Will NEVER go back here! Went and got a pedicure here and immediately the lady was pushy and mad because I didn’t chose the pedicure that recommended. She was trying to choose my color and got mad when I told her it wasn’t the correct color & kept yanking my foot! The other lady left wax all over my mother in laws foot and just had her wipe it off with a napkin. I told the “owner” how rude the lady was and he just looked like he could care less. They all looked miserable because they were working on a Friday! Will never go back! It’s so sad because this used to be a good spot for pedis. I will do everything I can to make sure and let everyone know how horrible of a place this is. They even took extra money out of my mother in laws card and thought she wouldn’t notice. This place is a joke! I wonder how the state board would feel about this? Such a sad and miserable place. Please don’t spend your money here. I promise you it’s not worth it! Read Less

I have been coming here for quite sometime and never will I return again. The owner asked what I would like to get done and I said "Pedi and I would like to see if you guys can fix three nails that broke and needed to be re-dipped" the owner said, " we can do that, but you need to come back later. We are too busy" umm excuse me! That's incredibly rude! I understand you may get busy, but to basically kick a long time customer out is ridiculous. I would have waited patiently, but instead i'm told to come back. I WILL NEVER RECOMMEND Pedela Nails to any of my friends or family. Don't waste your time. They're incredibly pushy and rude. Take your business else where. Read Less

If you are looking for a fast and descent mani/pedi , Padela is a good choice. If you are looking for a relaxing spa experience, it is NOT. There is always a long line. The staff is fast and efficient . However, it feels like they are in a hurry to rush you out the door. Bring CASH. Fortunately, I DID because I had read reviews from other people. But I observed the poor customer service treatment of a a few that paid by card. One lady spent 70.00 for services. She gave him a 20.00 cash tip and apologized because she had to use her debit card for services. He acted so rude and put out. Anyway. To each his own. But I prefer a less rushed atmosphere.

My personal experience was great. But my sister went and asked the guy for coffin style acrylic nails and they completely didn't listen and finished them out as short and square. I asked the manager to help and have someone fix it. My sister then went and had a lady try to fix them but instead just cut the short nails into a half-hearted coffin. In the process, this lady cut her real nails down to the skin and made the skin raw. Read Less

My sisters and I went to Padela today for deluxe pedicures. My two sisters sat down first and had someone assist them immediately to start their pedicures. I sat down two minutes after them after choosing my color. I did not mind waiting. I waited while soaking my feet for 8-10 minutes before someone came to start my pedicure. During those 8-10 minutes, two people came by to say "Thank you for waiting, we will be right with you." After the lady began my pedicure, it turned into a "catch-up" game to finish at the same time as my sisters. She rushed and made up 10 minutes of my waiting time, skimped out on a full massage and pedicure that my sisters received, just to make sure we finished at the same time. I would have preferred to receive a quality and thorough "deluxe" pedicure instead of rushed service. I should have shared this with her. So, for those reading this review, when going as a group and not served at the same time, it would benefit you to vocalize to your pedicurist "Please do not rush, my friends can wait". I should have received the same quality and amount of time given for my deluxe pedicure as my sisters received. Read Less

Their is no consistency. A few are very good and the others not good at all.  If you tell the owner STEVE he seems to not care.  I have been here several times. Only a couple times was this place any good. Since I complained to the owner he has been dismissive when I come in. He walks around talking to the ladies acting like he cares but I can tell he doesn't really care by his attitude, he just wants business and he seems to do ok. But, are the ladies really liking the service or the price and dealing with a low end service.My pedicure was really fast and took 10 min nails about the same. Since the last horrible visit I'll be looking for a better place. If you know one please let me know Read Less

I went In for a shellac change of polish and pedicure. While I was having my old shellac taken off the entire time the lady doing my nails tried to up sell me and try dip powder. I said no several times but she wouldn't let it go. Even though I asked for just a polish change she brought out the bowl of water to do a full manicure. I asked her to trip my nails and she ended up cutting them so short that it is painful. When my manicure was done the skin of my finger tip was over my nail. She told Told me she would put a top coat on my toes after they dried. I had to remind her to please put a top coat on my toes before I left. I have come a handful of times before and they are always trying to upsell you something. I don't think I will be back after the disappointment if this time. Read Less

