Nail Salon near Newberry, Alachua in Florida

Alyssa Montgomery: ★★★★★

I have been coming here for years and they have never let me down. Any time I have a special nail request they always meet and exceed my expectations and I have never loved a nail salon more!…

Leilani Heisler: ★★★★★

I can see why this salon is rated high in town. I don't get my nails done often, but I got a pedicure. The wait wasn't too long, the space was clean and the atmosphere was relaxing. The price was also good for a pedi and massage. The owners and the young lady who did my nails were super kind. She did a great job painting them! Will definitely consider coming back in the future. :)…

Maya Gadomski: ★★★★★

This place had wonderful service. Very kind people. They took their time perfecting the shape and nail design. Definitely felt the spa experience. 10/10….

Ruth Burbank: ★★★★★

Always nice, they do great job, I usually have Chtis do my hands and eyebrows, the ladies are great, and even though they don't advertise, they will do almost any design you bring the pictures, they got you….

carrisp 2001 (carrisp2001): ★★★★★

I love this place. Their service is always consistent! I broke a nail a week after having them done and stopped by to have them fix the one broken nail and the technician not only fixed the broken nail she also gave me a fresh top coat at no cost! I was just there and couldn’t decide on a color and went with pink and whites, powder dip manicure!!! I didn’t even know how that was going to work but she did an amazing job! So good I was asked if these are my natural nails when I got to my office. ☺️ These are my nails no acrylics just a really great manicure! Highly recommend this place! 💕…

Chels: ★★★★★

I absolutely love coming here! My nail technician, Nico, always does such an amazing job. I always receive such amazing compliments. My nails are healthier and stronger. The shop is very well maintained and doesn’t have that overwhelming nail polish sent like other salons. To anyone wanting a better nail experience, please come here. You won’t be disappointed!!!!…

Katie B: ★★★★★

Enso is the best nail salon in Alachua County. I came here for my bridal nails and have been going ever since. Niko is AMAZING! Enso Nails is elevated, relaxing, and just a completely different atmosphere compared to other nail salons. I recommend Enso to everyone!…

Deanna Byram: ★★★★★

I’ve been going to Enso for about 8 months now and went for the first time under the new ownership today. I’m happy to say it was the same old Enso! I received the same nail perfection and friendly employee interactions that I have always loved and come to expect from my services there! Will definitely be continuing my regular appointments!…

Yasmin Torrens: ★★★★★

Bit pricier than your regular nail salon but beautiful and cozy place! They offered complimentary drinks and Catt was the best nail tech! (Before & after pics 💅🏼)…

Sofie Anrecio: ★★★★★

This was my first appointment at Enso, and it was a great experience. The atmosphere is clean, cozy, and inviting. My nail tech Sophie was so patient and gentle with me. I really like Enso’s dedication to sanitary practices! I’ll definitely be coming back….

Mrose: ★★★★★

Today was my first visit, and I am so happy to have booked with Ms. Mindy! After experiencing her exceptional service, I'm certain I'll be returning. Ms. Mindy's dedication was evident as she meticulously worked on my nails, ensuring they were nothing short of perfect. Without a doubt, this is the best set I've ever received. I highly recommend her services and look forward to my next appointment!…

Luca Carlino: ★★★★★

MINDY WAS AMAZING! She did my partners nails both hands and feet. My partner got the Volcano Pedicure and the Gel X Full Set. Mindy is amazing and all of her work is consistent.

The staff is also so friendly! The receptionist, Sue, was very sweet. They brought us drinks and kept checking in on us.

WE WILL BE RETURNING!! 💪🏻…

michelle zuniga: ★★★★★

Drive down from Lake City because I heard great things about this place. My tech, Van, did not disappoint. He gave me a very natural look with a super cute design! I think I just found my new favorite place. It was well worth the drive!…

Tiffany Wilson: ★★★★★

Have been coming here for months and have used several techs! Love it! They always exceed expectations!! I get a new favorite tech every time I visit 💜 Eyebrow waxing is ALWAYS good too! All the techs impress me EVERY TIME!! I continue to be impressed ☺️ Always gorgeous sets!…

Alina Sin: ★★★★★

Mindy is my girl!! 💙These nails were the coolest nails I have ever gotten. She was so precise, even fixed a gel x nail when she noticed it was crooked. It came out beautifully and I will definitely be back again ☺️…

Cara MH: ★★★★★

My recent visit to this nail salon exceeded my expectations. The nail technician, Jenny, was able to accommodate my request for a specific design and stayed late to ensure my nails were perfect. I was impressed with the level of professionalism and talent displayed by Jenny. I will definitely be back! Oh and just to mention it was my birthday and I didn’t have an appointment but they gave me the best birthday nails ever!!!…

Amber Barwick: ★★★★★

I wanted to share my experience for the first time coming to this nail salon. I came based off of reading others previous reviews, and I also went to Jenny. She was very pleasant and very professional, and she did a wonderful job for a very great price on my nails I will definitely be going back highly recommend….

