Amazing nail work!!! When I'm in town from Cle and need my nails done, no other place to go!

Very cute studio with super nice staff, however I was disappointed that my gel X manicure did not last long at all. Two days after I got my manicure, my left pinky nail popped off. I went back and they repaired it for free since it was within seven days from my original appointment. That being said, more of my nails started to pop off the following week and I couldn't get them repaired since at that point I was outside of the seven day window. My entire manicure ended up lasting less than two weeks. I got a gel pedicure that day as well and within 8 days of the original appointment the polish peeled off of my left middle toe. I also got a spray tan that day that only lasted about 9 days. I really love the service and vibe there, but with how much I paid overall ($200 plus tips), I would have hoped for better. read more

I've been to all three- hair, skin and nails and I always have an amazing experience at all of them. This review will be specifically about nails because I just came in for a nail appointment yesterday. I saw Sisi for extensions with level 2 nail art. I got gel x tips with a black and nude ombré, chrome and little star designs. She was incredible! So gentle with my natural nails and clearly knowledgeable about how to keep nails healthy with these services. And my nails are absolutely stunning. I'll be going back to her for my next set. Highly recommend!! read more

the cutest nail salon! they did excellent on our pedicures, 7 yr old loved it. will absolutely come back!

Definitely in decline - used to be a favorite - had two appts 5/9 and then 5/16 - same service, both canceled same day by same technician and no availability from anyone until 10 days from now unless I want to take PTO. 100% off next service but literally can't book (and it might get cancelled anyway..) read more

I've known Heather for many years. She has always been very artistic. So when I found out she was doing nails at Lacquer about 4 years ago, I HAD to go see her. I've been going off and on since. She is very detail-oriented, patient, and has never not been able to make my ideas come to life. Plus I have so much fun catching up with her! :) if you are looking for a new nail tech that will make your nails look flawless, check her out. I've known Heather for many years.

This place ruined all other nail salons for me. I love how my nails turn out every single time, and though I've never needed it, I really appreciate their fix window. I have seen a different person every time I go (Molly, Autumn, & Rayn) and they have all done an incredible job. I love the feel of this place and can't wait to go back. read more

Nails were so cute when I got them done! The technician was super friendly and did exactly what I wanted. However, my gel x starting falling off in less than a week and all of them were off within two weeks which is disappointing for the price paid. The studio was beautiful and welcoming. read more

I have been coming to Lacquer gallery nails for a little over 1.5 years now and I'm definitely obsessed. I typically get my nails done every 4 weeks with Anna. She has helped me greatly improve the overall health of my nails! I previously had brittle and severely damaged nails from prior salon experiences and now I can wear my natural nails relatively long without breakage! Her work is absolutely flawless and she is very quick. Coming to lacquer gallery is always a treat!! The salon is incredibly clean and staff is always super kind and inviting! I will say lacquer gallery is on the pricey side, but is 100% worth it for the level of work and you can count on a clean and safe environment! read more

This was my first pedicure at Lacquer Gallery. I am a senior, whereas most clients are 20s-50s, plus I use a walker. Everyone was helpful getting me in the shop and into the pedicure chair and back out safely. They were helpful and attentive. My feet felt fantastic at the end of the hour for the Signature Pedicure. Avion was my nail professional. The only downside to this clean, pleasant place is not being ADA compliant, but their gracious help made it work. read more

Makayla is an excellent esthi! Highly recommend her for Brazilians or your facial waxing. So kind and very quick. 10/10

