Creative Nails Tan & Alterations

The place looks like a Standard nail salon. My technician was efficient if anything. He did one pump foam soap from the sink, tossed in some marbles and pour COLD water. My hands were in the bowl for maybe one minute before he took them out and started working on them. He did an average job on my nails, and then a 10 second massage. My eyebrows were done horrible. I told the lady doing them I wanted them cleaned up. She left behind a TON of hair, and it looked shapeless and unclean. People were nice, but this place didn’t hit the mark for me.

I highly recommended Creative Nails & Tan. They always give excellent customer care. I have grown fond of Lily. She does amazing work and also talks with me. That makes my experience that much better. There are pedicure stations with massage chairs, tanning beds and outstanding nail services! They also offer beverages while you’re there. I found my home.

I visited this nail 4 weeks ago for a spa mani-pedi $60. The lady who did my nails did a great job! The nail polish I selected was very opaque. I did not realize how thick the nail polish was until the lady put on the first coat. She did a second coat and it was really nice, it was even on all sides, smooth and it dried nicely. She was very nice, everyone was very nice, they place was clean and the customers that were sitting around me were telling me how they have been coming there for years and they love it. I am not good with names, I do not remember the lady's name but I would like to make this place my regular nail place. When I get her name, I will update the post with it. This place is 12 minutes from home but you know sometimes it is hard to find a nice place you like for personal care, so I will keep with them. I have included a pic of the nail polish with the numbers, they are pink and blue. I hope you like them also. I do not normally select colors like this but you must learn to be different and be a happy person for yourself. Do things that make you happy and feel good when you can. Love yourself! We get ours mani-pedi's because it makes us feel better, its relaxing, the massage is nice and it give us a little time for ourselves. It feels good when you get this type of service done in a nice place with nice people. Thanks : -Ivory Update - the lady's name is Syndey :

I absolutely dislike leaving bad reviews. But I must share my experience with this nail salon. This used to be my go to nail salon very professional friendly service. I remember a guy managing the place a while back very very friendly funny guy. I been here a total of 3 times in the past 2 months and got denied service. 1 time is was busy but the last 2 times it was not. The same lady keeps turning me away a older lady. I hate to think that she’s doing it because I’m african American and majority of their customers are Caucasian. Idk but I will not be returning back there. Just sad!Services: Pedicure

The best! The owners - Emily & Ken - take great pride in this salon and it shows! It’s always great quality - both manicures & pedicures. Large selection of polish I do gel but they also offer many colors of regular polish and dip/SNS, always clean, and comparable or less expensive to the prices at other nail salons in Charlotte. Everyone there is always very attentive - greeting and saying goodbye to every customer! I try to make an appointment, but they do also accept walk-ins as well and I can tell they try to accommodate everyone as quickly as they can. I have and continue to recommend Creative Nails to friends - I can’t say enough good things about this place!

Stopped in because I was in the area and I used to come here years ago when I did yoga at the studio near by. My first technician didn't understand what I was saying...so I was assited by another... I like designs on my toes.. not too many knew how to design and I thought my technician would be able to complete the design... I couldn't wait for another technician...time to go. Not too much along the lines of social distancing.. like other salons... I looked up and someone sat in the chair next to me. Not 2 chairs down as in other salons... double time to go. The service was fine... just missing the old touch of the technicians that did it all.Service: Pedicure

I have been going to Creative Nails for months now. I ALWAYS get a quality mani/pedi and I am always treated with the utmost courtesy and respect. If you are reading reviews from a few years ago, keep in mind that Ken is a recent owner and things have changed-definitely for the better-since he took over. And to the lady who thought she was being overlooked due to her race... I truly don't think they'd do that. Both myself and my daughter African Americans go there. We love it.
