I loved my nails, I just wish the quality was better. Especially for the price. They charged me $110-$120 for this set and they were very fragile. I literally scratched my thigh and a nail broke. I was getting dressed and another nail broke from me putting on a sports bra. I understand nails break from time to time but not from small things like getting dressed or scratching and itch. And these incidents happened while the set was fresh (less than a week). Other than that, the staff always takes care of me and is nice. My tech always fixed my broken nails but I just can’t afford to pay this much for a set that isn’t durable while living an hour away and having to drive every time they break.
Made an appointment for 2pm but wasn’t seated until 2:40. the color i got was not the color i chose on the sample. nail tech was unfriendly, quick, painful and sloppy. when i asked if he could fix how straight the filing of a nail was he scoffed and barely fixed it. gel polish all over my skin. i was upcharged for needing more of a fill then normal even tho the growth was only 3 weeks old. i was upcharged for filing them down because i wanted them a little shorter. so many slanted nails. they definitely take advantage of college girls.
Violet was so nice! She did a great job on my nails. She asked me multiple times if I liked them to make sure they were perfect. Great service, thank you Violet!
I came in today to get a full set with Violet. She was very nice and could do any design that you want! They had free drinks and candy and even charged my phone for me! I’ve never had such a good experience getting my nails done and will definitely be coming back if I ever need more fancy nail art done. Also she took some cute photos for me :)
Talented very sweet nail techs but you WILL have to wait. Whether or not you have an appointment. I’ve been here twice in the morning for my appointments and both times not only was the shop not open upon arrival but I had to wait past way beyond my set time. If you have somewhere to be or thinking of a quick last minute service go somewhere else. If you have the time and patience it’ll be worth your wait.
The best manicure and pedicure I’ve had in a long time. I work a lot and I called Violet to fit me in before close and she made it happen. So sweet and welcoming. Bray did a great job on my pedicure and l will be returning. 😊
The woman with the locs did my nails, she rushed on them did not follow what i asked for and when i told her my nail was crooked she did not fix it. I came back the next day so she could fix it she did not even apologize or try to fix my nail she just dismissed me and said come back tomorrow she is full. the people at the front did nothing to help the situation instead they dismissed me as well and told me there were people in front of me and i had to wait. i asked how long do they think the wait would be and none of them answered me. Tomorrow is my birthday and i’m just really so angry and disappointed. I will be calling my bank to get a refund.
Absolutely loved my visit! Everyone is super nice and sweet. They have a lot of great styles and I got a free gift for my first visit!!! Absolutely great place.
I went to Violet Nails on Gaines Street in Tallahassee for the first time yesterday. I was blown away by the amazing customer service! Violet herself did my manicure and her husband did my pedicure. The level of courtesy and care that they put into how they treat their clientele is unmatched by any other nail salon in Tallahassee. Within five minutes of sitting at her table, you’ll feel like Violet is an old friend that you’ve known for years. They take such great pride in how they treat their customers and their work. I will certainly be coming back, and be recommending this nail salon to all of my family and friends! Thanks again, Violet, for the great experience! (Oh, and their work is amazing too, not just their service lol).
Just don’t go to violet nail salon. You’ll save so much time. I’ve given violet nail salon chances after chances and they always fail to provide quality services. But when I wasn’t helped after being seated for over 30 min, that was the last straw for me. They kept servicing people who came way after me, completely disregarded my time. I will not be coming back here. Don’t get me started on how the last time I was here, the nail Tec completely botched my nails.
I was a walk-in customer asking for regular pedicure and manicure. I waited for an hour, they took another walk-in before me who came in 30 minutes after me. I asked for French pedicure, the man applied no base coat, the normal clear or pink, and was confused when I asked for one. There was a girl that came in for an appt, and they took a walk-in before her, she waited for 40 minutes past her spot. I stopped the French pedicure and asked for solid white. In 10 years of getting pedicures I have never had someone do only one coat of color polish, especially white. I decided against the manicure and asked them to just removed the gel polish from my regular nails. I had to scrape a lot off still when washing my hands. When I was checking out they attempted to charge me 10 dollars over, getting me confused with another customer, even though it was my mail tech checking me out. Children with kids TV playing loud behind the relaxing music. Not a great experience. My nail tech seemed genuine and sweet when communicating with me, just a very disorganized and slightly stressful environment.
This is honestly the worst nail salon I’ve ever been too. They do not take appointments and the wait is long. They will just tell you to walk in. I went for a pedicure my water was cold not even warm. I had to ask 3 times for hot water. They did not ask me what pedi I wanted he just tried to pick for me. I had to ask to see a pamphlet of the services they offered so I could pick my own pedi. Then the polish chipped the next day.
