Mod Nail Spa

I had some time to kill in Columbia (I came down for a wedding) and decided to get a mani/​pedi. Mod Spa had great reviews on Unilocal and honestly, I can see why. Not knowing, I made an appointment with the owner to handle my service. From the time I hit the door she was personable and prompt. She was also knowledgeable. She talked to me about some of the advantages of a gel set (I am so rough on traditional nail polish but had never tried gel) and I decided to take the plunge. When she realized I needed to kill more time she offered to let me hang out and use the wifi. Not only is Kim great but her staff and clients are so friendly. I seriously wish I could take everyone with me back to New Haven!

I visited Mod Nail Spa for the first time yesterday and was extremely impressed. I felt welcome, and Kim took great care of me. I made a reservation online and they were prompt with the start and end times, so I could plan accordingly. Great color selection as well! I will be returning, and highly recommend this nail salon.

Stopped in on my way to Florida to have my nails redone. Kim did a beautiful job. Thank you

Kim was soooo awesome! I took my daughter for her first mini pedi and medi for her third birthday and Kim made it an amazing experience! Would totally recommend!

Okay, I have ALWAYS had a horrible time with fake nails. I’ve always thought something was wrong with my nails, because they’ve ALWAYS start lifting after about four days, no matter where I’ve gone (and I’ve gone many places in different cities and states). I usually end up ripping them off after five days, max.
For the first time ever, I got nails done that didn’t start lifting until 11 days later… I actually kept the nails on for 13 days straight! They are strong and sturdy and looked nice the entire time.
Great job, and will return when I need nails again!

I recently moved to Columbia from Dallas, TX and have been disappointed in my search for a new nail salon until now. The girls were incredibly sweet, and knew all of their customers names. It’s a relaxed atmosphere with everyone interacting with each other. I felt more like I was hanging out with girlfriends then at a nail salon. Even though I came in without an appointment, they were more then happy to fit me in, and did a great job on my nails. Highly recommend Mod Nails to anyone in search of a new salon.

Excellent customer service in an immaculately clean setting. Unfortunately, I only go for a manicure/​pedicure once a year but the staff remembers me and even remembers what color I like! I couldn’t recommend Mod more highly.

I have never loved my nails like this before… EVER!!! I believe I her name was Lisa (she’s a little older lady) and she was amazing!!! I got full set acrylics and they look sooooooo natural and perfect!!! The best part was that she took her time to make sure they were exactly as I wanted! I will definitely be back in with her!!!

I have lived in Columbia for over a year and have been to so many places with such terrible results… AND THEN I FOUND Mod Nail Spa!!! I wished I had known about this place sooner! I called that morning and spoke with Kim and she told me she would work me in around lunchtime and when I walked in, I immediately felt at ease. It’s smaller, cozy, clean, and well-​decorated. I felt like I was in a spa! Kim showed me the gel polish colors and within about five minutes I was seated and started on the gel polish manicure. We chatted casually and within less than half hour I had stunning nails! Then Ivan took me over for my pedicure and it was lovely! Honestly, I have found my home-​nail salon!!! FINALLY!!! I am so pleased with the staff, the salon, and my beautiful results!

I tried mod spa on a whim one day for a gel manicure. I was unimpressed with the professionalism of the staff and the cramped atmosphere. They didn’t have many gel colors to choose from and when I left my nails were all different lengths.

I had a great experience here, Kim took such good care of me. I walked in Tuesday and they couldn’t fit me in immediately but Kim took my number and said she’d call if there was a cancellation. She did call later but I was busy so I made an appointment for the next day. Day of my appointment I went in 30 min early to soak my gel nails off. They were crazy busy because of Easter but I was taken care of and they listened to everything I asked for. I will DEFINITELY go back to get filled in.
They take walk-​ins if there’s an open artist, but making an appointment online is the best and easiest way to make sure you don’t have to wait or come back later.

Im from out of town. Needed a gel polish. Was driving past so I called. Kim got me in within 5 min. So sweet and very professional! She did an amazing job! They are very busy so make sure u call for an appointment! I will definitely come back!

I moved to Columbia less than 2 weeks ago, so I had no clue which nail salon to try first. So, I hopped onto Unilocal,found Mod, went for a gel fill-​in, brow wax & pedi, & LOVED it!
The owner, Kim, did my brows & fill-​in, & she’s so sweet! Her work is wonderful, & so is her work ethic. Since it was my very 1^st time at Mod, she explained EVERYTHING: the pricing, exactly how the service was performed, etc. She made me feel very comfortable.
Candice did my pedicure, & she was just as nice, funny and professional as Kim! Her massage felt great, too.
This is my new nail salon home!

I use to go to the nail salon next to the Bi-​lo but I won’t be able to go anywhere else now. I go every other Friday and get a pedicure while my mom gets a pedi and gel nails. Always friendly staff and they always get me scheduled for the time frame I want. Never had any complaints. Job well done
