Fancy Nails & Spa

I never have luck with the nail salons in Lexington. I would avoid this one. Came here for a gel manicure with gel removal. It appears that this is a family business and perhaps the owner's son did my nails. Unfortunately, he didn't do a good job. Business was slow and the salon was able to accommodate me as a walk-in with only one other customer present. The technician started by using the dremmel-like device totally to remove my gel polish, which is a huge no-no! If they insist on using the dremmel, it should be just to scrape the surface of the polish prior to using acetone to remove the gel. The tech was just looking for speed and not the health of my natural nails, which is the difference between a place that just wants to take your money and one that does a good job. He drilled through the tips of my nails in several spots and hit my cuticle with the dremmel twice, which hurt like hell. I noticed that the tech had trouble locating the polish shade that I asked for and the one I am wearing doesn't look the same as the swatch that I chose. It's a violet toned pink, which is trashier IMO. I wouldn't choose this. The shaping of the nails was very poorly done. I wanted to grab the nail file and finish them myself. There was zero attention to getting a good shape - just smoothing any rough edges. Worst part is the paint job. It's very gloopy with a raised, bubble-like finish at the tips. I would say that the work done on my nails is okay for a teenage girl or someone working in a fast food place, but it's not good work in general. I will be paying for a removal today.

Friendly staff. They are usually very good, but at my recent visit, I was disappointed. We had a scheduled appointment, but they double booked appointments, with not enough staff on hand. They rushed between clients, skipped steps and hurried to get things done. My manicure was rushed and done in less than 15mins, while the person next to me got more detailed service. Same with the pedicure, it was rushed and not all steps were done.

This place is AMAZING!! They always are so kind, sweet, and welcoming when you walk into the spa. They are always able to do amazing designs and the pricing is very reasonable. They always have many selections of great colors for polishes and dip powders. I would highly recommend this place it is probably the best nail salon that I have ever been to!!Services: Nail art