Came into Violet Nails as a walk in to get a pedicure since it was near me and I didn’t have time to go to my usual spot, that was my mistake. My pedicure felt rushed and my gel polish isn’t evenly coated. Didn’t get a menu of services they offer for pedicures. Maybe I just came in on a bad day? I’m not sure but it wasn’t worth $45. The upside is the salon is clean and I’m sure they do fantastic work. I saw some girls in there and their nails looked great. However, I’m disappointed it was rushed. If it was an issue of being a walk in and having another client, I could have waited.
I went to Violet’s Nail Salon and Spa and received EXCELLENT service. Violet and Ben were very friendly and I love the ambiance of the place. Violet was very welcoming and she even stayed late to service us with no problems. She made sure I was satisfied with my experience and she matched the picture almost identical to my nails. Ben made sure my nails were cleaned, shaped, and prepped perfectly! I will definitely be taking the extra 45 mins to go to my new nail place.
Needed to get a pedicure and this place was open near my house. This was THE WORST, fastest pedicure I’ve ever gotten! I had to ask the guy was he eve going to rub my feet. Everything felt rushed the water was already ran when I got to the chair, had no say on how hot I wanted it, he was done in like 15 minutes and to top it off the polish is peeling two days later. Will never come back here.
I absolutely love going to see Violet at Violet nails. I am very particular and picky, and she exceeds my expectations every time. The quality is amazing and she is very professional. She is meticulous and that makes her valuable to me.
Violet is beyond amazing and skilled in doing nails. She is so sweet when you really grow a connection with her!! She is the absolute best and patient with her customer and this is coming from someone who switches the colors so much right before getting them done. I am thankful for violet in my life🥰🥰🤍🤍
I love Violet! The maní pedi I got was immaculate. She has colors for days and always ordering more. The interior design is lovely. All the employees are professional and very talented. Theres juice and candy too!
Best nail salon in Tallahassee! Violet was kind patient and took her time, she paid attention to every detail And now my nails look amazing! My nails were ruined by another nail salon, So when I came in and showed Violet, she took her time to redo my nails and made sure I loved them before I left her chair. Shes definitely someone that cares for her customers I will for sure be back!
I got my nails done here with gel and it was really good and great price. My sister on the other hand got a full set and it turned out AWFUL. I could have done better myself. It isn’t cleaned. There is nail polish all over her nail. It took the lady no time at all to do it and it shows how quick she was in the quality of the nail. Her nail is elevated. I’d definitely get my nails done with gel here again but never a full set.
The place was nice and big. They had enough staffing. I like the fact that I was able to walk in without an appt and not get turned around. The had secure measurements. I also like the fact that they had towels for you to wry your hands rather than napkins. My friend had an issue with her toe nail and they told her what it was and what to do. They are good! They even had a table with snacks, coffee and tea! The pedicure was really good, my feet are still soft as if it was yesterday!
Garbage!! Nails are different lengths and shapes, bubbles and nail powder in my nails.. She didnt not have me wash my hands before final steps.. Not sure of her name but stall 9..when I pointed out the shape she acted like she didnt understand, when I showed the cashier the bubbles and white powder in my nails he made out like it was normal.. Would give negative stars if I could... Absolute garbage
Loving this and my new set!! They did amazing on mine and my moms sets
It was just ok. My nails don’t look the best they ever looked but the look decent. Very expensive compared to other places I have been.
Violet takes her time and makes sure the shape is perfect the colors are on point. I love the environment the energy. So far my favorite nail place
They charge too much for poor quality nails and they didnt do a very good job of fixing mistakes. I wouldnt recommend this place to anyone.
They are very friendly ...: they did a great job on my nails .. eyelashes... and eyebrows ...:. I would really recommend going to them.. I will be coming back .!! Great service..: very nice ..: so professional...::
They do a great job with nails and designs, but I have never been to a salon that is so overpriced. Well, let me rephrase that; they provide the details on prices, but who charges $10 for shaping someones nails? I went in for a set and paid $95 and I am still confused on what they did for it to get to that price. I went in recently for a FILL and when I asked the guy fills are $20 and a cut down is $3 right? he agreed with me and then charged me $41 at the end because $20 for a fill, $3 for a cut down for each hand, and then $15 for adding paint to my nails . . . paint. I will not be going back, but hopefully this information is useful for somebody.
The atmosphere is so relaxing! Their work is impeccable above all other nail shops. I’ve been using them for a year now and each time I am left satisfied! This should be YOUR nail spot!!!!!
Clean and professional definitely will come back if Im in the area again
Got exactly what I asked for. Wide variety of colors and design. Violet did my nails and she killed this look. I’m very pleased 🥰 Very professional. I will definitely be coming back.
