I called Lux after actually trying another salon which I ended up leaving..they were able to take me in for a dip manicure with tips right away and I am so grateful for them! Such great customer service and such a nice environment after the bad morning I had. I love my nails and loved my experience today. I’m glad I’ve found my new nail place after searching for so long.
I’ve been living in Gainesville for quite some time now and this is best nail salon i’ve ever been to. The rest can not just make the cut. They have excellent service and the staff are highly skilled nail techs. They work so hard to maintain a clean and safe environment for anyone to get their nails done. I would make sure to book an appointment so you are considered a spot.
First time in Gainesville I decided to go get my nails done. I walk in tell the lady what I want she told me she to bust and have a customer, mind you they just opened and it was only one person in there! I will never go back to this place again how rude! Clearly they don’t like money!
Excellent experience! Clean, attentive, kind, friendly. As an OTR truck driver I’m going to have to come back to Gainesville just get my nails done here! Very affordable prices. Couldn’t be happier:)))
I’ve been here twice now after a not so good experience at another salon in the area and WOW major difference. It is a little pricey for college students ($25 for gel re-polish) but the customer service is so worth it.I never wait when I come here, they service me immediately, have positive attitudes and smiles, and it’s never crowded. I’m almost always the only person here. My re-polish felt like an entire pedicure and I loved it. Thank you!
I love that they are thorough, professional and dont rush thru the work. If they are busy they do not take customers to have them waiting as a courtesy. Appointments are best to avoid being turned away but sometimes you can get lucky 🙂. I love them. One of the best family businesses.
Hands-down best salon in town for SNS/powder dip nails. Attention to detail was great, very clean, and the results lasted for well over a month. Highly recommend.
I just had a pedicure as a walk in, and what a great experience! Masks are required, washing hands regardless of what you service you are receiving. The pedicure was very good and the massage relaxing. Will definitely go back again. Hidden gem!
Tim is my favorite. He takes his time and gives me excellent service and conversation and YES, I tip him. You would too.
The staff is very nice and cooperative. They are talented at what they do.
Lots of workers always busy in and out timely... jus get ur nails done u dont have to make friends with the techs lol
Got my nails done the other day and I love my nails
Thank you for taking me in so late! I appreciate it!! Love my toes ❤️❤️
The pedicures were wonderful they are very thorough did a great job
I never leave reviews but this salon deserves one! This is my second time getting a full set here and my nails are gorgeous, Lux Nails is definitely a hidden gem in Gainesville
My daughters and I have been to a few places in Gainesville, trying to find a place we like to get our Medi & Pedi and fills done. We were having a hard time until we came here. They are Great!!Very clean place and their tools are sanitized and they do a great job!!! Very knowledgeable in all they do!!! I am extremely picky on how things are done and the end result!! They have my vote and I will now be bring our daughters and grad daughters here!!!Please do not confuse Lux Nails and Spa with(LUXURY NAILS, they too are across from Dollar General) They are totally different. They are on NW 13th street. Dont go there!!!Lux Nails and Spa is between Archer rd and Williston rd on 34th street. Right across from Dollar General. 5 stars for me!!!
Couldn’t have been a better experience, thank you!
I have been coming to Lux nails (Not to be confused with Luxury Nails) for 14 years now. Tina is the owner and I have to say she is amazing. Her manicures and her pedicures last long time and she is truly a professional. Her staff is well-equipped to to a beautiful job not only doing a manicure and pedicure but also for waxing .Highly highly recommend her and her team
I attended a wedding in Orlando a few weeks ago and went to Lux to get my nails done before I left. The owner Tina and I agreed on a gel color that I assumed was the same as the orange the color of the wedding was themed around, but while on my way to Orlando I realized that it was too bright! I turned my car right back to Lux to change the color to the right shade of orange. I was more than willing and expecting to pay for them to be redone but they did not charge me at all! I’m very grateful for their kindness, great service!
Very accommodating and great job with exfoliating hands and lower legs/feet. However, I have no thumbnails anymore. Perhaps she was just evening them all out, but she didn’t even check while she was trimming them. I can’t even use my nails to open ziplock bags anymore.
