Shiny Nails

My sister and I tried this place out last night since our old nail salon closed down. My sister and both got mani and pedis we read the reviews on Unilocal and this place looked very promising. My sister had a female and I had a young male. We started our pedicures first and my guy took about 30 min more than my sister. He was taking his time which I appreciated but he was taking so long the lady who did my sisters feet ended up assisting him. I’m not sure if it was his first day or not but he seemed to not really know what he was doing. The tools he used on my toes to push back and remove my cuticles hurt so bad that I began to bleed a little. Also, the water was BOILING. Each time my foot left the water it was bright red from how hot it was. Once I got to the manicure station… my sister already half way done with hers. He sits down and starts clipping my already very short nails and begins to start shaping them without even asking how I’d like them. He took of length which I’m not happy about and my nails look like little squares. On top of that he forgot to soak my hands in the water before working on my hands. And lastly, he was about to begin painting my nails before I paid. I had to bring it up to him. I appreciated his thoroughness but I don’t think I will be going back there.

Always a pleasure coming here. I’ve been getting no chip manicures here for two years on and off and always had a great experience. They take very good care of their clients and actually understand requests. Highly recommended! :)

Micah was extraordinary. Thorough and careful. My wife said it was the best manicure she ever had. Very reasonably priced.

Really wouldn’t go back here. I came in for a no chip manicure which was only $ 30 which was good but the color selection was extremely limited. For $ 5 more I wish I went to L. Lovely Nails down the street with more of a salon feel. The shop seemed very awkward and the lady who did my nails didn’t do that great of a job.

I have always had a wonderful experience & feel extremely welcomed by all the technicians. They are so sweet and the owner Jenny takes good care of their customers. Very relaxing environment & great prices. I highly recommend them. Thank you!

love this nail salon! no blaring tv or music. nice and calming. the staff takes their time and friendly. makes feel like I’m actually treating myself without going (or spending) at a full service day spa.

Really nice place!
A bit hard to find, since it’s set back in the mall next to Empire Beauty School.
Very clean, very nice music. I was met at the front by the owner who made me feel like I was an old and valued customer, even on my first time!
My technician (Julie?) was very conscientious, very thorough. I had originally come for only a pedicure, but the massage, hot towels and pedicure were all so good that I opted for a manicure, as well.
Loved every minute!
I recommend this place highly! Plus, the pedicure plus manicure was only $ 35! The best deal in the burbs!

Love this place! They are so friendly it is a very relaxing experience every time! Calm music very clean and just calm. they sterilize every piece… every time. the warm towels and stones and neck message are a treat!

I have gone to Shiny Nails since they opened, and love how friendly they are and how well they treat you consistently. They are always welcoming and remember you even if you are not a regular customer. The quality is consistently good and the neck and shoulder massage after a manicure is a nice touch! Keep up the good work girls. It’s like Cheers, where everybody know your name. Located next to Empire beauty school and in the same mall with Wendy’s.

Of all the nail salons on Rand Rd. this is tops!!! They really go out of their way to make sure you are comfortable and you get taken care of. Jenny-​Jessica-​Mary-​Julie thank you for making each trip a pleasant one… and I see you staying past closing when a walk-​in comes in close to closing time.
If you are a regular customer, you meet some other regulars that you look forward to seeing.ladies.you rock!

I walked in, no appt. The shop is located in a strip mall and not easily visible. I was pleasantly surprised. The shop is bright and clean. The employees are happy and gracious. My handbag and keys were placed in a little basket which moved with me from station to station. My mani was full out, with oils, hot wrap, and other steps in the process that ensured a great finish. The polish stayed on longer than usual, and there are many color choices. During the week the charges are reduced for a mani-​pedi. I didn’t feel rushed and had a nice first experience. I’ve had subsequent appointments and it’s always busy with clients.

This fairly new nail salon has a spotty record of keeping appointments. I’ve had a standing appt. for several months,
and just recently came for my appt. and was told that the nail technician (Jesssica) had a doctors appt. and would
not be in until 11:00 AM. A phone call would have been nice before I came for the appointment and found that
she would not be in. I could have rescheduled for a later date.
When the salon first opened, if you made an appt. with a nail tech, you would probably not get that technician.
No explanation and again no call so you could reschedule.
A review of their appt. procedures would go a long way for good customer service.
