I've been going to Lux for over 10 years and have always been treated with care and kindness. My nails always look amazing and everyone there is very professional. I consider them one of the best places in Raleigh to have your nails done. I do suggest making an appointment in advance, because they do fill up fast. read more

Lux Nails - Recent dip gel manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

My friend and I met for a pedicure and chose this lovely little spa because it was open on Sundays. Diane did an excellent job with my "basic" pedicure, which included hot stones and a foot massage ($40). I added on a polish change for $12, and I'm so glad I did. My nails still look fresh two days later, even after shampooing my hair. That never happens! I will be going back and trying some of their other services. read more

I was a loyal customer for many years but yesterday the price for a fill suddenly went up to $55. The pricing board is yet to be updated (still has Covid prices). After this much loyalty, I don't like the sudden price gauging. If I made an appointment on the hour, there was always a 6-10 minute delay because there are not buffers with appointments. They also don't text for updates - you call and are in the book and it is a bit outdated with communication. read more

Kim was amazing!!! Her foot massage was out of this world!! I will definitely be coming back!!

Over charge! Guy kept couching in his hand and not sanitizing after! He over filed my nail! Burned my nails! And the design horrible!!! I paid for one of those what I asked for vs what I got! Do not recommend and it's nasty just sit and watch!!! read more

A few people I know talk highly of this place and so I decided to give it a try. I wanted a pedicure and a dip manicure. After seeing what time they open, I ventured over at around 9:45. There open neon sign was on a d I walked in. It was perfect timing, as they were able to accommodate me. I picked my colors and went to the pedicure chair, where I was able to pick the type of pedi I wanted. I opted for their spa pedicure, which includes a leg scrub and a massage with a hot stone. I believe the hot stone is custom for all their pedicures. It's my favorite thing ever so I was happy. I wish I knew who did my mani and pedi, as she was very thorough and pleasant. My feet have never felt smoother. And my nails look great. They stay busy, as the phone rang a lot while I was there and they filled their book with appointments. They have a ton of regulars, as there were many who came in and had conversations about their families, etc. They are practicing Covid protocols and I felt safe. read more

I called and was able to book an appointment an hour later, and when I arrived I was seated specifically with a nail tech who was skilled in nail design. I asked for a very specific design and showed reference photos, and walked away with a GORGEOUS almond acrylic & gel manicure. If you're looking for a great acrylic nail tech, ask for Joanne!! This full set was $62 and I will definitely be returning for my next set! Also, the inside of this establishment is so luxurious and glamorous. It makes you feel like royalty! read more

I did not realize how much hot stones changed the pedicure game until I had them here. This is included in most if not all of their pedicures. As a regular, each technician has taken special care to trim my cuticles and remove the dead skin from my feet- which I notice because my feet require some TLC Many people greet their technicians by name as they have a warm staff and large customer base - (so make sure to call ahead)! Team hot stones all the way! read more

I came here based on a few recommendations from my neighbors and I would say it was OK, at best. Let me preface this by saying I called before I went to ask if they did gel build/extensions because I had gotten acrylics in the past and it always damages my natural nail and they said yea they do gel extensions. I clarified again when I arrived and showed them my nails and he said they could do them. As soon as I sat down, the tech and front desk person said they thought acrylics were better for me. I told them I really didn't want to damage my natural nail and they kept insisting on acrylics. I maybe should have kindly said no and left at this point but I needed my nails done for a wedding the next day so I obliged. I thought maybe they had come up with a new way to do acrylics that weren't as damaging- they're the experts after all. The final set came out OK- not the best but not the worst. What I found the most bizarre is that she didn't touch my cuticle or do any clean up around my nail bed. I've had tons of manicures and I've always had them clean up my cuticles without me having to ask them to do it. They did do the cuticles for my pedicure so I thought that was odd. It definitely affected how neat the manicure was at the end. I've just never had a manicure that didn't include that. All in all, it was an average experience. The people were nice, but not accomodating to their client's request. I wouldn't recommend it to a friend and I'll be looking for another nail salon, unfortunately. read more

I LOVE this nail salon. I have visited many time and usually call beforehand to make a same-day appointment. Today, I went t as a walk-in. After a short wait, I was seated for my gel manicure with June. She was AMAZING! She really took her time and I was given the same time and attention as the other guests with appointments. I will not go anywhere else for a manicure! Everyone is so nice and accommodating! read more

I had a pedicure w/ June today & was very impressed by her skill & professionalism. She was very gentle & did an excellent job with my nails! Also, I appreciate that the staff wear masks, that they use new liners in the pedicure bowls, & open the sterilized instruments in front of the clients. I will definitely come back to see June; she's a big asset to Lux Nails!! read more

