Victor was amazing! My nails turned out so good and he checked with me throughout the process to make sure i was satisfied. Will definitely be back

Gracey W.

They state they close at 9 online, 8 on the door but they take their last client "at 7" unless someone isn't available, I was here at 6:50 and was happy to wait the 5 seconds it took for them to finish the person next to me Bad attitude and bad business practice. That's why yall have a 2 star. You need to state your hours and stick to them.

I went to Elite Nails about a month ago and got an amazing set of acrylic nails!! My experience went perfectly and the spa is really clean and has a great ambiance. A month later the manicure still looks amazing and I am definitely going back here every time. I have had no chips on my nails and the paint still looks amazing. I have gotten so many compliments. I have attached a photo from the day I got them done :)

pointin to the sky, shape is terrible not what i wanted at all.

This nail salon is terrible. i do not recommend at all. me and my friend came in our nails look so bad, hers look nothing like her inspo picture. they were rude when we said something about it and wouldn't even give particular money back.

I was a walk-in for a new set of acrylics for valentine's day, the nails are literally GORGEOUS! my favorite set i've had and they were done pretty quick ! Mel did my nails , i think she's newer to the salon because i hadn't seen her before but she did so good! i definitely recommend this place and especially her ! (i just want to add that i chose a different pink color and asked for more hearts)

ready for my bachelorette this coming weekend!!

Came here to get my nails done on a Saturday after meeting my cousin for lunch. They were pretty busy with giving pedicures so I was able to walk right in to get my nails done. It's a relaxed atmosphere and everyone is super friendly. I would recommend the guy who did my nails, hate I didn't get his name!

The smudge the lady didn't fix and more polish chipping after 5 days

I went to get a pedicure with my sister and the lady was trimming my toe and it started to bleed not only did it start but it didn't stop. She finished my toes they were kinda splotchy the massage part was nice though. I also got a quick polish remove and a quick paint soon as the lady went to buff my nail she left a pretty big cut on my pinky nail she tried to wipe the blood off my pinky it was everywhere so another lady came and helped her and they put this green liquid and super glue on MY NAIL. And not only that she smudged my other pinky nail and didn't remove it she just paint over like nothing. This was my first time going and last.

Probably the worst place I've been to. They are way over priced and not professional at all. I went to get a manicure and two days later my polish turned a brown color! They also put way to much clear coat which later caused it to leave bubbles behind.

I just moved to the area. This was the first nail salon I visited. I came in about 5:15, asking for a full-set and pedicure. I thought it was plenty of time since the don't close until 8. After waiting about 10 minutes they call me for the pedicure. He finished and asked me to back up front to wait for the full set, I agreed. After waiting about 10 minutes the lady I'm assuming the manager asked me if I could come back tomorrow because her staff is tired and tomorrow will be a better day. Another customer who was waiting to be serviced (an older white lady who got there after me) laughed and said I can't believe they have another hour and a half and she telling you they're tired. It's now 6:22 and I'm sitting in the parking lot thinking how I will never visit this establishment again. The gel pedicure wasn't even that great

I I started coming to elite nail spa in 2019 after I moved from Durham and going to La Vie nail spa for over 10 years. I want to start by saying that Emily, Amy, and Mel are amazing if you decide to come to this nail spa in terms of actual nail service. That's the most positive thing you're going to get from this review. I came into the nail spa today to get a manicure and a pedicure. The woman who did my pedicure I do not know her name but she was amazing. Jenny did my nails today for the first time and after this experience I will never be returning back to this nail spa. She filed my pinky nail down to a point where it started to bleed. I asked for a specific color after picking up the wrong color twice and actually starting to paint my nails she went and picked out the right color. She then proceeded to paint my nails after completing a very poor manicure where my cuticles were not even treated properly. After she completed the painting I advised her that I was not pleased with the service and that there was polish in places that it should not have been. She tried to tell me that it was because I was ashy which was really offensive because I am a black woman and again I have been coming to this nail spa for over two years. She completed the painting and then called Amy over who again try to advise me that my nail polish looked the way it did because of my skin color and me being ashy and that all of this could be resolved with cuticle oil I advised her at that point that this has nothing to do with my skin and nothing to do with my cuticles but it's an error on the nail tech in terms of painting. There was nothing done to rectify the situation I paid the full price after having my nail destroyed and a horrible painting job. Needless to say, I will not be coming back that was enough for me to never come back to a place like this again I don't feel valued as a customer and this is it for me. I'll be taking my business elsewhere.

