Gorgeous Nails III

Excellent pedicure! Get the spa pedicure which includes hot wax, stone, scrub, and the list goes on.

Went to get my nails done today the lady told me my nails were dry but she was wrong they got messed up when i went into my purse to pay. The only reason why i tipped her was because she told me she would fix it when i was done paying, she then just put finger nail polish over the messed up parts but you could still see it through the nail polish. After they dryed again she told me i was done. On my way home i went to a store when i took my seat belt off my nails got messed up for a second time. This lady seemed like she was in such a hurry to get back on her phone that she did not care about doing a good job or customer service. I’m not the type of person that throws a hissy fit and starts a scene in public but i would never go back. The last time i went there it was fine so it must depend on the person either way i wouldnt risk it by going back.

Never have I written a review on any place but after visiting this nail salon, I felt compelled to write this review.
I made an appointment with the owner Mimi for a pedicure and shellac manicure. 10 minutes into the pedicure, she was speaking Vietnamese and she was talking about me. Little did she know I understood every single thing she said about me. I was so upset but didn’t want to say anything until I was done. Midway through, she wanted to wrap my nails to prep for the removal of the shellac but I politefully declined as I was turned off and wanted to just be done. After that, she continued to talk about me to Yonni the other nail tech that works there saying that I was crazy, and that I’ kept changing my mind and she just wanted to get me out of there as soon as possible.
I wish everyone could understand what Mimi was saying because it was very rude and disrespectful. After I told her I could understand everything she said about me she looked up and said good for you very sarcastically. At this point, 2 other ladies in the salon who were getting worked on were looking and it became a scene.
The pedicure was half-​assed and my French manicure was very thick. This has been the worst experience I have ever had at a salon and I will let all my friends and family know how horrible Mimi treated me as a client. As a manager she should’ve been much more professional, it’s a shock she owns more than one shop.

This is the only place I have been to where my acrylics last. I’m very hard on my nails (I’m a vet tech) and I tend to chew and pick at them when I get nervous or start thinking, so my nails hardly last a week. Here, they’ll last 3 – 4 weeks! I am very pleased with the work they do, only downside is they’re a little pricier than my old place, but you do get your monies worth.

I had my mom take my daughter to this salon based off of the reviews. I cannot believe this place has 5 stars. To begin, my daughter requested white polish. They used white but both hands are a very different shade of white. One hand has a yellowish tint. I’m pretty sure this could be due to the fact that they only put one of her hands under the UV lights.
The next issue is the shape of the nails. Stiletto was requested but each nail is very different. A couple nails are sharp, a couple are rounded but most are just oddly shaped.
Last but not least, the polish is uneven and all over the cuticles. White, especially, stands out so it needs to be cleaned up.
All of these things can be changed and fixed, I know this. What cannot be fixed is how rough the technician was.
Obviously we won’t be returning. Onto the next.

Came here due to their other location being all booked. I’m really glad I did !! They do an awesome job!

EXCELLENT work! Great mani pedi for not too bad a price. I’ve never done the paraffin wax before and love that it’s included in the mani and you can get it in the pedi. The employees were nice, not very interacting, but nice nonetheless. I’m very satisfied with my service and will definitely return.

First-​time visit: Staff deserves a 5-​star or more rating, as they are very professional and know true customer service. The man who did my full set made it thinner than I am accustomed to. But, my nails look more natural than when others make the acrylic so blatantly obvious. That’s a plus for this salon. However, I feel that the acrylic could have been smoother. And, question for all salons… why don’t they ever clean and push back the cuticles prior to putting on acrylic? Nails tend to lift and look uneven because this is never done. For that I deduct a star.

This is a third shop for Mimi and her husband and just a follow up review stating how much I love Gorgeous nails! As long as Mimi and owner her shops will continue to thrive as she aims for such excellent service!
Pricing hasn’t changed in the years that I have been coming to her. $ 35 gets you a mani and pedi, which includes parafin dip for both hands and feet and also a hot stone massage! Can’t beat that!

I absolutely love this place. My family and i just loved to university place and i was going through Unilocal reviews trying to find the best bet. I’ve been to many salons where i lived last and every single place was a nightmare. I love my nails to be long and pointed, and this is the first place I’ve been to that did a prefect job! The staff is extremely nice and they have a good sense of humor. The establishment is clean and run very well. I highly, highly recommend this salon. I will definitely be coming back in the future!

just randomly wandered in this place recently on a sunday, looking for a new nail salon, and loving that they were open sundays and not crowded that day… score! (rare for the summertime!) «kevin» gave me a french-​tip fill and it was, seriously, one of the most perfect fills i have ever had — and i have had acrylics for a long time. he took his time and was friendly and had excellent attention to detail. i think it’s possible that i found my new place :-) yeah!
great job, Gorgeous Nails III ! (readers please note that this is Gorgeous Nails III, near Quizno’s and Desert Sun Tanning, it is not Gorgeous Nails which is down near Cirque street. totally different salon.)
thanks :)

very clean, very good work, nice staff, good location. me and my 3 ½ year old have made this our regular spot and they even have a kiddie spa chair. for only $ 35 i got a mani with rhinestones, a spa pedi with a parrafin dip and hot stone massage. my daughter’s mani pedi was only $ 15
