How much do your lash tinting and extensions cost?

Our lash tints are $25 + our lash extensions start at $300!

Hi, how much is it for a gel acrylic fill?

Hi Libby! An acrylic fill pricing depends on the shape of your nails + if you need gel removal or not - a square fill + gel polish is $65 + a stiletto fill + gel polish is $75. Gel removal would be an additional $5 on top of that!

I was randomly assigned a hairstylist, Minnie, and it was like the stars in the universe aligned because we clicked right away. She asked me all about my hair and what I was looking for. I'm a wing it type of person but I did have some things in mind. I ended up getting a trim with some wisby longish bangs and she was able to keep my length which was awesome. At the end she mentioned the different products she used in my hair and sent me home with a "care card" with recommendations on when to return and who else to see if she wasn't in. The whole experience was lovely and I'll definitely be back in a few months!

As a result, I've had appointments with many of the women here and they all have done a fantastic job. The usual visit goes: I do a terrible job explaining what I want exactly (usually accompanied by a picture or two), they somehow decipher it and make their own suggestions, and I walk out loving my new color (and cut but I usually just trim a couple inches so nothing special there). Everyone's super nice and they're good at reading whether or not I want to chat or just have an hour or two of relative silence/escape from my hectic life. They also always suggest cheaper ways of doing what I want and I'm grateful for that (and it always looks amazing). They also always take into account my infrequency of visits and suggest things that will take less upkeep which is also appreciated. Picture is just the most recent haircut and color; sorry it's just half my hair but it might give you an idea! The only problem is that parking is a nightmare in the area. There are usually some free meters in the area (try a street down from the salon, next to the UDF) but if you're getting something that might take more than two hours, those two hour meters aren't super helpful.

I booked online with Jesse right before I moved out of state... he is amazing and gave me one of the best haircuts I've ever had. It's been about two+ months now and my hair still looks great! I told him I was moving to LA and thinking about going shorter. He actually said a longer length would be better for me so I could pull it off my neck when it's hot. And of course, he was right. He evaluated my hair and explained his thought process on the way he wanted to cut it. I told him to go for it! He was very communicative and thoughtful in regard to my low maintenance style. We talked about some fun color options I could try during my next visit and he even told me to text him when I'm back in town because he would make time for me to come in, even if he wasn't scheduled that day! Plus, after I told him I was heading out with my boyfriend for our last date in Columbus, he curled it and styled it in a fun/romantic way. He even tried to teach me how to curl my hair since I am clueless. All in all, a fantastic experience and I wish I could come in more regularly. Next time I'm in Columbus, Jesse and Pistacia Vera will be my top two priorities!

He gave me an American Balayage, which is like an ombré on steroids, in March at his precious salon location in Clintonville. The color grew out so beautifully and naturally that I didn't get my hair re-colored until December 1. And I only got two haircuts in those nine months because the haircut, too, grew out so nicely. I'm a graduate student, and Darren is always mindful of my budget. But because his haircuts last so darn long, I can afford to get fancier color. Also, I thought Darren was exaggerating when he said that a Brazilian Blowout would change my life. I have really frizzy hair, so a promise of "no frizz, and you'll roll out of bed every morning looking like you walked out of a salon" sounded impossible. But omg, it has seriously improved my life. No frizz, not even after CrossFit workouts in the summer humidity. I roll out of bed looking like I just had my hair done, and I have no split ends. It's ah-maze-ing. Darren is also a real sweetie, always fun to talk to and fun to watch while he's working. He works at the quick, efficient clip of someone who really knows their craft. He's the best!

Thanks to a sheer act of spontaneity I finally made it happen and Penzone made the cut. I just happened to be scrolling through my Yelp app looking for salons nearby and Penzone jumped out at me because this location has been there forever. I've also had my hair cut at one of their other locations forever ago and when I looked at their availability, they had an appointment the very next day at 5pm. I didn't even care who the stylist was, I just needed it done. I arrived right on time, checked in, and grabbed a beverage while I waited. It wasn't long before I was greeted by my stylist, Sage. She was easy to talk to, listened to what I wanted, and gave good advice and direction when I was tempted to do something I wasn't planning on doing. I knew exactly what I wanted, as I was looking to get the same cut I did last summer. Your basic long bob, about collar bone length. We did the washing and cutting and drying and cutting again and I was out of there in about an hour and a half. I'm really pleased with it and enjoyed Sage's approach so I made an appointment to come back in a few months. The price point was cheaper than the place I used to go to and I was way more satisfied.

