A One Nails

This is my FAVORITE nail spot ever! My no chip lasts 3 weeks. Yep. 3 weeks! Henry and Sue are amazing! Definitely need to go and try them out! This has been my spot for 2 years and will continue to be. Keep up the great work!

I love this place. It’s clean, efficient, and I can relax. I have been going for manis, pedis, and now gel overlays for over 6 months. More polish colors could be added to the inventory, but I prefer good service over good inventory. The owner and his team are very accommodating and they care about their business.

The worst attitude! Obviously dose not want to be there. Dose not clean materials for next use. Not gentle when cutting the cuticles. When you say ouch the man doing my nails said, «I didn’t hurt you.» At that point I got up and left. BY FAR THE WORST MANICURE EVER!!!

Love coming here for pedicures! I’ve had a few different techs do my pedicures they all do a good job but Sue is my favorite! She is a little aggressive but she does a great job! In the summer when my feet are all cracked I leave here with the softest prettiest looking feet ever! All pedicures come with a salt scrub before the oil massage! Yes! That means more time massaging my legs… my favorite part!
The only problem is their nail polish selection is less than desirable. If your getting pink or red your safe but any other fun colors are few and far between.
If you need a good pedicure go here! For a couple more bucks you can even upgrade to one of there many specialty «spa pedicures» they look great I haven’t tried one yet though!

I really enjoy coming to a1 nails! They spend a lot of time on your nails! I love getting the pedicures because they really take the time to massage your legs and paint your nails. They are all very friendly. The only thing they need to add is more nail polish colors. They don’t have the largest selection. But overall I enjoy coming here for my manicure and pedicures !!

Love coming here to get pampered. Best mani-​pedi in the area! Thanks Nikki!

WORST pedi ever, I do a better job myself! I was bruised with the massage burnt with the HOTT stone, the excess nail polish on my skin was never cleaned off nor do I think a top coat was applied. It was rushed not at all relaxing. I was with 2 of my cousins and one was scratched with the foot scrapper on her ankle and the other one asked her woman to not be so rough about 7 times. They over flowed the tubs knocked things over. just very rushed and not the way a personal service should be! NOT WORTH THE MONEY!

I’ve been in this nail salon before. Pretty typical for a no name, inexpensive joint. It’s the place I run into when I don’t have time for my usual place. Stopped in today and had such a negative experience I felt a need to post about it. It was crowded. The impression I got was my manicurist was told to skip a break to do my nails. She was so incredibly rude I will never go back. This is a $ 13 manicure. I’m not expecting the lap of luxury but she was downright ignorant. I had picked polish but asked her if there was a more sheer version of the color. She just told me to go pick something else if I didn’t like it. She pulled on my arm repeatedly to position my hand, I mean literally pulled my arm. Never again.

I was once a weekly regular at this place; it was brand new, every pedi used a fragrant scrub (which meant a double massage! really!) massage chairs were so good that the staff would sit in them when not working, and everyone was friendly.
Then something happened. The services became rushed, they started selling semi-​wacky things like colored hair feathers and jewelry, and the mood of both staff and patrons went from placid to irritated.
I still go back once in awhile, probably because I tend to get delusional, and expect the over-​achieving A-​1 Nails of days gone by. Each time I have been disappointed for one reason or another.
But you know I’ll get nostalgic and go again next time I’m cognitively impaired. But will have greatly reduced expectations.

This is a typical nail salon in my opinion. The prices are average, and the service is what I would expect from a strip mall nail salon.
I am giving this place 5 stars though, because of one woman who works there. Su is amazing. I ONLY let her do my nails. She goes above and beyond to fit me into her schedule and she she does the most beautiful nails ever! I ALWAYS get compliments on my nails. She not only does a wonderful job with nails, (including no chip) she does a great wax job too! My eyebrows always look great when I leave! Its easy to get in, easy to make an appointment and I LOVE SU!!! I would have her do my nails forever! That being said, if she ever left, I’d leave to and follow her wherever she went. ha-​ha
If you want a phenomenal mani/​pedi, walk in, ask for Su… She is so worth the short wait you might have!
FYI You cannot add tip on credit cards so make sure you have CASH to tip!

I had a good first experience and am going back.

Had a gift card for this nail place. The technician was not very pleasant and did not smile. Not even a smile after a five dollar tip on a 21 dollar bill. Wow! Very uncomfortable sitting in upright chairs for my eyebrow wax, and the wax was inferior. My manicure, however, has resulted in five days of flawless, non chipping pink nails! Pretty cool!
Will not go back.

