    Fiorella S.

    For the record, this is literally the first Yelp review I've written. I've had negative experiences in other places but never felt strongly enough to write a review until now. I am in extreme disbelief and disappointment with this salon. Prior to my appointment, I made it a point to clarify the pricing due to the fact that the time prior, they were very deceiving with their pricing. I called ahead to verify how much a hard gel refill with gel color would be (I was told $65... which is still overly priced IMHO, but it's coral gables so not surprised) needless to say, I ended up leaving paying almost double. The nail technician asked if I wanted to make them shorter (BECAUSE OF MY PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE I KNEW BETTER AND ASKED IF THIS WAS GOING TO BE EXTRA) I was not surprised when she told me that cutting my actual nails would be an additional $5??? You'd think that cutting your nails would be standard in an overall manicure charge.... The work done on my nails was decent (despite having dry patches and my cuticles not being cut).... I feel as though they are not being ethical and tricking their customers into paying more. I use to work at a high end salon and have friends who work as nail technicians. Therefore, I fully understand nail technicians or really anyone working in the cosmetic industry for that matter to be compensated for the amount of labor provide. With that being said, The nail tech only spent 25- MAYBE 30 minutes on my nails but I was told that I was being charged more because of the amount of work that needed to be done? Upon arrival, I had even complemented the nail tech for how well my nails had held up. They were perfectly intact from the previous appointment. I am the furthest thing from a confrontational person, but I could NOT not say anything. I politely expressed my concern to the front desk hey lady, I believe she is The Manager. I emphasized to her if my nail technician would have expressed to me how much more I would've been paying, I would've gladly walked out. Her only response was I go by what the nail technicians told me they did. I left paying $98 when I was told it would only be $65 . This place is unprofessional and sketchy. If you see below, I am not the only one who has experienced a situation similar to this. I truly don't mind spending a pretty penny on a service if the work itself is good and the people providing the service are transparent, but sadly (FOR THE SECOND TIME) it was the opposite of this. Unless you have money to blow and don't care about honesty, I would stay clear of this place.

    The worst most unprofessional manicurist I have ever met. Avoid at all costs. Got a severe infection from this.

    INFECTION ALERT!!!! HORRIBLE INFECTION FROM HERE!!! I went to this place for a gel mani and pedi. The guy who did my nails was horrible, rude, so unprofessional and made me feel extremely uncomfortable. On my toe nails, he pulled out some skin on the side of my nail. It was a violent pull with his dirty fingers and I yelped. This resulted in severe pain and infection the next day. I saw a doctor and he said it's infected and I have to be on 10 days of antibiotics now and I can barely walk. It's excruciating pain and I get pedicures all the time. This has never happened. I've never seen someone so unprofessional. He also pulled out a hair from my toe with his finger and I looked at him and was like what was that......?!?!?! He was like u had a hair! Are u kidding me. Horrible unprofessional disgusting truly stupid. I also have a cut on another of my toes on the top. Also note they don't cover the foot baths with plastic. I should have stopped him after all that but I didn't realize I was going to get an infection at the time so I let him finish my finger nails but he shaped them so bad and painfully that at that point I did tell him I don't want gel, just a regular manicure. I needed to get out of there as fast as possible. When he was done, 3 of my nail beds were bleeding severely. He used a drill on my finger nails too without asking me. The receptionist Yari and manager were really nice when I showed them my manicure and didn't charge me for them because of the blood and the look of the whole thing which was horrible. They offered to redo it but I just wanted to get out of there so I left. I still paid for the pedicure though because I didn't realize how horrible it was at the time and didnt realize I was going to get an infection and I just wanted to leave. Waste of money and now I have to pay for medical bills and medicine. Posted a pic of the Hispanic dude who did my nails. Avoid at all costs. He has longish hair and a half bun. Avoid. Also side note when I asked him for advice on a color he was so rude and unhelpful that everyone turned to look at him.

