I used to love going to AJ nails about six years ago until new people came. there is a man that works there and he literally cut my fingers and he forcefully grabs my finger and pressed hard and doesn’t acknowledge I used to love going to AJ nails about six years ago until new people came. there is a man that works there and he literally cut my fingers and he forcefully grabs my finger and pressed hard and doesn’t acknowledge my discomfort. He got too close to my cuticles and cut me! my fingers were sore for days!! I do not recommend this place- honestly, that man shouldn’t be doing nails .. And not to mention he made my fingernails crooked and the painting looks awful 😞 I honestly will never go there again until there is new people. Please don’t waste your money or your time you will be in pain. I had to repaint my nails myself 💅 more ... less ...

I came in as a walk-in and was seated within 10 minutes of coming into the salon, not a long wait time at all! Vinny and his wife both did a wonderful job on my nails!! Vinny did a beautiful, sakura pink stiletto liquid I came in as a walk-in and was seated within 10 minutes of coming into the salon, not a long wait time at all! Vinny and his wife both did a wonderful job on my nails!! Vinny did a beautiful, sakura pink stiletto liquid gel manicure, while his wife did a white gel pedicure, followed by a relaxing foot massage AND she waxed my eyebrows to perfection! Both of them were very detail oriented and they didn’t rush, they took their time and held pleasant conversation with me while they worked their magic. I was even given a cup of wine and a bottle of water while in the massage chair, which was a pleasant surprise. Being a first time mom to a 2-month old, it felt so, so nice to have somebody take care of me and be so kind to me after putting everything into taking care of my baby. Overall, I was very pleased with the service I was given and I expect to return from now on for all of my beauty services!!\n\nAn extra plus, they have an ADORABLE puppy named Rampage, who just makes the atmosphere more comfortable and fun to those who have to wait!! 11/10 salon experience. Extra photo of the puppy, and me attached to show the results of my eyebrow wax! more ... less ...

Store opened at 10am. I Called 2 days prior to make an appointment for me and my sister who has stage 4 lung cancer to get pedicures. We arrive at 10 they already have 6 people soaking their feet and only 3 workers. Why Store opened at 10am. I Called 2 days prior to make an appointment for me and my sister who has stage 4 lung cancer to get pedicures. We arrive at 10 they already have 6 people soaking their feet and only 3 workers. Why would you take walk ins starting at 9am per the sign in sheet if you don’t open until 10am and you know you have 2 appointments arriving at 10. I was not going to wait when I had made an appointment for a reason, my sister cannot sit wait an hour after our appointment time in her condition, shame on them! I have been to this salon many times and this has never happened. So sad that they make appointments and don’t honor them. Apparently they will take the money of those just walking in and have people with appointments wait. You will never see a dime of my money again! more ... less ...

I moved to Garner in June & was very careful about where I chose to get my nails done- since I had a wonderful place in PA. I had the most wonderful experience. My pedicure was great (although, next time I probably would I moved to Garner in June & was very careful about where I chose to get my nails done- since I had a wonderful place in PA. I had the most wonderful experience. My pedicure was great (although, next time I probably wouldn’t get polish on my toes because it was an extra $20 and I got a super light color- but I knew this going into it). I also got this full set of acrylics & I’m obsessed! The lady that did them was so sweet & delivered EXACTLY what I asked. I will absolutely be going back for a fill & I plan to get the woman’s name who did these- so I can be a regular! more ... less ...

If I could give NEGATIVE STARS I would. This place is an absolute disgrace. It is the most unsanitary nail salon I have ever been to. My mom and I went in for pedicures. The place is not kept well and didnt look very nic If I could give NEGATIVE STARS I would. This place is an absolute disgrace. It is the most unsanitary nail salon I have ever been to. My mom and I went in for pedicures. The place is not kept well and didnt look very nice. She didnt get started on me for over 20 mins while I sat with my feet in cold water. She finished up with one lady and used the same gloves she used for her manicure to handle her money and then didnt change gloves before starting on me. The chair I was in did not work and my legs were basically at right angles- super uncomfortable. The water was cold and when I asked if it could be warmed she rolled her eyes and used an old cut up milk jug to scoop the water out and pour into the tub of the chair next to mine (which was not cleaned after) I guess my chairs tub didnt drain? They used the cheese grater looking things to scrape my heels, then she tapped it on the floor, rinsed it in my dirty water, and put it back in the drawer she took it out of. Same with all the other tools she used- unclean- used- rinsed in foot water- put back in the drawer. The nail/cuticle clippers and files are all covered in nail dust sitting in glass cups at the stations and again used-rinsed- put back in the cups. Nothing was pulled out of sanitation machine packaging. The file had been so used the sandpaper was tearing off. They clipped my inner big toenail which was very painful and now causing an ingrown nail. She also started cutting my first toenail without asking if I wanted them short or shaped- I asked her not to cut and just to file them and she sneakily kept cutting my nails with the cuticle clippers every time I looked away. She cut a few of them so short they were raw and bled later. She used some kind of harder bristle brush to scrub my feet on top and bottom- she scrubbed so hard it felt like she was breaking skin. She used her dirty gloved hand to reach into a jar and scoop out scrub to rub on my legs (hello contamination). There really was no massage- she poured some oil over my legs and rubbed it in. Aside from the sanitation issues and abrasive treatment- the paint job was horrid. Didnt even brush the paint onto my toenails- literally used the brush to glob paint on (this was regular polish not dip or gel) and kept adding acetone to the bottle to thin out the polish. Didnt wait any time before globing on the next layer and sloppily swiping topcoat across the top. My mom noticed a spot on her nail that was blotchy and asked her older lady nail tech to fix it and she argued that it was fine and wouldnt redo that nail- another lady I presume the owner stepped in and fixed it. My mom wasnt aware what all was happening at my chair and we had masks on so she couldnt see my terrified facial expressions. My mom and I both poured rubbing alcohol over our feet when we got home to try to prevent fungus/infection. Its been a day and I have some sort of rash or maybe abrasions from her scrubbing the tops of my feet so hard with that brush. I wanted to leave after every step of this process but dont get pedicures with my mom often and didnt want to ruin our experience together (my mom was also paying for me so I didnt want to seem ungrateful). I will NEVER go back and STRONGLY DISCOURAGE anyone reading this to not go here either. I will be contacting the health department about investigating this place. more ... less ...
