I really dislike writing negative reviews…read more I had a gel pedicure and while the technician was very nice and gave a great leg massage, my nails are a mess. The cuticles are not done correctly, my nails aren't filed smoothly, and the polish is messy and is all on my skin, and it's already peeling! Additionally, the first time I was at this salon, it was a great vibe, and everyone seemed happy. This time, it was tense in there to the point of being uncomfortable. Before leaving this review, I emailed the owners as soon as I noticed how bad it was and included pictures. They replied quickly and said they'll do it over. They called the next day to ask about availability, and said they'd check the schedule and get back to me. Two days later, and I have not heard back from them. I've followed up twice. At this point, I am no longer interested in a redo. I just wish it'd been done correctly the first time. I rarely spend money on pedicures, so I am very disappointed.

I've genuinely never been disappointed with the service at Wilmington Nail Salon. In my opinion,…read morethis is one of the best bang-for-your-buck nail salons in the area. It's a cute, quaint little salon tucked away in The Cotton Exchange, and they offer a parking pass for the lot behind The Cotton Exchange, so parking doesn't have to be an added expense. The staff is always professional, talented, and clearly skilled at what they do. I especially appreciate that the nail artists seem to truly specialize in their craft. My shaping is always on point, and the leg massages actually have good pressure and technique without ever leaving me bruised or irritated afterward. The salon itself is always clean and welcoming. I'd honestly love to keep this place on the DL so the prices don't start creeping up, but they deserve the hype. I've tried other salons closer to me and usually leave disappointed because the service just doesn't compare. Wilmington Nail Salon is a little farther of a drive for me, but it's absolutely worth it.

I made an appointment with the amazing Katie Green and was so impressed with not only her amazing color skills but how friendly she and all the girls in the salon were. I knew going in my pain in the ass head of extremely thick and dark hair was going to be a project and I was full of advance apologies but she clipped on that's mock and got to work. I couldn't have been more pleased with how amazing her highlights in my hair turned out. She made the 4 hours I was there fly by and everyone was so upbeat clipping and snipping away. This was the great salon experience I was looking for. I am so happy I have to look no further than 2 blocks down my own doorstep for such professional and capable service. They also offer many other spa and facial services and are one of the premier bridal suites downtown. Super great location for a bridal party too with cute little cafes and pubs nearby if you're making a day of it beforehand. Thank you, Dalisay and Katie! See you in 6 weeks!