This spot does excellent mani-pedis, very detailed and not super slow or lazy with the massage. Been here about 5-6x, always leave happy with my mani pedi; but they should get more of a variety of natural gel colors. Most of their gel colors are bold and bright. Also, the TV is always on and super low, so all you hear is nail clipping and water jets around you-lol. I’d recommend some music to make the place feel more chill. Other than that, always a happy customer.
This place does Dip right! Their dip nails are never too thick or too thin, it’s perfectly right in the middle which is where it should be. The other salons I been to before finding Lux Nails always did my Dip nails too thick but I did not realize that until going to Lux Nails. Not to mention they have a really good range of dip colors you can choose from! I could not imagine going anywhere else now -
Perfect OPI Funny Bunny mani and pedi. Thank you!
The son does good pedicures. Very patient. The mom rush through your service. Her gel polish last a day or so . She always say your nails are oily umm excuse me ma’am I have DRY SKIN!!!
I have been coming to Tina (the owner) for almost 7 years now and shes the best! I have bad ingrown toenails and she’s the only person I trust when it comes to removing them as well as the only person I trust with doing my nails. Tina and the others at Lux Nails are genuinely good people, I always get good service when I come here - no if, ands, or buts!
Beautiful nails, and many options.
Came here for the first time to get a gel mani and pedi...best experience ever!! My nails and toes have never looked prettier and the shop is very clean. Definitely my new go-to spot!
I’ve been coming to Lux Nails for a few months now and I won’t be going to another salon anytime soon! I’ve gotten gel on my nails and toes forever now and throughout my experiences with other salons, my gel nails and toes significantly lasts a lot longer since I’ve gotten them at Lux Nails. When I got gel from other salons theyd chip/peel off a week later or even a day later, but at Lux they have lasted for more than a month, the people at Lux Nails really do an amazing job!!
Awesome spot, I love this place. Clean and friendly . I bring my daughter to get her nails done & she loves it. Affordable & good quality!
My boyfriend and I come to Lux Nails and Spa all the time to get a deluxe pedicure and I could never imagine going to another salon! Even though it’s not a high-end salon, the service at Lux is amazing as they always take their time and never rush and I always feel welcomed here. Would recommend 100% to anyone who is thinking of coming to Lux Nails :)
Clean shop. Tommy was very professional and thorough! I love my nails.
The people here are always so nice and professional. And my nails always come out looking great! I also enjoy that they do not press other services on me. If I come in for my nails, they respect that is all I need. Theres no pressure to spend more than necessary.
In the end, my pedicure looks good, but I have never been so uncomfortable getting my nails done. My cuticles are still raw and irritated hours later. The whole thing was way too rough. I have so many issues with the experience. Will not be going back.
Visited from Ocala...best nail place I’ve ever been to!! Perfect gel pedicure ! Will be back.
Came to Lux Nails for the first time to see if they could repair my broken acrylic nails because the salon I got my acrylics done originally had completely butchered them. The older gentleman at Lux Nails, I believe his name was Kevin, told me that my nails could not be fixed and that I would have to get a new set. I was a little skeptical at first because I thought they were just trying to get me to pay for more than I needed but I was completely and fortunately wrong! He gave me a brand new acrylic full set with gel and they have lasted for weeks, unlike the set I had gotten at a previous salon that broke after a few days. I could not be more happy with my experience here; all the workers at Lux Nails were very nice to me and my nails have never been better. This salon unquestionably is worth the money and I’ll be returning soon to get a fill.
HE NEEDS TO SCRUB MY HEELS A LITTLE MORE.BUT THEY ARE SO SWEET .AND POLITE.
Love this nail shop. Everyone is super friendly and all the nail techs are skilled and do excellent work. This shop keeps up with latest trends, and have over 200 polish colors to choose from. Tina has been taking care of nails now for over 7yrs. Tina and her team at Lux Nails are the best in town.
Awesome customer service! I get constant compliments on my nails and I always refer my friends, and clients to Lux Nails. Keep doing great work! Thank you.
