My pictures says it all!! Jay is my go to nail guy, he does all the designs on point not only do I leave there feeling like I got the best nails around π itβs such great quality very impressive. He also does my sisterβs nails and sheβs picky about where she goes enough said. He knows what heβs doing so he works fast so if I have to wait I know itβs not for long. Iβve gotten my boyfriend name on my nails before by other nail places but no one compares to his freestyle letter looks like stickers!
Sat in the chair for 2 hours while an older lady worked on my nails. She was nice but she moved so slowly. I had to point out every uneven nail and ask her to fill it in, all of my nails are uneven and she ripped off one of my acrylics and I just realized she didnβt redo it, she just painted my nail. I told the lady checking me out about my experience and she said βsorry next time make an appointmentβ. Unacceptable. I would go back for them to fix, but I canβt imagine spending another minute in the chair. This place is terrible. I will never go back or recommend this.
I have been looking for a trusty nail tech for 5+ years. A good friend of mine recommended Jay here At Kernan Nails. From the beginning, I was blown away how precisely he listened to how I like my nail shape. He never disappoints!! This establishment has a clean and pretty atmosphere and everyone is always so nice. They made my eyebrows on point too!! Iβd highly recommend Kernan Nails to my closest friends and family!! Pictures from today!
I love going to Kernan Nails. Jay is amazing and he is so funny. He treats you like family and makes your visit the best while you are getting your nails or feet done. I am so happy that I found a great place to go get my nails and toes done. There is one guy that is amazing with pedicures. I feel so bad I canβt remember his name. I recommend anyone to stop by Kernan Nails and let them service you. Great environment, great customer service and skilled employees!
The staff are clean, talented and friendly. One of my favorite things about Kernan nails is that they are affordable and professional. They are very transparent about prices and will never trick you into getting some expensive service like most nail salons do. Jay does my acrylics and he is incredible! Heβs always quick but precise and can do just about anything you ask of him. I have never been let down by this nail place, I highly recommend them.
Iβve been going here for years now & they are the absolute best! Jay is an amazing nail tech, my acrylics have grown out for four weeks and zero lift....the prices are great too. Overall, very clean and great staff too!!
I LIKE THE JOB THEY DID IN MY NAILS REALLY CLEAN SALON DEFINITELY YOU SHOULD GO THERE REALLY LOVE THERE JOBS AND IT IS MY FIRST TIME THERE
I absolutely love going to Jay at Kernan nails! I always bring a concept I want, and he makes it so much better than I could ask for! He takes his time, but is also quick at the same time. He also makes sure you are happy with the final product. Overall the prices are great too!
Always very polite, and do a great quality job on my nails every time.
I love visiting Kernan nails to get a pedicure and I let Jay do my nails. I love my nails and shape! My family liked my nails as well, so I brought them in to get their nails done and pedicure. He works fast, so your out of there in no time.Donβt hesitate to ask for a design because heβs great at what he does! My nails glow in the dark too!!
Absolutely love this place! Jay does the best nails! I can show him a photo or tell him the colors I want and he just makes it happen! He also gets them done quickly but they are perfect every time!!
I see Jay for my nails and he does an amazing job. I show him pictures of ideas when I need and he has no problem doing them. He is quick too but I still get quality nails. I was referred to Kernan Nails from a friend after trying many other salons when I moved here and now I recommend Kernan when I can.
They do amazing nails .. found me a new place for my nails
I was in the shop today to get a full set and Henry and he jacked my nails up! The shape is off and he gave me that ugliest nail design!! Didnt look anything like my picture! If he couldnt do the design he shouldnt have tried to do it! Im very upset!! π€¬.. I also sat there for over two hours as he had to keep getting up to service other customers, I at least expected my nails to be on point! After I expressed that I didnt like the design I was STILL charged $52 for this HOT MESS!!
I love coming here, everyone is very friendly and very attentive. My nails always look beautiful. I will not go anywhere else.
My mother, daughter, and I got pedicures and the staff was absolutely amazing. I also got waxed and Van was thorough and kind. We will definitely come back!