Zulema Milian: ★★★★★

Been here a couple times not disappointed Jenny is definitely the best for acrylics and hands. She’s friendly and patient does a great job every time. They do prioritize call in appointments so be thoughtful about what days you decide to walk in because it’s not that many employees. Pricing is reasonable and worth the quality.
Older lady who does pedicures is also patient and great at working with people who are ticklish like me. Will continue to visit here….

l Tillis: ★★★★★

Very nice people did a great job on my nails and feet…

M. Encarnacion: ★

I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the service I received during my recent visit 2/8/2024 with this establishment. This was my second visit; my initial experience was satisfactory, which encouraged me to return.

However, this time, the following issues occurred:

1. The technician, who seemed inexperienced, attempted to remove my nail polish incorrectly, despite my request for the appropriate method.
2. My pedicure was incomplete, as the technician moved to polish my nails without properly cleaning my feet.
3. Upon expressing my concerns, I was met with an unprofessional response from the individual at the front desk, suggesting I take my business elsewhere.
4. After inadvertently leaving my phone, I was compelled to pay $30 for the brief and unsatisfactory service to retrieve it.

I felt humiliated by the treatment I received and the manner in which my feedback was handled….

Eva Del Valle: ★★

Overpriced! I went in for dip. I have never paid over $45 for dip unless I got something extra or my nails were longer. My regular go-to nail salon has gotten worse, so I decided to go back here because I used to a while back. I am not sure how long this will last. The dip was not done how I am used to (dipping in the powder) but was done with an acrylic brush and only 1 layer. No cleaning of the nail area or anything extra was done. My nails are short and they were already shaped so he did not have to do any of that. When I checked out Rose told me it was $65😱. When I questioned it she got an attitude and said you have not been here a long time ago, as in justifying the charge. To make matter worse, she rang me up and the receipt said 66.30, so I asked about that. With an attitude, she said "2% charge if you would have paid cash no fee". Why didn't she tell me that before?
All they did was put one layer of dip powder with acrylic brush, one layer of clear and two 30 sec session under the light. That's it!!! I am not coming back. I love getting my nails done, but I am sick of the lack of customer service and hidden prices. No where on the chart is there dip and the only thing on the chart at that price was pink and white gel!!! I truly believe she just made up that price when she charged me. What a shame!! My nails look fine but I don't care how good of a job you do when you lack care for your customers and have an attitude just cause you can, I will not spend my money at your business….

Mackenzie Weimer: ★★★★★

Rose and her staff were very accommodating for a walk in at 5:30pm. They did my nails so beautifully and listened to what I wanted. Would highly recommend!…

Samantha Young: ★★★★★

I’ve been coming here to miss Helen for a long time and not once have i left disappointed she always slays my nails eyebrows and pedicure’s. This is the only nail salon that I enjoy coming to and returning too❤️❤️❤️…

Alex: ★★★★★

Kevin has done my nails twice and both times the price has been the same with lasting results! They are hardworking, kind, and never have they seemed pushy. They also spend time getting to know their clients and the atmosphere for me has been very friendly. Definitely reccomend!…

Kristi Booth: ★★★★★

Rose did an amazing job on my full set! Price was comparable, and I was taken right away. I do recommend having an appointment if you go on a Sunday; it gets busy very quickly!…

Carlee Moon: ★★★★★

I’m new to the area and started going to this salon about 3 months ago. Inside is beautiful, clean and the staff is super friendly and accommodating. They’re always able to fit me in the schedule even last minute and they have a fine attention to detail. I’m very picky about my nails/toes and this place goes above and beyond. I will absolutely be returning. I highly recommend….

Caitlyn Lee: ★★★★★

I’ve followed Helen for the last 15 years around multiple cities. I am very picky when it comes to my nails, and she kills it every time. Lately, I’ve been telling her to do whatever and she never lets me down. She is also great at designs or getting as close as she can to something you find online. I come 30 minutes out of my way to see her. Her and the other staff are always friendly and they try their hardest to remember your name. I also recommend her for eyebrow waxing. Although I have ventured out (because lack of time) on my nails, I will never venture out for my eyebrows. One wrong swipe, and you’re a completely different person 😆….

Melissa Robertson: ★★★★★

Love this nail salon , everyone is great here ! Helen does amazing work on nails and Don gives the most amazing pedicures . Highly recommend them !…

Sharneille Theophin: ★★★★★

Love this place! My tech was so quick and careful with my nails and they came out beautiful. I love how she and her coworker made my friends and I comfortable in their salon. I will DEFINITELY be coming back 🫶🏾…

Sarah Manders-Hughes: ★★★★★

I had the best pedicure of my life today. She took her time on every thing including my leg and foot massage. I did not feel like I was being rushed out like at other places. Thank you MN Nail & Spa for a great and relaxing experience…

