2025-08-25Just left the Corner Nails Lounge overall was good experience. I was a walk in and they were able to take me right away. I got bio gel on my natural nails. The first photo the top half is the reference photo I showed them and the bottom is my nails. Itโs pretty close but not quite the same. The price they quoted during consult was the price I was charged and I wasnโt pressured for add ons which I appreciated. During the initial consult the lady I talked to swapped out for Nancy I think because they thought she could do it better. I think somewhere in the switch it got lost that I was wanting some of the nails to be blue/purple chrome like the photo. When the first color went on it was pink but I wasnโt sure whether to say something about wanting blue as well because I thought the color difference might come from the chrome technique later on. I did mention it during the chrome application but the difference between the pink and blue chrome is minimal as the chrome is quite sheer which I didnโt know beforehand because I donโt get my nails done often. Also looking back at the reference photo (which tbh is kinda dark) I noticed the metal details were gold but that was my bad I chose silver though now I wish I picked gold instead. At first Nancy tried a regular gel for the silver detail but I asked if she could do the silver with a chrome finish so it would be shiner and she was able to make that happen. The only downside of this which I didnโt know until after is that in order to do that she had to put a special coat over the pink chrome so it wouldnโt get affected by the silver and that made it more matte though the final topcoat brought back some of the shiny chrome effect but not as much as before. I do wish there was more of metallic details in the reference photo theyโre a bit wider and spread out more across the nail. I think my results were a bit more minimal in comparison but I wasnโt cross checking a lot throughout the process and Iโm sure if I said something she would have been accommodating. I would suggest, especially if youโre wanting some very specific techniques and designsโฆ just be sure to communicate everything you want very specifically throughout the process and pay attention to whatโs happening so that if thereโs any miscommunication or issues it can be fixed. I think if I knew more about the techniques I could have communicated what I wanted better too. From my experience Nancy was very professional and flexible it was just some errors on my side for not being more vocal about what I wanted. Iโm giving 5 stars because service was quick, everyone was friendly, my nails feel really nice, smooth, and protected (I wanted something to strengthen my natural nails because they get damaged easily when I clean and bio gel was a great option for that), and I do think they gave what I asked for and as I mentioned any issues with the final results were because I didnโt communicate well enough. Nancy said she manicure should last about 3 weeks which is how long my vacation is so hopefully it will hold up throughout my trip. Location is very convenient for me so Iโll coming back. I think next time Iโll get plain chrome or I noticed some really pretty cat eye color options as well.

2025-09-07I went there yesterday and the technician was more worried about the tip $$ from her last client than actually doing my nails. She rushed, painted them so poorly that the polish peeled off in less than 24 hours. This is the second time Iโve had problems with this salon, and shame on me for giving it another chance. Never again. $85 completely thrown in the trash in less than a day.
