    Great service. It includes wine. They have chrome options which is what i splurged on for an additional $15. Really nice atmosphere. Would definitely return.

    I had Nin for my services and she was great! I had an accident earlier in the year that left me with nerve damage in one of my hands so l've been really guarded and don't like people touching me--this was my first manicure since the accident. Nin was gentle and took my notes about what I can currently tolerate. Additionally, she took the polish right to the nail base and edges of the nail and shaped my nails just how I wanted on the first attempt--l'm extremely picky about my nails and her work all around was pretty darn flawless! I only rate 4 stars because there was not clarity on pricing. I originally booked for a regular polish mani pedi and was quoted $60 total. On arrival, I asked what the up charge would be for a gel cat eye mani and was told it was $15 extra. At checkout, I was told it was $15 extra for the gel plus $15 extra for the cat eye and somehow that added up to a $95 total? I still don't understand the math on that Nin was amazing, though, and I would see her again, just probably for a regular polish appointment. Having a physical pricing sheet shown to me would have really helped in making an informed decision on the service I wanted, instead of walking out with a slightly soured taste in my mouth from the miscommunication

    Leah always makes my nails look perfect! All the ladies in the salon are very talented. 10/10!

    I've now been 3 or 4 times, each person was very friendly and did a quality job. I'm so happy I found Fonda after losing my last nail tech of 3 years in Tampa. Dip ($55) has lasted 3 weeks each time. I am happy to say I'll be a regular here as long as I live in St Pete!

    Love love love this place! It was clean, people were friendly and there were sooo many nail polishes to choose from! I got a basic pedicure for $30 which is very standard pricing. The technician was so thorough and did an excellent job with my toes! I got there right at 10am so there was plenty of parking. I would highly recommend this place to anyone!

    Me and my wife are new to the area and this is by far the best nail salon in the St. Pete area. Everyone is extremely nice and super professional. My wife loves her nails and this will be our regular spot for sure!!!

    Friendly, professional, efficient, and all around fantastic experience. Tia was my nail technician. She was a delight to talk to, and she gave me a mani/pedi that I'm just loving. I just moved to the area and was looking for a new nail salon. I believe I've found it.

    Tia did a great job with my nails. They really needed some TLC and now they are looking good.

    Tia did a great job! She was very helpful and detailed. My nails really needed some TVC and they have turned out great.

    Beach ready!

    Great location and staff. I can usually get an appointment for same day and nice massage chairs. Good quality mani and pedis.

    The vibes are immaculate here! All of the nail techs are very kind and listen to what you want. This is my third time coming and never had my nail polish chip. I will be back!!

    You can see how the light shows them being perfectly shaped

    Kelly is amazing! I'm super picky. I like them perfectly square and perfectly shaped. I like that when the gloss shows there are no bumps in the nails. I also like them to be perfectly sealed because I work with water. Kelly has done all of that and more. She was also very fast which I love because I get pockets of time. Thanks again Kelly! See you soon but not too soon

    Full set

    If you need a quick, well done set Kelly is your girl! She always delivers. Thank you Kelly!

    I went there 2/26/2025. I am writing this review almost a month later (3/25/2025)…read more 1. I was late and they accepted me with no attitude. Do not expect this, but I appreciate the KINDNESS. we are all only human and make errors. 2. I am a hairy, light skinned black girl with dense coarse hair and the way my skin looks today, STILL AMAZING. I got a bikini and a butt sugar and it's still 95% hair free. I will be back! NO INGROWNS. AND NY HAIR IS COILY! 3. My waxer was a light skin black lady who was extremely gentle and nice. Next time I will speak up and ask if she can hold my skin more. Her ethnicity doesn't matter, but In today climate- it is nice to find POC to give you services in such a non diverse place / place lacking black estheticians in st. Pete + I find people who look like me to have similar issues. Skip to reason 5 for why I am super happy! 4. The establishment is CLEAN AND PROFESSIONAL. this is not some overpriced stuffy dark/white spa, it's not a janky home spa- it is a perfect place for a wax and self care! 5. Lastly, do not expect this, but the eatitician could tell I didn't exfoliate and gave me an exfoliation glove and instructed me to use it a few times a week after my shower, while wet, but clean lol. I also think this is why I have seen a huge reduction in ingrowns, so her kindness and willingness to give me a cheap exfoliation glove , 1000% means I am going back!! It's the care and consideration for me. I have been getting sugared since 2017 by many people and they all have done a great job, but this was probs the best post wax skin I've ever had. That glove should be a staple !

