Reviews of Canterbury Nails

Stephanie Downing

I have been going to Canterbury for years and really recommend them. The service is great and the salon is really clean. Danny has that place running like a well oiled machine and he always remembers my name, even when I’m not coming as frequently. I typically get gel pedicures and SNS manicures (total about $121) and leave happy. You might pay a bit of a premium here compared to some other salons, but I don’t mind considering the quality. I don’t get designs, so I can’t speak to how good they are at that. I recommend Van for anything, especially SNS manicures. She is fantastic.

First off, I have been trying to find an amazing nail tech that kills my favorite Nail shape (Almond). When I say this place is the best! I definite recommend. Everyone there does an amazing job. Big shout to Ms Tammy, love her she is amazing, and the ones responsible for doing my nails this visit 🔥♥️ My nails place Now! …

Emma Fasking

I’ve been coming to this salon for almost ten years now. Danny is the manager and runs a tight ship; from making sure everything is clean and updated, to happy technicians, happy clients, and services are done properly and with the best tools. They off everything under the moon when it comes to manicures and pedicures, and truthfully it’d be a sin to go anywhere else. I also always get my facial waxing done here and the ladies who do it are always on point. You’d be hard pressed to find such a well-oiled and friendly atmosphere in the birmingham area. I’m including my most recent SNS with gel overlay just so y’all know that these technicians are second to none! (Vu did my most recent set, AND KILLED IT!!)

CH Zou

Very relaxing atmosphere and so many colors to choose from! Vu did a great job on my nails, I felt like he really listened to me and was so attentive to details that I was amazed by the result. I’m usually pretty picky about my nails but so glad I gave Canterbury Nails a try.

Melanie Shedlarski

Danny and his team are amazing!! We did an event here, and it was fantastic with their help! Danny helped coordinate and plan, he was very accommodating. His team was super sweet and all of the guests had a great time! Also, my nails look great! We had such a good experience with them and would do another event here!

Anna Nash

I literally have never been disappointed with my services here! They are efficient and things feel very clean….2 things that mean a lot in a nail salon. (And friendly too!)

Katherin Beade

Highly recommend! The staff is very nice and did a great job on my hands and feet.

Addison Gilmer

I have been getting my nails done at Canterbury for a little over a year now and I absolutely love this place. From the moment you walk in the door until the second you are leaving it is just a great experience. The manager will always greet you by your name and even remember details about you and your favorite color schemes. If you ever have trouble or hesitation about a color someone is quick to help you decide. I always schedule an appointment with Annie (she is the very best) however if she isn’t available I am always happy with whoever! I love the fact that they listen to you at Canterbury and do not try to talk you into something you are not asking for. I am not trying to set the bar so high but this place is amazing and you have to try it!

Heather Little

Jodi did AMAZING! I went here December 4th and I’m just now needing to go back. She did exactly what I asked, and communicated with me of what exactly I need to ask for for future appointments. THEN to top it off, my fiancé proposed to me the same night and my nails were perfect ♥️

Eva Almeshal

I’ve been looking for my go-to nail salon in Birmingham for a while now. I finally found it! Tammy is wonderful and the place is extremely clean, the staff is super friendly and the quality of work is great.

Lauren Vaughan

I’ve been going to Canterbury for about 5 years now and have never once had a bad experience! They always help you right away and there’a hardly ever a wait. Every person I’ve had has done an amazing job. I went the other day before my engagement photo shoot and just had to share. Thank you!

Christi Brewer

I had a great experience today at Canterbury Nails. It was Sunday, which is walk-ins only, but I was immediately sat at a pedicure station. I was getting a pedi & a gel mani, and they asked if I was ok with them doing them both at the same time. I was actually in a hurry today, so that worked out very well for me. Both of the ladies who were working on my nails were very friendly & did a great job. Very pleased!

Pamela Ritter

Was in town for 1 night called and owner said to come by he would get me in. Picked my color and nails were done beautifully

Haley Herfurth

Canterbury Nails is my favorite place to get my nails done - I do gel manis. I do recommend making an appointment because they are always pretty busy. They always get you in and out quickly and the finished product is always great. For COVID safety, they are still asking customers to wear masks (a sign on the door says "masks preferred") which I think is really great, and they have plexiglass shielding up on the tabletops to separate the tech and customer. I feel safe there.

Abby Carver

Best place to get nails done in Birmingham! I almost never have to wait when I walk in even when they’re busy. Easy to make appointments, always clean, and great quality! I recommend seeing Vu! After moving to another city, I still make a point to get my nails done here every time I’m in town for work.

Dee Q

Canterbury nails is awesome!! Andy the manager is great with customer service. I appreciate how he takes time throughout your service to come by and check on you addressing you by name etc... Wendy does my nails. She pays attention to detail and make sure my pedicure is "the bomb". Honestly, my pedicures last longer now which I am grateful for. I love that she is unique and open to freestyle designs that she will do or have Tommy work on for me. I will come back again (as I always do) and I recommend you try this nail spa!

