I have been to this nail salon many times over the years. I would not recommend this place anymore. The quality has declined, and I have left disappointed many times in the past year. They usually try to rush me in and out as quick as possible, then they always try to upsell me. Whenever I ask for regular polish, they want me to do gel.. When I ask for gel, they try to talk me into dip. It's very frustrating that I have to "fight for myself" at the nail salon when I am asking for what I want. The past few times, my nails have came out with messy edges and bumpy texture instead of smooth. This time, I asked for a gel removal and regular polish. She rushed me to a chair and didn't let me pick a color from the wall. I showed her a picture of a color I wanted so she "found something similar". I had to tell her no to the first option as it wasn't even the same color. She then removed my gel, and didn't even have me rinse my hands or wipe off the dust from the drill before she started painting. From the time I walked in, she had me under the dryer with my nails drying in under 10 minutes. It feels like if you say no to them, they try to rush you out because they're not making as much money. I am pretty understanding and typically don't make a big deal of my nails, but it's frustrating paying money for these services when I'm disappointed over and over. read more

I have been trying to find a new nail salon since I moved to Punta Gorda over a year ago, and luckily I came across Lovely Nails last month. This was my second time there and definitely not my last. Christina was phenomenal, she is friendly, gentle and really pays attention to the details. My nails came out exactly how I wanted. The salon is super affordable for the quality of work. Christina made sure I was happy with everything before I left. This salon, and Christina, is officially my new go to for my every two week nail adventure. Highly recommend!! read more

I've been coming here for 6 years now. I see Diane and my nails are gorgeous every time. She takes such meticulous care of me. My nails stay on until they grow out so far I have to get them redone. There are some great nail techs here. Great massage chairs, great space, great people. read more

I moved to Punta Gorda in 2022 and have been going to lovely nails since I arrived. I was lucky enough to get Kayla as it was her turn. I will never use anyone else. read more

Absolutely horrible technician and customer service . I Met with one of the owners two weeks prior in visiting salons to find my new pedicure place. I decided to book appts for two of us . We Showed at our time and were rushed to our gel spa pedis by Linda and Ginny. Two entirely different experiences. My tech was horrific! She was aggressive, fast and not attentive. She kept putting the massage chair on even though I told her three times I did not want it on for low back reasons. She was demanding and kept twisting my feet sideways. She messed up the pedicure nail polish multiple times. She dropped the warmer on the nails twice. I was done with my "relaxing experience" thirty minutes before my friend getting the exact same service. Even worse, the receptionist kept coming over and whispering in the techs ear like they had some secret. Bottom Line I talked to Jenna the owner/manager who promises to fix it. I'll let you be the judge on choosing whether to frequent this salon. read more

Short wait, conscientious employees. I was pleased with my pedicure and the prices are good, too.

Had a pedicure by a gentleman. It was terrible. He only took 15 minutes on me. He did not push back my cuticles. Put polish on did not let dry for the top coat. Does not treat their customers well. Would not recommend this nail salon. read more

"Leo" wanted to argue with me that I had acrylic on one toe nail while giving me a pedicure. I told him I did not and he repeatedly insisted that I did. I have no need to lie about my nails and no need to justify, explain or defend my nails to anyone Thank goodness for the ladies who graciously stepped in to add some respect and good customer service. Please be careful of your choices in nail salons. read more

I got my nails done by Kayla she was so sweet and did an amazing job. They've stayed on very well especially after being hit so many times and they are beautiful. She had such a cozy vibe and took beautiful pictures of my nails. read more

Worst pedicure ever! My technician attempted to use the purple scrubber on my dry foot (it hadn't touched nor soaked yet); used cold towels on my legs; only used lotion/oil on one leg at end. I am not sure if she was not qualified to do pedicures or just isn't detail oriented but dang.... I will not be back. Sorry to say that as I get manicures and pedicures every 2-3 weeks and have done so for 20+ years. read more

Had a French mani n it was supposed to last 2 -3 weeks according to the nail tech. Well it only lasted ONE entire day. Don't be gong there again, sorry . read more

