    Pinky hang mail remaining.
    Stacy D.

    Surprisingly disappointing experience. I wanted to get a gel dip manicure. My niece and I made two appointments for 10 am. We arrived a bit early and asked what we wanted. Then we were told to pick a color. After a confusing amount of time trying to figure out which set of colored nail examples were for gel we settled on a color. A few minutes later we were greeted by a nice guy who was going to both of our nails - at the same time. I'd never had that happen before but figured - maybe it will work. We were told we picked the wrong example cards from the front and he gave us the proper gel dip card to choose from. After selecting a color, is when the real disappointment came. He used an electric rotating file to sand down my nails and somewhat remove the cuticle over the nail bed. He did not remove any cuticle beyond that (I actually had a hangnail remaining after he was done). There was no manicure at all really. No lotions, no prep. Just a rotary filing and some dip powder cured with a uv topcoat. Same for my niece. My thumb nail aches. The worst part was how costly it was. For 20 minutes total of service between both of us and no manicure care the dip was a $40 service. 20 minutes and $80 later I knew I wouldn't go back. Even in New York at my posh local salon a gel dip with manicure and massage is only $35. I don't mean for this to sound elitist. I'm grateful for the quick polish change (especially when there was sun and beach time to be enjoyed!) but the service I received was essentially an average polish change and not a manicure.

    She said they look even better than she was expecting

    My daughter is thrilled with her new nails- can't stop talking about how good they look. Highly recommend this place. Also, the person who put the nails on we very friendly and stayed late to accommodate us. Above and beyond!

    I got home and cleaned it up.  It continued to bleed. Notice the bad polish on my too short toenail.  Geez

    If I could give this place a negative star rating, I would without hesitation. I am new to the area (previously from Southern California) and made an appointment based off someone in town telling me they were good. No flippin way! I normally do acrylics with an American Manicure and get a pedi. I'm good for every 3 weeks for sure so I like having a good, professional job. I'm not afraid to pay or tip. Since the move I was long overdue and needed a new set and pedi. Made an appointment and they sat me right down in the pedi chair. FOR 30 STINKING MINUTES!!! before someone came to help me. I told the person I don't want my toenails too short to just trim the big toe and that I liked them square. He proceeded to butcher my big toe so short and well, too late after it's cut! I tell him, "it's too short" so then he asks on the other foot where I want them. I tell him, they need to match so it'll have to be too short too. The best part was he snipped right into my skin on my 2nd toe causing blood non-stop so he shoves a bunch of dry "knick" stuff into it to stop the bleeding and proceeds to finish the job. Complete with paint all over my toes that I have to ask him to clean up. At this point I know I'm not taking a chance on a full set here so I just ask him to remove the little big of acrylic I have left on my nails. He does so, burns 2 of my fingers and all I want to do is get out of there. The kicker to this is this place charges MORE for services than my fave place in Southern California. What nerve. No I'm sorrys, nothing. Never again. Since I can't seem to find a nail place with consistent good reviews, I guess I'm back to doing my own toes and such. By the way, because he cut my toe, it looks like part of my nail is missing. It's not. He just couldn't paint it because of the injury. I'm sorry to attach pics because no one wants to see feet but you need to see this. I really can't believe no one even gave a sh**!

    The lady who did my nails was nice enough. But I'm not crazy about the ridiculously thick bubble nails she gave me

    If I could give 0 stars I would, I went there Tuesday June 11th and got the cheapest pedicure I could which was 40$ then I got a full set of acrylic nails with pink and white ombré. For whatever reason I was charged 140$ which is totally outrageous and I believe 100% they took advantage of me because I was on vacation and wasn't from there. They literally charged me for the coffin shape, the length I got and the ombré color. The vibe of the business isn't comfortable either because they constantly speak in another language to each other while staring right at you so you know they're talking about you, plus they also kept referring to me as a "first timer" in English and kinda argued with each other over who was going to do my nails. Hana that works there is very rude and has a bad attitude. It took her almost 4 hours to just paint my toes and do a set of nails. Which the nails are bumpy and crooked and I had to buy a fingernail file to file them down myself after leaving. Do not waste your time going here; they're awful and charge way too much I could've got the same thing for 80$ at my local salon and with way better quality.

    Ocean Isle is an annual ritual for my family's vacation. We love the area and it's close enough to CHARLOTTE, NC to not feel like we are driving forever to get to our vacation. Ocean Isle Nails is a great addition to the area. I highly recommend the 3 step Deluxe Pedicure. The hot stone massage was great and the service was excellent. I followed up my pedicure with SNS nails. Loved the color selection and now my fingers and toes are beach ready!

    quick and very nice place did a excellent job on my nails i would recommend this place best place i have been

    One of the best experiences ever at a nail salon. I live in Sunset Beach and normally drive into North Myrtle to get my nails done but I wanted to try a place near home and I'm so glad I did. I think it's family owned and they are so nice. They even stayed later after closing time for my manicure. I can't say enough good things about this place!

    Super pleased with the new shop in the Publix plaza. We have visited all of the local nail salons when in OIB and this is my new favorite. Clean and well kept. Good massage chairs. Prompt and pleasant service! $25 pedicure is a good value. Will definitely be back!

    Got right in as a walk in for a pedicure and was probably the best pedicure I've ever received.
