Nail Magic

I have been here several times, find the women who work here very accommodating — but really a run-​down place and extremely poor hygiene. If you get mani/​pedis often, you know that those tubs you put your feet in should be cleaned (at least), and/​or have some plastic in them — not at this place. For several times, I’ve not seen them clean these tubs between customers other than a rinse. My last visit this past Sunday was unfortunately when there was a water main break and they lost their water for several days, so everything was poured from some buckets of supposedly clean water. No tubs were cleaned in between customers (I suppose they were preserving water), the towels smelled moldy, everything was hurried. It was a bad day with that water problem, but not untypical of the pretty questionable level of sanitizing at this place.
For the price, the service is average, but I have always come back because they are so close to Publix, where I shop, and they are some nice ladies.

I can’t say enough about the staff. I take my mom who is in a wheelchair and these ladies are totally amazing with her. Mary is loving and kind, the place is spotless and they do an outstanding job at a reasonable price. Will never go anywhere else.

Super happy with everything from this nail salon! Results of my nails were exactly what I wanted, every staff member was very cheery and positive, and services were such high in quality but low in price!

$ 40 for a mediocre gel pedicure!!! I was pretty disappointed in this place… Run down, slow service and kinda pricey. Not cool! I won’t be coming back.

Wow sitting in this business of which I have been coming off and on for some years. I have patronized this business because I’ve had somewhat of a personal relationship, I may have been blinded to what has apparently been happening over the years. It was subtle things, like when a caucasian customer would come in after my daughter and I. I would notice some how either our chair would not have the water running before others or they were trying to «situate» a place for us to sit together and someone else would get attended to before us. Those subtle solar plexus moments that you try and convenience yourself were not so.
Well today we walked in after, over a year of not utilizing their services to a fairly empty shop, we said hello and acknowledged one another, and asked for our usual pedicures. Moments later 3 caucasian customers walked in and hmm some how not only have they been seated but are being serviced. I have been sitting here for over 20 minutes with my feet in soak. I cannot believe that I’ve had to ask why I was not being attended. I was told that it’s because the young technician didn’t know how to do nails and that’s why she is only taking off polish of the people who walked in after you. Wow it’s sad how they believe my money is less green than the other customers who don’t look like me.
Needless to say it saddens me to say I won’t be back, I won’t finance my own oppression.

I found this place on a Sunday and I really like it. I always get the gel nails and a pedicure. The place that I used to go to started lacking in their service so I promised never to go back there again. This nail salon is not a spa, it is however a cut above the rest in terms of attention to detail and the overall quality of the job that they do. No bells and whistles, just a great clean place for a Mani pedi. I love the job they do on the gel nails, it last a really long time and I have yet to have any issues with them peeling or anything like that. People are really super nice and friendly here.

Tried them once, will not go back. They had the tiniest selection of gel colors to chose from and I’m convinced that the color I got was not the color I asked for. The place is run down, was very empty for a peak Saturday afternoon. Go somewhere else.

Nice staff, great pedi. Unsanitized tools get a big thumbs down.

I had to drop my pup at the vet for an hour so I decided to get my post surgical feet pimped out.
I walked in and picked a color since that’s what you do. They sat me at the row of empty pedi chairs. I think they need to save some pennies and upgrade because those bad boys were in horrible shape. Grimy and smooshed with chipped resin on the arms; it doesn’t give you the cleanliness feeling you’d like when someones about to go to town on your feet.
Since I was 2 months out of bone spur surgery I told the lady to be CAREFUL. She had to have the owner relay it to her. No biggie, but she got a little handsy a couple of times and I leapt back. Perhaps I should have waited until my big toe was less sensitive. The lady gave a good foot and leg massage and was pretty considerate of the toe during massage time. She also did a great job painting my toenails. It’s been 3+ weeks now and still no chippage.
*Moral of the story– new chairs would go a long way… and do your own pedi’s until the urge to leap away from the person touching your foot subsides.

The pedicure lasts FOREVER, even during the summer. This is definitely a convenience nail salon rather than a full-​fledged spa. They always use sterilized materials, and I have been going regularly for well over a year and have never had any infections or other problems. Quite nice for the price.

Summary: Not magical.
Popped in to get a quick pedicure for a night out. Even though they were busy they fit me right in with only a minimal wait for a nail tech. Pedicures here are dirt cheap ($ 20) and when combined with a manicure it is only ($ 8), so I conceded to get a mani as well.
The pedicure was pretty standard although she pointed to a sugar scrub at one point and not knowing what to do, I shook my head yes, only to find out they charged me later on for that. While I was getting my pedicure, the owner came over and did my manicure. She was very hurried and it ended up being one of the worst manicures I’ve ever gotten. The polish had overlapping marks and she didn’t take the polish all the way to the corners of the nail. But, you get what you pay for I suppose.
I would come back for a pedicure if money is a little tight, but definitely staying away from manicures here.

I don’t get my nails done often, but I think I can tell what are clean practices and what are not!
Although I was pretty happy with the results (my French mani and pedi), I just felt like the place was really dingy and strange. The owner Mary would just talk non-​stop in Korean (I think), speaking to noone in particular, and at one point, just looking at herself in the mirror and talking a good 3 minutes. Weirdness!
Also, when the lady was fixing up my narsty feet, the buffing block she used looked really old… gross! She changed the blade for removing calluses right in front of me… so at least I know that is clean, but it just seemed really unprofessional.
Anyway, the results were pretty good and I haven’t contracted a disease, but I don’t think I’ll be going back!

I enjoy spending an hour or two at Nail Magic. Having a less than wonderful day? Is there friend you haven’t spoken to in a while? Pick her up and go to Nail Magic for an inexpensive, pleasant experience. A manicure and pedicure are $ 20 total. Oh and boys, I’ve heard more and more about men having pedicures these days. Maybe skip that afternoon beer with your buddies and go to Nail Magic. If you don’t care about your nails, you can maybe pick up some cute girls. Maybe. If you are reading this review you’ve at least thought about it.
