Had an amazing pedicure--only for it to be totally overshadowed by a horrible nail experience right after. The same lady who did my feet started on my nails. All I wanted was a simple gel removal and a French reapplication. Her French tips were crooked, uneven, and already fading--so I politely asked to switch to a solid color instead. Once the new color started drying, it began bubbling up. I asked what was going on, and she tried to blame it on glitter in the polish... but the polish didn't even have glitter--just a slight sparkle. Then a man stepped in to try and fix it, and these photos show what I was left with... after the fix and after washing my hands. No refund, no apology. I don't live in Albuquerque, but 10/10 do not recommend this place. The only good thing I can say is: if you do decide to risk it, TRACY seems like the only one worth seeing. read more

Went in for a mani pedi. I chose this place over my usual because they opened earlier. I was left with an open sore on the side of my foot from the male tech scrubbing my skin instead of my callous. He rushed through my mani because one of his regular clients was waiting. Barely soaked, and no moisturizer or massage period! I do not recommend and will NEVER return. read more

Came in for a basic gel French tip manicure, I needed acrylic on one of my nails as one broke. The service I received was rushed and poorly done. While getting my nails done, one of the workers decided she would paint my little boys nails pink and blue without asking my permission and laughed when I expressed that I was upset that she did it without asking. I had to come back in the following day because one of my nails was already bubbling and lifting, only for the workers to continue laughing that my child got his nails painted without permission. I will never give my money to this unprofessional place ever again. Don't bother wasting your money. read more

Lovely place to get your nails done. The staff is kind and helpful. The owner is very sweet and will do all he can to make sure you receive the best possible service. This is my go to nail spot for manicures and pedicures. It gets busy on the weekends so I suggest you call in advance if you don't want to wait. 10/10 my nails were super damaged from another salon that I went to a while back and the lady at this salon was able to give me a good manicure that will help with my nail recovery!! EXCELLENT!! read more

Luxury Spa Nail - Gold gel nail polish - Nail Salons Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Two different technicians, neither of them could get my nails filed evenly or in the shape I nicely requested several times.

Do NOT recommend this place. We got two pedicures and the two men helping us were very rough and very rude. We got the classic pedicure and didn't even get the services that were listed under the classic pedicure. We were definitely over charged. DO NOT go here if you want even a decent pedicure. read more

They did great with customer service, however my nails did not come out very good they can do something basic but if you ask for glitter ombré this is what I got. read more

I dont know if it was a bad day but the guy tried to file, trim etc just one of my feet before he went to paint my nails. I had to remind him to do the other foot. He did a really poor job on my feet. Not worth the $25. read more

Walked in with no wait! Seemed to be one of the few still open at this time on a Monday. Lots of chairs, relaxing atmosphere, kind staff. I got the deluxe pedicure which felt great and reasonable prices to read more

I came here for a Brazilian wax, after calling ahead a few hours before. I came in at the time I had booked, and was led into a room with two reclined chairs, and the woman started preparing the wax, and asked if I wanted only eyebrows. After clarifying that I was there for a Brazilian, she had me move to a smaller room with only one chair. Not that I'm an old pro when it comes to Brazilians, I usually just get them when I'm feeling like having a me day, but she didn't leave the room when I was undressing, which had never happened to me before. When I was on the table, she asked me if I only wanted "the top" waxed and I said no, all of it. She seemed a little unsure, but started anyways. I have NEVER had a more painful wax, and I like to think I have a pretty solid tolerance for stuff like that. She was apologizing profusely (which I understand she meant in a positive way, but it was NOT comforting) If it was just a painful waxing experience I probably would have blown it off, and not written this review, but that's not what happened. Halfway through, with most of the "top" gone, but a significant and uneven as hell amount still left, she starts shaking her head and talking quietly, and just says "too much" or something to that effect. She holds a mirror up, and she says "it's ok?" It looks like someone took a lawnmower to my business. I am shocked and ask her to take the rest of it off also, and she said something about the wax not working right and she doesn't want to keep hurting me. I'm getting a really weird vibe, but ask her to please finish it, I'm already there and she's started. After another ten minutes of her trying, and showing me the wax strips coming up with sparse amounts of hair, even though there is a significant amount left, she holds up the mirror again, and it looks...the same. I am absolutely done at this point- she's been trying to clean sticky, uncomfortable wax off of my already super sensitive private area, which is not fixing the wax problem or my garbage fire of a Brazilian wax whatsoever. As she's "cleaning" she starts lecturing me about only coming in to get waxed when it's been a week or two after the previous wax. I don't have a crazy amount of hair. I trim my business neatly as hell when I'm not getting my occasional wax, and even if I didn't, any waxed should be able to handle it. I left after being asked to pay full price for this hack job, and immediately made an appointment somewhere else to get myself fixed up. My whole private area is COVERED in sticky wax that doesn't seem to come off with soap, and my upper thighs are sticking to it. Even the "top" part has hairs she didn't remove!!! I can't believe how bad it looks and feels. Seriously, don't get waxed here. read more

Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. I came out of there looking like I bite my fingernails. The young girl clearly did not know what she was doing. She was klutzy and probably blind. I don't know. Never going back even though a friend recommended. read more

I got off work at 5:30pm drove to this place at 6:00pm . The door was locked! This app says it closes at 7:00pm. I'm confused. Why? I was looking forward to getting a pedicure. 1 star because I was made to. read more

I Am Very upset, I went in for a rebase and was charged for a full price set. When I looked at the price the lady said they just changed there prices. This business is way over pricing and not to mention the building is disgusting. My nails look like my 4 year old did them. PLEASE AVOID!! This place should be shut down. read more

Usually they are pretty good , however the last two times I came to get my eyebrows waxed I have waited over 20 minutes and I'm the only one waiting so it's not like it's busy there is also only ONE person getting there toes or nails done so it's not like the entire shop is busy. I like this place but to wait this long I'd rather go somewhere else. read more

I went in yesterday for a regular mani/pedi. The very young girl was obviously not experienced. She cut my fingernails so short, some of them bled! I came home and had to put Liquid Bandage on the tips of all 10 fingers. When I told her that she was cutting them too short, she just looked at me and didn't respond. She cut my big toe nails uneven, and when I asked her to fix it, she ignored me. I do not think she understands or speaks English. I've been here before, and they were decent enough, so I didn't think there would be a problem. I will not go back, and if you come here, do not let the young girl touch you. I am not happy that they are even letting work on customers! Shame on them. read more

I could have, and do paint my own nails better than what I got in here! So disappointed. I will not return to this establishment.

I paid $46 for a bad paint job and left over gel polish on my skin, not to mention that the massage lasted maybe 30 seconds, there were 3 people working and 4 people getting pedicures so it was rushed..... wouldn't recommend this place read more

This place is absolutely gross. Aside from the place looking dirty, the tools don't seem to be sterilized and the hot towels all have stains on them. I had to brace myself throughout a pedicure that was rough and a polish that wasn't even done correctly. They don't have professional technicians doing nails. Word to the wise - DO NOT come here, you'll end up beyond frustrated. read more

I went here a couple of times with okay results. This last time it was horrendous. It was a Sunday and I was the last one seated in a line of eight women getting pedicures. The lady that did my pedicure was not wanting to be there at all. My feet soaked for about four mins before she drained the water, she didn't use cuticle oil and just shoved the cuticle back with the metal tool. The skin wasn't softened at all and it hurt. I noticed the lady next to me and the one beside her also were about two steps behind me in their pedicure treatments. I asked her when she got there and she said she sat down ten minutes before me. She said she knew what I was asking and I should ask to speak to the owner. I was the last one in the pedicure seat and first one out, out of eight women. Not what I paid for! I also noticed that when they pull the tools out of the autoclave they have on display, the packaging isn't new. They reuse the tools and packaging to make it look like you get a fresh pack. You don't. I'm in the medical field, I know what im talking about. If you go here notice they save the packaging when they take the tools out for your pedicure and put them back in the same packaging. They think they are being sneaky, its completely obvious. They need to throw the packaging away! Not save it for the next person. Then comes my gel manicure . . . I asked to have ombre effect. She said she knew how, but from the first stroke I knew it wasn't going to happen. She messed up and said she couldn't do it and everyone else was busy so I would have to have the regular polish and no design. She started way far back on top of the cuticle bed and it was looking super clumpy. I asked her about it and she just tried to file it off. File shellac off of my skin! It wasn't working so she just tried to skip filing the shellac and went straight to the skin itself! !! I told her I wasn't happy about my service and she basically feigned that she didn't know English and what I was saying. Lame. The absolute last chance for this cesspool. read more

I snuck out on a Sunday afternoon and found this place open and pretty empty. The woman in the next chair over gave me the scoop: the owner works for Ethicon (surgical suture company) and knows about sterility. The place was clean and she specifically commented on their use of a sterilizer for their equipment. There were ten massage chairs/basins for pedicures and we were the only two getting pedicures at the time. Several women were getting manicures. There was a steady stream of women coming for waxing but I was too far away to judge results. My pedicure is good - only had time for the basic. But I like the cleanliness and the hours - open on Sunday! I'll try them again before I rush to final judgment but so far, two (toes) thumbs up. read more

