It was my only day off last week, and I thought i would treat myself to a pedicure.This is my experience having a pedicure at Sakari Nail Spa.....It was HIGHLY recommended by a resident where I work. I live 30 minutes from New Buffalo.FYI, I AM A LICENSED NAIL TECHNICIANI don't have time to do my own pedicures.?I'M WARNING U DON'T DO IT?I got home I took a good look at my feet...I paid a lot of money for what I thought was "the works" pedicure. Their only option was "spa pedicure," and I received a less than mediocre one!!I booked my appointment at 10 am when they first opened thinking I'd beat the crowd. It's a very small, modern, brightly lit salon on a main road.I always warn them of my bad calluses.I typically get the callus remover applied after soaking for a bit, then scrubbed with a pumice stone, and the leftovers "grated" off.When i booked my appointment online, i also had to prepay and have my visa card on file....which made me leery.The nail technician "A" was Caucasian (they all were to my surprise, which i liked for a change) she barely spoke to me and told me to soak my feet.. then quickly began filing my old polish off, cleaning my toes, trimmed my nails, hand filing (no drill) which is more work but nice because the drill can be painful, cause damage to the nail bed then she applied the dehydrator and primer. I told her it was burning bad, and she did nothing. when I asked "A" to please massage my legs with more pressure (im on my feet alot)...she just smirked at me and disregarded my request...so I let it go and was trying to relax and enjoy my time. before I knew it, she was polishing, and she was done. I paid $65 for that??? on top of a 20% tip, because I know how living on tips alone is difficult.That whole experience was a waste of my time/money/day off.I JUST WANTED A GOOD PEDICURE!I will not recommend them, nor will I be a returning customer.Service: Pedicure

Me and my mom went here and our nails came out great! I wish their customer service was a bit better, that is why I didn’t give 5 stars.Services: Manicure

Pros:-Same day appointment honored and nail techs took me and my sister back promptly-Lexie, my nail tech for a polish mani/pedi, was fantastic! She was attentive, kind, and expertly fixed a smudge I made while drying.Cons:-My sister did not have the same experience. Her tech took a phone call in the middle of the appointment while doing my sister's nails. Also, the tech's dip application was amateur as she didn't even shape the nail with a tool after dipping. The result was disappointing.Services: Manicure

I went in for a nail repair and thankfully they were able to get me in, grateful for that. However, I was charged $20 for THIS nail repair, not the same size, shape, or length. Very very disappointing for the price for 1 nail repair. They weren’t welcoming, nice, professional, or up front about the cost at all. Highly recommend taking your business somewhere else.Service: Acrylic nails

Being a retiree in this area, I just wanted a nice, welcoming, competent place to go for a pedicure! I don't need a Chicago style high end place, nor a resort style spa. I just wanted a clean, comfortable, easy-going atmosphere with people who know what they are doing, and are willing to discuss options! Finally, I've found it! My technician was Rene, but I've got the feeling everyone there is fine! Easy to drive to, fresh, airy, and so welcoming. Rene was attentive, careful, and did exactly what I needed. Super pleased - and I've tried a lot of places! Plus, it's right in New Buffalo, so good shopping, food, and the lake at the end of the road are there for you too! So, spoil yourself for a day - and be sure to make Sakari's a part of it. Great prices too.

We are new in the area, and after researching salons I chose Sakari Salon. I can't tell you how pleased and thrilled I am with my choice. Lisa is such a talented and service oriented owner. Lexi, my tech is so sweet and caring. I went there for full set, and pedicure. I also opted for eyelash and eyebrow service. I am so happy with results of my first visit and def will be " my salon". Just terrific all around experience.

Cute place and wanted to like but the staff felt unprofessional and acted as though my business was a nuisance to their day. I hoped my nails would be better than service but they were not, the person seemed not well trained and on the immature side. I’ve never had nail techs do such a poor job with shaping and painting my nails. Certainly makes me wonder. I’m happy I only had a pedicure.

Great place. One of the best pedicures I've ever had.

Worst pedi I've ever gotten. Staff was very blah. No personality and I got the impression they were annoyed (After they were late getting started) Chopped my nails and barely cleaned them up before slapping new gel polish on. Paint all over my cuticles and you could even see little bits of old polish that they didn't take the time to clean up. A friend came with me and she didn't even get close to the color she wanted (selection poor) and they clipped her cuticle so bad that she was bleeding all over. I'd call to have them fixed but I have zero faith that they could do better a second time around.

Very very disappointed in this establishment. We had previously booked appointments for a bride and five other guests. ( the appointment was booked months in advance) The ladies that were working in the nail salon were extremely unkind and rude. They could not get us in to fulfill their end of the appointment that was made. Needless to say, the bride was pretty devastated. The ladies in the salon were so rude that we canceled our appointments and left the establishment. We have a happy ending to the story! We found a salon down the road in Porter Indiana that went way beyond our expectations.

Great experience! Went in August- everyone was super mindful of COVID restrictions and I felt safe and relaxed. Got a great manicure!
