I'm obsessed with my recent set of nails! I have been going here for a while, and I've never had an issue with any previous sets. This most recent has to be my favorite. A lady named Dy did my nails, and she is a straight ARTIST! She was making sure the set was symmetrical (left and right hand) and the length was exactly the same. I want Dy doing my nails every time!! Obsessed with APPLE NAILS! Edited to add most recent Spooky Season Nails!!! read more

Apple Nails - Looks like when I do my own nails! Not professional and paid $46 plus tip. - Nail Salons Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

This is my favorite nail salon in Lexington! They always do a good job on my nails, the staff is friendly, and there are a lot of options for manicures and pedicures that can make it more or less expensive depending on what services you're needing. I got the signature spa pedi with gel polish and it was a great experience. They used hot stones, wrapped my legs in hot towels, and gave a nice foot massage. The staff was very knowledgeable and taught me a few things about at home nail care and foot care. I attached a picture of my manicure below... I am very happy with how it turned out. All good vibes here! read more

I always schedule an appointment but more often than not, the nail tech is busy with someone else and I still end up waiting 30+ minutes. In addition, Bill (owner) can be a little rude on phone sometimes. I feel like I overlook these complaints most of the time but I hate lateness. Yesterday I chose Opi Dutch Tulips SNS but it didn't look exactly the same and I asked several times. This is where there is some language barrier with some nail techs because I never got a straight answer. Finally, once she was almost done, I saw that she had applied Cajun Shrimp, not Dutch Tulips. I asked again and was finally told that it's popular and close to my chosen color. She never said they didn't have my shade in and and never asked if the alternate color was acceptable. Maybe it wouldn't have mattered so much if I hadn't waited 45 minutes for my "appointment". Maybe the appointment thing wouldn't have mattered so much if she had asked if a substitute color was acceptable. Overall, I didn't want to waste more time starting over so I paid and left- maybe for the last time. Disappointing. read more

This was my first time back since March 2020 and I am usually a regular monthly customer. I was pleased with their COVID-19 prevention measures. All customers are to wear a mask, temp is taken upon arrival, and you are asked to sanitize your hands. The seating area has been reconfigured to better separate staff and customers. There is plexi-glass between the staff and customer. Customers are not seated together unless they came in together. It appears they have expanded their space in order to accommodate the safety precautions. As always a great manicure too. Go for the SNS and make an appointment! read more

Terrible experience here. I told my nail tech I don't think these nails should not be see through. The nail tech next to him told me this shade is always see through. I told her that I've gotten lighter colors and I've never had see through nails. She then told me to google this shade and specific brand. So of course I did and showed her that none of these photos have seen through nails. The shape of the nails are also awful. Come at your own discretion read more

Apple Nails - Asked for coffin nail shape and these are uneven and square. Note my nails being see though - Nail Salons Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

Drive over an hour just to come here for the past 4 years. I stopped for a while due bad service after covid. When appointment is made, the person I request is never the one I get. And god forbid your 6 minutes late on a Thursday in the middle of the day... you definitely won't get who you want. The reason an appointment is made to begin with is because SNS will lift, shape is horrible and certain techs just aren't good. read more

While our group of three were grateful of this establishment being open on the day observed for the 4th of July, it was a big mistake. We called ahead of time and asked if they had availability for walk ins, the response was "yes, come right over". We were en route and about 10 minutes away so I suggested we provide a name to put on the list to reserve. He was reluctant, but agreed to it. Upon arrival they did not have my name written down and we still waited 20-25 mins for service. They assumed we only wanted a polish change instead of full manicures, as originally requested. The paraffin was a fun touch, but I am more concerned about why my nails have began to crack, less than 5 hours from getting them done. This establishment had poor communication with us and subpar service. I can say the location was clean, but that was the only pro. Very disappointing. read more

I hate giving bad reviews... The lady who did my nails was very nice and did a good job with my nails. However within 5 days of getting them done, on my right hand my index and middle finger nails had a crack in the nails. I've never had this happen before. Then day 7 of having them done the middle finger nail snapped where the crack was. So I'm not happy about this especially having to drive 45 minutes just to get to this salon. Why are the nails cracking in the first place??? It was just very weird for me. read more

I recently came in last Friday for a full set of acrylics, the person who did my nails was rough and messed up a nail and didn't even fix it. less than two days of me getting them done they began to crack and break.. this isn't my first shitty nail set from them, their always rough and never get close to the design or even the shape. i ask for square every time and they give me coffin then charge me 95 dollars for shitty nails. THIS WILL BE MY LAST SET WITH THEM. read more

