The business charges excessive prices for acrylic nail removal services.

Business reply on Google

Hi Hannah, I'm sorry you were not pleased with your removal. We try to make it very clear on our website and booking system that we do not remove acrylic or dip. You booked your appointment online incorrect and we did our best to provide you a service and also adjusted the price for you. It seems that we would have been better off cancelling your appointment.

Hi Gina, we did send you a receipt showing that you were only charged for a pedicure. You have mentioned chipping which we will be more than happy to repair. Please give our salon a call!

rude staff, poor nail quality, overcharging, and aggressive parking enforcement

Business reply on Google

Hi Cory, We appreciate your feedback, but it seems there might be some confusion regarding your review. After thorough investigation, we found that there was an incident involving a vehicle left in our parking lot for an extended period, which prompted us to have it towed. However, we want to clarify that the individual who left their car was not a customer of our trendy nail salon. As much as we empathize with any inconvenience this may have caused, we want to emphasize that our parking lot is designated for our valued customers to ensure easy access to our services. Regrettably, we had no choice but to have the vehicle removed to maintain the availability of parking spaces for our genuine customers. If you have any other concerns or questions related to our salon services, we would be more than happy to address them directly. Our aim is to provide exceptional experiences to all our customers, and we want to ensure that you, as well as everyone else, receive the best service possible.

Appointment cancelled on short notice due to inability to provide service

Business reply on Google

Good evening Stephanie, I am sorry to see this review. Your appointment was for an under the age of 12 manicure. We book this service for 30 minutes. In your notes you stated you wanted nail art added to the service. We called you to inform you that at this time we do not offer nail art for under 12 services. Your appointment was not cancelled, we were able to provide what was booked. You did not want the service based on not being able to provide nail art. You asked that we cancel your appointment.

poor nail quality and refusal to refund missed appointment fee

Business reply on Google

Good afternoon Asli, We understand your frustration with your cancellation charge. We are not a walk in salon, and are dependent on appointments only. When booking appointments online clients are required to accept the terms before completing the booking. Below, are the terms which were accepted. Clients that fail to provide a 24 hour notice of cancellation will be charged 50% of the amount of their appointment. Clients that no show their appointment will be charged 100% of the amount of their appointment. Due to scheduling, appointments may be cancelled if client is more than 10 minutes late and subject to a no-show charge for the service. We appreciate your feedback.

Nail technician performed poor quality, crooked work for a high price.

Hi Patricia, our apologies that you have had a bad salon experience. Please check that your service was completed at City Nail in downtown Indianapolis. We do not have you in our booking system. If you were here please give us a call so that we can obtain additional information. If it was another salon, I ask kindly that you remove and repost for the correct salon. 317-426-3890 Thank you!

Staff was rude and charged a fee for a missed appointment.

Business reply on Google

Hello Ashton, We just checked our client portal and you have never visted our salon. I am sorry to hear about your experience, but this review was written for the wrong salon. I hope in the future you give City Nail Bar a visit.

Business cancelled wedding appointment without notifying the customer

Business reply on Google

Good afternoon. I am sorry to see this review, I just spoke with your fiancรฉ and have been trying to work all of the appointments. I would be more than happy to discuss with you the current situation. I do want you to know that we did not cancel the appointments, and after adjusting our schedule shortly after speaking, we had the ability to accommodate the entire party. I did speak with your fiancรฉ to inform her and she was no longer interested. I sincerely apologize, we would be more than happy to do the services if youโ€™re unable to find another salon.
