2025-11-05Rating two star just cause the girl that did my nails was very friendly and made conversation with me but the job was not good compare to the price. I booked an appt $69 plus tax plus tip for a dip with extensions making it almost $85, you can see the pictures theyโre not shaped evenly and theyโre flat, I got to my car and was very sad with the outcome of this job. The cuticle nipper used on me had rust on it but I was too embarrassed to mention anything to her cause she was so friendly, but you guys should definitely check your tools and replace them. The color I picked was a more brownish/pink and they turned out very pink and I mentioned it to her and she said the colors on the board are old so thatโs why they look different so besides a bad, skinny shaped nails I got a color I wasnโt looking for. Iโm okay with pink but I would never pay this price again for a job like this. Press on nails wouldโve looked better. I know itโs not her fault but I was hoping to find a place where I can get my nails done regularly now and this isnโt it. Thank you.

2024-06-05Respectfully, I don't know how this place received 4.7 stars. I googled nail salons in Gahanna, and this was the highest rated salon that appeared. Today my best friend and I went for my birthday. I had a gel manicure and she had a gel x manicure. The salon smelled like mildew. We proceeded in because we understand that building things happen but still an unpleasant smell. My manicurist didn't remove my nail polish too well. It was black polish that stained some of my skin. Next, she drilled my nails to buff them, but proceeded to push back and cut my cuticles without soaking/softening them. She did a good job with the cut, but I would have liked having my cuticles properly prepped. I asked for cat eye nails; the gel application was fine, but there isn't a clear definition of the cat eye design. It mostly just looks like silver nail polish. The skin around my nails was not properly cleaned up so the job looks messy overall, and there is a buble in one of my nails. My friend's manicurist also did not properly prep her cuticles and crookedly applied some of her gel extensions. Her manicurist only applied two coats of polish so you can see through the nail. The shape was done well, but the skin around her nails was not properly cleaned either. The manicurists were nice, and we spent less than an hour getting our nails done; but the jobs looked like something you could do at home or a beauty school, and it most certainly was not worth $170+ (tip excluded). Now before you go saying, "well, was it busy, and why did you pay?" There was only one other patron in the salon, and sometimes, immediate confrontation can be hard for me, so I offer this honest review as some consolation for myself and a directive for someone thinking of going to Shiny Nails. All in all, my friend and I will not be returning.

2023-09-16I went to Shiny Nails after hearing amazing reviews about the establishment. Staff was very friendly but I was charged $107.00 for a gel (jelly) pedicure that was the worst pedicure of my life. Gel looked like an amateur applied it, nails are all uneven, none of my dead skin was filed off and overall the pedicure was poor. Nice young person (A) was my nail person. Looks like my niece did them.

2018-12-09The best nails ๐ salon ever. Very professional courteous nice pleasant sweet & awesome. I read several.reviews before I came to this salon . All of the nail technicians was excellent. Dan owner is Great never had him because he wasnt taken new clients... Melinda, Aayliah, Emily, Aires. & Raqal are awesome. Raqal my favorite with Eeres & Emily all have same unique style. Melinda & Aayiah do nails the same. Appointments only very rare walk ins taken. The ambience is always nice. I am diabetic so I have to be very cautious @ anyone who cuts my nails. I had been doing my nails for years. Saturday I can say I finally found the right one for my pedicure Raqal . The pedicure was delightful & relaxing. It was over 25 years since I had nails done professionally I searched a while this was the place with all great reviews no negative. I am stuck...๐๐๐ (excuse a few pictures late posting๐)