    Great sugaring experience, worth it and great waxer. Would go again! Light airy environment,…read morewelcoming and relaxing

    I had a great experience Rachel was fabulous- I have long hair an she really made great suggestions…read morefor keep my hair conditioned. Highly recommend

    I had my hair done by a stylist named Veronica. I found her on IG under the name BlondeByVeronica…read more I left 2 stars for Salty Roots pretty décor otherwise zero stars for Blonde by Veronica's ridiculous prices! My first communication with Veronica was attempting to make an appointment. She was booked into next month but some how managed to get me in that week without going on a cancellation list. I thought I was very lucky to get in right away. My appointment was at 1:30 but I was pushed back three times. By the time I sat in her chair it was 3:30 (2 hours later). First red Flag! I was surprised to meet such a young girl who referred to herself as a hair color expert. I sat in her chair. She complimented my Louis Vuitton bag and we briefly discussed partial highlights with olaplex, a toner, blow out and her suggested add on's. I was prepared to pay 250. for her "expertise". So, when she wrote the price break down on the back of the consent form I was SHOCKED! She wrote a small breakdown totaled at 395.00-450.00 (See pic). Second red flag! I immediately let her know that was not going to work for me. I was prepared to pay 250. tops! She agreed and cut out the add on's. We agreed on partial highlights, toner, trim and blow dry. She started the process at 3:38pm. I know the exact time because I texted my friend while she was mixing the bleach to tell him about her price gouging. We joked that we should quit our jobs and become hair dressers . Veronica and I had good conversation. She asked what I did for a living and we discussed many fun topics. She seemed like a sweet young girl. I felt very relaxed and excited to see the results of my hair. She placed foils on the crown of my head (not the back or sides, just on the top with a few on the front of my hairline. After sitting under heat for some time, we went to the bowl to rinse out the bleach. While she was washing and toning my hair she asked me what kind of cut I wanted. I said, just a trim, nothing fancy. She left me at the bowl for another 10 mins or so then came back Here's where things go left.... When she returned to do the final rinse her energy had clearly changed! She seemed anxious and in a bug hurry. She asked me if I wanted a blow out OR trim? I asked her to repeat herself a few times because I was not understanding. I was truly concerned and figured maybe something happened where she had to leave in a hurry. This wasn't the case as she rudely made it clear she had spent too much time on my hair (2 hours and 20 mins) and her time is money! So, she could only trim OR blow dry but not both! Another red flag! I asked her why she didn't tell me that during the consultation? She had no reply but kept saying she didn't charge me enough money! Since when is 100. per hour not a good enough wage? Something very suspicious going on here. ok now I'm pissed. We started bickering at the bowl! I reminded her I was her last appointment and she pushed back my time 2 hours later! Being in the service industry for the last 30 years I let her know real quick that I was not going to be treated disrespectfully and that she was being very unprofessional! After spending less than 3 hours in this salon, I left angered with wet hair! As I was leaving, she sarcastically said "good luck!" Here is the bottom line, This girl wants to charge Hollywood prices in St Pete. In hindsight, it's evident she is only on the hunt for clients to pay her exorbitant prices! Her money grubbing, price gouging is pitiful and desperate! I do NOT recommend Veronica!

I usually go to European Wax Center, but this is so much closer to my home so I had to try it. I was nervous to try a new place (we've all heard waxing horror stories), but I loved it! It smells amazing the moment you walk it. Ana is a one woman show, both checking you in and taking you to the waxing room, but honestly if there is only one client at a time, that's very efficient. Ana is super sweet and bubbly and made my whole experience comfortable. It was like talking with a friend! She kept checking to ensure he temperature of the wax was OK and she was very thorough, taking the time to ensure she got everything. No sneaky random hairs, as she'd pluck any she missed. She also was very gentle, which at first made me worry she wasn't getting all of the hairs, but she somehow did while keeping pain at a minimum. I'll definitely be back!!
