    Classic Peidicure

    Made a list minute mani/pedi appointment today. Linda was ready for me when I walked in and gave me a much needed manicure and pedicure. I will definitely return next time I need nail services.

    The owner did my nails today!! (I wish I knew his name). He was the fastest and best nail tech I have been to since moving to Raleigh back in March. I have found my new nail salon

    I have a wedding tomorrow and I came in yesterday. was greeted politely and QUICKLY taken care of. I personally got an unwelcoming "can't wait to be done with this person" vibe. you very well do get what you paid for, I paid $35 for a gel set (just matte black, super simple) the matte chipped off as I was on my way home, my cuticles were also very poorly cut. so I went back today and they touched it up. praying they'll stay In tact until after tomorrow. if you're absolutely desperate this place is okay, if you expect quality and security in your decision, you're better off doing your nails yourself.

    Great experience! I'm new to the area and have been trying to find a go-to nail salon. Oberlin Nails had truly the most friendly and professional staff I have ever met. The nail tech I had, Louis, was so welcoming and we chatted nearly the whole time which I've found to be pretty rare. Pricing was pretty standard but the experience was what made my visit so great. Totally recommend for area residents and NC State students, I will be back!

    I like to go to many different nail salons around Raleigh because I'm picky. But this place is down the road from my home. And I've always stuck going here. I wouldn't say it's the best I've ever had. But they still do an amazing job! I never get cuts, or never have sore nails the next day. They are careful, detailed, and caring. Also, they are very kid friendly!! Great staff to come up and talk to my daughter. They offer cold beverages and keep the place clean! So many options of colors to choose from. We had a lady in there who was extremely rude and out of character over an expired coupon. So if you read her review, just know, there was many of us present getting our nails done, and she was dramatic. It just made me love the place more with how they handled the situation. Great job to them! I'll continue to be a customer. -the broken nail girl

    This was my first time visiting and I will definitely be returning. Amanda did an amazing job on my gel manicure and equally Nancy did a fabulous job on my pedicure. I was especially pleased and impressed that they didn't rush me out the door despite it was a Sunday close to closing. They were very accommodating. The salon was very clean and friendly.

    For almost $70 you too can get a decent gel manicure and the worst pedicure of your life! I am a firm believer in second chances, so when I went back to Oberlin Nails & Spa due to smudged toenails, I attributed everything to the pedicurist letting me leave too early and my nails not drying sufficiently. No biggy! But then, after repainting my nails, they left me to dry my toes underneath a drying machine as they waited on other customers for over an hour. At first, I thought this was to make sure they were dried sufficiently, but I soon realized that they'd just sort of forgotten about me. When I headed out the door and put my sandals on, they smudged AGAIN. When I walked back in I said, "I am so sorry! It's got to be my shoes or something." The man who seems to run the salon then took me back to my chair to fix my toes for the THIRD time! I thought to myself "Welp. Third time's a charm, right?" Wrong. This man painted my messed-up toe nail in the splotchiest, gloppiest, jacked-up way possible. When he made an application mistake he just kept painting layers over it making my nail look strange and distorted. He also put nail polish remover into the bottle to cut corners and make the polish last longer, which resulted in a weird consistency and different shade of white on top of what was already there. I thought that maybe the paint would even out under the drying machine because I thought, "he couldn't possibly think that application was satisfactory." I was wrong yet again. This time, when I left and got into my car to head home, I did not put my shoes back on. When I rubbed my fingers across the top, the polish wiped right off like putty. This was such a frustrating experience. I do not make a lot of money and I generally cannot afford nice things like mani-pedis. Each year, I splurge for one on my birthday. This year, I would have been better off getting a pedicure at a seven-year-old's slumber party. I will never be coming back to Oberlin Nails & Spa. This place seems to care more about cutting corners and reducing the quality of their supplies than actually caring for their customers.

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!

The application process was a bit difficult compared to other press ons (like Kiss).

I called later in the day to let them know about this, as the raw skin began to start to feel like it may get infected. My call was answered by a nice lady, but she then handed the phone to the lady who did my pedicure. I wasn't even able to explain what had happened before she immediately started arguing with me about how there is no way she could have hurt me because the alcohol would have hurt it? She didn't put any alcohol on my heel. She put it on my toes before she did the nail polish. The fact that this woman did not even care to hear what I had to say and immediately started aggressively denying anything happening at all is incredibly frustrating and, if anything, just proves that she knows she messed up. At the end of our phone call, I let her know that I was trying to call so that the business had an opportunity to fix this accident, but that since she was not working with me in the slightest, I would be leaving had bad review online. She told me to go ahead and do it, so here ya go!!!!!

When you are escorted back to your space for your foot massage you will be in for a treat. There will be a wonderful seated La-Z-Boy and a warm blanket ready for you. The massage room is dim and relaxing and it feels like you've left all your cares at the front door and you are in a whole new reality. I especially enjoyed the caring treatment that the massage therapist had for me and my experience on that day. The environment is clean, cozy, but a little cool. I did enjoy mentioning to my good friend how I was feeling a little chilly and I believe it might've been the owner who walked a heated blanket over to me and asked while I was getting my pedicure if I needed a blanket that was the icing on the cake and why I feel if you need a pick me up you should definitely step into this amazing space. I will always make sure I check into relax foot spa when I am in Raleigh. I would have liked the nail technician to have asked if the water was OK and I felt that the cold water shifted my experience following the massage a bit however, the blanket and the additional heated water added it to my pedicure experience made it better.

We each had an attendant massage our arms and legs and feet, while we sat in very comfortable recliners. The attendants also used hot stones, which felt very nice. For the detox part we were hooked up to a machine and our feet placed in buckets of water for 30 minutes. We both kind of dozed off because we were so relaxed. I think next time I'd skip the detox and do more of the reflexology, and maybe add a pedicure! I wasn't sure what to expect but this was a really nice experience. I think it was great value for money too.

The entire staff's dedication to their art and extraordinary customer service is reflected in an exceptionally clean and relaxing environment.

Laura and all Stonehenge employees maintain not only a friendly, but a fun attitude that cultivates a more relaxing environment than I have experienced getting my nails done. The choice of nail colors, shapes, add ons, and many more make for a salon fit for all tastes and ages. Stonehenge does take walk ins, but I recommend booking an appointment in advance, otherwise you may have to come back another time. The staff is committed to doing things the right way without taking shortcuts, and does not rush to take more customers but focuses on the ones at hand. Business owners take notes, this is how you do it. (Tip 25%+!!!)
