Kim was the nail tech who helped me. She was patient with me in what I wanted and how I wanted my nails done. She did both my pedi and full set acrylic. She did a very good job and listened when I wasn't happy to be able to fix the nail I didn't like. read more

All of the staff do a nice job, however, even with an appointment i end up waiting 20 to 30 minutes. I wish I could give Serenity Nails an excellent review because they do good work, but their customer service is so poor, I won't be going back. read more

My granddaughter and I came in today and we had a wonderful afternoon. Both of us had the deluxe pedicures.

Worst experience I've ever had had getting my nails done. Not only was my mail person very rude to me but my nails look horrible. Go elsewhere or save your money! read more

I was looking for a new nail home as I just moved here last year. This is not it! Wanted just a polish manicure... I could have done this myself. And they made me pay before the polish so I couldn't even be like no I'm not paying for that. Waste of 30$ also applied the cuticle oil myself because he rushed off... read more

Serenity Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - North Mankato, Minnesota

absolute TRASH. Guy who sat me was rude and put acrylic tips too big for my fingers. lady who finished the nails did horrible. looked nothing like the inspo pic she was shown. The acrylic was just blobbed on. I paid $80 just to go home, file the sharp edges off and re paint them myself. waste of my time and money, which I didn't get back. I will never ever recommend this place to anyone. read more

Don't mess around with those other Mankato nail salons come to serenity nails! My nail technician, Crystal, was so so nice. She was very skilled at what she does, and was great to chat with. They believe that the customer should come first, and they make you feel right at home. When I first arrived at the salon they asked me how they could help me, and I responded that I would like an acrylic fill, and they said to come back in an hour and they could help me then. I really appreciate when nail salons let me know straight up how long it will be, because at other salons I have had the issue of waiting around when they said it will be a few minutes, and really it takes about 45 minutes until they can see me. But that is not the case here! I got back an hour later, and Crystal gladly welcomed me back and very friendly explained the prices and what services they could offer. An acrylic fill with gel polish is $30, and with normal polish it is $20. I love how my nails turned out! While talking with Crystal, I found out that the salon also does eyelash extensions, the initial application is $100, and every fill is $50. I really want to come back here and have the service done! Everyone in the salon seems to pay very close attention to detail and it is not without notice from their customers. They also have a loyalty program, so make sure to sign up when you pay! I decided to come try this place out because every other place in Mankato that does nails is subpar, in my experience, and I saw that the other yelp reviews of serenity nails were absolutely amazing. The salon goes above and beyond to do the right thing and be a positive environment for all. Please read spread the news about this great place and try it out for yourself! Thanks crystal!! read more

Very unclean place. The nail dryer was disgusting and full of "I do not know what" on the inside. My nail tech person had his phone underneath the table, and he kept watching it while he did my nails. He went and helped a pedicure person and did not wash his hands after touching her feet. The plastic divider was dirty as well. No hand massage either, which was good as I really didn't want him touching my hands. I hurried to my car to apply hand sanitizer afterward. read more

the first picture is what i asked for the second is what i got, they stopped in the middle of my nails to go trim a walk in's toenails who had come in after me and i had to wait 30 minutes for them to come back and finish my nails. the staff was friendly but not conversational during the appointment. the tech who did them didn't ask me how short or long i wanted them and trimmed them super short as i wanted them the length i had in the reference picture. the shape isn't even and neither is the length on all of my nails. they also don't even bother to push back my cuticles or trim them so if i were to do that now on my own they would look grown out and i just got them today read more

Most rushed pedicure I've ever had and my polish had to be redone. The man that did my pedicure all of the sudden was gone so someone else and to fix his errors. Said they didn't accept credit cards and insisted I used Venmo. read more

Gel pedicure - used the electric machine to remove my gel polish but took off my nail almost to the skin. There is hardly anything left for the polish to adhere to and it's peeling off. My big toe nail is now so thin the nail peeling and tearing after I shower. The gel didn't cure and I'm afraid to go back to have it fixed because the nail is so thin and soft. read more

I cannot recommend this salon. We had an appointment but we're not serviced near each other nor at our appointment time. We had pedicures, but they were serviced differently depending on the tech. I also had a gel manicure that dried lumpy and uneven. We were very disappointed and dissatisfied for the amount of money we spent. They were very busy and seemed to rush through our services. read more