Last time I went the lady rushed though my service both pedicure and manicure. The man that did my nails was drilling deeper on my nails on purpose. My polish peeled off my toes in the bathtub. The lady was trying to run the front desk at the same time, so she was away from doing my service to check other customers in. The lady got upset because I didn't want the pedicure for $70. I will never go back. I don't care what they offering. read more

Do NOT use the nail tech Tina. This was my second time using her and my nails looked absolutely horrible both times!! I went for a fill in and color change. She cut my natural nails way too short!!! I told her the last time she did them the dip was not done properly and chipped within 24 hours. Same again, it's already started chipping! I've NEVER had such horrible service. To add insult, when she wanted to do my eye brows and I declined she began talking about me to the tech beside of her. I may not speak her language but when she ask me and after i declined she spoke to the girl beside her and they both then looked at me --- it's obvious! read more

STAY AWAY. I am so disappointed. I believe I had Lisa. I got an acrylic full set. She was so rude to me, my nails look so horrible and crooked and she cut my fingers multiple times. She never had me wash my hands during this, and never used cuticle oil. When she glued the tips on, she did a few crooked and I asked her about this and she brushed it off. When she did the nails, I asked about this again and she told me my nails were crooked and that's why it looked like this (they are not). When she filed my nails, they were all different lengths and all different shapes and all crooked and when I asked her to fix them, she gave me attitude and barely tried to fix them. When she put on the gel polish, she only put one coat, I had to ask for two coats of glitter to try and cover up how translucent the white underneath was. When I asked for a second coat, she scoffed at me and begrudgingly added a second coat. When I was checking out, I had to ask for a bandaid for my finger that was bleeding everywhere. Stay away from this place. I would never go back. read more

Wanted a mani and pedI. The young lady I was directed to seems to not know how to to a do pedicure. She dropped oil on a few of my toes then In the water. she swipes the used file across maybe two toes then used a scraper on part of my heel that had skin on it from the previous customer. I am sitting here trying to not get up and run. will never come back. read more

I had a new set of acrylics done at another nail salon and they looked horrible. I went to Lux and had Lily fix them. She did an amazing job! She was gentle, thorough, and made them look exactly how I wanted! I was so happy and i know I'll be back to have Lily do my fill again. I've also had pedicures at Lux and could not be happier with the experience and the results. This place is clean, professional, and friendly! read more

I'm going on week three with my nails perfectly in tact. Lynn did an awesome job. However, it's not the wonderful manicure that will lire me back to Lux Nails, rather it's the way I saw the workers interact with other customers. Steven, the owner knew each person by name that came through the door. A lady getting a pedicure was showing her stylist pictures of her kids. I've never been to a nail salon that had that level of customer service. I can't wait to become a regular! read more

Great pedicure, first time visit and felt very comfortable as a walk-in. I hope to return soon.

Called for an appointment the morning of and was greeted and taken back for my manicure as soon as I walked in. My manicurist did an AMAZING job (as you can see) and cleaned up my cuticles the best I've ever seen. The hot stone massage that is included in the mani was amazing and felt so good. This is my new nail place read more

I have been here twice, seeing a different technician each time and both have been great! Especially during Covid, they are very sanitary and i feel confident they take every precaution to make sure we are all safe. The gentleman that is in charge of appts and booking is very helpful and attentive, greets you immediately and tells you where to go/what to do. They take their time and pay attention to detail. These are my nails both times. I got an acrylic full set & gel polish! read more

I went here on the advice of a friend for a manicure -- my first one in years -- and was pleasantly surprised. Past manicures have damaged my nails so much that I am very hesitant to get them. But I explained to the technician that I had had problems in the past, and she made some suggestions to me that would go easier on my nails. The results were perfect, I have had absolutely no shredding or chipping of my nails after manicure here. I have gone back several times since, and also got a pedicure. Excellent results each time. Highly recommended. read more

After running errands all day, I was in need of a little pampering. I noticed Lux Nails during a stop next door at Tuesday Morning, and made a mental note to stop by later before heading home. I was their last patron of the day, but they didn't seem to mind...they fixed up a chair for me while I picked out a sparkly red for my piggies. She did this cool massage technique on my legs and feet with hot stones and lotion. That was different - I liked it. Walk-ins are accepted and the pricing is reasonable. The place seems very clean, and it's bright and airy. I'll be back here. read more

Been to this establishment three times now, and each time the services and customer service are GREAT. The guy that runs the place (who I think is the owner) is so warm and welcoming and you can see him speaking to all the customers like he knows them well. I haven't gone anywhere else since the first visits for my pedicures! read more

