Xclusive Nail Bar and Spa

Great service Alexandria was very personable and efficient ! My nails look great the glass of wine was a nice touch

My nails cracked today (acrylic and nail). I’m not sure if this is because of poor execution or what. I was very sadden because I enjoyed my experience at this salon. I will return to get them fixed, or maybe go to an old spot. Disappointed.

Beautiful space, clean implements and the technicians are truly skilled! I can’t wait for my next pedicure :)

Love this place! I average one pedicure a year but after this experience, I am going to go more frequently. The décor is great — a mix of industrial and girly. The staff are very friendly and everyone was talking to each other. It’s a fun environment, unlike most nail salons.

The owner did my nail art stiletto acrylics and she was amazing! I’m Harley Quinn for Halloween, and she went above and beyond to make them perfect. Can’t wait to return! Highly recommend!

The parking is in the back and the décor is inviting and calm. Beware… I got a fill and a nail repair for $ 50. My nails are gel but the first time I went I got regular polish and it was still $ 50. If you decide not to tip it’s in the mid 40s as for cost. I have never paid this much for a full set but I appreciated the machines being clean, the technicians taking their time and the color choices. I have coffin nails admired by everyone I meet. ⁴⁄₅ because my fill in should not have been that expensive.

I’m 39 weeks pregnant and thought it would be nice to get a mani — pedi before I deliver. I knew it would be hard to get a last minute appointment on Saturday. I found xclusive nail on Unilocal and was able to get an appt an hr after I called. The shop is unassuming from the outside but very nice inside. I told them my name when I walked in and told them I had an appt. I picked out a color then waited at pedicure station for pedicure. Nail tech Jessica came and asked me what I wanted. I told her something baby related design on my big toe and ring finger. Pedicure went well but she didn’t do design on big toe because she wanted polish to dry. When we go to manicure station she asked what kind of design I wanted and I gave her some ideas. She said she normally doesn’t do designs but would try. I showed her simple because I didn’t want her to mess up. She started the manicure and I noticed she didn’t soak my nails beforehand. I asked her about it thinking maybe it’s a different technique. She responded that she was behind schedule and her client was there but if I really wanted it she would. I said that’s ok. When she started polishing my nails I noticed she was rushing. After she finished I pointed out that a few nails had bubbles in polish. She redid nails and when she checked again they were still there. She asked a coworker about it who gave some feedback and said she would look at it when she finished. I asked if someone else could do the design and her coworker Tasha agreed. At this point her other client left. She polished all of my nails over and Tasha did the design. My nail polish still has bubbles. If it weren’t for Tasha the review would be less. Jessica needs more training and shop needs to be managed better. I will go to Tasha next time

This place is by appointment only. I went in right when they opened on a Monday morning and they couldn’t take me. Looks cute though.

Got a pedicure today, first time. It was ok. The lady who did my toes rubbed my feet well but the pedicure wasnt the cleanest or neatest job I.e. she didn’t cut the dead skin off thoroughly and some of my toe nails were cut crooked. It was the same for the other 2 girls in my party. I wouldn’t go back for $ 30. Inside was nice and trendy, that’s what you are paying for. I’d stick to my $ 20 pedicure my local spot for a cleaner more thorough job.

I went in for the Monday/​Wednesday Special for $ 48 Gel Mani&Spa Pedi. Jessica was so sweet, I was a couple minutes late and she was very understanding, she took her time and my nails turned out so nice. Overall my nails are gorgeous now. (I would have given 5 stars just because im used to going to places that cover all of their pedi tubs with a lining and take their tools out of a sterilized bags etc. but by no means did I feel that anything looked or felt dirty just a nice habit) Will be back!

Love this place! Alex and her girls treat me like family and are ALWAYS super helpful and friendly! Anytime I chip or break a nail I can walk in and have someone help me right away! Definitely the best nail salon in Orlando with the most skilled and caring staff!

I called in the morning and made an appointment for 12:30 that same day. They were doing a gel mani and spa pedi special for $ 48. The place is super cute, clean, and very friendly staff. The OCD side of me like how they had the colors organized and they were helpful with picking out just the right color. They also gave me aver generous glass of yummy red wine… I was pretty buzzed by the time I left! Haha! It was very relaxing and I’d definitely go back.

These ladies are nice, funny and do a great job on nails. Price isn’t to bad a tad bit high for my taste but great for the work that is done by them.

Love this place. Super cute set up. Wine or coffee combined with great service. Love it !
Need to make an appointment.

I have gotten acrylic nails done for years but had taken a hiatus to attempt growing my own and doing at home gel polish (not successfully I might add). I live downtown and started my search on Unilocal to find a nearby salon and happened upon this amazing little gem. I’ve been back 3x and have my appointments lined up! (They send you reminder emails a day or two prior to your next service which is great.)
As soon as you walk in you can see and experience the difference of what a nail salon should be. It’s cute, artsy and a cozy atmosphere. You are immediately greeted and offered a beverage (wine is a plus in the evening after a long day at work!) the color selection is excellent with matching gel colors to regular polish mostly OPI and other high quality brands. Everything is very clean and sanitary and the techs take the time to keep it that way in between their clients.
The pedicure is very relaxing, comfortable and my feet looked and felt wonderful. As far as acrylics go, Alex is spot on with the shape and precision! I’ve been some places that they don’t take the time to ensure your nails lengths and widths are matching — definitely not the case here. My gel polish could easily last 3 weeks but I personally just love having a fresh set with new colors and designs more regularly so I treat myself. Bottom line — this place rocks and I won’t go anywhere else. They do facials as well, I will be trying those out very soon!

