L B Nails — Local services in Dublin

This review is based on my first and last visit to this salon.

I had booked my appointment and stated that I wanted to have my old acrylic set removed and a new set applied. Upon coming into the hot salon, with absolutely no A/C, the technician greeted me and sat me to get my acrylics removed. In my past experience, across multiple salons, I have had them soaked off or filed down in preparation for a new set...

The male technician pulled out a tip (a long plastic acrylic tip usually used for new nails) and basically slid it up and under my current acrylics in a hasty manner and forced my acrylics off (my poor nail beds). When I expressed concern and discomfort, he continued and told me that this was a much better and quicker way to remove them.

All I can say is OUCH... and my pain tolerance is high.

This was an awful experience and I will NOT be coming back. When you pay for your nails to be done for you, you’d typically expect a lovely experience... this was the opposite. I felt like I was a pest instead of a guest in their building since they seemed to be in such a hurry to not even take the time to do the most basic part of their job correctly or professionally. If I wanted to forcibly rip my acrylics off, while drastically damage my nail beds in the process, I could’ve done that myself.

I’ve waited to see how the new set lasted and it has been okay, the clear gel coat wasn’t the best quality and became discolored over time.

Acrylic friends, avoid this salon...

It was okay, but I would not recommend them for any builder gel/3d designs. I was previously recommended this place by friends who had gotten 3D designs by them in the past (such as the ones that have been recently trending on social media) however I was disappointed with my outcome. I had given my nail artist a few pictures for inspiration, however she had struggled quite a bit with recreating the 3D design itself, to the point where I had to repeatedly ask her to redo it. It was either that the design was crooked/off center, or the wrong size and appeared messy. Ultimately, despite having to readjust a few things to clean up the overall design, I was left dissatisfied with the result. Overall, I would still recommend them for 2d designs, simply not any involving...

I wish to give good rating.But may b it wasn’t my day. I was running late 10 mins and the person I think Nancy was calling again n again which led me parking in Wrong complex. I had to walk 2 complex to reach the destination. Even when I told her I am walking to her shop she called thrice and her attitude was kind of rude. Moreover I fell in her parking lot and was bleeding When I asked her for cotton she told I will finish the waxing first and then only give something to clean up.She dint gave any breaks while waxing even if it was hurting saying if she stops it would hurt more. After waxing only did she gave me wet tissue papers to clean my wound.So I give her 0 on her service. Never going back to that outlet. LB nails you just missed a new...
