Every time I come in to Paint it's a great experience! I came in on a Saturday for my appointment and was immediately greeted and offered a beverage. My nail tech, Aliyah, was on time and we got started right away. I got a sculpted fill with the bioseaweed gel over my natural nails and nail art. They look beautiful and I love how the design turned out! The gel looks natural but is super strong and has helped my natural nails grow long without breaking read more

Great! Jazz was so sweet and patient with me. I don't get my nails done often and my experience a year ago was horrific, so she took the time to make them just as i wanted. I appreciate it so much especially since they are my birthday nails read more

The environment, the energy is so clean and adding Christina is the cherry on time. She brings light to the salon that I love so much! Super consistent and does the best job on my nails! Will be her client for forever as long as she has me! read more

Great spot! Great vibe and exceptional service. Always get regular pedicure and gel manicure. Haven't had one bad experience!

Paint always does a fantastic job on my nails! The manager, Kris, is absolutely fantastic at figuring out exactly what I want polished and what is the healthiest option for my nails! The salon itself is very clean, with a laidback atmosphere. Everyone is very kind and accommodating. Plus they have free juice & champagne! I used to go to other traditional salons and felt like my natural nails were so weak that I had to keep going back to make sure my nails didn't break. At Paint, they use brands like Madam Glam, Emma, Gel-X, and Bioseaweed Gel as natural polishes. They also never use electric files or excessively file the natural nail. So now my nails are thick and healthy on their own so I don't have to keep polish on them to prevent breaking. But I've been coming to Paint for over 4 years now by choice because of how amazing their salon is! Parking is limited on Central Avenue, plus they ticket regularly if you don't pay at a meter or on the app. I'd recommend parking in the First Central Tower Garage off 1st South. It's only $5 on the weekends! read more

So glad I found this amazing downtown location. Street parking is metered. I biked there, plenty of bike rack availability in front. If you are getting a basic manicure, I recommend the dazzle dry brand. It dries in 5 minutes. It's great because they don't use chemicals like dip powered and acrylic. You don't have to breathe that in. They have gel or basic options. If you are pressed for time get the lickedysplit manicure. An express manicure done in about 35 min. If you Add $10 paraffin wax it takes another 5-10 min. Worth it! My nail tech was Summer. She was great, very detailed and made sure the color and style was done to my preference. Make sure to check in on yelp for an extra free treat. read more

Very underwhelming experience for a downtown nail salon. Aesthetic is nice but nail techs aren't very skillful. Went with my mom this afternoon and the tech I had was pleasant, however the tech my mom had was very rude. Wouldn't go back. I've had better pedicures at malls & airports. read more

Ladies were entertaining and very nice. Pedicure was very relaxing. Thought I would miss the massage chairs. I did not! Can't wait to go back. And mimosa's are served! read more

Journee did an amazing job on my pedicure, giving me the most perfect French tip. Finished under 1hr which was great for a busy person like me. Comfy and cute place, easy to sit back and relax. I definitely recommend. read more

I had a fantastic uptown girl pedicure by Kimberly! I love that they offer refreshments (I skipped the mimosa but the flavored sparkling water was super refreshing) and that all of their polishes are free of toxins. I missed the typical massage chairs, but honestly didn't mind because my leg/foot massage was AMAZING. Kimberly did a fantastic deep tissue massage before my pedicure. She constantly checked in throughout the process (ensuring my nails were the right length, the cuticle buffing wasn't too hard, etc.) and offered friendly conversation. I'll definitely be back! read more

Such a great place to get a pedicure. When you arrive, they offer you a champagne or mimosa for free... and it has sparkles in it!! The ambience is great. Great people, Good conversation and decent music playing. They have boutique clothes for purchase and a decent selection of color. They do not have massage chairs but they do have raised soft sofa chairs to sit in. I was a little disappointed that the dirt/polish was not removed from the corners of my big toes, other than that it was a nice experience. They do a great job for the most part on pedicures. The massage was lacking but you can purchase additional massages. They offer monthly packages as well where you get free add on services. Also I think if you check in your get a free paraffin wax. read more

One of the best customer service experiences I have had with a nail salon! Professional, kind and knowledgeable!