This review is probably going to take an hour to write while I get used to typing with nails again. I last had acrylics over a year ago. I cut them off not because I was tired of them or couldn't afford them, but because I couldn't find a nail salon that I was happy with. Recently I decided I wanted them again and started to look online for a new salon. I liked the reviews I saw for Lacquer. They were close to where I lived, so I thought I'd give them a shot. Most of the issue I had with other salons was that they made me uncomfortable or made me feel unwelcome, even though I was giving them money for a service. I tense up when having my nails done or my hair cut; I don't know why. Probably the bats building nests in my head. But having a nail tech jerk my hand and snarl "Relax!" doesn't help. First, the salon itself: Located in Grandview. Not a lot of parking for the shop but you can easily find parking on the street if you don't mind a little walk. The salon was warm and welcoming. They had artwork all over the place. Free candy and coffee which I refused due to being on a keto diet. Scented candles and actual BOOKS, not just magazines, to read while you wait. That right there earned them three of the five stars I'm giving. Honestly, I have never been in a nicer salon, and it helped me to relax. I had always gotten acrylics and airbrush design before almost all salons stopped offering it. Today I wanted a full set of stilettos and polish and nail design. My tech was Marciela. (I hope I spelled that right.) She was very friendly and I could see right from the start that she was not going to treat me like an untrained housedog, as a lot of other salon techs have done. She took the utmost ... and I DO mean the utmost... care to make sure every nail was the right length and shape. When she did my cuticles I did not get the sensation that my hands were being pecked by angry birds, as I have in other salons. I knew I wanted Halloween colors but wasn't sure exactly what, and she offered some great suggestions to help me decide. As to the nail art, she did a Halloween cat on two nails and a spooky pumpkin on two others, while the rest were plain polish in purple and black. Her design art was as good as airbrush. And she was very patient, fun to talk to and even laughed at my silly jokes. If I decide to keep the nails, which will depend on whether I can get used to typing with them as my job requires, I will never go to any other salon but Lacquer. They have a new regular customer, for as long as they can stand me. read more

So I'm certain I'm bias, but whatever, LACQUER is my shizz... I found out about Lisa and (at the time) Julie through a friend of mine via Instagram and instantly knew I needed to go see them. I am a former acrylic junky who had taken years off and was getting into the new-ish gel 'craze' (I mean I own my own UV light and polishes...but gel services were crazy limited to Columbus). Made an appointment with Lisa and I haven't turned back since! I'm certain I'm coming back for the service, but you must understand it is much more than just getting my nails LACQUER'd every so many weeks...when you set out to create a whole atmosphere for your business I'm instantly sold. From my first appointment with Lisa in her 'two-seater' salon space at (name redacted to protect the innocent) to my next appointment in about a week with Julie, I know I am not only receive top notch service but also I am going to see my peepz and have a great time while doing so. Where else can you walk into, feel like you're instantly at home, and laugh like a maniac while getting your hands and feet polished to the GAWDZ? I'll wait for a bit while you ponder that... Yes, I have drank the LACQUER kool-aid, and am a self proclaimed addict. Sue me. I also get upset if I do not have their business cards in my wallet because I'm stopped all over the city and asked about my nails--I even have people who wait for what my next mani will look like (obsessed much)! I don't know about you, but there's a certain hometown pride when I'm miles away from Ohio and people stop me and want to gawk at my digits and gush about how unique they are...I mean duhh I only go to the beastiest nail salon/spa/hangout in the flipping world! In short: make an appointment, go enjoy yourself, don't be a jerk about it, and love all things LACQUER. read more

I was very skeptical simply because i have always gone to the same salon back home. I had heard great things about lacquer gallery from a coworker from nails to hair. I had called on VERY short notice because I had an important job interview coming up and they didn't have any openings BUT went that extra step to put me on a wait list in case anything came open. They called the day I hoping to get in and had an opening with the same girl that does my coworkers hair, so that alone put me at ease. I arrived at the salon and was greeted by the receptionist, She was sweet and attentive. My hair dresser Alyssa shortly came to get me. Before we even began, she sat with me and talked about what I wanted, really taking the time to hear my expectations and concerns. I was already impressed just by her attention to detail. Well let me say, impressed is an understatement because she was absolutely AMAZING. She made me feel comfortable, we had great conversation but also so genuine & kind. She gave me that extra confidence for my interview the next day that i was looking for because when you look good, you feel good. As long as I am living in Columbus, this is the place for any of my beauty needs. Prices are reasonable because you get what you are paying for and that is time and pure talent. Another plus, the owner must have great taste because the decor is ADORABLE! read more

