Nail Secrets

Sad to say, but this was probably the worst no chip manicure I’ve ever gotten. The ladies were so nice and the place was so pretty, I’m disappointed it didn’t work out. My no chip started peeling off after one day. They fixed my nails free of charge, but it peeled off again after another day. It’s only been 3 days and I’ll be removing the no chip myself. Waste of $ 30.

Walked in with no apt and was seen right away. Although it started to get busy, the tech never rushed, she did a careful, precise no chip mani. Even the take off of my old chip was done carefully, without damaging my nails. When’s the last time someone paid attention to the mani they were doing rather than filing your nails till you bleed while they look everywhere but at your hands? That was a refreshing change. The ONLY negative was they didn’t have a great selection of no chip. I’ll definitely be back.

Had the greatest pedicure here! The salt scrub was amazing. Leg and foot massage was great! Then when my toes were drying I had a shoulder massage! I will be back for more at this clean and well organized nail salon.

This place looks very nice, and the people are warm and welcoming. But I have been there 3 times now and my no chip calls off after a day or two. Every time! I would not recommend going here. I will not be back.

I popped into this nail salon when I was waiting for my boyfriend to finish up at the gym. I have a regular nail place I go to, but decided to save some time. I wish I had just waited to go to my own place. The technician rushed through my nails so quickly — I think the whole process was 15 minutes max. It took her about a minute and a half to «clean up» my cuticles and skin around my nails. The color I chose was a darker color, and it’s so messy and uneven, and she painted over the cuticles that she should have removed. I woke up the next morning after minimal activity, and my thumb nail was already chipped. The final straw was that it was $ 3 more than I usually pay, which frustrated me when seeing the quality. I have to go to my regular person today to get them cleaned up — so now I’m paying for two manicures in one week which is really, really annoying.
The only reason for a 2 rating instead of a 1 was that the salon was very stylish, chic, and clean, and the employees were very nice, even if their services were subpar.
I noticed other people who have rated have had consistently good experiences, so maybe there are just some technicians that are better than others here.

AWFUL!!! I got a pedicure which was mediocre. I payed with a credit card, signed the slip and handed it to the lady at the cash register. I was going to give the technician cash for tip and the lady at the register said, «aren’t you going to leave a tip??» WHO says that? Then I had her cash to give to the nail tech and she then says, «that’s it??» REALLY??? There are plenty of good nail salons in the city and won’t be coming back here.

I received a really great mani/​pedi, today. Very neat polish job. It was a bit rushed although at the time I sat in the chair, I was the only one in the shop. I would give a 5 except for the fact that when I was signing my receipt, one of the technicians grabbed the clipboard I was using to sign my credit card receipt to give it to another customer. She pulled it away as I was signing, removed my receipts from the clipboard and said this one is for you and you leave this one (paraphrasing). Well, No Shit! I gave a look of ‘seriously, you couldn’t have waited for me to finish and you’re being condescending? She said something in her language and laughed along with another woman. I’m not sure what she said and it could have been derogatory. Whatever she said, she should have used english or perhaps not said anything. My words to you are, this is rude behavior. Please don’t treat another customer this way. This is a great location and you will get lots of patrons because You and the other technicians seem to be very talented at what you do. However, if you treat people the way you treated me, it’s likely this place will always be as empty as it was during my visit.
I will definitely return and so that you won’t have to pull a clipboard from one customer to give to another and make a condescending remark, I’m treating you to mini clipboards. I’m hopeful that you will choose next time not to be condescending as you were with the comment about the receipts. If you choose to or not, speak English so as to be fair.

Very clean and hip, always comfortable and the techs do a fabulous job!

I would not recommend this place. Went in for a no chip and it chipped off most of the tips of my nails within a day. I went in to get it fixed and ask they redo it all and they gave me attitude about it. They redid it all but that started chipping the next day.

This place is clean and well kept. I wish they were a little more friendly at reception.

This place is horrible. They don’t listen when you tell them how you want your nails, they do whatever they want. My nails were all uneven, the pedicure was horrible, and the girl who did my nails was so rude! I think she may have even been a manager.

I’ve been getting no-​chips and pedicures here regularly since January 2015, and they’re the best! Love their punch card for a free mani after you have 10. The massage chairs are amazing and all of their nail techs give no-​chips that last 2 – 3 weeks. Can’t beat free parking, either! My only wish is that they accepted Amex. Thanks for keeping me polished, Nail Secrets!

I love this place. I make sure this is always my first stop. They are super clean. Respectful and make sure you get your money’s worth! Huge selection of colors.
Got my first no chip done here. Pedicures are amazing!!!