I love this salon so much! They make sure I'm satisfied with my nails every time. I LOVE both Tonya and Pari for my nails, the manager Kris is amazing, and they always make sure I'm taken care of. I will always recommend them. I started trials with them for my wedding after trying a couple other salons in town and I immediately felt at home with them. They made it work even through hurricane craziness and have continued to always have their clients backs! I couldn't recommend them enough!! read more

Walked in over an hour before closing but was told that they didn't have a tech to do it because the only tech wanted to leave early. Don't advertise late hours if you don't have someone to actually work late. Employee who spoke to me was dismissive and rude. Won't be back. read more

I switched over to only using Paint nail bar permanently. After being a repeat offender at mma chop shops, where every stylist is rude and rushed. I can easily say these past two years with Paint have been a blessing. This location in particular is amazing. They always have appointments and their staff is extremely pleasant and conforming. Love my new summer set read more

Ok. So I'm an acrylics girl. Always have gotten acrylics. Went on a limb to spend the money and try out gel-x which I was so excited about. Went into Paint to soak off my acrylics and got a beautiful first set of gel-x nails. Although pricey, I was overall happy. With chrome and tip it was around $130. Fast forward 2.5 weeks, my thumb nail completely popped off and about 5 other nails were lifting and hanging by a limb. Came back into the shop and the manager mentioned that since I was outside of the 10 day window, they can't take care of me. Even though I needed to soak off my brand new $130 set of brand new gel-x and get another set. After an hour of soaking off the nails, I went with the shorter set this time in hopes it would help with lifting. I wanted to do a pretty ombré French and the girl who was doing my nails couldn't figure out how to do it. At this point I've now been there 2.5 hours. Upset, I literally just said I'll keep the base coat of the "ombré French" I didn't get and be on my way. Hating my nails, I just wanted to get out of there. The manager gave me $15 off my 2nd set totaling me out to $85 this time. Which again, is absurd. Now looking at this second set- you tell me if these look like nails worth $85? The worst, lumpiest, ugliest nails I've ever had. And to top it off- a week later, a nail is already lifting. I'll be soaking these off and going back to acrylics. Don't care how bad they are for my nails. read more

I called to find out what organic nail polish brands they have and the girl who answered said she didn't know if they had any. And she didn't offer to find out. This place lists itself as an organic salon. So either they don't or the person on the phone is completely clueless. read more

Needed a little me time so decided to pop in and try this place for a quick pedicure. Was not disappointed. Niya was my nail tech and was both skilled and friendly. The way she massaged the back of ankles along the Achilles' tendon, OMG! Such a cute salon as well. Ask for Niaya you won't be disappointed. read more

I initially left a great review. Unfortunately when I returned for a fill I did not have a great experience. They recommended a matte finish and their matte polish kept creating wrinkles on the nails. It took 2.5 HOURS and I left with nails so bad I'm embarrassed to show my hands. The lengths are uneven, shape is different on each finger, there are ripples in the texture, and even the thickness is different from one finger to the next. I was asked if they were "livable" before being rushed out the door. Don't want to pay $60 for a FILL that's "livable". Will post pics if possible. Definitely disappointing. read more

I've stopped in a handful of nail salons since moving to Florida, and this spot is one of the better ones I've been to in the St. Pete area. Albeit, their prices are a little steep, that's the only downside. But they take great care of you when you stop in, and they're really thorough with their work. Their pedicure chairs are really comfortable and the entire salon is super relaxing. The staff is very nice and they genuinely want to interact with you when you're there. I haven't been there since well before Covid, but I'll be stopping in soon and I have confidence they'll be taking the proper safety measures for their customers! read more

