Called and made a very last minute appointment with Mary Jo for pedicures for two. She is such a sweetheart! Pleasant from start to finish. Her establishment may be a little hard to find. Just look for it in the same building as the Swiss Haven restaurant (where they serve fondue!). She is on the third floor. If Mary Jo is running a few minutes behind, make sure you grab a glass of vino from Alfonso downstairs. Don't worry, it's cool as long as you bring back the glass. What to expect when receiving a pedicure from Mary Jo: 1. Foot soak in a metal tub. (you will not find the big pedicure chairs with jets here) 2. A sugar scrub. Several scents to choose from. 3. Paraffin wax foot dip. HEAVEN! 4. A thorough application of polish. 5. Several minutes under the dryer. Gotta make sure they are super dry to put back on socks and boots! My toes looked great and I loved the color! I read a few other reviews that said there wasn't a good variety of nail polishes to choose from. I found quite the opposite! I had a hard time choosing. Plenty of reds, neutrals and even yellows! Forgot to mention she did my pedicure and my friend's simultaneously. Handled very well I might add! The price is very 'ski resort' driven. You're going to pay twice what you would normally at 'home'. Sigh. I will say I felt like the paraffin dip made up some of that cost though and it was soooo needed since I was all dry from lack of humidity. read more

Betsy is awesome and gives a truly phenomenal and relaxing pedicure experience, which included paraffin wax and hot oil. She is also just a very funny, interesting person and great for us to talk to. She also saw that my nails were chipped so removed that polish free of charge. Go here!!! You won't regret it read more

Finally back in Breck for the season and RAN to get my toes back to Betsy. Chicago is home for me but I have yet to find any one who comes any where close to Betsy's professional pedicures and manicures. read more

What a wonderful find! Mary Jo gladly made an appointment for my daughter-in-love and my self for mani's and pedi's today. She is on the third floor of the Columbine Square building, sharing the floor with a salon. Her salon is small but comfortable with a great view of the mountains. She does not use pedicure chairs, rather massage chairs and cute old fashioned bowls with pebbles in the foot bath. Although she is the sole person, she easily accommodated both of us side-by-side. Surprise! She includes a paraffin dip for all mani's and pedi's which left us soft and supple! Her prices are resort high but well worth it. Call first for an appointment and make time for this lovely salon! read more

Betsy is amazing. Her salon is clean, gorgeous, and has the best mountain views. My boyfriend and I spent our anniversary in Breckenridge and made a last minute decision to get a mani/pedi. We called Betsy in the morning and she was able to get us in for an appointment only 3 hours later. She spent her time on both of us and we left feeling completely pampered! Her color selection is incredible as is her attention to detail. Thank you for making our anniversary so wonderful! read more

I had a lovely afternoon being pampered by Betsy. She has a small salon, and gives focused, one-on-one service. It is a cheerful, sunny space and very relaxing. I did not feel like Betsy was looking at the clock. Instead, she wanted to be sure I was happy and my feet well cared for, and really spent the time to do it right. I especially loved the warm wax on my heals. If you are looking for an opportunity to decompress and get a nice pedicure as well, I highly recommend you reach out to Betsy! read more

It looks like this is the first review for Mary Jo.... I'm not surprised. She runs a small one woman show. She has a small space on the top floor of the Columbine building on Main St. Her office has AWESOME views of the mountains while you get your manicure. I was from out of town and she said that is where the majority of her business comes from. I called same day and was able to walk in, but she said she was full the whole day, so I would call ahead if you could. Manicure was $35 dollars. What it included: Hand Soak Hand Scrub Nail Shaping Cuticle Removal (she scraped mine back, I wish she has asked about removing my cuticles with clippers because they were a bit dry, but all in all they ended up looking good). Paraffin soak Short lotion massage buff polish We chatted a bit, but were also quiet..... so it was relaxing and after my polish she had me sit under the dryer twice and let me know that my nails were "dry to the touch, but be careful about banging them into things" -- it was nice to not be rushed out of the space with wet nails! All in all I would visit again. Now that I know what to expect I could request this or that.... Pedicures are $65 but I didn't get one...... A bit pricey, but I was on vacation and she has all the new colors and she does Shellac gel nails! read more

If I could give this lady a zero star review I would. I literally received the worst shellac manicure I've ever had. First, the way she did her manicures were completely backwards. She tried pushing back my cuticles after the polish was already on and she didn't even clip the sides of my nails or cuticles when I asked her too. In the beginning, I asked for French and she didn't even know how to shape the white tip. The white was chunky and didn't even cover my tip. And to top it off she wanted to charge for a double coat when her product was the reason why it wouldn't cover my tip! After about 30 minutes of her poorly trying to accomplish a French manicure I had to ask her to remove it and just do a regular polish. Overall anyone coming to Breckinridge wanting to get their nails done I would definitely steer away from here. Go somewhere else where they know what they're doing! Look at the photo I've added to show her awful service. read more

