Now under new management. Charged me 25 for a fill a three dollar upcharge to cut them down? Upcharge for top coat. Nail dryers, 3 out 4 didn't work! No massage. My nails are all shapes and sizes and sharp. Took 2+ hours for a fill!! Looks like a student did it. So many quality nail salons in the area. They will need to step it up to be successful here. Won't go back.

Rating one star because can not leave a minus 1. This place used to be great but i guess now they are under new ownership. It is close to my house so was really convenient to me just stop by whenever. Never had any problem going without appointment until last week when i went there and was standing for 5 min until someone asked if i had an appointment when i said no they starting talking with each other on their language until i interruped and asked what should i do, if i should wait or if should i go, until i decided to just go back home since they really did seem to care very much about me standing there trying to figure out if i was gonna have my nails done or not. Really rude people, i can drive 50 miles from now on to get my nails done but i am never going back there.

I stated going to Allure from a recommendation by a close friend. It's so hard to find shops with skilled technicians that know how to work with acrylic. Most today are all about gels and the new powder dip. I found the place to be immaculate and the owner, Vanessa, extremely accommodating. I explained to her that I have zero patience for shops that rush people who take the time and make appointments due to walk-ins. She assured me they do not engage in that and will ask a walk-in to come back if someone's not free verses rushing their current customer. It's been 4 months and so far this has been honored. Vanessa's freehand artwork is amazing. Please see the picture of the Pat's symbol she drew for the Superbowl for me. You pick a picture from her phone and she can duplicate it to the letter. Her attention to detail with shaping the nails is fantastic, and her new husband, Jack who also works there, likes to pride himself as being responsible for her talent. I've seen his work too and he's equally talented. Their spa pedicures are relaxing and you get a wonderful calf and foot message too. Absolutely love this shop and I've tried many in the Melrose, Wakefield, Saugus, and Lynn area. None came close to Vanessa's consistency and kindness.

This place was not the best for sure. The reason why I rated one star is the service. It was awful. The woman who served my mother was so rude. When my mother asked her to do her nails a specific way the nail technician would look the other way and completely ignore what she said... And the prices aren't listed so they charge whatever they want. They charged my mom and I $20 for a fill, and then charged the woman next to us $18. She didn't ask if it was okay to take a few nails off, and of course she just did it and charged her for it. I will never go back here even if you paid me to. The place is dirty as hell as well. Go somewhere else! Somewhere that values potential new customers!!