Michaele Travis

I love my visits to Canterbury Nails! The new management is wonderful! Andy is making quite a difference in the experience that the clients have while visiting the salon. You are warmly greeted by every employee and are made to feel welcome.The attentiveness that you receive insures a relaxing and enjoyable experience. The services are excellent and are always consistent. I look forward to my next visit each time I walk out of their doors!!!

As with most nail salons, your experience totally depends on WHO works on your nails. Most of the female employees at Canterbury are great and the men too**with the exception of one man who is rough (often painful) to put it mildly. If in doubt, wait for one of the women!! My last gel manicure lasted 3 weeks without a single chip in polish. 👍💅🏼

Emily Bullock

Love this place! The salon is always clean and everyone there is wonderful. Danny has that place running like a well oiled machine. Ann is AMAZING. Her attention to detail is unmatched and she is so kind. Highly recommend!

Jessica Simmons

The salon is clean and management is so kind and accommodating. They are, however, extremely over priced to be simply average. Countless times I have tried giving this place a chance, yet I consistently walk out with a poor filing job and barely touched cuticles. With the quality I see, I could have done this myself and saved $45.

Alyanne Brantley

Update: I called the next morning and the staff was so quick to accommodate me. I went back and was greeted with a smile and apologies. They did a fabulous job second time around. The atmosphere was wonderful. The nail techs and front desk were very friendly. I am from out of town and went with a large group. Everyone’s nails, including my 3 little girls nails looked great. They had female nail techs. I had a guy who was super nice but did an awful job on my nails! He did 5 coats on 2 nails that the fan messed up. He didn’t take the brush to the cuticle or the sides of all my nails on the second and third coats. The worst job I’ve ever had done on my nails.

Canterbury Nails will always be my go-to! I’ve been coming here since high school. Truly a 5 star salon. My manicures and pedicures are always flawless. Everyone here is awesome! I could not recommend this place more!

Omotola A

Great job on my gel polish manicure/ spa pedicure. Appreciate the fact that the technician did not overbuff my nail bed or use an electronic buffer I had an issue with my color smudging on my pedicure and they were happy to correct without complaint No wait time on Saturday afternoon Glad they are open on Sundays as well Professional/ experienced staff Will definitely return

Leigh B.

VERY friendly and professional! I do the gel nails every few weeks(and get pedicures when splurging!). Everyone I have worked with has done a great job! As for the gel nails (referring to another review)...if you ask for their help and instructions on maintaining your nails- including PROPER removal of the gel- your nails should be fine! I have peeled mine off several times (when they have said DO NOT DO THAT!!!) and I tore my nails to pieces. But, since I go to them to remove the gel the RIGHT way, my nails are beautiful!! They did my wedding party, too! We had beautiful fingers and toes on the big day! Highly recommend! OH- and walk-ins are welcomed! I have never had to wait more than a few minutes- There are a lot of folks working there to help you! Be sure to check out their promotions...you will get additional discounts!

Macey Franklin

I have been coming to this salon for YEARS! Tony not only does a fabulous job with my nails, but he also has a sweet servants heart. He is always welcoming and excited to work! Danny, the salon manager, is easy to call and schedule with and always makes sure the salon is running on a good time schedule.

Charlotte Graves

I love Canterbury Nail Spa. I've been going there for the past few months and love the spa- like experience. Everyone is so nice. I always get quick, professional service...a gel manicure on my lunch hour. Today I was treated to an awesome shoulder massage while my nails were drying. I highly recommend the Canterbury Nail experience!

Audrey Rushing

Canterbury is by far my favorite place to get my nails done. Every time I visit, Danny and the staff always are so kind and helpful. The environment is very clean and my nails always look great!!

Diana Morlote

Even though I moved a little far from this salon, I prefer to drive here than go to other salons nearby. The wait is usually less than 15 mins regardless of how busy they are. Their nail polish selection is amazing. Their staff is fast and they do a great job.

Kathryn Bullock

Phenomenal. My nails have never looked this good!

Pamela Thessen

This is my go-to nail salon. The salon is clean and the owners are always helpful and receptive if there is an issue. The inside has been recently renovated and is so nice! I love the long massages that come with a pedicure, which I feel sets Canterbury Nails apart from other salons.

Lee Pete

I come here all the time, I get acrylic full set gel manicures and it's only been bad one time and I think the guy wasn't used to doing them. Even so it was still better than other places. Every other time my nails look amazing.

Alyson Trimble

Staff was very welcoming. Jason helped me pick out the best blue color for my pedi. The 'wake me when you done pedi was great. On accident he cut my cuticle on my big toe. He was very apologetic. I would go back heretic next time I am in town.

Sara Smith

Excellent! Since this salon has changed ownership, it is wonderful. I got a spa pedicure and a shellac manicure with Wendy and it was quite possibly the best I have ever received. The salon was clean, they offered me water or wine. They were friendly and very professional. Ask for Wendy!! She's fabulous. Since there are many bad reviews the salon was not crowded. Only two other customers. I was treated like a VIP.

