    Beautiful job on my shellack!
    Kristin S.

    The first time I went here, I had a gal and got a manicure and I loved it. But the second time the guy forced me into a service I didn't want, (I wanted acrylic nails and he did fake nails with the dip rather acrylic), didn't get the type of glitter I had asked for (just a solid gray glitter), didn't do the shape I wanted even after showing him a picture & then at the end told me the service (that I didn't want to begin with) was way more costly than just the acrylic. SO, if you are going to go here you have to be extremely strong and blunt to stick to what you want, which is NOT how it should be when you just want your nails done!

    $60..... sometimes it's better to say you're not able to do a design then give someone these !!!

    props to them for attempting this design... but sometimes it's better to admit that you're not comfortable with it rather then charging $60 for this! .... too anxious to say anything so we paid and left. They were very friendly and got us in the same day, but this is just ... terrible

    I've been three times, but couldn't give it 5 stars based on my last experience. I've gotten a pedi & 2 dip manicures when I've been. The first dip mani I got was great. The second one the poor girl didn't have a clue what she was doing. Part of the appeal of a dip manicure is it's supposed to be better for your nails & no drills are used. However, instead of a normal mani where you use manual tools to take care of cuticles, she used the drill tool and consequently made me bleed. Besides that I could tell she didn't know the process for doing a dip manicure because she kept asking other people questions and messing things up and starting over. I am not necessarily faulting the girl who did them, but I don't believe the salon should put people in a position to fail. Nor should they charge full price if somebody messes it up and makes you bleed. As I said, 2/3 times as great. Just depends who you get.

    Shellac manicure by Mimi! Such a great job!

I called right away and the lady at the desk was great and made sure i got in for the time that I was attempting online. I arrived a few minutes before my appointment as I figured there would be paperwork. I was right. Just one page for information. My appointment was at 1:15 and was greeted to go back to the room about 5 min or so after that. The rooms are very clean and well kept. There is nice set up for the different procedure they do there. I ordered a couple different things. Hannah who was my cerologist was fantastic. They use a wax there that doesn't really stick to the skin. It was great cause I didnt turn red like I did before from other waxings. She was very nice and talked to me during the procedure. She made sure that I was happy with what she did. She wanted me to make sure that I told her if there was anything that I wasn't happy with. We had a few laughs as everything was getting done. I went home feeling good. It was great that everything went so smoothly so to speak. They did sell me a skin treatment to help with any skin issues after the procedure was completed. Everything looked great when I got home. I am pretty happy with the entire experience all around. The pricing was decent cause i got 50% off the most expensive procedure. Ill have to start saving up for the next time. I did get a text a day later asking for feedback. I rated them on the text but wanted to give my feedback here.

So when I saw Divine Nail Bar was open and very close to home, I decided to give it a try. I wasn't disappointed. It is spacious, clean and decorated in a modern style with an area for pedicures which is what I came for. There is also a section for manicures. They also offer many other services which are detailed on their website. I was greeted by Emily who helped me with color choices and who was also who took very nice care of my feet. I had the Posh Deluxe pedi which included a paraffin treatment and leg massage with hot (but not too hot) stones. All very relaxing and done in about an hour. The staff I encountered were all very nice and friendly. Before I left I made a return appointment!

    This was my first and last time at Divine Nail Bar. I had a new set put on with tips, dip powder,…read moreand design and left paying $85 without tip. Pretty sure I was overcharged. There is build up around my nails and in my nail beds that Jocelyn refused to fix. I expressed my concerns, but my concerns kept getting dismissed. My nails feel like they have stuff stuck under them and they are very uncomfortable and rough. The tips were glued to my skin and feel tight. Each time I said something, Jocelyn would make an excuse for it instead of fixing it. She also did not drill the dip around my cuticle to create a dip, which is a normal part of the process. I've been getting my nails done for years and thought I'd try this place out as I went with a friend. Do not recommend. Do not waste your money here! The manager could tell I was not satisfied and failed to ask how to make things right, there was only 2 other customers, and somehow, all other employees disappeared towards the end (the manager/owner).

She's exceptional at what she does and genuinely one of the kindest people you'll meet. My haircut is fairly simple, but I've seen firsthand the work she does with women's hair through several close friends who go to her, and she is incredibly talented -- precise, consistent, and thoughtful in her approach. You can tell she truly cares about her clients and takes real pride in her craft. She's also great at consulting with me on the right products, personalized specifically for my hair and skin. Their brand new location in the Atlas Building in West Des Moines is stunning. The space is beautifully designed -- elegant, refined, and thoughtfully done while still feeling welcoming and comfortable. It's conveniently located, easy to access, and truly elevates the entire experience. The team is always professional and welcoming, and the level of service is consistently top tier. I also appreciate that they've expanded their services beyond what was offered at the West Glen location -- it really feels like a full-service destination now. Another big plus is their use of Aveda products. They're excellent for sensitive skin, made with naturally derived ingredients, and the brand is known for environmentally responsible practices and more sustainable packaging. I personally purchase both Aveda hair and skincare products from Serenity, and they always have a great selection in stock. Serenity continues to set a high standard for quality, service, and overall experience. Highly recommend.