Dede Kay: ★

First, this place only has so many stars because they basically pay people to rate them. 5 stars= $5 off. Not that it will help much with the extreme prices they have. I wanted to get my nails done for vacation, I took a peice of my clothing with me to match a specific outfit. After choosing the color. The nail tech, Annie, was nearing the finish of the last gel coat (I only got gel over my natural nails that I had been growing out), it was time for the seal. Before she sealed, I had mentioned to Annie, who was my nail tech, that my polish was clumpy and goopy. She insisted that it wasn't and started speaking very fast in a different language. She called another tech over and I showed her my nails, she suggested to put sparkle over it and insisted that it was the color I picked out and not the slop job that Annie did. I decided to agreed to try the sparkle (which did not impove it by much). In anger, Annie grabbed the stand my hands were STILL resting on, resulting in them falling to the counter and continued to pack everything with haste shoving all of her equipment in her drawer and demanded that I sit and wait for someone else to do my nails. She expected me to wait AGAIN for someone to be able to finish my nails. Her frustration was evident. I understand that some times people have bad days, and I've never posted a reveiw like this, however I've also never been treated so badly/rude. I called the manager, Nathan, and left my number 3 times within the week, asking him to call me back so we may discuss this incident, however he never called back and was always unavailable. With as expensive as this place is, I expected more from my service. I've also gotten several mediocre pedicures from this place, but never complained, as I understand that they were short staffed and most of the people where new, but never blatantly rude like Annie was. I'll never go back here again. With the direction the world is going now, I'd rather work hard for a service that works hard for me….

Karina: ★

Worse experience ever. I asked for a manicure and gel extension. The technician did not give me a manicure whatsoever. She did not prep my hand and simply glued the faux nail to my unprepped nails. When I asked if she was going to take my cuticles off she responded with “yeah I file later” and she sure did. She files my skin raw. Three days later all my cuticle is still there and my nails look awful. It was the most painful nail experience ever. Do not recommend!…

Kaylee Murdock: ★

I recently visited Azulene Nail Salon for a manicure and pedicure, and my experience was a mixed bag. Let's start with the positives: their pedicures are absolutely amazing. The attention to detail and the level of care they provide is top-notch. However, when it comes to manicures, particularly acrylic services, I was sorely disappointed. After leaving the salon and taking a closer look at my nails while sitting in my car, I was shocked by the poor quality of the acrylic application. It was evident that corners were cut, and the end result was far from satisfactory.
Dissatisfied with the outcome, I walked back into the salon to request a refund. They wouldn’t refund the $80 for the acrylic nails. Although they offered to fix my nails, I couldn't bring myself to trust them again after the initial disappointment. It's disappointing when a service falls short of expectations, especially when you're paying for quality.
On a side note, I initially requested a design for my nails, but the technician seemed uncomfortable with the idea, so I settled for a solid color with chrome instead. While this wasn't a major issue, it did contribute to the overall feeling of dissatisfaction with the experience.
In conclusion, while Azulene excels in pedicures, their manicure acrylic services leave much to be desired. Proceed with caution if you're considering getting your nails done here, especially if you have specific design preferences….

Gram: ★★★★★

Loved my experience today. Came in for my birthday to get a pedi and fill and was greeted pleasantly by Rose. She took amazing care of me from start to finish. Quick and efficient, knew exactly what design I was wanting. Love my nails and definitely will be coming back….

Angely Gomez: ★★★★★

I did my nails here and it was an amazing experience!! I did them with Rose, and she’s an amazing conversationalist, has a lot of experience and reallt cares that you leave happy with what you want. The vibes were immaculate and the customer service is super. Would come back again!!!…

Renee Alderman: ★★★

I go as a treat every 6 weeks or so. I like dip and gel. Nothing special. Maybe I'm old-school, but there was a time when you were not rushed in and out as fast as possible. Manicure included cuticles, shaping, gently filing taking care of nails beds and sides, lotions and pleasant service. The last time I was there I received rushed and rude treatment as if I was a burden. The Manicurist had a filthy station with someone else's nail clippings and filings and used the same dirty towel. I should have stuck up for it myself stopping her. But I didn't. The whole time I'm worried about infection. She did nick my cuticle which bled. So this place can't really call it a spa treatment . Try somewhere else….

Ryann: ★★★★★

My mom, sister & I have been going to Nails 1st by Ken for YEARS. Everyone is very accommodating and we have had no issues! We always get compliments on our nails as well. Could not recommend them enough!…

Sheila Lawrence: ★

Go here 2 to 3 times per month for nails , pedicures and facial waxing. Today was horrible service with the waxing as the technician got wax in both sides of my hair with no attempt to apologize for the poor job and even denied doing. The manger failed to offer anything to make up for this poor job not even to say they were sorry that it happened and charged me full price for everything!
Would love to hear from the owner concerning this matter ….

Marcell Hodge: ★★

I’ve never seen or been treated like this. I was her last Tuesday and pay $50 for fill and special treatment of nail polish called Cat eyes then by Friday night it was peeling !! They was closed on Monday and could not get here so I came in today on Tuesday now I have been sitting here waiting for over an hour because I’ve already paid and I want them to fix their mistake of nail polish. They have took 3 to 4 other people in front of me that was walk ins and I am still sitting here waiting. What a way to treat your customer, right !!! I see it as take the money and run, huh? Hi Cal, that very unprofessional and don’t really care a rats potato about the customer. It’s about make the money get out your face. See you when you come back and really don’t care if you come back.!!!!…

Jessica Thompson: ★★★★★

Perfection every time. This place is pricier than what I’m used to but very worth every dime. Always nice and always do my nails how I ask….

sarah rochon: ★

Update w/ picture below of what my nail looks like now. This is why is upset me so much when they told me it was my fault she burned me. I have to wait for the whole nail to grow out before it looks healthy again. :/

Disappointing, to say the least. The young lady was pressing too hard with the electric tool to remove the gel, and as a result accidentally burned my nail bed.

