Very dissatisfied with the service I received on today. I asked for a spa pedicure and gel nail polish. They don't even have the tools to get the dead skin off of your feet. They use a regular pumice stone. This was definitely something I could have done in the shower at home. DO NOT COME HERE. They are not thorough and very misleading. I was not satisfied, I can't say that enough read more

This is my 4th visit, it's always hard to find someone who does dipping well, I have a long nail bed and gel seems to always break my nails. I decided to test out this nail salon by first getting my feet done. Returned a second time and the same, just a pedi. Both visits my feet were done by Ivy. I returned for a third visit for a pedi, mani, and dip. I wasn't treated by Ivy. I won't say the nail tech that did my nails was inexperienced but I didn't care for her technique. Upon leaving the shop my nails were chipping (dip doesn't chip) and my toe nail polish was coming off. I returned today to have my nails redone... and this is the best dip work I've seen. I will return, but only if Ivy is at work! read more

My mother just went in.. she's been going for years before covid. She asked for dip nails, and the employee asked her if she was allergic to acrylic?.. my mom says no. The employee tells her "Dip is for people who are allergic to acrylic"... no it is not... i'm assuming she didnt wanna do dip nail application... my mother knew better and just looked at her and left. Disappointing first experience back there after covid restrictions. That information is certainly not true. read more

I have gotten lucky the last few times coming in. Now that I have a full time grown up job in an office, I have started regularly getting manicures now. Not acrylics, just buff, shape and polish. For the last two months or so, I have been coming every 2-3 weeks to get a manicure. Every time, I have been able to be helped when walking in, I am probably cursing myself by mentioning it, but even a couple of years ago, I was able to walk in and be helped quickly. I have had a different nail technician each time, but that's ok. The first few times, I just got a regular polish, but the last two times I have gotten a gel manicure. Let me tell you, this is the way to go. For once after a few days, my nails are not chipped and peeling and after a week, the polish not almost all gone. There is a small strip of parking in front, and more spaces on the sides. Each time I have come in, I have been given a bottle of water, which is a nice touch. The shop is really neat, clean and well organized! I am impressed and think that I have found "MY" spot. I am sure that I have the possibility of being "unlucky" and they will be busy when I come in without an appointment in the future. read more

Called and asked if they could accept a mani pedi walk in today and was told they don't accept appointments and to come in. I asked for an approximate wait time and was told they can't provide one. I waited for the rain the clear and walked over to the nail salon about an hour later at 2 PM on a Saturday. The door was locked and I knocked as instructed by the sign by the door. The employee looked at me for a minute before begrudgingly walking over to open the door and telling me that they were closed for the day. There were only opening hours on the door and they removed the closing hours so I guess they close whenever they feel like it? Would have been nice for the person who I spoke with over the phone to tell me that they were closing soon. read more

When I moved away from the Lower Garden District, I was so sad to leave my favorite nail place behind. But that has all changed since I found Lavish. I was able to make an appointment for exactly the time I needed. They have a huge selection of polish colors, and for a small up-charge, can do all kinds of glitter, nail art and gradient effects. They will also color match between the gel and regular polish if you want your nails and toes to match. My fingernails were a mess, and now they are absolute perfection. You can't see any brush strokes, the edges are neat and even, and the color is beautiful. Their massage chairs might be the best I've ever sat in and I felt so relaxed after my 30 minute pedicure. The salon is tucked away by Papa John's, and it is definitely a hidden gem. I highly recommend making a visit to Lavish. read more

I was very excited to go due to all the good reviews and my friends speaking highly of it. Only to get there and the door is lock and nobody to let us in. Called the number to see if they were open (even though they were supposed to be open according to the hours on the door) and they said they closed early "for the lunar new year" and wouldn't take us........... Unprofessional read more

This was my first time visiting this nail salon post the Corvid-19 pandemic and I'm a new client. I was skeptical about going because some people seem to be inconsiderate of others when in public places. Once arriving my nerves were put at ease. The rules/guidelines are strictly enforced to ensure the safety of everyone. Not to mention I very pleased with service that I received. read more