Horrible place! Biggest waste of money and time and to top it off she cut me... my nails look awful I'm never going back to this place... I'm sticking to the one across the street read more

So I've been here twice since moving to Albuquerque, first experience was good. The boyfriend accompanied me and had a deluxe pedicure and his first ever manicure and enjoyed them, I had a deluxe pedicure and manicure as well (they removed my gel polish for me and I'm not sure if there was a charge...more on that later). That visit was 93.25 total I can't remember how much of that was tip I gave though. They do charge you extra in tax here, which is something I've not encountered anywhere in Arizona (not sure if its a NM policy). So while a pedicure is $18 there is tax added to that. In terms of cleanliness, tools did seem to have been sterilized, but the tubs themselves-when we were through I watched them simply wipe out the tub with the towels they had used on us and then fill them again for the next person. Second visit was a little more questionable for me. My boyfriend accompanied me again and had the same person so he was fine. I had a different person, and ouch :/ I can't stand when nail techs cut the side of your nail. And the mani/pedi left my nail beds sore. In addition to this, when I got home I had to touch up my own toes because they were painted badly, lots of nail showing on my teeny toe nails. Third visit went fine, I had the same girl as the first time and enjoyed my pedi and gel manicure. So I'm not a nail place cleanliness expert but that might be the main issue, and seems to be hit or miss with the nail techs. read more

Horrible experience ! I don't think I've ever had such a bad experience. Left with my nails looking worse than when I came in.

I have had great experience at this salon. It is the first time I have found a salon that does hombre nails with regular nail polish. Ask for Tina! read more

I was here a few months ago and when the woman was filing/ shaping my nails (they were already pretty short) she cut two of my fingers pretty badly with the file. It was so bad she made me bleed and it was also pretty painful. I mean the young girl who did my pedicure and manicure did a good job, but the woman who filed my nails legitimately cut/hurt me. read more

Just tried it out after experiencing a bad situation elsewhere. Great mani/pedi. Good wax. I will definitely go again.

I was really happy with the service. The salon was clean and the person who did my nails was fast and did a great job!

Clean, well maintained and friendly staff. Prices are great too!

This place is nice I work downtown so this is a nice location for me to go to to get my nails done after work it's not far from the street it's well lit and it has a very comfortable atmosphere. This place does not offer many gel colors for your nails however the staff is very friendly. It's very well decorated and very calming and comfortable after a long days work.The quality of nail that you get is okay but for the same price I would recommend going somewhere else but when you need to get your nails done and you're down town this is the place to go. read more

Staff is so incredibly nice! I got gel nails and was extremely pleased with the result and price. I will definitely be going back and will have to do a pedicure too. read more

I absolutely love this place. Service is great, they do amazing on the mani/pedis. I have never had an issue with them

Pros: Super clean & well ventilated! Nice atmosphere! Very friendly! No wait for walk-in pedicure. Lots of chairs and nail stations. Reasonable prices for nails, waxing, & mani/pedi. Cons: Limited selection of polishes & older polish needs to be rotated I love the location both in terms of running a few errands ... next to gym, decent car wash, dollar store, gas stations ... and it's close to my house :) My deluxe pedicure (extra $) was very relaxing and they spent 15 minutes on the massage, which is usually unheard of at other places. Will definitely go back! read more

These ladies did a great job. They are friendly and fast. They don't drill your nails and really care about hygiene. Their decor is a little acking but the have some great TVs all around the salon. read more

This salon is my new weekly nail spot. After my experience at Lantern I was worried about the cleanliness of nail salons in general. This place restored my faith. I got the best manicure while the animal channel was lulling me to a restful place. Staff is very attentive and thoughtful. I give it 5 stars. read more

I liked that they were very sanitary with their tools and wore gloves. Cleaned them once she was finished. What I didn't like was that she rushed through my pedicure because others were coming in. My nails were cut crooked and painted very quickly that some nail was missed. read more

Came in to get my legs waxed and it wasn't bad getting it done here. The lady was very nice and she didn't miss any hair on my leg. When she was done, I was really impress with how smooth both my legs were. Will be coming back here again! read more

Went here to get a mani & pedi and was very disappointed! I don't know if it was the technician or the quality of the products they use but I left with my feet and hands looking worse than when I walked in. Whatever is in their "lotion" must be cheap because the skin on my hands and feet felt completely dry without any moisture shortly after they finished with my services. The polish used on my manicure left my nails streaky and bubbly after they dried. And on top of that they tried to rush me out by insisting my nails were dry (even though they weren't). Glad I am just visiting from out of town and never have to go back here again. read more
