Waste of money

Waste of money, don’t bother with this product or company. Horrible customer service. Received my order which cost $40 for cheap plastic nails. Tried them out and within 30 minutes one broke, just regular wear at home. Wasn’t even at work doing things. Customer service is now arguing with me via email and refusing to refund.

**Update after reading Talons excuses- here is what the “Talons team” replied to me with in their original email after I asked for a refund…”Regarding the broken nail, that’s definitely not something we want you to experience.” They never said ANYTHING about trimming the nail. They offered to send me a replacement nail, however, their return policy states “We accept returns and exchanges within 14 days of delivery. DON’T BELIEVE THEM, they lie and don’t stand behind their own policy! After several emails and getting nowhere, yes, I started posting reviews everywhere. They’ve now blocked me on social media (great company, huh), instead of taking care of a paying customer and offering the “100% customer satisfaction” as their company states. You can see by their response, they don’t truly care about their customers, just keeping the money. I will continue to post reviews everywhere everywhere I can, including under pseudo names that aren’t blocked.

FINAL UPDATE: Talons has refunded my full purchase. I appreciate that they finally stood behind their policy. Good training opportunity for their staff who initially responded.

Reply from Talons

Brandon purchased our Metallics - Dark Chrome Transformation to Black Gloss design, which as stated in the title (and description) transforms from the metallic to a Black Gloss. Unfortunately Brandon didn't seem to like this effect and decided to address it by blasting our social media and writing this review instead of working with our operations team on a resolution. Additionally, Talons are meant to be clipped to your natural nail length, and upon review of the pictures provided we see that Brandon did not cut the Talons to his natural nail, resulting in one of the Talons breaking, which we offered to replace.

Our operations team provides information and options to resolve issues to all customer inquiries. Even when we do not find a resolution to our customers satisfaction we stand by our guarantee and Brandon has been refunded.

Better than expected!

Saw these and was a little skeptical, but decided to try them out. I am very, very glad I did. The nails are legit. I ordered a replacement adhesive pack because I had a good feeling about them. I am so happy I did, because they really do last. It took a few tries for me to figure out which nail fit where, but it wasn't too hard for my first time using this nail style. The adhesive lasted a little longer than stated, stoked on that. I have applied them a few times and regularly use my hands throughout the day, and they have lasted well. A few nicks, but I was able to file them down to look good. The only problem I have now is waiting for them to restock so I can order more. Very satisfied and have recommended them to many others.

A+++++

I tried the Cobalt set from Talons and they were amazing! The quality and design are top-notch, durable, stylish, and comfortable to wear. Finally, a brand that understands men can have bold, clean nail designs too. Highly recommend!

Never going back to a salon!

I had just recently started going to a salon to get my nails styled. I really enjoyed how they looked but, don’t enjoy the price tag and how quickly they either chipped or grew out. I stumbled on Talons scrolling through Facebook and ordered my first pair, Dark Comedy. I will never go back to having my nails done at a salon again! Talons are affordable, stylish, and easy to apply and reapply! What’s perfect for me is although I love how my nails looked when painted, there were just some days I wished they weren’t. Talons gives me the ability to choose how long I want them styled, and also the ability to change my style for different occasions without dropping $100 buckets to have them done at a salon. I’ve ordered 5 more sets and love every single one. Every time I’m out with friends they comment how real they look and professionally done. I will never go back to a salon again.

Great product

Great product. I used cheap dollar store top coat on my metallic nails to prevent them from chipping. Highly reccomend. The talons team does a great job communicating attempting to solve any problems you may have.

I am beyond thrilled with my Talons! They are super easy to put on and customize with the clippers (which they provide) just like a real nail. I bought them for holiday parties this year, thinking it would be fun and convenient to remove after. I’ll be honest, I’m probably going leave these on for a few days because they are so fabulous! Definitely not my last purchase, I’m waiting for the metallics to arrive in the mail. :-)

A new era of style for men!

