Got a pedicure and notice that nit once was the pedicure plastic bags where changed or the tools used were in a new bag either. Thos is how ppl get fungus and that is not ok. read more

I do not understand the hate for this salon. I went today for a manicure and Vickie did a wonderful job. The place is clean, the service fast, and the nail techs are all very nice. Every time I have been there I have had a good experience. read more

If only zero stars was an option. They do an okay job with the nails however, their customer service is awful. I made an appointment and had to leave without getting my nails done because I was just waiting. I'm not sure what the point of an appointment really is here. read more

Over priced - Bad design - Worse quality - no refunds? I just needed a fill. I asked for orange tips and had a reference photo. Instead Ty painted my nails with this awful green magnet polish - I told her I didn't like the color she had me pick a new one. I told her I wanted the orange I picked out. She kept painting what she wanted. I said screw it, a fill only lasts me 2-3 weeks I can deal with ugly nails. But when all my nails are lifting less than 20 hours later I have a problem. I called and they asked me to come in. I asked for a refund but she said she could fix it. I don't have 3 hours on a Tuesday morning for her "fix" them. I asked for a refund multiple times and was told no. So warning spend $100 on a fill with a design you didn't ask for and in less than a day they'll all start coming up. read more

Took my daughters in for nails for my oldest's 16th birthday. She wanted acrylics and my younger daughter and I got pedi's. Thankfully they got us right in since we had limited time. Our pedi's were as expected. My daughters acrylics looked fine, but when we got on the road she said "I wish I was bolder and I would have had them fix one". She had asked for pink tips and one of the tips was painted way off to the side. We could have had them fix it, but by the time she said it we were too far and needed to keep going. Basically, not our first choice (they were closed) but did fine in a pinch. read more

Ty did my pedi in 15 minutes. No soap in the water. Didn't soak my feet. Didn't rub the lotion into my legs. When I asked her to she took a towel and wiped the lotion off. Total bogus service today. Very disappointed read more

I went one time about 1/2 hour from closing so when my toenail polish chipped after less than a week I figured they were in a rush my fault. I went back yesterday in the middle of the day woke up the AM and there is a chip on one of my toenails less than 24 hours later. No thanks. read more

went to this establishment tonight to treat my mother to a pedicure for her birthday, while i got a manicure. i did not realize until leaving that we showed up a little over an hour before they closed. however, that will never be an excuse for poor service. we were basically rushed out of the building. i got a gel manicure with a very simple swirly line design, and it is HORRIBLE work. the lines are smudged and not the same width throughout. my tech, linda, redid a few nails but spent most of my appointment laughing in my face and giggling about her mistakes. i left extremely unsatisfied and it was very clear to all of the staff. also, before the top coat was even put on my nails, the tech working on my mother decided to come sit across from me and ask for the payment over and over and over. this seemed EXTREMELY unprofessional and it was very clear that we were not welcome. this is my hometown and i am visiting for the holiday and its so disappointing to see what the service places in this town have come to. do better. read more

I came to this salon for the first time this week and it was not what I was expecting. I got a regular manicure and the gel polish on my toes changed. My manicure was rushed my my left index finger was cut open. For my polish I got French tip gel and had red gel on previously, my red polish was not removed fully and I can see it under my new polish, when she was removing the previous gel she cut multiple of my toes and the shaping job was horrible. I should have done more research before choosing a nail salon in this area. read more

Best nail salon in the Alton/Godfrey area. I don't need to get my nails done often but when I do they can fit me in. As far as attention to detail they are also #1 for the area. I make sure to tip well because of that too. I will also dote on the pedicures and gel nail polish. They will definitely set you up for those summer sandals! read more

Beautiful Nails - Pedi! - Nail Salons Near Me - Godfrey, Illinois

They killed it with my nails. I literally got exactly what I asked for and it was amazing! My nail tech was super friendly and I was pleasantly surprised with how good of a value the gel manicure was. read more

