I love getting my nails done by Sara! She is gentle with how she removes old polish. She does a great job! =)

Sara did an amazing job!!! she was so kind and really took her time with my nails. I am very glad that I chose to check out her salon. Her and her husband are both amazing people. This was my first time going here and I will be returning every time from here on out.

loved everything? supper good vibes and the quality was very good and the prices are fair! the vibe was nice and everyone was nice. I got french tips!

Gel polish

Finally, a place in carmel that's fairly priced and friendly! Have been here twice and it's definitely me new go to. Local owners are exceptionally kind and talk to you throughout your appointment. Studio is a little dated but clean and inviting. They leave the door open if it's nice out which I love. I've been in for a polish as well as gel, and each time my expectations are exceeded. Nails last way longer than other places I've been to in the area, and it's a good price.

Dip Mani

I didn't ask her name, but from other reviews I'm going to presume it's Sarah, if not the woman I had today was so meticulous and sweet!!! I love their nail salon so much. They are very nice genuine people and one of the only salons I've ever felt so comfortable. She did a beautiful dip mani

Beautiful manicure! Love how they turned out.

My best friend and I went to the golden nail yesterday and had a wonderful experience. The woman who did our nails (I didn't catch her name) was lovely and helpful. She did a great job and we had a wonderful time. While it was just her that evening, that was due to the fact that her coworker had gotten in a car accident that day and couldn't come to work (she was okay though!),m. That's all to say that it took a bit longer since my friend and I both got our nails done. However, that was a wonderful opportunity for my friend and I to just relax, enjoy the atmosphere, and catch up. I definitely recommend the "Golden Nail," particularly as it is a woman-owned and operated business that serves ladies with excellence!

I had a great experience here. The lady doing my nails is SO nice, and funny. She really cared about the detail and spent a good amount of time on my nails to make them look perfect. I think this location is unbeatable, next to midtown plaza and is the reason I went but the lady who did my nails is the reason I'll stay! There is plenty of parking and the area is not busy. It's tucked away and cozy. There weren't others in the salon while I was there so o felt like I got great treatment, and loved how it was so personal.

Gel manicure

This was my very first time visiting a nail salon in the U.S., and I'm honestly so impressed!…read more I had my manicure done by Alex, and he did an amazing job. The manicure was very clean and precise, and the nail polish application was absolutely perfect. You can really tell he pays attention to every detail. The salon itself was very clean and comfortable, and I truly enjoyed my time there. It felt relaxing and professional at the same time. I'm very happy with the result and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!

I LOVED zen nails back in the day so decided to go back to them even though it's 20+ minutes away…read morefrom me once I decided to start recommitting to nails again. it's been a frustrating process thus far. I'd like to preface this with *all employees are super friendly!!!* but this is not a place I will be returning to ever again. I scheduled the following: - Saturday 2/6/26 - full tap gel x set on at 1:30 with Kate. - Friday 2/20 - replacement right thumb with Alex (free of charge!) - Wednesday 2/26 - further replacement for left pointer nail. I decided to say to heck with it and just get everything redone. $60+ later, I get home Wednesday evening and noticed my left thumb was already cracked. -Saturday 2/28 - went back at 6:15pm to repair( they close at 7 according to online and their door signs) doors were locked. - Saturday 3/7 - (they're closed sundays and I work during the week), I called to get my thumb nail repaired from my 2/26 visit. I wanted to call first to make sure someone would be available and avoid last weeks' situation. No answer. Called 3x periodically. Keep in mind, I am not doing any hard labor etc. the tap gel x is supposed to last several weeks so it's frustrating that I've had to go back 4x in a single month with the amount of $ spent. Thinking it was a fluke, I wanted to give them another shot but I'm taking my business elsewhere.

Just had my nails done Monday so we shall see how they do since it's only been 4 days since and this was my first visit. .

She shaped them nicely and uses a suction box to pull the dust from removing old color while sanding it off. She's gentle and gave me a nice hand massage at the end. My nails look so nice!

After doing some digging here on Yelp, I found Hanna! She has a room inside of an office building in Carmel and works independently. I called her to schedule my appointment. I arrived a few minutes early and she was ready for me with hot water in the basin. I only did a pedicure and was pleased with how gentle and thorough she was. She did a foot scrub and massage for a long time. It was lovely! I didn't have her put on any nail polish today because my toes look so nice without it. On top of the service being such a great experience, Hanna is so kind! She is talkative and friendly and an open book... I really enjoyed listening to her stories about her two sons and learned so much about her. I have a vacation coming up and I have a feeling I will be calling Hanna to get me in for a manicure before I jet off!

I wanted to update my review because the owner, Chloe, and the tech, Andy, went above and beyond to…read morerectify my situation. I came back in and Andy took the time to explain my specific nail bed type to me. I didn't even realize that was a thing! Since I haven't had my nails done in over 5 years, I wasn't aware of the benefits of Builder Gel versus Acrylic. Andy explained that for my 'flat' nail beds, Builder Gel provides a much better foundation. This set already feels so much stronger and more adhesive to my natural nails than the first. I truly appreciate the education and the quick resolution. It turns out the initial issue wasn't the salon's fault, but rather my own lack of knowledge on what to ask for! The salon is beautiful and the customer service is top-notch. I'm so happy to have a set that makes me feel confident--I'll definitely be back for my next fill!

Anthony remembers me every time and knows exactly what I like to drink when I get my nails done. He knows exactly what type of polishes I love and my color pallette, and gets me set up with choices as soon as I walk in. Then he's off to make my tea, and then sets up my guy, Tommy, with my choices of polish. Tommy does such a fantastic, detail oriented job on my nails. Like Anthony, he remembers everything about me and I really enjoy chatting with him while he works. The attention to my comfort and entire experience is stellar. Paired with the beautiful nails, every time, that garner so many compliments, I don't want to work with anyone but Tommy and Anthony.
