The best! Everyone that works here is awesome at what they do and fun to chat with for the hour you’re with them. It’s the cleanest nail salon you’ve ever been to and absolutely adorable. If you’re lucky you’ll get to hangout with the shop dog who’s sometimes there during the week too. The subscription options and online booking make it super convenient to always have your nails done. Side note Laura is also amazing at brows.

This nail salon is by far the best nail salon I’ve ever been to. It is also the most hygienic nail salon you will ever find! I’ve had services with Gabby and Laura- both are amazing. My no chip manicures last 2 weeks, but somehow the take off isn’t damaging like past experiences I’ve had! I highly recommend this salon!

I've had probably close to 100 pedicures at dozens of salons, and this was by far the most I've ever paid for the worst service I've ever encountered. I can't speak to the manicures, but I absolutely do not recommend getting a pedicure here. I ended up paying $90 for a no-chip pedicure (including a 20% tip), which was not even the service I had made an appointment for. The quality of service combined with the demeanor of Nicole, the technician I worked with, has made me swear off giving this place a second chance despite the many positive reviews. My specific experience is as follows: I made an appointment weeks in advance with Nicole for a no-chip manicure with nail art. The day of my appointment I forgot my wallet at home and called to tell my technician that I would be running a few minutes late. Her response was so cold and unprofessional that it took me aback. I was 12 minutes late to my appointment and was told that because of this I might not be able to get the nail art I had booked for, despite the fact that my technician had no other appointments after me. I am aware that being late is not ideal, but the judgmental and frankly rude way it was addressed by Nicole was astounding. After explaining that I basically just wanted a French manicure with a few extra details, Nicole agreed. I asked if it would be possible to add nail extensions, to which I was told Sacred Scarab does not offer that service. I stated that this was not made clear to me while booking, and Nicole responded "It's actually all over our website." This turned out not to be the case, as I explain later. I was offered and accepted a pedicure instead, which I did appreciate. The experience of the pedicure service itself was mediocre. The salon is extremely clean and well decorated. However, the website indicates that they are still following COVID protocols and explicitly states that staff will be masked. Though masks were offered, I was the only one in the salon using one. The chairs are comfortable, but not massage chairs. The foot soaking basins they offer are just tubs with warm water that cooled quickly. No jets or even soaking salts are employed and they do not refill the tubs with warm water once the soak gets cold. The exfoliation, foot scrubs, and massage were very, very brief and not particularly thorough. During the massage, my technician got oil on my jeans which I have not yet been able to get out. Nicole was very careful when it came to making sure the polish didn't get onto my cuticles, which I greatly appreciated, but the application of the polish itself was uneven and could have used another coat. While receiving the pedicure I took some time to browse the Sacred Scarab website to see where I had missed the note regarding nail extensions. Nowhere on the site is this mentioned despite what my technician said. The salon's instagram bio states they are a "natural nail salon" but does not indicate that this refers to not doing extensions rather than using a natural polish. I finally found the information in the "About" section of the salon's Facebook page, which also says they do not remove dip or acrylic nails. Literally nowhere else is this stated at the time of my writing this review. I let my nail technician know that this was the case and her response was "Oh." $90 later all I'm left with are a pedicure that's fine at best and mildly exfoliated heels.
