2025-08-23I rarely leave reviews yet received excellent service so I had to! Yesterday was my first time trying out Athens nails after hearing about it through a few friends. I showed up with a design, requested a color change, length change and a few altercations along the way. The wonderful woman who did my nails (I cannot remember not spell her name yet I’m sure it started with a J or G) did a lovely job at executing my idea!! These nails aren’t too thick or thin, the shape is lovely and I cannot stop staring at them!! I think I’ve found my favorite Athens nail salon (I’ve tried around 3/4 of them) PS: Inspo pic at the end!! Update: Athens nails is now under new ownership. I wrote this when they had their previous owners. I am unsure of how well the current nail technicians are at nail art yet I’m about to find out. I’ll leave a different review after I get them done!

2025-05-31Athens Nails is my favorite spot to go in town! Consistently accommodating with appointment times, fast service, and great conversation. My nails always feel so refreshed and polished when I leave. I highly recommend this spot for dip and French manicures!

2025-04-30I absolutely LOVE Athens Nails! My go to nail place in Athens over the last 7 years. The people are friendly, my nails have always been the shape and style I wanted, and last so long (the two green French tip photos show some of the grow out!)!
