CINDY'S NAIL & SPA REVIEWS

I’ve been living in New Orleans for the past 2 years and I’ve been going to Cindy’s for a year now and I’m finally writing a review. Out of all the nail salons I’ve been to in NOLA, I can truly say I’ve found a nail salon I can truly trust. I used to spend over $120 on my nails but I spend half of that at Cindy’s. Kevin is my nail tech when it comes to my dips, gels, acrylic, designs n so on. For my pedicure: Tiffany, Ben, and Anna are all fabulous. Tiffany does both hands and feet and she’s my little sister’s favorite person to ask for, we love her, she’s very patient and honest. Kevin is very kind and great person to chat with while he’s doing my nails, n I love the fact that he informs me of new arrivals and techniques to see if I’ll be interested in trying them. Cindy the owner is such a beautiful lovely person, she even did my nails one time when there was a lot of customers and Kevin was occupied … let me tell you she’s a PRO! She’s so fast but at the same time careful when handling nails.

I always have a great experience at Cindy’s. The nail technicians are very skilled and professional. I usually get a gel manicure and they work very quickly, so the manicure is usually completed within an hour. The prices are amazing. I have seen nowhere else where a quality gel manicure is $25. I love Cindy’s! … More.

This place is amazing! super friendly staff. honestly my favorite set of nails i've ever had done.

NAIL BAR NOLA REVIEWS

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience here. The salon is beautifully designed and impeccably clean, with a unique bar top setup that adds to its charm. The nail technician and greeter were both friendly and humorous, making the visit even more enjoyable. What stood out most was that despite being located in upscale Canal Place, their prices remain very reasonable. The atmosphere was further enhanced by great music, making it a truly satisfying visit.

Such a great experience at Nail Bar Nola! It was so beautiful and relaxing being there. One thing I absolutely loved was that the salon was not packed with people which created an experience that was relaxing so I was able to be truly pampered. They offered water and had great music playing! I had a nail tech, Tweedy Bird, and she was an absolute doll baby! 10/10, I highly Reccomend.

Aesthetically, pleasing nail salon that is extremely big on hygiene. Which is very well welcomed. Relaxing, low tones. Polite and attentive nail technicians and hostess. Walkins are welcomed however, I highly suggest making an appointment. I was fortunate to get an appointment within 30 minutes of my arrival as a walk-in. They were very accommodating.

SOUTHERN SWINGS NAIL BAR REVIEWS

Southern Swing is the best for quality, service, and experience. There is no place like it--nails on point, and the thoughtfulness, thoroughness, and kindness of everyone there truly makes the experience next level. Don't hesitate-- this is your new spot!! Ms. Mary has been my go to for over five years and I wouldn't know what to do without Amanda and D Thank you Southern Swings for saving me monthly.

I whole heartedly recommend Southern Swings. I am very particular about my nails, and love to get nail art. No matter what I throw at them, they have an artist who can accomplish my request. The owner is SO friendly and makes sure you have a lovely experience every time you go in. His talented nail artists and techs are incredibly friendly as well. Amazing prices for the level of service you get.

I had an amazing experience at Southern Swings Nail & Wine Bar. The owner, Brandi has created more than just a nail salon, it is a nail experience. Her place is so cute and the cleanest salon I have ever been in. My nail artist, Ashley did such an amazing job on my Mani Pedi, her attention to detail was impeccable. I highly recommend this place & Ashley.
