It was crime shows and pamper toes for me today at Alpha Nail Spa thanks to Linda! I'm glad I did the pedicure with the paraffin wax, massage I didn't know it was, view and hot rocks. Linda did a phenomenal job and the VIP room was perfect after a long day of teaching high schoolers! Mia was absolutely amazing with my November nail set. I wanted to try the bangles design and delivered. Staff is extremely friendly.

Okay, I have definitely loved them and spent a lot of money here however I didnโ€™t have the best experience this time. I was explaining what I wanted and Iโ€™m guessing it didnโ€™t come across. I still have remnants of my last black design. I can never be rude so I accepted it, but itโ€™s not what I wanted. Iโ€™ll post what I wanted vs what I got.

I am absolutely in LOVE with my nails. My nail Tech Eric understood exactly what I wanted and he executed it perfectly! I wish I could take him back with me to North Carolina but anytime I'm back in the area, I will stop by. I also did a deluxe pedi w/ my husband (he got a mani too!) All of them did a wonderful job. Great service, awesome atmosphere, highly recommend!!!

The service was amazing! As soon as I walked in I was taken care of and offered water or soda. They did an amazing job on my nails, and the price is the best I've paid! Im so excited to show off my nails that'll match my class ring.
