Poochiez Pawz Nail Studio

I ended up making an appointment with Robbie after finding her on Instagram. Since there is a cash only policy, I went in first and asked how much my nails would be so that I got the correct amount (I hardly carry cash on me). I was told it would be 45 total, not including my deposit of 20 bucks — which would be 25. Pulled out 60 (was getting my toes done as well). Everything was great, nails were done beautifully. She then said my total for her was 55. Well.OK. I assumed she made a mistake with the calculation and went on over to get my toes done. Once i was all finished. i paid the lady for my toes 30 bucks (25 plus tip) then proceeded to pay Robbie the same. She said again it was 55. I said I did not take out enough to cover that amount — as i was initially told my nails were 45. I have no idea where the additonal 10 came from all of a sudden. Please note that I did not deviate from the original design i asked for in any way. I then told her I could pay the difference by credit card if possible. She told me she is not running my card for just 5 dollars (she didn’t realize the extra 5 was a tip). LOL ok! Of course after this exchange, that nice chipper demeanor was out the window. I was beyond upset and ended up leaving with wet nails. I am not cheap and I pay for all my services with no problem, however, this little stunt left me confused. Love to support my black owned salons, but I will not be back.
If you are looking for an upscale spa like experience, this is not the place. If you want bangin designs and don’t care about the service or surroundings, then this is your spot.

My nail tech is Pinky and she is great. For one I am conservative when it comes to nails since I work in corporate America and she makes sure my nails are picture perfect. She can do the wild stuff too like 3d, stones, foil (yes foil), round shapes, square, almond and coffin. I know coffin sounds morbid but they work great if you type a lot. She is by appointment only and what I like is that she is usually finishing up another customer when I arrive and the longest I have ever had to wait was 10 minutes and then she gets me in and out. Everyone in the salon does nails well so you won’t go wrong with anyone!

Poochie is da best, love her and love my nails! You won’t be disappointed there’s nothing she cannot do.

I was referred to Poochiez Pawz by my loctician when I noticed her nail art and was intrigued. Good thing it’s located in the same area where I work. Second it’s a small local business. Robbie was my nail technician and did a great job with my gel manicure. She took her time and was very detailed. The biggest selling point for me to check this place out were the nail designs. There were so many designs I couldn’t decide what I wanted to be done. I looked through here nail design pictures on her Instagram and picked two painted designs, one with rhinestones. Love my nails. There’s only two downsides, one it’s appointment only and the other there is a $ 20 deposit required. I don’t mind because I understand why the $ 20 deposit is required to secure the appointment so no complaints. I will be back.

I finally broke down and got the matte nails.
I’m hooked.
I will probably matte every nail job for the rest of the year.

I love this place I drive from ellenwood to get my nails done and I’m never disappointed. My nail tech is Pinky! I love the atmosphere and they always make me laugh. Friendly and professional staff!
