    My nails were painted white they changed to brown in less than 24 hours and I was not given a new paint job or my money back.

    I am not surprised to see other negative reviews for Lovely Nails. I tried Lovely Nails for the first time this Friday. I was looking for a place close to work to stop on the way home. I walked in in Friday afternoon and asked for a gel manicure, I was told I would have to wait 10 minutes. It turned out to be more like 20 minutes because on three people were working. That was not a huge deal. The manicure was fine, the manicurist was sweet and worked fast. She mentioned that something was wrong with the polish, that she would have to do three coats for it to not look streaky. No big deal. About 24 hours after my manicure, my nails started to turn a brownish color. The original color was a cream. By Sunday my nails were completely brown. It looked like I has a nail fungus. I was so embarrassed that I has attend a bridal shower and work like that on Sunday and Monday because I had no time to get them fixed. After work I went back to Lovely Nails and explained what had happened. I was told I must have went tanning or dyed my hair myself without wearing gloves. I explained I don't use tanning beds and haven't dyed my hair in at least 5 years. I was told by the manicurist that originally did my nails to pick a different color, preferably something darker. That made total sense to me. Maybe it was something wrong with the color. When I picked a darker color I was told by the manager that it would cost me $10. I asked why and was told if I got the same color that it would be free but if I wanted to change it, I would be charged $10. It was explained that this was their policy around people changing their mind about a color. I explained that I hadn't simply changed my mind that my nails had turned brown. The manager insisted that it was something I had done and not their issue. I was even asked if I had worn black clothing....as if you can't wear black clothing when you have polish on your nails?! In the end I had the polish completely removed. I was told that if I had them re-do the same color and if they turned brown again I could then get another color for free. I explained that I work full time and have children and don't have time to come back three times in one week to get the manicure I already paid for a few days ago. I was not offered a color change or my money back even after I explained that I had to arrange for someone else to pick my daughter up from school so I could be there that day to get it fixed in the first place. I will never go back to Lovely Nails- their customer service is so poor. I was treated like a liar and told repeatedly that I MUST have gone tanning, dyed my hair or wore black (????) and wasn't being truthful. I nearly cried, I was so frustrated.

    I went here before a wedding with my mother and a friend to get manicures and pedicures. All of us had a rough experience with painful procedures. It cost me 65 dollars for a fill and a regular pedicure and after a week my nails look like complete crap. I don't recommend.

    This salon is fantastic. The ladies are incredibly friendly, fun and funny and make every visit…read morequite enjoyable. I absolutely appreciate that you can see different techs without any awkwardness and always still receive the same high-quality results each time--it really speaks to how well the business is run I'd originally discovered the salon by following Judy and saw her there regularly. Then I stopped in on a Sunday (most convenient for me), I saw Linda who is equally as fabulous. Then a day Linda wasn't available, I saw Mirana which who I see most often now since our schedules match-up almost perfectly. I've yet to sit with Kim but know she is just as talented as the other ladies plus her & I have fun talking about clothes I used to do just shellac but am now totally committed to the Builder gel which lasts for me 3-4 weeks. Whereas, the shellac would peel off within days -but that's also because I have weak/thin nails and a picker ‍. Builder gel has been a miracle. SO, when a very picky person recommends a nail salon run, don't walk!

    I've been going to Melrose Nails regularly since I moved to the area about 7 months ago and have…read morehad consistently great experiences. I get builder gel every 3-4 weeks and it lasts really well. My nails always look great and I get lots of compliments on them. I usually see Mirana and she does an excellent job. I've also seen several of the other nail techs and they've all been great. Everyone is friendly and takes their time to make sure the nails look perfect. They offer drinks and snacks, and the vibe is friendly and welcoming. Prices are very reasonable, especially for the Boston area. Definitely recommend!

    I was referred by a friend to go her and see Kim or Khoi, when I booked the two appointments for…read morepedicures Kim was the only one available so I selected her and someone else when me and my father got there. We checked in two women took us over to the pedicure chairs and had started our pedicures and it wasn't Kim again. It was my first time there so I didn't know who she was. The pedicures weren't bad, but we had to keep asking them to either cut my father's nails shorter, which the girl seemed afraid to do and then we both had problems with ingrown luckily Khoi was available to come over and check mine. He was super nice and friendly and welcoming. Again the pedicures were just OK. The technicians really didn't talk much or I think there was just a communication barrier. I do plan on going back only to see Kim or Khoi. I woke up today and I'm not sure what happened to my big toes. I have skin peeling that wasn't there before and my calluses on both of my big toes. Are this funny color extremely red and round this has never happened to me. So that's my only other concern. The atmosphere in the salon is great. It is super clean. Everyone seems to be friendly and the prices are reasonable again. I will be going again and I wish I got the two technicians names we saw because I wouldn't recommend them.

    Came to this place after a month of not doing my nails. Booked an appt the week before and I picked…read morethe earliest appointment there is on a weekday. I got a manicure and pedicure and I pretty much came on time like three minutes before they opened since I didn't know where to go at first and it was my first time coming to this place for a nail appointment. The place is pretty big and spacious and it was pretty quiet probably because it's the weekday too, the person who did my nails was pretty nice and quick and she did what I asked. It was just a simple French nail, but in a different style both service and in about an hour, they have options to pay like Venmo and Apple Pay if you use Venmo, I think you get a 10% off so that was a good plus I didn't know about it at first, but it's a good thing. Might come back next time if I need some nail touch up