The young lady was offended I said something and instead of “I apologize and will go lighter”, she blamed me, saying it was my fault. Instead of taking responsibility and both of us moving forward, she blamed me and of all days on my Birthday before picking my son up.

But it didn’t stop there, I was blamed by two other ladies who come to stick up for the young lady. I am sad that this happened, as I am a long-time customer.

I forgive them, but unfortunately, they lost my business. It’s sad that one cannot hold themselves accountable and then blame the other person for their mistake. What happened to ones integrity. 🤦‍♀️…

Jodi Sarrach: ★★★★★

I've been searching for a nail place that I really liked & found a home here. Everyone was so nice & sweet! When I called after 3 weeks to schedule a fill in, they remembered who I was immediately & it just reaffirmed that I finally found the best place 💜…

Christine Smith: ★★★★★

I have been coming here for over 7 years and am always happy with the results. Sometimes I know exactly what I want; sometimes I ask Jessie to pick (after 7 years she knows what style/colors I like). Always friendly. Always professional. Even if I go somewhere else (out of town or a wedding party event), I am eager to get back here to have them done like they know I like them. Would definitely recommend them!…

Brandi North: ★

Wish I could rate no stars. Went into 1st nails today to get a dip powder mani done on my natural nails. This is what I left with! 😑 My nails look terrible. By far the worst job anyone has EVER done on my nails. My nails are different length, my nails shape is ruined (which they didn’t even asked what shape I like, they just rounded them and I do NOT like them rounded), my cuticles and the sides of my nails look worse than when I walked in. The dip powder itself has a TON of bubbles and isn’t smooth at all. On top of that, the clear gel top coat they put on, didn’t even adhere in a solid manner. The top coat looks like Swiss cheese! I asked for marble on my ring finger, I’m not sure what I got, but it wasn’t marble. Plus I didn’t ask for glitter, but I got two random globs of it on each ‘marbled’ nail. On top of everything else, I paid $45 for this, and that did NOT INCLUDE A MANI! So $45 for just some terribly dipped nails? What a joke! I’m sure some are wondering why I even paid for nails that look like this, 1) They finished and I paid. I didn’t even have time to really look at my nails, and I didn’t notice how horrific they were until I walked out into the sun to get in my car. 2) I had my toddler with me. She was over having to sit still and behave, so I wasn’t going to go back in an make them redo them.

I’ve heard a lot of great things about this place. But my nails look the worst. Visit at your own risk. 😒…

Hasha Venn: ★★★

Eh pass. This is my 3rd time coming. First experience was great. Second time I booked for me and my mom and arrived to see them closing up the shop an hour early because there were no customers? Mind you we made a reservation. Last time was yesterday I was seated and woman began my nails and put two nails on very crooked and I asked her to please redo and she tried to convince me that no it was fine till I insisted. Redid it still crooked and I asked again to please fix and she said “I don’t know what you want I will call another woman over to deal with you “ wow. The second woman did an okay job you can see in picture pinky is still crooked but wow the customer service is unbelievably rude….

Sarah MacDonald: ★★★★★

Always great service! And for the review below stating she was told “she didn’t have time”, I was actually the woman in the salon and that’s not how the conversation went. This person was rude and while she was in fact told there was no time; that was not a personal attack. They are a very small “mom and pop” shop with only one person that does certain services. She had a fully booked schedule & truly didn’t have time and was honest with her. That’s no reason to blast a business. Smh…

Paris Cache: ★

I recently visited this location because I’m new in the area and there was a lady working on another lady’s nails and I politely asked is there anyone here that can do eyebrows and at first the lady didn’t acknowledge me at all but then a man said yes we do so the lady doing nail responded no I don’t have time and I said really that was very rude and I walked out she didn’t acknowledge me or even look at me while I was talking she just rudely responded no I don’t have time and continued to do nails this was by far the worst experience I’ve ever had dealing with a nail salon and I will not be back ever again…

Lacy Spencer: ★★★★★

Peter does an amazing job every single time! Super clean shop, everyone is very nice & their pedicure chairs are the comfiest ones I’ve ever used. Highly recommend, make sure you make an appointment in advance!…

Sara Strain: ★★★★

Nice people. nails and toes look great. Didn't do a foot massage at the end at all. That's my favorite part… but I didn't pay them for that….

Jerrie Moore: ★

3 hours for a pedi and powder nails with tips! My nails are lumpy and different lengths not to mention the are not square round…I was ready to get out f there and accepted the fugly nails. I had a file in my car and got my nails semi even…still not acceptable to me but I don’t have time to have them re-done. Will not be going back…the lady was very rude when I came in…in hindsight I should have walked away….

Jackee Robb: ★★★★★

John and Lani are amazing!!!

