    Exactly what she asked for.
    Tonya P.

    They did a wonderful job on my daughters nails. Very polite & gentle. I've been coming here for years so glad my daughter enjoys to come along.

    Tons of pedicure chairs

    My mom and I went to get a mani/pedi recently while in the area. The techs were nice and our nails look nice, but it was a bit pricier then some of the other local salons I have been too. Nothing too crazy but it added up.

    I haven't any services since April 2020 due to Covid. Today I came for the second time since February for my regular mani/pedi. They require masks for everyone and the employees sometimes wear two of them They have put up plastic dividers everywhere, which were thought to be helpful in the beginning. Now that we know the virus is aerosolized, the barriers are merely 'decorative'. They do show that this business has taken the virus seriously since the beginning. I've had my nails done by two techs other than Yallee or Bailey. I couldn't really get their names due to multiple masks. They both did the same meticulous job as the others. Sadly, I have taken them down a star. One of the main reasons I became a customer when I moved to NC was because they did NOT have televisions in the salon. That is no longer true. I will concede that the volume is very low and the peaceful music prevails, except for occasional bursts of startling sounds from a random show. Additionally, it is their policy to refrain from putting on news stations, which is refreshing. I've added a couple of pics of the new set-up. I still plan on remaining absolutely loyal to Wakefield Nails.

    My daughter and I were looking for a great nail salon in Raleigh for a while now. There is nothing like word of mouth. My coworker recommended wakefield nails. Since my coworkers nails looked great, I was excited to try them out Let me just say this place has extremely Great customer service. Everyone was pleasant and welcoming. Very attentive. Tina, the manager did my pedicure and Andy did my daughter's pedicure and Gel set. Terry did my full set ombre nails. They did a Fantastic job. We left extremely satisfied and we definitely found our new place. We also had our eyebrows waxed. Very good service and a pleasant experience overall. Thank you for your service.

    Traveling to the area and was highly recommended. The deluxe pedi was great. Trust me. Finding a place that gives great pedis is rare since covid. Tina did a great job on my hands. This will be my Raleigh nail salon for sure.

    I had an appointment today at 12 and I was greeted upon walking in and they started service quickly. My usual tech is going to be out of town for sometime and I went to the salon she works at and they destroyed my nails. I saw all the wonderful reviews and pics on Facebook for Wakefield Nails and decided to give them a try. I was able to text for an appointment and that alone was great. Lily was my tech today and did not disappoint. I'm very satisfied and will be coming back to see Lily. Great salon and very professional staff.

    I went to Wakefield Nails for a 2pm Scheduled Appointment for a full-se with designs on my nails. After 3.5 hrs later my nails were still not complete, shape incorrectly and design on only 2 nails because I had to leave because I had to pick up child. Also the air conditioner was broke and it was 83 degrees in the salon and they charged me $80 for a poor job full-set. I know they are trying to recover from the pandemic but these prices are way too high and especially for 3.5 hours of nail tech working on 1 customer in the heat. NEVER AGAIN

    Natural or gel... they did a great job on both

    New management! I happened upon this place because my son was at the trampoline park on the other end of the plaza and I had time to kill. They were friendly and did an amazing job. I'll be back.

    I've been going to Wakefield nails and been serviced by Yahlee now for over a year. Service is still as great as it was over a year ago even throughout Covid. Everyone is friendly and professional and since going there I haven't had a broken or chipped nail, ever! Yesterday, I got a gel fill-in by Yahlee and my daughter got her nails painted with gel polishes by Terri. Both Yahlee and Terri did a great job on our nails. Teri is great with children :) They have also installed big screen TV's in the salon which is a great touch. I will continue to recommend everyone to get serviced at Wakefield Nails!

    Worst pedicure ever!!!
    Amy V.

    This is the worst pedicure I ever received The woman who did my pedicure could have cared less about what she was doing. The water was luke warm and I asked her to add more hot water and she ignored me. There was no leg scrubbing and the towel she kept putting my feet up on was wet and cold. The polish on every one of my toes is not on the sides and it's driving me crazy. The worst part of the whole experience is that they are not sanitary at all. They do not line the tubs with plastic and I watched as 3 people came and went. All they did was empty the tubs and spray it a little with the water hose and it was filled back up for the next guest. I will NEVER return!!!.

    My nails when I got there
    Marilyn M.

    The service was great but I recommend doing appointment to save time that's if you live far . But the nails I wanted came out good. I would start coming here more

    Overpriced. All I got was a refill that was full price and one color painted on top of the other. Barely lasted a week.