I live in Louisville, Kentucky but flew down to Gainesville last weekend to attend a friend’s wedding and stopped by at Lux Nails on Saturday to get dip on my nails before the wedding the next day. I cannot express enough how great this nail salon is! The woman who did my nails took her time with me (and didn’t rush like a lot of other salons) and the selection of dip colors there were more than I expected there to be. This place is now one of my favorites, if I ever come back to Gainesville I will definitely be going back to Lux to get my nails done!
I really liked this place until I was made to feel like my toe was the problem instead of a poor polish application. The nail tech took it upon herself to take off all of my gel polish without asking as the only problem was the one toe. Not only did she do this, but with a straight attitude and on top of it being excessively rough and passive aggressive. I do not take kind to this kind of behavior or service, so yall can have it. Sidenote: Im a very patient and kind person until you step on my toes. I was willing to talk to the tech about the way she made me feel, but she didnt care to hear me out. Here is a tip for you maam...treat people the way youd expect to be treated, and kindness goes a long way. That same energy you gave me is the reason I walked out and will not return. Enjoy.
Awesome experience! They do a great pedicure with all the little extras for the regular price and dont try to upsell you on anything. They were so nice and personable.
I went here yesterday for the first time. I was skeptical because Gainesville doesn’t have a good rep with nail salon. I got a manicure and pedicure and the service was very good. My nail tech was attentive and got every detail. I highly recommend and will be back!
Tina and her team always do a fantastic job. Ive been getting my nails done by her for at least 8 years and am never disappointed. Shop is clean and massage chairs are super comfy.
I have been a loyal customer of Lux Nails since they opened a few years ago and I have only gotten amazing work and service from them, especially Tina. Unfortunately I will be moving to Texas soon and will have to find a new salon to go to from now on, I don’t know if I’ll be able to find one as good as Lux Nails though, haha .!
Very customer friendly, reasonably priced, and excellent work. I will never try another nail salon in Gainesville.
.Good for quick manicureWould not recommend for every week. It is in and out factory typeGet em in get em.out
When I first moved from Jackson to Gainesville to attend UF, I desperately needed a new nail salon to go to. Lucky enough my roommate recommended me to go to Lux Nails and I couldn’t be more happier with my experience! The lady who did my manicure and pedicure was very friendly and took her time, which I am appreciative of. I found my new go-to nail salon on my first try, yay!!
Walked in for the first time yesterday and got a mani-pedi. Fantastic customer service. I met several customers that had been doing business with Lux for a long time and they all had wonderful things to say. My nails came out great and feet came out nice and smooth. Will definitely go back and I can see myself making this place my new nail home.
I LOVE this place. Best foot massage and best massage chairs in town. Very clean and great customer service. Prices are comparable to most places in town.
Love getting my nails done here. Very fast and very professional.
Great prices and nice staff
I got my nails done 6 days ago. I got the dip powder done and it is already falling off of my nails. It was not properly done and it has been falling off in full pieces. It also looks very poorly done and when I said something to the nail technician she ignored what I was saying and kept telling me Its fine its fine. Additionally, it was $40 which is high for a salon in Gainvesville, even with a manicure included. I am very disappointed by this experience and would not recommend this salon.
Horrible expirence. Andy/Lo was very inconsiderate and did a terrible job... he even gave me the lotion to rub in myself because apparently that’s not part of his mani/pedis. I would recommend saving your money and time and going somewhere that appreciates your business.
Quality products are used here...Tina is awesome! Her shellac literally lasts for 2-3 weeks and I workout daily with barbells. I usually call ahead but if I have to wait, it’s worth it.
I LOVE COMING HERE!!! TINA IS THE BEST HANDS DOWN NO DISCUSSION!!! NO DEBATE!! I RECOMMEND EVERYONE TO GIVE HER A TRY SHE IS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE OF HER CRAFT!!!
Kacie (not sure if I spelled correctly) did a fantastic job with my nails ! She was so sweet and was constantly checking up on me while she did my nails.
I would return if need be . The pedicure wasnt all of that she barely scrubbed my feet but she polished my toes very well and the massage was nice. My nails turned out ok . a little to wide for my liking but for the most part they came out ok no real issues.