I'm a little disappointed on how my friend and I were treated a few days ago when we went. I've been coming here for years and I think my mistake was to always go in and get a different nail technician. I believe that other customers who go into the same tech get treated better. The last time I went, will be my last time. My friend and I both got a refill and shellac but for whatever reason my friends nails cost $15 dollars more than mine. When I asked why all they said was because hers were longer, they were less then 2 cm longer than mine, BUT 15 DOLLARS MORE was EXCESSIVE. After visiting my friends nail place I appreciate how they've treated me and how inexpensive their prices are. Read Less

I really tired to do some research and this place had the best reviews for what was closest to me, and I left very disappointed. I do get that because I am a licensed nail technician that I have higher standards than most. But when the most basic sanitary standards are missed, I have an issue. I would have given one star but my nails ended up looking better than I was expecting.I got a basic pedicure and a gel manicure. One of my BIG issues is when a place uses CHEESE GRATERS on peoples feet to get the calluses off. I get that this is a fast way, but you aren't supposed to CUT off people's calluses. You are supposed to SLUFF them off with a PUMICE STONE. The rest of the pedicure was just meh, the polish looks decent and the massage was so-so. The manicure is where I ran into more issues. I had watched my technician finish with another client and then immediately take me next. No sanitizing the manicure station in between. That's a big no no. You are also supposed to use a large towel that covers the work area entirely, like a dish towel. She was using a small face towel. The towel is there for comfort and for sanitary reasons. While she was clipping my cuticle, she nipped my pinky and immediately used NAIL GLUE on my cut. This is so unsanitary that I almost walked out. When she was done with the nipper, she just wiped it off with the face towel and put it back in he drawer- not sanitized. She did as I asked and the manicure looks pretty good. I do have a fair amount of gel on my skin, but that will come off. Her massage was barely anything and was MAYBE one minute on each hand. I felt like I was rushed in and out and that they didn't care. I most definitely won't be going back or recommending this place to anyone.UPDATE:My manicure has started to come off, the glitter nails both started to lift on Monday, two days after they were done. I'm changing my star rating to one star because I had originally liked my results, and now they aren't even staying on. Read Less

So bummed. I thought this place was so great but they lack consistency. One time you go in & it's great next time you go in & walk out with your nails looking like garbage. I went in last night & this is probably the worst my nails have ever looked. The lady who did my nails said she has been doing nails for 20 years well for a veteran nail tech I was greatly disappointed. They look awful! Super thick, uneven, lumpy, bumpy & will probably need to fill in a week cause it's not close to the cuticle at all. I'll say it again worst set of nails I've ever had. Read Less

The removal process isn't supposed to include the GRINDER - but this is what is used after cotton, acetone and foil.

Worst manicure ever. Yesterday at 1pm I got a regular manicure and today at 11:45 am I have 7 out of 10 that are severely chipped and look like total crap. Less than 24 hours!!! And now that I think back there was no sterilization of any of the nail supplies. While I was having my nails dried I looked at their stations and all they had was a small lucite box with the trimmers and clippers. I usually go to bloomie nails across the street but yesterday I tried something different. What a waste of my $20. I know that I risk chipping by doing regular polish vs shellac but I meticulously brush top coat ever few days to help this from happening and can get a good week out of my manicure.

This place always seems to have availability and can get you in and out fast. It is always packed and smells really strong of nail polish and chemicals (which I don't normally care about except that I'm pregnant). Their deluxe pedi with the paraffin and hot stones was definitely worth it but I'd say the nail tech skills in general can vary (I preferred my first mani to my second as my nails weren't shaped evenly and were almost painfully filed the second time). Overall for the price and convenience I feel it is worthwhile place for quick nails. Read Less

Normally I'd give this place 4 stars, been coming for over a year now and it's been very consistent. However today was a different story. A gentleman I hadn't seen before was in charge of my gel manicure and deluxe pedicure. Everyone can have an "off day" and I think that's maybe what I ran into here. I asked for the gel manicure however at the end of my service I realized I didn't receive a full cuticle trim or the hand/forearm lotion massage. This was a first for me. And because it took awhile to get my polish done (he had to redo my thumbnail 3 times), I didn't want to ask the manicurist to go back and do these parts of the service that are usually standard. When I went to pay, I asked if I could pay the price for just a gel polish change instead of the full "manicure." The manager of the salon (Steve, I think?) told me that either I pay full price or he fires the gentleman who did my nails. Uhh... what?? The guy didn't do anything that would warrant being fired, seriously those were the ONLY options in this scenario? It put me in an incredibly awkward position. The gentleman who worked on me was perfectly polite and pleasant, so because I said I didn't feel like I got much more than a polish change the manager was going to FIRE HIM?? Good lord, I don't want the guy to lose his job because I had some hangnails and dry knuckles!It made me decide that I don't think I'd like to return. There are far too many nail salons out there to patronize an establishment who's manager would threaten to fire their employee LOUDLY in a busy salon in front of all the employees and customers. I'll go to the spot another woman with pretty nails recommended to me, Aloha Nails in Lafayette. It's too bad, too, Padela has a great selection of gel polish colors. But I just can't come back after the manager was such a dick. Read Less

