I find they are staffed so well, there is no waiting. The nail technicians are always polite and efficient. I had both a pedicure and manicure today and walked out feeling great. Prices are fair as well. read more

the second time I came here and they didn't do a good job at all like The lady didn't get under my nails or on the sides of them at all and didn't massage my legs it felt more like her rubbing in lotion than massaging which was aggravating. This happened both times. read more

I left after spending $80 with an extremely rushed nail job (got there at 5pm they made me wait until they had to rush before closing). My pedicure coating is uneven. My manicure coating is uneven. The shape is nowhere close to what I asked for. The length is no where close to what I asked for. The color is no where close. Some fingers are darker in color due to uneven amounts of polish being applied to each nail. Overall extremely low quality nails. STAY AWAY FROM THIS NAIL SALON. TERRIBLE SERVICE!! Complete rush job after waiting for so long. read more

The owner is friendly and remembers you. I've always had good work. I suggest they give this place a good cleaning, the fans and wall decor thick with dust. The front door has cobwebs around the exit sign, the TV's etc... read more

I can speak Vietnamese but I don't look like I do. So I learned a lot. It wasn't positive. I gave two stars out of generosity. I just got a manicure. Didn't mind the shaping but the cuticle cut wasn't very good and the polish was sloppy. read more

I went a long time without getting acrylic nails thinking I was allergic due to an experience from another nail salon. I came here from a recommendation of a family friend. When I walked in, I was greeted and promptly seated. The entire experience was relaxing and pleasant. From sitting there many walked in that you could tell were regulars just by the interactions between staff, that's always a good sign. My nail lady did work fast but it was not rushed if that makes sense. It was 40$ for a full set French manicure. read more

Very rude and condescending. Never go here they charge ridiculously high prices and are always in a hurry. Worst customer service.

City Nails has been my Mother's choice for nail care since she discovered them. The staff is always super friendly and accommodating, and she always leaves satisfied with her nails. Some of their services include American and French manicures, glossy and gel nails, manicures, and more. I always make Mom happy with gift certificates I buy here. read more

City Nails - Located in Boulevard Center - Nail Salons Near Me - Lafayette, Louisiana

THESE ARE MY PEOPLE!!!! Love them! Here's the thing...they are awesome. They are friendly, kind, and genuinely happy to see you! My gel manicures always last. They are very meticulous and detail oriented. The only con is that if you pick a high traffic time to go, esp around holidays/weekends, you will have to wait. I try to be strategic about my times bc they will for sure take 45m-1hour for your gel mani. So worth it though. Love these people read more

i paid $70 for a mani pedi with a full set. the pedicure was nice! but my nails didn't turn out as good as i hoped. on my thumbs, the right nail is longer than the left, and the shape is messed up. i might as well have went to my usual spot if i would've known i would paid that much money! won't be coming back again read more

I've been getting my nails done her for about 15 years. Recently I tried a new place and I hated it. I love Mrs Pam and all the ladies that work at city nails and won't go anywhere else. read more

Whoever was wearing the Kim uniform had absolutely NO personality. She didn't apply the color evenly. She did not put any top coat. After I paid her and overtipped, she just left. read more

One of the best experiences I've had with mani/pedi! The lady was so sweet and she did an awesome job. The whole staff was very welcoming and helpful and they make sure that you leave with perfect nails! Will definitely be making this place my regular nail stop read more

City Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Lafayette, Louisiana

Found this place on Yelp and looked at the reviews to determine if I should try their nail services. This is a no nonsense nail joint, they have a huge team that is on standby the minute you walk in. No waiting!!! Love it and I had two girls working on me. I felt like I was back in NYC! I got a pedicure $25 and a shellac manicure which was $22, they advertise it a little different because it said gel tip- $12 but then I guess you add the "actual manicure" on it which was $10 so total $22. So be advised, their pricing is al la carte. I like the fact that both of them worked on me which gave me more time to relax at home instead of being at the nail salon longer. They have a 3 sided binder to choose your "gel/shellac color" it's fun but I wish it was the plastic nail display so you can but the try the color on top of your nail, some salons have this way of showing the colors you can choose from. The ladies took their time massaging the Lotion into my feet and hands! They didn't skip out... they girls took their time and worked it. It also looks like if you are regular you can store your own nail utensils. Highly recommend, let's see if the color stays! read more

My go to place. Always friendly, great atmosphere, they always remember who I am. They recently expanded the salon to make room for more customers. Sometimes there is a bit of a wait, usually in the evening, but they always move quick. My nails always last, they do a great job and all of the employees are super friendly. read more

I found out about City Nails through my dad, who gets his Brazilians done here. Just kidding. They don't do Brazilians, silly. I had a mani/pedi at City Nails and was very pleased with the results. They have their technique down and everything. They don't be tickling or nothing. And now it's been about 2 weeks and my feetsies still look like they just stepped out of a spa. If you are a regular here, you can get a box, which they store with your personal tools (hacksaws, sanders and what have you, depending on the severity of your situation). If I lived in Lafayette, this would be my regular nail spot for sure. read more

Awesome and super busy nail salon, even at 11 AM on a Thursday - go figure! This place was such a great find!! Their prices can't be beat, especially $12 for gel polish. If you need to book an appointment, ask for Hannah - she is the friendliest nail tech I've ever encountered. Her sister works there as well and is great too - book both of them if you go with someone else; they're hilarious together! The decor is modest and the size of the salon may be a bit small, but their prices and friendly service are the best and deserve 5 stars alone! It's located on Arnould Blvd across the street from Jason's Deli. I live out of town, but when I'm in Lafayette, this will be my go-to spot! read more

