Nails On The Edge.

Really wonderful experience beginning to end and excellent quality mani/​pedi. Wish I lived in Orlando so I could keep coming back.

Incredibly dedicated and professional. Her salon is comfy and relaxing. Beautiful pedicure and my nails always look perfect! You can not beat Val for a perfect mani/​pedi! Give her a try!!!

Valerie was great. She fixed the horrible job of acrylics I had put on yesterday at a random cheap salon. Instead of making me soak my nails in acetone for a long time, she took her time to drill the acrylics down. She is very knowledgable in nail techniques, and decided because my natural nails are normally so thin already, and the previous terrible nail tech used a drill on them (instead of just buffing to take away the shine), she kept a thin layer of acrylic on my nails and did a beautiful gel top coat. I can’t wait for these to grow out and come off so I can become a regular and have my nails done by her on a normal basis!

Great service and atmosphere and my nails look amazing two weeks later! I’ll definitely be back!

I would give Valerie (Nails on the Edge) 20 stars if I could! She fixed the acrylic nails I had done at some random nail salon — they were a HOT mess! Now my nails look natural and are exactly what I wanted! She is very friendly and super attentive! She’s me new go-​to girl! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Valerie is nothing short of AMAZING! She’s a perfectionist like me, so my nails are always beautiful and perfect when I leave! It’s so relaxing here, like your own private spa! The products she uses are fabulous and she even does waxing too!
If you’re looking for a new place to get pampered, this is the spot. I’ve been coming here for over a year and won’t go anywhere else!

Valerie is a true nail professional, highly recommend for beautiful nails in the Orlando downtown area!!!

I will make it short and sweet. Valerie ROCKS with the manis and pedis! i get gel manis and regular pedis at an amazing value! Val uses great products and knows what she is doing!!! Look no further than Nails on the Edge! Great relaxing/​CLEAN spot with just you and Val! The Best!

I’m procrastinating on my work for another 5 minutes :) just had a manicure and mini pedicure here and they were great! I’ve never actually been to a salon that’s just a one lady show, but I think I actually prefer it now that I have. Val did a great job and she actually knows a lot about nail health in general which is not always at the front of my mind when getting my nails done (usually polish color is). I know she takes walk ins… But since it is a small setup I recommend making an appointment. It’s a cozy and cute place too. Support small business owners!

First time at this salon and I am so glad I found Valerie! She did a great job on my nails and I look forward to visiting her and Maggie in two weeks! I highly recommend her. Her salon is lovely and quaint. Her work is detailed, unlike the multitude of nail salons that are out there. Thank you Unilocal for allowing me to find Valerie and thank you Valerie for being so wonderful!

Valerie is a gel manicure genius!!! I am so sad it took me 4 years of living in Orlando to find her, but I can now look no further. I have paid extra in the past to receive gel polish on my nails in hopes that it will at least last a week after my manicure and it always chips only days after the manicure. I am 9 days into my first gel manicure from Valerie and I do not have single chip or scratch on my nails! They literally look the way they did when I walked out of the salon last week. I learned that the application is key and other tips on how to make my nails last… and she was right on the money about everything. I have traveled and slammed these nails around over the past week and I could not be happier. Even my grow out is very minimal at this point. She really cares about the health of your nails and taking care of them properly. I would highly recommend going here for a high quality gel manicure that lasts. This is her own place and she is the only one in there. so I would recommend making an appointment even though she does take walk-​ins. There is additional parking behind the building if you cannot find a spot on Edgewater.

I found this cute, tiny nail salon on Unilocal!The owner does all of the work in this quaint, comforting space in College Park. Valerie, the owner, is a real lovely person with a big heart and love for all things nails. She stays up to date on the latest products and doesn’t use anything on her clients she wouldn’t use on herself (she tests it out before using with clients which is key to understanding her business and ensuring high quality products for her clients).
Because she is the only nail artist on site it is best to make an appointment. You can call same day and take whatever’s available or schedule it weeks out. She keeps good hours, often open until 8pm.
The services aren’t cheap but you get what you pay for! She takes her time and gives you proper care. She gave me the best pedicure I’ve ever had because she really looked at my feet and touched them to see where I needed attention — not many places do that!
Most importantly, she keeps her place clean! You won’t be experiencing tools or tubs that aren’t freshly cleaned for your use.

I called Valerie for a pedicure and a gel fingernail polish change. She was able to book me the same day. I walked in and it is a very private salon. One worker, one pedi chair, one place for nails. Very quiet and personal. When wrapping my nails, I was looking at gel colors and explained my reasoning behind a specific color I wanted to get. Unfortunately she didn’t have it, or anything really like it, in gel. So we started on my toes. I did the 30 min pedi. I believe this was ³⁰⁄₃₅ bucks. It was no frills but down to the point and just what I needed. She put a color on my toes that I really liked and we ended up using that on my fingernails instead of gel since I wanted the color. Valerie was easy to talk to and very experienced. I enjoyed my hour long mani pedi with her. I would definitely go back! My only critique is, again, with it being such a small salon, she doesn’t have as many color options as the walls and walls of polish you’d typically find.

I’ve been following Valerie all over Orlando for the past 10 years, and when I learned that she was finally opening her own space, I was thrilled. Nails on the Edge is such a great spot to have a manicure & pedicure. It’s private, so you don’t have to worry about hair stylists all around you or being stuck in a little back room of a spa.
Val takes immaculate care of her clients’ nails. She recommends treatments and applications that work for YOUR lifestyle and not just what she feels like doing at that moment. Her pedicures are some of the most relaxing ever and she’s a blast to chat with during the procedures.
Seriously, don’t waste your time or money going anywhere else. You get what you pay for at Nails on the Edge. Top-​notch service in every capacity.

Anyone who has «their girl/​guy» for a specific beauty treatment or service knows how difficult it is to try to find someone to replace them.
For ten whole years I had been going to Claudia at Image & Style in Doral. Not only did she do absolutely amazing things to my hands but she and her family became friends.
Needless to say I was freaking out trying to figure out what to do when I moved here to College Park. I have acrylic nails, have had them all this time because I used to do Triathlons and due to the chlorine, sea water, and general beating up my nails, no matter how much I took care of them would split straight down the center and peel off. This can be quite painful really. So Claudia suggested this option and they held up through the races and after I stopped I kept them. Still active, this is a great option so I don’t have to worry about them.
I had noticed Nails On The Edge, it is the closest place to my house so I walked in, asked the owner Valerie for pricing and availability and said I would call for an appointment. I went in yesterday a tad nervous. Nails are an art, you ether have the talent or you don’t. Period. I truly was hoping she could do them like Claudia did.
Honestly I must say I am so thrilled, they are wonderful. Valerie has been doing this for 25 years, and truly has the talent to do them right. She has loyal customers, and I now will be one of them. She is very sweet, professional and who doesn’t love local businesses? She suggested a few farmers markets, knows all of the business owners and when I told her I was looking for a job she told me about a place next door that might be looking for someone.
I am truly happy to have found Nails On The Edge. I will always miss Claudia (for the last two months she would tell me how sad she was that I was leaving and make me cry), but am thrilled I have found a new nail friend.