I love spending my time at Lacquer. The space is absolutely beautiful and I always feel empowered and welcomed by the lovely people there. Snacks are aplenty, and drinks are always offered. I've been getting my hair done here for two years now, and as someone who jumped from stylist to stylist previously, it's SO nice coming back to Lacquer each time and feeling so welcomed. I recently started getting gel manicures, and had my second one last week with Katie! I'm trying to grow my natural nails out, and she was so helpful and knowledgeable. I'm a serial polish peeler, and she showed me exactly where she could tell this, and educated me on the harm that peeling my polish can do- no wonder I've never been able to grow my nails out!! My gel hasn't lasted too long without chipping a tiny bit, but I work in the service industry and my hands are constantly being used and beaten up, so I expected as much- it's still so much better than painting my nails every other day like before. The owner is also always around, which is awesome to see and makes me feel good that I'm supporting a local business run by a woman who is very clearly involved with every aspect.. she has built an amazing space to relax and unwind. Will continue to come back again and again for any service I need and recommend to everyone I know! read more

If I could give this salon more than 5 stars, I would! I booked a CBD facial with Kanoa after seeing a post in a local Facebook group asking for recommendations for the best facial technicians in Columbus -- out of around 40 responses, almost all of them recommended not only Lacquer Gallery, but specifically Kanoa by name, so I had to try her out. I was NOT disappointed; it was probably the best salon treatment that I've ever had! Kanoa was extraordinarily personable, skilled, and adaptable. She went out of her way to make me feel comfortable, proactively customized the skincare routine to my needs, provided high-quality care, and left my face feeling rejuvenated. In addition to her clearly being highly competent in her field, she is a joy to be around. I booked my next session with her before I even paid for my first one. Aside from this specific technician's excellence, Lacquer Gallery as a whole is worth the trip. The salon is impeccably clean; the interior decor is personality-filled, playful, creative, and cozy; and the receptionist was so helpful and kind. Truly, don't even bother going anywhere else. I'm so glad to have found this business and Kanoa specifically! read more

Ahh, where to start! My first appointment at Lacquer was for microblading done by Lisa, who is the owner of Lacquer. I can not say enough good things about this woman. She is the nicest and most down to earth person I have ever met. I immediately felt comfortable around her, not to mention she can work wonders on the brows. She takes her time and truly listens to what you want! She's basically the Jack of all trades! So last week I decided I would drive two hours to get my hair done. Yes, you heard that right! TWO HOURS! Lol I had a baylage done by Alyssa who is seriously in my opinion the saint of hair! I had a horrible incident a couple years ago where my hair was left in an awful state, therefore I have spent the past couple of years letting it get healthier. Alyssa took her time and truly listened to exactly what I wanted. She's down to earth, funny and kind. I have never been so happy/pleased with my hair! Do yourself a favor and go see Lisa and Alyssa! They are the best and I can assure you that you will not be disappointed. read more

I was super satisfied with many aspects of my experience at Lacquer Gallery. I went in to get my hair refreshed. I gave a pretty vague description of what I wanted (basically just take the golden yellow out of my blonde) and I received just that. I went to Samantha Johnson and although I'm biased because she's been my best friend for years now, she's genuinely a great hair stylist. She'll listen to what you want and try her best to achieve that while bringing up her professional opinion on what will work and what won't. I loved the atmosphere in Lacquer. There's the perfect amount of trendy decor mixed with art on the walls. It's great that they really thought out the building because it makes me want to go back because it was so unique. All the employees that were there seemed really nice and I noticed they would help each other out when needed, which was great to see from a customer experience perspective. I already plan on going back, and this time to get my nails done. I love that they do both services in 1 location! read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE going to Lacquer Gallery. Getting my nails done every month is a great form of self care. My go-to gel manicure stylist is Elizabeth. She was my first nail stylist at LG a couple of years ago and we just clicked. My mother also now goes to Elizabeth for her gel nail appointments. I trust Elizabeth to help me get out of my comfort zone with nail colors. We will do something some times called "Stylist Choice" where she picks a gel nail color for me. She hasn't steered me wrong yet. All of the staff at Lacquer Gallery are amazing at what they do. Elizabeth is booked AND busy for a reason! The LG-Nails atmosphere is very supportive, professional, efficient, but not rushed. They provide you a beverage when you arrive. They great you and check you out with a smile. 10s across the board. I love going to Lacquer Gallery and scheduling with Elizabeth has made my nails look so wonderful. read more

I have been going to Lacquer Gallery for years so I can't believe it took me this long to write a review!! I have tried all kinds of services - manicures and pedicures, nail art, facials, massage, and spray tans. My nail angel, Elizabeth Whiteside, is the best there is. She approaches her craft with such thoughtfulness and care, it is really a joy to work with her! She has continued to gain new certifications and master new techniques since I've started seeing her, and offers dry manicures and builder gel in addition to regular and gel polish. On top of being an incredible nail savior, she is hilarious, so easy to talk to, and always caught up on our shared Bravo shows Bottom line, she's a queen, the vibe and quality of Lacquer is top notch, and if you book an appointment with her, you won't be disappointed.

