Nailcessity is a family owned and operated salon in a great location in Metairie. I live uptown NOLA but come to see Tweety and her sisters because they are that phenomenal. I've never had a bad experience. I've been going to the Salon for about 15 years and they are always eager to please and satisfy their customer. Anytime I have asked for something different or to be fixed. They've always taken care of me right away. You feel the love as soon as you walk in their door. Ask for Tweety and she will make sure you get what you are looking for. read more

Great service with a smile! The entire staff are professionals! I work on my feet A LOT. In addition, i ruck and exercise and am the stereotypical guy and do not take care of my feet enough. These ladies are excellent at helping heal my poor mistreated feet! read more

Came in a couple days ago as a walk in. The salon is very small but they sure do have a lot of workers. That means you get in and out very quickly if you need to. I got a gel polish change and pedi for around $50, which I thought was a very good price point. Lan did my nails and they are perfect (pic attached). The workers are super friendly and are super willing to help. I had to change my polish color twice due to the color washing me out and got no eye rolling or scoffs from my nail tech. read more

My company sent us all for a manicure and I was very well pleased! Very clean nail salon, nice staff, knowledgeable & kind. I recommend them 100%! My nails look great! And it wasn't a long wait. There were plenty of nice ladies working there! read more

Racist! They dont like Black people! Deliberately messed up my brows . Did not give me a mirror and when I looked on the wall mirror I saw how bad my brows looked. The young woman who served me was smirking along with the other beauticians so I just hurried up and got out of there. read more

Every single employee is so sweet and accommodating!! I have been there several times now and each time has been excellent! They do great gel nails and prices are very affordable! Other salons take note! read more

Nice cute place. Showed pictures of American manicure and asked for bubble bath on my nail beds to cover them.. didn't exactly get that. For $40 read more

NAILcessity Salon & Spa - So much for bubble bath to help cover my nail beds :/ really annoyed the girl thought this was acceptable - Hair Salons Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

They've put a wonderful, hip spin on nail salons! The decor is modern and clean. Nice aromas. New equipment and pedicure chairs. Aromatherapy pedicures with hot stone massage and hot towels, acrylic nails, shellac manicures and even hair stylists! The service is ultra friendly and proficient. . Lots of parking and good prices too! *Right next to the U-turn at Severn/ W.Esplanade* read more

This place came highly recommended by a coworker as she is a regular. However I was extremely disappointed in my experience here. Both a mani & pedi was less than 40 minutes. The pedicurist was friendly but rushed. The manicurist was downright unfriendly and rude. NO LOTION after using harsh acetone nail polish remover. No massage. I was confused and noted my extremely dry nail beds and she put drops of oil ON TOP of the polish and walked away. Was our service done? Ok. No thank you or even goodbye. Very weird. Never coming back. read more

This salon is very earthy, beautiful and clean ! They do such a great job. All the staff are super nice. The prices are not expensive at all. Very affordable. It also smells wonderful in there. read more

Used to be my "go to" for manis/pedis every 3 weeks, but its not the same customer service as years ago, They are more interested in doing the service quick than doing it well making me bleed every time they do my nails. Time to find a new nail salon. Will miss you Nailcessity. read more

I went to NAILcessity on Saturday with my sister and my mom and all 3 of us loved it! Everyone that works there is so nice and awesome at their job! Lana gave me a manicure and a pedicure and she was amazing. I can't stop staring at my nails! I've never felt so comfortable at a salon before. I can't wait to go back. read more

I went in and had to wait a few minutes because they were short staffed one person. But by the time I was seen it didn't take but 20 minutes for a full gel manicure. They manicurist (Tweedy) was super friendly and funny. She even helped me pick a color that worked more in line with what I was looking for than my original pick. I will definitely be coming back!! read more

So I've been a regular here for at least a year, and it seems like the more often I came the less important my service became to the girls working here. Lately the staff has been downright rude and unfriendly. The last time I visited, about a week ago, one of the sisters who clearly had NO experience doing a gel refill filed the skin and cuticle surrounding my finger, the experience was so horrible I was about to walk out and find another salon to finish what she started. Her sister finished her job and they looked fine in the end. I will never give these sisters my business again, they treat patrons like they do not need their business anyway! Do not recommend, do not waste your money. Tweety (and sisters) may try to dismiss this, but go (at your own risk!) and let the service speak for itself. read more

I have been to every nail salon in Metairie and this one by far is the best!! It is clean, fresh, and I always get great service!!! I recommend NAILcessity to everyone I know!! Today I got a pedicure (which is not your typical pedi. They go above and beyond, including aromas and hot stones), gel manicure, eyebrow wax, highlites and a haircut.....from head to toe, the service was excellent!!!! read more

I've been going to here on a bi-weekly basis for the past 6 years for my haircuts. I went to Tulane medical school and it took me two years to find a decent haircut that didn't cost a fortune. Van is amazing and she has never disappointed me once with her haircuts. Now finishing my residency at Tulane and moving away I am now forced to find a clone of Van. Again she is amazing at her craft and would highly recommend her to anyone. read more

