Walked in at opening time to get a color change only for my toenails. 20 minutes later, I was told sorry, our employees are late for work. Another 15 minute wait and it appeared as though "employees" were arguing over who would take what customer (5 people waiting and 2 others had left while waiting). Left with a poor paint job and almost an hour wasted. Won't return. They don't value business or time for others. Read Less

This was my first time going to this nail spa and I am beyond happy I did. I called and booked an appointment when I arrived I was seated right away. I had my nails done by Michael he was so kind and helpful, he even worked with me to come up with exactly what I wanted my nails to look like. He made me laugh and smile the whole time, my nails are the best I've ever had he really took his time. I can't wait to go back and get them done again, I will be getting my feet done next time too. ♥ Read Less

Horrible first impression & experience, they gave my 10 year old, 5th grade sister a full set even though I specifically asked for a $16 nail manicure & paint. They tried to make me pay for services that I didn’t ask for. They were very rude and had sub par customer service to say the least. Read Less

This was my third time going on yesterday and it was horrible. First John (ponytail on top his head)filed my nails to short. Second every nude color I picked they didn't have. Third he's not a very good polisher, it's not even around my cuticles. Fourth and most important before I went to bed at 11pm I noticed my nails peeling the polish was coming off in the corners both thumbs and my pinky. Trust and believe I won't go back ever again.

I never leave reviews on places... Honestly I wouldn’t even rate this place a 1 star! Woman made me bleed under my finger nail then had the nerve to say she didn’t do that. Well it sure wasn’t bleeding when I came in before you started working on them! I had an overlay on my real nail and my friend got a full set and we were charged the same price... this place sucks so bad!!! My experience was so terrible I didn’t even let her paint my nails!

Used to be my favorite place for mani/pedi shellac. Since they moved into their new location, the prices have gone up and the service level dropped all the way down. They rush everything and my shellac comes off within 2 to 3 days. I have lived in Houston and New York and don't mind paying for good service but this is terrible. The new techs are not worth the money you pay. John and Hannah are the only two left that I recognize. John always does an amazing job but he's usually busy when I get there. I recently found Kelvin and Lilly, two of their former employees. Kelvin treats you like royalty! You can find him at 2235 Maplewood @Model Nail Spa in Sulphur. It's worth the trip...excellent service and fair prices! (I gave 2 stars for John only) Read Less

I've tried this place twice since it moved locations, needless to say I won't be going back. An older lady name Ann painted my nails and it looks like a two year old painted them, I went back the next day for them to repaint them and the service was no better. I chose a polish to match my feet and they are two different colors and the only thing they said was "I don't know but it's the same color." I was really pissed but didn't want to cause a scene so I just left and will never go back. Read Less

I have been getting my nails done every 3 weeks for three years and I'm VERY picky. I recently moved to lake Charles in August and tried a few salons out. Then I tried this one based on recommendation. And now I go there and no where else to get my nails done.       They have so many options (I do colored acrylic) and they actually listen when I ask them to file more or sand more . They've never been rude to me, they stay very busy all the time so they are always focused. My "new sets" usually cost me 40$ which is fair (you get what you pay for) but they give you a punch card for 5$ off.        They recently moved locations and gave me a 10% off discount. Plus a 5$ off next visit, plus my punch card. I've only gotten a pedi here once. It was ok. My nails always look good though. The key is being specific and speaking up! I'll post a pic. If you go, do it during the day before Friday. Their weekends are jam packed and you'll be waiting . I take my 2&1/2 year old son and they're so nice to him. Also- I personally like Linda. There is another guy with a pony tail. He's ok too, and lots of people ask for Kai. Every time I go they ask me "do you like coming here?" "Anything we can do differently?" Read Less