Update: Here is the response for the salon. I do not accept the response from this business. They have taken no accountability for any of their wrong doing. I was very kind with Georgia, and told her the color was nice, but not at all what I had originally asked for. It very interesting that the salon manager knows how many times i called and yet, could not return a single email or simple text to advise you were working on the situation. 1- For the mgr to take 24 hours to respond to a customer complaint, that was time sensitive, is unheard of. Atleast provide acknowledgement of the problem, and that you would actually get back to me shortly (shortly does not mean 24 hours) 2- Georgia offered ONE solution, for me to come back on her next opening, 4/15, which was 12 days later; which I relayed I was out of town for. The receptionist continually asked me if this was the day that worked for me, without acknowledging i had said I was out of town, multiple times. He gave me ZERO other alternatives, which led me to believe there was no sense of urgency, or respect of my time. My behavior was extremely polite and respectful to both Georgia and the receptionist (even though his ignorance was very unbecoming). I finally became irritated as noone was offering a single solution, and not taking acknowledgement of her miscolor and misjudgment along with not listening to my wishes on my schedule or timing. 3 -I stated to Georgia MULTIPLE times, my hair did not need a toner, and yet with her being uneducated on blondes, led her to picking a much darker toner color, and applying when I had requested this was not necessary, that my color lifted well on its own. 4- This comment, as are most of them, is completely false, and was never mentioned to me: "The client was also confused about the additional Salon Scale cost which Georgia for sure reminded her of during the service" 5- The actual color that was applied was terrible. i showed it to many colorists, who said there was so much bleeding it created blobs of color everywhere. (also, the mgr has not acknowledged this once) 6 - Time- This has been a comical part of the story as well! For my initial request of a "mini partial", and for that one service to take 5.5 hours, is very telling of the professionalism and efficiency of Georgia. No service should take this amount of time, esp one that should have taken 1.5 - 2 hours max. All in all, I find it very telling in the salons responses that they did not hold any wrongdoing or accountability for their lack of education in coloring, toning, cuts, scheduling, customer service, etc. The list goes on. I do hope they receive some business acumen moving forward. I wish their current customers well, as it may be a long disappointing road ahead. Regards, Kenna Schneider read more

It's a fun environment and the technicians are nice. However, three days after my pedicure, 3 full toes of polish flaked off completely. When I asked to come in to have it repaired, it was $5 a toe. It didn't seem worthwhile to pay $15 more on top of an already expensive pedicure ($60 before tip and tax). I've never had that happen with pedicures before- they usually last several weeks. Very disappointed. read more

Booked an appointment here because I've heard great things about them but was really disappointed. The tech was great, she did an awesome job and was so kind! But - my appointment was for 2:15 for a simple Gel Mani one color. At 2:04 they texted me that my appointment was being pushed back until 2:30. At this point, I already parked and was about to go in. So I waited until 2:30. I still sat and waited until 3pm to be seen. That is 45 mins AFTER my original appointment. I understand things can happen but with it being my first time, I don't plan on going back. I wasn't offered a discount or anything for the inconvenience. Though I didn't ask, I shouldn't have to. I'm disappointed because like I said - she did a great job. But I didn't leave there until 4. If they were that far behind, they should have reached out to me much sooner than 11 minutes. Be careful on scheduling a time, especially if it's in-between your work day. read more

I feel so comfortable every time I come here! Most recently, I had a gel removal and gel manicure with Liz L., who I try to schedule my appointments with most of the time. As always, she did an AMAZING job with the whole process. She was ready for me as soon as I walked in, she took care of my nails, and took into consideration the current state of them to figure out how to best cut and shape them. She takes her time and makes sure my nails look good from all angles, not just from hers as she is working on them. I had a discount on this appointment as I scheduled it when Lacquer had their Black Friday / Cyber Monday sale, so that was a bonus! read more

This is for Lacquer Skin but I couldn't find a separate listing on Yelp. Got my eyebrows waxed from Natalie. Prompt service, such a kind lady and easy to talk to, did my eyebrows PERFECTLY, and overall a great experience. It had been 8 years since I got my eyebrows done, and she did a magnificent job. I'll be back. read more

