Top Best 10 Nail Salons in Pensacola, Escambia (part 3)

Dr. Zelda Kitt Mindy is awesome! She made my toes feel special. I couldve slept comfortably. She was attentive and very kind. She gave excellent service.

tabeys natural nest After pointlessly soaking for 30 mins waiting for a technician in cooling water, warmer water was added but then Another 15 mins wait while someone else’s polish change was done. Requested Deluxe Pedi and and was so disappointed I almost cried. My heels weren’t buffed. No cuticle remover used on one foot. Old polish was left on. The dead skin inside the nail bed was not removed. The file was dull so the shaping was bad. I lIke my nails cut low and even but they were not, honestly I would have been better off stopping the service altogether. Waisted time and money. I’d rate -2 but they did clean the chair after the previous patron after I requested it and I was serviced by the owner, I noticed she had hand trimmers because they were shaking so I was respectful. NEVER EVER AGAIN.

Kelly Thompson These are just a few pictures of my nails over the 10 yrs I’ve had them done by Sarah at Lisa’s Nails in P’cola. Family owned & operated, well trained professional licensed techs, pleasant, friendly, very clean salon, up 2 date equipment, numerous chairs 4 pedicures that provide massage & tables for finger nails, wide variety of polish colors & all techs well trained to do manicures, tips, acrylics, gels & dips. Appointments & walk-ins welcome…no lengthy wait time. I won’t go anywhere else!

Vicki “Moonpen” Jessica is the technician who does my manicures and pedicures. She is wonderful! I’m so glad that I found this salon. It is clean, friendly, and easy to find.

Becca Turner I went to Lisa’s Nails on 05/28/2021 for a gel manicure. At the time of service I was really happy, the nails looked beautiful. However just days later by 06/01/2021 the polish had severe discoloration which is unusual of gel nails. I’m just really disappointed and I don’t think I’ll be going back to the salon. The staff was very polite though.

LunarSurfer I had a great experience. They were so gentle with my nails. The previous place I went to was so rough with my nails they were very sensitive. They did such a great job. I will be a repeat customer.

Anna Dandelakis The man shaped my nails and the young girl did my design. WHEN I TELL YOU IM OBSESSED I CANT STOP STARING ! Beyond great job !!!!!

stacy gill The atmosphere was relaxing- pedicure not so great. Manicure was horrible- language barrier. Worst French tip ever on my pedi and they charged extra for it. I was so embarrassed about my toes I removed it when I got home. And the nails were removed at salon. Go somewhere else for quality.

Bekkz Gel,dip, & regular polish all in 1 photo! They are very patient with the work....They really do a good job with the shape just tell them what u what and how u want it! They have wine and also arent too hard on your nails...if u see something u dont like just tell them and they will fix it for you!...wonderful girls day out with the ladies Im so glad we chose to come here for our nail day!!

Brandie Jarmon Came in to get pedicures with my daughter. The ladies were amazing! They treated us wonderfully and made us very comfortable. We will definitely be back for another visit next time were in Pensacola.

Jasmine Martinez Asked for coffin shape. None of my nails are the right shape. I actually spoke up about it and was disregarded. Wanted the most simple manicure. White polish with silver accent nail. Nails are painted so sloppy and they’re not smooth. I spoke up again and was disregarded. I’m very unsatisfied.

Amber Chaput Google says open. Called to see if they take walk ins. They picked up the phone and hung up. No answer, just hung up. Thought it was a mistake, called back. Nope, happened again. If that’s how they treat you before you even walk in the door, I can’t imagine how they treat you to your face.

Natishia MONTGOMERY I have been going there for 3 years there like family friendly great work and very polite and clean shop

Tammara Johnson Tammy and Danny are by far the nicest nail techs in Pensacola. Very personable and I literally love them and their beautiful family. When your nail tech recognize you outside the shop and to be greeted with a hug. They are not just doing it for the money. Wholesome people who love them some Tammy!!!

Rachel Avalos All my nail experiences in Pensacola have been terrible, but I decided to try again and I found the spot. Mr. David was the best and I definitely will be coming back the energy and the atmosphere here is amazing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Angel Lee I came in to the salon and showed a picture reference of what I wanted. Mr. Davis did an amazing job on my nails and the attention to Detail was amazing.he went above and beyond on all of my nails sets but this one has to of been over all the BEST he has done for me. He free handed every little detail on my nails down the little bitty lines. 5 STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank you Mr. Davis for your hard work you did and always do such an amazing job.

