I had such a wonderful experience at Polish Me OBX! From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with warmth and professionalism. The salon itself is spotless, beautifully decorated, and has a relaxing atmosphere that instantly puts you at ease. My nail technician was not only skilled but also incredibly attentive to detail. She took the time to listen to what I wanted, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the appointment. What really stood out was the level of care they put into cleanliness and customer service. Every tool was sanitized, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure I felt pampered. Highly recommend!

Absolutely loved our experience! Highly recommend. Our group got a mixture of pedicures and manicures with dip and one with acrylic. Edna did my acrylic and design and it was amazing, she's an artist and I will definitely be coming back!! They provide delicious drinks as well 🫶🏼Make sure to make an appointment ahead of time.

Best nail shop in the OBX by far. I have been getting nails done all over for about 25 years. So happy to have found this gem. Gracie, her husband and all of her staff are beyond friendly, timely and talented. Evelyn is my go to and my daughter looks forward to seeing Gracie. Recent Halloween nails by Evelyn. Thanks ladies. Look forward to seeing y'all again.

Gracie absolutely made my day! I came in right before closing after having a really rough day, and she (along with the rest of the staff) went above and beyond to make sure I left smiling. She was so polite and thoughtful—offering beverages and doing everything she could to make my experience comfortable. The atmosphere in the salon is amazing—so vibrant and welcoming—and the decor is absolutely stunning. Everyone there was so kind and down to earth; you can really tell they care about their clients. And my nails? They turned out exactly like the inspo picture I showed her! By far one of the nicest salons I’ve ever been to. Thank you, Gracie, for turning my day around! 💅✨

I have had both a pedicure and full set from Polish Me. My pedicure was amazing and Gracie made me feel so relaxed while I sat in the massage chair, sipped on a mimosa, and she massaged and pampered my toes. I was so impressed with the salon’s ambience (they are appointment only, so much more relaxing when you know 7 people wont walk in and make everyone rush to finish you) that I immediately booked my nail appointment as well. I had the best experience ever with Evelyn. She gave me a proper dry manicure, prepped my nails insanely well, sealed my cuticles to ensure no lifting/peeling occurred, took her time. When she did my gel-x, she took additional time to put another layer of gel on top. Evelyn pays exceptional attention to detail, has natural artistic talent, and my nails turned out just like the inspo pic! Many salons on the beach don’t even offer gel-x, let alone execute it so flawlessly. I should also mention that Evelyn spent the entire service exclusively working and focusing on me, she never had to stop and answer the phone or talk to another client because they actually have a receptionist/greeter. It was insanely professional through and through! I am so so happy I went to Polish Me over other places on the beach as they are not just another place trying to turn out tourists, they are bonafide nail ARTISTS!