Upon entering the salon, you feel so welcomed by their kindness to the customers and their staff. It is just an added bonus that they do beautiful work, that also doesn’t chip or break, and lasts! I have never had my nails done so well, and I have been to a lot of salons in town trying to find the right fit! I am always very pleased with their work. John does my nails, but Lani is also so sweet and does beautiful work. I am so glad I found them!…

Alison McMurray: ★★★★★

I finally found my home for all things nails! If you have been looking for an amazing nail salon in Gainesville, then look no further; Lani and John and their staff at Lux won't let you down. My nails came out better than I imagined! Lani is a truly talented artist and I can’t wait to see what she will create next. Thank you Lani and John!…

Maria Gomez: ★★★★★

I am new in town and was trying to find a good nail salon. I came to see the reviews of this salon and everyone was pleased. Lani did my nails and I can honestly say nobody has taken the time to perfect my nails the way she did. I would give her 10 stars if I could. I was not scheduled for a pedicure, but as soon as I got done with my nails, I felt so comfortable in the environment that I was in that I got one and I do not regret that service either. Sophie did an amazing job and she’s super sweet. Her husband John was super friendly also. They will gain another regular client for sure! ☺️ So pleased!…

Deborah Augustin: ★★★★★

Great service and great experience! I absolutely loved my nails. Lani went out of her way to make sure I was seen, even though their schedule was busy. Will definitely be back!…

Abby Bailey: ★★★★★

Went and saw Lani for the first time and was not disappointed! John said that the final product turns out better than the photos and he was not wrong. They turned out amazing! Everyone there is extremely friendly and kind. John’s sister has the best sense of humor and had me laughing the whole time. Overall, best experience I have had at a nail salon ever!…

Shawntel Bather: ★★★★★

I had my nails done by Kevin today. He was easily able to replicate a design I wanted and did an excellent job. He also is very fast and efficient. I definitely will be back again 🤗…

Joanna Long: ★★★★★

Loved getting my nails done here! It is gorgeous inside, super spacious and fancy. I arrived a few minutes early for my appointment, but they still accommodated me. Tommy handled shaping and prepping my nails which was great, and Lynn painted them. After leaving, I realized I didn’t love the color. I went back in and they fixed it right away and did not charge me for it. Such nice people running a new nail spa; check it out! Also has a wine bar!…

Serena Fakhouri: ★★★★★

When I arrived I was kindly told that there would be a 20 minute wait and I was perfectly ok with that as the workers were very friendly. They asked me multiple times what I was getting done so that they wouldn't forget and do something else. Kevin ended up being my nail tech and he was super friendly. The first question he asked is if I had a picture of nails that I wanted done, if I wasn't in the army I would have had one but I didn't this time. He made conversation with me and was super polite, he even felt bad after he nicked me with the file but I was perfectly fine. He did clean the cut for me though which most nail salons wouldn't bother doing. He was very attentive as to what I wanted, shape, color, length etc. And was even very informative about the difference between acrylic and dip powder. He puts in the extra time to make sure the work is done right and doesn't rush at all. I would definitely recommend going to this nail salon but I highly recommend going to Kevin. The nail salon is very clean you watch them take the instruments out of the packaging so they are sterilized. If you are looking for a calming experience with workers who actually enjoy their jobs, go to Valentino's Salon….

Christina Davidow: ★★★★★

My daughters and I were visiting Gainesville and happily stumbled on Valentino’s Nail Salon. Lynn and all the staff were amazing! Squeaky clean, great nail talent, and a glass of wine to boot. We love Valentino’s!…

Meghan Bainbridge: ★★★★★

This place is great. Best massage chairs in town and lots of pedicure options. They did a great job on my wedding nails too! And you get a complimentary glass of wine. Good balance of service and price….

Sara Russ (Sara Lee): ★★★

Went for a pedicure and requested the paraffin pedi with gel polish. The tech was nice, but I assume she forgot I asked for it because I got callus removal and the basic pedicure without even having lotion or any scrub, etc prior to her painting them. Only once this was done did I mention something and she proceeded to do the socks, lotion and towel. In all salons I’ve visited prior this was done prior to the polish but I again assume she forgot the pedicure I had requested. Even if I did not remind her, I still got a very basic pedicure with little effort. I was also charged an additional 15$ for gel, which is not a big deal but is not clear when advertising the pedicures they offer. Not sure if I just had a weird experience; the overall pricing isn’t bad for additional services compared to higher end salons but I’d try them again. Quality of the paint is decent and again she was very nice….

AGTV Allison: ★

I went in for a new set and pedicure 9 days ago, and yesterday my middle nail snapped off. I wouldn’t have returned but since i called and they said they would fix it for free, i did. Today i went in and got it “fixed” but the nail looks awful. The woman did not put any pink under the white so you can see through my nails (my other nails had the pink) and she put way too much white and it was a different shape. I would of been fine with it since i could deal with a weird looking nail for a week until i get them redone (at a different place) but when i went to leave, they said it would be 8 dollars. I informed the front desk person that I was told on the phone it would be free, and he said because of the length of my nails, it would be 8 dollars. i paid for the length of my nails when i got the full set only 9 days ago when i paid 130 dollars for a mani pedi. I would understand if it broke off from a fill because nails get old and weathered so they need to be replaced, but before i got them done i did not have acrylics on at all, so after only 9 days, it should not have snapped off (so easily as well) edit: the top coat she put on my nails today is peeling off as well, including on the new nail)…

Emily Blagg: ★

I made an appointment a week in advance and I was completely an obvious inconvenience. When i checked in I confirmed I needed a fill and a pedicure. My fill is horrible. The acrylic is bumpy, nothing is filed consistently, and the color is missing from the sides. I asked for OPI bubble bath and she did white? I asked if she was doing bubble bath and she said yes but it’s clearly not bubble bath. To top it all off they completely forgot about a pedicure so I left….