Julia Kirk Wow, where to start? We called in asking 2 hours before they closed if they could do a classic mani pedi for two (my mom and I.) They were able to get us in and out in an hour, with phebomenal looking nails. I had maybe a cm of fingernails due to having to keep them very short, and i havent had a mani or pedi in 12 years. Despite this, Long was personable, nice, and fixed my nails to look like a beautiful set despite the fact i had almost no nail to work with. Linda had to bust out the grater to get the dead skin on my feet, and I ended up crying on the way home because of hpw sweet she was. She reassured me that she does pedicures all day, and that her job was to make my nails beautiful. Neither artist shamed me for the state of my nails, feet, or hands, and precisely handled them with care and expertise. I cannot praise them enough. My mom, who is difficult to please, also has found an amazing Nail artist to now help her with her nails as she is 70 and starting to lose the ability to take care of them. Tammy took care of her and had her nails shining. I really cant praise this place enough. Fair prices for everything you get too!!!

LadyDeathStrike123 I have gone to Nails Envy several times right now and every time the staff service has been so welcoming and friendly. This is the main reason why I keep coming back. Mr Davis (Pictures attached of his work) has done my nails a few times now actually and every time I show him a picture of my idea and he definitely delivers and adds his own flair. I really enjoy his style and he is very nice and accommodating. You really cant go wrong with any other technician there. They are all fantastic! I would recommend them to anyone!

Lauryn Jones I have been going to this nail salon for a couple years. I usually never leave reviews for places, but this morning I had the worst encounter I’ve ever had at a nail salon. I went in to get my nails redone from the day prior because I was not satisfied with how my nails turned out. I spent $60 on my nails and I felt as though the nails that I got were not worth that much. I was not rude at all and came in willing to pay whatever I had to pay to get them redone. LINH refused to do my nails again and told me that I was “rude” and “blaming” her for the outcome of my nails. Another short older gentleman then proceeded to tell me to leave the shop. I spent 5 minutes trying to reconcile and express that I just wanted my nails redone and I was not satisfied (not to mention that I stated multiple times that I was not trying to come off as rude). I will not be returning, this is not how you do service. If I could leave 0/5 stars, I would.

Lalla T. Pierce I have been driving back to my nail salon of 15+ years (30-40 minutes one way) ever since we moved downtown. I’ve been so hesitant to try a new place. Paris Nails was great! Professional, fast, and I love my nails and toes!

Callie Johnson Fastest pedicure of my life, could be a good or bad thing. In this case it was rather negative, lasted about 20 minutes, felt rushed, not relaxing. Not to mention, I walked out bleeding as pictured. Not worth the money.

Lori Cruz Terrible service. Not worth the money at all. Booked and appointment online and was told their booking system does not work so I did not have an appointment although it was confirmed by them. Both staff who did my pedicure and manicure were so rough they broke skin on several fingers then continued to get gel polish in the cut which was extremely painful. Asked for an overlay with French tip and was given the sloppy job plus the guy doing my nails was pausing to text & talk on the phone every minute. Asked him to fix a few spots that were very uneven/lumpy (which was most of the nails honestly) and he just about threw a fit saying they were already smooth before filing them down. French tip looks awful and uneven. One nail needed a tip and came out so much longer than the rest. Overall terrible experience, didn’t want to argue the price since I will never be going back.

Fs I really did love my nails and my toes were okay they could have done a better job but I felt like was up charged like crazy if it wasn’t for that I would’ve came back. I got very short nails and designs and they changed me 150. I do nails and don’t charge that much for what I got and even if I get my nails done somewhere else with a longer length and more designs I don’t get charged that much. 150 and I didn’t even get a pedicure just a color change and very short nails is crazy I wasn’t expecting that

Abby I just had to laugh at this version of a "pink/white ombre." I have no words as its quite possibly the worst thing Ive ever seen. Yes, I could have been more verbal and demanded that someone else take over and make it better, but I just wanted to get out of there and never return.

Kaysea Adams Jenny does amazing work! Every time she does my nails I get the best compliments. It’s with her attention to detail that makes her so awesome!

amanda archer Absolutely the best ever! I plan on coming here every two weeks and I live 12 hours away. Kathy did amazing job on my artwork and her brother ( sorry, I can’t remember his name ) was very quick at filling my nails. Great pricing too!!!!