    If you want bad service and to be charged double for a basic service you got the right place. I came in for a fill in with regular nail polish and was charged $60!!!! First of all the owner tried to belittle me for wanting regular polish over gel when I was walking over to pick out my color by yelling out "omg I can't believe you want regular polish, are you really going to sit over there and wait for it to dry..." I just laughed It off as a joke but should have just walked out. The one start is only worth the nails, they turned out nice. HOWEVER, I wasn't happy with the shadiness. The owner and the manicurist were talking in their language clearly about me because they would used a few words in English like "5 weeks" and "oh ya she has long nails" come to find out they were plotting the price. As those were the exact words the receptionist used to tell me the price went from $30 to $60. My nails were "over 5 weeks old" which is damn near impossible with acrylics to get away with without having multiple nails fall off and bad lifting on all your nails. On top of that they said they charged an extra $10 for length (never heard of that for a fill in). I had one lifted nail that had to be redone completely (which is usually included in a fill in or $5 extra tops). While I was expressing how shocked I was with the price the owner didn't even look up or make a comment. When I walked over to tip my manicurist and said thank you, she didn't even lift her head up or acknowledge me. I should have been surprised as a majority of the time she had her earphone in watching a show or something. Sad that I was planning on coming back because I liked my nails. Another customer lost.

    They always take care of me and can never thank them enough. My favorite nail place Special shoutout to Vivian who left me looking fresh and cute

    Hearts a little grown out but this is for design reference! Done by Vy
    Rommina R.

    This place is great. They have sooooo many polish choices. I love getting designs and I have gel extensions. My go to are Vy and Kim they do amazing nails! Vy kills my designs everytime. I love that my appointment is always honored. If I make an appointment for 2pm I am seen at 2pm. I've never waited more than 5 mins to get my mani pedi started. 10/10 recommend this place.

    Dip powder

    I am the most pickiest person when it comes to my nails. But I am not exaggerating when I say that I can walk into Gables Nails and be 100% confident I'm gonna walk out happy. By far Kim is the best nail technician I have ever went to. I say this with every bone in my body and with total conviction. I feel like a bad ass b*tch walking out of the salon with a fresh set of nails, I have no complaints. Also doesn't hurt that she has the best go getter/ in your face personality that I have ever come across.

    Black-on-black gel manicure I requested for Halloween: matte black base color with glossy french tips, by T
    Beatriz S.

    Love this nail salon! I have been a customer here for years, almost always for gel mani/regular pedi, which is done in one hour flat and lasts me 2-3 weeks. I usually book an appointment in advance with the same person, but on the off-chance I need to go as a walk-in, I am almost always paired with someone immediately. Most employees have been with the salon since I started coming here and I can confidently say they are great at what they do.

    I loved my experience here! I was seen right away with an appointment (some places still make you wait in Miami even with an appointment), and Melissa gave me a great fill-in with gel polish. She was very thorough with the shaping and really took her time throughout the process. Though I paid more than I am used to because I usually just get regular polish, the pricing seemed fair ($50). More importantly, the quality was great for the price, which seems to be less than commonplace in Miami. I will be back!