I wrote a previous review about their manicures. I'm not married to one specific nail artist so I can say that all of them do an amazing job. I've never left unsatisfied. I've also been lucky enough to see Kayla Ryan for my hair. Not only is she able to decipher EXACTLY what I want to do to my hair, it looks amazing after. My hair is wavy/curly/has a mind of its own and she is always able to give a great cut which -- as other curly-haired people know -- is incredibly hard to find. Kayla also checks in consistently during the appointment to make sure she's doing exactly you want. She's super easy to talk to and it makes the appointment a breeze. I've had some...not great experiences with other salons in Columbus and it's really nice to be able to come to Lacquer for any service and know you'll be leaving with a great result. read more

As a new customer, I'm already a huge fan! I went to Lacquer for the first time a few weeks ago because I am a customer of Ciarra Bonidie, who recently started working there. The whole atmosphere is so cool and unique. I loved the vibe as soon as I walked in the door. I got a pedicure and a gel mani, which were both awesome. The customer service by the reception staff and Ciarra were nothing short of amazing. Super warm and welcoming! The service was great and I can tell that Ciarra is really happy there, which makes me so happy! I'm glad she found a place she, and now I, can call home. I can't wait to go back again in a few weeks for my next gel mani. I know I'll become a regular for nails, but I do hope to try the hair salon at some point too. Lacquer is amazing and I can't recommend it enough. read more

This is the only salon I go to. I have been going to Samantha Johnson for hair services for a while now and she does a great job. She's well versed in the trending styles and colors. She's great at listening to what you're wanting and will always offer her professional suggestion of ways to achieve it. I also go to Lacquer for nail services. Both times I have booked with Julie and she's been great! I usually just get plain polish but she has done a great job making sure it's applied perfectly. My gel polish has always lasted well over the recommended 2 weeks with no chips. Not only are the services great but the staff is always nice, and it's in an amazing building with cool decorations. There are so many other services that Lacquer offers that I cannot wait to try in the future!! read more

Before I knew what a quality cut/color/style was like, I would just walk into whatever salon I was closest to when I thought, "Hm, I think I need a haircut." I was never the stylist-loyal gal until I met Zoey a while ago. I literally followed her to Lacquer Gallery when she switched salons; something I never dreamed I would ever be able to do. Finding your "hair lady" (or man) is life-changing. Now I am a huge fan of Lacquer Gallery as well. This salon is wonderfully unique. You can count on feeling amazing after every visit. I highly recommend Lacquer Gallery, and I highly recommend Zoey. All you have to do is tell her what you want, and you will look better than expected. I even trusted her to color and cut my hair two days before a wedding I was in. Crazy, right? read more

I absolutely love this place! I went with my mother, who had never had a professional manicure before, a few weeks ago and we were both so pleased. The atmosphere is really beautiful, hip, and bright and the staff that we interacted with were all professional and fun. They made my mom feel right at home and even helped her choose a simple color that complimented her since she had no idea where to start. About a month later and her nails still look like they were done yesterday, the products they use are really high quality and the service and atmosphere can't be beat. I'm used to going to salons where the conversation is always sort of awkward and the environment feels more sterile than clean and welcoming - this was a really nice change. I will definitely be back! read more

I just moved to Columbus and was looking for a new salon. I follow Lacquer Gallery on instagram and saw they had a special on a variety of services. I immediately booked a wax and eyelash perm/tint. Both with Taylor. The wax was first, and it's always awkward, especially the first session. Well, Taylor was nothing but professional and kind. She made me feel comfortable and at ease from the start. The (Brazilian) wax went smooth (ha) and I was out of there in no time. I've always wanted to try a lash perm, and I'm so glad I did. The session lasted about an hour, and I left with gorgeous lashes that don't require mascara or a curler. Again, Taylor was awesome and I've already booked my next appointments. Definitely try this girl gang out, you won't be disappointed! read more

I had an amazing experience at Lacquer which was recommended to me by my sister who gets her hair done and had recently had a facial there. They were having a special on facials in March so I scheduled an appointment with Toria. The facial was customized to my skin type. Toria had taken the time to get to know my skin, my treatment routine, and different products I used. The facial was phenomenal and made me feel relaxed and refreshed afterwards. What was even better was all the advice and tips that Toria had given me about combating my difficult skin without pushing expensive products on me. I was comfortable talking with her throughout the process and definitely am taking her advice into account. Would highly recommend scheduling with her! I know I will be back! read more