My dipped nails did not last 1 1/2wk. 3 have chipped badly. My Tech spent most of her time with me carrying on a conversation (in Vietnamese) with a coworker. I am going back to Le Nails in Jerseyville even though I just moved around the corner from this salon and had heard so many positive things about them. Was not at all impressed. Also, they were more expensive than what I have been used to. read more

With the exception of a few visits, I am very happy with the end product with Beautiful Nails. Clean. Quiet. Most of the time, quick. I go here regularly. They also accommodate my 4 year old daughter when she comes with me - paint her nails while mine are soaking. read more

Overpriced and terrible service. I had a nice massage with my pedicure but when I got home I thought all of my toes were bleeding. They weren't, it was actually my old red polish that hadn't been fully removed. My daughter had her nails painted and the polish was horrendous. They did offer to fix it and just pained right over them. They were so lumpy at that point we took her to another local salon to fix them and they couldn't believe how bad they were. We spent almost $200 in services that day and was treated horribly when we addressed it with them. read more

I have been going to other nail salons that took 3 hrs for a manicure and pedicure. My daughter, who gets her nails done often told me about BEAUTIFUL NAILS. It was my second time in going today. These ppl are so fast, knowledgeable, well., just amazing !!!!, please try them out. you won't regret it !!! read more

I went here for an acrylic removal and gel manicure. Prices are great. Very organized. Everyone was friendly and nice, and were very gentle on the nails. They have an excellent selection for colors and is quite beautiful and spacious inside the salon. I would definitely recommend coming here! I read the reviews and the bad ones were mostly concerning pedicures, which I didn't get, but the manicures are excellent. Ask for Trang! read more

update, 7/26/21 i came in almost a week and a half ago for a fill in and gel pedicure, no complaints on the nails as usual, i used to always get pedicures here as well but after my last experience on 7/16/21 i will not be getting pedicures here anymore, i got a smoothing pedi and she was rushing my feet in and out of the water, i felt like i was riding a bike LMAO, barely let them soak at first like they usually did, i set my feet in and roughly 1 minute later she was back to start, she took 21 minutes total on my gel polish smoothing pedicure. (rushing)?? On average it usually took them 30-40 minutes every previous time i've gotten a pedicure here, i left with lotion still not rubbed all the way into my legs either, i had white lotion streaks. (rushing). my polish is already beginning to chip off on two toes, which normally, does not chip until the 4-5th week i have had the pedicure. she did well with my cuticles, i will give her that. my cuticles is all i will give her good credit for. i still tipped and just left. no more pedis for me here, only nails. read more

I have been going here for years. They are good people and always greet you by name. Great pedicures and nails! Very relaxing and enjoyable! read more

This was my first time visiting this location in a couple of years and I promise you, I won't be back. I was in the middle of getting my pedicure and the lady doing my toes asked me if I was getting my eyebrows done too because they looked so bad.... This was my one day off work to "treat myself" this week and I leave feeling worse about myself.. read more

Technically proficient. Beautiful, warm decor. Adjustable massage chair. Online RSVP with follow-up reminder. Basic services are reasonable priced - a combination pedi-manicure was only $36. However, there is an attempt for pedicure and manicure upsale as well as a wide-variety of products. Similar to other Asian run salons, the technicians are not talkative except to each other in a foreign language. It makes the experience cold and sterile.

I have always came here to get my nails done, and they have done an awesome job every time. That is until the last two times. I got a pedicure in May and they ended up giving me a toe infection. Then the last time I was there before Thanksgiving I received a manicure. Well when I got my manicure she used an electric buffering tool (I get regular polish every time) had no idea why she did that it took off the top layer of my real nail and hurt like hell. Then she just sloppily put on the polish. I will never be going back. read more

The place has been redone and looks great. Little princess chairs for little girl's pedicure. Prices are reasonable. I get gel nail polish, and they do a good job. read more

Wanted to try a new nail spot and decided to give Beautiful Nails a try. I didn't have an appointment and expected to wait a while (with it being a Saturday) but was seated within 10 minutes. The color choices were almost overwhelming but it was great that there were so many options. I was in and out within roughly 30 minutes, my nails look great and overall I'm super pleased with my manicure! Glad I decided to go. read more