Full set of tips and SNS 40$

Skipped trimming cuticles, moisturizing hands, and hand massage in their manicure package. Kept trying to up-sell my friends even though they politely declined many times before they let them sit down. Could not explain fully what acrylic or SNS was, just wanted me to say yes to something. Finished nails were okay but not good, a lot of excess and debris left under the nail and the sides. Tabletops where nails were done were dirty with other nail filings. Atmosphere would have been okay but was not relaxing with employee's kids walking around barefoot watching kids shows loudly. Overall not what we paid for and terrible customer service. There are better places to go in Burlington for the same price.

Terrible job done. My manicure was completely rushed. My cuticles were not tended to and there was no lotion used on my hands after. I have glue and dried powder stuck to my fingers. Very disappointed. Will never come back.

Uneven

I asked for coffins and my nails are square and said that if it's long it cost more which I e never experienced. After it was over I noticed my nails were crooked and uneven as well as different shapes from my opposite hand. Worst experience ever and waste of money.

My SNS two days after I got it done.

I'm new to the area ,I booked an appointment because of all the amazing reviews but I'm sadly…read moredisappointed. My nail tech was late which wasn't a big deal. I was her first appointment of the day, I should have paid more attention to the nail work, but I didn't and didn't until my nails were painted and all the flaws were easily seen , puts a customer an awkward position, i'm just surprised that she let me walk out the door with my nails looking the way they did. So I decided just to deal with it and not go back. my nails are really bubbly and one side and the other side of my nail bed is super think like paper but they are very and even some of my nails don't match they all are different sizes I went back today to get my nail fixed, and ask them to fix the nails that were noticeably uneven and unstable. I was told I had to come back and see the nail tech that did my nails, which I felt was very unfair because that would be three days that I had to cons sit and get my nails done. I then basically begged the nail tech to at least fix the one that was incredibly think one one side and thick on the other . Unfortunately I will not be going back but here are some photos of the work that I got it. UPDATE : I Woke up to three text messages from mike , he was very professional and his main goal was to resolve my issue. He did provide me with different options in order to resolve my issues and make sure I was satisfied with the end goal, I will say I am more then satisfied with the way they handled it and even tho I am uncomfortable with going back I'm going to because mike has made it more comfortable, I changed my star rating because of how professional and print this was taken care of *** 2nd update : MIKE was amazing and my nails look AMAZING.... I'm impressed and definitely see why they have high reviews , everyone has a bad day we are human, and mike made sure to correct it and go above and beyond !!!!! He's stuck with me now !!!!!!

Check in on a white tablet. Staff is super friendly and attentive. There's no pressure to upsell so…read morethat's nice. I came in for a standard pedicure and everything was wonderful. Plenty of parking in shared lot. The area is clean and it's relatively quiet. I can hear music but it's not too loud. Not a lot of talking happening inside either so it's pleasant. Renee did an excellent job for me. I asked her to pick me out a nice shade of red and she found a gorgeous new shade. I ended up getting a gel polish and the paraffin. Why not. It was worth it and I'll be back

