    Most efficient nail salon. They are always busy but Devan has a system that keeps everything moving. Great job on manicures and pedicures!

    Cracked on day 7 & *2nd time returning bcz of cracks again

    So my friend and I get our nails done every month since Thanksgiving time 2022. We go to this salon. I got special Christmas nails, valentines nails and St. Patrick's Day nails now. Usually it goes pretty well. But this time I had to go back after 1 day (a nail cracked for no reason whatsoever). I had my nails done on Friday the third and it chipped on Saturday, 4 March 2023. I had to wait until Monday to return and get it fixed. So then, after a week others chipped again. So I changed from French manicure with a Shamrock on one finger to all green glitter nails. So then on March 3rd, I got the green glitter put on all of my fingernails (in the dip)... the next day my nail cracked. I should say the nail polish cracked. It was a Saturday I knew it would be busy so we went back on Monday. A lady fixed the one finger for me So only seven days went by and two more fingers cracked and then another. Today is the 10th day and it's March 14, 2023. I had to get four nails redone because they are cracked and chipped. Something is not right. Another lady did it this time and it seemed that the last person missed a step? They made me pay $10 more dollars after I paid $55 only 10 days ago. I also had to pay five dollars for soak to get the other ones removed a week ago. I think we'll be looking for a new place so they are losing two people every month now because of this, but I thought people should know. I paid the $10 plus I gave the girl a tip today because I felt that I wanted my nails to be right because I had them green for a reason for St. Patrick's Day. I just don't think they should've charged me another $10 after I've been back twice already in the last 10 days.

    I have been coming to Nail creations for a few years since moving here to Waco. Today is the day I chose to take my business elsewhere, sadly. I usually get my nails done by Tara but she had been on maternity leave and today I walked in for a full set and a mani for my daughter. I was happy to see Tara back although she was with a customer so I approached the counter and asked if I could make an appointment with Tara. My daughter was seated but I went to the front desk and asked for an appointment with Tara and the manager guy was like who!? I'm like.. Tara? (It's his wife btw) He's like who? I repeated myself. I thought I was saying it wrong so I pointed at her. He then realized who I was talking about and was like OH NO we don't make appointments. (I've done appointments before, I think weekends are the only days you can't). I said ok??? So then what? Do I wait for her to be done? He's like... well it's gonna be an hour and a half. I said ok, I can come back. He proceeded to ignored me, walked to the register. Obviously they don't care about their customers, since I was basically denied service. I had to sit uncomfortably for the duration of my daughter's service.

    I always book with Lily or Ken, and they're so detailed. I've had different services such as manicures, pedicures, dip, gel, and regular acrylic overlays. I am always happy with my service when I leave and will recommend them to friends and family. Also, I'm super picky, so the fact that they pay attention to detail is impressive. Try them out!

    i had a fantastic experience at this salon! my nail tech, Michael, was wonderful. my nails were a bit of a mess, but he took extra care with my cuticles and really paid attention to detail. he took his time, and i could tell he was committed to doing an excellent job. the salon itself is very clean, with a great selection of neutral polish options, which i loved. the music was soft, and the whole atmosphere was quiet and peaceful, making it a truly relaxing experience. i highly recommend this place and will def be coming back!

    Classic gel mani

    Love coming here for my gel manis! . Cindy is my favorite! She is detail oriented and always makes sure i like my nails (and fixes any issues with a smile).

    UPDATE: after 5 days 6 of my nails are either cracked or chipped. I don't do too much manual labor, so I'm kind of dissatisfied by the lack of durability. That said, I still plan on returning, just probably not getting dip again. A phenomenal experience! This was my first time at Nail Creation and I will definitely be returning. I haven't had my nails done professionally in a while, the sanitation issues in some places gave me the heebie jeebies so I kept my distance. I desperately wanted a pedicure so I spent some time looking for places online. I found The Nail Creations on Tiktok of all places! When I arrived I was promptly greeted and offered something to drink. I decided on a gel pedi and a dip manicure. They have a lot of options for dip and regular gel polish. I opted for one of the glow in the dark options. The manicure and pedicure were both done thoroughly and professionally. There wasn't any excess drilling and the nail techs were very friendly. The best part! Everything is so clean! The pedicure bowl was lined, the pedicure jets can be removed and cleaned, and the tools were opened right in front of me! I find comfort in knowing that I'm not being unnecessarily exposed to infection from tools used immediately on someone else. I would probably return even if the service were just ok for the sanitation alone. They do use the cheese grater / foot rasp, which I don't care for, but that's too easy to decline. Overall, it was a great experience and I can't wait to return!

    I came in with long nails and the request to keep them long and the almond shape - Kevin did not listen to me, he clipped my nails down and then asked if I wanted to put tips on them for length... no. The color looks like what morticians use, but truly the least of the issues with this service. If you're going to charge $5 for a "special shape", you should be sure that you know the difference between oval and almond as well as short vs long. I have brought my mother, grandma and grandpa here for pedicures and the ladies do a great job, I thought I'd give the nail side a chance. And that's the last time. Stop nickel and diming people for services they aren't happy with.

    Ariel, is the best. I bring her the design/style I want and she will try her best to fulfill my request. This place is very clean.

    Cindy always listens to my nail art requests and is excited to do the work. She always makes me feel welcome. Catering to my needs. She also has a great personality to make the experience fun!

    OMG! This place ..... is the BOMB hands down! You step into big city vibe with the friendliness of the south. Amy did my nails the first time finding this amazing place and not only did she get them perfectly matched to the picture, they have lasted - well.... Longer than they should . I am back again and will leave another review/ but ...... ask for a bubbly (complimentary) as they get all at up so you can relax & feel pampered, even for just an hour or two

I just got a fill with gel and some of…read moremy cuticles are flooded, it felt like they were rushing me and only took 30 minutes (I was the only customer in there), my nails are uneven lengths, and some of my tips are rounded and while others are pointy. They don't look awful, I just always have high expectations because they are typically are very detail oriented and take their time.

    Gave this place another chance and I absolutely regretted it within the first 10 minutes. The lady…read moresmiled at me, sat me down, and as soon as she started to get to work, her entire demeanor changed as she asked me what I wanted. Now when you really look at the set, it's not difficult, but for some reason, she had an issue with what I was wanting... during this entire appointment, I kept thinking to myself that maybe she's just having a bad day but really it was extremely clear she did not want to work today. After trying to be nice about this entire experience after she finished my nails, she threw my hands at me and said done and walked off. This isn't the first time I've had something happen like this at this establishment and now it is set in stone, that I will never be coming back. I 10000% do not recommend this place. I should've never given him a second chance and now I'm back in another nail salon paying more to get my nails fixed.
