My sister and I had scheduled appointments. Upon arrival we were told to check in on the kiosk. The…read moreissue with that is that it only allowed one person check in yet we had two appointments (both under my number). My sister had a pedicure and manicure. I had a manicure. We both chose gel polished. The amount of time it took for my sisters manicure and pedicure was equivalent to my manicure. That didn't seem right. It felt rushed, and not very relaxing for her. The lady doing my nails fixed two spots my sisters technician ignored. She was adamant about making it "right." All in all our nails looked decent. So that's 4-5 stars. However it just felt like it was a bit lacking compared to other salons we have visited. Strongly recommend appointments. They turned two guests away due to the wait for other walk ins.

I am writing this review because people deserve to know about the experience I had at Chic Nails…read moreand Spa. While I was getting a pedicure, a mother came in with her young daughter to get a manicure and pedicure. The little girl was white. The owner began talking about how beautiful the little girl was. Then the conversation changed, and she said that when "other kids" come in, they are loud and disruptive. My friend responded that all children can be loud sometimes. The owner then said, "No, only Black kids," and went on to say they are "ghetto" and that she tells her employees to work on them quickly and get them out of the salon because they disturb her wealthy clients. I am Puerto Rican, and my husband is Black. My family is multicultural. Hearing the owner make those comments left me shocked and speechless. I froze and decided to leave because I couldn't believe what I had just heard. I had planned to return and confront the owner, but I had to travel the following day and wasn't able to. I will never return to Chic Nails and Spa. If you are Black, Hispanic, or anyone who believes every customer deserves to be treated with dignity and respect, I encourage you to consider spending your money elsewhere. In my experience, no business that expresses racist views deserves the support of the community.

Our first time here and we were pleasantly surprised walking in. The salon is lovely,…read morewe'll-decorated and we were promptly greeted. We checked in for our appointments and even though they were at 12 & 12:45 they got us both started ASAP. My technician, the niece of the owners was amazing, gentle and did a great job. The only reason I give 4 stars is that my daughter showed her technician a picture of coffin shaped nails and came out with them super squared and she has abrasions on several fingers. When i asked her about that she said the technician was very rough and hurt her. I asked her if she spoke up and she said she was scared to. That's some of her being 15 I'm sure (& I was at another table) but it's also important for the artist to recognize if a client may be younger or shy and make sure they're getting a quality experience and what they want / have asked for. These are her nails for her 16th birthday present. The owner was SUPER sweet & when she found out it was our birthdays gave us each a sweet little gift! We'll definitely come back again, just probably ask for a different technician for my daughter.

I waited probably 15-20 mns without being noted and got up and left. Everyone seemed happy that walked out but I did not feel like I mattered so I went to another salon that was more customer friendly. They do have evening hours if you want to go after work. That was the only reason I ended up there because my place stops cuts earlier. Try them out if you like but just know it's not actually walk in welcome.

The salon is clean, quiet (low music), and staff are friendly. I got a typical gel manicure and it's been a week and they're still going strong.
