Kovy Nail Spa - Pink and White - Nail Salons Near Me - Niceville, Florida

I went today to get my senior homecoming nails done. This was my old faithful and I have been here many times before. I can only get short nails because of sports, so I have pretty limited options for designs. That being said, I chose a simple design of blue and white stripes (view photo). As he's approaching the design, he takes no time at all on the stripes and they look nothing like the photo. I wish they had said they couldn't do that and I would have walked out and gone somewhere else. After I had paid $45, I went to my car and was unhappy with my nails. I went back in and they gave me a full refund, but I do not recommend going here if you want anything other than a solid color. (photos of inspo and what I received) read more

Don't get your eyebrows done here unless you want super skinny brows!! I've been to this salon multiple times before for nail services, and they've always done a good job. Before winter break, I went to get my eyebrows waxed there and they also did a great job. Left them natural and just cleaned up around and made them neat. However, today I went in for another eyebrow wax (around three months later) and there was a different lady doing the eyebrow service. Instead of just cleaning the brows up and making them neat, she completely waxed off the majority of my brows! They're now super skinny and thin, which is great if you're going for the 90s look, but for someone who just wants neat and natural brows, not ultra-thin ones, DO NOT GO. I'm not sure why the service was so different this time, but I do not recommend at all to anyone wanting their brows made neat. I'm just hoping that they will eventually grow back correctly. read more

I went in for a fill-in. My thumb nail had started to lift. Instead of replacing or glueing the nail, the technician merely added more acrylic to the area that had grown out, and added a lumpy layer over all the nail. The nail began to darken after a few days from water being under the acrylic, and of course the nail popped off in a week since only the edge was adhered. This totally could have been avoided, but the technician just didn't take the time to do it correctly I will remove the rest of the acrylic nail and let the natural nail return to healthy. This was my first fill-in after having gotten nails just two weeks earlier. read more

I've been going here since 2019 and I have always had a great experience. Today, 9/15/22, I went in for my appointment at 5pm to get French tip white nails with regular nail paint and almond shape for my senior homecoming. I made my appointment on Tuesday and asked for remi. I get there and this random lady said "go to 7" and I did and she jerked my arm and asked "what do you want" and I told her exactly what I wanted and she was filing my nails so hard that she cut my fingers. I flinched. Multiple times. And she told me that it was my fault. So rude. Than she used the drill and missed my nail and was drilling the back of my finger! She proceeded with painting my nails and kept asking me over and over what I wanted. She made the paint so thick compared to the picture I showed her and she rubbed oil all over my hands and the paint smeared everywhere and she said, "look good right?" UM NO THERES PAINT ALL OVER MY FINGERS! I asked her to fix them and she jerked my arm and fixed them and was rude about it. I kept asking her if she could stop and have remi fix them and she said, "no I'm here I do them". And then when she goes to ring me up she charges me $55 and less than a month ago I got the same design and everything for $40 and I told her that I'm not paying that much and she showed me the pamphlet that said $40 for acrylic French white tips. And she than told me that SHE DID GEL NAILS WHEN I SPECIFICALLY ASKED FOR NON GEL. i paid $43 in cash and I told her I would pay the rest on my card and asked for a receipt and she had the audacity to say, "no tip?" I said no and walked out. read more

If I could give this place double zero stars I would. First of all, the lady painted over a piece of dark hair, and it was hers because I have blonde hair. Also, my nails look like my big handed boyfriend did them...aka EXTREMELY SLOPPY. Save yourself your time and money and don't go here. read more

I had my nails painted with gel polish on Thursday and by Sunday FOUR had chipped which caused the nails to all break as well. On Monday another one broke before I was able to make it in to have them fixed. Although they fixed them free of charge, they now are different lengths and shapes. I appreciate them fixing them and not charging me but a little effort would have been nice. Now I have to find the time and pay another $40 before my engagement pictures this weekend. read more

Went today for a pedicure with my daughter as well as gel manicure. They did a wonderful job and really took there time on our pedicures. Very friendly and very clean. Will definitely be returning. read more

