La Belle Nail Spa in Lincoln, NE

First time at the salon and atmosphere was fine people seem to be fine. The pedicure was going fine until the gal doing the pedicure decided to murder my big toe even though I had asked her to stop cutting at it several times. The photo is 24 hours after her mutilating my toe. I have never experienced this before and definitely not my first pedicure. I reached out to the owner and all she did was say I'm sorry, I would not recommend going here.  Update: I did get a refund after I asked for one due to this issue.

I was a walk in as I needed repairs. They got me right in, however, I didn't feel welcome. I was the first customer  of the day so they weren't yet busy.

It smells a bit weird and could use some cleaning. Several others cane in and they seem to have a lot of customers.

FAVORITE nail salon ever!! I live 3 hours away and still refuse to go anywhere else. I lived in San Diego for almost a year and they recognized me the second I got back, gave me a hug, then an amazing pedi of course  Kim and Jenny both do an amazing job!

By far the worst shellac manicure I've ever had! Two of us walked in at 10am and weren't finished till close to 12pm.  2 hours for a manicure and you would think it would be prefect,  but it is so far from it.  To start they reuse the tin foil that your nails are wrapped in to remove your previous shellac.  This means you have someone else's left I've nail polish, skin and germs wrapped around your finger.   That's disgusting!  They also don't have the modern drying lamp machines that only take 60 seconds.   They use the older ones that take 3 minutes which is along enough to heat up your nails to the point of making them red and hot to the touch.   My nails  look like a 5 year old did them.  There's polish on the sides of my fingers and hand.   She put 6 coats on and that includes the coat the owner came over and put on when a hair was polished over and "baked" into my nail.   They are so thick with polishI'm dreading when I have to get them removed.  The polish doesn't go all the up to my cuticles and has big bubbles at the ends because so many coats were put on.  Only half of my tips are painted.   She cut my cuticles to the point of making them bleed and then just polished over the dried blood.  I thought my last must have been new but found she had been there since they opened.   You couldn't pay me to go back to this place.   I would highly suggest you avoid it!

Absolutely worst manicure I have ever had. 4 employees giving each other pedicures when I arrived, told me to pick a color and sit, waited 7-8 minutes before they stopped to help me (I was the only customer there). After soaking my fingers and nails in a bowl of straight acetone (most other salons wrap just nails in acetone cloths for removal of Shellac paint), she filed my nails into squares (didn't ask me what shape I preferred). Polish started to come off after 4 days. I got the Shellac manicure, supposed to last minimum 14 days. Believe it didn't due to very poor manicure. Will never return.
