    This is the thick , uneven , way too short manicure he gave me .

    I visited Utopia Nails for a simple French manicure and left extremely disappointed. I showed the nail tech (VY) a clear reference photo, but my nails turned out nothing like the image I provided. Here are the major issues I encountered: 1. Poor Listening and Execution: Despite pointing out concerns during the process, my corrections were ignored. Each nail came out uneven and crooked, with no resemblance to the photo I provided. 2. Messy Work: Acrylic residue was left all over my fingers, which is highly unprofessional and unsanitary. 3. Lack of Hygiene: The tools and workspace did not appear clean, and the leftover acrylic further emphasized his disregard for cleanliness. 4. Shortened Nails Without Consent: The nail tech made my nails significantly shorter than requested and refused to fix them. 5. Excessively Thick Acrylic: The acrylic application was so thick and uneven that my nails looked bulky and unnatural. 6. Time Inefficiency: This "simple" French manicure took an outrageous 4.5 hours to complete, which is unacceptable for such a basic design. I've attached photos for reference--the first shows what I requested, and the others show the actual results. I won't be returning to Utopia Nails. I hope this review helps others avoid the same experience!!! Wish I could give this experience 0 stars!

    What I asked for.

    TLDR: Terrible service. Argumentative staff that do take customers wants/needs into consideration. Visited my family in Boca Raton and my mother and I decided to get a mani/pedi. My nail tech was Jonathan and I wanted an acrylic full set with gel polish. I showed a picture of exactly how I wanted my nails shaped - ballerina. He did the complete opposite! When I voiced my concerns, he didn't want to reshape them and said they look like the picture. Any blind person can see there is a huge DIFFERENCE between the picture and my nails. Moreover, I asked for a specific color (gave the # of the polish). I noticed the color was lighter than the nail sample. I asked him if it was the correct color and he said yes, it's just gel is lighter. When he was done painting my nails, I checked the color # and it was INCORRECT. Every time I voiced a complaint or concern about my nails, I was met with aggressiveness and rudeness. I have never experienced EVER. I was so disappointed and angry, I didn't bother with a pedicure. Worst service. Worst nail tech. Please do not come here and spend your money.

    I've been going to Utopia for almost 2 years, and I can't believe I haven't written a review yet! Sophia is amazing, she does the most amazing designs on my nails, and my pedicures are perfection. I've also had my nails done by Trish, who is also wonderful, as well as Dan! Basically every person who has done my nails, I've loved Jordana is super friendly and helpful, she always makes sure I have my appointments squared away, and I absolutely love coming here. 10/10 would recommend to anyone.

    Update update. I'm only giving it three stars because my nails came out much better than the last time and I'm also have a low star rating because I went to go and get my nails redone because it was messed up from the first nail tech and they still charged me $20 for somebody mess up not to mention I also had an original nail look, and the first tech could not do it so I told her to do plain white nails and she even messed that up and she had a very nonchalant attitude so the vibe wasn't good. She filed my nails down so bad to my skin started bleeding and even with the nail techs she to be easy on my pinkies I paid money for this. I will never come back here mind you I paid and I tipped . Third fourth times the charm, please look at both pictures and see the mess up from the nail tech and the other picture which shows they can do a really good job. I do not recommend this place. The nail tech tried to upsell and do other things and not listen to the customer.

    I moved down to Florida about five years ago and was looking for a nail salon. I came across Dan on Instagram and said to myself "wow I need To try this guy out" . I was able to get an appointment with him and he gave me something better than what I showed him. I have been going to Dan now for about 4 years now and I swear by utopia. My girl Vicky is amazing with the way she does brows and lashes and making you feel sexy! Alex is O M G Excellent in heaven amazing massages during pedicures as well as a beautiful paint job! Vicky and Sophia are awesome at doing your brows! Jordana at the front desk is beyond amazing. She's so personable and easy to deal with! Utopia is my home away from home! Highly recommended!!

    Was extremely impressed on the day of my appointment...however I have lost all of my initial amazement at how good the salon was. I got a full acrylic set with gel polish and three nails broke within the first week of being on. My friend also got a set and her nails broke too. She went in to get them fixed and they broke YET AGAIN. We reached out to the salon via Instagram dm, and we were left on "seen". Two more messages have been sent requesting to cancel future appointments...very disappointed. Thought I found my new go-to salon in Boca, but I am still on the hunt.

