Nails & Hair Emporium

Wondered into this place for a pedicure on Sunday and was SHOCKED with the 1 star hate for this place. While it’s not the Four Seasons, I received a pretty great pedicure for $ 22. I didn’t have time for a mani, but noticed that if you mention you’re tight on time, they’ll do hands & feet at the same time. Love that!
Are the tubs a little dated? Sure. Best massage chairs I’ve ever used? No. But the women are nice, the services are priced right, and I had a pretty great experience.
Ignore the 1 star haters and check this place out for yourself.

All these negative reviews really say it all.
This place is AWFUL.
I desperately needed a mani. and decided to just come here since it was right next to the UPS store (needed to drop off a package) — which would save me some time.
First. I walked in with no greeting. The atmosphere of this place is cold. Unfriendly, mean workers who hate their job. Thankfully, I just needed a quick mani so I knew it wouldn’t take too long. but man, I wanted to immediately just be finished and run out the door.
The owner here is absolutely a grinch. Funny thing though. she was reading a Bible when I walked in, I thought it was the cutest thing in the world. until seconds later. As each customer came in or left, she didn’t lift up her head up once. I understood everything she said to her workers since I’m Korean myself. One of the workers told her to go back and eat since it wasn’t busy but she yelled at her back to leave her alone.
10 minutes later, another worker asked her a question… and the owner literally turns her head and replies «sometimes, you should not ask unnecessary questions.»
How. is it possible to speak to your workers like that? Outrageous.
I felt so uncomfortable as a customer that I just wanted to leave.
Also. to top it off — they don’t have any music or TV’s here. BUT you can clearly hear the loud music from the store next door. which was the only thing that kept me entertained.
Go do yourself a favor and head further down to Nail House VII. or. anywhere but here.

Absolute worst pedicure I have ever had. First of all the place is falling apart. The first seat I was seated in was broken, the massage didn’t work, and the bubbles in the basin were broken. The pedicurist was kind enough to move me to another seat. The place smelled like sulphur and there were flies everywhere, but I stayed because the place was full so I thought there must be something good here. WRONG! Callus removing– and nothing special might I add– was $ 5 extra. She lotioned my legs and feet but no massage. What the heck? I should’ve stuck with my tried and true Noble Nails. Never ever again.

I’ve been going here since 2008. I travel frequently and have been to numerous saloons but will no longer go anywhere else but here and I don’t live in the area.

This is my go to place for mani and pedi! I am very particular about my pedicures and I hate to be rushed in the chair. All of the ladies here are so nice and take their time! Foot massage is always amazing! I usually add on an extra 10 min massage. Also, worth the few extra bucks to get the callus remover with the regular pedicure. Love this place!

Come here every once in awhile before Trader Joes. Yesterday I went in for a mani and pedi. There was one other person in the place and not busy. They set me up to do both at once. I wanted to relax and not be rushed so I said I will wait on the manicure. I could tell they weren’t happy. Then I asked for my toenails to be cut short. She was rude and said they can only be filed. Once onto the manicure, she cut my cuticles and just wiped the tool off and put back in tray. Not sanitary. She then cut my finger nails so short that they are below nail bed and hurt. A manicure shouldn’t cause pain. In the middle of my manicure she walked away to heat up her lunch. It seemed I was more of an inconvenience than anything. After I dried, I got up to leave and usually the workers say goodbye. Nothing was said. Very cold staff and unprofessional. Too bad I won’t be returning. The staff all have attitudes and I am pretty sure they were talking about me. Was not a relaxing experience.

Excellent manicure and pedicure here. They are the cheapest prices in the area and have a ton of color selection, even for gel manicure which can be hard to find. Everyone is really sweet and accommodating. The best place to go in this area.

Terrible salon!!! Very old and dated look. We were barely greeted when we walked in. The women doing the pedicure for my fiancé and I were talking crap about me in Spanish because I came in with skinny jeans. They were tight buuuuuuut the only reason I didn’t have my usual pedi-​approved attire was because we just popped in before going to Trader Joe’s.
The tubs for the pedicures are DISGUSTING!!! They are stained with only
God knows what. My fiancé beggeddddd me not to make a scene but I was going to run straight out of that front door. I asked to have the tubs cleaned more than just two sprays of 409 and a water rinse. I’m not up for foot fungus. –_​–
Then, I was told the polish I wanted would be sheer because she didn’t want to put two coats on. Seriously!!!
Also, I am a nail polish freak and I used an OPI polish for my pedi and it was so thin and streaky. There’s no way this was the same polish I have at home. Such a disappointment! :-(
If there is ANYTHING I would recommend it would be to stay away from this place altogether.