I went on the spa pedicure and gel manicure deal. I made an appointment beforehand and ran a bit late but the girls were super sweet about it. They ask if you want coffee tea or wine as soon as you get settled in. I chose a red wine and it was delicious. Very crisp and sweet. My nail tech was very professional and took her time with both my pedicure and manicure. She made sure the water wasn’t too hot. She asked if I wanted a refill when I finished my first glass. My pedicure lasted around 3 weeks which is very good for me. My manicure lasted a month!!! Completed unchipped. The French manicure could’ve been a bit cleaner on the edges, as I had gel polish on my skin below the nail and on the sides but she tried to clean some of it up. The salon is very chic and we’ll decorated. Overall good experience.

TashaLynn did SUCH an AMAZING job on my NAIL’s. I am TRULY impressed & this is my FAV & ONLY fav Nail Salon & Spa in ALL Orlando Florida. I WISH wish WISH TashaLynn wa a Savannah Native!

P. s. «I’m Now An X’CLusive TashaLynn Doll.
FranknKimm Over & Out

Don’t believe the 2 ratings! YOU HAVE TO BOOK AN APPOINTMENT ! (Maybe that’s why the other Unilocalers have 2 cause they didn’t know this.) I’m from out of town booked an appointment for the same day (I lucked out) my cousin & I got pedis @ the same time & I got a gel mani too.
This place is great. Alexsandra (owner) is super sweet thorough & great attention to detail.
Lovex3 the salon it’s so cute girly and clean. Complimentary drinks too!

I recently organized a Bridal Party group to get our nails and toes done prior to the wedding we were all in. All the bridesmaids had complimented me on my nails over the course of the showers, so they asked to check out Xclusive for their wedding nails. Our group of 6 had wonderful service and a great experience in booking the services and getting the services completed. Since I was Matron of Honor, I coordinated and booked all the services and that meant making a few changes as the date got closer– which Xclusive was totally great about.
The ladies at Xclusive were very welcoming as the gals arrived the day of and created a very festive atmosphere for our group. There were several comments from the group at how cute and chic the atmosphere was, and how nice and clean everything was throughout the whole spa. Everything is always neat as a pin, but as a regular I take that for granted. Some of our group had gel nail services, some had regular polish– whatever the service, everyone left feeling very pampered, very happy and with beautiful nails and toes.
The nail design work is always beautiful, for the wedding I had a natural polish (OPI Glints of Glenda) with sparkly glittery tips and an accent nail. What a nice break from a typical french manicure for a formal event, but it still works for my everyday life. (pic posted) The rest of the bridal party either wore Vampires Buff or the new Don’t Bossa Nova Me, depending on their skin tone, with sparkly tips. Thanks to the Xclusive Nail Bar team for making this a fun and festive occasion, our Bridal Party received a TON of compliments at the wedding.

Please don’t hate me.
I concur with what a lot of others have written. It is a very lovely and welcoming environment, the prices are more than reasonable, and sure my nails looked really beautiful when I left.
It has been well over two years since I have had my nails done. Why, you ask?
Two main reasons:
1. The Fungus among us.
It ain’t cute my friends. I noticed the sanitizing system in service noted on the front door, and that did ease my discomfort, which is why I decided to give it a go. Fungus is not healthy, and I’ve had friends with it who never return to salons because it takes so long to heal.
Like years, literally.
2. Toxins
I am trying to make my life as toxic free as I can. Resins, chemicals and allergens used in nail services can affect nail health, and is an issue especially if you are pregnant.
But after watching a marathon of Mad Men and seeing the sad and miserable Betty Draper’s perfect nails, I just had to try again.
After all, no one can be 100% toxic free, and I really LOVE nails!!! Enjoy life, right?
So what’s the problem?
My manicure experience.
The manicurist did not seem to be concerned with my comfort or wishes. When I sat at the bar, a gel polish light device was in the way. She worked on my nails while my arm was resting on TOP of it.
I asked her if it could be moved, and she moved it slightly to the left, WITH my arm still on top of it. Seriously?
So, at a stopping point, I moved the entire UV light to the side so that my arms could rest comfortably on the bar.
I showed the manicurist the shape of nail I wanted. It’s more of an almond shape, instead of super pointy. When she began to shape the nail, she did not ask if it was the shape I was seeking.
So, I told her. I told her the shape was too pointy, and I wanted something more rounded. She then began to tell me how it was not all that pointed, and how most people get theirs a lot more pointy, how she does this style all the time, and mine were not that pointy.
Seriously?
I’m TELLING you they are too pointy, and they are MY nails. These are not other people’s nails. So, again I asked her if she could round them out, and she then began to tell me all the reasons why the LOOKED more pointy than they were.. .
I just.. .
So, I brought my own polish. Butter London and Julep because they lack toxins that other polishes sometimes have. She was fine with using them, and my nails looked really pretty.
So, time for the nails to dry, and one nail hits the fan, and it’s nicked. A big ding on the nail polish. The manicurist saw the ding and did not correct it! I have been in hole in the wall places that make sure to correct mess up dings!
She just rubbed her finger over it and did not re-​apply the polish. I could not believe a manicurist would let someone walk out the shop with a big nail ding like that, but she did.
So, after leaving, I accepted my nails more pointy than requested. After a day or so, I decided to cut them and round them out more like I wanted them. Much better.. .
But every time I looked at my pretty nails, I thought of how someone didn’t listen to what I wanted, and I got upset all over again. I had to get rid of the experience.
I went to Bliss and had them removed in less than a week. The people there did not understand why I wanted such pretty nails removed.. .but I did.
Maybe I’ll try again.. .with a different manicurist? in another 2 years?
