    uneven lines. this is not even the worst one
    Kendall A.

    nail tech made me bleed 3 times and didn't even say sorry once. i got tips and they feel on the verge of snapping any moment. one of the nail techs was fine and my friends nails looked great. mine had uneven lines and some thick and some thin. lady made us tip more than we would like to. i do NOT recommend going here. so upset and mad.

    To a naked eye, they're so pretty!

    The people are great! They're very nice and give you what you ask for but, if I'm going to pay $86 for a pedicure and a fill in, I expect my nails to be flawless. I have less imperfections when I pay $50 (for a pedicure and a fill in) at my local salon. Would I come back? Probably for a pedicure. I'd look elsewhere for a fill in.

    I visited today at around 9am and got to see the salon before the hustle and bustle of the day. I drove in from Elizabeth City and it was definitely worth the drive! I wish I had taken photos of the salon, but it's neatly divided into sections and was very clean on both sides of the salon. I made an appointment a few weeks ago, but they welcomed in another woman who was a walk-in client around thirty minutes into my appointment. The woman who did my nails was very kind and welcoming, and the owner of the salon prepped by nails while the woman who did my nails took care of another client. She was very quick with her work and ask questions frequently to make sure my nails were the way I wanted and gave me several options for the butterflies and the pink acrylic on my nails. Their prices for everything were also very clearly written upon entry and super helpful, even though I already knew what I'd wanted. Overall I loved it and highly recommend going, especially in the morning while we're still in the midst of the pandemic if you want to avoid a lot of people!

    Such a pleasant surprise here in OBX! I love having unique, colorful nails and rarely am I able to find a place that's able to copy a photo I have on my phone, especially when traveling. Leave it to Nails by LT to do it all! They receive an A++ on my gel acrylic fill with marble design (photo attached) and did a great job on my mom's gel pedicure and dip manicure. Look no further for your nails at the beach!! This place beats them all!

    What I requested with the exception of jewels in the shape of a Mickey head on the middle finger.

    I would NOT recommend at all unless you're getting acrylics. I went in for a gel manicure for natural nails and a pedicure with regular polish. I requested black polish on my toes and a plain Mickey head on my big toe nails. I showed a picture of the look I was going for and the older lady was not able to understand because she kept giving me 3 separate dots not touching instead of 2small dots connected to a larger dot. I had her redo it 3 times and she still could not deliver it but by this time I was frustrated and just wanted to move on to the manicure. The same lady starts the manicure and disregarded the picture and my requests yet again. The nail design was simple(see pic) On the matte nail I requested a jewels to be placed in the shape of a Mickey head. The lady was about to do the same thing on my nails she did on my toes. After me trying to explain all I wanted was the simple design on the pic along with 3 jewels someone finally decided to step in. The other lady had to stop her work with another client which absolutely sucks because my lady couldn't do the simple design. Then the new lady was trying to rush me and give me Christmas color jewels when I requested blue or purple. She acted like it was inconveniencing her but I was not being heard or listened to at all. So she glued on the jewels in a rushed manner to get back to her client... then I paid $88 ..... only to walk out of there in tears because what I asked for was no where what I received and it was an hour of hell in that place and not relaxing at all! 3 hours later my jewels started to fall off!!! So I had to remove the entire polish on my nail that had the jewel and repaint it myself! I thought about going back and having them fix it but I don't have much availability in my schedule and I'm not confident that they could/would! I didn't even get a picture of my nails before I had to redo them! Edit AFTER owners reply: It's not mean... it was my perception ... and yes... The stones did fall off! The first small one fell off 3 hours after and I did nothing to make it fall off as I was only folding towels. The rest fell off by the next day and then I had to remove the whole polish and repaint. I literally have people who witnessed how bad it was. To say they won't fall off on their own is bs.

    Had such a good experience here! I had left a different nail salon due to poor customer service earlier (Natural Nails) and came to Nails By LT and am SO HAPPY that I did. I was only getting my old acrylics removed, and even though this service is not very expensive the technician really took her time and put a lot of care into it. My natural nails have never looked better after removing acrylics before!! I'll keep coming back here every time I'm on the island.

    No filter needed best of the best

    Can I just start off with saying that Tommy did such a great job I love my nails they feel like they're my own natural nails he took his time and the result is amazing best nail salon you can ever go to and if you're planning on getting your nails done go with Tommy he's ne of the best!!!

    Had a most excellent mani/pedi. The ladies couldn't have been nicer and more thorough. One of the best pedicures I've ever had.

Lol My Fiancé made an appointment for me & my new Mother In Law to come here and get my nails & toes done before our wedding on Sunday August 20th! My Manicurist was named "Holly". And let me tell you, (despite being embarrassed at the fact I haven't had a manicure/pedicure in a long time and I looked like Cinderella at that time physically a bit! Lol ‍) she did a DAMN GREAT job! She was Friendly and Super talented! Not ONLY did she get ride of my irritating stubborn in-grown nail out (that I had tried doing myself many times and failed & was seriously hurting me for almost a month ) but she made my Toes look beautiful again BUT once I left that place, my toe actually healed! And I was so damn ELATED!!! She really was a SUPER STAR in my eyes that day! I am so GRATEFUL to Holly for her patience in dealing with my Cinderella feet! Lol I would MOST definitely recommend this place! They know what their doing and they do a HELL of a job doing it! "Thank u so Much Holly for saving my nails and especially my toe! Lol "
