I went in asking specifically for French tips with chrome squiggles and one silver chrome bow. I showed them what I wanted, but the final result was very disappointing. The lines on the French tips were messy and uneven, the shape of my nails wasn't consistent, I got a cut from a file, and they didn't have the materials I asked for -- no silver chrome or 3D painting gel, even though I was told this would all be available. They didn't let me know until the very end, and they didn't offer any alternatives or adjustments. It felt rushed and unprofessional, and I left unhappy with how they looked. I paid $57 for a design I didn't actually get, and the quality doesn't match the price. I expected better communication and effort. Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend this salon based on my experience. There not the worst but definitely not what I expected and not worth the money. read more

Amazing pedicures every time! Highly recommend Ford. They take their time and actually massage your legs and feet. Never felt pressured to select all the crazy add-ons either! Thank you! read more

Nice & clean inside, not fancy or big- but very reliable. Always happy with my dip manicures & gel pedicures here. Have been going to this nail salon for a couple of years. Kim & Katie do a great job, & Ford is awesome on pedis! Henna & the other girls always do a nice job too (very meticulous & making sure the mani or pedi looks great!) Glad this place is close to us, but would drive further if it wasn't. They give a little discount for cash payments too.. nice! Note: Sometimes there's a wait, especially late afternoon/early evening.. . But always worth it when I'm not in a big time crunch. read more

Don't try and make an appointment. It doesn't hold. Try and go early and on weekday, If possible Otherwise the staff and the pedicures are great! read more

Been going to Lovely Nails every now and then for the last year. I sometimes have a good experience and sometimes don't... this nail salon is always busy and the workers work very hard. I truly only like when Kim does my nails! She's really good at what she does and is always fun to talk to while I get my nails done! Definitely advise checking it out and asking for Kim! She will hook you up! Pedis are also really good from here! Reasonably priced and always feel so good! read more

Fine experience until the end when the guy doing my gel polish decided to paint the last layer up on to my cuticles. The first two coats looked fine so I stopped watching carefully and was talking to a friend. By the time I realized how horrible they looked he had already dried them and done top coat. I have gel polish all over my skin and cuticles. Will not be back. He seemed hurried the entire time and the outcome was a very bad paint job and I wasted $$. read more

Since I moved from CA I have not found someone that does my pedicure correctly I suffer from ingrown toe nails and Today I went for bad ingrown on my toe nail and CHI did an amazing job she was able to get it out. She was nice and gentle with my toes. The place looks clean the staff is friendly as well. I'm definitely coming back. Thank you CHI read more

So I went into this nail salon because they did a decent job on my nails the first time; but this second time I went in for just a basic mani/pedi with regular polish. I arrived for my appointment 10 minutes early and ended up waiting for 40 minutes before someone even sat me into a pedicure chair. I then waited in that chair for another 15 minutes before anyone even came over to me. At this point, I had gel on my toes that needed soaked off, and no one had even filled the bucket with water for me to at least soak while waiting. When the man came over to me, he put a long strip of cotton over both of my toes, and squirted the acetone on it and just left me sitting there for another 5-10 minutes. When he finally started on my pedicure, I had told him I had an ingrown on my right big toe and asked him if he could carefully remove it, which he replied that he would try his best. After a minute of digging into the side of my toe, it is now more red and swelled than it was when I went into the salon. This man also got up halfway into my massage to answer his phone and pick up his DoorDash order and then another woman took over and rushed to paint my toenails. She then took me to another chair to start my manicure, which was the most awful manicure I have ever had. She rushed through it, AND did not file my nails even, and left them more jagged and rough than when I came in. On top of this, she didn't even clean off all the polish she got on my skin, AND cut my cuticle on my thumb making me bleed!! Not only did she not apologize, but she snipped my other thumb as well! Let's just say that I could have done a WAY better job on my nails at home. Will NOT be coming here again. read more

I have been to the lovely nails on Emerson and Southport and I love it. You really can't beat the prices, they are always so nice, and they really take their time with you. If you're in a hurry it may not be the place to go , the last time I was there they massages my feet and calves for 30 min. i Love this place. I have done eyebrow waxing, and gel mani pedis every time and always love it! I have referred several people to lovely nails and always hear great feedback. I recommend Le if she's available. Shes so sweet and kind and took great care of my nails even when I was nit picking . Le is amazing ! There is a male nail tech there who did my nails when I was pregnant, he was also very kind and very good with painting ! I have had overall great experiences with Lovely nails. my last appointment I made an appointment with another salon and waiting an hour and a half past my appointment time. called lovely nails and they got me right in before I ever picked my polish and apologized for me having a rough experience at another salon when that obviously wasnt there fault, but they took extra care to turn my day around ! love this place ! My toes lasted a solid 4 weeks ! Love love love read more