I made an appointment to have 3 pedicures and nails done with my granddaughter. First negative was they took 2 walk ins before us even though we were there which meant we were not able to sit together. Next the pedicures were rushed, not enjoyable, and their water was cold. Also they did not give my granddaughter a manicure they just painted her nails and charged for a manicure. Finally my heel is still painful because they scrapped it to hard if this is the best Mankato has I feel bad for you guys. This place is expensive and quantity over quality read more

They did a beautiful job on my friend's and my nails. They were extremely friendly and cared about the customer. They did a good job staying sanitary and wearing masks. Just remember they only take cash, Venmo, and checks! read more

The photos do no justice but WOW! I had called 10 minutes prior to my walk-in appointment, and once I walked in they took me right away! There was one other lady in there and I - but let me just say Krystal was an absolute doll! She was so kind to me the whole time and took such good care of my nails! I HIGHLY recommend you booking with her because I know I definitely will be coming back! Best nail tech in Mankato BY FAR!! read more

I had gone to Serenity Nails a few times, the gal did do a good job on my gel nails, however The one that worked on me had re-used tools that were used on other people's nails, this will cause nail fungus and it's just not healthy. A lady walked in and asked for the manager, all the workers didn't know what she meant, so she asked for the owner, one worker said she was not there and asked the lady "how can I help you ", the lady then announced that she was the state inspector and needed to see everyone's license. Well, after a few people excused themselves they took off out the back door. ( even the one working on my nail) Eventually the owner showed up and the inspector informed her of the laws and was given a small fine. read more

If you come to this place do not let April do anything for you!! She takes so long just for my nails to look terrible and leaves me all cut up! She's done my nails multiple times and every-time I am disappointed. All the other girls are amazing though! read more

First time, I'm traveling through town. Best foot massage! Happy to support this local business, I'll be back when I'm in town

Best place to go in town. Nice and friendly. They got professional technician and nice skills.

had an appointment and still had to wait 15 minutes before they could help me. 3 separate nail techs took turns doing my nails and they weren't even good. lumpy and there was a fly that kept landing on the dude doing my nails. read more

Always such an amazing experience! Everyone is always so ind and good at what they do! I go back every two weeks and haven't been disappointed. read more

My toenails look incredible BUT I chose a color and nothing was said...when she was "massaging" my feet and especially my calves she did it really hard and dug her fingernails into my skin. She then asked if I wanted gel polish because it looks better and dries faster and I of course said sure. I choose the $40 Deluxe pedicure and so when I got up to the register she says $60 and I was confused and she told me the gel polish was and extra $20! I assumed it was a little charge but another $20! Plus the fact that she NEVER once mentioned it would be more money! Again my toes look great but the whole experience kind of soured me from a place that I normally raved about to everyone. So...if money is a top priority then ASK! Exactly how much what you want done is! read more

Vanessa takes time to do it right! I wanted some nail designs that were snow/Christmas theme. Vanessa went above and beyond my expectations and my nails look great! The location is convenient for North Mankato or West Mankato and the price is competitive with other salons in the area. This will be my only choice from now on! read more

BEST IN TOWN!!!! Vanessa is amazing and takes her time and makes sure your nails look great!!!

Best nail salon in Mankato! They do such a great job and treat their employees like the first priority. I had Bryan and he did a great job. Only thing I need to mention is they take their time so plan on being there for atleast an hour. read more

I had a couple hours to kill today, so searched for a nail salon that would be able to do a pedicure right away. I called Serenity Nails and they said to come in. I arrived and picked out my nail color. This was honestly the BEST pedicure I've ever received! They took their time and the massage felt amazing. The painting job was perfect, and I didn't have to sit under the dryer for a terribly long time. The salon was clean, the chairs were comfy, and the staff were so nice. Pricing was normal. Overall a great experience, I wish I had this salon in my hometown!! read more

This is an excellent nail salon where I have Vanessa do my acrylic pink and white nails. I have gone to many nail technicians over the years and she is by far the best. She just began using a new technique called "Dip in Powder System" for pink and white nails which uses no chemicals. This is also better for your nails. She has a new salon conveniently located in upper North Mankato. read more

They didn't do anything I wanted I asked for a light pink and so they did but I also asked for a black flower design but it turns out looking like a Bobbie pin did the job and I never asked for glitter at the top of my nails but she did it anyway I do not recommend this nail salon read more

Hands down the best nail salon in the Mankato area! At some salons you are just another customer, but at Serenity Nails you are more then that. I have never gone there and felt intimidated or uncomfortable and if you have a vision of what you want, Vanessa will exceed your expectations! I highly recommend using Serenity Nails for you salon needs, you will not be disappointed! read more
