Glitzy Nails

My boyfriends mother and I went here for the first time today to get gel polish on our finger nails. I had called a few days in advance to make an appointment at noon. When we walked in I immediately noticed they actually didn’t write down appointments. They were not expecting us in anyway and they only had two workers present along with three other customers present. After informing them we made an appointment the male nail technician did immediately sit us down and started helping us making other customers wait. (Which was nice for us but crappy for the other customers.) They initially tried to seat us at two separate tables away from one another, but after asking to sit together they did accommodate for us. We ended up having one technician between the two of us. He seemed to take his time and did a good job shaping the nails and cutting the cuticles. However, my gel nails started to bubble and he just put clear coat over it and finished it up as usual. The finished nail feels somewhat smooth but you can see visible waves of the gel polish. Overall, it was an okay experience. Probably wouldn’t go back.
Update: On one finger the gel polish started to detach from my nail and the polish is chipping off on the tip of my nail bed. This happened 2 days after getting my nails done. Pretty sucky…

I went for a pedicure with my aunt, I’ve been to better places but they did okay. More kids than nail techs, nice ppl! But it’s an extra 5 $ for the leg massage that’s supposed to be included in the pedicure. So I paid 30 $ for mine & my aunt paid 25 $ for hers. We only knew this bcus the pants she wore were tight at the bottom and couldn’t roll them high enough for leg massage. No one told us though.

Extremely limited color choices. Not very many polishes and even less shellac choices. He painted the shellac on so thin, it’s about the thickness of regular nail polish. One of my nails just broke, only 4 days later. There are bumps under the shellac from where he didn’t buff my nail well enough. The owner’s kids were there playing. Granted, they were well behaved but we all know kids have good days and bad days. I won’t be back here.
The two male nail techs sitting next to each other were having their own conversation in a different language while I was just sitting next there awkwardly. If you have a business, you should probably try to interact with your customer, not talk about them and laugh. It doesn’t matter what language it’s in, I know when someone is talking about me. They were talking about my color choice, so I confronted them about it. It wasn’t necessarily a pretty color, but it was the only gold they had. They said yes, that shellac doesn’t lay very well. It’s bubbly. Ok then, why haven’t you thrown it away? They picked me out a rose gold color instead. It’s ok, but not what I wanted. Just really frustrated they didn’t have more choices.
I’m sorry– once again-​that I didn’t just go to G-​Spa in Florence.

The only good thing that I can say is that they are open on Sunday. The salon is not clean, the workers have their children in the salon in cribs, playpens & wandering the store. I was continually annoyed by the flies during my pedicure. Although there were two pedicure chairs open & we were the only ones waiting, they seated another walk-​in before my daughter & me. I cannot imagine what salon the other reviewers were in, but we certainly didn’t not experience the same quality service. Will not be back.

Great place. Friendly, clean, efficient and reasonable cost for mani pedi. Highly recommend!

Lin gave me a great pedicure and gel manicure today. She is actually doing my pedicure as I write this review! This place is SO much better than that G Spa nail salon in Florence on Mall Road. I had a horrible experience there after getting a pedicure from Ann. I’ve never had such terrible service and a lame pedicure in my life. So I came here hoping to have a better experience and this place definitely delivered! My feet were so smooth and soft :) I will def be back!

Super nice place. Lin did a great job on my nails an was super sweet :). She even helped me pick a really cute summer color for my nails an was very patient with me an very helpful. Thank you so much !

Currently waiting for my toes to dry, and already reviewing. In town for a wedding, needed a last minute mani/​pedi, and ubered here based on reviews. Very friendly, hardworking staff. I made an apt, and I’m glad I did.
Mani good, greaaaaaat pedicure. If I lived in Kentucky/​Cincy, this would be my spot.

