Lexor Nails

Went and got gel nails and a pedicure. Ended up leaving and having a infection on my right big toe. Went back to tell the lady she gave me an infection, she was rude and told me it was my fault for saying I was because she asked me if I was ok when I said owe when she hurt me! I was fine at the moment but didn’t get infected until after the fact! Don’t go here, very rude. Didn’t even offer to give me my money back or anything! Calling the state board and the health department.
So it’s been two months and my toe is still completely messed up. Been seen at urgent care and a pediatrist, And taken a course of antibiotics and nothing has changed, only gotten worse. Never go to this place. Stay far, far away!

I had this place recommended to me by several people. I had finally given up on my other salon after a few bad experiences.
I was able to walk right in and get started, mind you it was a Monday about 11 so there was no waiting.
I didn’t get anything special, just a pedicure. The lady didn’t talk to me at all, but that was ok. She spent a great deal of time fixing up the mistakes from my last one (see above why).
Overall, good experience and I will go back again for sure.

Showed staff a picture of how I wanted my toes and she stated she would not be able to do it. Asked if I could have someone else do it and it looked nothing like the picture. The person who did my toes got very angry when I told her I did not like how the flower s came out. She told me she would fix it and I waited about 45 minutes after the lady who initially did my pedicure told me she was too busy to fix my toes. A usual peaceful enjoyable experience getting my toes done turned into a hour and half waiting and very rude staff. I will not be returning!

Fab. My favorite place to get a pedicure and gel nails. These ladies are nice, services is constantly great and reasonably priced. They have tons of nail polish and gel colors. And they give you a punch card for $ 5 after 5 or so services.

a long wait but they do a great job

I have been to quite a few westside salons before and this one is most definitely one of the nicest! The staff is filled with smiling, friendly people who are working hard to serve you. Although I waited with my feet in the pedicure tub for quite some time, I enjoyed the environment I was in. If you’re looking for a quality nail job and have the time, this is the place for you!

I came here because the majority of Unilocal reviews were positive, but I was very unimpressed. I came in on a weekday morning for a mani/​pedi. I did not have an appointment, but I hoped they wouldn’t be busy (and the door read «Walk-​ins Welcome»). They weren’t busy, but they also didn’t help me quickly.
After having me choose my polish color, they had me sit in the massage chair and put my feet into the water. I sat there for 45 minutes and waited. I would’ve walked out if my feet hadn’t been wet. Colossal waste of time — even though one of the workers was available… he was cleaning stuff, straightening things in the shop, checking his phone, etc. He eventually helped me, 45 minutes later. Wow. Oh, and he continued to be on the phone while helping me.
The instruments came out of a drawer. Were they one-​time use? I seriously doubt it. Had they at least been sterilized? I HOPE so, but I was too scared to ask. I was quite sure the answer would be «what does sterilized mean?»
They also had one of the employees kids just walking around and playing the entire time. And they continually stopped «working» on me to get her to stop fussing with whatever she had gotten into. Not professional IMO.
I will never be back.

Love the staff. Everyone is super nice and they were so patient and accommodating with my 8 and 2 year old! Not to mention they did an amazing job! I don’t get my nails done regularly but I was so impressed with the place I might just start now.

If I could give this nail dump 0 stars I would. I’ve lived and/​or worked in 40 states and had my nails done in all of them and I’ve never experienced such bad service and such a dirty salon.
1). It’s dirty. Check out the sink, the floors, the nail stations. When I asked for sterilized implements they looked at me like I was crazy.
2). When I asked why the technician only put lotion on one foot and leg she got mad and started huffing and puffing.
3) My gel manicure lasted 2 days when it should last for at least 10. I’m guessing this might be because they put nail polish remover in the gel polish.
This place is awful, and the staff rude, and with a salon on every corner there’s always somewhere else to go.

A friend and I went here for pedicures. We were immediately greeted and set up in two pedicure chairs after picking our colors. The salon was very clean and had a relaxed feeling to it. The ladies working on our feet did a great job and chatted with us. There was no feeling of being rushed or just trying to get us done so they could get us out of their chairs. Pricing was reasonable ($ 19.99+tax for the pedicure) and we both upgraded our pedicures for $ 10 extra. I’m interested to see how the pedicure holds up since I’ve had problems with that from other salons. They gave us a punch card — after 5 or 6 visits you get $ 5 off. There are also cash (I think it was 5% off if you pay in all cash), group (4 or more got some % off) and birthday (30% if you go on your birthday and show ID) discounts available. I don’t live here, but when I’m visiting and have time to get my nails done, I’ll certainly come back.

I definitely agree with the 1^st reviewer. I come to get my toes done every few months, and, while I’ve tried other west side salons, I always end up back at Lexor. The techs are always friendly, the salon is clean, and the work is excellent. My polish always lasts until my next visit (usually about 2 — 3 months), and I always get compliments on how my toes look, often months after I’ve had them done.
Their pricing is as good as, if not better than other salons I’ve been to, and since I frequently bring my daughter with me, I like that they have a kid’s chair as well. We’ve had our toes done here since they first opened (they were one of the 1^st businesses to move into this shopping center), and I’ve always been happy with the job they do. A few months ago I came in on Mother’s Day, and when I got here they had me come in and get started, even though they weren’t officially open for business yet.
I guess you could say the bottom line is that I give Lexor 5 stars, 2 thumbs up, and an all around rousing endorsement. If you find yourself on Albuquerque’s west side and you want to get your nails done, give Lexor a try. I think you’ll be happy with the results.

I have no idea how this place isn’t listed on Unilocal yet, but I’ve found my new regular nail salon. I avoided going here even though it’s within walking distance from my house after a friend told me it was pricey (she was wrong).
The prices were better or comparable to other west side nail salons an the place was clean, clean, clean! You didn’t feel like you’d catch some scary disease putting your feet in the pedicure tub and the instruments came out of an autoclave.
The technicians were all super friendly. Best of all for me, they didn’t rush. I’ve been to places where it feels like they’re just trying to shuffle you out as quick as possible but they really took their time and made sure the job was done right (which in my case involved taking care of my scary callouses… but my feet are now baby smooth which they haven’t been in at least a year.). The lady next to me was having some elaborate Fourth of July pattern put on her toes and she thought one nail didn’t look right (it looked fine to me) but her tech redid it without argument and told her he wanted to be sure she was happy with it.
Make sure you ask for your punch card to get five dollars off your next visit. Getting my nails done is a rare treat for me but the next time I do I’ll definitely be going back here.
