I go out of my way to come here. This place has an unbelievable amount of colors for gel & dip powder. They always find time for walk ins, I’ve never had to wait more than 15 minutes. They are very clean, sterile with supplies during manis and pedis, they wear masks etc. There is also a no fee ATM inside if you like to give a cash tip which I love.Services: Nail art

I have been having my nails done here for over a year and I have always been happy. Today I also had a pedicure and my eyebrows, upper lip and chin waxed. Unfortunately today's experience was awful from beginning with the pedicure and nails to the end with the waxing. My nails are crooked the polish doesn't cover the sides of my nails. While getting my waxing on my eyebrows the young lady started to use a razor. I asked her to please NOT USE A RAZOR. So she got a scissors. Again I asked her to wax them. So she stopped working on my eyebrows and went to my upper lip. I could tell she was not using the tweezers so I stopped her and asked her what she was using. She showed me the razor. I got upset and told her I DON'T WANT HER TO USE A RAZOR ON MY FACE. So again she stopped and moved to my chin. She did use the tweezer. When she was done she had me feel around my face and I could feel hair all over my lip and chin. She plucked 2 or 3 times and said she was done. At this point I was to upset to stay and say anything. When I got home my face still had wax and cotton all over it. I still had most of the hair on all 3 areas. I would normally gone back for her or someone to fix, but I didn't want to drive that far again. I went to a salon down the street from my house and they fixed it. I honestly can't believe that she knew what she was doing. My son is getting married tomorrow and I was hoping today would be a relaxing day for me to be pampered. After going there for a year this was a horrible experience and I will NEVER EVERY go back THERE.

If I could give this place zero stars I would. They truly don’t even deserve the time it’s taking me to write this review. However, I think it’s important for all of you to know how awful of a salon this is. My sister and I were getting our mani and pedi done for her wedding. We had appts and they got to us right away (for once). They treated us like second class citizens this time. Talking about my sister and me in front of our faces, obvious by the way in which they were staring us up and down and laughing while chattering. Eventually we called them out on this and at first they denied but eventually stopped. One of the men was truly the worst and kept rolling his eyes at my sister the entire time …not sure what his name was but he has tattoos up his arms. the other man there was also unprofessional. the women were guilty by association and laughed but didn’t initiate per se. Save your time and your money and go somewhere where they treat you with respect and civility

my nails are crooked. Was in too much of a hurry to go back as has to rush to another appointment. Was also disappointed she didn’t add the chrome like I wanted. She said in the end that she thought I didn’t want it when I said no such thing. She used the gelDryer thing when I just did DIP and clearly showed I wasn’t comfortable with it. The main reason I don’t do gel is so I don’t have to put my hand in that thing. Finally, she charged me extra. I told her the amount for tip I wanted added and she charged me extra. I was in a rush and too embarrassed to say anything. It’s not about the extra few dollars but the principle of it. I won’t be going back and don’t recommend at all.

I called and asked about the price they said $45 which i was fine with but once i checked out and looked at the price to sign the receipt and it said $57.22 and then i got home and checked my bank and it was charged $59.22!! & I tipped in cash while they had my card inserted and i wished i didn’t give them any tip for them over pricing like that!! First time there and never again will I go!!Service: Acrylic nails

Very clean place, and the nail techs are talented and precise. I have never had a better experience getting a manicure or pedicure. I recommend doing a powder dip manicure for the longest-lasting color and shine. Mine lasts for weeks, even in water, whether cooking, swimming, cleaning, or gardening.

I would not recommend this nail salon to anyone going to get their nails done. I went to go get a dip manicure and asked if I could have chrome on top since this is the newest trend. They said they could do dip clear coat and then go over it with gel and chrome. As I’m not a seasoned nail tech, I said this was fine. Within 24 hours the top gel and chrome peeled off completely on one finger and all of the edges on the other nails were peeling up and getting caught so I removed the rest. When I called La Vie asking for a refund (as this happened within 24 hours and I’m out of town and can’t go back to get this fixed), they said they could not do that because it was one nail and all they could do was have me come in and fix it. I said this was not an option since I’m out of town. They then said the best they could do was refund me $15 for the gel top because my nail didn’t break. I said I wanted the full refund since this isn’t what I wanted or I would share my experience. They said that they would not give a full refund. I’m sharing because I think it’s terrible they wouldn’t try to make this right for someone out of town. I would not pay $42 (difference between my initial cost and their $15 refund for the ‘after’ pic) and I don’t think anyone else would either. I will never go back to this nail salon.Services: Nail art

I’ve come here quite often since I moved to the area but last night was not a great experience. Got the deluxe pedicure with gel, did not even scrub the bottom of my feet. He finished the pedicure and I was like are you going to make my feet actually look nice… then when I get home I see he did a horrible job at cleaning up the cuticles on several toes. I paid $65 for him to paint my nails and basically do nothing else.Services: Pedicure

This was my first and last time here. I had the gel pedi/gel mani combo. Their website and menu at the salon stated the combo was $85. After my nails were done and I went to pay my tech stated my total was $100. I advised her that their website and salon menu stated it was $85. When I questioned her, she stated the prices went up. This was not posted online on their website or at the salon. I paid the $100 plus $20 for the tip. Later that day, the nail polish peeled off on four of my fingernails. What an all around disappointment.Services: Pedicure

First off I would suggest definitely making an appointment, I think these days anywhere you go you should make an appointment. I don’t know why this place has so many bad reviews but I think they did a wonderful job and I have been to plenty of nail places. I made an appointment online, day of, and when I walked in my nail tech was waiting there for me. Definitely gave the place to star right off the bat. The next thing I look for when I get my nails done is If they paint all the way down to the cuticle, I hate when places leave a big gap between the cuticle and the nail so it looks like you got your nails done a week ago. They checked that box so that gave them three stars. I gave them four stars because I got one nail tech through the whole process from start to finish, I hate when places switch up nail techs or have someone else do the paint job like they’re too good to do my paint job. And Five stars was for all-around great service, clean atmosphere and politeness. Again, make an appointment, walk-ins were not getting the attention nor the time as I was who made an appointment. That was not my experience so I did not fit that into my personal rating system. I had Tony Vu who did a wonderful job!!

My significant others manicure service was horrible as all they did was a quick snip. I got a dip tip and my fingers nails were not smooth and my thumb nail was big an lumpy! Quite disappointed. I usually come here to get my nails done, but now I guess it’s time to find a new place.Services: Pedicures

Work is ok but they lack great customer service. Not satisfied with my visit. Spend your money somewhere else. Nails done in a hurry.
