they are incredible! clean, friendly, they are flexible with scheduling and and beautiful nails always!

Chipped and peeling gel
Audrey M.

I'm really disappointed in my experience at this salon. I literally got my nails done 3 hours ago and the gel is already peeling off. I called in advance and they said I could come in 15 minutes which was great. I got there and the entire process felt rushed. I showed a picture of what I wanted (almond) and I got round. She barely spent any time shaping my nails and when putting my hand in the gel lamp she would get angry at me if I didn't pull them out when she told me to even though it hadn't been the full time. She was so rough with me and even pulled my arms across the table a few times. I tried to make conversation and she brushed off whatever I said. The only time she was pleasant was after I tipped.

Lots of pink options just in time for valentines day!

Again, had another great experience here. The gel polish is around 37 dollars and they do a great job. They get all the way down to the bottom of the nail bed so you can get the longest last out of your manicure. The technicians take their time and are very kind. Super engaging staff and all seem happy to be there. Will continue to come back.

Grown out gouges in my mail.

This was possibly the worst experience I have ever had at a nail salon. I went in to have gel removed and a traditional polish applied. The man who I started with was extremely rude and halfway through he just walked away and started helping someone else. Then eventually a woman had me move to a different station, she was only slightly less rude but at least she finished the job. They used a very coarse grit nail file and they used it very aggressively leaving deep gouges in my actual nail. As it has grown out I've had to trim my nails back, with 4 being trimmed to the quick because they are so frail after this handling by Nailtique. I highly recommend you find somewhere else to get your nails done.

Called to make an appointment and they are very good about giving you an estimate time to come in so that you can avoid waiting. Went to get my nail done for engagement photos. At first the guy working on my nails made the white tips too thick but when I asked if he could thin them out, he wasn't annoyed and happily redid the shape. I was really appreciative that he was willing to fix it without any hassle. The details are what makes this place stand out: to avoid a parking meter ticket they'll help you put coins in during your mani/pedi. Theyll help you grab your credit card or hand you your keys so that picking them up doesn't scratch the nails. Too awesome. Manicure was $17 and french tips were an extra $5. Place is clean, the tools they use are sterilized and packaged sealed (only opened in front of customer before use) Totally worth it!

What I got.

I hated every bit of it, both nail techs that handled me were very aggressive. The woman that did my nails was terrible and wouldn't listen to me on what I wanted, she did what she wanted to do with my nails but only after making me wait 30 minute for the disgust on my toes and nails. This is by far the worst rated nail salon i've come across. I did not get what I paid for and even got cut 6 times with the drill she was using. When filing long nails she did not care that I was in pain nor did she care about constant going over the bleeding spots she had already cut. I 100% want a refund and I'll never blink my way at this salon again.

Thanks to Yelp, I found this last minute gem! I called at 4:30 to check on prices ($17 mani, $34 shellac, $34 full set) and made an appointment for 7 that night. I don't go to Mt. Lookout often, mostly because I either forget or I don't care for the traffic. The area was very busy, Thursday evening around 7. I would recommend allowing yourself 5-10mins to find parking and deal with traffic if you make an appointment. However, when I finally found parking and made it inside, I was a happy customer. I usually go with a full set but this time I changed it up. The lady at the counter talked me into the shellac manicure rather than a regular mani, I'm glad I went with it. There's a nice selection of polishes and gels. I picked a cute light pink/silver combo. The tech was very nice and did a great job with my nails. They ended up even and very pretty. It's been a full day (with a toddler) and no chips or breaks. The shellac is supposed to last two weeks, I hope it does! It is very fresh and clean inside, the smell of coffee from Lookout Joe next door is quite nice! I will be back!

I love Nailtique! I am a perfectionist and very picky about my nails, but they did not disappoint. Service was pleasant, thorough, and reasonably priced. Will definitely be coming back!

Polish in skin (had two colors done)

I could not be more upset with my experience. I brought my daughter with me for a girls day, which seemed to be an annoyance to them. They had me sit in a low pedicure stool while they painted my daughters nails, then tried to sit her near the door while painting my nails. I voiced I wasn't comfortable with this and was told she'd be fine, and they were combative about my wanting my child near me. They could not let her have a fan for her nails while not sitting apart from me and could not wait to paint my nails for hers to dry, so her normal polish nails were a total waste of money upon exit. My nails are filled with bubbles, they left gel polish on my skin, and there are fuzzes in the nails. What was supposed to be a relaxing girls day ended up being really an unpleasant experience all around.

awful experience.... I was met with attitude from the second I walked in. After selecting my polish, my tech began asking me to buy gel instead and got increasingly agitated that I didn't want to spend the extra money on it. By the time I sat down and told her I wanted long acrylics with a green french tip she was visibly annoyed with me. After putting on my tips and starting the acrylic, she stopped doing my nails and attended to another customers feet then neglecting to wash her hands before finishing my set. She threw my hands when she was done with one and wanted the other, she charged me $20 extra for the length, and complained (in english) that I didn't want gel. Throughout the process I kept stopping her to show her/ explain how I wanted my nails to look, including showing her a picture. When asked she said "that's all i can do for you"after barley filing them. Long story short, the set turned out atrocious. Poorly done, rushed, crooked, and just ugly.... I attached photos of what I asked for and what I got. I'm not usually one to complain about services but I just feel like people should know about this nail salons hate crime committed against my nails. did I mention these nails are for my birthday

Fun spring colors mani & pedi at Nailtique!

I love Nailtique! I got a gel manicure and regular pedicure. They have a good selection of colors, and I love their massage chairs! The pedicure was great, they have upgrade options for their pedis, which are good. I upgraded to a sugar scrub, which felt nice. Good for walk-ins and book ahead appointments! They do not have anyone sitting at the front counter so walk ins can be kind of awkward, but definitely worth it. I will absolutely go back!! Great experience.

Love this local little place - everyone is so nice and it's easy to get an appointment last minute. Love my Valentines Day nails

If I could give zero stars I would. Hands down worst manicure I've ever gotten. The staff is rude, unprofessional and unskilled.

Awful service. My mani/pedi was pretty much done with one hand as the nail technician was on her iPhone the entire time.

I visited here to get blonde highlights to help grow out my darker roots in a less harsh manner. I…read moream newer to the Cincinnati area and I didn't have any personal recommendations to go off of, but this salon was nearby my house. I love the result of my hair! The hair stylists were all extremely friendly and engaged with me in conversation as I waited for my highlights to process. Sometimes when I get highlights I feel like it takes forever without any overly impressive results. Here, my stylist worked efficiently so I wasn't sitting in the chair for four hours, and it turned out great! I'm looking forward to see how my hair will look in a couple weeks after a bit of grow out. In terms of the atmosphere, it was very bright, earthy and peaceful. It was like Whole Foods and Anthropologie had a child. Plus, they have mimosas! What else could you want?

I've been coming here for a long long time and still love it - but recently I've found the end…read moreresult is hit or miss on the stylist. My normal person (Diana) was out first having her baby recently and I love her - but I ended with a newly graduated stylist who took 1 hr and 45 min for a basic hair cut (on my bday) and also did all the things I said I didn't like and cut it too short. Never asked for a refund before but still waiting to hear back from my multiple emails. I'll be back when Diana returns but don't know that I would switch stylists again.
