I recently moved here from out of state and my nails were a hot mess. I've been coming here regularly for 4 months now and I'm so glad to finally have found my nail tech. Angie got the perfect oval shape the last time I was here and when I wanted to go back to short nails she didn't skip a beat. She soaked off the acrylic, got me down to my natural nails and they were healthy and undamaged. Vivi did my pedi and she's done my nails before too. She remembered me and my daughter and was kind enough to ask after her. The salon is nice and light and bright. The nail techs are clean and will make adjustments to you if you're picky (like me). Oh and they got all this done in under and hour today! read more

My mom and I came here twice to get regular polish pedicures. After the second visit, both of us noticed that some of the polish on our toes had smeared off. We had let our nails dry for 30-45 minutes in the salon and approximately four hours afterwards by running errands in sandals. We remembered from the first time we visited this business that the SAME problem had happened before, but we thought that it was our fault for not letting the polish dry long enough (~30 mins). Noticing that the same problem happened again the second time, we called and asked to speak to the salon manager. We requested a refund for our most recent visit because, in total over 4 visits, we have paid $180 + tip for four separate pedicures which have all been a complete waste of money. We were told that no refunds are offered, including partial refunds, and that our only option was to return for more polish, which is too inconvenient for us due to drive time. Our suspicion is that this nail salon tries to pass off gel polish without the UV light as " regular polish". They told us on the phone that they have consistent problems with their regular polish never drying. Apparently, only the manager, Angie, knows how to correctly apply regular nail polish per our conversation. I do NOT recommend this nail salon. read more

*** UPDATE*** THIS PLACE IS A NIGHTMARE!!!! EVEN WITH AN APPOINTMENT! After loving previous visits, we returned for an appointment for pedicures... we were asked "you don't want your nails done too?" And we said "no thank you!" We were scoffed at and rolled her eyes.... We picked our gel colors while we sat our feet in hot water. 30 minutes past our appointment time we were still in the chairs with no pedicures, one woman came over to my friends chair and asked her if she picked her color and began her pedicure. She then tells my friend the color she chose is too thin and won't be what she wants, and insisted she get a dark peach color which was WAYYY off from what she chose. She didn't offer to let her look at colors again & she just says "WELL DO WHITE THEN". She then proceeds to file my friends toenail completely crooked.... And paints them white.... At this point, i now sat with my feet in cold water. I eventually pulled my feet out of the water bc my friends pedicure was completed before mine even began. It is now 45 minutes past appointment time & my pedicurist finally walks over. She asked "is the water cold?" I said "yes" and she laughed and said sorry. She did not add more hot water to make it bearable for me & throughout the entire process still dipped my feet in that cold water to wash off the scrub, etc. The color I chose was the same color that my friends pedicurist told her was too thin, and I asked my pedicurist if I should be choosing another color since my friend couldn't get that color.., she looked at me crazy and painted my toes with the color we both wanted to begin with... it was in fact not too thin at all? The top of the uv light hit my toenail and made a dent in the top, and when I brought it to her attention and apologized for possibly not having my toes flat, she didn't fix it and rolled her eyes. read more

This is my cousin's preferred salon so we come here when visiting. I came in to get a gel manicure and declined to get any tips or acrylic... if I haven't seen your work with my own eyes (and repeatedly, at that) I'm not trusting you to do them. My tech's name was Vicky and I had to ask her if they sterilized their equipment when she first brought out an emery board that wasn't brand new. She cleaned her tools in front of me and I will say she did a sold job shaping my (very short) natural nails and cleaning up my cuticles. She also made sure to give me 3 coats of color and she did a solid job with painting my nails. Nothing memorable and nothing terrible. read more

Upon arrival I was told to go to chair number nine for a pedicure.... I noticed there was a little water with stuff floating around in there and I asked her (I'm not sure her name but she was a young girl with glasses very thin girl with an attitude ) Is anyone going to wash out the tub? She replied we put plastic in the tub. I said that does not matter. The tub should be washed out. I don't want to put my foot in the tub which things floating around in it and if the plastic should get a hole in it now everything that's in that water is going to be on me so I asked was there any other tubs that she can use and she said they're all the same.... so I refused the service and walked out. There's no way that anyone should be putting their foot in the tub with things floating around from the previous person. Please be mindful and careful and look in the tub before putting your feet in there. Everyone else was there seemed to be OK with it, but I wasn't. read more

I go here every 3 weeks for gel toes and dip nails. Sophia is my tech and does wonderful work! She doesn't like to do "basic" or "boring" designs. Let her know what you like and let then let her be an artist... she'll blow you away with her skill! Everyone working here is super nice and thoughtful! read more