After sitting on this for a while, I've decided to update my review/rating for this salon and…read more(unfortunately) do not plan to return here. The first time I went in was awesome - Vickie gave me hands down one of the best SNS manicures I've ever had, but my next 2 experiences left much to be desired. Vickie was unavailable the second time I called and I probably would have waited for her to have an opening (not that it would've mattered - more on that), but my birthday was in 2 days and I was headed out of town to celebrate, so, I didn't want my nails lookin' all busted and figured (based on my first experience) whomever I got would be great. I was very wrong. My second manicure here was a mess: color bled and there were silver sparkles through; the color I was shown originally was a chromatic metal, but I ended up with silver glitter french tips, better suited for Christmas (ironically, the woman at the front desk came to show me how cool her chromatic blue/green nails were - I almost said something, but at that point, figured I just made a mistake not waiting for Vickie). When I mentioned a design I was thinking about getting in the future, the nail tech stated the colors I wanted clashed and didn't match lol like wat?! I understand making recommendations, but insulting a customer's taste, because the nail tech doesn't like the design is just...bad business. Additionally, the nail tech didn't fully remove the red from my nail before applying the new color and red was still visible under the new set when I got home. The tipping point, however, was when she commented on how the other nail techs talk too much, which I found/find highly unprofessional - don't badmouth your coworkers to employees folks!! Come on... Immediately upon getting home and seeing what a horrible job the nail tech did, I called back and scheduled an appointment 2 weeks out with Vickie, and even stated on the phone to the receptionist (I think Angela is the receptionist's name, but could be wrong) that I was scheduling that far out to ensure I got to see Vickie. Fast forward 2 weeks and I went in for my mani/pedi appt, excited to FINALLY get my nails done again by Vickie. However, when my pedicure was done I was placed in the chair of the nail tech next to Vickie and was super confused when she started asking me the shape and color I wanted for my nails, given my appointment was with Vickie, not her. While the woman I ended up getting my manicure from did a decent job, I was floored when Vickie didn't say a WORD to me as I stared at her in confusion. Based on the tension between Vickie and her neighboring tech (aka the woman who ultimately did my nails), I figured she got behind and asked the girl who ultimately did my nails to help her out, but what continues to bug me in all of this is the absolute lack of communication from ANYONE as to why the appointment I made 2 weeks prior was not being respected/kept (she had the same customer at her station from when I arrived - I could have said, "no, I'll wait," but honestly, I was waiting for Vickie to communicate on what was going on and at the very least say, "So sorry! I fell behind - do you mind if ________ does your manicure today?"). The other part of this situation that really bugged me is I'm unsure if I got passed off to whoever was available at the time due to Vickie's next customer being related to and/or family friend's of the receptionist (the receptionist kept coming over to Vickie's client and petting her hair, giving the impression she was either related to the girl OR a family friend), but regardless, I found it HIGHLY unprofessional and insulting that my original appointment was not honored. To add insult to injury, my bill went up by $11.00, and while that may have been due to me getting a french pedicure design (but $11.00 - really??), nothing was ever communicated to me on the change in price, leaving me to believe the cost was arbitrarily raised. Super disappointed all around, as I thought that I finally found a salon I could go to regularly, but I won't go somewhere that doesn't honor my appointments with the nail tech I made it with nor communicates...well, much of anything.

Have you ever been charged $5 extra for having healthy nails? Guess there is a first time for…read moreeverything..... I come here around once a month and today's experience went how the majority of other visits have gone. I was greeted when I entered, I checked in, had to wait a bit for a pedi chair and for my mani tech which was to be expected since I didn't have an appointment and came during a busy time (10a the day before Mother's Day), gel pedi and dip mani turned out great as always.....however the checkout experience was strange. I noticed during checkout I was being changed $5 for length. I explained that I didn't get tips and got dip on my natural nail and I was told since I left my natural nails longer, it takes more time and therefore I was being charged extra. I was very confused and pushed back because I have naturally long nail beds, I also have extra skin that grows under my nails which prevents them from being cut to the main skin, and also I have never been charged this fee at this salon before. On this visit I have less than 0.5mm clearance between the tip of my nail and the extra skin under my nail which is painful if cut on most nails. Even though the checkout lady disagreed with me, one of the techs came over and said they would wave the fee THIS time since I had to wait. I felt like I was being punished for having healthy nails which is a turn off since I've never experienced this in all of my years of getting my nails done almost every month. This really has me reconsidering returning especially since I already get charged for sns/dip removal that they put on the month before (lots of salons wave this if they put them on). I've been paying extra for the convenience, nail quality, and sweet owner but I refuse to pay extra because I and also this salon do a good job taking care of my nails and genetics making my nails appear longer than most due to my long nail bed....

Mai at Luxe Nails gave me one of the best pedicure. Very reasonably priced and fun atmosphere.read more