After walking into one salon and realizing they were charging $30 for gel polish/ shellac ... I browsed Yelp hoping to find another alternative. City Nails had only 1 review but I decided to stop by especially after I called and they said shellac polish was only $12! That's what I'm talking about!!! Music to my ear dear!! Hannah was so nice and friendly! I love being in the South around really hospitable people so this was a bonus!! She smiled and laughed as she worked and was very efficient. If you're in the area and need shellac or a smile, stop by!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Round of applause for my sweet Southern friends, by way of Vietnam. Great people are such a joy! read more

I absolutely recommend this salon!!! I've been coming here for years! My nails are always perfect and the pedicures are super thorough and relaxing! Over the last year or so they have expanded into the other business room that was on the side of them and they have doubled in size and staff! The waits are never long and they listen to what you want! Very professional and friendly!! Always my go to! read more

City Nails - My french tips by City Nails. - Nail Salons Near Me - Lafayette, Louisiana

So let me start by saying, that Nancy (who did my pedicure) was awesome and so sweet (Thank you, Nancy)! She paid GREAT attention to detail and even fixed my polish when I accidentally slipped out of my slipper and nicked one of my nails by accident. I didn't even ask her to! She saw it happen, and met me at the nail desk when I moved over with the polish color and top coat! I had a vastly different experience with my manicure. I decided I would pay the extra money and get dip nails. The nail tech that I got was Kelsey. I'm just going to come straight out and say, her attitude was awful! Two of my nails were shaped crooked and one was too pointed, so I asked if she could fix them, she did, but again her attitude was not great. As she was dipping my nails, she did so carelessly, flinging powder everywhere and intentionally clunking down the jars of powder when switching between the base and colored dip powders...a customer walked in the door (we were at the closest desk to the door), and told Kelsey she was there for an appointment, to which she replied, "Ok," like she couldn't care less and just left the customer standing there awkwardly until someone else was able to come and help her. One of my nails was not dipped as many times as the others, and so is the only non-opaque nail. I can see the dip powder grains, and my nail underneath it. The pedicure was worth the money ($30). The dip manicure was not, in my opinion ($50). My sister-in-law came with me, and got a full-set with regular polish on top ($45), the nail tech that did her nails was nice, but did not do a great job. Her nail polish was not too opaque on certain nails and had air bubbles on others. I don't get my nails done that often, but have always had good experiences at other places and left happy. I did not feel that way leaving here. read more

Excellent service! You walk in to a pleasant greeting from Pam and then immediately set to your mani or pedi experience. All the gals are great. Kelsey is my favorite. read more

City Nails - Inside city nails salon - Nail Salons Near Me - Lafayette, Louisiana

Great nail place. The ladies were all super nice and they give you the longest massage ever during the pedicure.

I just walked out of City Nails for the last time. Although they do a good job once you are in the chair, I have been frustrated over and over again with the way they handle appointments. Many times, I made an appointment with a particular technician only to arrive on time and find that person just beginning a service with another client. Rather than switching her with someone else so she could keep my appointment, the owners invariably reassured me that it would be "a few minutes" while she finished the walk-in instead of keeping the appointment. It was usually 30-45 minutes later before my service even began. I tried scheduling the first appointment of the day to avoid this problem. Nope -- on several occasions I have arrived for that time only to find the same problem. Today I had an 8:30 (I asked for 8:15 to further try to preempt the problem but was told 8:30) only to find the technician midway through a service. I object to walkins getting better service than an appointment, but even more I object to the disrespect for my time by lying repeatedly that it would only be "a few minutes" before my service would start. I have never missed or been late for an appointment. I have been friendly and loyal, and I do not appreciate this treatment. The only response when I finally voiced my problem was, "Sorry, ma'am!" read more

This place is great. The staff never forget a face or a customer. They are friendly and professional. They take their time and give great foot rubs!! The prices are reasonable. Once we discovered this place, we don't even think about going elsewhere! Highly recommended!! read more

This salon is clean and welcoming. They run this business very efficiently so that the wait time, even when full, is minimal. I have worn acrylic nails for many years, and I am fairly picky--not only about how my nails look, but how well the polish wears, about the sanitation of a salon, about how the estheticians respond to my concerns or requests, etc...City Nails Salon gets high marks for all of these. read more

This is my first time here. Had been searching for an affordable place to go. I have found it! My feet and legs feel wonderful!!!!! I will be back before heading back north. read more

I love this place! They do a good job and it is super affordable! I will definitely continue to go here!

Hello, To anyone who is new to Lafayette or maybe passing through please avoid. I went, looking up this nail shop received a 5 star rating, but was disappointed. They do not have a leg raiser they put your leg up on a bottle and a towel; Really? They also use a cheese grater; Really? They are great at being polite & friendly, but that is not enough for my standards. Go somewhere else. I was passing through in town for ULL graduation. I will choose better next time. read more

I've been going to City Nails for a while. I recently stopped because they take customers in the correct order. They had me soaking for an hour and took others before me. I went back but for the last time because they made my nails thin by buffing too much and using that polish that's hard and won't come off by soaking. I will NOT be returning there. The last time owner was not thankful nor others. read more

Horrible service. Went in for dip nails, pedicure and to get eyebrows waxed. Very few color selection and when I chose a color, I was told I needed to find the matching color for my toes myself. They did not help me at all! After I was not able to find my color, I just walked out. read more