Aaliyah Brown Went to get my toes done for my baby shower just a regular express pedicure. The older lady who did my pedicure was very rough with my feet and used all the tools very heavy on my feet . I will not be returning to this chop shop , I also seen one of the nail technicians using dirty tools on 2 pedicures in a row. I would definitely not recommend this nail shop to anyone . You can definitely see the difference in how they treat their customers. I recommend that no one come to this nail shop !!

Erica Cassidy I’ve always loved this place for my mani/pedi! My nail tech Kathy does my nails perfect every time, every shape I’ve got, she’s done excellent and she goes the extra mile for me and I love her for that! She isn’t too rough on messaging the legs when I get my pedi, always makes sure I’m comfortable and my water is perfect. She could almost put me to sleep. Never been rough, never grew a fungus under any nails. The other employees even when they’re walking around they still will acknowledge clients and give a hello or how are you! Pricing is reasonable!

Lexi Powers I went into Lux Nail Bar when I had a break at work after my nail broke. Its extremely uncomfortable for me when I have only one or two nails missing so I always end up ripping them off subconsciously. So it was nice when they said they could get me in right away. I also had them filled not even 2 weeks ago at another place and though the girl was very nice, she didnt assure that any of the acrylic that was popping up was removed and smoothed before filling so you could see the yellow and distorted lines in the middle of my nail. Andrew, my tech, explained that he would do his best to fix and seal them because lifting of the nail can lead to bacteria and mold if water gets in. He took his time to drill off the parts that needed to be fixed and filled them in. He was understanding that I didnt have time to get a new set and that I would have to do it next time. He worked with me to figure out how to hide the lines that he couldnt completely fix under the acrylic and did an absolutely amazing job on the French tip. He saved my nails! And I work in an environment where my appearance does mean something, so I was so very happy to leave with this set. I will definitely be coming back.

Jessica Medina Andrew did an amazing job on my Christmas nails! The shape, attention to detail and his ability to take my idea and make it a reality is truly incredible.

Drew Shannon Second pic is what I asked for. 1st one is what I got. They have a huge wall of colors but he told me they only had 4 browns to choose from and then he told me sorry ones being used so I only had these 2 colors. One basically looks black. When I first arrived he peeled my old nails off with an acrylic nail and it was painful- never seen this done they always soak them. Shape and design is way off. The nails were extremely thick and wide. All were different shapes, sizes and lengths. It felt extremely rushed as I saw him only put oil on 8 of my nails lol. I paid 67 for these plus I always tip. I decided to go back in the next day to ask them to take them off because I felt so embarrassed wearing them and they’re not what I asked for at all. I was so polite and even offered to pay. They made me explain it to literally 5 different people before they would seat me and fix it. And one of them was trying to make me point out the tech who did them which was very uncomfortable. The same guy told me nothings wrong with them they look just like the pic (if you truly believe that you’re in the wrong business). During me re-explaining it 5 different times they all talked in another language while looking at me making it very obvious that they were annoyed and talking badly about me. (Y’all aren’t sneaky and you’re extremely unprofessional). The girl who “fixed” my nails spoke to me once the entire time to say “clear color?” as she was already painting it on. I had to ask her to please fix the shape as she was just gonna repaint them. She didn’t ask me what I wanted at all. A very “let’s get this over with you’re a bother” attitude. And they’re still super crooked. Really bad experience. I would not recommend this place.

Haley Baker I’ve been here numerous times and my nails have always looked great, but I went today and they were a little busy so I don’t know if that’s what happened with my nails or if she didn’t know how to do a fill correctly. I didn’t really notice them until I stepped outside into the light but you can still see the color I had before and where the previous length of my nail begins which makes it look nasty and not clean at all.

kelsey griffin I walked in on a Tuesday around 11am and was quickly greeted. Although the techs were busy the woman at the front desk let me know someone would be with me shortly. I asked for gel x with a cat eye and that’s exactly what I got! Ne took care of me and I was in and out in no time.

G Raychel I was really impressed with Nancy! She has been doing my grandmas nails for years and I had the pleasure to have her as my nail technician. I did a simple short gel nail and she was so meticulous! I was very happy with her attention to detail! I would highly recommend requesting her!

Mary Sands Do not go to this place. Not only is it run down, but I was given 3 fifty dollar gift cards that they will not honor because they switched systems. They stole my money.

Rye I got a refill and wanted to get my sister acrylics for an early christmas present to her. My nails are thicker than they should be, and the tips of them are not painted so you can see the acrylic. They also didn’t file them all the way down like they were supposed to, she left color on my existing nail. I asked for acrylics for my sister and they did not do acrylic. They put glue-on tips on her nails and painted over them with gel and charged me $72 for them. The ends of the nails are slanted and the nails are crooked. They took advantage of the fact that I wasn’t watching her do my sisters nails.

