to wait with appointments and the first time, my mom didn't get her nails done because she ran out of time so a man (the manager?) gave us a gift card. We came back to use the gift card and they said it wasn't from them...! This time, my nail tech handled me very roughly, painted my last coat and top coat for my toes when I was sitting at the table (my foot on her lap, it was awkward and uncomfortable!), the color I picked for my toes had literally no paint left in the bottle and my manicure was poorly/quickly done (didn't get some of my last color off which was green underneath light blue!). Like some of the other reviews on here, my nail tech soaked off my previous gel polish by putting my fingers in acetone bowls which burned and made my skin dry. My mom also had one of her toes messed up in transit from the pedi to the mani and the tech just shrugged it off. I pointed it out again and she fixed it but wasn't going to! While we were there, 2 more pairs of people came in for pedicures and were also made to wait a half hour+ with their feet in cold water, it was so awkward. After not accepting our gift card, they gave us 5% off but it doesn't feel like enough. This was ridiculous!!

    I was told by a friend to try this place out and starting out everything went great but once it came to the polish I was drying my hands for 10 minutes and the polish was still wet, they kept adding layers and let me leave without fully drying my nails or applying cuticle oil after damaging mine, i was told to wait to let it dry but even after an hour the polish was falling off and chipping - very upsetting as this was my birthday present

    I loved my nails, Richard slayed my nails for vacation and I am so pleased. I'm definitely coming back for him

    David did a fabulous job on my nails! Walked in without an appointment and was seated in about 10 mins. David promptly started my nails and was very meticulous in giving me exactly what I asked for. I was in an out in an hour! So very pleased with Inspire Nail Bar and will definitely return!

I have…read morehad countless disappointing experiences all over the area and took a chance on Glossary after seeing another lady's post here on yelp where she displayed her acrylics. This post is very long overdue, and I can confirm after probably 6 trips to Glossary nails that I have finally found my perfect salon and nail tech! The staff is sweet, the salon is always clean, and I've had so many great interactions with other clients! It's also not too pricey compared to other salons, but I tend to pay a little extra than the average customer since I get gel + chrome / designs like french tips. I've been debating posting this for a while but figured I couldn't gatekeep any longer; if you want perfect acrylics, ask for Thi. She takes her time and is careful not to rush, checks for and corrects imperfections, and makes sure you actually like what she is doing by asking you throughout the whole process. A couple times I've brought in pictures from pinterest of styles I wanted, and Thi was able to perfectly match the color, style and shape of what I showed her. (I'll attach what I showed her for reference). Love this place so much!!

    Was looking for a new place to get a pedicure. I don't do it often and am a bit picky!…read more I live close by and decided to look into Kosmo Nail Bar. I read reviews and they're mostly great! I made an appointment online. Very easy. Picked which pedicure I wanted, any extras etc. they let me know that I would be emailed or texted to confirm which they did. Parking is ample and plenty! I parked right across from the salon. Upon entering it smells divine!!! Like lavender and lemongrass.. not sure what it was but it was so good ! Clean, elegant and quiet too. Not too big, not too small. My nail tech was Kristy. I showed her a picture of the toenail polish design that I wanted and she said "ok, I can do that for you". I chose the full moon pedicure that includes scrub, cream, paraffin wax and a 20 minute massage. It was wonderful and well needed !!! Kristy then began the nail polish and design. She took her time and even then she was quite fast. The design came out exactly as I'd asked. BEAUTIFUL!!! I was so happy and let her know. Kristy was kind and friendly throughout and so was the front desk assistant. There's an ATM inside for cash tip. I asked Kristy if she had other payment options (for tip only) and she shared her Venmo handle with me. Overall I was very very happy!! I found my new pedicure place and will definitely be back!!!

I was used to my previous tech who really took his time on my pedicures, but Kosmo is doing the job.