This nail shop just recently opened and I'm a fan for a couple reasons. 1. Locations. It's located at a point that it is easy to get to for Gentilly, Lakeview and New Orleans East folks, who don't always get the businesses. As someone who lives in New Orleans East this location is pretty quick and easy to get to right off of Robert E. Lee, conveniently next to my favorite sushi place Yummy Sushi and Hibachi. 2. Quick Service. The staff tends to move efficiently and get you out rather quickly, even when there is a line. The wait is never too long, even on a Saturday (Which is when I visited this location) 3. Atmosphere. It's a no-frills type of place, but it is clean and the workers are knowledgeable and friendly. 4. Options. This shop has a good selection of services. They do gel nails as well as dip gel nails, which is a plus in my book. Note: They have chrome nails!!! +$15. There is a good selection of nail polish, including OPI, which is important to me. Their prices are reasonable! I received a basic pedicure, which was wonderful and ample time for a massage, which is a plus in my book. They do have a Deluxe pedicure offering as well. Off street parking, so no issue. The only issue you may find is finding the location, but to keep it simple it's right behind the Papa John's Pizza. read more

I have been having the worst luck with chipping. Kinda ducked off shop in a suite by Paris ave and Robert E Lee. I didn't see anything lavish. Don't get your hopes up! Nobody offered me wine or anything, like my fave spot Vive. This should be the standard like LA. Came here because my nail polish chipped from this dumb place in the east. I really like the quick service and the pedicure bowls look like they have been cleaned ( unlike others in the east). They shall remain nameless. I would highly recommend lavish if you are looking for a sanitary with average customer service. read more

Checked out this new nail shop today because I'm a fan of supporting local businesses especially those that are in Gentilly. The shop had two nail technicians on hand, one of which I believe is the owner. She expressed that business had been slow in their initial three weeks and she hoped for an increase in clientele soon. Otherwise, she didn't think she'd be able to maintain the rent. I'd love to see the shop succeed, so I pass things that keep me coming back to the nail shop that I've been loyal to for three years. -Create an experience! If I'm forking over $50 plus tip for nail services, make me feel like I'm at a spa. Mute Muary paternity test results on the t.v. and play some nature music to help me relax. How about offering wine to further relaxation? Hint. Your Robert E. Lee competitor is serving wine and soft drinks. Their chairs are always full! -Expand your nail color selection! Whatever the seasonal hot color collection is...carry it. Let your Facebook followers know when the "Kiss Me Ruby" collection has arrived. That's exciting! -Fill your chairs during non peak hours. Senior citizen discounts for coming in before noon M-W? Have coffee for them and you'll WIN! -Hire personable staff. The gentleman who serviced me was nice enough, but after my third attempt to strike a conversation, I gave up and sat in silence. I'll be back soon to check you out again! read more

I went in on yesterday attempting to support this business since it is close to my home. I hadn't been to since before Covid. Upon entering, I was asked what service(s) I desired? Dip nails and a pedicure was my intention. Once at the table with the owner, she asked if I was allergic to acrylic? I was quite sadden by her next comment. She told me "dip" was for people allergic to "acrylic". When she saw the look of disbelief in my eyes as I also stated to her that DIP isn't just for people with an allergy to ACRYLIC, she said, "let me explain". No explanation was needed. I rely on correct information from masters in whatever profession they are in. If it's your opinion that one process will be better over another, please be transparent and speak it as so. Honesty is the best policy. It builds trust and relationships which in turn builds BUSINESS. read more

Very friendly and thorough job. Very pleased with outcome. Twenty minute wait when three ahead of the s. Great strong massage in chair.

I went to this salon on a Saturday morning. I was excited to find a nail salon in my area and had high hopes based on the reviews. I will NEVER go back. My nails chipped in record time. I had left over cuticle every where. My pedicure was even worse. Maybe I caught them on a bad day, but never again. read more

The ladies here are super friendly & the place is sparkly clean! I love the array of colors & though I only came for a pedicure, I noticed the lady next to me got a fabulous manicure while she had her pedi! I had the $35 spa pedicure & the minty cream she used on my legs felt really nice. All tingly & rich. I'm walking out with a smile on my face and pretty purple on my toes! read more

