If I could give 0 I would. I have been getting my nails done for years, and unfortunately this was hands down the worst nail salon experience I have ever had. My nails came out extremely crooked--several of them are literally pointing/facing to the left instead of straight. But honestly, the most frustrating part was the experience trying to choose my color. I picked the color I wanted, and the nail tech switched it on me. When I told her that it was not the color I chose, instead of listening to me or correcting it, she argued with me. She first tried to tell me a glitter was the same color when it clearly was not. When I said I didn't want that, she then tried chrome and again insisted it was the same. I repeatedly explained that it was not what I wanted, and I felt completely ignored. At the end of the day, I am the customer paying for the service--I should be able to choose the color I want on my own nails. Between the crooked nails, not receiving the color I asked for, and being argued with instead of listened to, I left extremely disappointed. There are far too many great nail salons in Tallahassee to spend your money somewhere that leaves you feeling unheard and unhappy with the finished result. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this salon and will not be returning. Below was my inspo pic and the right are my nails I ended up leaving with. read more

I am in town visiting and stopped in at my favorite nail place for a pedicure. I forgot how much I love this place!!! I walked in, asked for pedicure and they immediately took me to a chair. I saw 10 employees working! The food channel was playing on the tv and quiet music was playing. The classic pedicure is the most basic but it's amazing!! The massage and hot towel is heaven! So happy this place is still going strong here in Tallahassee!! read more

Nice staff, great quality, they take appointments and stay on time. Clean, beautiful scenes on their TV sets. Very good nail salon!

I got a gel manicure here once and really liked the vibe of the salon. They used new tools, had a large selection of colors, and got me in quickly. The guy who did my nails was really good. The place felt very clean and it was only $35, which I felt was cheaper than most places in town. Nail Nook isn't on my side of town so I haven't been back, but I definitely would if I'm over there or close by! read more

I had a gel manicure here and really enjoyed the experience. The salon was clean, welcoming, and had a wide range of colors. My nails were done beautifully, and I'd definitely come back whenever I'm in the area. read more

Oof. I liked this place because it's right down the street from my house and it used to be my main go-to. But the last few times I went in I felt very uncomfortable. Like many reviews are saying, it's hard to get them to pay attention to what you're saying/what you want. Last time I went in, my requests were ignored, and soon they were trying to put acrylics on me? I said "no, I actually just wanted a gel manicure :)" and my tech called over the front desk woman and together they talked to me like I was stupid "This is GEEEELLLL. These are ACRYLICS." Like I had requested acrylics and had just changed my mind. Then they continued to talk about me in a different language off an on, which is truly where I draw the line. I almost got up and left before being worked on because my anxiety was through the roof. Unfortunately this place isn't what it used to be. Stop making your clients feel uncomfortable. read more

Though the outside doesn't look like much, (It's in the Hobby Lobby Plaza) the inside is very classy + clean. They did a great job on my gel manicure and the prices were reasonable. I will be back! read more

Nail Nook - Entrance / Vibe - Nail Salons Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

Had a pleasant first visit here based on the recommendation of my hairdresser. Visited on a Thursday afternoon and was able to be serviced right away. I had a decent gel pedicure from Tom. I'm happy with my toes, but the massage was a little rough. I enjoyed my gel manicure as well. I also had a lip and chin wax. I was pleased with the total price, seemed more reasonable than perhaps some other places in town. It would be nice if they offered a beverage, soft drink or wine of some sort. All in all, I would visit again. read more

Very professional & courteous staff. They took their time and our pedicures were incredibly enjoyable because of it! The place is very clean. read more

The establishment is very clean, and I observed all of the workers sanitary practices. They all use brand new packages of pedicure tools for each client (the way it's supposed to be). I got their basic pedicure which was $30. The lady that did mine took her time and massaged my feet for about 35 minutes! It was lovely. She painted my nails very nicely as well. However. When it came to her doing my hands- she had to remove my gel polish. She did it manually- and instead of using a machine, she used a regular nail file to remove the gel and it took FOREVER!!! Other than the whole process taking a while, (2 hours for basic pedicure and gel hands) I was pleased with the results and I may be back again. read more

They take their time here and that's what I like. Techs give good service and make sure your happy with your service. Beautiful pleasant environment. A little pricey but it's worth it for the good service. read more