I'm not really the type to write bad reviews or even complain but I had a very bad experience here and I think it's worth warning others over. I came in for a pedicure and Lizzy was the one who worked on me. She cut my toe with the nail file, enough to break the skin. Annoying, but I let it go because she seemed inexperienced and accidents happen. I should've known to walk out then but I'm generally a patient person. However, she then burned me with a hot stone and seemed to not understand that the fact she was wearing gloves is the reason why the stone didn't feel too hot to her. The owner was nice about it but they seemed to downplay the situation and the other tech that came to wash the lotion off my legs kept saying "you're okay" and laughing about it. It was upsetting and really embarrassing to be upset and crying in public and then treated like it wasn't a big deal. I'm in the waiting room at Urgent Care to be treated for the burn as I write this. It's not okay, your employee hurt me, twice, and badly enough that I need to seek medical attention. Unacceptable, and to suggest that I got cut and burned because I have "sensitive skin" and not because you have a poorly trained employee just shows this business refuses to accept accountability. Sensitive skin isn't more prone to being cut, ridiculous. read more

Got a gel manicure here and the woman didn't even push my cuticles back so the polish was all over my skin and cuticles and chipped right after I left. The polish was done sloppily and didn't cover most of my nails entirely. Lots of bubbles too. Fairly disappointing as this was the manicure I had when I got engaged my nails chipped significantly within a few days. read more

This was definitely one of my most disappointing visits to a nail shop. I was made to wait a much longer time than most places. When I got to the chair for a pedicure, that took a long time as well for someone to start my pedicure. Before the person started my pedicure I said I wanted designs. At the end of the pedicure I was told my technician did not do designs and would have to wait another 30 minutes before someone would be available. I declined. The customer service at this location has diminished. I understand they are busy, but you should never be too busy to provide at least decent customer service. read more

This nail salon was absolutely amazing. Very big fan. This was my first time here. And I was treated so well. I went to a different salon in Lex that totally jacked up my nails, cut me multiple times, filed my real nails down so thin they hurt. Apple Nails redid this nail job that the other people messed up. And they did it beautifully. They were so careful with the cuts on my fingers from the other place. I'm really super pleased with the nail care I received. It's was 42 dollars for a full set with Gel. I don't think that's unreasonable. You truly do get what you pay for. read more

Apple Nails - Acrylic coffin nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

I love this salon. You can tell a good salon when they are busy. And, they are booming! Appointment is recommended. I love SNS. My nails are always to my specifications. (I don't like thick fake looking nails.) The shapes are even and look great. The finish is smooth and even. I highly recommend using Apple Nails for your needs. I am from another state and I don't give 5 stars easily. Even though I reside in WV, I get my nails done at this specific salon while here for work. Even the tech that did my nails while I was in FL on vacation complimented the work of this salon no less than 4 times while doing my fill. read more

Not happy at all. Asked for gel nails with tip and paid 30 and all I got was a paraffin dip, NO MASSAGE, NO CUTICLE DIP, and buffing/trimming of my nails along with a clear polish. My other two friends actually got nails and paid the same price. Super pissed, felt like I just gave them a donation. Not to mention while I was there the police were called because ANOTHER woman didn't get what she asked for!! I just paid and left. I will never be back and they will never get my money again! Posted below is what I got for $30! read more

I have recently been I would say salon shopping , I've went to a few places an just not been happy !

He told me to come back an they would fix them ! I came in on Friday , and a girl name Molly helped me ! I was hesitant at first but walking out , I'm in love ! I will definitely be returning ! read more

Apple Nails - SNS by Linda at Apple Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

Best place in town! All the staff are great! I am always treated like a queen here. They use 100% sterilized tools, the foot massages are great. This is the only place in Lexington to do the SNS color correctly. SNS last more than two weeks and stays shiny. There is no LED light required, and it is better for your nails than gel (I've done my research!) I love getting a pedicure and then the SNS nail color on my fingernails. The price is right - to get quality nail care, come here! I don't go anywhere else. I have paid less in the past but what I got was not as good as at Apple Nails. The salon is always clean, the chairs are comfortable, and the big bowl of candy on the front counter always lures me in. Thanks Apple Nails! read more

Apple Nails - Pedicure time! - Nail Salons Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

