    Dips

    Received a great dip manicure from Nancy. She is a perfectionist. Full set of dips love coil nails.

    Since January 2021 I have been coming here. I have had a few technicians and then I was recommended to try Anna. I must say I was ready to find another salon but Anna is great! She is gentle, careful and quiet!!! Sometimes the salon is loud and crowded so I try to make an appointment early or late in the day. I don't understand why customers talk so loudly while getting a manicure or pedicure or talk on their phones.

    They do the color very far from cuticles this is only 3 days old .

    They don't do the best job here .. they do the paint very far from the cuticles , and it's a very strong smell in there. I am still on the hunt for a good nail salon.

    $37 pearl pedicure

    I was very displeased with my service. $37 for a pedicure. And it lasted only 15mins! And the lady was rushing me to leave! My toe nails weren't even dry and she was already trying to get me to get up and pay. And when I asked the lady why the services only last 15mins she lied and said it was longer when it wasn't. The front receptionist wasn't helpful either said couldn't do anything because the owner was in. Called the owner and no answer. Mind you she said she started at 3pm. Time stamp says 3:22. And I sat at 3 but she ran the water while I was using the restroom and when I went to change the color so when I sat down it was cold. So a lot of the time was her scooping out the water with a tiny bowl to empty it and refill it with hot water.

    Service here is exceptional!! Polite, professional and quality of their work is great. I am very picky with my shape and polish and this place meets all my expectations. I always leave happy and get complimented very often. Highly recommend!!

    Love cool nails. Been going here for a few months now for pedicures. Nice & clean salon. I book with Michelle she's awesome. Martha is pretty good as well. Like any other salon they don't scrub your feet to perfection but it's better then most places I been going recently.

    Clean friendly. I am recovering from a knee surgery and needed a polish change. Diana got me right in.

    Best Nail Salon in East Fort Lauderdale. Always clean and calm even when it's busy. Pedicures are through and relaxing and the atmosphere is soothing. I get Dip Powder service on my natural nails and love it every time. The color selection for Reg polish, infinity polish, gel, and dip is vast. Sending love and a major shout out to all the employees. You all do such great job!

    I love my nails! This is one of the best nail salons I've ever been to and I'm very picky. I moved here from NYC last year and searched before I found Cool nails. 2 months ago I moved to Miami and now I drive to Fort Lauderdale for my nails. That's how much better they are than any other nail salon. I suggest making an appointment because the secret is out, they get busy. Great pedicures too.

    Thi is the best and always exceeds my expectations! Hannah is very meticulous and gives me a perfect pedicure every time. Love Cool Nails!!

    I have been coming here for about 2 years now and I will always recommend all my friends and family here! The best service and always so welcoming. Linh and Thi are both amazing and always do my nails exactly how I want them without a problem! If you're looking for a go to nail salon, Cool Nails is the place!

    It's always tough to try a new place. There's 'how they do things', and little differences between nail techs that can make a difference. The guy at the reception was certainly 'brusque'. He seems gentlemanly enough, if oddly out of place in a nail salon. I picked my gel color out and was soon seen. Once we got past the mask/language barrier, we were off. Two bleeding cuticles (because apparently I have thin skin), seven nails one shape, three random shapes, and the wrong color later, I'm generally less than impressed. I said so too, and apparently the solution to this is too just paint another color over the top. Meh... Toe color polish was fine from other lady. This was a recommendation from a friend who swears by them, I suggest you give it a try and see what you think. Every day, and every tech is different. They were also crazy busy, my tech being constantly interrupted by the reception guy trying to figure out how the book works. That being said, I'll keep looking.

I was planning on going first but Debbie grabbed my friend while I was filling out the paperwork. Since I was the one who convinced her to go I was so relieved when she walked out happy.

Don't go anywhere else. If you're a guy thinking about trying it. Do it! You will be glad you did.

Brandy, the receptionist was so friendly, kind, fun and it really set the tone! Then I got waxed by Tena, she was also so nice, friendly, and fun! The studio was so clean, every client gets their own waxing pot - so it feels personal and the wax is fresh, which is soooo important! The wax was sooo gentle and didn't hurt at all, I couldn't believe that I barely felt it! This wax is amazing for everyone, but especially beginners who have never gotten waxed. (Zero pain!) Also, they gave me an ice pack after to close the pores - this was just such a nice little add on that makes a difference. I have extremely sensitive skin and usually feel a little uncomfortable after my wax, this time around I feel amazing - my skin feels the softest it has felt and there is ZERO irritation. They also have an amazing program - I pay around $65 a month to have unlimited bikini/brazilians.

But the last two times I went in I requested the same services but got charged way more and I tried disputing it to the front desk but she acted "confused" and said that's the service I got but it wasn't what I requested. I was obviously frustrated enough that someone (management I assume) called me back to "help" but did nothing to fix my overcharge she just talked in circles about how they had to charge me that cuz I requested the service. I didn't. So I'm frustrated and still needing to finish the job I was overcharged for. I would absolutely not go here if you want to be valued and respected as a customer. Bare minimum if you want truly hairless legs avoid this place.