I moved to Florida a couple month ago and my friend brought me here and Iβve been coming since. I drive from the westside to the south side just for them. Jay and his wife are awesome!! Everyone definitely provides great customer service. Youβll definitely feel welcome each time you come. I havenβt been disappointed once.
First experience was amazing! Will be going back
Van is an amazing artist. This is the best place to get your nails done in Jacksonville. β€
My nail tech is Jay abs Tina does my toes. They are what I like to call top shelf. I highly recommend them both you will not be disappointed.
I gave it a chance I usually see Jay but he is no longer there an what I wanted an what I got is two different things an on top of it was charged way more I was ever charged before wont go bk my nails underneath have globs they were not cleaned I waited with foil on my nails for over an hour he didnt pay attention to what he was doing worried about people coming in an tending to them.. an I of for a service that sucked
I got a pedi done at Kernan nails. I live behind there in Kensington, so figured..... On my right big toe, there was still a line of cuticle, there was also a smudge on my left big toe (maybe from hitting the table to dry). I was there less than 2 weeks ago & already took it off due to chipping & just ehh. I have been trying places closer to me & havent been happy.
Very professional environment. Great service. Economically valuable.
Jay is AMAZING. Very creative, time efficient and great costumer service. Highly recommend!
As always, Jay did a fantastic job. I used to go to him from another nail salon and I am glad I found where he works now! :)
Jay and Tina are the best!! Theyβre very neat and very friendly. Iβve never had a bad experience...
I had moved farther away from my last nail salon so I just walked into Kernan nails to check them out and have been going back ever since. Jay is awesome fast and does a terrific job, I found my new home salon !
Jay Did a phenomenal job on my nails. Not only did he stay longer after his shift to accommodate me but he made an excellent recommendation and I am beyond thrilled !Will be back, definitely recommend!
Didnβt have an appointment, only had to wait 20 mins and Jay did an amazing job! Showed him a picture of exactly what I wanted and it looked just like it!
The BEST place for nails. Jay is a magician, seriously he can do anything and Ill never go anywhere else.
Love Jay and Kernan nails. They always get you in quick whether walk in or appointment. I wonβt go anywhere else!
Ladies I absolutely love Jay and Tina ! I promise you will leave satisfied and I always leave a tip ... so worth it !
Second time making an appointment with Van and they didnβt acknowledge the appointment. No good at customer service and professionalism.
Iβve been going to Jay for almost over a year now. Iβve never had a less than great experience. Always on time, clean and professional.
I have lived in Jacksonville for 6 years and I am EXTREMELY particular about how my mani/pedi is done (third world problems I know). But I just found this place a month ago and have had a mani/pedi 2x so far and cannot say enough. Tony is amazing and is so detail oriented. My feet have never looked so perfect!!! His massages are amazing and you can tell how much he cares about a customerβs experience. And I believe her name is Vae or Van, but she is soooo sweet and is a perfectionist at best. The salon is clean, relaxing, and they are always on time. I hope to continue to have such a good experience because the worst thing is paying someone for a service and leaving with a bad experience and quite frankly a bad mani/pedi lol. Theyβre worth every penny here :)
Donβt come here at all, the overprice and force you to get stuff you donβt want . also i got my nails done a week ago and they broke from me not doing nothing
Jay & Tina & truly amazing at taking care of my nails! Little to no wait every time I arrive ! β€οΈπ
My husband and I went for the first time and it was amazing. They did a great job.
Wonderful massage and very helpful and professional π always very friendly and helpful
Van do beautiful acrylic nailsπ€©
Good service for the cost if you are looking for a simple pedicure. Polish is DND DC which is on the lower end, only a few OPI colors that didnβt look too fresh. What bothered me the most was that the door is covered with posters about strict covid protocols yet the staff inside were not wearing masks. I felt extremely uncomfortable because of that the entire time.
The owner disrespected client. I was call make appointment with Jay. ( he not work there anymore )But the owner still set up appointment for me with Jay like he still working there. This is disrespectful with client. You guys want come to this salon to get nails done, think twice before come in.