I walked out with beautiful nails, and Violet painted the design I asked for. But, do not come here without an appointment. And, definitely do not come here, if you are in a hurry. That was the longest time I have ever spent in a nail salon. The gentleman nail tech, did what seemed to be side work, in between the steps of my pedicure. It was so bizzar. I was in the shop from 11:00am-2:00pm. They started on my pedicure, at 11:20am.I felt like Lorain, in an episode of Seinfeld...I did not have an appointment, so I just went with it. Also....I did leave with very pretty fingernails and toenails.
I wanted to get a new set so i called to make sure i could still come in since they closed at six and i got out of work around 5:30. They called and said i could come in after six because they were so busy. i came around 6:15 to where they took me in and immediately started working. i told Violet the concept of what i wanted but told her ultimately she could do whatever as long as she followed the color pattern i wanted. she worked quickly and efficiently and in the end i loved the outcome. she even stayed late to make sure everything came out perfectly. definitely my favorite set to date 💙
They are so sweet and have great customer service. 10/10 I really do recommend going there I look forward to going back.
Violet is such a sweet heart! she us great at what she does! my nails are perfect everytime :-)
I am in LOOOOOOVVVVVEEEEE with Violet Nails. Every time I go Violet and her husband both always give me the works and make me feel so comfortable. If you like your nails long, with all kinds of designs, and looking bomb... THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE 🥰
Me and my daughter got pedicures and also got our nails done. We couldnt be happier with the service. They did a amazing job and were very friendly and professional. We will definitely be back!
I loved going to this place. Violet, the owner, was so nice and super sweet. They had free drinks and candy for customers. Violet is also super talented. My nails look amazing. I am definitely going back.
Worst nail experience I’ve ever had. My natural nails are very strong and I just get gel on top but always keep them long. The man that did my nails filed my natural nails down with some electric drill rather than soaking my gel polish off and my strong nails that never break became paper thin and bending. I haven’t a nail break in probably over 6 months before this but less than a week after getting my nails done here three of my nails have already broken to the point where they’re bleeding and all the other nails feel like they’re about to break. He also burned me and the woman next to me with the drill and was switching between us between steps. Do not go here
Violet was so sweet and did a great job on my gel manicure and pedicure!
First off, today was my birthday and these nails were by far the BEST acrylics I’ve had! Ms.Violet took such good care of me and when I showed her the look I wanted, she said went over and beyond to make sure I got exactly what I asked (and it was even better than the original)!! Absolutely love this place and the quality and service makes it 10x better!
Violet is a wonderful Nail Tech to have. She knows her stuff. She can do any and everything that you asked of her. She knows how to do all Designs Plus more and have your hands looking beautiful. I would recommend anyone to her establishment because its clean sanitary and a very warm welcoming. Im sure everybody that comes their leaves with a smile on their face.
My favorite place to go! such sweet and professional people 🤍
Mrs. Violet did an awesome job on my medicine and Ben did an awesome job on my pedicure they will be seeing me again I only want them for now on.
Violet is a top-notch nail tech. Violet Salon is her business but doing nails is her passion. I’ve been getting my nails done for about 20 years now and after almost 20 years- she’s the BEST I’ve ever had. 💅🏼Very good service and a friendly environment. Definitely, will be back again. 😊
Me and my friend did a walk in with 2 full sets, the wait was a little long but not bad considering they were pretty busy. Heather and mai were both lovely and did a wonderful job. I got a pretty simple set but by looking at their instagram it looks like they can do pretty much any design. Definitely coming back!
I went into Violet Nails at the suggestion of a friend. I got a pedicure and a dip manicure. I came in with acrylic nails that I wanted soaked off. They actually took the time to soak them, unlike other places that Ive been to where they will crack and rip my nails off. Violet did my dip nails and they are amazing. She is a perfectionist and it shows in her work. Along with being a great nail artist, she is an amazing person to be around. She is funny and nice and caring. I was really worried that my nails would be ruined under the acrylics and I would have have them chopped off and super short. Violet was able to keep my nails long and healthy. Honestly, Ive never had dip power done so well and my natural nails shaped how I want them. For my whole service it was only $75, which to me is an amazing deal seeing as how much care went into my nails. I will absolutely be coming back to see Violet.
This was my first time EVER walking out of a nail salon MID service. Violet nails USUALLY provides great service, but I am not sure why the ball was dropped today. Maybe it was the fact that the techs were too busy arguing among each other to provide adequate service😕. One patron even said they were arguing for about an hr before I came.I dont believe that I will be returning after my experience, especially since I waited for an hour and 30 mins with acetone on my nails before deciding to just leave (paid for my pedi).
