Escape Nails and Spa

Absolutely love getting my nails done here. Always have a great experience with these girls and I have been going there since it opened. Love there menu of choices prices are a lil higher then some places but I think it is worth it myself. Also great… occasionally little girls getting there nails done with moms but nothing like some places in the area. I am getting my nails done so I can relax,
Was this review ???

Ugh where do i begin. I really hate leaving such a negative review because the nail technician was a great, nice girl and very helpful in the situation but it was such a bad experience, i cant help to feel obligated to make sure it never happens to another set of nails!
As this story goes, i went to get my nails done with only an hour to spare. I wanted a particular set of colored acrylic nails in which i showed the «owner» and she immediately knew which color. She grabbed the color and pointed me to a nail tech.
Excited to get started, I had a great experience so far. However, it slowly turned for the worst, when the owner was reviewing the nail tech work and kept saying that it was «bad work, not very good, don’t learn from this girl.» Confused, i couldn’t help but think why would she say that in front of a customer? but also, am i getting bad nails and she isn’t doing anything about it?
Instead, the nail tech started arguing and telling her to go away! At this point, i already had acrylic on my nails and couldn’t do anything about it except continue. But then when the nails were drying, It was a completely DIFFERENT color than what i asked for.
I was fed up with the service and quality that i had to argue for a Free gel color because the nail were hideous. Even after the paint, there was no way to salvage what was done. Some nails are shorter than the rest, you can see through the paint and less than a week later, the nails are chipping!
I am no nail expert, so my standards are not the highest. However, this experience has left such bad taste that its unfortunate i will never go back. It’s so close to my house and was looking forward to not traveling so far but, sometimes its better to stick with the places you know. i’ll stick with Jiviana.

I live very close so I was excited when a new nail place opened up, however, my two experiences here have both been extremely stressful.
Employees have too much employee chit chat, too much sideways comments about other clients and employees– no paying customer wants to hear these things when relaxing and trying to get pampered! I had one employee show my tech a screen capture from her Facebook account while the tech was working on my nails– not professional.
My first visit I had 3 different people work on my gel manicure… I would have happily waiting for the full attention of 1 technician. My second visit, I had a real sweet guy working on my nails but his skills were just not there– my opaque white color was a white gloppy mess. I could have done them better myself. I wonder if he is even a licensed tech.
The space is really nice and they have clean supplies. I guess I look for a different experience when I take time to get my nails done. Some ambient music would be nice — and also that complimentary champagne I haven’t been offered!

This is a brand new nail salon that has opened on 79 street and biscayne. It it located in a busy plaza with great parking. You walk in and the place is huge. There is a reception desk for checking in and out. On the right is the drying station with comfortable purple chairs. Straight ahead there are the nail stations, there is about 20 of them. Behind the reception desk, is the pedicure sections. The wall is filled with stone river Rock and you just feel like you are in a spa! All the pedicure desks are new. I love the fact that each pedicure tub has a plastic cover which they change after every client. Makes me feel like it is more sanitary. They offer different type of packages which if you feel like spoiling yourself a bit more you can! I also saw that the owner Michelle offers waxing and eyelashes. I go there for Kiannie she does an amazing pedicure and her polish job is always on point. The only bad thing is the owner Michelle is a bit pushy and always appears to be in a rush. But all in all I really do love this place and my girl Kiannie is the best!!!