Only one star cuz I couldn't give less than that. The son is rude and quite frankly they don't do a great job with pedicures. In and out and like cattle. I want to be pampered for an hour and have soft feat to show for it, sadly that is not the case here. They're too many nail salons in this area to waste your money and time on a business that does not value their customers. read more

I have come to this salon a few different times, and they are VERY unprofessional. The shapes are always off on my nails, they are rough on the nail beds and have zero concern for the customer themselves. When I point anything that is 'off' out they say to me "your nail just do like that".... my nail has never "just do like that" before I came in here. However, I came by today looking to get my nails fixed after only a week of having them. When I walked in they said "it's gonna be a long wait, come back later". So when I asked when later was, I was given an eye roll and attitude. When I asked to make an appointment to make sure they had time they said we're too busy to take care of you..... seems like a great way to make a costumer never come back. read more

Would NOT recommend anyone go here unless you just have money to throw around for a sloppy okay job. Nails are over all okay looking on outside but the inside underneath are very sloppy done. Visiting Florida from Hawaii expecting it to be little cheaper here in the states but ended up paying more about fell over when they said it cost $50 for a regular gel full set no designs nothing. If I would have known I just would have went ahead and got them done before I started even left for vacation. read more

I've been going here for over 3 years now... I wouldn't choose no other place. These nail techs rock and are amazing at what they do. Reading these latest posts really shock me... You just can't satisfy ungrateful people. read more

She did NOT use clean tools, AND she cut me. Gel manicure lasted 5 days!! Super expensive and it looks awful after 5 days. AVOID

Horrible location and over priced on underarms wax! Super dirty Health department should pay them a visit! When I went to pay for the awful service I figured I will be charge a reasonable price the lady charged me $50 for just underarms and when I asked excuse me 50 for underarms she ignored me and talked in her language and charged me the $50.00 plus denied me the receipt said they had no more paper! I was not going to waste my time asking I just know to never ever return to such an awful place!! read more

I have being going here since my 10th grade in high school, now a sophomore in college I will no longer be coming back because there are places that can simply just do their job better. I recently went in to get a new set of acrylic nails and said that I have had problems recently where my nail will spit in half horizontally. The nail tech said that she will make my nails thicker so I won't have to worry about it, and that it was weird that it was happening (another nail tech said the same). Today I just simply opened a cabinet, being a week into my set (way shorter than I usually keep on), and my nail ripped in half. It ripped off my nail and now my nail bed is left exposed, burning, and bleeding. I'm tired of having new nails broken in half and their shaping honestly is awful. I always have a crooked nail from them and my lengths aren't always the same. If you want flawless nails I recommend somewhere else. $50 here on acrylics can go much further at another locations read more

I live in Destin but my boyfriend lives in Niceville, so I make a point to get my nails done here when I can! I do the SNS dip and this is the only place I have found in the area so far that my nails actually last a good amount of time without chipping or breaking or lifting off too early. read more

Visiting my Mom from NC and we decided to splurge and do mother-daughter mani/pedis. I selected the $$45 pedi which included leg mask, warm towel and hot stone massage, along with the other basic steps. I opted out for the hot stones and asked if I can just have the massage, which the said would be fine. The entire treatment was less then 30 mins. The mask was quickly applied and a cold towel was wrapped and chilled while they stepped away. The massage was basically a moisturizer application. A few swipes of the cream over my legs and feet. On a positive note, she didn't a great polish application and my mother enjoyed her service. read more

I had French tip manicure and a pedicure. The next day I went to the beach and my manicured fingernails turned brown!!! Apparently no top coat was applied. I went back two days later to ask them to fix my nails & they said it was my fault that my nails turned brown! They didn't offer a discount or a refund or to fix my ugly brown French tip nails. After spending $50.00 you would think they would try and keep their customer happy. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this nail salon! Very POOR service! read more

This place did a terrible job on my manicure. Let me rephrase that... All they did was a full acrylic set when I paid for a manicure. The nails are stumpy and wide and fanned out at the tips. They did horrendous job, not even worth a star! And they charge me an extra $10 for something I didn't even have done. They are crooked and crazy thick, and the guy that did them was one of the rudest nail techs I have ever met. I got a pedicure there and that was great! But please don't get your nails done there. It was so bad I ended up going to NAIL SPA in blue water bay immediately after,and they were appalled. They re-shaped them for me for free and did a quick lotion massage on my cracked hands. I did this as a b-day present to treat myself. Unbelievable. I was almost in tears. The first 3 photos were before the re-shaping done by the people in BWB. The others are after. Nail Spa was wonderful to me. Kovy can suck it. read more

My grandmother and I come here often and have never had a bad experience here. I can ALWAYS depend on Kovy to give me the exact nail style I am looking for and they always treat us right.

