Lam is amazing! I definitely recommend you stop in and see him. My nails were in a world of hurt and need serious help, not only did he fix them but shaped them beautifully! He is professional, friendly and fun to chat with π Lam even gave my daughter a fun summer design that she loves and canβt wait to go back to get them done again.Thank you Lam! Youβre the best!
Love my nails lam did such a amazing job #thedrangon definitely did that π
Loved how well my nails were painted. These guys did greatAsk for Lam #Mushu #Lam #Lamantrè #Lamntray #prettynailsprettylife
Got a gel manicure, missed half of 3 of my nails rest peeled in 2 days. 4 days later thereβs barley any left, even cut me in a few spots. I was told Iβd have to pay to have them fixed. Probably shouldnβt go there.
Only place I will ever go. Mel and David and the whole family are great people just trying to live a great life for their family! No one can match Mels talent. She knows how get what you want and remembers it from the go! I love her to death! Support local!
I apologise for the last review it was just a misunderstanding and I wanna let them know thank you for making the situation right
The guy that did my pedicure, soaked my feet, he hurried to get it done. Miss spots on my nails,. I have polish all over my toes. I kept on going outside in the back. Came home to get my ingrown nails out. That he said I didnt have. I have wasted $35. Will not come back again.
The worker who did my set was really nice and kept conversation with me he did really good on my set I will definitely come back.
LAM was so amazing! He did an awesome job on my nails all while telling me corny jokes that kept me entertained the whole time! Will definitely be back again before returning home!
Nails looked terrible and the person doing my nails talk only about his ex gf.
Melissa is the owner and always does my nails. I highly recommend her! She takes pride in her work and does a phenomenal job. Great atmosphere and relaxing environment. Come and get pampered! You will love it!
I have been going to gel nails for about 7 months now. The staff is fantastic and very welcoming. Every employee pays very good attention to detail and makes sure you get exactly what you ask for. The environment is very friendly and I promise you, you will not leave without getting a good laugh in. Lam always does my nails, and they are always perfect. Great customer service with great experiences! β€
The guy who did my nails just wanted to talk about random things in his life the whole time it was so annoying. There was not alot of polish options so I chose to do gel polish and the colors were nice but the job was horrible...not to mention one of my nails chipped polish in less than a week and that never happens for me.
It depends on the nail tech that you have. My friend and I got our nails done yesterday for prom. Her nails looked beautiful. My nails were crooked and uneven. The guy that did my nails was very unprofessional and did not say a word to me. Very disappointing experience, I do not recommend. My mom also had a similar experience as I did a few months ago. Her gel nails that she got started peeling off 2 days later.
Oh my god! Literally my FAVORITE nail salon! The workers are so warm hearted & sweet! Mel, the owner, is the sweetest nail lady Iβve ever met in my life! The first time I went my nails were smooth & beautiful! You donβt have to worry about any nail being crooked because she is a perfectionist. She wonβt let you leave frowning Lam is so silly & funny! He makes the salon lively & happy! Itβs always a joy when heβs there! Heβll keep a smile on your face!
Everything you need in a nail salon. I went in for a fill. Lam did them, I love the shape and finally a fill that goes all the way to the cuticle! Quality job for sure. I think my total bill was 30 something but I had gel polish and an accent nail too. I would definitely go here again.
Gel nails is the best place to get your nails done. Ive been coming here for over a year and always have a very pleasant experience. Vy is my favorite and does s marvelous job is shaping my nails and helping me pick out fun colors of polish. They are all friendly and welcome you warmly. Great place!!
Wont ever go anywhere else! Best prices around and a great staff!!! Always super nice, and drinks are always offered! Lam and Melissa are amazing and always make sure I love my nails! Tons of colors to choose from and they can do pretty much any design! Will always recommend! π
Spa pedicure is just getting your feet wet and nails painted. You can scrub your feet and cut your cuticles better at home. Owners seem like new business owners and there is unappealing country music playing too loud- wonβt be back
Love Gel Nails! Friendly, knowledgeable staff, clean salon and equipment, up on latest trends, fair prices. Always pleased with the results. Nhi is incredible! Her attention to detail goes above and beyond!
I went there for the first time tonight and it was an amazing experience everyone was sooo nice and welcoming and I just happened to go there because the place I usually go too was way to busy Mel did my nails and she did amazing!! They offer a lot of different designs and is a very nice place! My nails are one thing I have to have done:) and gel nails is definitely my new place!!
I asked for a certain picture said he couldnβt do it ok, asked to just spilt the colors down the middle of each nail but each color is mixed in on the wrong side paint job sucks and itβs not even fully covering my nail (the color) made me pay $65 for $40 hack job
I had never been here before and it is a Sunday so not very many salons are open. These ladies worked their butts off and did an amazing job on my nails! They take their time, and they pay attention to detail. Definitely recommend them to anyone whos looking for a new salon to try!
