Lucky Nails & Spa

The cutest nails I have ever gotten!!! This was my first time here, and I will definitely come back! She took her time with my nails and made sure they were even, and she also gave perfect design suggestions lol ended up being $60, which is what I usually pay for nails, so fair prices I would say! I definitely recommend this salon :-)

I typically enjoy going to this salon and the services I get from Ivy. The last two times I’ve had another older woman and just left disappointed with her work. I can only have my nails a certain way due to work and I explained that but she proceeded to put a layer of glitter on my nails “bc it’s pretty” and cured it under the light and there I was with glitter nails. It was during the holidays so I figured I could sneak by with it and the nails came out nice and I didn’t want to waste time and risk damaging my nail dremeling off the polish. This last time was very disappointing for me. I made an appointment specifically because I am getting wedding photos taken so I made sure to schedule my time slot thinking that would ensure time and attention. Not the case. I showed up to a full house with only 3 techs working and I had to wait. I got the same tech as the last time. I came with photos of what I wanted and told her it was for wedding photos. No crazy nail art, just a thin lined French tip with white chrome finish for my hands and feet. I had a bruise on my big toe from way back and she said French wouldn’t look good and suggested this bold blue instead to cover it up. Not the soft glam blue you would want for a wedding but my toes weren’t getting photographed so I went along with it. Again, wedding photos, they take pictures of your hands with the rings, bouquets etc so you would think if a nail tech heard those words they would put in work. It looked nothing like the picture I provided and SHE didn’t like the thin French tip so she urged me to go thicker because it’s prettier. After a layer was cured she noticed a bubble or something and tried to file that spot off of the freshly cured polish and then cover it with chrome which only highlighted it more bc there was this gob of chrome dead center and she was going to leave it like that and cure it and moved on until I asked her to fix it. After all was said and done I had these thick chunky nails and each and everyone had bubbles and brush strokes cured into the final product. She didn’t even file them into shapes evenly. I had some nails way longer then others and some completely on an angle. I sat in the parking lot in disbelief looking at the work in the natural light and I left completely disappointed. I couldn’t go back in for a fix bc again there are only 3 techs working at any given time and people kept piling in and clearly they rush through the work to get to the next client. I went somewhere else to soak off the work and start over and they did a much better job and I’ll make sure to tag them in the photos to promote their work. Lucky Nails used to be my go to but I think these last two experiences will have me taking my business elsewhere.

Can’t go wrong with this shop! Not only did I get a phenomenal pedicure and manicure, I got some information on nail care and maintenance! I love them! Come join their nail family! You’re going to love it over here!!!!

I really think this place should be at 5 stars. This is the only place in Jacksonville that looks nice and clean on the inside and you don’t have to wait forever because the ladies are so quick and professional. The selection is great for polish and the atmosphere is relaxing AND joyful. I usually get an acrylic fill, my mom gets gel. I have brought my nieces here. This is definitely the place to come with your daughter to get her nails done for the first time. They are all so patient and kind. My moms gotten a perfect wax. I’ve brought my newborn strapped into his carrier while I got a manicure, they were SO patient with me. This salon has a small town feel in this crazy city.

Took my husband for the first time. He was so impressed at how he was treated and how good he felt after. He is 88 years old. Says he will go again.