Tried a pedicure and it was very quick and a lot of the dead skin was really not scrubbed off my feet all the way

Terrible! Had a pedicure and a set of the dipping powder. I get gel on my toes as well as over top my dipping powder. They charged me for gel on my toes and didn't put the gel top coat on my toes so a week later polish is chipping off. And when I asked about the gel topcoat on my fingernails they don't put over dipping powder ‍ So $100 later I'm gonna have to go somewhere else to have done correctly read more

I have been coming here for many years but won't be again. A pedi and mani done in an hour and 10 minutes, and a pedi in 25 is just unacceptable. Their prices are not cheap and I like to relax and enjoy my time. Felt like they were rushing to get us out of the store to close early. Sorry but I will be going elsewhere. read more

I asked for a simple French manicure the nail tech kept trying to upsell me on things I didn't want and ended up doing a service of white tips which I did not want he took the lazy way out...I will not be back my nails look horrible!!! read more

I will not go back here...pedicure was decent, but not the gel nails. Mediocre job by male tech.

Awful service! The man who did my gel insisted on filing my nails after gel had set, then poured tons of that cuticle softer goo all over my nail beds had me wash my hands. This of course ruined my gel, it immediately started to bubble and two days later my gel nails started to peel! I have never received such a bad gel job! read more

I have been going here since I was in highschool and I absolutely love it. I am always satisfied with the work they do. I have tried other salons but I always end up coming back to Kovy to get them fixed. Great selection for dip powder nails. read more

Poor service, the guy who attended me acted like he was so bothered. There was no real manicure even though I was charged for one, cuticles look same. He literally huffed, puffed and rolled eyes while doing my nails. I was really compelled to just leave. The nail polish ( Gel) started peeling off within 3 days. I'll never go back to this salon. Poor service, poor treatment, and nails didn't even turn out looking nice. read more

I heard great things about this salon so I was really excited to have a pedicure there. However, the gentleman who was doing my pedicure kept leaving my service to go fill up the foot spas for other customers. He rushed through my service barely providing the service I paid for. When I got home, I had to scrub down my heels because he failed to do it! I won't go back. I don't normally write reviews, but I felt I needed to write one for my service today. read more

I had the pleasure of meeting Christian, a lovely lady who has just started with Kovy, but who has greater than 10 years' experience with nails. She was absolutely awesome! I got a pink and white fill, and a hot stone, gel pedicure. At no time did she 'burn' my nails trying to hurry, or make my cuticles bleed by pulling too roughly. I think this has been my best nail experience, and I have been getting my nails done for over 20 years. She also speaks fluent English, and takes her time to be sure everything is just like you like. No pressure sales, no rush, no confusion. I will never go to anyone else in this area! read more

They do an okay job ,but all technicians give off an attitude that they wish they had another job; not very friendly atmosphere. Messed up one nail and instead of removing all polish just pained over leaving a tiny ripple that i noticed once i got in sunshine. Think I'll give another spa a try. read more

My mother recently had a stroke and is unable to walk. She is currently in a rehabilitation facility trying to learn how to walk again. This past Saturday we went to Kovy to just get her out of the facility and do something nice. We wanted to get her a pedicure. She can't get from her wheelchair and into the big massage chair that has the tub with it, but we assumed they would just be able to use a regular small tub and do the pedicure from her wheelchair. Every nail salon I have ever been to has these small tubs, so I never imagined it would be an issue. Kovy claimed to not have these tubs and refused to even attempt to accommodate my mother. Surely she is not the first person in a wheelchair to try to get their toenails done. On top of it all, the employees were EXTREMELY rude which added literal insult to literal injury. read more
