Best places to get gel nails done

Goosey-Lucy · 31 Dec 19, 09:50 AM

Sorry mods if this doesn’t belong here, I wasn’t sure what it fell under

Basically I’m not going to have time to get my nails done before we travel to Manchester as my dads picking us up from home pretty much as soon as we finish work

So I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for places that do gel nails in Orlando? We’re staying near Poinciana but not too fussy about driving distances

TIA

The airport used to have a nail bar. That could be an option if it’s still there

Hi, I had mine done at a nail place next door to Escapology (the escape game place) on International drive the last time we were there. It was about 11am, the salon was quiet so I didn’t have to wait.

I’ve also had them done at a salon in Celebration on a previous trip.

I always worry if the staff are being treated well though, there always seems to be a young guy with a Bluetooth ear piece in (I didn’t even know they were still a thing

) who hangs about and takes the cash but doesn’t seem to do much of the work. On both occasions I gave the tip directly to the technician on the sly.

Was the one in Celebration near the Applebee’s? I think I might have found one there that seems okay and has good reviews

How much did you tip btw?

Hi

It was a couple of years ago now, I’m sure it was on the street behind the one with the Starbucks at the lake on it, I think

I am terrible at directions, it was called In style or something similar.

I think I tipped $10 both times but I think $5 would be plenty, for some reason tipping sends me in to a panic and I end up giving too much because I’m paranoid about not giving enough

Hi

I’ve had a look on google maps and I’m sure it was on Celebration Avenue. The girl did a really good job of my nails but they were just a single colour, I didn’t have any gems or fancy effects/colours you can get done.

Yeah that’s all I want is a single colour, nothing too fancy 😊
I’ll have a look at google maps, thanks for your recommendation!
