Had a great experience here! I walked in without an appointment and didn't have to wait too long. The salon was nice and clean. Don did my gel pedicure and was super kind and detail-oriented, making sure I liked the shape and French tips throughout the appointment. Definitely will be back! read more

I've been coming to Leo Nail Spa for a while, and the dad has always been really nice and provided great service. Unfortunately, the last few times I've gone, the customer service has really gone downhill. I even reached out to them on Instagram after my last visit to explain what happened because I genuinely wanted to give them the opportunity to address it, and they apologized. Today I called to make an appointment for a gel builder manicure and pedicure. I mentioned my previous experience and simply asked if they could make sure I received good service this time so I could feel comfortable coming back. I was told that the same girl was the only person who could do gel builder and, 'If you don't like it, maybe we're not the nail spa for you.' When I asked if it was okay for a customer to be given attitude and made to feel uncomfortable, he laughed and basically told me they couldn't help me. That response was extremely disappointing, especially after I had already tried to address the issue privately and respectfully. The nails themselves may come out good, but good work doesn't make up for poor customer service or making paying customers feel unwelcome. If you're okay with possibly getting good nails but dealing with bad service, that's your choice. Personally, I won't be returning. read more

Today my sister and I visited this nail shop for the first time. Dom and Sophia were exceptionally kind in helping us as well as the rest of the team. They offered us cold water, which is super nice since it's summer right now. I would definitely come if you have the chance, the pricing and the artwork they do is amazing. 10/10 nail spot and people. I'll be returning for sure! read more

Trust me this is the place for acrylic nails! They are skilled, reasonably priced, no lifting, no cuts, no peeling gel color or crooked, uneven nails. I've been coming here for a long while now and have had a few different techs.. Everyone here are skilled to do beautiful nails so any day I go in is non issue- which is a relief. They are family ran so don't worry about loving a tech and all of a sudden your tech is on "vacation" and never comes back. If you bring in a design picture or inspiration they will nail it. I don't do much designs but I see them done on others and posted on their IG daily. Pedi- They are clean, thorough, use a new scrubber, file and sealed packet of tools each time. The aunties do a good job and take their time. read more

Don't come to this place. I came in asking for the price of a design I wanted, the design was over my budget, so I started looking for other options that I could afford. I immediately saw that the guy servicing me, got bothered when I mentioned I had a budget... As he was doing my nails, he was ignoring my small requests and his body language/tone was making me feel uncomfortable, as if he didn't want to do my nails since I wasn't going to pay for something expensive.. I'm not usually one to speak up, but I wasn't going to continue a service in which I wasn't getting taken care of properly nor kindly. So, I asked the guy to remove the work he had just started, and just to charge me for a removal, which he did, yet he left my nails in very poor condition. When I confronted him about being disappointed with his attitude, he kept insinuating that I had him take off the work he had done, because I wouldn't be able to afford it, which is super demeaning. I had full intentions of paying for my service. I really don't think I should've been treated differently simply because I asked for a different design that I was able to afford. Everyone deserves to be treated with equal respect and kindness. Do better. read more

Walked in and asked for a full set I was told 25 min wait . Ended up being 45 mins . I was told to go to the second to last stall . I had a seat there and there was no one there to do my nails . I asked the owner who had no one in his seat. I asked him who was going to be doing my nails he said oh she's coming right now she's doing a wax . I got fed up and left . I've been coming to this salon for a little over 8 months. read more

I went in for the second time and was highly disappointed with the treatment I received from Henry. The first time I went in for a full set, less than a week later a few of my nails lifted but he was willing to fix up so I decided to go back. My second visit for fills was not so pleasant. I believe Henry got bothered when I KINDLY asked him to fix one nail. After that I showed him a photo of how I would like my nails but when I asked him for help to pick the colors to match he simply refused so I picked myself. I then asked him to help me pick a design that would match to add to one nail, he literally IGNORED me! Once done I course went to pay AND leave a tip and guess what, not a single thank you or bye from Henry! My point here is, if you can't handle constructive criticism from women, maybe a field filled with women customers isn't for you! And to the owner who is going to likely respond that he "checked the cameras" I would like to check them with you! read more

If you're tired of paying a small fortune for nails that don't even live up to the hype, this place is a breath of fresh air. Henry is my go-to, and he absolutely kills it every time with whatever wild set I throw at him. The prices are insanely affordable, even when I go full-on extra with intricate designs. The salon is always clean, and I've never had to wait forever like I do at other places where appointments mean nothing. With all these IG nail techs charging $150 for a basic set and then hitting you with random policies, this spot is everything you need--stylish, affordable, and zero nonsense. read more