Okay! This is like my third review for Lacquer Gallery and I promise I'm not being paid for these lol! Truth be told, I almost didn't want to write this review because I wanted to keep this secret to myself but that would be doing a disservice to the amazing nail ARTIST, Tara! I've been following quite a few nail artists at the salon and somehow got in with Tara McClure- who I would expect to be booked out. Nope! I got lucky. Originally I'd wanted something dark and goth like I normally do but Tara's skill are so top notch, I wanted to expand my horizons. I decided to go with one of my favorite artists, Keith Haring, on whim in the taxi ride home from the airport. I sent Tara some images for inspo (none of which she used and I'm super happy about) just to get her juices flowing. Can I just say she surpassed even what I wanted. Like she took what i was thinking and made it ten times better. Not only did she do incredible Keith Haring art on my nails but she found some art that I was not expecting. And I also noticed that she arted each finger on one hand with something similar on the corresponding finger of the other hand. I cannot stop looking at my nails. I'm already mourning the day that they'll be gone, and everyone has been complimenting them nonstop. I've already booked my next appt with her. read more

Were do I even start with lacquer? I started coming here to get my nails done at the beginning of this year. I have been nothing but impressed with them every time I come. Tara does an amazing job on nails, have nothing but good things to say about her. Their other services are great as well. I go to skin every now and then to get a facial & derma-plane. It's super relaxing and they always do a great job. I did get my hair done once in the salon and it was a good experience. Haven't been to the tattoo part of them yet but I've heard nothing but good things about them as well. I would recommend lacquer to anyone looking for a great quality and long lasting manicure and/or pedicure. read more

Also super affordable for gel + design + full manicure. Definitely check our Lacquer Gallery! read more

Clean and safe location and it was busy on a weekday afternoon--I recommend scheduling in advance! Also don't make the same mistake as me and walk into the hair salon on the corner and not the nail salon one door in from the corner :) They were also accommodating to let me sit next to a friend who was getting a service at the same time. I don't live nearby but will definitely make my way back here for another service. I went for a simple gel mani but their nail art is incredible. read more

If I could rate 0, I would. I'm usually a gel X extension fan. But I was recommended the builder gel mani, which was supposed to protect my nails. I did not like the first builder gel set I received in April: the gel product was too thick, the shapes of the nails came out weird, it didn't add the length that I was hoping for, & the nail art chipped less than three days after service (side note: I did return for an art redo for that service under the 7 day satisfaction policy), but I dealt with the builder gel until my nails grew out and could be removed. I did not go back in May, as my nails were growing nicely & I could maintain them at home without paying salon prices. I booked an appointment for my birthday, June 27, for going back to the gel X extension set, since I wasn't a fan of how the builder gel worked from the April visit & in the time between. Instead, this service was moved to a builder gel mani, per the decision of the nail technician, on the day-of "to help protect my nails". Unfortunately, for this day's service, my nails aren't protected. I have multiple nails that are exposed, sharp & rough under the thick coat of misshapen and wacky lengths of builder gel. When I first came in for this appointment, I expressed my desire to keep my natural nails as long & pretty & as protected as possible but that my thumb nails would need a little extra love since they had chipped, the original builder gel peeled off of them first from the April appointment. Instead my nails were filed down so short that I have no natural nails left on my right hand. I worked so hard (self improvement, as I kicked the nasty habit of biting my nails with multiple visits to Lacquer Gallery) & have spent so much money (with 5 appointments at Lacquer Gallery over the past 6 months) to grow out my natural nails & keep them long. Now I have NO natural nail length left. My right hand is so short that my nail beds hurt & my hand is constantly shaking as a reaction to the super short length after months of longer nails. Another sad thing too is that my nails aren't the same shape or length across one hand, let alone consistent with my other hand, nor the same shape or length when both hands are compared together. My cuticles were cut in so deeply that I have an infection & I need antibiotics. At the end of the appointment, the nail technician didn't ask for feedback, I received no lotion, no cuticle oil, and the nail art wasn't finished, and some spots were already peeling, but the nail technician was running 20 min late for her next client, so I couldn't get it fixed immediately. I brought up to the nail technician during the appointment that there was color missing from parts of my nails, & then on closer examination after leaving the salon, I have builder gel missing from spots on my nails. I sincerely didn't notice how short they were until I left & tried to run my fingers through my hair & realize I have no nail length left. I called shortly after my appointment to express the displeasure with the length & shape & type of service, since it wasn't what I signed up for or wanted. The salon manager was away & unreachable but now has sent an email back that if I want a repair, I have to pay & schedule another service & they'll give me a discount for that new service... a discount?!?! I just spent $120 & have no nails left on my right hand & funky shaped nails... like who thinks button nubbins are a "cute" nail length?! & now I have to pay MORE to even have the bad builder gel mani removed?!?! I'm absolutely wrecked at the service I received & can't afford to pay more for a service that has already annihilated my natural nails. I am astounded at how bad of customer service I have received at trying to get a remedy for this grievance. My hands literally hurt from this service & the salon's response is pay more money to maybe get it fixed after putting the blame on me for the level of service that I received. read more