Update: I went back to lovely nails after going somewhere else for a while. I decided to go back because no one does nails like Diane and pedicures like Nina. We worked out our miscommunication and I am so happy to have nails by Diane again. read more

The service is variable depending on who provides it. Two weeks ago, I had a pedicure. My right big toe hurt for two days. (The tech was holding antiseptic to it when she was done but there was no blood.) This distracted me from the damage to my left big toe . It is two weeks later, and the toe has not recovered. read more

Lovely Nails - Hand painted details!! - Nail Salons Near Me - Punta Gorda, Florida

Well...I spent all day cleaning my garage and after a shower, decided I would pamper myself with a pedicure. I arrived a the Lovely Nails salon in Punta Gorda and waited a bit before I was seated in a chair. The chair was nice but the basin was empty. The chair ended up being the best part of the pedicure. Then male manager(?), accompanied by a woman from the back of the store, who was not dressed in a black smock like the other nail specialists, arrived at my chair. The manager spoke to her and walked way - I felt badly for her as she looked around and did not appear to know how to fill the basin (he walked back and helped), and then filled it too high so it splashed out of the basin (he came to turn it down and drained the basin a bit). Then she cut my toe nails slightly, sort of filed them, and rubbed everything she could reach into my dry legs, and rubbed a Luke warm stone on my legs placed a cool towel on them. All the specialists kept looking over, the gal who was doing my pedicure and walked away, and eventually a different specialist came over and filed and painted my toe nails, while the other gal looked on. I was there twice as long as a decent pedicure takes and it was a horrible experience. The manager knew it but still charged me...Lovely Nails is not a lovely place. read more

This was a fun treat with Wonderful outcomes! Mani pedis for us both! My nails were done by LEE, a gentleman did my daughters ! read more

I got a manicure with dip as recommended by my nail technician because it is supposed to last longer than gel and does not chip. After 2 days, two of my nails were cracked and by a week, another nail chipped off. I am on vacation so it's definitely not from heavy working with my hands. My nail tech asked me if I was visiting or if I lived in the area and I regret telling him that I was visiting. I think that is why I did not receive full quality service. Unfortunately I do not know the name of my nail tech. read more

Went in for a pedi and gel mani. I called the day of and had an appointment a few hours later when all the other salons in Punta Gorda were booked up. Great salon, clean and fast service. No one was waiting! Definitely will be back. read more

He rushed through the pedicure and it shows. When I showed the nail tech places he missed, he blamed me and said I broke the nail. He did not file the nails, clean the polish and nails look worse than when I went in! Very disappointed. read more

I don't know how they are still in business! My nail tech was SOOO rude!! I have read this on so many reviews. I decided to give them a try anyway. Big Mistake! That was the last time I will go there! read more

Was on vacation with my husband, visiting our besties. First vaca in 3 years together... Went with my bestie for a pedicure... "Anna" was not friendly, nor gentle on my toes, feet or legs...My friend and I picked the SAME matte Pinky color for our toe nails and for some reason ANNA did mine in spakley orange/red... I pointed this out to her and she pretened not to understand... read more

Called for a first time, same-day appointment for SNS dip and was scheduled a few hours later. Jenny assured me all techs were experienced, so not a problem. I arrived about 5 minutes early for a Sunday appointment, but did have to wait about 20 minutes or so before being seated with Tony. In the meantime, Jenny thanked me for coming in and waiting while apologizing for the delay. Tony also apologized and immediately went to work. He worked confidently and timely through the process. I appreciated the acknowledgment and apologies but hope it is not typical with appointments. Nevertheless, it was not a problem with my schedule this particular day; in fact, midway I asked if a basic pedicure could be added. They graciously accommodated as long as I was willing to wait another 15-20 min., which I did. Overall, I was pleased with both services and would return (though missed the final hand / forearm lotion massage received elsewhere). Prices competitive, masks required, plexiglass dividers, clean. read more

