Top Reviews about 16 Nail Salons in Tallahassee, FL (Part 2)

Jess Hodge Perfect place to get nails done. Very fast, organized, and phenomenal work. Atmosphere is quiet and relaxing. They use tub liners for pedis and the shop is small but very clean.

Judy Moats I am in love!!! Tina does a wonderful job on my nails!!! She’s the first manicurist I’ve ever gone to that I feel comfortable leaving the final result in her hands. Chris does an amazing job for pedicures. There has only been a couple of times Tina nor Chris were available and I’ve still received excellent service. The shop is extremely clean and the atmosphere calming. Thank you for amazing experiences! HIGHLY recommend!!

Karla Pleas Well, Tina left Apalachee Pwy at the Nail Bar and moved on. But I loved her service so much, I followed. They have a new beautiful place. So relaxing with the same great service.

Erin Hill Nail inspo is the best nail salon in town! Everyone is so friendly and does an amazing job! I’ve been going since they opened and won’t go anywhere else! They are meticulous and make sure your nails look PERFECT before you leave! Ye, Tina and Diana always do such a good job! My gel polish lasts a month!

Brittany Sigler I had a wonderful experience yesterday at this location. I was from out of town and needed a fill in. My nail tech was Brandon and he was amazing. You could tell he really cared about his job and he was very communicative to make sure I got what I wanted as far as the color and shape of the nails. I would highly recommend this nail salon and I will be back if in the area again!

Liz Harrison I just had one of the best pedicures ever from Monica. She was detailed and polite and everything looks wonderful. I paid for the extra long massage and it was worth every penny. Will be back.

Haylie Singletary If i could give them 0 stars i would they burnt every finger on my mom she was very rough and does not need to be a nail tech STAY AWAY FROM HERE if you do not want to end up like my mom

Renea Adams This place was nice when I went. The owners were nice too; however, they charged me $100 dollars for a pedicure and gel acrylic set. I will not be returning here at all. They overcharged me and my nails are all shaped differently! DO NOT RECOMMEND! And my set started pealing after two days, so I’m not going back. Go to Hawaiian Nails or some other place.

Clo I posted this review on Friday but it was taken down the following day. I got my nails done while on vacation but one of them had broke on the way home. I stopped here to fix the one nail and the results are repulsive. The nail is crooked, painted poorly, and there was glue left all over my finger. Would not recommend this place.

Beverly Womble This is "The Best" nail salon Ive used in my twenty plus years of receiving this type of service. I appreciate the professionalism and the friendly mannerism of each individual. The atmosphere is always calm with relaxing music. I enjoy the conversations I have with my nail technician. Shes very attentive and remembers the colors I like. Im very pleased as a client in this business establishment.

Caydence Gray The nail technician messed up my nails and still charged me $43 for a fill in and cut down. I do not recommend this place to people of color, they cater to older white women. The positive side is they are not usually busy if you need a last minute/quick fill.

Beth I went in once and the next time they remembered my name. Thats never happened before. Prices are very fair. $55 for a French dip The work they do is outstanding. My nails look great Update: I love this place. Pedicures are only $35. Nail dip $45 The service is outstanding and keeps me coming back again and again. They make sure you are happy and they honor appointments. You are a client and not a customer here Look at the fabulous dip for New Years Eve!!!!

Judy Sawyer They were so nice n did so good ! Always go here, the most recent time though I learned to be cautious of walkins and be sure to call. Had to wait an hour for them to do someone just for me to come back and they took someone else causing me to have to wait for someone else again to finish . Had to leave and go somewhere else on my birthday.

Nydia N First time at Lees. I got a regular pedicure & gel manicure. It was ok. Pros: service was ok, reasonable prices, nice interior with iPads at each pedicure station. Cons: reservations not taken, theres a waitlist only, it wasnt the BEST polish job ever. It was just ok. Nothing bad... I didnt like that he used a drill on my natural nail to do gel polish. Ive never had that done before...Gel lasted an average amount of time. I notice the gel started lifting on the 6-7th day.

L Ms.Mahdavian There’s always a welcoming smile when you come. The wait is never long and the services will always have you leaving feeling good. Plus they have a lot of colors to choose from in regular or gel polishes.

Jana Beasley Jennifer just gave me the best nails of my life, forever customer now!

Kate Stanley Being that I am currently 9 months pregnant with my due date in a few days with a gift card my friend gave me, I was really looking forward to this...UNFORTUNATELY...I will NOT be back after this visit! The woman that was doing my pedi made a comment that was extremely unnecessary after I told her I was pregnant. She said and I quote, "Oh youre pregnant? I wouldnt have thought you were pregnant. I just thought you were big because some people are big like that you know?" We had just started my pedi otherwise I would have just walked out. She was the lady that wears the jade jewelry and only her thumbs have long nails. I cant remember her name. She wasnt very nice though and just left me there in the seat while my toes dried. I was just really uncomfortable the entire time. I was really hoping for an awesome experience and I just did not get that here! Needless to say, I did not tip her!