Oh my god! Don’t go here. Example: My last (and literally last) trip to A1 Nails, I got a pedi and a fill in.
So the chick that gave me a pedi was really quiet, semmed like she didn’t want to be there. I decided she probably doesn’t speak English well. The pedi experience was just ok.
I then got a fill in by another employee, and the experience was just ok as well. He had a little bit more life in his face than the pedi lady.
I tried a new shatter color combo and after he was all done w/​painting my nails, he noticed I was staring at them with an unhappy look on face. I wasn’t crazy about the color combo at first glance, but I decided that the color was fine. He asked if I liked it and wanted to change it. I said it was fine.
THEN! The employee who did my pedi told me to sit the pedi chair. I was a little confused, but I figured my pedi expeirnece wasn’t quite over. Maybe she wa going to put a clear coating on.
I sat down and she takes nail polish remover (I didn’t know what it was at first because it was in a concealed bottle) and almost as if she was pissed off, she starts rubbing my big toe nail on my right foot with the remover.
I was startled, and I told her to stop! WTF?! She looks over at another employee and she says she thought that employee told her I wanted the color re done. He kinda laughed and gave her a look like, what are you talking about?
NEVER did the woman ever ask ME what I wanted. I was perfectly fine with my pedi color! I liked it. I never ever ever said I didn’t like it! It was my finger nails color I was indifferent about.
She never apologized. She had to talk to me a little bit after that. She spoke English PERFECTLY FINE. This B! tch just didn’t want to talk to me while I got my pedi done. Then she paints my big toe and didn’t let the main color dry until she painted crackle on, so now my big toe dried sideways, unlike the others.
They didn’t offer any discount. They never apologized. I walked out of there not giving a tip. I had a horrible feeling in me as I left that place.
These people don’t care about you. Good luck there!

Henry is great
comfy chairs
2 TVs
always mobbed so it must be good!

Watch out for poisoning if you have a no chip manicure removed at this place. I have gone to this place at least a dozen times and never had a problem. I recently had my second no chip manicure and the first one was removed at another salon by placing the solvent on each nail and wrapping the nail in aluminum foil. I did not have a reaction the first time I removed the no chip manicure. A1 Nails decided to give me a large open bowl of solvent to soak both hands in my lap while I got a pedicure. I was fine during the pedicure but after inhaling the potent fumes for about 25 minutes I went to have my manicure and started sweating, feeling faint, dizzy, disoriented and nauseated. I could not even go wash my hands. I finally made it to the bathroom and started feeling better as soon as I got away from the fumes. I relaized I had a reaction to the toxic fumes from the solvent because I felt fine when I got home and felt fine before I entered the place. I even called a doctor to discuss the matter with her. I am certain there is a reason the other salon wrapped each nail individually. I felt compelled to share my story to avoid the same incident for anyone else. I could not even complete my manicure and left. Of course they charged me FULL price. Incidentally, the person doing my nails had allergies and kept sneezing, coughing and hacking the whole time she was doing my nails. She also wore a mask but the whole experience was certainly not very relaxing.
They lost my business forever.

Went here for a pedi and fill in of my overlay
Kim took care of me first with the pedi she was so rough kept cutting me and told her a few times that hurts but simply ignored me, then she kept going over my skin and cutting the skin around my nails ! again told her
that hurts please be careful and she didn’t listen, now have sore fingers and have been getting my nails done for years and have never such a experience as this one, also noticed they do not clean the pedi tubs well after each customer only have seen them wipe it out with a towel!!! eek noticed after had mine… eek
Most workers dont speak engilish, would stay away if were you!!!

My mom is always looking for the next best thing; she’s one of those love ‘em and leave ‘em types. Lucky for my dad it’s only with respect to nail salons.
A few weeks ago my mom was gushing about her new mistress, A1 Nails, and offered introduce me with a mani/​pedi on her. I know she was secretly bribing me into coming out for a visit, but I’m not one to turn down free pampering.
In addition to the quality of their work, what sold my mom on A1 was three things:
1) On her first visit she brought a coupon, the manager let her keep it so she could reuse it until it expired.
2) During her first mani/​pedi there someone side swiped her car. The staff saw the incident and helped her track down the driver who had ducked into a nearby store.
3) They are super clean.
We wandered into the salon early on a Monday so it was pretty empty and we were taken immediately. The woman who did my mani/​pedi did an amazing job, it’s been a week and I don’t have a single chip on my toenails. I’ve raised the white flag as far as my fingernails are concerned; they have officially won the battle of the nail polish. Rather than getting mad because all polish starts peeling off within 6 hours I have my nails buffed instead — they are nice and shiny.
It may have been because it was Monday morning, but the place was pretty empty; they can accommodate 10 people at the nail and pedi stations. There is a nice big plasma TV facing the chairs so you can relax and watch TV while your feet get done. They also have a little private area for waxing; an eyebrow wax is only $ 8!
My only complaint is that I had some major communication issues with the woman doing my nails. Between the mask covering her mouth and her heavy accent I couldn’t understand most of what she said. I felt like a fool nodding yes to questions that don’t require yes or no answers such as «would you prefer your nails rounded or square?» In the end we were able to figure out a charade-​like system of hand gestures.
Bottom line: My mom has good taste, for $ 35 I got one great mani/​pedi; hopefully she keeps her new love around for a while.
