Friend A.

Lisa delivering on the gelx nails again. I brought in a few charms and asked her for her thoughts and she was very straight forward and realistic, but still respected my thoughts. She also as usual double checked over a dozen times if the colour/shaping was up to my preference. She was worried that the charm was too big, but it's very secure. Overall, I'm in love and have no complaints. Viriphone(?) was also a great tech as well! Quick and efficient.

I have been to Elite a few times now for acrylic balances. They are conveniently located on 5th avenue in a little strip mall, and though the parking lot can be chaotic at certain times of day, I always find a spot right out front. I recommend making an appointment because they do get busy, but each time I have done so I was seated shortly after arrival. They have lots of gel colors and good pedicure chairs, in the typical setup. They always seem to have a sense of urgency and the customer service has always been great for me. I tend to have fun and funky ideas, and they are always happy to try things out for me instead of hesitating and questioning it. Last time my full set with gel polish and chrome on top turned out well, and the shape was PERFECT. It took about an hour and fifteen minutes. I am really really picky about shape, so this is huge, and that's a pretty good amount of time for a full set. I also got a pedicure. The most recent time I went back, I just needed a balance and then gel polish over top. I had one broken nail that she had to remove and repair and I had budgeted an hour for myself for the appointment. I'm not sure of her name, but the nail tech who worked on me did my full balance and repair in 30 MINUTES FLAT! It was absolute madness and shocking to behold. And on top of it, her shaping was almost just as perfect as the last woman I went to. My balance + repair was $65 with card (+$10 tip), which is definitely on the pricier end, but for the consistency of the work there, I'll still go back. Pro tip on tipping: They only accept cash or venmo for tips, so plan accordingly so you don't leave your nail tech high and dry.

Absolutely fantastic I love this place! Cool rewards point system too! It allows you to rack up points to get $$ off!

Acrylic full set

Getting my nails done at Elite Nails was such a nice self care treat. This nail salon is a Vietnamese family run business and they are so sweet! They have something for everyone. From gel X to liquid gel and dip to acrylic. They're pretty affordable too! They also have a huge selection of colors. The only thing I was really weary about is cleanliness because tools weren't cleaned right in front of me but seeing tools being sanitized is my preference. They're very knowledgeable and know how to work with crappy dry hands like mine. Loan did a really good job with the art on my acrylic set. They're in a plaza with ample parking.

Please do not go to Sarah. She destroyed my cuticles and filed my nails down way too much and every single one of my nails hurts to the point where I can't even wash my hands without being in pain. The skin where my nail should be growing on is exposed. I'm in a lot of pain and scared that it will get infected.

Amazing

I need to rewrite this review as I need to give the proper shout out to the best nail artist I have ever had the pleasure to do my nails, name Is Michael. If u bring an idea of nail art to This wizard he always provide suggestions to make it better. Check out the images attached. Yes I can go to lacquer and get a similar look but for triple the cost. Take advantage of this amazing artist while paying a nominal fee. It won't last

Lisa was great with my nails! She was quick but attentive and we had fun talking too. Would highly recommend!

I've visited Elite several times for acrylic refills, and they always deliver exceptional service. But what's impressive about Elite is that they have something for everyone when it comes to nail services. Whether you prefer gel X, liquid gel, dip, or acrylic, they've got you covered. What's even better is that their prices are quite affordable, especially considering the area. You get fantastic value for your money. Their selection of colors is vast, ensuring you'll find the perfect shade for your nails. Moreover, the staff is incredibly nice and accommodating. They were always willing to make any minor adjustments I wanted to my nails

I've been going to elite nails for only a few months. I was worried when I moved to Columbus, I've been to terrible places in the past. It was just bought by a new owner when I first started going. Seeing the transition was great. The place is super cute. I typically see Sam, but everyone I've seen there was fantastic. Go check them out. You won't be disappointed. Oh.. call ahead. Make an appointment.

Used tools floating in pedicure bowl while I was receiving a pedicure

Very unwelcoming and unpleasant experience. The Nail tech was very rough while providing a pedicure service. I almost interrupted to tell her never mind and I'd like to just go somewhere else. This location gives me the impression that they service only a group of individuals that they prefer; even though it says walk in are welcomed. I didn't get the nail techs name because it wasn't personal. I just wouldn't go back or recommend anyone to Elite Nails. On the scale of cleanliness 4/10. I have never in my 25+ years of getting my nails/ feet serviced seen a nail tech use the pedicure bowl for disposal of used tools. She was practically throwing used objects beneath my feet. I had to move from objects being tossed, so that I didn't get caught in the cross fire. While receiving my service I'm literally watching trash float in the pedicure bowl beneath my legs. It was the most unpleasant experience. I was very respectful, quiet, and observant. When others came in that they were familiar with they were kind too. The nail tech tried to talk me into gel nail explaining that I wouldn't have to spend anymore time there as if she wanted me to leave as soon as possible. I declined because i didn't mind getting regular polish and waiting for my toes to dry under their nail vent. I made time to enjoy getting a pedicure and it was far from that. Overall my experience was very unpleasant and unwelcoming and I'd hope others who do check out Elite nails have a more positive, relaxing, and welcoming experience.

Trina’s Nail & Beauty Spa

(33 reviews)

Found Trina through Yelp and she's definitely worth the drive for me…read more This family owned spa is very welcoming, clean and relaxing. Best place to go for some self care! I've had the most amazing facial the other day and my skin feels brand new. Aside from the complimentary candy and drinks my favorite part is her unique take on designs I've brought in. Trina's are definitely better! My new go to spot!

UPDATED: There's a customer on here discrediting our experience of Trina. There was no service…read moreoffered when we walked in. No offering of service within 40 mins. Just attitude and bad vibes. There's no sign outside that says by appointment only. We saw a salon and stopped in. There was no "barging in" even the use of this terminology is micro-aggressive. Very telling of Trina and her customers. There's a way to communicate with potential customers. Appointment or not. Customer service is TRASH. We were RACIALLY PROFILED. I came to Columbus for Christmas and my family and I wanted to get our nails done, apparently they're "By appointment Only" which isn't the problematic part. The problem was how we were greeted upon entry. No hello. No how may I help you. Trina herself said "stop right there. what's this all about?" The place wasn't packed. There was a total of 2 customers. After she approached us like that, I had no intention of spending a single penny with Trina or the likes of her nail and beauty spa. She missed out on 4 new customers. ZEROOOOO STARSSSSSS