Love and Lacquers - ZERO attention to detail. All of my cuticles and sides were not clipped and left jagged and rough. - Nail Salons Near Me - Breckenridge, Colorado

Amazing!!!! Mary Jo knows her stuff! She made the experience very relaxing and enjoyable. Wax dip with the manicure and pedicure were awesome!! High recommend. She is on the top floor of the columbine square building. read more

Love and Lacquers - Great job by Mary Jo! Love this color :) - Nail Salons Near Me - Breckenridge, Colorado

A treat for a girl's weekend! Mary Jo has a cozy little shop on Main Street and was so friendly, chatting with both of us and tending to both of us. It was expensive (35 mani/65 pedi), but it is a resort town, so that is to be expected. She did a great job with the mani/pedi's (even my manicure is holding up a few days later!). I should have mentioned to her prior to starting that I don't like my tooties clipped all the way down. She is used to caring for athletes who want them to the quick, but it was a bit short and my toes were just a little sore afterward. Not a major deal, but thought I'd mention in case others feel the same. Overall, a very relaxing experience! We will go back:) read more

Excellent mani and pedi by Mary Jo! Thorough, relaxing, and my hands and feet look and feel great! For more detail, see Mara K's review - spot on. read more

Betsy was amazing! Such a fresh breathe of air and full of positive energy. My nails and toes look gorgeous! I highly recommend Love and Laquers!!! read more

I love Mary Jo. She does a wonderful job in her cozy little toe salon. :) Nice massage chairs with a wonderful view. She can be chatty if you want or quiet when you want to de-stress and stare out her windows. Great selection of colors. And my last manicure was a gel, which is two weeks old and still looks like it was done today. read more

Absolutely amazing pedicure! My feet feel like absolute heaven. Betsy has a large variety of great colors to choose from and made my toes look as good as they feel. The paraffin wax was to die for!! After a couple days of skiing my feet were in much need of relaxation and Love & Lacquers was the place to do it. Not to mention Betsy is one of the sweetest and funniest people I've met! Will definitely come back here anytime I'm in Colorado. read more

Love MaryJo! She is a true professional and loves what she does. Her place is adorable. My daughter loved her experience! read more

Love and Lacquers - Maryjo is great with kids!! - Nail Salons Near Me - Breckenridge, Colorado

Betsy was amazing! We were in town for Christmas vacation and she was able to get up in within a days request. My sister and I both got pedicures. They last approximately an hour and were so worth it. It was so relaxing!! My sister recently had ingrown toenails removed and was nervous. Betsy saw how her toenails were growing in and put some Gel over them to help keep them from getting caught. She was so nice! Overall it was a great experience and would love to go back next time we are in town. read more

I want to support small businesses, but I won't be back. "Manicure" isn't right; "hurriedly slap on some polish" more accurately describes the service. I typically get a gel manicure every two weeks in Denver for under $40. My regular salon gently files my nails short, trims cuticles and dry skin, and meticulously applies the polish. My experience here was the opposite. Mary Jo filed my nails so roughly that it hurt. When I jumped, she said, "well, you wanted them short." Short yes, but pain free. She didn't trim any cuticles or dry skin, which is at least half the point of a manicure. Then she applied the polish all over the cuticles and not even to the corners of my nails. It looked like a child painted my nails. Afterwards, I even asked to use the clippers myself to trim some hangnails. Double the price and half the service. No thanks. read more

Betsy is the new owner of this nail salon and she was absolutely amazing. I came in here for a shellac manicure after a week of skiing because my hands really needed it. Betsy started on time and really took care of my nails and did everything I wanted. We talked about everything from nail colors (obviously) and weddings and puppies, to hurricanes and alligators lol. Definitely recommend, next time I visit Breck I'll be stopping in! read more

Mary Jo is great. Went here for a pedicure before a wedding and was very happy with her services. It was a little higher than some other places but you get so many treatments included in the price : sugar scrub, hot wax, callous removal, and cucumber heel cream, etc. Mary Jo was thoughtful and her environment was organized and relaxing. Will definitely come back when in town. read more

Mary Jo was a wonderful! Definitely made my outfit for my date night look awesome! Will be coming back in a couple weeks! Thanks again Mary Jo! Sincerely, Destiny F. read more