Horrible Acrylic nails on my toes and my fingernails! I asked the lady to do my nails a certain way and she did them however she felt like doing them. I then let her know that she glued one of my nails crooked & she got pissed and snatched it off my nails with her bare hands not even tools knowing that it had been crazy glued already. After showing my mother whom is a nail tech in Miami the woman got upset and was very aggressive while doing my nails. My nails look awful I will never go there again & also when my nails were getting polished she didnt even clean up the messes she did I constantly had to be on top of her & that obviously aggravated her & the way she polishes she piles coats on top of coats and my nails look like trash. Will never pay for a job thats not well done & the customer service with employees in that shop are very rude and do not have people skills.
I went here for my birthday, hoping to have a positive experience. I walked in expecting a completely different price and level of organization than what I received; this nowhere near met my expectations.I made an appointment for 2 and emphasized I had later engagements that I could not be late for. When I arrived slightly earlier than 2, I proceeded to wait until 3 for them to even begin working on my pedicure and manicure. Initially I had wanted my eyebrows waxed as well, but when it was evident nothing would be done on time, I had to cancel that service.For everything in total, my nails were $80. The next day, my toes were already chipping. I had acrylics and they were made very poorly (very thick, not all same length etc) and did not look good, especially for the price I paid. The next day, (on my birthday) I went to complain about the quality and ask why I was charged what I was charged, since looking at the service prices, a mani-pedi should be a maximum of $60. The staff was extremely rude and yelled at me and completely solidified my opinion that Lux nails is not a good place. Dont go here, theres so many other options in Gainesville where the employees are nicer, quality is better, and prices are fairer.
My daughter and I both had pedicures here. I wouldn’t return here again only because of the lack of hygiene. During the pedicure the gentleman cut my daughters toe and it bled, he wasn’t wearing gloves and just kept rubbing his fingers over her toes to try to stop the bleeding. He had her blood over his hands and seems completed unconcerned about any contamination. This is the only salon I’ve ever been to that don’t wear gloves during pedicures.
They do jus what you want and their soo nice!
The staff were very friendly! Got a regular pedicure for $25 and it turned out great. Very relaxing!
Took the wife and I here to get pedicures for the both of us, plus her nails done for her birthday and we couldn’t have asked for better service - they were very friendly and also very patient with my wife who can be picky at times, I’m very grateful the team at Lux Nails made my wife feel special on her birthday.
Friendly workers, great customer service. Always make sure your satisfied before you leave.
Love it
Loved it My Money Spent Was Worth It True Honest Service. Definitely will be back
Horrible mani and pedi. No one even attempts to speak to you. They spent our whole appointment talking to each other in another language and our polish was shipping the next day. Would NOT recommend and will not go back.
Im so happy I was recommended to Lux Nails. Moving to Gainesville from Miami had me lost when it came to a good mani and pedi. The staff is sweet and inviting, always delivering awesome work! Ive followed the staff for two years now, best manicures, pedicures and shellac (my favorite). I 100% recommend Lux Nails.
I love the people at this spa, very professional, does a very professional job.
I love this place! I got a mani pedi done with a young lady named Vy, she did a great job! Very sweet and personable.
Place stated they were closed at 7. Came in at 6:45 told they were closing early because “it was slow today”!!! Yuck. Poor customer service. Give your money to someone who deserves it.
I came out of town for memorial day, and decided to come to Lux to get my nails done. It was the closest nail salon to the area I was staying at. As I procede to get my nails refilled the man doing my nails ignored me on multiple occasions while I asked him questions. He was very rough with my nails. Told me one price for my nails and it ended up being a different price, after everything was done. The employees in that shop is very rude and do not have people skills. I neverrrrr ever do reviews ever, but I felt like I needed to say my peice. I also work in a customer service feild and I understand the importance of being respectful and understanding the customer concerns which the employee at LUX in Gainesville FL did not.
My go to nail salon
I went there to get a full set and a pedicure . The service was nice, they really did make me feel welcome . HOWEVER ALL myNails were chipped within the next day and the popped off the next two days after that. I’ll never go back again .
Turned me away. Took one look and said he was too busy. Their shop had two customers
Always have a wonderful experience.
Very good . I love this
Their gel manicure is more expensive than most places in town and it literally chipped three days after I got it.
Like this place to do my nails