Korrie Harmon Schaeffer: ★★★★★

Today I had my fill and gel done by Julie. Julie was super thorough and sweet. She took her time and made the polish was even and fully pigmented!

Her son, Jason, did my pedi a couple weeks ago. Again, super thorough and attentive. Jason fixed the numerous issues I had with my toes and put on the polish perfectly. Usually my polish comes off my toes same day, but Jason did such a good job, it's all still there – no lifting or chipping.

Great experience with this dynamic duo! 💜…

Savy B: ★

DO NOT COME HERE ! I came for wax and full set. She left part of my eyebrow uneven also not to mention butchered my nails! I asked for short nails but not this short and even told her they were way too short. I pointed out that she missed a lot of areas with the white paint and she stated she fixed it (she didn’t). She cut me multiple times to pay as much money as I did and asked for it to be fixed I’m just in shock on how they don’t care for their customers happiness. I have engagement photos this weekend and now I’ll have cut up nails, horrible painting job, super super short ugly nails. Not to mention I hope someone can fix my eyebrows in time. Like I stated DO NOT COME HERE. They give away stuff for reviews no wonder they have so many “good reviews”…

kathleen vanausdall: ★★★★★

Absolutely love coming here to get my nails done!! I’d much rather drive 2 hrs to this nail salon and now that my nails will look exactly how I want them to and at a great price. I couldn’t be more happy with my nails. Definitely recommend Bi Bi…

Caitlin S: ★★★★★

I got my nails done here for the first time with Ailynda and she did them very well! They’ve also lasted me about almost a month now. I’ll definitely be making another visit!…

Erica Blackegg: ★★★★★

I love Bellagio! They are a recent find, as my old nail salon closed. Such a difference! The quality of the services is top-notch! I always have a super relaxing pedicure and gel manicure, and they manage to make even my super short fingernails look chic. The environment is clean and uncluttered, spa-like and elegant for such quick and easy services. I have never had to make an appointment. Someday I will try the amazing nail art they do as a splurge. It looks crazy fun!! They are a little more expensive than the place I used to go but the quality of the services is more than worth it. Update! I did get to Kaitlyn for nail art, and it has been a lot of fun! See her fun Christmas art featuring Undersea Gal from the Nightmare Before Christmas and The Abominable Snowman!

See Kaitlyn’s Queen of the Damned blood drop nails! Super fun!…

This was by far the best experience I’ve had at a nail salon in Gainesville. My nails were really bad off after not taking care of them properly. Kaitlyn at Bellagio did an AMAZING job taking care of me. From making sure she was easy with my nails and skin to slaying what I wanted!!! Thanks Kaitlyn, I love them!!!…

My mother and I have been loyal patrons of Love Nails for years, visiting monthly for some top-notch pampering. Everyone at the salon is absolutely wonderful, making each visit a delight. This last time, we treated ourselves to pedicures too, and oh, were they fantastic! The big massage chairs are so comfy—they practically swallow you up in the best way possible. We both opt for dip powder manicures and have consistently walked away with flawless results. Can’t wait for our next visit!…

Came in for my second time on Saturday and had yet another pleasant experience. Staff were all very friendly, the lovely lady who gave me my pedicure did a fantastic job and nailed the exact design id showed her. They always have a really cool rustic cooking show playing on the TV, which I absolutely love watching. 10/10 🥰…

waste of $70. i really did not like my experience here. i picked a purple shaded color and i got a nude. (107) the nails weren’t even fully coated and the service was rushed. the design was fine but i’m just really upset with the color. i told the lady it wasn’t the same and she did nothing about it. the lady’s were nice at least….

My pointing figure is hurting. It took over 2 hours for toes and nails I already had nails on and she charged me 70 something dollars for my nails to just change the shape and my tip color like really now I have to come back because my right hand hurts. But I’ll say they look great but seriously $119.00 I’ll never come back for the high of a price for toes and nails especially if I already have a set on…

Tami Maresch: ★★★★★

Wonderful! I'm so pleased I was told to go to Love Nail Spa, I was not disappointed. Hannah, the manager, was so kind taking time to ask me if everything was OK during my visit even though the salon was quite busy. Kayla did my pedicure and did a fantastic job, she took no short cuts I got a true pedicure not a half type one that most salons are going to these days. Her attention to detail was so refreshing! The price is right as well. I'm very pleased and will be returning, I also happily recommend Love Nails!…

I started going here a little over a month ago and I went to John I loved the first 2 full sets he did for me. However, on my third visit I asked for my nails to be done like the first picture and the last three pics are what my nails looked like. I was not satisfied and I told him, instead of offering to fix it he said that’s what you asked for on the video you showed and walked off and gave the receipt to the clerk. I went ahead and paid and scheduled to come back the next day. When I arrived I asked to speak to a manager the clerk asked what happened I told her and she told me to have seat at station 6 John’s booth. He redid them and after he finished he told me next time I’ll have to find someone else to do my nails he won’t do them since he can’t do what I like. That really upset me and I felt it was rude. Not every single nail set a client is going to be happy with. I took the high road and said that’s fine cause after that I wasn’t going back to him anyway. But, it’s also bad for business makes me not want to come back to Cosmo again. I am going to reach out to the manager and let him know about my experience and John….

