Nails by Brian
Julie K.

Staff was friendly and attentive, I didn't feel ignored. Brian did an excellent job reshaping and filling my nails, and he was kind enough to take me last minute, without an appointment, almost at close. Will definitely return

I don't really understand the negative reviews but my GO-TO techs are Brian and Tina. Brian's my usual nail tech and he is super friendly, kind, and absolutely hilarious on top of his fabulous work. Although the prices are a little high in comparison to other salons, the talent of the workers here is outstanding.

Being a former nail tech myself, I didn't want just anyone doing my nails. I searched numerous nail salons in lake county for someone who created nails with great shape as well as design. The yelp photos were great, and I got exactly what I was hoping for with my own created design I brought in! Thank you Tina, you're amazing!

I enjoy going to this nail salon because they offer so many different nail techniques. I really love going here to get Dip Powder done. It is clean and they always do a great job on my nails. I think the prices are super reasonable and the Spa Pedicure is super relaxing. It is good to come during the week and if you do come on the weekends I recommend you make an appointment. Overall, I recommend this salon for their techniques.

Pedicure treatments. They also have package discounts.

Very clean and friendly. Being a mall location, prices are a bit higher than what you find at a stand-alone salon, but they have later hours than other places. They offer wine/water for free.

I come here every two weeks for my manicure with Venus and she is so awesome! I get compliments on my nails all of the time. She is definitely a gifted artist with her nails designs and she always has great ideas, which is nice because I'm so indecisive.

Three day old gel polish!

literally the worst nail shop in the world!! my sns didn't maintain the color within the first 24 hours; went back and this older lady tried to fix and it was an ever bigger failure!!! omg!!! two days later the gel on my big toe started to come up.. went back in to get it fixed and they acted as if it was a problem that i was back! i travel the country and this by far one of the worst nail salons ever! they shouldn't be offering services that they can't execute! i hate that i wasted my money and time at this below zero star nail shop! they should just close down!

I love this salon. I'm allergic to acrylic and this is one of the only places within 20 miles that will do IBD liquid gel nails. I had made an appointment and I was 15 min late. The place is a bit hard to find and if its your first time at this mall its going to be a bit impossible to find in under 5 min. But that's what makes it a hidden gem! Even though I was 15 min late, I was told to come back in 30 min and I would be seen. I came back in 25 min. I picked my color; I found what I wanted and was told to sit at one of the manicure tables. After sitting I had about a 1hr wait. I didn't mind the wait because I was late and it was totally my fault and there were people ahead of me. When it was finally my turn, my nail tech, Tina, gave me a free no chip color instead of the regular OPI colors (partially to apologize for the wait and as a first time customer special!) She did my liquid gels so quick and efficiently! This is the best set of gels I've ever had! I even got a hand massage after, most nail salon a don't do this I'd you don't come for a manicure! And the salon stayed open an hour after the mall closed in order to service me! I love this place, I love Tina, and I will definitely be back. This place has only been open 1 month, so they dont have many nail techs on staff yet, so because of that you will have a wait until they can hire more techs, but I recommend this place! Best service ever!

Nails were so bad. Literally crooked and pointy. They aren't smooth and they look like a 3 year old did them. DONT GO HERE

We scheduled a specific date two weeks out so they'd have time to prepare -- and they still only gave me an extra 10 minutes on top of a basic mani-pedi slot. No design. Rushed bare top coat instead of what I paid for. Went back the next day just to get it finished properly and got interrogated by a staff member with a nasty attitude instead of an apology. Asked for a sharp shape -- they only do almond, no matter how many times I repeated myself. Asked TEN TIMES to reinforce my nails since they were long and I was traveling. Ignored. Nine days later, two nails have already snapped -- one bleeding -- mid-trip, at the wedding, because they have zero understanding of nail structure. $180, two wasted appointments, zero customer service, zero skill. Go anywhere else. UPD: 11 days and 3 nails did break bleeding. My travel was ruined, I was in constant pain. Zero customer service. Zero product knowledge. Zero respect for their clients' time, plans, or money. Save yourself the $180 and the heartbreak.

We booked a couples massage in the cave, which cost an additional $70, and it was absolutely not worth the extra charge. The window faced a busy road, so all we could hear was traffic, along with construction noise coming from the room next door. There was also nowhere comfortable to relax afterward. To make matters worse, the headrest on my massage table broke, which affected my experience. For a 70-minute massage, I only received work on my shoulders, arms, and legs, with no back massage at all, even though my back was the area I needed the most attention. We were also told that water would be brought to us afterward, but it never arrived. Overall, the experience was disappointing and not at all what we expected, especially considering the additional cost. The only positive part of the experience was our masseuse, who was lovely. I hope they address these issues before welcoming more guests.