    First brought my mom here for her birthday and have been coming back every couple weeks to get our nails done for over a year. Always a fun time when we come and the nails are always beautiful. Amazingly talented nail artists and very clean salon.

    Alex @ Utopia is superb! Highly recommend services here. Clean, attentive and detailed work.

    **VERY COVID19 CLEAN** masks, gloves, spacing, temp checks, waiver, client areas cleaned and spaced well. Service is always superb. Felt comfortable and appreciated all the extra clean measures. Alex & Family @ Utopia Nails of Boca are OUTSTANDING! Recommended by a friend who's been doing her nails with Alex for years, happy to enjoy my mani-pedi today with such excellent, caring, detailed service. Just wonderful. Will be back for sure!

    I was really looking forward to this salon since I have been struggling to find a GOOD place since moving to south Florida. I thought I found the place, friendly staff and clean place. Only for my gel manicure to chip in two fingers within 7 days. I have been getting gel manis for a long time and never have I chipped my nails so quickly. Really upsetting!!

    First time going there and was very pleased. Lucy did a great job with my nails. Salon is clean and the gentleman at the front desk is friendly and professional. Will be going again.

    If I could give this place 0 stars I would. I went in to try this place out because they were in a nice location and conveniently open on a Sunday. I went in for nexgen with tips. I got French and the work was atrocious!! I paid and tipped the nail tech Lucy well because I felt bad. I couldn't even loook at my nails. I called the next day and the girl who answered told me to come in for a polish change no charge. I come in and the manager puts me BACK with Lucy and tells me if I don't get a French he's charging me. Wait.. so you are gonna have the same shitty nail tech do the same shit work and expect the client to be happy? I'm confused. I said it's fine just drill off the top coat of the nexgen and throw a gel color over and call it a day. The manager had the nerve to charge me $20 to put gel over the shit work. Never in my life would I ever ever go back here!! He said if you don't do French like you paid for I have to charge you sorry! Here is the picture of the second time around lol my thing nail is already half chipped ‍

    I have been going g to Utopia since the first day they opened. I just got my nails done today! Every three weeks. It is the most relaxing, enjoyable part of my week. The new full body massage chairs almost put me to sleep. The family type atmosphere and people working there are always nice and friendly. I love love Utopia! Please go and enjoy the pamper

    Simply the best! True artists who care about their customers and their craft. I've been a loyal customer for over a year and won't go anywhere else. The entire shop does a great job and many of the technicians do fabulous nail art- you won't be disappointed!

    I was a regular when they 1st opened up. I was so excited for a salon that I can walk to during…read morelunch or after work to get a mani/pedi. Julie left a terrible taste and I havent revisited since. I showed her a few inspo pics, instead of saying she couldn't replicate it- she did a horrible job. I told her I didnt like it. All she said was, "Im sorry you don't like them Michelle." It was a sloppy job. I was her last client for the day, I guess she really wanted to go home... the least she could've said was to fix it up the next visit. I was excited for the nails since I was flying to Vegas. The nail polish was very thick, uneven- bumps you can see from streaky polish, you can see the polish on my skin. I was very embarrassed and insecure so I had to get them redone once I landed. Really disappointed with my last and final visit. I liked my nails done by a different tech, the picture with the burgundy and gold nails prior but with my last appt with Julie, the owner - it's a no go for me. You can get better quality nail service elsewhere. The salon itself was clean and has a modern vibe. Saw the owners respond- I was a client in 2021

    Hi there! I am…read moresending an updated review, it has been almost 20 days since my last review regarding my Nail Fungus. I had received gel X and supposedly I didn't realize that there were gaps in between my nail and the false nail. The day after I sent in the last review, the manager reached out to me with a full refund. As my nurse told me, "it is safe to say, always make sure your false nails are COMPLETELY sealed since that was the reason for the fungus growing underneath my nail." Unfortunately, I can not receive new nails for sometime. I truly hope this will not happen to anyone else, Instyle Nail Spa, "please take this into consideration." Although, my nail is still healing and being treated the manager of InStyle was eager to make it right with a full refund. Thanks, Kyra