I got the Gilded Edge set from Talons – designer nails for men, and this was actually my first time ever wearing nails. I was nervous at first, but everyone loved them and the confidence boost was real.

I wore them to an MxPx concert, and they stayed on through the whole show and all my normal daily activities afterward. They’re stylish, easy to apply, remove, and reapply, and the kit comes with everything you need.

Don’t sleep on Talons! They’re absolutely worth it!

These nails are absolutely amazing

These nails are absolutely amazing. The designs are gorgeous, and the application is so easy. I wore my first set of nails for 8 days and I had to literally pry them off so that I could put on my new set. They would’ve easily stayed on much longer. I don’t change anything in my routine. I shower daily, play kickball (as the pitcher), wash my hands very frequently, type on a keyboard for work, and I’ve had zero issues with the nails staying on. I’ve gotten dozens of compliments on these nails, and I go out of my way to tell anyone who will listen about Talons. These are such an incredible option for people with larger nails, and the fact that they’re reusable is even better. I can’t wait to see what other designs they come out with.
Do yourself a favor and buy these nails!

Miss matched nail sizes, half don’t stick, had to go get other nail glue. Design on the nails came off. Not worth the money. Shit products

Hi Gauge,

Our founder and CEO had e-mailed you back after you had reached out to us, using intense derogatory language. We're including his response for your awareness as well as others.

---

This is Sasha, the founder and CEO of Talons. We just launched Sept 30th and I'm sure we have room for improvement. Feedback is what will help us get better, so I appreciate you sharing your experience and sharing the videos as well. I'm happy to engage in a dialogue with you to find a way to improve the bond of the adhesive so you can really experience Talons the way many other men have so far, should you be open to having a dialogue in a mutually respectful tone.

Getting a good bond is dependent on anatomy (flatter nails are easier to bond vs. more curved nails) and the prep steps taken can make a big difference.

Here are the industry leading prep and application steps:
1. Lightly buff your nail surface to remove shine.
2. Wash your hands or wipe nails with alcohol to remove dust and oils.
3. Dry completely before applying.
4. For the strongest hold, use glue (a small amount on its own or with the tabs). We recommend a brand called Curvlife.

Give that combo a try with the extra adhesives provided and they should stay solid. If not, shoot me a message or a give me a call and we'll figure this out. However, if it still doesn't work or if you are simply too frustrated and rather not try it again, I’ll give you a full refund.

For some additional context, Talons is the first designer nails for men company ever created and it took a year and an incredible amount of thoughtfulness for our team to create this product, following industry best practices along the way (this is the same adhesives used in leading womens brands). The mission and objective of doing this is to help enhance men's expression which we hope will lead to increased confidence and promote men's mental health. The last thing we would want to do is create such a frustrating experience. I do hope the steps above work and can re-invigorate your excitement. It would mean a lot to me if it did.

Nails were shaped for clubbed fingers

Nails were shaped for clubbed fingers. Tried to reach out to email support and the email address doesn’t work. The nails are cute and good quality, but the shapes are more likened to toenails. Wouldn’t recommend if you don’t have clubbed fingers.

Thanks for your feedback — we appreciate you giving Talons a try. Talons are shaped to fit a broad range of mens nail types, and we'll keep refining our fit based on feedback. It sounds like the curve on this set didn’t match your natural nail shape, which can happen. Our return policy covers these scenarios. Additionally, ensuring the correct end of Talons are applied to your cuticle will make a big difference in how well they feel and stay on.

Our support email is info@shoptalons.com. You can reach us anytime. Please note that Sasha also reached out to you directly.

Great quality and luxury feel

I was very impressed with the full experience. This was my first attempt at men's nails and I thought - why not? Let me try it! The product came in well packaged. The nails were really easy to apply - I was in a rush and did them in about ten minutes, including clipping them to size correctly. Definitely got attention when I was out - they looked terrific!! They were very easy to remove and did not break or damage my nail. There are additional adhesives so I'm looking forward to trying them again in the near future. Very happy with my set!