I love this new salon!! It is so refreshing to have these dedicated young people speaking fluent English!!! It is a family business, and they deserve your business. Stop in and check them out, because once you do, you will be hooked. I highly recommend them. I met them at their previous location, and am happy to support them at their awesome new location. They are right by the gas island at Sams Club.
Pedicure was quick foot soak and went through motions of each step for seconds and then nails painted ( and not well )Had a gel manicure. Didnβt trim cuticles and polish looked like it had been diluted. No prices posted. Was shocked to hear mani pedi was $77 for what I got in return. Will not be back.
Went in to get my nails done, and right away loved it! i got the exact design i wanted & loved it. Affordable price & GREAT service.
I was in the area and decided to give Gel Nails a try... So glad I did. I got a full set (gel) with shellac polish and they are beautiful. David did my nails and was very gentle and didnt abuse my sad real nails, the full set is perfectly shaped, not to thick, no bubbles or oopsies, and a fabulous hello kitty pink. Everyone that works there is friendly and talented. Two thumbs up!
I have always had the best experiences at Gel Nails with Lam and Melissa. They always do an immaculate job and make going there fun. Forever gonna recommend Gel Nails to my friends.
I cannot say enough good things about this salon! I have been coming to Gel Nails for 3 years after shopping around for a nail salon that fit for me in the Quad Cities. Melissa is a rock star when it comes to detail and the entire staff is a lot of fun. I go every 2 weeks and have NEVER had an issue with cleanliness or skill when it comes to my nails. I have gotten acrylic, pedis and just simple gel manicures and all have been great experiences. Many of my friends now get their nails done at Gel after my recommendation and are happy as well. I hope to enjoy the services at Gel for many years to come!
Amazing experience! The salon is clean and the staff is so friendly. Lam was excellent! The staff even gave us suggestions on places to eat and shop in Chicago.
I went last week on a Sunday for a pedicure. As she had the clippers she says clip and I said yes....none of them where clipped..I got caught up watching the TV and didnt noticed til she was getting ready to add polish that she didnt clip any of them and they where already way past due. Polish didnt even get to edges..could still see my nail on sides. This is my first bad experience in 3 visits, but it was bad enough not to return. Also as I was sitting there a girl who just got her nails done left only to return a few minutes later pointing out a issue on her nail which they had to redo again. So looking for a new place...People are nice but ......that dont make the job good.
Lam is the best I swear! He always does an amazing job on my nails!!!
I would have rather taken the $30 I spent on a pedicure and flushed it down the toilet. The very small selection of nail polish they have, looks like they are about 20 years old-empty and or separated. I witnessed someone get turned away with an appointment because they were βbusyβ, yet it was just me and a friend in there. but helped 10 other people who came in after her. My toe nails look like my 9 year old painted them...with her eyes closed. Do not waste your time or money.
This is one of the best nail salons in Davenport Iowa. They all know what they are doing and can do any design that you wud want. Iβve had a great experience every time I have came here.
I was really hoping for a great experience. Im very disappointed, I have had many pedicures and I asked to have a toe nail fixed and it was cut off.. fine but then the manicure of my toes.. no making sure that I had any ingrown toenail...i can even deal but then the message of my feet not great at all
Overall, decent. Good with acrylic shaping, but took my acrylics off by popping them off, then used the drill on my natural nail. Put gel shellac on top of my cuticles which are a now grown out slightly and are a ridge on my nail. Not a super smooth top coat either. Meh.
Gel Nails is amazing. For my third time going there I went to get my nails done for my wedding with a few of my bridesmaids and they were once again fantastic. Awesome bridal packages for the Bride and Bridal party and excellent service. They are the place to go!!
Awesome first time expirience here. Very friendly and polite people. I am definitely going back!!!
First time trying this place out and my daughter and I had a great time there and our nails turned out amazing! Ask for Uh! π
I started with Lam in moline followed over to Davenport love coming in all workers are super friendly and make you feel at home, place is very clean at all times. I highly recommend getting your nails done here!!!
Friendly staff & great service. With an appointment we got right in. So happy to have discovered this clean, professional nail spot. Will be back soon!
The guy doing my nails was super patient, the lady doing my daughters...not so much. Overall great.
Amazing place! Always so nice and friendly! Love going here, I will never go anywhere else!
Friendly atmosphere. Very engaging while still relaxing. They make sure you are satisfied. Thanks!! Will continue to come!!