So I went to lovely nails because Signature nails across the street was booked. BIG MISTAKE. I got a full set, a pedicure, and eyebrows. A man who's name I don't remember did a nice job on the pedicure. Took his time, was gentle all that good stuff. Then Katie the owner did my nails. They were sub par for what I'm use to and she cut me twice. Then she did my eye brows which were fine. When we got to payment she told me $70 but when I pulled out my card she told me $84???? Apparently she told me the "cash discount" price. What kind of tax evasion shop is this? The worse part about my experience was a surprise that came a week and a half later. MY TOENAIL CAME OFF!!! Ladies! WTF! I have never in my life had a toenail just come off like it was false lashes! I went to trim my nails and my second toe's nail just kept coming with the clippers. I don't have a history of this, no foot fungus or weird trips into the jungle to contract some weird toenail-falling-off-disease either. Needless to say I was freaked out and will not be going back. EVER. read more

So, although this place didn't have the best reviews - I took a chance - and it turned out great! I went there on a Wednesday around 4:30 and was able to get immediately sat down. So on a not so great note, the manager yelled at me to sit down when I was looking for a gel color. Then immediately told me to stand up and pick out a color. That was odd, but whatever, maybe she was confused? Anywho, my nail tech was older and really took her time. (Actually like an hour just for gel color.) But I would prefer a slow, good job, than a speedy, crappy job. My nail shape isn't exactly what I asked for, but again, overall she did a great job. It was $20 for gel color only, and if I was in that area again, in need of a nail color, I would return here again! read more

Lovely Nails - One week later, my gel color ONLY (I did not get a full mani) looks great! - Nail Salons Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

I've been at Katie and Fore's salon for a dozen years. I love it here. I love relaxing and watching the the relaxing tv shows. They offer beverages. Katie and several others are fantastic technicians. I always ask for Fore for a pedicure. He's the best in town. Gentle, and takes his time. Long massages on legs with lotion, oil, hot stones, and hot towels at no extra cost. It's an avaerage size salon so they are busy. You may have to wait if you go during busy times. If you have an important event or wedding go here and ask for Katie to do your nails, and Fore should do your pedicure. Sometimes on difficult colors Katie will jump in and paint for people....she's that nice and good. Katie speaks excellent English too. If you're ever not happy they will fix it without question at no cost. They are nice! All conversation is friendly and uplifting. What a blessing to have them in Southport. Across from Target. read more

Suffice it to say every visit I've had to wait an hour when they say 15 minutes. And today! Chick straight up cut me with the electric filer while filing under my nails and apologized and kept going! Never washed it never band aided it. Nothing. She still charged me full price and gave me a band aid at the end. She cut through the whole top layer and when I press on it you can see the second layer of my finger below. Now I have a fantastic band aid covering the nail I just got done. Mad as hell and didn't want to make a scene but now I wish I had. Just take your money across the street to signature nails. Make an appointment. I should have just waited the extra 2 days. The only positive is several days later my normal paint job still looks pretty amazing. read more

I went to Lovely Nail just under two weeks ago. I was treated by my cousins during my bachelorette weekend with a mani and pedi. Honestly, amazing. I was so relaxed. Firs time getting my nails done professionally, and I'm glad it was such a smooth experience. I was a bit nervous tbh. When I was younger I use to watch my mom get her nails done, but never have I had my own nails done. They were lovely to chat with too. They weren't overly talkative yet they acknowledged you. I wish I knew who did my nails because I'd like to make appointments with her more often. One cousin had a not so good experience with her mani. I won't name drop but it was an older woman. She didn't ask my cousin if she wanted her nails trimmed or not, she went too fast with the polish so it was bumpy. My girl however was awesome. Very patient and courteous. She even put my wedding ring back on after my arm massage was done. How adorable! :) the two men that worked there were just as good with their work. The guys did my two cousins pedicure. read more

I call and make appointments yet I still have to wait 30-60 min after I get there because they take walkins first. It's happened every time. I love the people but not their business practices. :/ read more

Love this place !! The pedicure is by far the best I have ever gotten even compared to a high end spa! I always have great results and even if something needs corrected they will make sure it's right ! read more

I can say I got a good mani pedi BUT they did not wash the pedicure chair or spa that was right next to me, Katie drained the water and then let another women sit right after someone else! read more

My first experience was on a Monday around 1150am. I got right in and had Ford do my pedi. He did an amazing job and made me relaxed and comfortable during the pedi. I had KATE do a full set, which I do sport cut square with curved edges. She did a great deal. Overall I thought They did a wonderful day. Their place was clean and well kept. Staff was friendly and pollute. I will be going back!! read more

Overall, I would say average. My nails look pretty good but I waited a decent amount of time (they only had one technician working--it was a Tuesday afternoon but they did have several customers) and the price seemed a little bit high in comparison to the competition. Update: After a week, my gel set have held up longer and look nicer than any other I've gotten elsewhere! I'll definitely be returning! read more

I've been coming here for years. Great service and as always my manicure and pedicures are wonderful. Thank you Chi, Katie and Ford!!