I love that this place is close to my house & don't be as busy as other nail salons. Every time I go it gets worst & worst. Anne is very rude the 1st time went she told me I need to do my hair. Then the next time she was sick with food poisoning & kept dry heaving at the desk while she do my nails. I told her I feel her pain because I suffer with diabetes & recently been sick a lot. She begin to ask me offensive questions I left & still tipped. Recently I went Saturday she had an attitude about doing my eyebrows & actually told me she don't like doing my eyebrows. Every experience with Anne which is most of the time she's there was bad. I will not be returning. read more

Been here quite often as it is a few mins from my house and next door to my hairdresser. I originally went the 1st week during the grand opening and I was impressed. Beautiful shop. Ample parking. Quick service. Great color selection. Reasonable. It doesn't smell like a nail shop. I've been happy each time leaving. They also wax and cater to kids and men. Love this place. The owner is so sweet....we share the same pediatrician for our kids. On one occasion, I brought my 1 year old daughter in for my gel mani/pedi and she was fussy. I always get compliment about how she doesn't cry when we go places ( this was not the case this day). I knew she would fall right asleep as she's done many times, but she would not nurse or go to sleep that day. The owner was patient and provided both my daughter and I with sanity solutions. This was really appreciated. On another occasion, I brought my 10 year old son with me. I showed the owner his nails bevause his cuticles grow over his nails. She provided me with a small bottle of oil and told me she would not charge me for it...just to get his nails healthy. This showed she really carrs about her customers. read more

Love the way they do my nails and they move quickly. Good service. Something I have not received from a nail salon in a long time . Also the have a wide spread of colors to select from . read more

I just moved from Houston and honestly I've tried one other nail salon. This nail salon is quiet, clean, and calming. My nails tech made me feel so comfortable. She was so welcoming and easy to talk to about anything. I was greeted when I walked in and she did my nails so perfectly!!! The colors are amazing, so much to chose from! It's also right by my house.. She took her time! She was entertaining conversation. Then she did my eyebrows, and OMG they look amazing. If your going to go here, ask for Fifi! I paid 25$ for a full set and 10$ for eyebrows. read more

Very clean, which is the most important factor for me with nail salons. Space is calm and well-kept. Great massage chairs and a wall of colors to choose from. Extensive menu of options and some nice (and pricier) all natural options. There's a delicious sushi place in the same shopping strip, which I've definitely enjoyed after. read more

Went once and had a great experience so wanted to return. I walked in at 3:30 on a Monday and was told they close early yet that wasn't indicated anywhere on their door or hours. Unprofessional and not the way to have customers keep coming back. After posting this review, I received messages from regular customers regarding an "emergency" the owner had experienced on this day. While that is their understanding, it is not what was messaged to me. I was told that she always closed early on Mondays and not that it was an abnormality. As a person who works with children regularly, I would have of course understood an emergency regarding a child but she simply stated she always closed early and was calm when I walked in. If I had known this, I would not have posted a negative review; however, that was not what was messaged. read more

I have to admit, I'm not a nail salon connoisseur. However, Lavish exceeded my expectations in every way. I did not make an appointment, but I probably will next time. The wait time was 15 minutes. I got the basic pedicure ($25). They had a fabulous color selection including gel. The nail tech did a great job. The environment was relaxing. The news was on the tv (definitely worth a star by itself). Finally, I really liked the space. It was a big, clean room. It didn't smell too much of chemicals. Everyone working had a great personality. I'll definitely be back! read more

My new one stop shop for my bi-monthly mani, pedi, and wax ritual! The shop is always clean, tools are individually wrapped & sanitized, parking is convenient, and the customer service is great! I could go on and on, but I'm hoping I could keep this spot my little secret! read more

Went here for a quick mani/pedi and the service was great! Very clean and organized, with friendly staff! They offer a variety of options for nail services and a variety of colors, the up charges are clearly listed so there's not many surprises for how much you'll pay. However, they do request that you tip in cash as it can not be added to your credit card charge. read more

Very unpleased. They did not know how to properly shape coffin nails. I asked for coffin and they basically gave me square, but STILL charged the $5 for asking for the coffin shape. Also, I asked for a design... and when I told the lady she was doing it incorrectly she said ok (you can tell she was annoyed) and redid it but it was very rushed and so was the rest of the polish. I had to go home, take it all off and redo it. will not be returning !!! City nails on Robert e lee is a better alternative and they serve complimentary wine along with other beverages read more