I started going here when I moves to the area two years ago. The staff is friendly and usually can get you in quickly as a walk in. As someone else mentioned, it’s run by a family. They do a nice job every time and have a good selection of colors. Prices are very reasonable and it appears clean. My only semi-​complaint is that one of the guys is a little rough with pedicures… but for all I know this might be the same person that two other people said gives «wonderful massages»!

I’ve been going to Glitzy Nails for about a year now. They are super friendly and I rarely have to wait to get my nails done — they are super walk-​in friendly. Manicures cost just $ 15 and they always do a great job. They also do pedicures. They are super nice when you come right back because you messed up a nail putting on your seatbelt :-)
It’s a family business and it’s not uncommon for the owner’s children to be there playing.

I’m from out of town and found this place via Unilocal!I went in on a Saturday morning and was taken right away. Mani/​pedi was $ 40 and was wonderful. I believe Jimmy did my feet. I just got a regular pedicure and the massage was amazing. Never had that long of a massage with just a regular pedicure. I think he spent 10 min on each leg/​foot!!! Zac did my nails and was super friendly and great to talk with! He made sure my nails were just the way I wanted them!!! Just for future visitors, they do charge $ 5 to take off old gel/​shellac nail polish (I didn’t mind this though since I hate doing it myself)! I would definitely recommend and will be back!

This place was so great! I went on a Monday around 1:30. Was taken immediately. Got a mani and a pedi. I wish I had gotten the guy’s name who did my nails. I have such short ugly nails because unfortunately, I’m a biter :(he took his time and made everything look perfect and it was a so worth trying a new place. I’ll post a picture of my super short, but very well done nails ;)

Was nearby and found this salon on Unilocal.So glad I stopped in– I got a pedicure and it was literally the best I have ever had, I feel like I just had a professional foot massage!

I just left from getting a fill from same person who did my full set a few weeks ago. I’m VERY disappointed that several nails are uneven and shorter than the same on the other hand. My left and right thumbs and index fingers are noticeably slanted and not the same length.
I was hoping to make this my go to nail place but it certainly won’t be anymore.
The hunt continues!

Great experience at this nail salon! The woman did exactly what I wanted and understood everything the first time. The prices are absolutely so low, I was actually quite surprised! You won’t be disappointed!

I went here a couple weeks ago for a French manicure on my natural nails. The first guy who started on my nails didn’t do a very good job of clipping my nails. They were terribly uneven. So he puts my hands in the hand warmer things and he moves over to the couch. So I’m sitting there waiting and waiting. A woman comes in to see him and it turns out she is his realtor. So while I’m still sitting there they start discussing closing costs! Needless to say I started to get pissed off. He just left me sitting there!!! Thank goodness for Jimmy!!! He finished up the client he was working on and hopped right over and took care of my nails. He gave me the best manicure I’ve ever had. The 5 stars is not for Glitzy Nails. The 5 stars are for Jimmy!!! I’ll go back, but only if Jimmy is available.

Just had the best pedi and mani of my life! Service was amazing. The massage was out if this world and he actually took the time to shape my natural nails. Couldn’t believe it!!! So pleased. Come here and ask for Lee! Just amazing!

Went to this place on a whim because I just moved to the area and didn’t know where to go. I loved it! The nail techs are super friendly and do a great job. It also wasn’t crowded AT ALL, which meant no wait. Even better — I got my hands and feet worked on at the same time — so relaxing! Plus, it made the visit really quick, as well. I’d definitely go back. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because they don’t have as much polish to choose from as other places, but I was still able to find what I was looking for.

Concur — I love this place! Friendly, never crowded, always do a great job. I don’t know why they aren’t more crowded! The only thing keeping it from 5 stars is they don’t always have a ton of OPI, which is better quality than some of the other cheaper polishes they carry, and they sometimes have no radio on so it’s quiet. But that could be a good thing! Again, love it!

I love this place. $ 15.00 manicure and they take their time. I love the hand massages when I get manicures but this place has the best I’ve ever had. Not only was it a long hand massage, the girl also did my forearms too.