Tiffany McGee: ★★★★★

Omg amazing, best set I’ve ever had!! Got my nails done by Ken and he was very polite and understanding. The salon was very relaxing as well. Highly recommend!!✨…

Erika Walden: ★★

My appointment was at 10am this morning. This should NOT be happening at 3PM.This is literally just gel polish on my own nails. All I did was brush my finger up against my pants. I’m only giving 2 stars because my daughter’s nails turned out nice. This is only the SECOND TIME IN MY LIFE that I’ve ever gotten a “professional” manicure, and after what I paid I am so sad. I live in Macclenny so it’s not like I can just whip back up there. I came to visit my daughter and to have a nice girl’s day. At least she liked her nails. I don’t know how to fix this….

Connie Roberts: ★★★

My Mother's Day started great with my pedicure. The young man was very attentive and did an amazing job. I wish he could have done my nails. I was sent to another tech. The nail tech at chair #2 was awful! I showed him a couple of pictures of how I wanted my nails shaped, he was dismissive and inattentive. I had him reshape them and then he said well “Your nails are big”, I think he meant wide but it was still rude. I guess at this point he was getting impatient. The young lady checking in clients who came over and gave a suggestion to put rhinestones on my nails was also nice, and I think she was trying to make me feel better, he then said something quite aggressively in their language which made me uncomfortable. I was just ready to leave. Needless to say, my nails are uneven and he just didn’t do a good job at all. His client experience or satisfaction was not his top priority….

Kris: ★

I arrived on time for 1 pm appointment I booked online. Waited 15 minutes for him to finish previous customer. I have no issues with that. My issue is I sat in chair for ombre fill and pedicure. He was done with BOTH services by 2 pm. Started at 1:15pm. When I booked service. Both were to take 40- 45 minutes A SERVICE. It took him less than that for BOTH. Did not shape my nails to my request or give me color I asked for with pictures provided. Just a rush job. Now I am waiting to see if nails will lift or stay in take for 100 dollars I paid. First time to salon. Verdict still to be determined. Not impressed so far.

This was from survey after appointment… verdict in….NO BUENO!!! Will have nails redone tomorrow somewhere else. NAILS ARE LIFTING!! Just had them done at 1 pm today. Very disappointed! Glad I did not tip. Which I normally do. But something told me I was not going to be happy. First service and last. Place seems popular. Also would recommend dusting. Noticed cobwebs and dust on displays. New customer sitting in chair and look over and see that also red flag….

Angie G: ★★★★★

I’ve been coming here for about 6 months and i’ve never left disappointed. Everyone is super friendly and the place overall is super clean. Hannah is the girl i go to every time and let me tell you she takes her time and makes sure that you’re satisfied. Great customer service. you really are getting your moneys worth….

Jill Brickman: ★★★★★

Ryan is the most incredible nail tech ever and literally always kills it!! I look forward to my nail appointments every time I go, highly recommend!!…

Elizabeth: ★★★★★

Vyvy does an excellent job! she does my nails every time I go, she shapes them so good and takes her time. I get builder gel on my natural nails…

Minion 400035wq q Rob111: ★★★★★

Pretty nails and spa is the best nail salon in Gainesville, Florida. I would even venture out to say the best in the state of Florida. Make sure you ask for Ryan when you come and make sure you get GelX nails they’re cleaner, healthier and your nails feel great!!!…

Kerri Tijerina: ★★★★★

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! I should have done a review sooner! They are kind of new.. I went in bc I was close and had just gotten my nails done somewhere else days before, and they were breaking already. So I went in for a nail repair.
I asked for tips, yet the tech asked if he could do it “a better way for MY NAILS?” I said of course. Well he built the nails out of acyclic and THEY WERE BEAUTIFUL! Still are almost 2 MONTHS later! I’m waiting on these to fall off to start a nail treatment on real nails(they haven’t even started cracking yet). But I WILL continue getting pedicures here until my nails are in better shape.
The pics are of later that day….

Mariah Michaud: ★★

I tried this place last week cause I’m new to the area and trying to find a good salon to go to. At first I loved it. The customer service was amazing but the quality turned out to be the worst I’ve ever had.I’ve had my nails steadily done for almost 10 years. The very next day my gel polish started chipping. I have multiple nails already lifting and breaking and mind you I don’t do anything rough to cause this. I’ve never had this happen with a brand new set and I’m honestly super disappointed…