THIS SOLON IS SO FUN!!Lam was very sociable and helped make us feel at ease! My best friend gets married soon in Punta Cana. She changed her mind a few times on colors and Lam made jokes about it so she didnβt feel too bad with her changes. The outcome was GORGEOUS!Music was playing, wine/beer/soda was offered immediately when walking in, and the atmosphere is super chill.This would be a GREAT location for a fun bridal partyβ ASK FOR LAM! :)
Dont even waste your time or money. I went on Friday to have my nails done and by Sunday the gel Polish had peeled off of one of my nails. The guy who did my nails seemed to lack any typeexperience. I cant believe that this place is even considered a Salon More like a hole in the wall. Staff were more concerned about their phones than aboutthe customer. An hour of my life wasted gone, wasted in this shack.
Love this place and all the techs ESPECIALLY Lam!! Its a fun and relaxing environment and I would never go anywhere else!! π
The guy who did my nails was nice, but when they were finished the nails were uneven and he didnt let the polish finish drying before dismissing me so there were scratches and marks in the paint. Wouldnt recommend unless youre desperate for a cheap manicure
I have been going to Gel Nails for a while now and have never had a bad experience. I highly recommend this place!
Amazing, took so much time and effort to make sure it was done right. Best nails Ive ever had, couldnt be happier.
Everyone is wonderful and they get my weird sense of humor.Its a family owned business that make you feel like one of the family.
Ive been going to Gel Nails for about a year now. Cant say enough good things about this place! Lam is the nest nail tech I have found! I highly recommend Gel Nails!
I came in about two weeks ago. I think the owner did my nails. My nails looked great. I love how they look but her table was so messy, cluttered and dusty. The nail salon looked unorganized, wires were hanging from the desks, almost everything was dusty. She did my eyebrows afterwards, and she used an old, used wax stick on me. I could tell it wasnβt new. It is a Iowa law for the esthetician to use a new wax stick on the skin every time they wax your eyebrows. Iβve never been anywhere that reuses wax sticks. Itβs disgusting. The brow station looks terrible and wax residue is everywhere. I didnβt even even let her use the cooling gel on my skin because the bottle had such bad sticky residue on it. I assumed she should know how to keep a salon that she owns sanitary and neat but I guess not! Iβd love to come back to her for my nails but itβs just not sanitary enough for me.
Nice, clean, friendly, & very professional! Dao is awesome!
I have gone to Gel Nails twice and each time they were fantastic!! They did my wedding nails which turned out absolutely perfect! I would recommend them to anyone!
Lam did an awesome job on my mani and pedi. Very personable and polite. Thank you for such a great and relaxing experience.
Love this place, they take time and dont try to hurry you out the door. They always do a great job for myself and my granddaughter.
I had my nails done 5days ago, and my nails were already cracked on the next day I had my nails done.But I had work and I couldnt make it to salon for five days. and I call them to get my nails done again and they told me I have to pay extra οΌ10 to have my nails done. Its ridiculous because I had gel nails and it supposed to not come off at least a week. But what they have done to my nails wasnt good and now I have to pay another $10? Their Customer service is really sucks. This was my second time having my nails done over here and first time was really good so Im really disappointed. I wont go there again
Gel Nails is awesome, I had a pedicure there and it was sooo relaxing. The staff is nice, courteous and funny. Everyone speaks english!! I give them 5 stars. I highly recommend them
I went in there for the second time today they did not lie about my wait time they spoke perfectly good English they were able to help intricately designed my nails quickly and perfectly for only I think it was 25 Dollars Best place to get your nails done in town
Its 25.00 for a pedicure and 28.00 for mens pedi, but so worth it!!! Complementary blush wine and a beer for hubby. They took their time and did a good job with exfoliating and clipping cuticles, and didnt dig their nails into our skin to get into the cuticles like other nail artists. The nail artist did a good job painting my nails and cleaned them up neat with a brush and acetone so they look pretty. Defiantly worth the money we paid, but will still be going to a different salon because of price, and maybe go back occasionally as a special treat.
So I went to this nail shop today to get my nails done and I said I would like a manicure and she was like just polish right and I said no I want fake nails and she was like you think an adult would know the difference between a manicure and a full set. I just turned around and walked away. Why would you be so rude to a potential customer? That is not how you get business! I get my nails done once in a blue moon so, no, I didnt know there was a difference! I drove 35 minutes for their talents and get treated like $#!+
Always a great experience and amazing nails!!
Lam always gets me right it smells relaxing and not like acrylic and other smells very classy I can joke have fun laugh drink wine my suggestion is to hit em I give em a 10
Not very personal and end result was left with parts of nail unpolished and ruff edges
I love it here its so professional and peaceful
I was there not even a week ago and my nails are already starting to move down. I have an infection in my finger due to the guy getting to close to my skin and making me bleed. My nails look like crap. I got told my nails were dry and they werent. I asked for it to be fixed and got told no unless I paid for it. This is the second time I have been there and I will not be going back.
