Lovely Nails - Lovely Nails regular manicure. (Opi Tutti Fruiti) - Nail Salons Near Me - Champaign, Illinois

The pedicures my husband and I got were good. The full set I got from the guy that sits in the front was awful! Worst experience yet and I've had some pretty awful experiences. This guys breath smells sooooo bad! You find yourself hoping he doesn't want to talk to you. Every time he opens his mouth you can see all of his rotten teeth and his breath matches! Horrid smell!!!! It also took three hours to get a full set because he kept stopping and helping people who arrived after me. He literally did two other ladies nails while doing mine and both of them left before me. He forgot everything I asked for. I asked for the pink and white gel powder. I got acrylic. I asked for a design. I got the tips painted. He gave me the silver stripe across it, asked if I wanted it and I said sure. Then he charged me $5 for a quick swoosh of silver glitter polish! By 5 days after my nails were falling off. I thought maybe he was having a bad day. I'll try one more time. Went in for a full after 7 days from getting the brand new full set. And he still did just as bad. It still took two hours for a fill!!!!!!!!! One nail fell off as her was filling it and he charged me $5 for a repair!!!! Seriously!? Your shoty work means I have to pay more?! I left and decided then and there to never return. 5 days later my nails were falling off again. So I picked them all off and had a green fungus growing on my nail from them!!! This has happened in the past to me but after many fills. I literally had these nails less than two weeks!!!! Appalling!!!! Diva nails is the best in town, don't waste your money here. read more

Best place in the uiuc area! I've only been here once but honestly it has been the best my nails have looked after getting them done. I got a full set of acrylics (with regular polish, it was $28) and they were able to help me right away without an appointment. They don't have a huge selection of colors other than the usual colors. I had Kim and she did an amazing job. I honestly don't have an complaints about my nails, which even with my regular salon back home I usually have at least one. She made them thin enough to where they look like my actual nails and spend a good amount of time while also being efficient to make sure they looked good. Would recommend!! read more

Lovely Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Champaign, Illinois

I received a gel manicure from Lovely Nails in mid-December. I came in on a weekday afternoon and had about a 15 minute wait - completely worth it for the quality service I received. All of the nail technicians were extremely friendly and did an exceptional job! My manicure took about 40-45 minutes and looked fantastic! My nail technician worked very quickly and cautiously. My nails were perfect! The salon was very clean and has a calm ambience. I used to go to Anna's Nails, but will definitely be switching to Lovely Nails as my regular salon! read more

Lovely Nails - Gel Manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Champaign, Illinois

The best place to get your nails done hands down. I currently live in Bloomington and still drive over because honestly I could never trust someone else to do my nails. They do an amazing job and for the most part it's fairly quick! I have never left disappointed, their salon is always clean and top shape. They're so friendly and make it a very warm and welcoming environment. I've been going here for almost 4 years and I can't imagine going anywhere else/ read more

Love this place. I got a full set of acrylics here. It was quick and nicely priced. I only have one thing to say and it's to make sure when they are sizing your acrylics that they are the same size. My thumb on one side is clearly larger than the other. read more

For $15 bucks (pre-tip) you get a nice manicure ! I walked in around 12:30 on a Friday and got seated basically right away. My tech was quick and efficient, not a whole lot of chit chat-- but that's fine with me. She was nice and took care of my nails that were definitely ROUGH(lol!). Will be back. :) read more

My nails were done fast, they were beautiful and they were done exactly as I asked. I will visit them again, definitely. With that being said, although they understood and spoke English, they spoke in their native tongue and laughed among themselves almost the entire time I was there and my daughter and I felt pretty uncomfortable. This is why I only gave 4 stars instead of the five. read more

Lovely Nails - My nails although they had grown out a bit. - Nail Salons Near Me - Champaign, Illinois

The fact I had to wait 2 hours for the service I came for is ridiculous. They claim someone had an appointment but she didn't state she did and when the lady called her to the chair looked at me confused. So I'm thinking she just didn't want to do the manicure or whatever. Not only that they were "too busy" to stop service to run a customers card and had a customer do it herself. No words. I won't go there again. I could have gone somewhere else and been out of there in 30-45 minutes. You don't keep customers by making them wait hours, and the manicure wasn't even that good for the amount of time I waitied. read more

Angel is the best...since I start coming at the shop I had no complaints about my manicure and pedicures.She take her time and make sure that you are satisfied.I will recommend lovely nails!!! read more

I was wrong in my check in. Basic pedi is 25. Kids 20. This is to make up for that. The chairs are weak still.

The only salon I have been going to for the last two years! The staff is beyond friendly and the salon is always clean. Not only do you leave with a wonderful set of nails, you leave with a smile on your face. As for some of the negative reviews, I just wanted to clarify: a gel set still mixes gel powder, perhaps your were wanting dip pot or shellac. Anyways, to this day this is the only place I go to and will go to! read more

My nails looked AWFUL going in after over a month of not filling my acrylics. I came into Lovely Nails without an appointment hoping for the best, and I got it! They sat me down right away and were so so friendly and efficient. I used to be a regular at another place on Neil but after their kindness and doing such a good job I will definitely be returning here. read more

Has the best price to service ratio in the CU area. Their services are basic, but I have never been disappointed. I have gotten my acrylics removed here, and they are very gentle and thorough. All the other times I've gotten dip nails, and they have a solid selection of colors. It's quick and convenient! read more

I'm Definitely coming back, wonderful service, and very friendly. Very relaxing and you have to try the color change polish. read more