I stopped by here to get my nails done since it’s located in the same shopping center as Trader Joe’s. I was going to get a full set of tips. Good thing I asked the lady how much before I sat down, she wanted to charge me $ 65 for a full set of nails. That is a beyond outrageous price. I simply turned around a walked out. I can’t speak for their services but their prices are outrageous.

Let’s start by saying «Are you insane with these prices!!! «pedicure + permanent French = $ 105 !!! Everywhere else around $ 60 tops. Then you get that typical Korean stuck up attitude and it comes with a creepy bathroom. Don’t waste your time or money. Yuck!

This place sucks!
Very cold atmosphere indeed.
A salon should be a place of relaxation but instead this place is filled with screaming Koreans. Kay the owner who sits right in the front never says as little as a «hello».
The staff is a waste of employment. They just sit around gossip and winne the whole time. Loud, bad attitudes and unpleasant faces to the clients. It is almost like they have a problem with you walking in.
The only girl that does a good job here is Helen and she deserves a good tip for the pedicure she gave me and one will be rewarded.
If you must come here which is the case for most of us because of location then just choose to work with Helen.
She really is the only good associate.
Good job Helen.

This place has really gone down hill in quality over the past 2 years. It used to be my go to place for beautiful nails and a relaxing experience. Then I started to noticed more and more how fast my nails would chip right after I got them done… I do extensions on my nails occasionally and their technique seems to last 2 –3 days before a nail breaks off. I had it done once where a nail broke off that very day. It’s $ 5 to replace a nail… You’re suppose to go back every 2 weeks for a $ 25 fill in, the last time I went back I needed 5 nails replaced, meanwhile it cost $ 62 originally to have them done… that should not happen. I do not even have a hard laboring job! Almost all my coworkers have fake nails and never break any! So I’m just completely done with them. And on top of it, it’s no longer relaxing… It’s mostly bickering among all the workers, snotty attitudes, and an all around unpleasant environment. Save your money and get better quality elsewhere.

I really wanted to like this place since its very close to home. The moment I walked in i could tell i wasn’t going to like this place, but decided to give them a try.
I sat down for my pedicure, I immediately smelled something bad, I’m not to sure what it was but it smelled of something old or something sour.
Next, the lady doing my feet had MAJOR attitude, not talking much at all, and when i asked to change my color since it was a bad color for my complexion, i requested another basic color — white — the attendant had a huge issue with describing the different whites to me and even bigger issue when she had to get off her butt and go get it.
Overall I will never go back to this place nor will i recommend it to any girlfriends.

Kay is the best! Young nails gel.

Awful. Terrible service, snooty, and poor quality pedicure.

This place is quick (if you get a mani/​pedi they do them at the same time), reasonably priced, and has a good selecton of Essie and OPI. The techs are hit or miss (generally the pedicures are way better than the manicures). It’s convenient for me and I like that you can walk in and there’s rarely a wait.

I agree with Bella. The place unfriendly with a bad attitude from the owner who doesn’t care about customers concerns to the manicurists who are an ever –revolving door. One of the girls did such a poor manicure job that the I asked the owner to re-​do the job. The owner, Kay, just looked at me like it was my fault, and, did what she had to do and STILL charged me — and at full price too! Only thing she’s good for is brow and bikini wax but everytime I walked in there, never a friendly hello, how you doin’ courtesy. Instead, dead silence, go in the room, wax, done. Icy cold atmosphere. I don’t plan on going back. They deserve a penny from anyone if they’re going to continue this nonsense. They’ll be out of business faster than one can blink an eye.

I am suprised that nobody has reviewed this place. Unfortunately, I have to be the first.
I had just moved here from out of state and needed my gel nails filled. I would go easily 3 weeks with my set of nails and not have one break.
I was really excited to try something new. Not only did I ask for just a polish change on my feet and they went and gave me a full pedicure… whatever I didn’t care, but they definitely didn’t listen.
When it came to my hands, I felt bad. One thing I didn’t know is that they use only nail files on your hands. That’s great if you don’t want a drill, but I don’t know anyone who likes to have fake nails with no drills used. If you’re one of those people then you must live under a rock and never heard of shellac. So, anyways:
The person was very mean. She was also very slow and super rude. The whole time she kept complaining about the product on my nails. My product was actually good! My nails never broke!
They are the worst nail salon I think Ive gone to and will never return. It was over $ 60 for a fill. One snapped off as soon as i got home and I went back so she could fix it and I got another dose of attitude. Terrible service. You can take your throwback out dated Nail Emporium and have fun torturing people. I’m glad I don’t go there anymore.