Absolutely love this place! I came in here last week for the first time because I saw a lot of good reviews and upon arriving all staffs were friendly in greeting my boyfriend and I, especially the owner (Steve). I was immediately assisted with a nail technician by the name of Christy. She was very quiet but it was probably because she wanted to focus on perfecting my nails. From shaping to design it was all handled with grace. Let me just say, I rarely get my nails done and when I do I always go all out with design and colors and Christy was able to give me what I asked for! I spent about 4 hours there getting a full set and pedicure and it is one of the best experience yet. Definitely will be back! Read Less

The owner asked what I would like to get done and I said "Pedi and I would like to see if you guys can fix three nails that broke and needed to be re-dipped" the owner said, " we can do that, but you need to come back later. We are too busy" umm excuse me! That's incredibly rude! I understand you may get busy, but to basically kick a long time customer out is ridiculous. I would have waited patiently, but instead i'm told to come back. I WILL NEVER RECOMMEND Pedela Nails to any of my friends or family. Don't waste your time. They're incredibly pushy and rude. Take your business else where. Read Less

If you are looking for a fast and descent mani/pedi , Padela is a good choice. If you are looking for a relaxing spa experience, it is NOT. There is always a long line. The staff is fast and efficient . However, it feels like they are in a hurry to rush you out the door. Bring CASH. Fortunately, I DID because I had read reviews from other people. But I observed the poor customer service treatment of a a few that paid by card. One lady spent 70.00 for services. She gave him a 20.00 cash tip and apologized because she had to use her debit card for services. He acted so rude and put out. Anyway. To each his own. But I prefer a less rushed atmosphere.

My sisters and I went to Padela today for deluxe pedicures. My two sisters sat down first and had someone assist them immediately to start their pedicures. I sat down two minutes after them after choosing my color. I did not mind waiting. I waited while soaking my feet for 8-10 minutes before someone came to start my pedicure. During those 8-10 minutes, two people came by to say "Thank you for waiting, we will be right with you." After the lady began my pedicure, it turned into a "catch-up" game to finish at the same time as my sisters. She rushed and made up 10 minutes of my waiting time, skimped out on a full massage and pedicure that my sisters received, just to make sure we finished at the same time. I would have preferred to receive a quality and thorough "deluxe" pedicure instead of rushed service. I should have shared this with her. So, for those reading this review, when going as a group and not served at the same time, it would benefit you to vocalize to your pedicurist "Please do not rush, my friends can wait". I should have received the same quality and amount of time given for my deluxe pedicure as my sisters received. Read Less

Only a couple times was this place any good. Since I complained to the owner he has been dismissive when I come in. He walks around talking to the ladies acting like he cares but I can tell he doesn't really care by his attitude, he just wants business and he seems to do ok.

I'm a little disappointed on how my friend and I were treated a few days ago when we went. I've been coming here for years and I think my mistake was to always go in and get a different nail technician. I believe that other customers who go into the same tech get treated better. The last time I went, will be my last time. My friend and I both got a refill and shellac but for whatever reason my friends nails cost $15 dollars more than mine. When I asked why all they said was because hers were longer, they were less then 2 cm longer than mine, BUT 15 DOLLARS MORE was EXCESSIVE. After visiting my friends nail place I appreciate how they've treated me and how inexpensive their prices are. Read Less

