    Condition after they done my manicure
    Jacqueline O.

    I was going to this location for almost a year. Saddle they start to treat me like they are always busy doing my nails in a rush. Consequently last time i did gel manicure it did not last 7 days and my nails broken and is continuously breaking they damaged my nails and I am praying to find another place in Annapolis that they can help me to fix. Plus i got fungus on my toenails thanks to this place. Noy worthy really not.

    I've tried my best to give them the benefit of the doubt by going back again after I had a terrible gel manicure done. After I had a poor gel experience (blue nail pic) I decided to give it another try with a dip manicure and with a different nail tech. They leave polish on your skin, shape the nail poorly, and completely miss spots of the nail all together. Unfortunately the dip manicure was even worse. I had nice long nails and simply asked for the nail tech to trim them. Instead they cut, filed, and and drilled the nails down to stubs. Again, polish was just left on my skin with no attempts to fix the issue. She didn't even cut my cuticles or do any type of nail care. I think the photos speak for themselves. Talk about Sunday Scaries! Don't waste your $ here.

    Gel manicure

    Just moved here. Made an appointment, they took me on time and completely the gel manicure in 30 mins. This place is no frills. If you want to be in and out but also a very nice job come here. It is quicker than most with the massage but they had people back to back so it seems as though they won't spend extra time. My manicure has lasted 2 weeks so far so I will definitely go back!

    My first time here and I have to say I was quite impressed(mind you I'm quite particular with my nails)! My gel manicure came out perfect. A mini hand massage with sea salt scrub along with a hot towel wrap to end the service was a nice touch! :) Have to try their pedicure next time. The interior was very modern and most importantly, CLEAN! All the employees seems to be really friendly and professional, especially my nail technician(Sofia)! All the tools were sanitized and kept in a pouch. I will be back! :)

    I saw Tiffany and she did a great job. She made sure I really liked my nails and was super nice. Will definitely be coming back again!

    Oval shaped thumb versus almond shape like I requested.

    I typically love this nail salon and have an only good experiences until this most recent visit. My nail shape isn't what I requested some nails are almond some are oval, one hand is significantly longer than the other. The polish design I requested was solid colors but the technician said She couldn't do it or seemed uninterested in doing it because it was 5 different colors (one per nail). I asked for a different design that she has done before and it just looked sloppy. Luckily I have all of the tools at home to reshape and remove my polish so I can have exactly what I want, it's just frustrating to make requests and them not be executed the way you'd like. I'm not sure who I saw today but I'll only be scheduling with Ivy now, she is literally the best!

    Gel mani

    I've been looking for a decent nail technician for a while and got some recommendations for this place on Facebook. I was advised to see Sophia, and I'm so happy I did. She did a wonderful job with my gel manicure.

    not impressed

    Was not overly impressed with this place at all...it's clean inside so that's the only positive really. The nail tech did not file my nails how i asked her to multiple times and the gel was so incredibly thick as she continued to just blob it on my nails sloppily...i ended up going somewhere else - spending more money to get them fixed because i was getting them done for vacation. The gel also started chipping off all my nails (zoom into my thumb nail). Next time i'll stick with the nail salon i've been going to for over 5 years. Skip this one unless you've been coming for a while and your nail tech knows what you want and doesn't rush/fixes the problem...

    I saw this salon did SNS and had decent reviews and thought I would give it a shot! I have gotten SNS numerous times from a salon in downtown Annapolis. I have also watched videos and know how SNS should be applied. Lux is advertising on their website and brochure in the salon that they use SNS. If you are advertising SNS and charging $45 then customers should get SNS. Lux is using a knock off brand called Nugensis which you can buy online for $14. SNS can only be purchased by professionals with a license. I asked for SNS and got Nugensis. I had my nails done on Thursday evening and by Monday one had already popped off. I returned Monday and had that nail redone. Tuesday I had another one pop off and 4 other nails were lifting at the cuticle. I returned Wednesday to have 3 more done again. On my third return today, I asked why they were using Nugensis and not SNS. She lied and said it was SNS when she had the container in her hand. She also cut my cuticle on 3 fingers, you shouldn't leave a nail salon bleeding. She said I had thin skin. Nice excuse for not knowing what you are doing. I want a refund. I was scammed and paid $45 for SNS and did not get SNS. They wasted a lot of my time too! If I wanted nails that would pop off in 4 days I would have gone to Walmart. Buyer beware, I would go somewhere else. Also, if you return for a repair don't expect them to be nice to you. If you scam me, why are you giving ME attitude.

    I was a walk in on a Monday afternoon and they were able to accommodate me within a few minutes. I knew I wanted to treat myself to a special pedi so I elected to do the Hotstone massage pedicure and a gel manicure. The pedicure was nice and relaxing and they automatically give you a complimentary bottle of water. I did see a wine bar section but not sure when they offer that. My tech was a young guy who was very gentle which was nice since I've had experiences where techs can be really aggressive while they are cleaning and digging into your cuticles. He was just as gentle on my hands even though my cuticles were falling apart and sensitive already. A different tech finished off with my gel mani and she was pretty nice. I absolutely LOVE how the colors came out! She did not miss a spot! Pricing was definitely reasonable and I will be a repeat customer.