I have gotten two pedicures and both times the polish has wiped off of several toes on the first day. They are using gel polish instead of regular polish when you don't want a gel pedicure. Do not waste your money here! read more

I will preface this with the fact that I never get my nails done. I've done this exactly 3 times in my life, but everyone needs to feel pampered once in awhile. I got their mid-priced pedicure. Overall I think they did a good job. For my finger nails I liked that they weren't overly pushy to get me to do something that would cost significantly more. I hate the feel of long nails and I appreciated how great my nails look short. The reason why I took away a star is that I'm not 100% positive that tools are being properly sanitized. Many things didn't look single use and I didn't see anything to indicate that they were being sanitized. I would have felt better if they left no room for doubt. read more

I have been here multiple times since they opened but stopped going regularly a couple of years ago when they increased their prices and the quality of the pedicure went down. I went again last week with a friend, waited 45 min for them to start my pedicure and then got the worst pedicure of my life. The technician was in a hurry bc they were busy and massaged my feet and legs for less than a minute. I purchased the modern pedicure but she barely touched my calluses even when I requested she do more. I should've looked closer before I left the salon, but had limited time by this point. When I got home, I found bubbles in the polish, 2 of my toenails were cut lower in the middle with sharp long points on the side, my feet were dry and cracked with calluses, and my big toenail was crooked. I called the salon and spoke to the owner who told me to come back in and they would "fix it" I returned on my next day off and the owner immediately had an attitude with me. When I showed her my feet, she was yelling and demanded that I point out the nail tech that did my pedicure. By then, the entire salon was silent and staring at me. She refused to fix my calluses but agreed to repaint my nails. When the tech got to me, she seemed angry and was rough. She did not fully remove the darker nail polish I had picked for the previous pedicure before applying the light pink color so my nails now look dirty in the edges. One of my nails is even sharper now, and the color she applied has bubbles again. This salon is beautiful, feels clean and Vicki (who I have seen there several times before) is amazing. Unfortunately their customer service and quality of work of some of their nail techs is horrendous. I never received an apology and instead found myself apologizing to them for complaining. I spent $40 +$8 tip for a service I was not provided. Instead I was publicly humiliated and will never return. I strongly advise you to choose a different salon. Nail Style on Georgia Rd is much better! read more

C'est La Vie Nail Boutique - Dip nails, color is 280. - Nail Salons Near Me - Simpsonville, South Carolina

The worst experience ever. I will never go back. Sophia was the nail tech that I had. She was rude. She rushed through my set. Kept insisting I get medium nails when I told her what I wanted. She wouldn't let me wash my after soaking off my original set. She probably spent 5 mins putting the acrylic powder on and another 5 mins filing and shaping. She was rude when moving my hand the way she needed it to go. This place is the worst. The owner was rushing her staff because they were busy and they wanted to charge me $95.00. When I showed the manager she insisted that they get someone else to fix it. I would not let my dog go here. If I could give negative stars I would. Do not go here!!! read more

Beautiful place, super nice staff, great job on my polish, massage chairs were nice. My only complaint is that the massage part of the pedicure didn't even last two minutes. My only reason for wanting a pedicure is for the massage so that was a big let down for me. read more

I have been going here for awhile now and I always enjoy the service and the outcome. With saying that, my last trip was absolutely disappointing. I went yesterday and prior to that a week before. I picked a color last week and when they did it, i wasn't too sure if it was really the color i picked but i figured it might be a little different on the actual nail. (dip powder) Not even a week after four nails on my left hand started to lift. I had a young girl that looked a little newer maybe so I figured she was still learning. I went back yesterday to have them fix the ones that were lifting and they asked who did them. I told them and they sat me at a different counter next to my friend. The SAME girl from last time came over and pulled me to her station. She put my hand in the bag to soak and TWENTY minutes later after one lady saw me looking around, finally had her come back to finish. I don't mind waiting, but no one told me. I was thinking they were going to get mine done asap since they sat me down right away. Remembering what color I had last time I showed them and she dipped my four nails on my one hand and finished them up. She even pointed out that it wasn't the same color.. but proceeded to let me get up to leave. I pointed it out at the desk when I asked if they were charging me and the lady proceeded to try and convince me it was the same color and that "it will change after I wash my hands more.." I think it's safe to say when looking at this picture that it's not the same color, nor did it change. I am highly dissatisfied and will not be going back. The girl who did my nails was also very rude as she was last time. very short and didn't seem to care. had some others complain to me about her as well. read more

I've been here twice now and still haven't had one good thing happen. The rush the entire experience and don't even take time to make sure your nails are even. I got simple dip and she spent maybe 10 minutes on my nails total. She didn't have me wash my hands after using the drill so I had powder all over my nails when she put the coats in. The are bumpy, uneven, and there's even jagged nails where the drill slipped and made a cut in the. read more