Wanted to love this place but was extremely disappointed. I saw photos online and was so excited for my appointment! I saw many pics of cute designs and figured I'd come in and just get a regular gel manicure to test it out; but what I received was the absolute worst gel manicure of my life! To start, when I walked in for my appointment and confirmed that I currently had in acrylics the receptionist and my nail tech gave me the strangest looks. I now know that this is because they don't use a drill for removal but at $30 for a removal, I could do without the shocked looks. Things seemed to start off okay; but I started to get nervous when the tech kept asking me if my nails looked fine for painting. I thought this was extremely weird considering she's the professional; but figured she was maybe just trying to be nice. She then moved on to paint my nails and the color was incredibly uneven. I got a light color which can be tricky; but ultimately had to ask her to fill areas in where you could clearly see my natural nail color showing through the light blue. I now wish I hadn't said anything because her "corrections" left my nails bumpy and uneven (although all the other nails were bumpy too so I suppose it doesn't make a difference). I planned to suffer through this manicure for at least a week and a half; but she also didn't paint to the tip and/or cuticle edge on several nails so I probably won't even make it a week before needing to go somewhere for a full new manicure. My nails were also extremely thick for a gel manicure - this could just be there polish, but my bet is that it's because she didn't remove all of the acrylic. I ended up just paying and leaving because I'd already been there so long and could tell she was antsy for her next appointment; but safe to say I cancelled the pedicure appointment I'd made for Tuesday and will not recommend and/or return. If I had to say anything positive, the salon at least seemed clean and was very quiet with only a few guests; but other than that I'd avoid at all costs! Also the site says that they offer a complimentary beverage; but I watched every customer around me get offered a water, while I was offered nothing. read more

Tried this salon for the first time because I couldn't get into my normal one last minute. It's a clean, aesthetically pleasing salon and the staff were all very nice. I'm giving it a 3 stars because 1.) the prices were high for basic nail services. I received a "Lickity Split" gel manicure (so no cuticle cut or massage) and a regular pedicure which was $84. Not including tip.. 2.) the tech I had did not do the full service of the pedicure. She skipped the massage and warm towel in the legs (I am a mom to a toddler and currently 31 weeks pregnant so you could imagine my disappointment when I did not receive that 10 min of a massage). She tried to do gel on my toes and when I corrected her and told her I wanted regular polish, that must have thrown her off her routine, But I thought maybe she would circle back and do the massage and never did. For almost $50 for a regular pedicure... not worth it. 3.) my gel nails chipped within 3 days. I went to a wedding which is why I got my nails done, and had a chipped nail for the wedding. Overall, I'm just disappointed for the amount I paid and the high hopes I had for very minimal service and results I received. Probably won't go back. read more

Easy to make appointments. Consistent and timely appointment reminders. Clean, well appointed salon. (Love the music they play!) Responsible masking policy (I'm immunocompromised). Professional nail techs - efficient and caring... working with me on post chemo nail challenges. No electric drills/filing. Environmentally conscious tools and products. I drive 40 minutes every 2 weeks to this specific salon. Highly recommend! read more

I walked in without an appointment just hoping they could squeeze me in. They were so accommodating and I was seated right away. I got a nice glass of complimentary champagne ( a girls dream while getting nails done) and my artist Maya was so nice and fun to talk to. She took excellent care of my hands. After all of the horrible experiences I've had at other salons that I went to for the convenience of them, this was a dream. ALSO...they let my puppy sit next to me. How amazing is that?!? read more

Highly recommend this nail place! I've been here twice before and the front desk staff and all the manicure staff are so nice and welcoming. I love how you can book your appointments online and that they offer you a free mimosa or espresso upon entrance. They have a great selection of colors and all the nail products are pretty clean, which is nice compared to the average salon. This place is also extremely clean, and all the staff are properly spread out and using sufficient sanitary measures. My first time here I got gel extensions and Hannah did a wonderful job. She really took her time and made sure my nails were perfect. I make a point to come back to the salon every time I read more

I like this nail salon. They seem to understand nail care like pushing back the cuticles instead of cutting them. They don't use cheese graters only buffers on the feet. I love the scrubs and moisturizers. The staff is amazing from bookings to cashing out. If you're looking for a salon to get pampered with real nail care, you've made a good choice. Namaste. read more

Dia was so friendly. She was running a little behind but made sure to apologize for my wait and didn't make me feel rushed at all when it was my turn.