First, I will say that this review has nothing to do with the employee's or the former owners. Ray and Vicki as well as the workers are fantastic. Since this business was sold my wife and I have had issues several times with appointments. We have been going here for more than 22 years. Lately, we have had numerous appointments scheduled only to find out the appointments were not made or the wrong times were written down. We have spoken to the new owner each time and he made the appointments but then somehow forgets or writes down the incorrect times. This past week my wife called and made two appointments for her and I. We had to update our appointments from 1:30 pm to 2:30 pm, the same day. We spoke with the new owner and he stated no problem at all. The day of our appointment we received a call from the receptionist stating we were late for our appointment. My wife advised our appointments were for 2:30 pm. We were quickly said no they were not they were 1:30 pm. My wife explained she spoke to the owner and changed the appointment to from 1:30 to 2:30 pm. The receptionist told my wife that was not correct. Once again, she told him again what had taken place with the owner. The receptionist informed my wife they had other customers at 2:30 pm so we could not come. At this point my wife was upset because this same issue has happened previously. She tried to accommodate numerous times to allow us 15 minutes to get to the shop but was met with no even though this was the owners fault. My wife told them to forget it and we would go elsewhere. I called back and advised the receptionist he needed to call the owner and make this right since it was his mistake and he had done the same thing previously. The owner called back and did nothing but blame my wife. He didn’t offer any solutions and did nothing to help us for his error. He failed to realize I was sitting in the car with her when she made the appointment originally and then had to move it to one hour later. I quickly explained the events that took place and we were told ok. If this was the first time this has happened, we would have said okay no problem. However, this was not the first time it happened. As I stated, it has happened several times since he has taken over after never happening prior to him buying the shop. We miss the way the shop was operated when Ray and Vicki were the owners. To many avoidable mistakes are being made by the new owner….

Jennifer Bliss: ★★★★★

I forgot to ask her name but she did an amazing job taking care of my nails. Extra care and they turned out better than i imagined. Thank you so much!! Beautiful color too!…

Candis W: ★★★★★

It’s always so calming when I come here, I didn’t have to wait long maybe 5 minutes if that. She did my toes just how I wanted them and the pedicure was amazing. It’s not far from where I live and I’m glad I finally found a nail salon that’s perfect for me. I also got my eyebrows waxed. Everything was awesome….

Ayanna Price: ★★★★★

Ms Gwen is so great! She takes her time and makes sure that you feel wonderful and your feet look awesome 😎Vicki is my nail tech and she’s always on point!!! Love my new design…

Keyla Ivette: ★★★★★

This is quality nails last 2 weeks before refill!! The appointment for refill was 30 minutes!! Love the pedicures because always get a great massage!!!…

Bella Megleo: ★

My experience here was not the best. I went to go get my nails done and told the technician that I didn’t want the nails that she had given me anymore and she never listened to me. I had to pay $85 dollars for these nails and instantly regret it. She was going extremely fast as well… but my nails look chunky and the design does not match. I had also asked her to redo them because I did not like the design but she was not cooperative and did not do what I had asked her to do. This is what my nails look like compared to the reference photo….

Mindy Osteen: ★★★★★

Chris done an amazing job on my nails . I came in for a fill in . FINALLY , after paying 3 nail salons , I finally found someone to slay my inspo photo 🙌…

Chiky Carrion-Belliard: ★★★★★

I live in a different state due to my spouse being in the military, but when I’m home, this is THE BEST place in Gainesville to get my nails done. Definitely worth the wait (when there’s any), time, and my money. I also love the fact that my nail tech always remember me, doesn’t matter how long it’s been since I’ve been there.

I’ve included a few pictures of times I’ve got my mani/pedi here while in town. It’s my preference to keep my natural nails short. So this is the end result. 😊…

Kaitlin A: ★★

I got an eyebrow wax this evening for the first time here. After waxing, the lady put some kind of liquid/cream on my eyelid. It immediately started burning, but I just thought it was the normal oil they put on afterwards. My eyelid looked like this as soon as I got home and it’s extremely painful. Looks like a chemical burn to me. The lady was extremely nice and gentle, but I don’t think I will be back here, at least for a waxing….

C Castillo: ★★★★★

Absolutely my favorite and most reasonably priced place in Gainesville. Henry does
great work if you’re looking for someone who does designs, pays attention to detail and such. Hi is the best for pedicures and gives good massages. They have great customer service, they try to work with you if you’re a walk-in as best they can. They offer you beverages etc. I moved here about a year ago and I’m picky about by my nail spots but I love this place overall and never had an issue….

Faye: ★★★★★

My gel pedicure was the best! The young guy who did my pedi was awesome! He gave the BEST foot massage! My gel yellow turned out great and it's lasted a month so far. I get pedis everywhere and this guy did the best yet. My new spot. 👍…

Faith Smith: ★★★★★

Friendly staff, beautiful nails, and the most gentle but thorough pedicure I have ever had. My nails are almost identical to the inspiration picture. I love them!…

Joaney Herndon: ★★★★★

Advertise opening at 9:30am. Not true. However wasn’t long after that. Hi took really good care of me…. He did a Great pedicure. Prices were really good and not over priced. I will definitely be back!!…

Martha Stewart: ★★★★★

I looked up nail salons and Only Nails was the top suggestion due to my location as I live close by.. and it happens to be the best salon I've visited in town so far. I've tried out a few others when I couldn't get into Only Nails last minute and none of the other salons even came close to the experience I have at Only Nails. First of all, Only Nails doesn't make you put your phone number into a system upon walking in; the staff actually greet you and are very personable with you. Secondly, I've never seen Only Nails dirty! Always clean and comfortable! That's something I haven't found anywhere else in town so far. Thirdly, the prices are unbeatable for such a great service and experience. The staff have a very gentle hand and good eye to detail. The staff at only nails spend time on your service and don't rush through the process. Best leg/foot massage I've gotten from a nail salon was at Only Nails. Never too packed and loud, very nice environment and people here. Your first choice should be Only Nails. No other salon I've visited yet is as good as this one….
