    One word...AMAZING! I've been searching Jacksonville for months for a place that can do nail art. I'm not talking basic flowers, I'm talking striping, 3D art, ombré nails, etc. Many places said they could do that type of nail art but didn't have the tools or skill to do anything out of the ordinary. I went Wendys for a correction to four of my nails from an attempt by another salon to do nail art. What I got was less than satisfactory. So, I went in specifically to see Jason who had posted many of the photos on Yelp. He was booked solid but he showed his colleague Amber and she took me right away. She soaked off my nails, repolished them and careful created the nail art. I am thrilled with the outcome! The salon is an intimate place and it felt like the clients know all the techs and vise versa. I like how it had that real beauty shop vibe. Keep up the amazing work and great customer service.

    Jason knocks it out of the park every single time he does my nails. Reasonable prices, great location, can book online. They will accept card but prefer cash

    Love this place!! Don't really care for the guy who does nails but Kylie is amazing!! She's so kind, patient, and all you have to do is show her a picture of what you want and she will work with you and they come out amazing every time!! Will definitely go back!

    Love this place really nice ppl great atmosphere . I don't have much more to say my review was to short so I'm just typing stuff

    WARNING: this salon gave me nail fungus! my poor acrylic nails came off after 1 week (normally they can last me up to 2 months) and due to unsanitary environment i now have a nail fungus. I'm more than disappointed and wish i saved my money and time.

    So I am overly obsessed with nails and perfection. I've lived in St.Aug for 2 years, tried over 7 salons and never left happy. Today that changed. I called, they fit me in which was amazing because this place is super busy! I got marble nails for the first time ever and they are PERFECT I'd give 100 if I could. I am truly blessed I found this place online today! I will now be a loyal customer! All staff was nice professional and friendly!

    My appointment was at 9am and I was in the chair at 9am. I showed Jason a picture from Pinterest and he explained how he could do the design. My nails look AMAZING! Everyone is very nice and the atmosphere is pleasant. They even played gospel music!

    Pinky nail came off before one week mark.

    So I was REALLY excited to try out this salon. Their portfolios are amazing and it seems like they genuinely love what they do and they take pride in their work (so hard to find that in a nail tech). I felt everyone there had great attitudes. After my appointment, my nail shape was good (not great), the free-hand design was seemingly half-a*sed (little upset over that) but overall the nails looked good and I was happy. The salon could also be a little cleaner, too, but they are in transition of expanding which is stressful in itself. Anywhoo, my nail tech had asked me if I was involved in labor-intensive work or if I used my hands a lot so the tech could adjust how my nails would handle "everyday life." I told my nail tech that I do light work, but the nail tech gave me medium strength to be on the precautionary side ..... I don't know if I came in on a bad day or if my nail tech was over doing nails by the time my appointment came about, but the quality is so disappointing. A lot of my nails are lifting, some are dented, I've had two fall off now before the one week mark. I understand these things happen and maybe the product that was used just doesn't do well with my nails? The tech told me they have a two week policy where if am issues occur you can come back free of charge and get your nails fixed. The only problem is I live an hour away and don't have time to just come in for a quick fix. I honestly am unsure if I will be back, but if you go and get your nails done here be sure of what you want and double check all of your nails before you leave - in good lighting too.

    can't say enough good things about XO Nails. it's easily the best nail salon in Jacksonville! I've…read morebeen here around five times, and every single visit has been a fantastic experience from start to finish. The team here is so welcoming and friendly, which makes me feel right at home each time. Plus, they're incredibly organized, so I've never had to wait, even when I've come during busier times. What really sets XO Nails apart is their efficiency without sacrificing quality. I typically get a French tip acrylic set and an acrylic pedicure, and I'm always amazed at how smoothly the appointment goes. They complete both services within 1.5 hours, which is perfect for me because I'm not a fan of sitting in a salon chair for too long. Despite the quick pace, the results are flawless every single time, beautiful, clean, and exactly how I like them. It's refreshing to find a nail salon that respects my time and consistently delivers high-quality work. If you're in Jacksonville and looking for a reliable, efficient, and friendly nail salon, I highly recommend giving XO Nails a try. You won't be disappointed!

Throughout my time here I have ALWAYS had the most phenomenal service possible. I have gotten sooo many nail sets, I have lost track. There have also been lots of pedicures and eyebrow waxes. No matter what, they have always gone beyond the bar. The business is family owned and ran, which I absolutely love. Almost everyone on their staff has given me a service of some sort. 10/10 recommend I'll drop a few pics below. The color pink and I are in love. They have been doing my nails pink for YEARS now.

    I posted this review on Google but I just wanted to make sure I gave this place a shout out on…read moreYelp. This place is very underrated. I am very picky when it comes to my nails. I usually get an acrylic overlay with gel polish. I like very natural looking nails with a thin overlay mainly because I am active duty and have a standard I need to follow when it comes to things like nails. I went to four salons before Rose Vy Nails and each time the final result was a very thick overlay of acrylic that made my nails look very unnatural. I even tried to be very specific about the thickness of the nails or show pictures of what I wanted. Heck one place even told me I had "chubby nail beds" and that was the reason as to why I couldn't get the thin finish I wanted! That's wild. I never heard that before in my 34 years on this earth lmfao. Anywho, I finally ended up at Rose Vy Nails and was so fortunate to get Kevin to work on my nails. I told him exactly what I wanted and he delivered. He even cleaned up my cuticles, which if you have done acrylic nails for a while you know most technicians won't really clean up your cuticles. He was very meticulous and at the end he said "looks much better." Haha. And he was right, looked way better than any other place I've been to in the area. I waited to go a few times before I gave my review because I wanted to make sure he was consistent and he is. I will always go to Kevin now that I've found him haha. I also got a really good pedicure done by another technician. Unfortunately I didn't ask her name but she was wonderful. Everyone there has been very friendly. Definitely a no fuss type of place or super fancy but it's a place where you know you will get good service.

    This place is located near a restaurant that I dine at(Noodles & Rice). I ordered my food and told…read morethem I would be right back to dine in. They cook fresh to order. So, I was greeted with a very warm welcome from two beautiful Asian ladies. I inquired about their hours and prices and told them I would come back. I was pinched for time and the place I usually go is very busy and with only two employees-you might have a long wait. I came back here on Saturday to get a pedicure and a manicure. A nice man did my pedicure and he gave me the royal treatment($38.00). He made me feel like I was in Heaven. My toes still look great a few weeks later. Now, the strange part-the young lady did my manicure on the side while I was getting my pedicure. I found that very odd and did not really like that too much. It did expedite things, so I did not complain. I was in a hurry to get to the beach for my Memorial Day weekend stay at One Ocean. The nail polish on my fingernails never last. They recommended for me to get gel Nails, which I think is great, but my nails don't handle gel nails at all. No go. I told them about that and they responded well. Overall, it was a wonderful experience. Pros:plenty of employees to handle the crowds, everyone was so friendly, clean place, prices were very fair, they offered me a cold diet drink while I was there. Great perk. Cons:side manicure was odd. Will I return? YES!