I wanted to wait a bit after getting my mani to post. Wanted to make sure it lasted...lol and it has! So went in a couple weeks ago for a fill and gel mani. The lady was great I knew I wanted some designs and she had lotsa ideas. The mani went fast and I love how they turned out and 2 weeks later no chips or cracks or wear off on my tips. This will definitely be my go to place whenever I'm in town visiting the BF and need my nails done. read more

Lovely Nails - My nails! - Nail Salons Near Me - Champaign, Illinois

I wanted to get a gel mani and pedi and since my friend came here before and said it was good, I decided to give Lovely nails a try. I went here with my friends on a Tuesday afternoon at 4 to all get walk in gel manicure, a manicure, and a pedicure. My friend called ahead on Saturday to try and book the three of us an appointment to which they said on the phone that they don't take them. So we walk in to the nail salon, and is pretty busy. I walk in, telling the lady what we wanted to which she said ok. We pick our colors and two of us sit in the waiting area while the other goes and gets her toes done. The two of us are sitting here, waiting, and none of the ladies update us on when we would get our nails done or how long the wait is. We also saw multiple people (older than us) walk in "with appointments" to which the ladies let them bypass us. We waited for a WHOLE HOUR and still have not been taken. One of the ladies FINALLY finished and offered one of us to take a seat, and at that point, we decided that this place was not worth the time it took and said "no." We got no apology for the time we sat waiting and no acknowledgment when we left. This place has horrible management considering they said that they did not take appointments but now with other customers they do???? Waste of my time, do not recommend. There are plenty of other nail places that have much better service. read more

This is my go-to spot for pedicures! The technicians are always very nice and do a great job. I always leave relaxed and know that my feet are taken care of. They are skilled and know what they are doing! read more

I went here for a gel set. DO NOT GO HERE. The lady lied straight to my face and gav e me an acrylic set I had done a lot of research before going in to make sure i got gel instead of acrylic because acrylic is more damaging to your nail bed. I was confused and confirmed with her 4 times but continued because i didn't want to make a scene thinking maybe i was wrong. Gel is a premade gel that is applied directly to the nail without mixing. Acrylic mixes a powder and a strong smelling liquid and is then applied to your nail. What she did to my nails was acrylic, and i'm angry that i not only paid more for the experience but that i was lied to my face about what was being done to my body. Who knows what else they lie about and how sanitary they are. read more

This is the first nail salon I tried since moving to the Champaign/Urbana area and I was very pleased with my choice. I walked in with a friend on a Thursday evening and we were seating right away. The staff is very friendly, quick and neat. My no chip manicure still looks perfect 2+ weeks later. I definitly recommend this salon. read more

Love this nail salon! Super clean and everyone takes their time, which is refreshing since most places rush your service. Good selection of nail polishes to choose from. The massaging chairs are awesome! Will be coming back again and again. read more

I went there and showed the picture that I wanted to the lady that seemed to be in charge, then when told I would have to wait I chose to wait for 45 minutes and when it was my turn the lady informed me that she wasn't able to do what I wanted done to my nails I wasted 1 hour of my time and $20 read more

I am happy with how my nails look and I was very happy we didn't have to wait for service, as most nail places you wait 10-15 minutes. I only give three stars because they hardly interacted with us and they were speaking across the room with each other. I felt that was a little rude. It is understandable speaking to the person next to you but not across the room while you are with clients. Very minimalistic place and they do not use new tools every time. Had I known this I wouldn't have gone there. That's not very sanitary in my opinion. So yes my nails look great but because of the other factors I will not be returning. read more

I like this place but they have just a few techs so you wait and wait. I stopped trying

Great place! Clean facility and the ladies are all so nice! They all take their time and do a great job

I had my nails done on 8/28/2015.and the women riped my old nails off and didn't soak them to get them off.i wasn't to happy with this treatment. and the people talk among them selves and not to customers. not to happy to say the least about them.i have had good work done until yesterday.please have them soak your nails and not rip them off. wasn't to happy to say the least. read more

Stopped here for a pedi/gel acrylic fill in before heading back to STL. Super friendly staff & careful about their work. Good place!

This is a wonderful place to get your nails done. Kim and Twee are professional, friendly, and know what they are doing! Their salon is clean and well run. You won't be disappointed!! read more

Terrible experience!! I went on a Sunday morning, 10 minutes after they opened. The place was packed and instead of asking me to come back, the owner (I think) insisted it would only be a few minutes. While he was in the middle of doing the woman next to me's gel polish, he started to do my nails. I thought this was a big no no, but it only got worse. When I walked in I told him I wanted a full set of gels, with tips. He started to push my cuticles back and buff my nails while the woman's nails were curing. He then got out two more curing machines for me when i realized that he was trying to rush me out of there and just give me a gel manicure. I stopped him and told him that I wanted a full set. He became pushy and said that a he manicure was a better option. I stated I was going on vacation the next day and he insisted on only a gel manicure because he had already buffed and pushed back my cuticles which doesn't come with a full set. He finally gave in and started putting the tips on. They came out extremely uneven and he left them. I kept telling him to even them out and he just said they are even, they are perfect. He then forced me into getting a matching pedicure which did not actually match at all! In addition, the pedicure was just a terribly done job of painting my toes in a hurry to get me out of there. All in all, I paid 15$ for my toes to be all thick and chip within 24 hours, looking like crap for my trip, while my finger nails were uneven and did not match my toes. Finally, he charged me an extra 8$ to push my cuticles back, even though it was his mistake for not listening to what I wanted. He was pushy and overall unprofessional! Never again! I wish I could give a 0 star review, that's how bad my experience was. read more