Got the cutest nails done. Love love love them. Ask for Violet
This is my favorite place to get my nails done. everyone is so kind and truly cares that you are happy with your service. I love getting my nails done with Violet! she is super talented and takes amazing care of you & your nails. every time i get my nails done here it is amazing quality, fair price, and i get so many compliments. if you are looking for a consistent nail technician that is able to do designs and cares that you are a happy customer get your nails done with Violet!!!
Amazing!! Copied the image of the nail design I wanted perfectly
Whenever I go to violet its an amazing experience, the customer service is always on point!
Very fast service! & Attentive.
Violet nails are where it at !!!! They are so professional and they are are great at what they do, they took me in as the last appointment even though it’s was almost time for them to close ! And I am really thankful for them they did an awesome job on my nails and gave me exactly what I wanted! You all should go there !
My girlfriend and her daughter had a wonderful day felt like they were treated like royalty
Violet was so sweet! I came in for a fill from a previous salon and LOVE my new nails that she did! She provided a much better experience and beautiful quality. I can’t wait to come back again :)
Violet went above and beyond and absolutely crushed my nails! She made them look even better than the inspiration picture i brought in and i can’t wait till my next set
Violet nails always does so well when I come to their salon!! Highly recommended especially if you are someone who gets designs.
The acrylic nail quality is not good and they tend to fall off after a week. Kind people though.
Violet was absolutely AMAZING!! She did a great job on my nails! Shape and color is outstanding!!! Recommend 10/10
The absolute best! Me and my roommate were walk ins and they did not make us wait long at all! They did such a good job on my nails and they do super good designs! They pay very close attention to detail!! Definitely my new favorite nail place in tally! -Hannah & Violeta
Poor quality products. Already went into get my nails fixed once because I paid 5$ extra for their gel matte black and the matte did not even last a full night without bubbling and then preceding to peel off. Just got them redone and it is already happening again, but I will not be returning again to waste more of my time.
I lovvvvee Violet! Violet is the best nail tech I’ve encountered. She’s so nice and does a great job every time I get a manicure and pedicure. She takes her time and makes sure that you’re satisfied. Everyone else in the shop is nice too.
It is a great atmosphere! Violet is such a sweetheart and an extremely talented artist. I love coming here and all the compliments I received on my nails.
Violet nails not only has a great environment but excellent customer service and outstanding nail artist… In my opinion they are the best in Tallahassee especially Violet the salons Owner I recommend this Business To anyone and everyone
Violet did an amazing job on my nails and made sure everything was perfect! Ive been going to another shop for years and I wont be going there anymore...this is now my spot! It was so refreshing to be treated with so much kindness and professionalism and the end result exceeded my expectations.
Received a bomb long full cheetah design set. Everyone loves my nails! Highly recommend coming here! See you all next time Im in town.
I love them!! They have very good customer service & will fix it if youre not satisfied with anything. DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED 💙
I love coming to this nail salon . They are the only nail salon I come to. They satisfied all your needs and make your nails look pretty 😍. I am very close with the owners of the salon and they are so sweet and take really good care of me and their customers
I got my nails done two days ago. I understand being quick but this Shellac fill in was done in 30 minutes and now I have two chipped nails. Very very disappointed. Live 3 hours from here. The tech was in the biggest hurry.
I had set up an appointment with Violet for 5:30 PM. This was my very first time going to this salon, and I was excited to get my nails done after a bad experience at another local spot (Do NOT!!! get Pam at Millenium at Bannerman) left my cuticles raw for a week. I arrived at the salon at 5:27, sat up front... and proceeded to wait for 30-40 minutes. Was not greeted or acknowledged by anyone the entire time I was there, and I sat directly in front of the reception desk. I saw a lady finishing up with a client, so I thought I was going to be able to ask about my appointment once she came up to cash her client out... instead, she immediately goes to another girl and begins to start on her nails. Checked my phone, saw it was 6 PM, and left. I had parked my car far down the street, too, so I wasnt even able to leave the area till 6:14. Ive never been treated like that before at a nail salon, and it felt horrible.Going to try different locations for now before going back to Violets Nail Spa. I just cant believe that happened to me.
Such genuine people there, the service was great & i love my nails 🥰
I got a full set with gel polish the other day and it looks and feels fantastic. Ben did my nails, he made sure I was happy with what he was doing every step of the way, and was very polite when we spoke. I would go here again and I would ask for the same person.
Violet is absolutely the BEST! Have gotten gel manicures a few times from here and they always last me 3-4 WEEKS without chipping. Go here- you will not regret!
I am 99% sure my LV luggage tag was stolen off my purse when he ask me to go wash my hands. I did not go anywhere else that day and it couldn’t fall off. I called and asked if they had video cameras in the store and I got the run around. Never step foot in there again! Watch your purse!
The best would definitely recommend