Came here for gel x and a pedicure before my weekend at a music festival. Henry did my nails and I'm not sure the name of the lady that did my pedicure. I asked for a basic pedicure with callus removal. The lady was filing the side of my big toe And raked the side of my foot with the file. I said ouch and pointed to the redness she caused on my foot. A following day I realized that she had basically filed the skin off my foot. I reached out to the salon And was basically told that she stayed away from my cut on my foot after I pointed it out to her. I mentioned that I didn't have a cut when I walked in. I asked multiple times for the name of the owner and did not get it. Bad business practice! The pain she inflicted on my cost me $34. And not even a sorry or anything. ZERO STARS! You would be better off going to sky nails across the street. At least the have a business ethic. read more

I was really upset with this place. This place sucks. My appointment was at 12 PM. I didn't leave until 3:30 PM. According to Henry, I think his name is their system through Instagram for booking does not work. He blamed it on me having to remove my nails, which was the reason it took so long but removing nails only takes at almost 10 minutes. And he said the design I wanted was going to be an hour. And when he got to my design, it took him less than 20 minutes because it was so easy. This place sucks I would not recommend it. You'll waste your time here. you will wait forever. * Adding to message I guess Henry wanted to reach out to me personally . So I can mention he took 10% off. Must I mention Henry used every excuse as to why it took four hours. Not once was he apologetic or understood he blamed me for the system not working and how other people had tough designs. . But still got out before me and my design only took 15 minutes. After spending three hours there and complained about the wait he told me I can put topcoat on and leave with no design.... Very unprofessional to reach out to someone personally because they wanted to share their terrible experience with everybody else. read more

Quality of the work is like anywhere else you might go. The place is clean. The reason for the 3 stars is their terrible system of booking and keeping appointments. I get that it's hard all over and people are desperate for business, even walk ins, but don't punish clientele that takes the time to make an appointment. My appointment was for 12:15. When I arrived at 12:12, he had someone in the chair and was barely filing with the drill...finally he had someone else start my fill at 12:30! Next time this happens I will walk out and go somewhere else where they respect their customers time. read more

Gave this place another try, first time back was ok ended up returning a week later for a new gel pedi and manicure dip. Not only did they hurt me, my left hand two fingers are cut and my left toe still sore from older gentleman digging in i had no idea what he was doing I don't think he did either and not even a week later my nails are falling apart! Smh read more

Don't do gel nails with HENRY! I paid 70.00 one flipped off same day I went back he put back on. The next day it fell off again with another 4 nails!! I called him and took pictures to tell him they are flipping off. I could not go the next day again my mother passed. I made an appt with him and he knew they came off. I usually had they done with his BRO but every time I make an appointment with him he takes someone else because he knows them. I told him why should I pay if they fell of and I called and took pictures. Henry had the nerve to say a 5.00 discount. I usually spend 50.00 on pedicures. I have NEVER had this problem he used some little light from the dollar store to set the gel which was to thin apparently. They have lost a customer. read more

Discriminatory and unwelcoming to LGBTQIA+ community. Do not give your business to them. I was referred to this salon by a family member who regularly gets her nails done here. I was told to ask for Henry. When I called to confirm, Henry answered and said he will not do men's nails. You would think that if Henry was so concerned about conforming to societal gender norms he would've chosen a different profession. Instead, he chooses the masculine and machismo job of painting pink glitter and cute shapes on women's hands. I urge you all (male, female, or gender non-conforming) to avoid this place altogether. 0 stars. read more

Two stars because my pedicure was okay - albeit rushed because the lady had another appointment Bad manicure experience - one of my other nails was nicked while she was painting on my design but she didn't go over to fix it.

SHAME ON YOU CHANEL!!! I have been going to Chanel every two weeks since she opened the shop... overtime her work got sloppy and she was always irritated. I noticed she was constantly talking to her coworkers in their language every time I came in, so I decided to record her... I am actually shocked, not only was she making rude comments about myself but she and her coworkers were also commenting on my 8 year old daughter!!! Mind you I have a been a faithful customer for years!! SHAME ON CHANEL!! This is why she only has two employees and her shop is always empty, how dare you talk about a child!! read more

