Harbor Nails Spa Baltimore

"I really liked my dip design that I had on, but my nails were growing out so I just wanted a fill which most salons won’t do. They got my in right away on a Sunday, allowed me to just do a fill in. My nail tech took her time and reshaped and filed down my nails so they looked good as new. They have a lot of dip powder color options. I’ll be back for my next dip appointment."

"Wouldn’t really recommend. They were super sweet but the quality was just not there. My gel mani was pretty subpar. The tech wasn’t very detailed. My cuticles were just buffed and cut and soaked in cold water. It wasn’t really a manicure to the level that I’m used to. The paint was flooded in my cuticle area and there was gel on my skin. The paint started peeling after just a few days."

"I went to this place in a pinch, I explain to the lady at the front desk that I wanted a fresh set, she looked at my nails, and said I just needed a fill-in. Fine, I went along with what she said. She starts buffing off the top product as is usually done for a fill-in and I mentioned to her that my natural nail is lifting from the UV extension and I ask her if she can fix that. She proceeds to use a different nail grinding bit to remove my natural nail from underneath burning the tips of my finger in the process, and she didn’t even do a good job removing all my natural nail from underneath. She tries to use regular acrylic when I have mentioned multiple times that I wanted a UV gel both over the phone when I booked and when I had arrived. “Oh yeah” she says. The basket of UV gel product she pulls out in all honesty, looked rather cheap, like products, I could just buy from Walmart or off of Amazon but what do I know. On top of which she barely used any product the tips of my nails were super thin while the base of my nails were a rather normal thickness (all the product was left at the base of my nail) I emphasized that I feel like the nails are too thin “no”. Turn off the next morning I chipped the tip of my right, middle finger nail.. with all of us. She also over, filed my extensions, creating a curved under arch when I always receive a flat under arch. Listen, I don’t know much about nails, but I do know when my nail is over filed it was three out of my 10 little fingers that were over filed. I provided an example Top picture is normal. Bottom picture is over filed. Also, another concern is she had my hands under the UV light for what felt like almost 10 minutes for each hand, I may as well have gone to a tanning salon to harden my nails. In the end, I asked her multiple times to re-buff nails that were left, super jagged, like snagging on my pants before I even left the salon. This woman wasn’t mean or rude, but what’s the point of formalities if you’re gonna give me such poor product and tell me I’m wrong.?"

"DO NOT GO HERE! If you do, do not allow the man that works there to touch you at all. He cut up my feet so bad that I currently have at least 4 bandaids on them with antibacterial ointment on them to allow me to walk with minimal pain. I was literally LIMPING bc the cuts hurt so bad where he sliced off or sanded my skin to bleeding. I also got a “professional” gel manicure… yeah right. I don’t think he has a license, honestly. I’ve NEVER in all my life had this much paint all over my fingers. This was THE WORST nail painting I’ve ever had. A child would’ve done better. I know I can. He coughed the WHOLE time without covering his mouth. He used his sharp nails to dig into my cuticles to “remove” paint he messed up on. He had acetone with a brush in it just sitting there, but used his own nails instead. Even digging them into the chopped up cuticles on my toes. I wanted to cry/scream/run. When it was “done”, I was so upset I just wanted to leave. I didn’t even have anything left to ask them to fix it. I was so defeated. Here are photos of my mani right after I got into my car to drive home. This place sucks."

"The place lacks cleanliness and good hygiene practices (e.g., the callus removing tool was placed on the ground and then used again on my feet). The acetone-soaked cotton balls were left for too long on my nails causing them to start to burn above the cuticles. The pedicure turned out okay, but there are several small flaws on my nails."