First and LAST time I will visit here. I went in on a Sunday afternoon, because they are one of the few places open on a Sunday. It was a little busy and I waited about 20 mins, no big deal. When the guy Stephen came over to fill my nails he suggested I try a dip. He peeled away part of my acrylic on my thumb and said not too worry that he would fix. It didn't and left me with concave nail bed. Also I wanted a French tip, as I usually get gel. The dip was uneven and not clean. When he was finished it looked like I still needed a Fill! Awful work. I think he wanted to do the Dip because it is faster than traditional acrylic fill and there were customers coming in and they were short handed that day. I told him I was unhappy and I didn't like it. He said "next time we do acrylic" there won't be a next time. $40 for an awful job and my nails need to be redone. I won't be back. read more

Went for a mani/pedi. Walked out after the mani (yes, I paid). Did not bother hanging out for pedi. My cuticles were left all scraggly and nails were cut and shaped uneven. I did not stay for them to apply polish, why bother. I made my way to NOIRE nail bar in PG - what a difference. read more

After trying several salons, my husband and I have found the one. We've been coming here for over a year and they never disappoint. It's our time to just relax and treatment is always top notch. Thank you Jenny and Jason!! We always look foward to this time!! read more

Fast nice and great massage. Prices are affordable!

They got me in as a walk-in, super nice people who seemed to care about their guests. They laughed and talked with me. Clean and took the time to put my actual Sandles on my feet and make sure the paint stayed on. Eyebrows too and super happy with their service and price. read more

T E R R I B L E... very few clients in there, you would think the singing chickie would at least do the bare essential... she didn't even use the tool to push back the cuticles or apply any of the lotion on the nail before dipping my feet literally in the water to soak for 1 min. I will not return or recommend read more

I have been to Lovely Nails many times but yesterday was the last. I made an appointment for a manicure at 11:00. At 11:20 I was seated at a station. At 11:25 no one had started on soaking my polish. I got up, told the guy I had an appointment at 11:00 and no one had even started on me. A gal working on another customer said "I'm almost done". I said I was going elsewhere and left. It's infuriating to make an appointment and have the salon take walk-ins and delay appointments. Luckily I found another salon in Punta Gorda with awesome customer service. read more

Caution to reader: I am a tomboy. I don't "do" pedicures and crap like that unless someone who thinks I'd like one buys one for me. I personally can't justify spending $65+ on my feet. That being said, my sweet stepmother wanted to take me for a pedi to celebrate my pregnancy so I was all in. Mine was OK, we got the $45 deluxe pedi treatment which consisted of, like, 19 different lotions and an annoyingly-aggressive foot/leg massage. She dug out an ingrown nail I didn't know I had and took a cheese-grater-thing (I seriously think it may actually have been just a cheese grater) to my rock-hard callouses, which was nice. We paid the extra $15 to get that special gel polish that sets with some fancy light they put over your foot, which I recommend to anyone who does anything that would potentially destroy a new pedi...like...walking, putting on shoes, stubbing toes, etc. What does need to be known, though, is that the gentleman pedicuring my stepmom took the cheese grater a little too deep and seriously dug some skin out of her feet. Like, seriously...blood, etc. We didn't realize how bad it was until the next morning. It was so bad that she couldn't walk. Mistakes happen, sure, but she decided that she wanted to go in the next day to tell them about the injury to her foot. Not only did they deny that it happened at their establishment, but they refused to compensate for anything at all. They were so rude to my step-Mom that a few people ended up leaving before they had been serviced. All in all, avoid this place. My step-Mom couldn't walk without limping for a week, they are generally heavy-handed with the massaging, and quality of service is seriously lacking. read more

Friendly atmosphere but not satisfied with my nails . The shape I asked for was not meant either . Nails started chipping near base of finger.. very painful . They guy doesn't know how to do nails my acrylic is paper thin! read more

Love this place, walked in 6 months ago and was placed with Jenny, now I see her every two weeks. She is wonderful at stiletto nails which is hard to find in the Punta Gorda area. I am always happy when I walk out of there and I get so many compliments on my nails. She is very creative and likes doing fun designs. Everyone is always very friendly and the salon is very clean. read more

They do nice work but , prices were to high. I had a reservation and I waited a half hour to be called. I probably will not be going back.