I have been here for 2 back to back gel manis now and am sooooo happy! Never really thought gel was for me but got my first from Jamie and she killed it, she explained everything she was doing the whole time which definitely made me feel like I chose the right service and was really educational. Came back today to remove those gels since they were grown out and Heather ATE DOWNNNNNNNNN literally the most flawless manicure I've ever gotten not a bump or ridge or anything in any nail!! Cool casual environment with 2 amazing techs now, excited to be back! read more

I just want to say, I love LG. I had my hair done once or twice years ago here then in recent months returned as a regular nail client. The staff from the reception team to the technicians have always been very kind. Shoutout to Shantel and Elizabeth for being so personable. I feel like I'm talking to an old friend every visit! The talent here is some of the best in the city and I am confident that if you are coming for nails, you will leave satisfied. read more

Vera is amazing! My nails are exactly what I wanted Lacquer is beautiful and the perfect place for a mani/pedi.

A good nail tech is hard to come by. I have searched this city, and all of the Columbus nail hashtags more times than I can count. Dedication and communication throughout the whole appointment is the most important thing to me. I come to nail techs with a lot of specific ideas, and I want someone who is willing to learn and be creative to make my vision happen, and that sometimes takes trial and error. Flynn at Lacquer is just that type of nail tech. Coupled with the cute vibes and professionalism of the appointment, it's worth the price, and it's actually far less than other options willing to do the same type of art that I want. I would definitely go back and see her again for acrylics-- especially with encapsulation. That's my favorite and it's her specialty. I respect this salon a lot. The nail and hair salons are two separate rooms, and I can't speak to the hair portion but it seems like the nail salon operates like a well-oiled machine. My only issues would be that it does feel super busy (for a reason), and they don't have massage chairs, so I'll go elsewhere for my pedis. Otherwise it's a an awesome, chic staple in the Columbus salon community. read more

Update to my previous review as I have tried more options at Lacquer Gallery: This is the best place to get your nails done hands down! I love Austin and Carolyn - they are so good at nail art and so sweet. I always have the best conversations and my nails last for 4-5 weeks easily. I also love getting my eyebrows, lashes, facials and waxing done at their Lacquer Gallery Skin - Makayla Davis saved my face after i started using retinol too readily. She is the best - so knowledgeable and kind. I love this place and won't go anywhere else! read more

Molly was super thorough and took time to make the base and tiny design perfect, something you don't always get during a nail appointment!

So this was my first time here and we didn't know that it actually is three different buildings! So the first building we went to on the corner was the wrong building and one of the stylists showed us where to go. She was sweet and super nice. I asked if they was hiring and she told me to ask the lady at the next building. So we walk across the street to the building that we needed to be at and once walking in the lady behind the desk was rude! My friend walked in first and greeted the receptionist and she looked up and said the usual "how may I help you" my friend said she has a appointment and the lady said ok and asked her if she wanted a water then o said I would she asked if I had a appointment I said no then she got smart and said " now you know u can't come back with her if u have no appointment you have to find some where else to go" now I know my mouth and I said ok and I walked out. Now my friend stayed and she told me that the lady was nasty towards her and she had a attitude. She told my friend "it states on our website that no visitors are allowed only clients being serviced". Now we never been to your site we only knew of this place because my friend followed her technician to her new salon to work in. Now as a fellow stylist customer service is top priority and most important. I probably will never come back here because of that lady idk her name but it did put a bad taste in my Mouth. My friend stated that if her technician wasn't working she would have left. read more
