April's Nails & Spa

I went in with a reference photo and politely asked for help matching a nail color. The lady technician refused to assist with color selection, and when I asked another staff member ( man wearing glasses, greasy hair, consumed by his videos on his phone) for help, he raised his voice yelling at me. He stomped around speaking his language throwing his hands. I felt Really uncomfortable and just remained quiet. Asking for help choosing a color is a normal part of a nail service, and being spoken to that way was disappointing, demeaning, and unprofessional. Just wanted to pick a brown color 3 days before Christmas that had a mocha vibe without burgundy undertone. It killed my joy filled vibe. I got a color that doesn’t depict what I visualized. Thank God it’s just polish and I can remove it

Called earlier today and made a 4 o’clock appointment I walked in and I said hello my name is such and such. I have a 4 o’clock appointment. She looked at me as if I was a nobody hesitated and said you have a 4 o’clock I said yes I called. I have a 4 o’clock appointment she looked at her book looked at the clock looked at me. I said if you don’t want to do it, I can go elsewhere. She said OK you can go I think because she realized I was a black woman and not a white woman. She did not want to service me. She turned me around with no problem. Hesitation so if you are of color, please do not go. I saw two white women getting serviced with no problem. When is this racism going to stop? If you made the mistake of thinking I asked for tomorrow at 4:00 you should have just said that. Instead, th

I cam here for the first time since I moved into the area. I am disappointed in the services I got here. I asked to get a full set with a design. The shape of the nails was fine. But multiple nails were cut and bleeding. I had to have them change the design 3 times because it looked childish and unprofessional. All of this for $60. The service not worth $60. I would not recommend this place to anyone. And unfortunately I will need to drive into cville ttodind better services.

I visited Aprils Nails on August 12th. I have very healthy nails, and the dip powder was so unevenly distributed that my nails cracked in half, causing blood. I am absolutely upset about the services provided. I recently moved to the area, and I would advise anyone to avoid this place. Instead, drive to Charlottesville to get your nails done. This place is not professional, and I will be reporting them to the health department as well!

Unfortunately this was my first and last time here. Provider was outside on phone smoking when I pulled up. Never saw them wash hands before starting. Instruments were not bagged or sterilized to what I could see as a healthcare provider. The entire facility needs a deep clean. Never had a welcome — “you here for nails? You have appointment at 10?” “Hello, welcome to April Nails. How may we help you today.” Would have been a bit more welcoming. I had a Spa pedicure and a regular manicure without polish. Not sure this is worth $70. Sorry, but I will not be returning.