When I first visited I wanted to give this place 5 stars but recent visits have changed my mind. I always make an appointment to have my nails done but for the last few appointments I've made, I had to wait 20-30 minutes to be seated. I understand these places are busy but if you don't honor appointment times, don't offer appointments then. Today I went in for an SNS dip. I called before to see if there was any availability in the early afternoon, and if not what was available on Saturday. They told me to come in around 2 PM. I arrive at 2 PM and only a few customers are present getting pedicures. I ask if it's possible there is time for me to get a pedicure and if not, not a problem. They said yes there would be time. About 10 minutes later, I was seated at a pedicure chair. I turned on the massage function of the chair which by default lasts 15 minutes. I waited for 2 rounds on the massage chair and no one came to do my pedicure or start my manicure. By 2:45 I finally told them I wanted to just have my polish taken off and leave. I did not need to come at 2, I could've come later in the day or even Saturday but was told to come at 2 for an appointment. For walkins and expecting to wait a bit, this place is great. If you're used to making appointments and having those appointments honored, go elsewhere. This place does not respect your time in that regard. Lastly the quality of the pedicures and manicures are fabulous here. Mari does an amazing job. read more

I'm a bit disappointed, my gel pedicure was great and it looks incredible but my nails, not so much. This was literally 4-5 days after getting my nails done. Already chipping and coming off and very very little care to my cuticles. For the money I paid for these nails I am very disappointed in the quality and how well they held up read more

I enjoyed myself very much at this salon and felt they needed a great review. I had gotten a pedicure and gel manicure done at this place and loved it. This salon takes nails salon in a new direction. They definitely steer themselves away from your traditional nail salon. The interior is beautiful, very clean and bright with crystal chandeliers and lighted ceilings. The staff are very friendly. Sally, the owner makes everyone feel welcomed and as if we're a part of her family. Hospitality is definitely their game. My tech she always make sure I'm comfortable and always ask if everything is ok during my pedicure. One of my favorite things about the salon is you don't see the big eye-sore wall of polish. Once you come in it's a little confusing at first but they explain to you that they have a color pallet to choose. I loved that!!! I opted for the modern pedicure where you get the wax lotion and it felt and smelled amazing!!! I know I found my forever spa! Thanks Sally!!! read more

I recently took my mother to the nail salon for a mother's day manicure and pedicure. When going inside, I noticed the beautiful decor and interior, but the pleasant suprises didn't stop there. The team was not only attentive, but they were very delicate with my mom and her needs. She has certain mobility issues, so the technician ensured my mom was comfortable and relaxed. During her pedicure, the technician was very detailed with every portion of her food, then her manicure was just as technical, she did an excellent job. I would absolutely recommend this place and will be bringing my mother to this salon again. read more

It tough finding a good nail salon. The thing I really dislike about moving is having to find a new one! C'est La Vie has everything I look for in a salon. absolutely spotless, a lot of friendly staff, great time management, good prices and the newest technology. I had a pedicure. A full set of nails - dipped - and waxing. I have no complaints - everyone was professional, friendly and the atmosphere was very relaxing. I'll be back! read more

If I could give negative stars I would. I went to get my nails done there on September 20, 2019 and got a severe infection that has cost me almost my entire pinky nail and has spread to my ring finger and I am STILL in severe pain from it. I have been to the doctor and tried many different things to help and I can't find anything to make the infection stop. I believe their utensils gave me a staff infection from being unclean. I am 100% positive this nail salon is where the infection came from. I've taken pictures as the infections has spread to document it. Do not go here. I don't know if my pinky nail will ever grow back or when the pain of the infection will stop spreading. read more

I have been wanting to find a new nail salon since I moved here not too long ago. I have done research and have searched the 'net high and low and I came across C'est La Vie. This location is super close to where I live. I walked in and was greeted immediately by the manager at the front desk. The atmosphere was clean, modern, and calming. The manager sat me right away in the pedicure seat and my service started within 5 minutes. As I was sitting in my seat, I observed how sweet and professional the manager was and appreciated her kindness to everyone who walked in her door. The pricing for the services were not bad. $35 for an upgraded pedicure, and $40 for a full set of dip nails. I did want tips, but the gentleman who did my nails suggested that I do the dip until I can grow my own nails since this makes them stronger. Less damaging to the nail essentially. I obliged, but wish I had better shape to my short-ish nails. The do have a lot of color options as well. I will definitely be returning! read more