Great customer service!
The staff is really nice and the atmosphere is decent but for the price you dont get anything special. Prices arent posted so ask ahead.
We had to come home and buff our heals. They didnt even try to smooth them.
Always get us in on a whim!! Do a FANTASTIC job every time!! My most favorite pedi place!!
Lam & Mel took GREAT care of us today! Totally recommend them!!!
Called and made and appointment woman got my name AND NUMBER. Drove an hour and a half to be told they didnt have time!!!! Why take my number and then not have the decency to call me and let me know... VERY DISAPPOINTED AND WILL NEVER RETURN!!
I knew I should have walked out the minute I saw the sanitation and I am still considering calling the health department. The place reeked of cigarettes and one nail technician joked to another about how a third employee had to take smoke breaks before seeing customers, which actually occurred during my services. I believe the owner did my nails, a removal of acrylic nails with gel polish and a manicure after that. First he used a mechanical drill on my nails, and then he repeatedly had me soak my hands in acetone. Several times, he drilled the goo off and then had me place my hands in acetone heated with steaming water. He used the drill during the entire removal process. When that part was finished, he asked me if I wanted my nails cut. I said yes, please even them out, assuming he meant cutting the end of the nail. He then drilled on my nails again, at times using the drill to trim the edges of my nails or my cuticles. When he did trim my actual nails, they were several different lengths and shapes. My hands were very dry from all of the acetone but I was not offered any cuticle oil, instead finding just lotion that was caked around the spout with a peeling label on the drying station. As I waited for my nails to dry, I looked around the salon for sanitation measures. During my nail service, I noticed that the man doing my nails grabbed tools that looked covered with a white dust, then dusted my hands with an old, ragged, dusty brush. I noticed that the cash register was covered with a layer of grime, the displays were knocked down, all the pedicure chairs had old towels hanging over the basins, there was not a sanitizer in sight, the polishes were mainly old and less than half full and disorganized, and the floors were dirty. My nails hurt when I got home around the cuticle and a few on the nail bed. They chipped the next day and developed scraggly parts that needed to be trimmed. The surface of the nail is marred and has an obvious horizontal line where the artificial nail was. I hope my nails will grow out without splitting. My hands are still very dry even with vitamin E treatments and cuticle oil at home.I am a habitual pedicure customer around town and a rare manicure customer. When I got my nails done originally, I was in Arizona and there they charged a sanitation fee for disposable basin liners and jet covers. The manicure also included fresh instruments which were immediately put in sterilizing solution. Since the prices were the same in Arizona and in Iowa, I expected the same level of service and will walk out of anywhere that does not practice the same level of care in the future. This place should be shut down. It is in a great location where the community expects quality. The sanitation and service here give the whole area an unsafe feeling.To the nail technician sitting in the chair next to my area, its not a laughing matter that co-workers are smoking while standing at the open back door, smoke drifting in to fill the salon. When you joked to the man in charge drilling at my nails, I was halfway into the ordeal and had little recourse. I have even less now due to the no refunds policy.
TERRIBLE! The whole place smelled of cigarette smoke - one of the male employees couldnt even get through one manicure without excusing himself to take a smoke break. It was almost unbearable to be seated near him. My mother-in-law had to leave because the smell was so overwhelming. He and another employee were loud and yelling back and forth across the salon to each other the entire time. I get my nails done to be pampered and relax - this was FAR FROM either of those things.
Omgsh had the best time ever, nails turned out perfect. Ask for Alyssa...
Fast service and good quality
Went here for the first time and one of the employees Olivia babers who I didnt know until now took a picture of me getting my nails done and sent it too someone... worst experience ever very unprofessional.. never going back there
This place rocks! Best Ive been to.
Ive tried several salons and none compare. Excellent customer service and quality work.
Overpriced, not friendly, and did a horrible job just painting my finger and toe nails.
The prices are great & mel is amazing!
Friendly staff. They did nice work.
Not very hygenic. Workers were unprofessional.
Great service and high quality! This is my new nail place!
Walked in at 5:50pm and asked for 2 pedicures and they said they didnt have time when only one other person was there getting their nails done. Very rude and will not be back.
Best pedicure of my life!
Ive been going here for almost 3 years now, theyre fantastic!
They do a amazing job!!!! Highly recommend!
20 for a 7 year old to get their toes done & I got full set gel clear & my nails look terrible
Extremely unprofessional and my acrylic nails were all very uneven both in shape and in length.
Friendly, relaxing, clean β€
U guys did good on my nails and toes
The best in Davenport