I've been getting my nails done here for over eight months but I was very disappointed with my last visit. I had someone new doing my nails that I've never had do them before. I became nervous when I realized that she wasn't doing the shape of nail that I had requested and many of them were uneven. After I had the nerve to politely request that she even them out, I could tell that she was annoyed and offended by my simple request. It was very uncomfortable and I tried to reassure her that I liked them even though I did not. She began applying the color and it looked different than I had expected but I didn't want to rock the boat and ask for a different color. Many of my nails are still uneven in shape and on top of everything else, I was charged an extra dollar for making my payment with a debit card instead of cash! How are you going to charge me for paying with a debit card?! Absolutely ridiculous. Needless to say, I will be cutting my ties with this salon. read more

I drove an hour for my 5:15pm appointment and then did not get started until 7:15. Therefore, I told the lady that I wanted gel no up charge to compensate for my time and she said okay and then proceeded to give me gel and at the end charged me fully and I mentioned again what I've went through and she said "no sorry full price." Never going back again and don't recommend!!! read more

I hadn't been to Lovely Nails in a while because I moved and it just wasn't as convenient for me. I was always pleased with my services. I'm also a non practicing licensed nail tech myself, so I'm a little particular. Le did my pedicure and gel mani. She's quiet, and works hard yet still kind and I didn't feel rushed. I kept falling asleep during both services they were so nice and the meticulous work is much appreciated. The wait was a little bit longer than I was told but I just ran to Kohls to get some things real quick and came back and got started. It was worth the wait. Thank you Le and I will see you in two weeks. Oh also they offer a cash discount. For the people complaining about them adding more to your credit payment, it's because businesses have to pay a percentage on every credit/debit transaction. That's why they offer the cash discount. I don't blame them one bit. Stop and get cash. Not a big deal. read more

In a word: bad. My sister and I dropped by for manicures on a rainy Saturday. It was busy, but we were told 10 minutes. I soon realized that everyone who walked in was told "10 minutes", and some ended up waiting 45 minutes. My sister and I waited 30 minutes for our manicures. Frankly, I do my own nails better than the guy who did my nails. He kept getting up and leaving to answer the phone or check people out. He hurried through my manicure, gave me a 12 second massage and slopped nail polish on my fingers. No bueno. All in all, I expect customer service to be lacking in places like this, but I expect a decent job done. Nail polish on the skin, poorly shaped nails, and uneven paint job? I will not be back. read more

The cosmetologist took her time giving me a detailed pedicure- including a deep tissue massage, hot rocks, and a warm towel. She was friendly and treated me with care! Not to mention my toenails look great. The facility is very clean and the prices are affordable. Highly recommend!! read more

It was 7:30 and I was in desperate need of a pedicure. My normal places were either closed early or completely packed. Lovely nails took me right in despite the fact that they closed at 8pm. This might be one of the pedicures I have ever received. Not only do my feet and toes look amazing, but the massage and hot stones completely enhances the standard pedicure. Most places will charge extra for the stones or hot towels, but not here! Highly recommend! read more

I appreciate the neatness and general cleanliness of the place, everything seems hygienic and safe. I even visited their restroom=) However, I agree with the other reviewers that when too many people pop in, you can expect a sloppy job. I've never seen one person trying to serve 3 or more people simultaneously! I was lucky to walk in when there were no other customers, but by the time I was leaving the place got packed, and the speed noticeably increased (=the quality decreased) so I decided not to do my nails on that day (I wanted both pedi and mani, but changed my mind about mani..) I wish they had 1 master for 1 customer, not 1 for 3-5. Otherwise a nice place. read more

I've been going to Lovely Nails for years. I highly recommend it! Katie and her team are very friendly and efficient and keep their salon very clean. They recently renovated and got new massage chairs. My nail tech is Chi. She is very meticulous and always does a good job on my nails. read more

Based on recommendations, I went to Lovely Nails. In general and a first glance, I felt the space was adequate. However, as my services progressed, I noticed magazines were still on display. Behind the reception area was in complete disarray. The quality of my manicure and pedicure was poor, brush overs on to skin (both gel mani and pedi), glops of polish, uneven nail and obviously, no touch ups. My 34 year old daughter asking me if I did my nails was the icing on the cake. read more

Waited an hour and a half to get a manicure/pedicure. The lady seemed nice enough but they were very obviously understaffed. She had me take off my own nail polish (I realize this isn't a HUGE deal but technically that's part of what I'm paying for...) Going to the nail salon should be a relaxing "treat yourself" kind of experience but it definitely wasn't that. The prices aren't bad but you must definitely weigh in the wait time and not so amazing quality of nails. I was in this nail salon for over two hours and will not be coming back. read more

Terrible service. My acrylic nails are uneven and she didn't paint the tips which I didn't notice- so I went back within the hour and they were so rude. The lady said, " well I never pain the tips"... I said but I want them painted?? I'm paying for this with my hard earned money I'm gonna have an expectation. Ridiculous- will NOT be back. read more

This is the worst spa experience ever! They don't use any plastic bags in the bins when they do your pedicure.You are washing the tools in my foot bath water?!?!? What the fuck! Then you rub lotion onto my feet that was sitting in the dead skin bath? I guess you get what you are paying for. Cheap manicure for cheap service. read more

Walked away unsatisfied with he gel manicure I received today...so sloppy that I'm considering going elsewhere tomorrow to get it redone. After waiting for an hour and a half, I was given a hasty manicure with tools that did not look sterilized. Overall, bad experience and would not recommend! read more