Jake is amazing, nice little place
Professional nails care, nice place, Nailtech so friendly, good customer service.
Love these people, always kind and professional! And most importantly, they do a great job on mani/pedi services! As well as waxing eyebrows!
I love Kernan Nails! I recently moved to this side of town and needed to find a new nail salon and I hit the jackpot. They are great, they are very conscientious about not hurting you, making you happy and ensuring you are a totally satisfied customer. They are great and Im so thankful that I found them.
Great job just like the picture shown to here.
I came in to get SNS and they exceeded my expectations! My nails look so perfect! Seriously better than many other salons in the area, Ive tried a lot of other places! Will definitely be coming back! Thank you again!
Great. All the techs are excellent !
Iβve been coming here for about 2 months and have never had a problem, my nails always look good and stay nice, and that says a lot since I work in a hardware store.... I love it here, thanks guys yβall are doing a wonderful job!!
This was my first time here and honestly itβll probably be my last. For starters I gave it a 2 star only because my toe nails look good but the overall pedicure experience couldβve been better. I also got a manicure full set acrylic and not even 5 minutes after leaving my polish is messing up. I had it in their βdryerβ for 10 minutes. I only used quotations because the so called dryer is only UV lights and no fan. The staff was friendly but the fact that they were eating food in front of everyone and even sitting in the pedicure chairs while watching tv and eating was not very professional. Pricing was great but overall couldβve been better.
Love this kernannails salon, they do great job and good service.
Nails barely lasted two weeks.
I love coming to Kernan Nails! Started out at their Beach location then came down to Kernan. Best prices around!
Donβt wast your time at regular nail salon just to get disappointed at the end, come to Kernan Nails and have Van take care of you. You will be very satisfied and leaving happy every time. Kernan Nails Rock!Lana M.
SNS powder
Thereβs a new owner now & he has completely upgraded the place. Everything is clean and brand new. New staff, gel colors, &pedi chairs!! βΊοΈ Super thrilled with this change. My nails are so pretty too!
Van is my person to go to when it comes to all things nails. Of you want a certain type of design. Just show her the picture and shell get it done.π₯°
Henry is amazing at nails and does anything I like as complicated as I am and van does my toes and always makes sure to ask if she is hurting me. This shop is amazing I highly recommend trying them!
Van is thee Best and so Professional
Henry was a pleasure very pleasant and really took his time with my nails. They look beautiful :)
This is Jons friend Tammy writing this review. Worst experience ever! Went here from out of town and regretted it completely! Should have waited till I got back home to Tampa. Looks like a 8 year old painted my nails. Please dont waste your money here girls. Took absolutely forever. Pedicure was not relaxing, massage chair didnt work and they wouldnt move me. Girl kept getting up every two min and seemed very distracted. Save your money
Had a very good experience with Van. When I came in I had a bit of a wait but it was worth it. I had a mani/pedi and was very satisfied. Ill be coming back again soon. All the way from Georgia. ππΎπ
Little rushed
The new owenership is awesome! I would definitely recommended coming here! Beautiful nails at Kernan Nails!
I had my nails filled yesterday and they look terrible. I will never go back. I do not suggest you waste your money or time here. The employees are all about doing it too fast and dont pay attention.
My second time visiting the nail spa on kernan...love the way they did my nails...if you want your nails to look great, this is the best place and Ive had my nails done many places....Great Job!!!
Very good service. I am very satisfied.Kernan nails will get you right with what ever you need
They did a really good job on my nails and I highly recommend coming here
I love this nail always so friendly and they take really good care of you and have so much pride in what they do β€β€β€
I got exactly what I wanted and got great customer service to !! Will definitely make this my nail place !! Thank you van !!
Service was fantastic. Staff was kind and did a great job!
Very good job and good service!!!!!
Staff is awsome they did a great job on my nails and toes I love it here definitely will be coming back thank you!!
We wonβt be back. I had black/green under one nail and 2 other nails are lifting. And my daughter first time getting her nails done has black lines one of her nails, and her acrylic nails keep falling off. Iβve never experienced this.
