The Angel Nails

"I got shellac nails and they lasted 2 days. Worst place ive ever been. Avoid!!! Update; I got splits in my fingers and I'm still in a lot of pain. 5 fingers have splits and all my nails are destroyed."

"Unhygienic and unfriendly. The staff did not even wipe down counters or instruments after each customer. The nail tech only grunts at people and cleans gel residue out from under your finger nails with his dirty long finger nail. Cheap looking gel overlay placed on nails, which is cracked in places. Reporting this place to the health and safety authority as it is a danger to people's health"

"If I could leave zero stars, I would. Avoid this business AT ALL COSTS. I left the place in tears due to the way I was treated here. Firstly, the woman who I dealt with for my nails was extremely rude and unprofessional. She was muttering under her breath whenever I told her what I wanted done with my nails and even took out her vape at one point and started smoking it. The other lady was watching YouTube videos beside us at full volume. I was rudely ushered away to pay, in a manner so rude that I told the woman she should not speak to customers in that way. I was then informed by the male staff member that the shop did not take card payments (which is advertised nowhere- not on any walls, in the windows, nothing). I did not have my card on me as I presumed I could tap and went to get cash back which I realised I couldn’t do without my card. I returned to the store and offered to return the following day with the payment. The male staff member then had the unprofessionalism to order me to buy him a bottle of Hennessy in Dunnes Stores instead of returning with a cash payment the following day. When I told him this was extremely unprofessional and I would not be purchasing him alcohol, he told me to buy him some “nice t-shirts” instead. Of course, I refused to do so. Next, he told me to leave some of my valuables in the shop until the following day, which I of course refused to do too. In response to this, he told me he would remove my nails and I could return to get them re-done the following day. I re-emphasised that this was completely unprofessional, and he began laughing and making comments about me to the customer whose nails he was painting. When I asked what was said he aggressively said “it’s my fault you didn’t bring your card?” To which I asked him why I was not told this before getting my nails done, and to show me where in the shop any notices about this were displayed. He did not have a response for this other than to repeat himself and blame me, urging me to “buy him something”, laughing in my face in front of a full shop of customers. I called my mother and she had to drive halfway across the city to bring cash for me to pay. I even had to inform a security guard that I would be waiting in my car until my mother came with money as I felt so intimidated by the attitude of this man. My mother went to pay as I felt so upset that I couldn’t return to the shop and she was in turn abused by this male member of staff who insisted he was nothing but kind and used “lovely words” when dealing with me and laughed in her face. Not to mention, my simple request to get nude Shellac nails was a failure and I left looking like I had just cut my nails short and painted them at home. In summary - avoid this business. Horrible staff, terrible service. Save yourself the heartache."

"I would award no stars if that was possible. Aggressive, confrontational and rude staff who vape while working. My daughter had her nails done here. She was not told that they accepted cash only until her nails were finished. She tried to get cash back in another shop but as she only had apple pay they could not help her. When she went back and explained this to the man in the nail shop and asked if she could return with the money he refused and told her to buy him a bottle of Hennessy Whiskey or "nice" tshirts. My daughter told him that was unprofessional so he told her he wanted to remove her nails there and then. This was in front of all the other customers. She became upset as he was being so aggressive and he started laughing at her. The other employees were also laughing at her. I had to get in the car and drive to her with money. When i went in he was smirking at me telling me he did not care as it was not his fault. I asked where in the shop does it advise customers that they are cash only he said no where and he could not explain why they chose until after to tell my daughter that. Throughout the experience he was rude, aggressive and confrontational. The worst experience of the provision of a service I have ever experienced. Also the finished product was terrible, they even painted her cuticles!"

"I’ve been to this place twice in the last 2 weeks getting my nails done.. the first time the girl doing the acrylic overlapped my cuticles and left it like that the second time it was the very same and made the acrylic too thin so my nails just looked stupid.. I asked for coffin shaped and got square and the girl painting my nails told me they didn’t have the colours I wanted which was just a basic pink and white French tip I then asked her what colours she had and she started muttering in her own language under her breath (no doubt calling me every name under the sun) everyone working there were very rude and they make you pay before (presuming people have walked out before unhappy and not paying) will not be back there again"