Alaina Rodriguez Good environment, way overpriced for what was done.... got French tip, gel, which is what I got... but Ive never had them peel off in under 10hrs!!! Thats absolutely crazy! I got them done yesterday and half werent fully reaching each side of my nail. Im not sure if it was the polish gel used or poor curing...but poor application in general. I mentioned I was a bartender so they typically cure for longer (at least at my usual salon) I got two gel services mani pedi and paid for my friends pedi and the total was $190...will stick to my regular nail place :(

Lovely J Ladies dont ever go to L & C Nails on 9th Avenue and Langley. Ive had the worst experience of my life. I came here due to me working and missing my nail appointment. Not only that he insulted me further by saying I just didnt want to pay for the service when Im very capable of paying for the service! I guess he stereotyped me for some reason. Maybe because my hair is tied up, because I just spent more on my hair than what I spent for my nails to get done. Andy is very unprofessional and rude. I will never come here again. It took everything in me not to slap this man! Now this is how far he filed my natural nails, to the point it hurt but he goes in to say this is how it should be. Smh like I dont get my nails done every two weeks.

Mariah Miller They did overall a really good job! I am trying to grow out my nails so I only got the gel manicure and some simple white polish, but I like it!

Debbie Frye Very friendly and professional. I needed a Hard Gel fill and pedicure. 2 techs were working on me at the same time, due to my tight schedule. They were quick and thorough. My nails are beautiful now. I will definitely return to this shop.

Allie Uhl HORRIBLE experience. I came here yesterday for a color change and a fill.. The lady used white acrylic which was not necessary/ I’ve never had white acrylic. I also wanted a dark color so on top of the white the color was not coming out dark at all. So she took it upon herself to do a blue underlayer (I was getting dark green nails) and then do the green on top. She did not fully cover the blue and it was showing at my cuticles and when I asked her several times to fix and cover it, she refused, saying that “she can’t bring the color back any further or it would damage my cuticle”……..wtf… I’ve never heard such a thing. Not only that, but one of my nails was a completely different shape than the rest and again, she wouldn’t fix it. Also, my nails were different lengths because she didn’t even measure. The whole time we were there the guy was repeatedly asking us if we wanted to get a pedicure and like pressuring us to change our minds. We told him at least three times that we just had pedicures last week and we were good. Don’t waste your time or money here. I went to Polished today to get them fixed because I hated them that much. Should have gone there in the first place. Polished is 10/10 the best.

Maria Guadalupe First time here and the services was very good , friendly staff . I loved my nails

Crystal Peek So I was recently in the search for a salon where they do pink and white acrylic nails. (I like the old school look) I called several places and finally found D&N where they said they do them. I just went back for my third fill in and I couldnt be happier with my nails. They turn out beautifully every single time and my guy is super fast. If you want perfect pink and whites like mine, go to D&N and ask for Tony. He is the BEST and as long as hes there, Ill keep going back. Edit: I forgot to add that even going as long as 3 weeks between fills, I have zero lifting. No chips, cracks or breaks. They hold up beautifully. Im telling you ladies- go see Tony @ D&N.

Dominique Samuel Young lady cut my toe and didn’t even say anything. I wasn’t really concerned about it until I woke up this morning and it’s really hurting.

Jessica Daughtry Im actually very pleased with this said I got my nails done pretty fast on a whim there walk-in service was great, they got me in and out within an hour and the set was $55.

Amber Love love love this nail place. They also play Christian music while you get your nails done great comfortable loving atmosphere my nails always look great and last about 3 weeks. The techs are so kind! I found this place 3 years ago when I moved from GA and fell in love with this nail salon ❤️

ItZme Ladi The ownership hasnt changed but the service has in the last 4 years. The pedicures are rushed, sloppy and the techs dont listen or pay attention for $40-$65. One pedi/mani tech talk back to the owner all the time when asked to do a customers feet/hands, like she dont want to. The owner acrylics/gels/overlays are getting sloppy and not lasting as they should costing $45+ The more customers they see waiting the sloppier they get and you become a $$$$$ and not what matter in that moment. This is an issue for me because These are not one offs. I noticed I was charged $140 total for a $65 pedicure and $45 full set overlay (overlay something I always get) with gel polish that I brought with me. They are over pricing and if were not paying attention, theyll continue getting over.
