Nail Shadow Buckhead

Kimmie always does an AMAZING job on my nails! Keeps them beautiful and healthy so my natural nails can shine with her beautiful designs!

I’ve been coming here for a long time now. I got my nails done on Friday, it has been 3 days and my nails have chipped, one has fallen off less than 12 hours after i got them done (i came in and they fixed it) and now the other nails are falling apart. i got builder gel, which they told me would be lasting and better quality. these nails have completely been falling apart and i’ve had them for 3 days and i don’t do anything vigorous with my hands. I am very disappointed as these nails were so expensive and I tipped the nail tech $25. also, it was extra to get my cuticles cut? this is something that should be included, especially because they don’t do a good job. I will not be returning to this nail salon.

Tan is the absolute best! I thought I lost him but I found him here! If you want spectacular nails and great conversation, ask for Tan!! Best nail technician I’ve ever had! Professional funny and a great eye for beautiful nails. His wife Anne also works here and she is absolutely lovely. Whenever my daughter and I go to get our nails together, we always ask for Tan and Anne!!

Traveling to ATL for a couple days I needed a basic manicure and found this place was recommended. I asked for a basic manicure and a 4-n-1 pedicure at this salon. Kimmie was the technician on my feet and a lovely, elderly lady did my manicure. I was wearing a beautiful multi-carat simulated diamond wedding set that I travel with that Kimmie was constantly looking at. Once she started my pedicure, she asked if I wanted to wax my feet. I declined. She soon decided she needed a closer look at my ring and got about 6 inches away from my hand to get a better look. After a couple seconds she said a few words in Vietnamese, then in English "not real". It was so rude of her, but I opted not to escalate the remark and simply replied to her that I don't travel with my real jewelry even though I didn't owe her any explanation. She didn't respond to me. My husband was with me and a few minutes later i saw he looked a bit out of it so I asked him if he was hungry. He said he wasn't. After Kimmie finished my nails I was waiting for them to dry when she walked past us while eating an apple. She suddenly turned around and asked my husband if he wanted a bite, saying he looked hungry. He again declined. Just then, a co-worker of hers came over and told her to stop taunting my husband. It was very noticeable that the co-worker was upset with Kimmie and took her aside to talk privately. What they didn't know was my dad was a Vietnam vet and spoke Vietnamese which he taught me. I also brushed up recently because of a trip to SE Asia I just returned from in January. I could overhear them and was quite disgusted by what was said. Evidently, Kimmie thought the hair on my toes was nasty, that I was somehow not worthy because of my fake ring, and that my husband looked hungry, homeless and poor. I was shocked at being so disrespected, especially me being an elder to whom they were providing a service. After my nails dried, I called her over and then let Kimmie know that I speak their language and left. It was a very disheartening experience, but being in town for medical appointments I didn't want to further ruin my stay, but I will certainly look for a salon that respects me and my money the next time.

I had the 4-in-1 pedicure and really enjoyed the experience. It included a scrub, mask, and massage, which made it feel like a special treat. Michael did a great job. He was attentive, thorough, and made the entire experience enjoyable. If you’re looking for a relaxing pedicure and a little self-care, I highly recommend booking with him.