    My new nail place!!

    Who should I ask to do my acrylics?

    I usually get my nails done with Sophia, Ivy or Tiffany but when they haven't been able to my daughter and I have had other nail techs do our nails and they've done a great job.

    The first manicure I got here was a dip one and it lasted three weeks before I decided to change…read morecolor! It looked great and was obviously long lasting. It was time for a new manicure and out of convenience I went to a salon in the mall. That was my first mistake. I should have known my nails were going down hill from the way that tech removed the dip. She basically just ripped the old polish off taking the healthy top layers of my nails with it. The mall manicure lasted a mere few days before chipping because she layered it so thick, maybe to compensate for my now weak nails. I should have made my way right back to Allure, but alas I went to a different salon later, again out of convenience. They gave me a better manicure but it still chipped and she also was a bit rough removing the polish. I didn't get nearly the two week wear I should have before the polish began to pull away from my nail and chips began to form. After two not so great experiences I came back here. I believe the tech who did my nails was the owner, and commented on how weak they looked, so I told her they removed the polish terribly elsewhere last time. When she took the polish off she took her time to make sure it was done the right way instead of just rushing it to make time for more clients. No cutting corners. She shaped them well, applied the polish so pristine, and made sure that they were perfect before I walked out. They also include a paraffin wax treatment every time and it feels so good! That's just the beginning. Now to the part of this whole experience that compelled me to write a 5 Star review; I noticed a few days later that the charge posted twice to my card. I think it might have been because her daughter (I think?) who was helping out in the salon ran the card. I could tell she was figuring out the machine, and by accident it charged the amount before tip, then the amount that I put down after tip. Two charges posted, one for $39 and the corrected one with tip of $47. Mistakes happen though, so before going to the card company, I called the salon to see if they could fix it. I left my name and number (owner was with a customer) and the owner called me back as soon as she was done. It was within 30 minutes. I explained and she immediately worked to remedy the problem. She removed the $39 charge, was in communication with me about the process, and even texted me a photo of the refund receipt showing that it was taken care of. Not only do they provide a great service with much better value than other salons in town, but the customer service and atmosphere is far superior. I won't be going anywhere else to get my nails done as long as I am in Annapolis. Allure is the best and their good company ethic shows. Thank you!

I first came in on 2/15 to get an Annapolis pedicure with gel polish. At first I was very happy used a 10% off first visit from Annapolis moms mention and despite the receptionist making a mistake and charging me someone else balance then changing me a second time to make the difference, that was not a big deal to me. Came in 6 days later to get a basic manicure with gel before my vacation to Hawaii which was 5 days later. Less than a week later (a day after I got to Hawaii and not even touched the beach yet) my toe nail polish had flaked off and my nail polish was catching on my hair. I messaged the salon via DM instagram and they said I could come in no problem when I came back from vacation. Here's when it all went downhill: I meant to say I could come in March 15 (get back the 6th but weekends only work for me getting my one year old watched) however I put the 8th, this was not scheduled as I never received a text confirming the date which would've helped the confusion. The 15th comes and I go in thinking I'm getting my nails fixed, nope! They are too busy and I have to come another day so I say I guess I could come back 3/15 (exactly one month from my first visit). When I arrived I wanted to clarify before getting the service that they were fixing this and I would not be charged for it yet I'd still tip. I got attitude saying at this point my nails would need to be redone but this one time (said multiple times) they will do it. I have never been so disrespected in a business before in my entire life. My heart was pounding and my leg shaking the entire time, honestly I wanted to walk out of here after she started. The tech wasn't going to cut my long nails and when I asked her too she shook her head and said "well of course they are long it's been over 5 weeks". Despite the disrespect I still tipped her $8 for 30 minutes of work of doing my nails and toenails, crazy. My nails are still slightly bumpy along the tips and chipped on the thumb nail chipped only 12 days later. For the price I'd expect more, better massage, definitely better service/experience, and for the gel polish to last longer. Never had gel last so little of time. Very disappointing!

I also appreciate that they've stopped charging extra for certain nail polishes. The foot exfoliator they use is fantastic. I've noticed some inconsistencies with the Uptown Pedicure service. My first visit was great -- exactly as described, with a scrub up to the knee, paraffin wax, and a lovely extended massage. That's what convinced me to make the drive from Baltimore to Annapolis for a repeat visit. But on my next few visits, those steps were skipped entirely. I even reached out to the contact listed online, but never received a response. I decided to give it another try this past week, hoping my previous experience was a one-off mistake. Unfortunately, it wasn't. The same abbreviated service again. I also got a gel manicure this time. The nail tech was super sweet and friendly. The dry cuticle care left my cuticles shredded. The description of the gel manicure mentions a lotion massage, but what I received was just a few drops of cuticle oil after curing the polish -- definitely not the same thing.