I love this place! Always very clean and staff is super friendly. I am always a walk in and unless I come at peak weekend times, I never have to wait long. I have natural nails and they always look beautiful when I leave. read more

I had a terrible experience there today. First I requested Tim, the front desk girl ignored me. Then she made the water for my pedicure scalding hot- never even checked it. Then I asked my nail tech if they could soak off my nails while I got my pedicure so I didn't have to waste another 1/2 hr. He ignored me so I asked if he was going to do my dip- he said he didn't know so I asked Tim if he could do it. He said sure. Then my tech through a bitch fit & the manager said "Tim has another appointment he can't do your nails". An obvious lie as I watched Tim sitting doing nothing. Insulting being lied to. Then the tech started filing the dip off my nails bc he didn't want to wait for the soak. He started filing my nails too thin & they started to burn. I then asked him to stop filing & just soak them. He through another fit got up & walked away. So he ignores me doesn't soak my nails, burns my nails & then has an attitude with me! Although Tim is Amazing & did an awesome job after the little fit thrower got up and left I will never go back. Super unprofessional and dishonest. There's plenty of other places to go. Ps the first guy filed my pinky toe into a triangle shape! read more

I moved to Tally a few months ago and I've been searching for a new nail place. This place makes me want to drive 2 hours outside Tally to go get my nails fixed. the lady trimmed my nails so short I'm in pain. The shapes are not the same. It was the biggest waste of money and it took forever. On top of that, I saw a Lot of disrespect towards people of color and to Those whose English is not their native language. They took care of people who showed up after me and NO they didn't have an appointment (I asked). Worse experience ever. my pedicure was good though. read more

Super busy and only had to wait 15 mins and they helped me out very quickly and left with my nails looking great!

The Nail Nook is small and personalized. They are always very welcoming and friendly. I've had both acrylics and pedicures here, both I've been extremely happy with. I've both walked in and have made appointments, both of which were with great ease and no wait. If they are busy and you walk in they will let you know so as not to keeps you waiting too long thus giving you the option to come back. Very satisfied. read more

Nail Nook is the best! I took my 4-year-old daughter here for a special "Mommy date" and they did not disappoint! They're a bit more high end than normal nail salons (seriously, the inside is gorgeous) so they didn't have a child's chair. No problem! They were so accommodating, they brought her a little pillow and made all sorts of little adjustments to make her comfortable and happy. They are the sweetest, and they did a great job on the mani/pedi, even with her weird request of "pink polish with silver sparkles." They brought her a bottle of water and treated her like a customer who mattered. I highly recommend! read more

This is my new favorite salon! Incredibly attentive and tidy, they're constantly keeping the salon in tip-top shape! Their polish selection was great, and they keep their lotion in the heater with the towels which is REVOLUTIONARY! My deluxe pedicure looks fantastic, and my nail tech (who's name I believe was Niki) was especially great at avoiding some scrapes that I had on my foot and leg from where I tripped and fell the other day. The color was well applied with care and precision. Overall, 10/10 and highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a new favorite Tallahassee salon! read more

This is the cutest little salon, tucked away in plain sight. Amazing choice in gel polish. Highly hygienic. Lovely atmosphere. In and out in under 45, for gel. I can't praise it enough. read more

Nail Nook - Tahitian Summer gel polish on my natural nail, $35. - Nail Salons Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

So when I get in there I asked for "snow flake white" gel polish, and she started with regular polish. I caught her right before and corrected her and then she did a French tip, I did not ask for that. In the middle of my pedicure they switched to another girl. I'm assuming inexperienced because the previous one was watching over her. Once she did my last coat I asked for another layer because they were not even and I could see through my nails. She proceeded by putting oil on my feet to "fix" the dry problem and then took me over to the manicure station. I had to explain to my friend and her again that I am not satisfied with my pedicure polish. Once I finished my manicure a guy took me over to correct my toes, my manicurist told him just to do one or two and when he asked me how many I had to explain to him that I asked for an additional later on each toe. So he began drilling my polish off. Another lady, I'm assuming the owner, came to complete the job. She did great. But when it was time to checkout I became even more aggregated on top of what I already was. When I called and asked how much a mani pedi and gel polish is they told me $61, but when I checked out they told me $81 and she charged my card in the process of me trying to find that extra charge on their menu. They do good work once they finally listen to what you want but the fact that I was told one charge and charged another is completely ridiculous. Never going back. read more

I love this nail salon! They do great work and its beautiful. Amy and Michael make you feel special at each appointment. Love them. read more

Loved this place. They were efficient and friendly. I had a pedicure and nails dipped and they did a beautiful job!

