    Manicure

    Made appointment so I wouldn't be squeezed in.Front staff checked me in but he was not very welcoming. Very rushed experience. Nail file for feet looked very used. When I got my manicure the equipment was taken out of fresh packaging so that was a relief. When I get my nails done I want to be able to relax not feel like I'm in a hurry so the next person can sit in my chair.

    Gouged nails from no-chip removal

    Stopped in for no appt no chip removal. They said they could take me. 3 people working and teenage son sitting on the phone at the front desk. Maybe owner couple and some other woman, who removed my no-chip polish. I don't get my nails done regularly. I don't know what to expect but, what I walked away with can't be right!! I ended up with the guy after I complained about the gouges from the woman tech. His English was very poor. I told him to cut them all off since they were destroyed. One customer came in and started with the older woman then switched to my tech when she was done with me. Now I have to grow the nails all the way out from the damage, they are splitting and breaking all the way down.

    The tech doing my nails did a great job! I made the switch to this nail salon because they could do more detailed designs. They immediately sat me and only took an hour. I had been going to the same nail salon for almost 3 years prior to my visit and I had a much better experience at The Nail Box than I have had at the other salon. The only downside is the price but other than that I had a great experience!!

    My reason for 3 stars is because i really really wish this salon would take a couple hours a week to do a deep clean. The stations are dirty, the nail storage is dusty and crusty and the floor some tlc My first time i had Bonnie and she was amazing and fixed my nails up so nice i was so relieved compared to what i had walked in with. Yesterday (my second time) i was sat with a different woman & requested the same color, she gave me a different one but i didn't complain cause it ended up being so similar. she did cut me with the drill and was super super quick like she was in a hurry which i didn't care for but i left satisfied because they look so frickin good! i will be back again tho. gotta keep trying to find a nail place that works for me.

    my go to nail salon!! I was surprised to see so many bad reviews. I have been going here since they opened and have always had a great experience. They do great pedicure and do a great job with my nails. My only complaint is that they have gotten pricey within the last year but so has every other salon. I really like the owner and other staff I have met. I would also recommend you make an appointment at least an hour in advance because it does get pretty busy in there.

    Amazing!!! I'll definitely be back! Mani and pedi was absolutely relaxing! Nails are EVERYTHING!!!! Thank you!!

    Relaxing and efficient! They came out so bomb!! I definitely will be back! My nail tech was amazing as well as my pedicure! The vibes are great and the work is even better!

    My daughters nails

    Paid $80 for my daughter to get her nails done. These pictures are right after. He never pushed back her cuticle or filed it to make the nails look right. For $80. So disappointing

    So rough he made me bleed
    Sade W.

    Relocated here from south Florida & I am convinced this state can't do nails; better yet anything other than acrylic which I haven't done in years. I don't know why I didn't learn the first time I came here, they claimed to know how to use builder gel and I left with stone looking nails and a messy gel pedicure. The owner/manger/ whoever she is had an attitude. This time I was desperate to get my nails done so I figured you can't mess up dip powder nails, I tried to go in there with a positive attitude but was quickly reminded why I will never do my nails in this state again. A man did it and was so rough, he used so much glue on the tips and still my nails were looping like flippers. There was no apex and he was rushing like he just wanted to be done. I said nothing! Since I knew better than to go back

    Mimosa with my pedi. Refill with my mani

    My refresh Sunday at the NailBox was extremely relaxing. I was offered a drink and jumped at the opportunity to have a mimosa with my pedi.

They are super quick, and from what I've heard, all their waxes are done similarly, so you can't go wrong with having anyone wax you here. I've personally only been to Aaliyah, but it was the fastest Brazilian I've ever had, and done in 12 minutes. Unlike my previous waxing establishment, you immediately strip down to whatever you need to expose right away in the room (Aaliyah turned around for this part to prepare for my wax), and then lay right on the table. I got my Brazilian done and then I got dressed and went out to pay. She cleaned off the table for her next client as I was getting dressed. She immediately took the next client. It was a quick & smooth process- I was amazed at how it was done so quickly & efficiently. They have so many specials (for example- I got the June Brazilian special for $45!!! That's $20 less than my previous spot). I will definitely return. It's a nicely decorated spot, but no extra frills- get what needs to get done and you're out within a good time frame.

The secret with great botox comes from the person holding that needle. Trust me, when you find your "Botox Master", you will be AMAZED at the results and you won't ever want anyone else doing your botox again. My search here in Virginia has led me to experience some bad results. Thus, I decided to find a place where the DOCTOR actually does the administering. This was harder than I thought! I finally found Dr. Guarda and made an appointment. The office was very beautiful and the entire staff were all wonderful, polite and very professional. Dr. Guarda spent a lot of time with me discussing my past botox experiences from what went wrong to what I loved. She is one of few, that believes in the conservative approach. She would rather inject less botox, wait for the results and then have you return if you need more rather than do too much, and have the client left with bad results for months. I loved this about her and agreed! I've have experienced droopy eyelid several times here in Virginia from estheticians doing too much botox, so I really prefer to do less botox up front and then tweak it later with more if needed. Dr. Guarda was never pushy and didn't try to sell me a bunch of products and or services irrelevant to the reason I was there. She just addressed my botox concerns and worked her magic. She did draw up the botox directly in front of me - which I highly recommend to anyone getting botox! You have a right to know you are getting the Botox you are paying for and not the cheaper form. There were no ice packs before/during/after treatment. However, her injections were gentle and I didn't experience any swelling, discomfort or bruising.

I ended up having 2 massages because the first one was so amazing. My first massage was a traditional Swedish massage. AMAZING! I've had about 100+ massages in my life and this was hands down the best. That is until my second massage from Yvette. My second appointment consisted of a quick leg wax and a hot stone massage. I had never had a hot stone massage before and I loved it. The best part was how attentive Yvette was telling me about her massage process and making sure I was happy throughout the process. Often massage therapists just do their thing. After my massage Yvette gave me some advice on stretching and techniques I could use at home to help with the tightness in my back. Super professional. Super friendly. Super Therapist!!! I LOVE THIS PLACE. You will too!
