Nails 4 U is an incredibly nice salon with a great, clean aesthetic and friendly, talented artists. I've gotten shellac (equivalent to gel) and gel-x. If you want gel-x make sure to make an appointment a bit in advance because only one person there does it. They don't take walk-ins in general anyway. My nails lasted a long time and Shirley did such detailed, clean work. After I got my nails done here, one of my friends commented that it was the best she's ever seen my nails. They have a huge variety of colors for shellac and gel-x as well as regular. The one downside is it is quite expensive - I can't come here on the regular but definitely for a special occasion or to treat myself every once in a while.

Best nail salon in Madison, hands down! My favorite group of ladies, they are all so kind and patient and make you feel like you're their first priority. The salon is so clean and warm and cozy. I get a dip mani and it lasts a month!

My nails just from today! Gorgeous light blue dip powder manicure.

I've been getting dip powder manicures every 3-4 weeks for nearly 5 years. When I moved to Madison, I tried a few nail salons with mediocre results but when I found Nails4U, it easily the best--not just in Madison, but out of the dozens of salons I'd been to. Cecilia in particular is a phenomenal nail tech and business owner, and I've had wonderful experiences with Mia too. My dip powder manicures always last well over 4 weeks with no lifting, and my pedicures have lasted for months at a time thanks to their high-quality products and technical expertise. With an eye for detail in a friendly, clean environment, Nails4U is undoubtedly one of the best for manicures and pedicures. Cannot recommend highly enough!

Excellent Gel X nail service!

First time having nails done here and had an excellent experience! My daughter and I were able to get a same day and time appointment for Gel X nails for a special occasion. Nail Technicians were very friendly, attentive and helpful. Assisted with picking out colors as well as doing a very beautiful job! Relaxing atmosphere. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend!

I have been a Nails 4 I customer for years and it is the only place I trust. I have tried a variety of salons in the Madison Metro area and nothing else compares. They don't overbook appts and their services last! I also never feel rushed and can truly relax when getting my nails done. The color selection and service selection are top notch. I receive compliments on my nails all the time. It is the only place to go!

After having such a great pedicure here I came back in for a Manicure. I had shellac on from a previous salon and they were able to remove it for me for a fee (no fee if you're removing their own nail work). While getting the gel removed, I had a really nice talk with the owner Cecilia who told me more about the salon. They do not use drills here to remove gel polish (quite common everywhere else I've went) because it really hurts your nails. Removal is scraped off by hand after the gel is soaked with some type of loosening agent. They are also very clean, sanitizing every single thing used between guests. They use a new nail file for every single guest. And there is no smell of harsh chemicals in this salon because they use non toxic polishes and cleaners. Learning all of this made me really appreciate it even more. Cecilia was able to remove my old polish and finish my new manicure in a little under an hour. She was very nice to chat with and I'm so happy with her work! I will definitely be coming back here from now on. I highly recommend it!

I found a salon that makes me so excited, I actually look forward to my appointments. I love the business model: "everything is natural" and they don't do acrylic or gel. With a world obsessed with enhancements, this business embraces your natural nails and I LOVE IT! They make an effort to learn about me as a person, not just a paying client. I enjoy the conversations I engage in with each visit. I'm as indecisive as they come, they are always willing to pick my colors. Lastly, they are quick and prompt! I don't have enough words to describe how appreciative I am for that. I hate being somewhere for too long and can't stand half a day spent anywhere. The fact I'm in and out with quality service, can't beat it! If you're lucky enough to get an appointment, absolutely do! You want regret it

I've had better. I've had worse. I didn't ask to not use clippers and learned my techs judgement isn't the best as there was a close enough incident yet the alcohol spray proved there was an actual incident as the sting was strong. This means something got cut as suspected when I had an involuntary response to being "knicked." Moving along nice aesthetically. Decor is simple and cute. Walked in and booked... had to miss. Called to reschedule. Took forever to get someone on the phone. They appear to know some clientele Massage chairs for pedicures. My feet just were not buffed nor scrubbed well. Patchy job at best. As a result, I don't believe it's worth $38. I tried booking the male for my followup and learned he's the owner so he only comes in when they need the help. What made this 3 stars? * their appointments are close enough in time. * I didn't feel rushed yet my feet show lack of attention to the places needed. * limited basic OPI polish choices. More emphasis on shellac colors. * Great location. * Square Card acceptance so receipts can be emailed or texted.

Jumping Jimeney! They are the best. I was up here on…read morevacation. Wanted to find a nail place and chose them off of Yelp. When I called with a question, they were very nice and I made an appointment. I am so glad that I did. Tom did my nails. He did a great job! Did a nice job and the cuticles, the length and the shape. Exactly how I like it. When I walked in this was the color I wanted, but they had the color with sparkles. So I got that. If I was up here again I would stop in. I just wish that they were in my neighborhood so they could be my regular to go place. Thanks Tom! You're the best!

My daughter and I made an appointment for 3:30 on Friday for two pedicures and two full sets. We…read morearrived at 3:25 and checked in. My daughter was taken at 3:55 to get a full set. At 4:10, I was asked to sit in a pedicure chair. The gentleman who did my pedicure was rough, cut me twice, trimmed far too much off my big toes, and left nail polish on my skin. I didn't receive several of the items listed on that pedicure type. My daughter finished when I was still having my pedicure, and they directed her to a chair next to mine. After she waited almost 30 minutes, she didn't even want the pedicure anymore. No one ever came over to acknowledge her or start working. There were walk ins after her that received service. I finally sat down to have my nails done at 5:05. I had a picture of the French manicure I wanted. It took an hour and 45 minutes. It looked nothing like the photos; the edges were sharp and I scratched myself. There was so much product under the nails and I asked him to file it, but he did not. For two French manicures with a full set and one pedicure, I spent $224!

EXCELLENT, After a…read more2 month search, I have found my new nail shop throughout the endurance of my stay here in Madison. From the initial phone call to make my appointment, Kat, the owner, was welcoming and warming. On the day of my appointment, I was greeted immediately and placed in the chair, and Amanda performed the best pedicure I have received since arriving in this state. Thank you Jesus! Kat even went above and beyond to refill a toe that had been accidentally shattered and needed repair. I am so appreciative of the services performed and all the welcoming I received. This place is definitely a gem in the Roux, and not to be overlooked...great job ladies, and thank you so much for taking pride in great customer service.

My sister booked the salon for 2 hours to throw our SIL a "baby sprinkle!" The salon is well-kept,…read moreclean with several mani/pedi stations. There was also a private room for lashes and waxing, and two bathrooms. Kat (the owner), along with her staff, were extremely accommodating. She let us set up a small table with treats and goodies, and also offered beverages (wines and water) during their services. I don't get my nails done too often, but this stood out to me. A set of set of sealed and sterile tools were pulled out and used each time. From what I recall, most technicians place their tools in bin or glass with water, and do a quick rinse or microwave before using them. The tools here definitely seem more reassuring! And seems more efficient. Kat was also very knowledgeable and openly shared info when asked. Overall, we had a great time here! The only reason I subtracted a star was because my classic mani/pedi is already chipping and it's only been a couple days! This was probably my fault for not choosing shellac or dip--but I'm definitely going back for a French Ombré!
