Lindsey listened to me intently, When I told her about the past experiences I had at other salons, she asked me for a picture to get an idea of what I like. She trimmed very little off my ends and blended the short with the long layers to remove the step from my last haircut. She did exactly what I asked for and styled it with the beach wave look which I asked for. The only drawback was the cost. The haircut was $65. I left their happy but it cost me almost $100 with tip!

Alpha Nails has become my standard for nail salons - there, I said it! After re-reading everything…read morethat I said in 2017, I can firmly say that my old review still stands true (and I encourage you to read it). I wish I can take this place and transplant it to my hometown up north. And yes, I am THAT PERSON who will shift her schedule to come down here just to get my nails done - call me crazy, but I gotta do what I gotta do! So, first things first - Alpha Nails is not a fancy salon, but it does its job. It's a salon for the working woman (and well-groomed working man / person). I am sure there are bougier salons in the area if you want a place that's more *aesthetic.* This is a salon that takes a large volume of customers and offers a wide array of services. In fact, that's probably the best part about this place - you rarely wait for your appointment (unless it's peak time in summer and the place is slammed) and you are out quickly for most services - not to mention, the prices are extremely fair. They will take walk-ins but in the summer, this place gets super packed. I've been to a few techs here, but I always return to Anna. She's THE BEST nail artist I've ever been to. Whether the design is simple or complex, Anna continually delivers (seem some of my photos for proof). I do not know how she works her magic with that little paintbrush of hers - it's actually insane. In addition, I can push my nails to six weeks after she's done (which I don't recommend, but sometimes I am desperate) and they will NOT BUDGE. They have NEVER fallen off! She has also occasionally called me personally if there is a time issue - because she knows I am traveling from up north - which I think is such a thoughtful gesture. (PS - I usually do a gel mani with her!) In addition, now that I've gotten to know Alpha Nails, they are so incredibly warm and welcoming to their returning customers. They were hospitable when they didn't know me personally, but now that I've been coming here since 2017 (yikes! time flies), there is a different level of congeniality. They treat their returning customers well - and that's a sign of a good business! Several customers here are summerbirds (like me) and they always return to Alpha Nails. I've also gotten my eyebrows waxed here and pedicures. I will admit they've cut back on their standard pedicure over the last few years (who hasn't cut back), but their spa pedicures are totally worth it if you want to splurge. In a way, Alpha Nails has ruined my experience for other nail salons because I will forever compare all other salons to this one. This is a family-run local business that I am proud to support!

Looking for a new nail salon since moving to South Jersey…read more Called and made appointment for a regular manicure and pedicure. Told on the phone appointments not necessary, walk in welcome. I stated I prefer appointment. Arrived, plenty of parking. Salon was busy, lots of clients. Thought to myself, ok good sign so far. Greeted at the desk. Instructed to wash my hands and pick a color. No other guidance. I walked into salon, looking for a sink. Sink located halfway into the salon. I didn't see any nail color bottles. So I had to go to the front desk and ask where are the nail colors. Directed to the nail color books on a shelf by the entrance. Picked my color, was seated at a station. Shortly afterwards, asked to move to another station. Manicurist I specifically requested she focus on my cuticles. Manicure took maybe 10 minutes. Proceed to pedicure. Toe nails looked good, even though I still had some rough skin patches on the soles of my feet. I looked at my finger nails and disappointed. My nails and hands shouldn't look like immediately after a manicure. Went to drying station for a few minutes. Went to pay, I was asked for my tickets. I wasn't given tickets. Cashier has to go to manicurists to get tickets. Appointment was for 2pm and paid by 2:34pm on receipt. The actual time was about 2:45pm. Expensive manicure that looked horrible. I asked for regular manicure and pedicure- charged for upgraded nail service. Nothing upgraded about my manicure, I would say the exact opposite, definite downgrade. As a first time client, a little bit more guidance on where the sink and colors are. Manicure needs to be done properly. My finger nails already chips by the evening.