I have been going to Apple Nails consistently for a year and a half now. I have been extremely happy with 90% of my service here. If you're extremely picky like me, it takes some time to find someone you love. My advice is stick with that person, and always make an appointment! Bill is wonderful, and I have been seeing Linda for a few months now and she is amazing as well. They have a great selection of SNS (which is what they're known for), but also of gel and regular nail polish colors as well. I am a huge fan of the SNS, and will try and sell it to anyone!! Also, their pedicures are great. I have had 4 or 5 here, and will continue to come here for them. I recently went to a spa in Lexington, and it didn't come close to the service I have gotten here at Apple Nails. My biggest advice is call ahead or make an appointment. I think it says a lot for an institution to always have a wait- it means they're doing something right! read more

Apple nails is the best!! I am so incredibly impressed by this salon. Eva is such a wonderful woman and answered every question I had for. I walked in with an appointment and got seated right away. Eva came over and was very kind, she answered every question I had about a specific design I was wanting on my nails. She informed right away of the price and made sure it was ok with me so I wouldn't be surprised of anything at the end. What I appreciate the most was she took her time and was very meticulous about every nail. She agreed with every suggestion or remark I made which we all know some can be a little fiesty. She was in no rush and made sure I was fully satisfied with my nails before leaving. GIVE EVA A RAISE. 10/10 will be coming back. read more

Apple Nails - SNS nails board 17 number 3 - Nail Salons Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

Some of the workers are rude. I went to get a touch up on my acrylics, and the person doing my nails was very rude and annoyed from the moment I was there. I asked for assistance in finding the matching color and he simply told me that "there's too many colors" and was of NO ASSISTANCE. I picked the color and asked if it was the same and he still said he wasn't completely sure. Instead of assisting me he painted my nails. The color was different so I asked if I could maybe do a design, and he refused. I was willing to pay and I was a customer before, but I'll never be going again. Unprofessional and rude. read more

Got a Signature Spa today as I have bad callouses. It was so great and Laura was AMAZING!! I definitely would recommend asking for her as she was detailed, thorough and took the time to massage and scrub my feet. She was honest when saying that I didn't need to do my hands as they were slightly chipped. She could have suggested for me to have it done again, but she didn't! So happy with the service read more

I went in on a Friday afternoon (after calling ahead) for a SNS manicure and a pedicure and they were very busy but I only had to wait a couple minutes before they called me to start my manicure. Kim gave me a lovely manicure (and she has done my nails once since my first visit) and did a beautiful job on my cuticles and applied the SNS perfectly. I was promptly moved to a pedicure chair while my nails were drying and another sweet woman gave me a delightful pedicure (I needed it, and I'm ticklish) I was asked if I would like a water or something to drink, every employee is kind and friendly, all surfaces and tools are clean and kept in UV sterilizers, and they have a cabinet of soft white towels to use when you wash your hands. I would definitely recommend calling ahead just in case they are busy! read more

Apple Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

Typically this is my favorite nail place but i do not recommend David or Bill touching your nails. I'm sure they mean well but they don't listen and clearly doesn't matter if you're unhappy with your nails because you're set with them. I've learned to speak up before getting too far in my nails so that i'm not unhappy, but they didn't listen to anything i said. David switched where Bill started doing my nails and he just didn't care. He was super rough with my hands and i left with the powder (with top coat set on it) with the color still on the skin of my nails. Cuts because he was careless. And he made pretty much no effort to fixing the original issue of the shape of my nails. Overall, just wouldn't recommend them to do your nails. But most of the ladies are wonderful! read more

I have been a loyal customer for years. Recently, they did my SNS so thin that they started cracking within 2 days. I went back to get them fixed. Not only did they charge me but they acted so annoyed that they absolutely destroyed 2 of my cuticles with their drill because they were in such a hurry and so careless. I will be finding a new salon. Ridiculous. read more

Apple Nails - Cuticle damage - Nail Salons Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

Bill is a terrible representation of what customer service should be. After a bumpy lumpy service which he needed to correct he jerked, pulled, shoved and pushed in my hands out of anger. I became very upset with him and expressed my feelings. He continued to jerk on them. I had been with them for quite sometime and was in shock that he behaved in such a way. A familiar nail tech approached me to apologize for his behavior and related to me that there have been others who he had done this to. No excuse Bill!! I brought you repeated business, friends and family. No more!!! read more