My nail tech didn’t speak English. This was a major issue as I kept trying to tell her how to file my nails and she kept doing the exact OPPOSITE of what I wanted. I originally came for a no chip, but after just a few minutes of filing my nails, I got a polish change instead. If you can’t file, you probably can’t cut cuticles and if you can’t cut cuticles, I won’t chance it. I almost walked out in the middle of my service because I was so uncomfortable and dissatisfied with experience. I will never go back!!! Go to Nail Junkie instead, read my review.

Never have I encountered a place as clean as this!!! Ladies, this is the place to go!!! I requested that the girl not scrape my nail because this leaves ridges in my nail as it grows out and she did exactly as she was asked without an attitude! Your card gets stamped every time you go and your 10^th manicure is free! Awesome place!

I went in on Friday to get a no chip manicure because my normal place was too busy. the place looked clean but I like places that use new tools every time and you actually see them opening a new package. this lady just pulled tools out of her drawer I have no idea when they had been cleaned. By Sunday two of my nails had chipped. by Tuesday 5 had chipped. I haven’t even been doing anything out of the ordinary with my hands that would make them chip. the lady said when I left to come back if it chips in 7 days. I don’t even want to waste my time bc the fix will probably chip the next day anyway. My other no chips last almost the full two weeks or more. I don’t see myself going back.

TV’s are behind the nail booths so you have to crank your head backwards to watch otherwise you are staring at a blank wall for an hour. The girl was nice but sloppy, made a few of my cuticles bleed.
I got a no chip manicure and my manicure chipped with in a few hours. After a week my nails were virtually destroyed. Worse no chip I have ever received and a total waste of money.

I came on a Friday afternoon and was immediately taken care of. The place is super clean and nice.
The nail technician was super friendly and professional. I loved my no chip manicure! The only con was that my nails were clipped shorter than what I would have preferred. However, it wasn’t a big deal.
Word of advice: let your technician know how short you want your nails.
I am on day 9 and my nails still look great! I recommend this place!

I like to get my nails done before going on vacation, so the day before my last trip I visited Nail Secrets. I have two other nail salons that I love, but they aren’t in my neighborhood and I was crunched for time. I read the Unilocal reviews and I was hoping Nail Secrets would be a new place to love that was within walking distance of my house. This was the worst pedicure and no-​chip manicure I have ever had.
I arrived at Nail Secrets as soon as it opened on Saturday morning. There is a free parking lot, and everything in the salon is new and shiny. The people who work there are very friendly. When I got there, there were plenty of nail techs and no clients besides me. I was feeling very positive about the experience. It was all downhill from there.
The pedicure lasted 20 minutes. There was literally no other client in the salon and the woman was working like she had an impatient line of ten people waiting. I kept checking my watch because I couldn’t believe how fast she was. I sat down at 9:30 and was finished at 9:50. This should have been my signal to head out the door, but I went ahead with the no chip manicure.
The nail tech used way too much product, causing bubbles in the polish and super thick layers on my nails. I kept asking her if things were ok because the process seemed a little off, but she kept telling me «Yes, yes. It’s alright.» Usually after getting a no-​chip, I feel like a superstar and love showing off my nails. After this no chip, I just wanted to hide my hands. I paid, and left.
When I got outside in the sunlight, I got a better look at her handiwork… I was SO irritated. Looking at my toes, some nails were partially painted, while others had excess polish all over the cuticles and skin. I could have done a better job myself using my left hand. My hands looked just as bad, with polish in really think layers on some nails, and barely there on others. To make matters worse, my no-​chip chipped less than 24 hours later.
Had I not been going out of town, I would have gone back and had someone fix what I can only describe as a hot mess. I tried to fix what I could at home, but I was pretty pissed after paying a «professional» $ 60. Needles to say, I will not be returning.
Yes, the place looks nice and the people are friendly, but their primary purpose is to do nails, which they don’t do well, and that’s all that really matters.

Talk about a secret. Nail Secrets is my new super secret favorite nail salon. Why the secret? Because I don’t want ya’ll crowding up the place and leaving me with a wait time!
I stopped in a few Friday evenings ago for a manicure. My apologies to the biker whom I nearly sideswiped to get into the parking lot. Because parking. This place is brand spankin’ new looking. Bleached beachy wooden floors, pretty and relaxing wall colors and beautiful manicure and pedicure stations create a really calm and peaceful setting. Even the décor is nicely done.
My manicure took more than 40 minutes, which I LOVED. The technician took extreme care to really give my little nails the full treatment. No seriously, tiniest nail beds ever. Technicians far and wide giggle with glee at my toddler-​sized nails and hands. They had a huge selection of polishes and an equally large selection of no-​chip colors.
I plan to come back on Sunday for a no-​chip and pedicure. Speaking of, no-​chips are just $ 30. THIRTY DOLLARS. So glad I’ve been paying $ 45 – 60 elsewhere! #sarcasm
A manicure runs $ 15, and a mani pedi is $ 40. And again, free parking.