Loved everything about this place staff is great my nails and toes look great thank you
Terrible job! Ruined my grandmothers pedicure and birthday celebration. If she wasnt with me I wouldve thrown a fit!! This is a horrible job! They also overcharged me by almost $10. I will be telling everyone to stay away from Tammy Nails!
Ive been going to this place for YEARS! Ive seen it transform into a VERY chique day spa atmosphere. Pricing is reasonable, and the pedicures are the best Ive ever had. Stacy is my favorite :) The facials are fabulous! When I moved to Vegas, I made sure to visit when I was home. Now that I am moving back to FL I will make sure THIS is my ONLY place for nails, pedis and facials!
Asked for oval shape. Shape was uneven and did not match on each hand. Worst of all, cuticles bled days after. Gel polish also did not last more than 3 days before it started wearing off.
Been a regular customer for years. Got my sister and daughter going here too. Plus have referred others. Even when one of the workers cuts my toenails down too much. I go back. Why the one star then? Due to a policy that I feel is in place only to take peoples money. Warning to all, do not buy gift certificates here! This place puts a 6 month expiration in their gift certificates. Other businesses I frequent have at least a year on their GCs. And usually they will waive the expiration just to have the business. My mother, who is on a fixed income, bought me one in December. I put it in a drawer and then life does what life does. It kept me busy. I had actually been in at least 2 times since January but had forgotten the GC. I called today and questioned the expiration. The guy said sorry, policy, I only work here. It is the owner. Well, the owner just lost at least 3 regular customers.
I just left this place and Im so disappointed I wasted so much money for a terrible service. The pedicure was good. Now the guy who did my nails, really made me upset. First of all, he didnt have the proper tools. Ive never been to a nail place where they were using scissors to cut the acrylic nails. Then, he was hurting me and when I said something, he dared to tell me if I wanted a lollipop. Really? How sarcastic and horrible customer service. He was also texting while doing my nails. He stopped several times to reply a text. The third time he did it, I had to ask him to finish texting later. To make things worse he charged me for an extra service that I didnt ask for. Im so frustrated looking at my nails right now and one of them still hurts. Definitely NOT coming here again.
Awesome job and did our group same day
I am new to the area and very particular about my French mani/pedi! Van did an excellent job and paid attention to detail. Best french mani/pedi Ive had in a while! For once I didnt leave feeling like Id wasted my money! Also, they have the color match for gel polish so your toenails match your fingernails! They also have several SNS color choices.
Have gone previously with good results...sadly they have gone way downhill. My friend and I sat in foot baths until the water was cold. I had to tell the young man that the grater being used on my feet was dirty and to get a new one. Not even sure there is any way this young man has a cosmetology license. I had to tell him several times to stop what he was doing because he was about to make my toes bleed. The hot towel and hot stones were cold and they did a horrible job all the way around. We will be looking for a new place for pedicures. They dont even deserve 1 star.
My friend just went there this week and was charged twice. the first time was the correct amount. she then noticed a second charge in the amount of $42 extra!!! there is no possible way that could be a mistake as they have to physically key in the amount being charged on the pad. i would not chance going here.
Excellent. Owners run the shop and are great at their craft.
Love my gel nails and great pedicure. Try them.
The people are so nice and very patient. They even kept the salon open late once because I work until 6 on the Southside and desperately needed to get my nails done before going out of town that weekend.
I went here about two weeks ago to get a fill in for my nails and a lip wax. At first I thought they were doing a good job until to other ladies came in to get a pedicure. The person doing my nails rushed through them to move on to the other clients. I asked for a cheetah design on my ring finger and they came out awful, it look like just dots. Since I thought everyone was busy I wasnt going to get the lip wax but the lady insisted on doing it then and said it would only take a minute. She was right only took a minute but she didnt even get all the hair. Dont expect to get good customer service if theyre busy, they would just rush through you to get to the next play as soon as possible
Great gel manicure!!! Van was amazing, got a really great color and great quality!!! Will come back for pedicure!!!!
Very nice, excellent customer service . She was gentle and friendly !!!
