Four of us girls here from Minnesota got pedicures at Modern Nails. They are FABULOUS. Would highly recommend them. They were punctual, professional and did a great pedicure. Wish we lived here to keep coming

Horrendous experience for a customer who has been a steady client for years. My experience for a gel manicure started with David. He did not greet me and then he layed a stained coffee napkin down over top of a towel for me to put my hands on. This started out very bad and left me thinking to call the public health department on this business. He was rough, he was rushing the manicure, missing dry and rough cuticles. At the end of the manicure he rubs oil into my hands and does not offer me a hot cloth. When I got home I realized the shellac did not take and my 4 of my nails were dull and the rest were shiny. It was a painfull experience. I will never return to this business. I am not sure if the person doing my manicure is even licensed. I will find out however. This place used to be great but it has sadly changed.

I went in last Friday, my appoint was at 3:30 I wasn’t seen until 4:00 which is usually understandable. I wanted to do black and red ombré. The tech was unable to make it look good although he only attempted on 2 nails. We decided to go with my second option which was black heart tips. Like a French tip but black and shaped like a heart. I assumed he was going to do 2 coats, he only did one. When I stated that they didn’t look like hearts he told me I should have let him know sooner. If I knew that was going to be the end result, I would have. Then we decided just to do them black. He didn’t do a great job at painting them. But I was happy to finally leave. He was flustered as well. Then today while at work a piece of the gel fell off of my nail. Under it was still wet. So obviously it means that it wasn’t cured correctly. I called and the weren’t going to be able to get me on until Wednesday, which is in 2 days. Then I asked to speak to the manager. She said she could fix them for me today. She also stated that she remembered me and that I took to long to make a decision. I stated that if her tech was trained correctly I would have had my first option done. I sat in the waiting area for 30 minutes so I had that time to make my decision. Then she stated that I may have to pay even though they weren’t cured correctly. So I’m going else where and paying there. I’m not going back to inept people that don’t acknowledge their faults and give me bad vibes.

Modern nails is amazing and all of their staff are very kind and friendly. They have so many colors to choose from and it’s the best local nail salon in my opinion. I tried a different place and it was not as good. Highly recommend!