Went in today for the first time after driving by for almost a year! I found an appointment online and everyone had great reviews so I just booked with the first available tech. Kristin was awesome! Super friendly right from the start. I had booked to take my gels off too but had already done it and it was no problem! I wanted a matte set with a marble decorative finger and she did amazing! Also got the paraffin wax on my hands and they felt awesome after. I had also asked the salon if they could fit me in for a brow wax and sure enough again super accommodating and was paired with Kanoa. She was friendly and fun and my brows look great. Overall A+ experience. Salon is beautiful and people are all friendly! Now I know why it is always full with happy clients! read more

Lisa, Julie, Kelly, Emily, Katie and Maricela are all amazing, professional, courteous and just darn good. From the moment you step in to the salon, you feel at home. This is not your run of the mill salon, Lisa and her crew work extremely hard at a making the place spotless, the amenities are impeccable and the art is avant grade and always changing. If you are looking for attention to detail, polish that will last, engaging conversation and genuine interaction this is the place. Their prices are reasonable especially for the quality. The nail art work is unique and not what you find in Columbus, Ohio. If Lacquer Modern Nail Salon was the standard for what nail salons should be then this would be the only salon in town. I would highly recommend Lacquer. read more

For the past several years I have been trying to get my nails done professionally, but nothing has lived up to all the Instagram photos I'm always see . One day at work one of my customers had these artistic beautiful nails that she said she got done at lacquer gallery and I just had to check it out! When I walked into their nail salon I was instantly impressed. The vibe was warm and the ladies were very kind and helpful. Watching them be done was like watching a beautiful painting come to life! She was able to do a very intricate unique design with a clean polished finish . I really wish I would've known about them for my wedding but I do know that I won't be getting my nails done anywhere else but lacquer gallery from here on! #supportyourlocalgirlgang ! read more

Lacquer Gallery is my happy place. I have gotten my hair done (balayage and cuts) and a spray tan (first time ever!). You pay for high quality services by amazing women. They are my hair goddesses because they know what's in style and what you're looking for (aka what you've pinned on Pinterest). Alyssa and Devan are wonderful. I am happy with my hair every time I go there and love how good I feel after leaving. I call it my "layers and life chats" time; relaxing, casual, chic, chill vibes that make you want to hang out there. While my hair was processing, I cozied up in a sunlit corner with a book and sparkling water provided by Lacquer, and just indulged in the good music and conversation. Ladies: if you need a little Saturday retreat...go to Lacquer. read more

Awesome family run business with friendly staff and great service! My fiancé and I have been here…read moretwice now and it has always been a great experience! They have always done a fantastic job, the location is very clean & COVID cautious, and this time around they remembered us treating us to a complimentary glass of champagne! * They do get busy so I would recommend making an appointment or, at the least, calling ahead. * They give a 20% discount to healthcare workers and teachers so be sure to mention if you work in these fields! Definitely recommend visiting them if you're looking for a great experience!

He filed the heck out of my nails. They are so frail I can't do my job properly. My nails are ripping because he file too much. He expected a tip and skipped the total for me to enter a tip and watched me. He charged me $82 . The wife defended him when he scammed me and told me I shouldn't get jell next time because it is expensive. It made no sense. Do not go here because they scam and will file heck out of your nails. Update: My thumb nail is ripping and the nail bed because of Nails on 5th.

They have a huge selection of colors for both gel and regular polish. They even put together seasonal color palettes to help inspire your selections. The amount of glitter, stickers, stencils, nail art they have/can do is amazing and they're always adding to their collection. Whatever you want, they have it! I have seen many nail techs here and they are all great. They take their time, listen to requests, and check in throughout the process to make sure you're happy with their service. They are also kid friendly! My 6 yo daughter has had manicures and pedicures here and they are so patient, because as we know, sometimes kids fidget lol! She always asks to go back, especially for the pedicure. If you want healthy, well manicured nails, this is your place! You will not regret it!

I sat for 5 additional minutes then put my shoes on to leave. As I get to my car I realize my the polish on my big toes were not fully set and got messed up from placing my shoes on. I walked back in the salon and showed Bailey. Celine stated Bailey's next client was there and they were late already so unless I come the next morning there is nothing else that could be done. No offerings to have new client soak while she touch up my toes and no additional remedies were suggested if I couldn't come back another day. The customer service was severely lacking. I won't be returning.
