Been going to GNC for about just shy of 3 years exclusively seeing Joyce for the past 2 years. She is beyond wonderful, she takes the time to hear your vision then create a visual to confirm it is what I am wanting. She takes extreme care in the little details and is a joy to watch work. Wouldn’t go anywhere else to get my nails done monthly!!! Yes that’s right MONTHLY, my nails last me 4+ weeks, girls nail cave is about quality service, products and overall experience. I recommend them to everyone!

She is also so sweet and i look forward to seeing and catching up with her each time! 100% recommend

I booked an appointment with the nail cave weeks before a big event, paid the deposit and the appointment was confirmed by the nail cave. I received a reminder email about a week before hand, but then 48 hours before my appointment I received a text message that the tech was going out of town, and would not be in town for my appointment so would need to reschedule. They stated they were unsure how I was able to book the appointment through their scheduling system as their calendar was closed, which I received multiple messages that the appointment was confirmed by the business. They attempted to get me to rebook with another tech, but my schedule was packed (I work 12+ hour shifts most days) and it was only 48 hours before my appointment. I had made sure to take the day I had booked off specifically to take care of getting my nails done and a few other things (this was for my step son's wedding so there would be lots of pictures, etc). The last message that I received was that they were not sure they could refund my deposit that I had paid to their website through Zelle. This felt kind of scammy to me, I don't have Zelle, and if your website can automatically charge my card for a deposit why can it not be refunded? So not only was I out a nail appointment, given my other constraints I had to make due for his big day and I am out my deposit as well. Big disappointment as I had heard so many good things and I try to support small, local, businesses.

I made an appointment July 5th for 12:30 PM today and paid a $21 deposit. Got a text message and confirmation email. I showed up, place was locked and empty. Thought okay maybe theyre on their breaks, lunches, etc. Wait a half hour. Still empty and lockedπŸ₯². This place has done my nails before which is why I went back, but a heads up for a cancellation, a call, even a message, anything wouldve been nice so I didnt have to waste time coming for an appointment that wouldnt happen. I called and no one answered. lf you book, do the deposit with your credit card so you can be ready to dispute if you have a smililar experience. I ended up going to a popular nails place in Southington which was cheaper, same (if not better) quality, and I didnt have to wait 10+ minutes for an appointment I already had like I did here last time.