I will definitely be back! read more

The space was lovely, the staff was friendly, and it's a great location. Plus, we got our appointments online easy. But the services for pedicure and facial are horrible and way over priced! $70 for a pedicure that was so basic and not relaxing at all as it usually is at my place back home, and for half the price!!! Don't waste your money! Facial was $60, not a bad price but it was again nothing relaxing. The girl just rubbed my face with a few products, used steam and that was it! Very disappointing and I would not go back. However, their front store had some cute shirts, and stuff but thats about it. Go somewhere else and save yourself the money as customers, we deserve better! especially for these prices. read more

I stopped in while walking by downtown to ask Paint for pricing to get my nails redone (spoke to Kris, The manager, in person). . . She convinced me to transition to their more natural gel product from dip (which I have used for a number of years). I asked what the cost would be? Kris said $10 for removal of my current dip, and $44 for their new gel. So I reiterated, "therefore you're telling me the total will be $54? " She said yes, $54. I reiterated for confirmation again, asking if $54 would be the total to have my dip removed and the new gel put on with the product she is recommending, and she again said yes, and said I will make a note for your appointment tomorrow that we will give you the free top coat something or other, so yes, your total will be $54 and that's it. I went in today, had my dip removed, the new gel product they recommended put on my nails. It definitely took longer than expected! Over 1.5 hours. When I went to check out at the counter, they said that will be $89. I'm like Huh?? I explained that I spoke to Kris yesterday in person and she assured me it was $54 total, and that she was going to comp the topcoat shine thing or whatever it is... So that it should be $54 based on the detailed conversation I had with Kris the day before. The lady checking me out agreed to come down to $69 and that's it. I paid the $69, because I could see there was no sense arguing with them. I am very disappointed, as I feel this is extremely unethical. If a business tells someone X amount is the cost, and they confirm and reconfirm with you and assure you that's the cost right to your face, that should be what it is. I am a business owner also, and I would never do this to my customers. It's just downright wrong and sneaky. The salon itself was nice. My nails look good, but we will see how they hold up compared to my past products. Just overall super disappointed about the experience. Update, May 2022: The manager, Kris, contacted me after she saw the review. She apologized up-and-down. She said she had no idea what occurred and that the price she quoted me was not honored. She asked me to come in to pick up the refund/difference, which I did the next day and she refunded me the difference between what I had paid and what she had quoted me the day prior. I appreciate her reaching out and her integrity and taking care of this. However, I feel it should've never happened this way in the first place. I will not go back to this salon, but wanted to re-post an update that Kris did attempt to do the right thing. read more

I was literally ready to walk out of my apartment headed to my appointment when I received notice from the salon that they could not honor my time slot. Note that this was a rescheduled appointment because one their techs had a "viral infection". I've been a loyal customer of this salon for years. But for a long time now when I make an appointment I don't get the tech I request and/or they need to change the time. All the people I've referred have had similar if not worse experiences. They've moved on and it's time that I do the same. I wish that scheduling was my only issue. Services have been inconsistent and often left me in pain or hiding the embarrassing results of poor quality when out in public. I hope this salon gets it together. I can't imagine that it can survive on naive tourists without a regular customer base. read more

If you are looking for a deep massage, relaxing experience, and a high quality pedicure this is NOT, I repeat NOT the place. If you are looking for a clean environment, friendly staff, and an upbeat atmosphere this IS the place, but frankly I'm not paying $45+ dollars again for poorly polished nails. Disclaimer: no massage here whatsoever in case that's something you enjoy during a spa experience. Maybe it was simply my technician but my leg was simple petted in the massage section of the pedicure and there aren't any massage chairs which is kinda a bummer. So sad to give this place a low rating because the staff is so kind and I love supporting local business. However the price does not match the quality of the service so for the conscientious consumer-save the money read more
