Best Nail Salons In Raleigh

“I came to 5T Beauty Academy for a gel manicure, pedicure, and eyebrow wax. Although the wait was longer than expected, the service more than made up for it. Katy did an excellent job on my gel manicure, and Tanya gave me a wonderful pedicure. Both were professional, attentive, and friendly .

“One of the only salons I found that does “jelly” nails. I wanted mine more natural (only one coat a little less shiny) and I was given exactly that. OMG and the CUTICLE care!!! So much attention was given so my nails could looks healthy and natural.

I also got a pedicure… but yeah im not posting my toes, but trust, it was done beautifully! I really like how much care they give to the actual “cutting” and shaping process, truly rare.

Also, unlike other places they didn’t make me “sign in” or register, my god it was so refreshing. The place is clean, beautiful and warm… practically fell asleep, I was so comfortable.“

“Just wanted to start by saying everyone at this salon is extremely kind, patient, and helpful. From initial phone call, in the chair and out the door everything was 10/10. Meghan is extremely knowledgeable and talented. I appreciate how thorough she is in explaining her approach and thoughts. I came for Brazilian blowout, gloss and cut. She’s great at understanding your vision and customizing everything to you. I can’t wait to book with her again!! I briefly met the owner and he was so kind too. Love it here already!“