Always have a great experience whenever I come here! Even for a classic pedicure they take their time and you really get your moneys worth.

I went there on Tuesday, 5/25/21 to have an eyebrow wax and a pedicure. My nail technician Amy gave me an amazing pedicure and did a great job on my eyebrows which I am extremely picky about but she did them just the way I asked her to. Their prices are very reasonable and I left there very happy. I will be going back there for sure and encourage others to give them a try. You will not be disappointed! This same review inadvertently was posted on the Millennium Midtown review website. It was always meant for the Nail Nook and I don't know how it wound up there. read more

Came here with my friend (the bride), her mom, my mom, and myself to prep for her wedding. The place is bright, clean, and large. It has a modern feel and updated chairs and foot baths. I called ahead to make an appointment, but the seemed to be able to see most walk ins in 5 mins. All of their tools are in sanitized pouches and they cleaned everything after each person. The staff was very friendly and professional. The guy that did my pedicure was very strong and really worked on the knots in my feet. Everyone was very happy with the quality of their nails. The bride also got some waxing and she said it was a great experience. read more

After sitting and waiting for over 45 minutes I just left. Other clients arriving after me (with no appointment) are being waited on and no one has the courtesy to update me on the timeline. I just returned from a very tiring 2 week oversees trip and was so looking forward to treating myself to a pedicure and set of nails. Very disappointed. read more

My nail tech started freakin out when I asked for coffin shaped nails and they charged me an crazy amount extra to get it done and acrylics usually cost around 25 dollars and I had to pay 50 I would 10/10 not recommend going to nail nook read more

Walk in from out of town. Staff was very friendly and the massage during my pedicure was awesome!

This salon is fantastic. The layout is more spacious than others nearby, and the staff is honest with you about wait times. I've had a gel manicure, pedicure, and acrylics done here. I was satisfied with all three services. Once I even came in after being unsatisfied with my acrylics from another salon, and they soaked them off and started from scratch to make sure they were done correctly. They pay attention to detail and are always very welcoming. I highly recommend coming here! read more

Popped in here for the first time today and was very impressed! They are so nice and did a great job. The salon itself is beautiful and they are very reasonably priced. I got a deluxe pedicure for $36. I will definitely be back! read more

Hands down the best manicure and pedicure I have ever experienced. I had terrific service with the pedicure by Vicki, and had the best full set done by the manager. It's so clean and relaxing there. I am so glad I found my favorite nail place. $45 is steep for a full set gel, but it'll be the best full set ever. The place was cute, calming and VERY professional!!! read more

I work with the Florida Board of Cosmetology, so I am aware of safety and health issues for Nail salons. I have tried several Tallahassee nail salons, and I will return to Nail Nook. I visited for the first time recently as a walk-in. I was pleasantly greeted with a smile and a welcome by one of the technicians, and attended to quickly. They were moderately busy, but had 8 technicians at work. I opted for their top of the line pedicure. It was a lengthy pedicure with scrub, mask, moisturizers, hot stone massage, paraffin (ahh), and more. The pedicure tools were sterilized and sealed before use (thank you). My regular (and basic) OPI polish for some reason did not dry as expected, but this was quickly remedied before I left. All nail surfaces were artfully covered, with no missing edges and no messy polish on my toes. Clean and crisp. My mani request was simple, just a trim, mani, and burnish. The nails could have been burnished a little more, but they were even and smooth. An accidental painful nip at the cuticle received sincere regrets and abundant apologies. I had a nice soak, but next time will also ask for a cuticle softener. The salon is new, spacious, and clean, with calming, sometimes classical, music. I received a warm thanks and a friendly hug upon departure. As I watched the technicians, I did not see anyone who did not appear to be friendly and competent. I recommend. I hope your experience is as good as mine was. read more