I really tired to do some research and this place had the best reviews for what was closest to me, and I left very disappointed. I do get that because I am a licensed nail technician that I have higher standards than most. But when the most basic sanitary standards are missed, I have an issue. I would have given one star but my nails ended up looking better than I was expecting.I got a basic pedicure and a gel manicure. One of my BIG issues is when a place uses CHEESE GRATERS on peoples feet to get the calluses off. I get that this is a fast way, but you aren't supposed to CUT off people's calluses. You are supposed to SLUFF them off with a PUMICE STONE. The rest of the pedicure was just meh, the polish looks decent and the massage was so-so. The manicure is where I ran into more issues. I had watched my technician finish with another client and then immediately take me next. No sanitizing the manicure station in between. That's a big no no. You are also supposed to use a large towel that covers the work area entirely, like a dish towel. She was using a small face towel. The towel is there for comfort and for sanitary reasons. While she was clipping my cuticle, she nipped my pinky and immediately used NAIL GLUE on my cut. This is so unsanitary that I almost walked out. When she was done with the nipper, she just wiped it off with the face towel and put it back in he drawer- not sanitized. She did as I asked and the manicure looks pretty good. I do have a fair amount of gel on my skin, but that will come off. Her massage was barely anything and was MAYBE one minute on each hand. I felt like I was rushed in and out and that they didn't care. I most definitely won't be going back or recommending this place to anyone.UPDATE:My manicure has started to come off, the glitter nails both started to lift on Monday, two days after they were done. I'm changing my star rating to one star because I had originally liked my results, and now they aren't even staying on. Read Less

So bummed. I thought this place was so great but they lack consistency. One time you go in & it's great next time you go in & walk out with your nails looking like garbage. I went in last night & this is probably the worst my nails have ever looked. The lady who did my nails said she has been doing nails for 20 years well for a veteran nail tech I was greatly disappointed. They look awful! Super thick, uneven, lumpy, bumpy & will probably need to fill in a week cause it's not close to the cuticle at all. I'll say it again worst set of nails I've ever had. Read Less

Worst manicure ever. Yesterday at 1pm I got a regular manicure and today at 11:45 am I have 7 out of 10 that are severely chipped and look like total crap. Less than 24 hours!!!

I usually go to bloomie nails across the street but yesterday I tried something different. What a waste of my $20.

This place always seems to have availability and can get you in and out fast. It is always packed and smells really strong of nail polish and chemicals (which I don't normally care about except that I'm pregnant). Their deluxe pedi with the paraffin and hot stones was definitely worth it but I'd say the nail tech skills in general can vary (I preferred my first mani to my second as my nails weren't shaped evenly and were almost painfully filed the second time). Overall for the price and convenience I feel it is worthwhile place for quick nails. Read Less

Normally I'd give this place 4 stars, been coming for over a year now and it's been very consistent. However today was a different story. A gentleman I hadn't seen before was in charge of my gel manicure and deluxe pedicure. Everyone can have an "off day" and I think that's maybe what I ran into here. I asked for the gel manicure however at the end of my service I realized I didn't receive a full cuticle trim or the hand/forearm lotion massage. This was a first for me. And because it took awhile to get my polish done (he had to redo my thumbnail 3 times), I didn't want to ask the manicurist to go back and do these parts of the service that are usually standard. When I went to pay, I asked if I could pay the price for just a gel polish change instead of the full "manicure." The manager of the salon (Steve, I think?) told me that either I pay full price or he fires the gentleman who did my nails. Uhh... what?? The guy didn't do anything that would warrant being fired, seriously those were the ONLY options in this scenario? It put me in an incredibly awkward position. The gentleman who worked on me was perfectly polite and pleasant, so because I said I didn't feel like I got much more than a polish change the manager was going to FIRE HIM?? Good lord, I don't want the guy to lose his job because I had some hangnails and dry knuckles!It made me decide that I don't think I'd like to return. There are far too many nail salons out there to patronize an establishment who's manager would threaten to fire their employee LOUDLY in a busy salon in front of all the employees and customers. I'll go to the spot another woman with pretty nails recommended to me, Aloha Nails in Lafayette. It's too bad, too, Padela has a great selection of gel polish colors. But I just can't come back after the manager was such a dick. Read Less

I came in here last week for the first time because I saw a lot of good reviews and upon arriving all staffs were friendly in greeting my boyfriend and I, especially the owner (Steve). I was immediately assisted with a nail technician by the name of Christy. She was very quiet but it was probably because she wanted to focus on perfecting my nails. From shaping to design it was all handled with grace. Let me just say, I rarely get my nails done and when I do I always go all out with design and colors and Christy was able to give me what I asked for!