The absolute best pedicure I have ever had. I have challenging toes and usually get a pedicure every 4 weeks. I did not make it in before our ski trip and after 2 days of skiing with toes that should have had a pedicure weeks ago, I was desperate. Snug ski boots and overgrown toenails are not a great combination. I did not have high hopes for a last minute pedicure in a resort town but L&L had great reviews and I was happy to get in on my rest day before heading out skiing again. Betsy is not only a fantastic nail technician she is a delightful person. I feel like I made a new friend. The mom from the mom daughter duo that came in after me said - I texted my husband and said we are just going to spend the afternoon here. Betsy said she loves running her business and it is obvious. Honestly the most enjoyable pedicure experience I have ever had. My toes feel great and ready to take on the mountain again. Go get a manicure or pedicure even if you don't really need one! read more

Mary Jo runs a great operation. She is a one gal business, and provides great customer service. I booked a pedicure, which was $65. I admit it was kinda pricey, but the care she puts into her work is excellent. read more

Not the best manicure I've had especially for the price. There was no attention to detail which was odd given Mary Jo's extensive experience in this line of work. I'm disappointed. read more

My wife and I were lucky enough to get a walk-in appointment and we were certainly impressed! Mary Jo is one-woman wonder who managed both of our pedicures at the same time without either of us feeling neglected. I would strongly recommend stopping by after a hard week (or day) on the slopes! read more

Great experience! I have had lots of mains and pedis in Arizona from all kinds of salons but Betsy knocked it out of the park. High class and very thorough in her services. read more

What a wonderful experience! I had a last minute booking with Mary Jo (she got me in within 15 min). Her shellac manicure is awesome! Includes exfoliation and parafin. Yes, it's more expensive than an Asian salon, but it's a completely different service. I will stop by every time I'm in Summit County. read more

Mary Jo was an absolute delight! I was worried I wouldn't be able to get in anywhere before my nuptials... but I called her first thing in the morning and was greeted by a cheerful voice that said she could get me in that day YAY! She had a great selection of colors and I already started picking out the color for my next trip to see her. I loved the quaintness of her space and the soak basins...and oh wow...the parafin!! read more

I called and set up an appointment for the next am. She was very friendly. The place is a little difficult to find. It's on the third floor and in the back of the building. It's really small and only one lady does the mani and pedis so this would not be good for a group. Mary Joe is very nice and it was a pleasant experience. 65$ for a pedi is a little pricy but my overall experience was very positive! read more

Called last minute for two pedicures and Mary Jo answered right away and got us scheduled in fast! She did a great job and was a super sweet!!! Would recommend her and will go back!!! read more

Mary Jo returned my call immediately after I called to inquire about an appt. She is swift, courteous, and prompt. Great mani with an exfoliation treatment and a parafin dip. She also took the time to give me instructions on a home exfoliation treatment that I could do called "the poor mans mani". I really enjoyed my time there and my hands/fingernails look great! read more

Hands down best mani pedi experience ever! Mary Jo is super sweet! Location couldn't be better. Enjoy the shops at downtown Breck and then enter into this oasis. Phenomenal Day! read more

You won't find a better view while getting a pedi or mani. I am glad my hometown place was busy because thanks to fellow yelpers, I found Mary Jo. She wasn't open so I called her. She was very accommodating and came to save my toes! Very relaxing - LOVED the foot wax and the scrub. Walk-ins (or call-ins) are welcome. Next time I am in Breck, she'll be my 1st call. read more

Awesome experience meeting Mary Jo, not to mention loving my mani! The place to go when you have dry winter hands!

Mary Jo was very nice. Warm and welcoming to us even though we made somewhat of a last-minute appointment. Like others, though, I'd have to say that $65 was super pricey for this place. It's not a luxurious spa or anything and we weren't offered wine... I'm not sure why it's so expensive. Also, there was some paint on my toes (not my toe nails). I'd totally recommend going here for a chill experience and to support local. Just know what you're expectations are first. read more

Mrs Mary Jo was very accommodating. I was a walk-in one early morning and she was able to take me in. Her room is quaint. She works by herself. She also has a beautiful view of the mountains. I love the paraffin wax treatment included in the manicure. Price was standard for a manicure - $35. read more

My daughter and I had a great time at Mary Jo's quaint little mountain view salon for mani & pedi's. She's professional and very personable! The paraffin treatment left us soft as ever so we'll be back during our next visit! read more

Betsy is such a great and down to earth person! My friend and I really enjoyed chatting with her during our pedicures. Love the colors she helped pick for us. Added a very nice few hours to our holiday in Breck. read more

A special treat for my feet! Mary Jo was absolutely pleasant & professional! She gave me the very best pedicure I've ever had! I highly recommend her! Thank you Mary Jo!! read more

Mary Jo was very nice & accommodating! She was willing to stay late on a Saturday afternoon so that. My girl friends and I(5 in total) were all able to get a manicure or pedicure. We called earlier in the morning & were happy when she invited us to bring some wine and enjoy the pampering. While it is only her in the salon, she is sweet & did a wonderful job! read more