Heather Duprey I’ve been going here the last two years, since a coworker told me about it and it’s convenient to work / home. They do an excellent job and always do just as I want. Recently, started taking my daughter and they’ve done amazing with her as well.

Stacey Hayden I have been going here for years now although only as an occasional treat. The staff are friendly and do good work. I really appreciate that a new pedicure kit is opened for each customer, and they sanitize everything afterward. When I call to make an appt, the owner has my number saved, so he answers the phone using my name. Thats a nice personal touch.

LeAnn Gibson NY nails truly is a hidden gem. I have been going here pretty consistently since the spring of this year. The one time i didnt go here (because they were closed the day i was able to go) i regretted it. This will forever be my go to nail place. The people at NY nails always make you feel welcomed. Ive never felt like things were rushed or like I was the next person in the assembly line like I have felt with some of the more popular places in Tallahassee. The techs here also give the best foot and calf massages hands down.

Ms. Wanda Wilson Absolutely LOVED the experience! Went here on first date with my boyfriend. The staff were very friendly and I loved my pedicure and had acrylic nails added as well. They did a fantastic job!! I couldnt have been any more pleased with the experience!!

daysha Tay is the best!!! I come every two weeks for my fill and look forward to watching tay master every design I bring to her. I would highly recommend Royal nail spa as your go-to nail salon the atmosphere is great and the customer service is even better everyone is so kind and welcoming!!

Karissa Starling It’s been 3 days since I got my nails done and they are already chipping… for the amount I paid this shouldn’t be happening and I haven’t even been doing anything too physical with my hands/nails. Never getting my nails done here again.

Harleigh Wiley Went here last week after having a good experience a few years ago and have been super disappointed. Their prices are higher than other salons I’ve gone to for the same service (ie gel, dip, acrylic, etc.) but I was willing to pay that extra if it’s great quality. Sadly it is not. I didn’t realize till after I was home that one of my nails didn’t have the dip color over the middle part of it and was already cracked by that afternoon. I called and went in and to get that nail and 2 others fixed since they were already chipping within 48 hours. They fixed them which I was very grateful for, however, 4 of my other nails as the week has gone on have chipped and cracked. Just a heads up that you might pay a lot and not end up getting a good manicure let alone a lasting one.

Kenya B This is the best nail shop in Tallahassee. I get a basic full set of manicure and it is always done well. They have awesome customer service, fair prices, and my real nails are always super healthy when I remove the acrylic.

hopeless_ kris Im 55 yrs. Old and this is literally the worst pedicure Ive gotten in my entire life. The girl that did it , I could see was frustrated from the beggining as I walked to where I was asked to sit. (She was on phone) It was done in such a hurry she didnt even clean around my cuticle area and I asked for an acrylic on my big toe and she left it too high and didnt even color the sides or set it to cover my whole nail bed. When I asked her to shorten it, she gave a big sigh of frustration. The polish looks like a 5 yr. Old did it. Take a close look at my photos, do my feet look like they were done by a professional? They also didnt want to refund or fix it. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this place.

Ange-Lose Novin Terrible customer service and nail experience. I usually come here for my eyebrows and decided to get my nails done today and it was a bad experience. I was the first one there and two and a half hours later I left unhappy. I initially asked for an acrylic overlay with a design and showed them a picture and was told it could be done. Right before the polish could be applied I was told otherwise. I changed the design to something easier and they were unable to execute it. I expressed multiple times that I was unhappy and they told me that they couldn’t replicate a design but this isn’t even close. They did not attempt to rectify the issues I had with my nails. The customer service is horrible and I would not recommend going here for nails. From my experience, they don’t care about your experience or the final result.

Ronald Everett Had a great experience here! I got a deluxe manicure, and my nails turned out so neat and elegant. The staff were friendly and very detailed in their work. Definitely coming back!

Lindsay Myers This was my first time going there and will most likely be my last. The guy that did my nails kept getting hand cramps and shaking really bad. But my thing is if its thar bad you should not have said you can do my nails. They are so uneven. My middle finger nail is super long compared to the rest. And the shape looked funny. I had to try and fix them some when I got home. Which Im still going to go somewhere else and have them fix them up. For 60 dollars this was not worth it at all. Very disappointed. And they charge a fee to use debit card. Ive never had that had that happen out of all the places Ive gone to here. And they didnt tell me about the fee before they charged my card at that. Never again.

Katie Francis Martin Kent repaired my nails beautifully! Highly highly recommend! The best salon in tally! Thank you city nails and Kent for such awesome work, price, work, acrilices, and time saved. The best I promise!!!

Tyler C It was a pretty good experience. They did a good job on my pedicure and manicure as well. The place looked new and clean as well. However, I feel like they didn’t have that many color options and the pricing was a bit extreme for what I got. I understand pricing is going up, but I got the most basic, lowest level pedicure and manicure and it was almost $100 with tip for one person. Most places I go are less than that by a decent amount. Other than the price it was an overall good experience though.

Anna Moore My girls and I made 2 last minute appointments on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. Marie and the two other technicians did a wonderful job!

alexia allen This was my first time trying Lavish nails and they did a really good job. Lee was able to fix the imperfections from a set I had gotten done at another salon. He was kind and patient with me. I will definitely be back.