Horrible!!! This past Saturday was my second time at this place and had a manicure. Well my nails were not painted right. Half of my nail was not painted she didn't start painting g from the bottom so I have a huge gap between my cuticle and my nail. Last time going there for sure. Didn't say anything because I was so aggravated. read more

This place is like the Cheers of nail salons. My favorite place by far for friendliness, speed, quality, and price. Been coming here for a long time now and everytime I go somewhere else I regret it! read more

I've tried a LOT of different nail salons in the Metairie area and was never truly happy until I found Nailcessity a few years ago. The women who work there are professional, courteous, friendly and VERY welcoming. I always get a great mani/pedi there and couldn't be happier! I love the hot stone massage you get with the pedicure, along with their wonderful smelling herbal blends. Their prices are quite reasonable, and the service is wonderful! Highly recommend! read more

After flying on the road from Foley, Alabama to great a mani and pedi, I arrived there before 5 pm and I was told that they would not take me. I was a regular customer and was appalled I will never ever go back there again. read more

I highly recommend this place to everyone. The atmosphere is very warm and welcoming. My gel nail lasts over two weeks, eyebrows are on point, and my hair always look amazing thanks to the talented girls! This is definitely a one stop shop! read more

Love it here! I have been going to these lovely ladies for over 3 years now, and I always leave happy. Van has done my makeup several times, and it comes out glamorous and much nicer than I could ever do on my own. read more

I have been a customer of NAILcessity since they opened. Tweety and her sisters have done 4 generations of my family's nails, and we are treated like family no matter how long it is between visits. I wouldn't go anywhere else. The women are professional, inviting and caring. I've been to quite a few nail salons and they don't hold a candle to this place. I'm a life time customer! read more

Just moved back to NOLA from Baton Rouge and was in search of a great nail salon. Nailcessity was everything and more that I was looking for. I have now been consistently going every two weeks for a gel mainicure, pedicure, and brow wax. The staff are very attentive and excellent at what they do. The spa pedicure is amazing. they use the hot stones and hot towels which makes for a fabulous spa experience. All the ladies are very friendly and very open and willing to get to know their clients. Everytime I go in I feel like I'm catching up with friends. Definitely would recommend this salon to anyone. It's as good as it gets!!!! Leila read more

I love this nail salon! The employees are very friendly and welcoming. The decor is cute and the salon is kept very clean. I love how quickly I can have my gel manicure done. Prices are GREAT! I recommended this place to all my girl friends! read more

This is for Anonymous P. I can't help but wonder if this is the competitors comment? If I am going to post or review something, I am going to put my name so they know who I am!!!!! I have gone to this salon since they opened and refuse to go anywhere else. When you come here, you are family! They know you by name and customer service and work they do is AMAZING!! I get my hair cut here as well and am very happy. Every client I see there is so happy and don't understand this negative comment.? Unless is the competitors! read more

Went for a full set.... some of the staff were friendly...while others seemed bothered. It does seem that they treat their regulars better. I paid $40 plus tip for regular full set plus gel polish. My thumbs are uneven, the girl didn't even bother to push my cuticles back so now my nails look like I've had them done for about 2 weeks when it's only been about 2 days (went on Friday, today is Monday). The acrylic is uneven on all of my nails. The way she slapped the acrylic on, I should've known it was going to be bad but I figured she would fix it with the machine, after all, they are the expert. Friends told me i should go back but i rather just deal with it and find someone new. If you do go, i suggest you don't have Duece do your nails. The color I choose was nice thou. read more

Beware! Don't always believe what you read! In search of a nail salon with a spa feel to it I saw the positive reviews posted for nailcessity and thought I should give it a try. What a rude awakening I experienced upon entering this salon spa. Not only was the staff univiting but it felt as if my manicurist had a attitude problem and did not want to do my nails. To top it all off the manicure service I received was HORRIBLE! Not only did my nails chip after two days, But my nails looked worse than what I normally do at home. They looked unfinished, messy, and had a poor paint job done to them. What's most disheartening is that you can clearly tell the salon staff exclusively caters to their "regulars" and are not interested in welcoming new visitors, which unfortunately carries through their horrible nail service. A true waste of time and money, I will never EVER recommend anyone to this salon. Those who read this review beware!! Save your money and go to a REAL spa because this a cheap nail spa definitely reflective in nail service quality! read more

They are very nice. And give good eyebrow/armpit wax. Very good service! I would recommend this cool place to everyone.

My daughter and I went, it was her first time getting a manicure, it was my first time going there, I always wanted to try this place and I thought this would be a great experience for my daughter and I. What a disappointment. I will never go there again the staff was very unfriendly and I felt like we were not wanted there. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. read more

I recently visited NAILcessity for my wedding manicure and pedicure. The staff was very friendly, and my nails were beautiful! I would highly recommend! read more

I love this place! Tweety has been doing my nails for 9 years and Van does my hair. They are all sisters but when you walk in you feel like a part of the family!! It is so inviting and everyone is so nice! I tell all my friends to come here. I would never go anywhere else! read more

My new go to for my nails. The staff is fun. We cut up all the time. A hot stone mani/pedi for $40!! Gel on your hands is just $10 more. Polish holds for at least two weeks. I absolutely love this place!! read more