Pretty salon BUT sub par service & several "hidden charges". They did my mani & pedi at the same time - not allowing me to relax during leg massage & told me not to turn on chair massage or read a magazine & making me twist into awkward positions while getting my toes & fingers done. Expect lots of additional charges - I've never had a mani where I had to pay extra for cuticle clean up plus they said they don't do gel anymore (?!) While I was going thru this 3 other ladies having similar experiences were rolling their eyes & we kept giving each other these puzzled looks. So after $80 (for a simple mani/pedi!!!) I will NOT be returning. Oh - and when the manager asked me if I was happy & I said "no" she said "well okay - do you want to leave a tip?" read more

I used to come here regularly a few years ago but stopped coming due to my appointment time never being respected. I ended up trying it again today by bringing my bonus daughter for her birthday and I am reminded yet again why I do not give them my business. I don't Typically leave reviews unless it's excellent service or absolutely horrible service. Today unfortunately was horrible. I waited 45 minutes(my bonus daughter finished a full set by the time I was getting started) He chopped my toenail uneven and so short it bled and burned when I put my foot back in the water. When I reacted out of pain and pulled my foot out he pushed my hand away and said leave it leave it and shoved my foot back in water. The polish also burned badly when applied. End all be all, the polish is on my skin, my big toe nail is chopped sideways and there's a dent in the polish on the other big toe. At least I tried but I definitely will not be back this time for good. read more

I'm very disappointed with this place. I really wanted to love it. I came in today at 6pm and had a reasonable wait time. I got a fill in and regular polish. I sat under the dryer for 10 min like I was told. I drove home (about 15 min) fit inside and noticed the tips of a few nails were already smudged. Took a shower and now the polish is completely messed up on just about every single nail. Complete waste of money. I can't even get them fixed unless I either do them myself or pay someone else because I'm out of town the next several days. read more

Nice people and pretty interior but believe me when I say that's all this place has going for it. I've been twice and have been disappointed both times. The first time I got dip nails. I left the salon and automatically noticed that it already looked as if my nails had grown out. Along with this, the tips they put on my nails were supposed to be square, but looked like fans. The second I got gel to see if they did a better job with a gel manicure. My nails looked rigid and were still transparent. I could probably do the same if not better with my own gel kit at home. Two days after the manicure they were peeling off (note that I didn't do much with my hands that could've damaged my nails). In conclusion, don't spend your money here. The picture below is of my gel nails 4 days after getting them done. read more

The nail tech bullied my 16 year old daughter into getting dip powder after she repeatedly said she didn't want it. My daughter didn't want to cause a scene so she let her do it and she ended up with lots of lumpy spots and red, raw cuticles. My other daughter got gel polish and it looks like her 5 year old cousin did it. Both my teens used their own money that they earned from chores and wanted to spend it on a special visit to the nail salon together. It's very disappointing when a business blatantly ignores their client's wishes. My kids feel like the whole thing was a waste of time and money. We will not return to this nail salon. read more

Awesome place. Gorgeous and so clean inside. I came here after the salon across the street totally botched my nails (don't go there!!!!). I got a dip powder mani here for $45 and that includes the tips to add some length to my nails. The lady who did my nails (I think her name was Sophia) was nice as was the rest of the staff. This place is my new go-to!!! read more

The best pedicure I've gotten in the upstate! Staff is very welcoming, attentive and just want to make sure you're having a pleasant experience. The atmosphere is very chic, modern and relaxing. Upon sitting they always offer clients something to drink, there's a wide selection of nail colors as well as services and treatments. I was highly impressed and will certainly be back. Another plus is their discount card. Get it stamped 5 times and you get $5 off that service. Not bad. read more

Decided to try the new nail salon in the Martin Farms shopping center...the salon was very clean and the staff were friendly. My daughter and I went for pedicures and got in pretty quickly without appointments. The water was lukewarm at best to start with. The lady that did my pedi only said hi and nice color. I've done a better job at home making my feet feel smooth. My feet do not feel as is if I just paid to have a pedicure. I will not be spending any more money here. read more

WORST MANICURE I HAVE EVER GOTTEN! If you are looking for a new nail salon, try another place instead! First, we had to book an appointment online and then when we wanted to change our appt. we were unable to do so. I called and left an appt. early in the day and received no call back so we just kept our later appts and went in as scheduled. When we walked in and told them we had appointments for regular manicures, they REPEATEDLY tried to talk us into gel manicures or dip powder. (This was done by probably 4 different people informing us that our regular manicures would not last and it would take 25 minutes for them to dry) At one point they even had someone come over and show me their clumpy nail polish and that's why they can't do the regular polish. I was just wanting a pale pink/nude color done. Nothing hard or complicated! They finally agreed to do our regular manicures but left my nails uneven, spent maybe 1 minute massaging our hands and were completely done with our manicures in about 10 minutes! Then we found out that they charge $20 for just a plain manicure! The whole experience was not relaxing, not professional and overpriced. read more