Have been going here for many years and was pretty much satisfied. Recent visits have not been quite as good since the departure of nail technician "Penny" and her mother "Mary." They always went the extra mile. A couple of months ago when attempting to make an appointment I was told Penny was on vacation, only to find out when I got there that she and her mother had been "let go" because of complaints. I don't know where the complaints came from as Penny especially was always busy. When getting powder dip manicures recently, technician was too quick to file off old polish rather than soak off with acetone, which I didn't like since I have thin nails. I may be looking elsewhere after all these years unless things improve. read more

For a remedial pedicure experience, this is the place. I don't speak the language my pedicurist and her fellow employees do, but they were very clearly making fun of another customer that came in after me. That's rude. The pedicure wasn't anything to write home about, but their blatant disrespect for paying customers left a sour taste in my mouth. I'll stick to my normal salon for now on. read more

My mom and I went to have our nails done as a special treat and it was an absolutely horrible experience. My mom and i were both cut, the cuticle softening oil burned our hands and the upgraded pedicure waa a joke! We will never go back!! read more

My friend and I went in to get pedicures and were told that they wouldn't be able to help us because their pedicure chairs wouldn't be comfortable for us. If they discriminate to our faces, what are they saying about customers in their foreign tongues? Since we were denied service there, we went to Fancy Nails in Alton and received great customer service, which we rewarded with generous tips. read more

I have been coming here for years and never been more disappointed than now. I went in for a pedicure and the lady that did mine was on her phone more than anything. Glad I'm not on a time crunch today. read more

Beautiful nails is the closest nail salon so it's easy for my husband to grab a quick certificate so I've never told him not to buy me one there because I have had good results there at times & also bad results. Penny always did a great job & a couple of the other girls as well. However my visit there yesterday was the worst yet. Dip is already peeling. Now my husband knows not to ever waste our money or my time with this salon again. read more

If I could have negative stars I would. Deceitful practices. Asked for ombré dip as gel is extremely hard on nails. She dipped one nail and asked if it looked nice. It did. However, when continuing the "dip" process, it seemed like gel. I was told that mine were thick so I believed, incorrectly, that they did less "dips" for a more natural look. Wrong! They gave me gel nails. Which I realized when they had me put my nails under the uv light. When I returned home I still felt so deceived I called and complained aggressively. They told me to return and they would give me my money back. I returned and they expected me to allow them to soak off the nails she had put on me. No. I think not. I do not want them touching my hands again. And I might as well enjoy this while it lasts because my own nails will be ruined until they completely grow out. Do not go there. Do not trust them. Do not let your friends or family go there. Liars. read more

Great place to visit for manicures, pedicures, artificial nails, or waxing. Staff is very nice. Very relaxing and very professional. Options available to call ahead or walk in for service. If there is a wait, it's not long. The staff works hard to get to clients as quickly as possible. Always a great experience. read more

This is my regular place to go for manicures and pedicures. Have always been well satisfied because of their quick, well done manis and pedis. However, today I think I got a newby and it took over 2 hours for both; normally takes an hour. Plus I had to remind her to put the top coat on one hand of my gel manicure (which she insisted she did). I have also noticed lately that the place needs to be cleaned better (too much "nail dust" at the desks, etc) lately. I may be looking for a new salon soon... read more

I've been there three times for nails and two fills. The second visit was the only one I was pleased with. The first and last times, I was never asked what shape I would like for my nails; they just started shaping to their own liking. This last time, after the lady started shaping as SHE wanted instead of asking what I would like, I asked her if she would round them at the edges. She nodded almost imperceptibly and I could tell she was annoyed. I still was not pleased with the shape after she was finished. I also had brought my own nail color, and she tried to get me to choose another color because the color I brought was the same color she was removing from my nails and she didn't like how hard the color was to remove. Nice. More importantly, she sighed frequently and looked annoyed the entire time. I have made my last trip there. If they would rather be doing something else, when they lose all of their customers, they'll have that wish granted. read more