This place is the only place I go to now for SNS and pedicures. The owners are very professional and kind. I've had consistently great work no matter how I see. They really take the time to do a great job. They are also taking lots of precautions during covid and I'm glad to be able to still support them. The environment is very calming and relaxing, relaxing music and atmosphere. I can't say the same for other places around town. read more

Let me start by saying I've gone here several times and not really had an issue (hence the three stars). The past time I went however was a different story. We had an appointment and we're a little late (5-10 minutes) to be fair but they were not busy. They didn't have the color I initially wanted so it took me a little bit longer to pick out my nail color. Instead of helping me when I asked for recommendations, the manicurist was very rude and made it seem like I was inconveniencing her by taking a little longer. She rushed through the actual manicure, forgot to put a top clear coat on and skipped the hand massage completely. Regardless I tipped and left. On the way home my nails were SO sticky and already chipping even though it was shellac polish! I ended up going back and the manager told me it was likely because I didn't leave my hand under the light long enough (because she rushed through it). So anyways they fixed my nails (using the wrong color ‍) and they looked better. Well it's not even been a week and look what's happening! One of my nails is already almost completely off! Just so disappointing to spend money on something and not have it done right. The manager (I think his name is Steven) was very nice but unfortunately I'm not sure I'm willing to risk going again. read more

In from out of town, they got me an appointment convenient to my schedule. It's nice and clean in there, relaxing atmosphere. I got a gel fill with Lee (spelling?) and she did a lovely job. Usually I don't get white polish if it's not at my usual salon, but she did such a nice job and the paint is not streaky whatsoever. And she nailed the shape. Thanks again! read more

My second time getting a SNS dip manicure. First time looked great but was pretty thick on my nails as the lady did 5 coats of the dip (it was my first time getting the dip so I thought this was typical). Today I was charged extra because it was so difficult to get off, thought this was unfair as one of THEIR employees did it that way when I was there a few weeks prior. Maybe this is because it is such a dark color but I left with the the polish all over my finger tips! I feel as though I could've done a better job at home!! read more

I received a gift certificate for a mani and pedi for my birthday for Lux Nails. Overall, it was decent. I called ahead to see if i needed an appointment and was told they were free right then so if i could come then there was no wait. I got there in 15 minutes, and just like they said no wait, which was surprising because there were about 5 other guests in there. The pedicure was pretty basic, which was fine. They charge an extra $5 if you want they to use a salt scrub, okay. It was a nice extra. The girl finished in about 30 mins, then switch to the manicure. The woman was polite, but seemed a little distracted, or just not on her game. She almost forgot to do the cuticles on one of my hands. The paint job was decent, but i left realizing that i needed to clean up around my nails as there was polish all over the place. Overall, they seemed to be rushing everyone through, a lady next to me was having her mani and pedi dont at the same time. Not due to a shortage of space or people, just to rush people in my opinion. I think more time couldve been taken to make sure was a high quality job. It was free for me, aside from tip. But i dont think that i would go back. read more

I went for my first time at lux, I heard good things about it so I went to get my fill in done and the lady who did my bails was very kind and she worked hard and did so week I was very happy with my results. It was a little more than I expected but the results were great. read more

I love getting my nails done here. They are super efficient and everyone there is always so friendly. Very clean salon as well. The owner knows everyone's names who come in on a regular basis!

I've been to many nail salons but this one in particular just tends to over charge for no reason. Couple of my toes only had gel on it and let me remind you maybe like 2 toes but they charged me to get them removed even though LAST time it was like that and they did not charge me. They pick and choose when to overcharge and honestly that's wrong in my opinion. Go somewhere that actually is honest read more

I love this place. They are great at their jobs and friendly as well. They take extra precautions with COVID meaning they have on mask and face shields, take temperatures at the door, and require proper hand washing. This place is a little pricey but I swear it's worth every penny! read more

Lux Nails is tucked deep in the back of the shopping center it is in, and the shopping center right across the street actually has a place called the Luxe Salon, so initially this place was kind of hard to find. However, they were one of the very, very few places my friend and I found open on a Sunday, and until 6 on a Sunday which was really great. We were greeted just outside the door by a nice man and welcomed in. My friend and I both wanted shellac mani's and the nice ladies started on us immediately. It was a really great, quick experience. The nail salon itself was really nicely done, it felt moderately classy and they had *a lot* of great shades of shellac and regular polish which is a sign of a good nail spa. The pricing was pretty standard compared to everywhere else I've been. Four stars - this is a great place! read more