Joycelyn Williams

I love the welcoming feeling when you walk into this place but the lady who did my nails was very rude to me. I spoke and tried to have a friendly conversation she act as if I wasn't talking to her. On top of that two of my nails needed repairing and she didn't fix it. When I went to go wash my hands the manager and the tech was sitting at my little station and she asked me to pay her before she even finish my nails. I felt some type of way by the manager sitting there with her as if I wasn't going to pay. Therefore , I told the lady thank u and she walked off and didn't look my way.

Tonya Coleman

I had the most amazing experience when I first came to Canterbury Nails, when I first called Andy was so personable and so very friendly, he made my appt and I was very pleased when I first stepped into the nail salon, very elegant friendly professional and family oriented environment. Andy assisted me right away with no wait time, the staff is very friendly. My nail tech whom I love so dearly for always providing me with top notch service (Kayla) she is marvelous, I am preparing to move to Pell City within a month and Canterbury Nails will always be my nail shop as long as Andy & Kayla stay there..I must admit The New Management and staff are absolutely amazing, but don't take my word for it come and experience it for yourself!

Kimberly Frost Barry

I can't speak high enough of this salon, they are a well oiled machine. Not only are the efficient, but they are also just lovely to do business with. I am glad to spend my money there, I get what I want every time (Friendly, timely, cleanly service). They made my friend(& her Mother and Sister) feel very special the day before her wedding and I am very grateful for that. Thank you again!!

Arti Mistry

Great place! I was in town for the weekend and they were able to get me in in 15 mins. Got my dip nails done and they looked amazing after the janky dip job I had done elsewhere. Ask for Steven he’s FANTASTIC

Lindsey Brooks

Danny and the entire staff at Canterbury Nails set the standard in professional and personal customer service. The staff is consistent in their technique and the salon is a relaxing environment. Thank you Danny and staff!

Jenny TwentyThree

They don't do any artistic nails. Nail tech seemed annoyed that I wanted more than one color on my nails. It was $178 for 2 full sets w/ gel polish and a pedicure.

Brandy Linton Odom

Canterbury Nail Spa is an excellent salon. The new management is excellent and Kristine did a fantastic job! The entire staff was very friendly and welcoming. I will be recommending to all my friends!

Sharon Thomas

Moving here from out of state, someone suggested that I try Cantebury Nails, and I have been using the services of Cantebury Salon for 6 months now. Very friendly staff and always clean. I personally use the services of Jenny for my pedicures and gel nails. The old saying, "You get what you pay for", is true with Canteburg because I been extremely happy with all services there that I have tried.

Mallory Mikal

Better than excellent!!! After a very busy and stressful week I realized at 6pm Saturday night my nails were awful and really wanted them done before a shower the next day. I thought surely it wouldn't be a possibility with it already being 6pm, but I gave Canterbury a call and Andy told me to come on in. WOW I was expecting something more like "No, we are almost closed." Then when I got there I was greeted by Andy, and introduced to Tommy (who did a wonderful job)! Not to mention everyone was in a great mood and seemed to be happy to be at work. I will definitely be going here from now on. GREAT EXPERIENCE! WONDERFUL STAFF!! I am in a better mood from just being around them! -Mallory

Lisa Crymes

My favorite go to nail salon in Birmingham. It’s beautiful interior & friendly staff. They always do a great job.

Brie Honey

I love Canterbury Nails. Very friendly staff and good work. The only bad experience I have had there was due to a rude customer who interrupted my manicure .. the staff handled the situation in a very professional manner.

Angela King

What a wonderful group of people with which I can relax and have fun. They have created a relaxing retreat that I look forward to every 2 weeks. Thanks to everyone at Canterbury Nails for always ensuring a GREAT experience!

Caren Seligman

A fabulous nail salon Everyone is so pleasant and all of them do a great job. Pedicures are wonderful, actually going there today for one. Just as good as a massage!

Ahmeena

Tony is absolutely fantastic. His attention to detail , excellent skill, and true customer service make this entire salon what it is: a 5 star salon. I'll travel for Tony , wait for Tony, and pay extra for Tony ! Can you tell who my favorite is yet ?

Darcy Dye

Team is always able to fit me in, great service regardless of who does my mani/pedi and I walk away feeling 100% better when I walk out of the salon.

Shaiema Joseph

New owners got rid of the rewards cards, I was upset about that but I still go because they are classy and they do a very good job. The new renovations are pretty, but the flashing lights in the ceiling are a distraction.

Mz. Peach

all of my experiences here have been amazing! Every time I have been here, the service have always exceeded my expectations! This is a salon that I would definitely recommend. The staff here are very professional and have great customer service!

Melanie Nguyen

First time experience here. LOVED this place! I was so relaxed and got exactly as I asked. My nails are on the all side and the nail tech suggested something better for me.