    Highly Recommended!!! I went in for a hair color correction,…read morehair cut, style and blow dry, then added on a manicure last minute, which they accommodated. I don't recommend booking last-minute anything, anywhere, just out of respect for the staff, other clients and establishment. Nonetheless, the owner was kind enough to arrange it. I found WaxMee Salon & Spa on Instagram (@waxmee_salon_and_spa), when I was searching for a new hairstylist. I've been getting my hair done for the past 20 years, and I am picky with whom I let color treat it. I decided to try out WaxMee S&S, because I noticed from their Instagram posts that their results looked beautiful, even on different people with different hair styles/colors/textures/etc. They don't just work the trendy blonde balayage, but they work with darker color and reds, too, which takes skills. HAIR: Ask for Romina, she is amazing! Romina took her time with the initial consult to truly understand what had been done to my hair by a previous hairstylist. I really appreciated this, because lately, a lot of stylists tend to tell you what they want to do with your hair. That's fine if you're open to the surprise, but feeling heard is so important for someone who knows what they want. Her work is not cookie-cutter. She truly tailors the style to each person, and makes suggestions based on experience and on your particular needs. Romina was efficient, fast, knowledgeable, skilled, professional and friendly. I appreciated that she was on time, got to work right away, was mindful of the time and communicative throughout the process. I asked her to cut about 5-6 inches off of my hair, which she did. This is important, because for some reason, it seems other stylists are afraid to use their scissors and they end up only trimming the ends! Romina listened and understood what I wanted, and delivered a new style and color that looks very natural and tailored to me! I will definitely be back and highly recommend that you book with her. I love my new hair color and cut! NAILS: The manicure was a last-minute add-on, but that didn't mean I had to wait long. The owner immediately called one of the manicurists who got to work on my nails as Romina was doing my hair. I truly appreciate this, because they don't waste your time. I loved that I was able to get two services done at once, so that I did not have to end up spending the entire day at the salon. The manicurist was so good and fast! For a moment I thought she was rushing it, but the end result was flawless. My only regret is not remembering her name, although I do remember her face. I will be back to see her as well. SALON: WaxMee is a full-service salon with professional and friendly staff, and EXCELLENT prices! Some of their other services include laser treatments, facials, massages, fibroblast, etc. It was clean, the receptionist and the owners are very attentive, and the coffee and tea nook is stocked (something a coffee-lover like me appreciates). PARKING: There's metered street parking only. Download and use the PayByPhone App for convenience. Do not park in the nearby plaza or you risk getting towed. WaxMee Salon & Spa is a keeper! Definitely give them a try if you're looking for great results at great prices. Check them out on IG: @waxmee_salon_and_spa to see some of their work.

Unfortunately, this Miami location has consistently been the worst I've encountered. Every single time I come here, I leave disappointed -- whether it's the quality of the service itself or the overall experience with the specialist. And to be clear, I'm not someone who is overly picky or difficult. I show up, I'm polite, and I just want a smooth, professional service done well. Somehow, that seems to be too much to ask at this location. Honestly, the only reason I've come back multiple times is because I forget just how bad the experience is. I'm generally easygoing and not quick to complain, so I give it another shot thinking maybe it was just an off day -- but it never is. The inconsistency in results, the rushed feeling, and the lack of care are just not what you expect from this brand. And the fact that I'm actually taking the time to write a review says a lot -- I normally wouldn't. It's frustrating because I've had great experiences at other locations for years, so I know this isn't a brand issue -- it's specific to this location. At this point, I avoid coming here unless I absolutely have to. Would not recommend this location based on repeated experiences.

Bia, a nice lady from Brazil, immediately scheduled me for a waxing/sugaring. Gisela, a nice lady from Venezuela, did my waxing/sugaring and left me with smooth and silky skin. I am grateful! I also inquired about the coffee body scrub I saw displayed in the waxing/sugaring room. Gisela kindly explained to me that one should first shower with soap before applying the moisturizing and exfoliating scrub. I am glad she explained that to me since, all these years, I have been using scrub before showering with soap and have been losing the full moisturizing benefits of the scrub. Moreover, Bia, gave me great first time customer discounts on my waxing/sugaring and informed me of a membership program whereby I would pay an initiation fee of $9.99, $45 a month to get a full bikini wax and 10% off of any additional waxing/sugaring services. I found out too that they also offer laser hair removal services as well as hydra facials, microdermabrasion and various natural facial peels. I will definitely be back for more waxing/sugaring services. I came back to have my facial hair waxed. Nicole, a young American girl shaped/tidied my eyebrows and waxed the hair on my upper lip and chin. She carefully and skillfully removed ingrown hairs that could not come out with the wax with assorted tweezers. She recommended that I buy and use a roll-on serum they sell to exfoliate skin and prevent ingrown hairs if used 3 times a week. I did. I just went for the third time to Nature Hair Removal & Skin Care. Gisela gave me a full body wax and I feel like a new woman with smooth and silky skin! Also, following her advice to exfoliate with the coffee body scrub has had great results, I have fewer ingrown hairs, my skin is easier to wax and my skin is also smoother!