Grant Williams Helen is my girlll! She is very friendly, talented & gives you exactly what you want with no problems. 10/10 the best nail shop in town! Highly recommend.

aylisa redding 10/10 best shop in Tallahassee they can pretty much do any nail design you may want. Helen is my go to person very affordable and great work. Everyone in the shop takes pride in what they do and they work.

Ngelika Tobias-Narvaez Was excited to come for Helen, heard she did great work and my old nail tech moved so I was looking for a new long term tech. She gave me an appointment time of 5:30 after I told her I was a full acrylic Christmas set with designs. 15 minutes before she asked if I was still coming. After getting there 5 minutes late due to traffic (I let her know), She was still 20 minutes behind from her last appointment so I still had to wait. When I got in the chair she was very snippy and seemed to want to get me out of the chair quickly. She was kinda rough with flipping and filing my hands and again, didn’t really look over her work and was kinda on auto pilot not speaking. Her designs he werent very crisp and she never wiped them off to try again. I told her I didn’t like a color and she said “ok you need to pick I have another customer.” But I’m a paying customer as well… why would you book me for a full acrylic set when you had an appointment before and after me and rushed me out of the chair, I realized this would NOT be a place I would give my money again after she went to ring me up, showed me the price still not saying anything and handing me a pen to sign and I still gave her a tip and she took the receipt and never said bye or anything. I wasn’t rude I wasn’t mean or nasty, I asked 1 maybe 2 questions? 2 gems popped off when I woke up the next morning and looking over them I noticed many imperfections from bumps to dents and a finger print from when she took my nails out of the light too fast to rush me out. The nails were some what ok but I would’ve spent my money where I was wanted as a customer. Super uncomfortable and uncool. Edit: with the response along with that back and fourth conversation we had on Instagram, I’m not sure why she’s making me seem like I’m a bad customer or a terrible or difficult person. This was MY experience and from the reviews prior and her work online, I would have no reason to walk into this nail salon being rude or nasty. I’ve never had a bad experience in a nail salon or in general that warranted a negative review but wow… My old nail tech was an able to freestyle a vibe AS WELL as fit them onto my shorter almond nails (I’m a teacher, they need to be short). I’m not saying my money is better than anyone elses but it felt like it wasn’t even valued on the same level, I’ve never been told to hurry up and pick because the tech didn’t time her stuff out properly. I showed up 5 minutes late and still waited 20 minutes to get started because she was running behind on her last appointment, so late or not, I still waited, that’s fine. If she forgot about me or got times mixed up and told me that was fine and I would completely understand but rushing me out the chair is so unacceptable! I left my job early for this appointment. Again during the appointment I felt like I was so polite even after the hurry up comment so I’m not sure how I made it uncomfortable for her during the appointment. A week later my nails are already lifting like it’s been 3 weeks. I’ve never had an experience like this, and I pray you don’t either, maybe I caught her on a bad day and I wish her the best but degrading my character because I made an honest review is unacceptable.

Mia DAurio Literally the best nail salon in Tally! I have been here many times, and each time I get my nails done it turns out fabulous!! You can literally go in and have anyone do your nails and it will turn out 10 out of 10. I’m including my most recent nails, I got them done for my birthday and they turned out Pinterest quality! If your going to go anywhere in tally, I highly recommend Bliss Nail Spa!!

Devontearra Small A little expensive but I tell you worth every penny! At least the lady who did my nails did a great job

Kayla Brantley Asked for light pink french tips with a pink flower design. They took their time ensuring that I was happy with how it looked. Although it isn’t perfect, I think they did a great job and my nails closely resemble the reference photo I showed them. This was a gel manicure on my natural nails. Cost was $85.

Wendy Petersen So I went in to get a full set of nails I’ve done this not so often and paid a lot more than I paid here! Like a lot more ! This was the BEST Full set I’ve ever gotten! They truly did an amazing job ! Only regret is I did not get the wonderful woman’s name who did my nails. I highly recommend going here !

Mary Esquivel I got an Ombre Pink & White manicure on 7/24. The gal that sits in the very first chair to the right took care of me & I was very happy with them. I had made an appt for me & my 2 daughters. The down part of our visit was that we had made 2 appts for 3 & 1 appt for 330 & all 3 of us werent sat until an hour after our appts. To be fair, I was told that a few people had called out sick so they were short staffed but I think they could have done better with the time. Everyone was super nice & helpful the entire time and they were very attentive & talkative while we were waiting. I cant remember who did my daughts nails but their nails looked beautiful as well. I will definitely be returning & I definitely recommend!!

Connie Tynes Went in for brow tinting... Never again! The lady was really nice and professional, but brow tinting is not her strong suit. The left brow was arched higher than the right brow, (it was so noticeable), the ends of my brows was way to long and pencil thin, oh and it had that boxed looked lol just uggghh uuuggh!!! Now she tried to fix it but, you cant make something right when you dont have the skill set for it in the first place it just made it worst. She knew she had phucked up, She didnt even suggest to me paying half price or a free toe polish. Service was $40.00 and a "oh well"