I'm giving 5 stars to Jay. I have been to this salon about a handful of times only because I'm trying to find a place closer to where I live and I'm rather picky. The first two times I only got pedicures. Gel and callus remover. They were not to my satisfaction but they did the job and at the very least didn't rush. This last time I got a pedi and full set. I walked out of there with the mindset that I was never going to go back even though for the first time, my pedicure was the best I have EVER had, my nails were horrendous. Normally, I bite my tongue, pay and just never return. This time. For the pretty penny I paid, I figured- I should speak up. I addressed my concerns with Jay and he was more than willing to fix and makeup for this experience. He advised me to return the following day and he'll fix it all. I was still hesitant but I left that evening feeling somewhat of a relief. The next day on my way home from work I gave the salon a call so Jay had a heads up I was on my way. I walked in not knowing what to expect with their attitudes and my nails. But, I'm glad I took a chance with Jay. I see his work and I see Henry's and they are by far the best. I absolutely love my nails and I've already requested another appointment that I'm waiting on confirmation for. read more

I gave a one star because Jasmine who is a nail tech was really nice. I went in for a pedicure and fill. Upon getting my pedicure I noticed a red mark on my right big toe. When I asked the lady whom was doing my pedicure if I was bleeding she looked at me puzzled and continued the pedicure. I then asked again in which a nail tech whose station is towards the back got up and looked at my toe. She proceeded to wipe it with the towel and said everything was fine. Once my pedicure was complete, I looked at my toe and notice that I was cut on the side of my toe. I also noticed that my toe nail was slated. The same nail tech who sits in the back came, looked at my toe nail and noticed it was slated. She proceeded to grab a nail clipper to fix it. Before I could stop her and tell her the lady who did my pedicure was cleaning soiled tools and putting them in the container she grabbed the nail clipper from she cut my toe nail which caused me to bleed. It was so painful and bleed a decent amount. I understand things happened however it's unacceptable to not only cut someone but to cause potential infection. The entire staff was not bothered by it and the nail tech kept saying the tool was clean. I had to explain to her and show her that the box she grabbed the nail clipper from had several tools in it which soiled tools was placed in it. Staff seemed unbothered, manager didn't even come talk to me. As a professional business I would assume someone would have at least come talk to me. If you are thinking about trying this place out I would avoid it at all cost. Pic is after it was cleaned. You can see redness. read more

Went in and asked for what I thought was a very basic design, flowers and chrome/glitter polish. The nail tech seemed new and the flowers were not coming out good. Once I asked him to remove them he became very rude and snippy with me. He became super angry and was giving me attitude saying "so what do you want now?" I asked for stars instead and he used nail stickers. After so many top coat layers, my nails looked clumpy and messy. I would not recommend this place at all. I was over him being rude so I paid and went straight to the nail salon down the street to redo my nails. Was a complete waste of money and time. read more

Long story short: I was taken here by a friend to get my nails done for my wedding day. I had to get them re-done three times and still left unsatisfied. Details: My friend, who comes here all the time, took me here to get my nails done for my wedding day. I asked for matte burgundy coffin-shaped nails with a silver glitter accent on both ring fingers. They kept asking why I wanted matte, and that I should get something shiny. I said no thanks, that's what I wanted. They mentioned it at least five or six times and even my friend was saying that I just wanted matte. Fast forward to the manicure. Painful. I would flinch and pull back my hand it hurt so bad and she would just laugh and do it again. She cut my finger and said that's what I get for moving. Then paint. I wanted a dark burgundy to match my bridesmaids dresses. She painted one coat and it looked like bright red. I asked before she painted all of them if she had anything more burgundy colored. She said no, and that she knows what she's doing, and kept painting. My friend said no, she wants something more like burgundy, not this red. She says no again. She finally gets up and gets pretty much the same color and says it's all she has. She continues to paint with the original red. She puts a second coat and it begins to look more like the bottle and she shows me my own fingers and says that she was right. Then the matte. She says again that I should get something shiny. I say no again, that I wanted matte. She painted two thick layers of matte and tells me I'm done. I go to the hand dryer and notice white specks all over my nails. We asked her to fix it. She tries to remove polish in little dots, leaving thick craters in my nails. Then she just puts a different top coat than the first time over top. Some she removed in dots, some she just painted over completely. She even painted over nails that didn't need any fixing, making an even thicker coat of polish. I was sent back to the hand dryer. The nails were super thick and lumpy and looked like they'd never dry. We complained to the manager about my nails and my friend's nails, because they were just as bad, if not worse. She seemed understanding, but had the same girl fix them. I get sent back to her station and she said why didn't I say anything when I was over there... I did! I asked her to do less coats this time. She removes all the polish this time, and re-paints them. She did three coats of polish and three more of a thick shiny looking "matte" top coat. We also had my friend's girl fix the glitter nails on both of us. We were in there for about five hours and when I got to my car, a nail smudged from being too thick and unable to dry. Reference photo and what I left with attached. Never again! read more