It smells like SCIENCE. It smells like ingredients that will change your skin. Absorption: The products melt in my face. My face drinks all of the products right up. It doesn't feel like I have 4+ products just sitting on the surface of my face. Besides the revival masque that's makes me look glowy af. Results: After 1.5 weeks I have noticed a change in the brightness & tightness of my skin overall. Even noticing a difference in my eye area which I wasn't using any products before. My acne scars are fading and the texture of my skin is MAGICAL. My skin texture is unbelievable right now. I'm shook. I can't wait to start rolling and bumping the AVST up another level. I have spent hundreds of dollars on skincare products from Sephora to Derm Store for many years and I've never experienced products like Environ and it hasn't even been 2 weeks!! Environ. Is. Magic.

    I had an appointment with the owner of this salon Ashley several years ago and was really put off…read moreby her condescending, nasty attitude. It was as if she was doing me a huge favor by allowing me to sit in her chair! One comment she made that springs to mind was, "while you have a lot of hair, it's *very* thin". You know, that's great you have opinions, but there's a little thing called tact and it's considered unprofessional to treat clients rudely. For the record, there is nothing "thin" about my hair which is why I was so taken aback by her catty comment. Stylists usually ask for more time because my hair is so thick and wavy. For the record, it wasn't just the one comment, it was the overall experience of making me feel uncomfortable, so much so I couldn't wait to leave. Obviously I didn't go back. Who wants to pay to be insulted? Even if she was having a bad day, I still can't imagine the owner of ANY business having such a nasty disposition toward their clients. *update* Not long ago a local hair stylist friend of mine mentioned that Impressions Salon had moved to a new location. My friend also mentioned that she knew the owner so I told her how my experience with the owner went. My friend replied, "I've known Ashley for a long time and yes she has been known to be rude to her clients. That's just how she is."

    I came to this business as I was walking around the shopping center and noticed that 20% off nail…read moreservices sign. I decided to give it a try as 1) I hadn't had my nails done in a while and 2) I had a trip coming up. I'm pretty peculiar with my nails -- they are long and I want to keep them that way -- and I was giving myself a break from using gel polish. My nail services were subpar. The experience itself was fine -- not great, but just fine. Someone asked me what I wanted to drink, and I asked "What are my options?" They replied "Water or soda". Then I asked if they had coffee, and the woman said yes. So...I'm not sure why she just told me they only had water or soda. I needed two tips put on my shorter nails because they recently broke. One of my tips broke within 5 hours. The other is so noticeable. The technician did unfortunately a really bad job at filing the tip to make it blend in with my nail. What's more, it is not fully glued onto my nail. It will likely break within the week, probably sooner. I would go back for a redo, but as I said, I wanted to give my nails a break from gel polish. I do not want them taking off my gel polish (probably by scraping it) only to weaken my nail further. That, and I live far from this salon. I'm unfortunately disappointed in the service here. I called yesterday asking to speak to a manager and was told somebody would get back to me. Nobody has gotten back to me.

    scheduled an appointment for a pedicure and a full set with a soak of my acrylic nails…read more I came in at 330 and left at 7! My pedicure was ok she painted outside my nail beds and had to make her correct them but had an attitude. I then go for my nails and she's not letting them soak. She can't do acrylic so I have to get dip which I'm not used to the lady who could do them the owner kept refusing to help. She does my dip the shape isn't what I want to wide doesn't want to fix them. Then it's time to paint she keeps asking what color I want I said French she's like oh that hard I don't know if I can do it. Then does one nail, while she's doing the one nail the owner lady is rushing get by turning off the lights in the salon so it's darker and she can't see very week so the other lady decided to help which was ok she tried. Then it's time to pay, it $140 all together because She said my nails are long. But wait the lady Who finished my nails she says I'l you'll get $15 to t since you donated them. I asked did you just add a tip? And when I asked for an itemized she brakes it down and the lady who did my set told her you're wrong. I pay that for longer nails almond shaping a speciality pedicure and better service in North hills. This place sucks and because she doesn't pay her workers well she hounds people to tip them. Another lady walked out says goodbye abcs she stops her at the door saying oh wait your husband said you can take care of . She didn't even do her nails! She told her I sent her a Venmo. Like mind your business. A tip is a courtesy based off of Service. If I have to sit and listen to you damn near yell when your talk to every customer (which they clearly tolerates you, while you think they're your friend, asking personal questions about their life and they just want you to shut up and service them) sit thru attitudes, sit through you rushing the lady but don't wanna help her and then turning off the lights on me while they're doing my nails and then acting like I'm a difficulty customer when I scheduled an appointment, I WILL NOT BE TIPPING AND I WILL NOT BE RETURNING and I suggest you all find elsewhere to go. I'm tired of wake forest/ Belford salons the service out here is horrible! I must say it's starting to show that the Asian community is not very fond of the black patrons out here. ***APPOINTMENT ON 9/11/26 PHOTOS FRON 9/15***
