Tucci Nail Spa

I have not left the business yet (I am finished with my manicure and pedicure, but wifey isn’t); and did not want to exit before posting this review for staff, owner, and future customers.
I live in the area, and drove by the location a couple of times. My wife had been searching around Bal Harbour for a nail salon, so I walked in a week ago and purchased a gift card (mani /​pedi). The lady that sold it to me was extremely nice and helpful when choosing the right package. I looked around and listened to the chatter, realizing they had many «repeat customers» that day (always a good sign). The music was top-​notch; the business looked fairly clean; and employees, happy!
Today when I brought her here, we decided to get me a mani and pedi also (so we could really test the place out, by being attended by two different employees)…
The owner was hanging around, giving his employees lotion samples to use on customers, and my cosmetologist seemed really excited.
My pedi started in a massage chair, with perfect temperature water, salts, and skin conditioners. I noticed that within 5 minutes (10:30 approx) the place was packed. Coffee was offered to everyone, and by the time my pedi was done; I was completely relaxed, due to the massage, conversation with the cosmetologist, and my feet felt like feathers.
My manicure was «off the hook»!!! My hands were treated with «I don’t know what» but they feel completely lubricated and soft.
The employee told me, Anthony, the owner, is from NYC… As long as he’s not a Yankees fan… We’re cool
This is a hidden gem in Bal Harbour… Prices beat the competition by a mile, and service out does them.

Walked in without an appointment and got right in to repair a broken nail from a previous salon out of state. Well I wanted something different and my mother who was with me pointed out these nails on Pinterest with the St. Louis Cardinals STL and the nail tech said she can do it. Well 1 hour becomes 2 hours and I’m about to fall asleep. She keeps telling me not to go to the Asians because they don’t know what they are doing. I shouldn’t shape my nails this way but I should shape them like a coffin. Never knew a coffin has some shaved off the side a bit. Plus there is so many bumps, not smooth like most acrylic overlays I have had. Well long story short it was not that great and in the end she charged me $ 70+ for these nails and she even put a clear cheap tip on one finger. I have had my nails done many times over many years at many different places. I have never been somewhere and have the acrylic curl up towards the cuticle area. If you are in the area for vacation or plan to be, get your nails done at home or if on a cruise spend the money on the ship. Don’t get me wrong the nail tech was nice but the job done was not so great. I’m just not happy because the «design» was too hideous to show others. I had to wait until I got back home to fix them myself.
I think a full set with a design that actually looks like something and not a smudged up crap is worth more than $ 40, but when it looks like these it’s not worth $ 72. Even using a completely clear tip from China that’s so cheap is horrible. Finally got a new set locally and they were shocked at how crappy my nails were.

Tucci is good when you need a last minute mani pedi or other service like brows, wax & hair done. They are always available and wait time without appointment is minimal. My favorite nail technician is Clovis. Clovis is the best at doing nails and has years of experience besides he is a sweetheart. I would say hes better than any of the girl techs there. I live that they are open sundays when other salons are not. Love the massage chairs as well. A regular mani pedi cost around $ 40.

I had a horrible experience, after making an appointment at the salon I was left waiting an hr before getting my hair styled. I even tried to walk out, but she insisted that she would get to me right away. Needless to say I spent 1 ½ getting what is a 20 min up-​do. Best part, she told me that she had given me a discounted price, uh helloooo she shouldn’t even have charged me! Then she had the nerve to wait for a tip.

Great service and great ambience, I enjoy going there because they are very nice and do an excellent job, prices are reasonable. I highly recommend it.

Im a regular everytime i go back to Miami (snowbird). Unlike other negative comments i always have good service, the gentleman that manages the place (maybe the owner, not sure) was always really courteous and find the beat way to fit me in even when its super busy. And he always come to each customer to check on them. They have a wide range of colors feom regular to gel to Louboutin… The spa is very clean and nicely decorated. Bonus: free wifi.

The floors are always dirty because he expects the nail technicians to clean while they’re busy doing nails, also lack of customer service in the other salons I have been too their was always someone asking if we wanted coffee or water. I only come back to this place because of Tania and Maritza, they are amazing!

I am a huge fan of nail tech Soyla because she rids both my hands and toes of their entire cuticles and dead skin (a feat here in Miami salons). Also of note? I’ve never had to wait here once… I love that I never need an appointment and can just walk in on a whim. The price is right, too. The cherry on top? The massage chairs here are BOSS.

Can I do less than one star? I agree with the other reviewers. The two people running the show are rude and obnoxious. Totally playing favorites. So unless you drive up in a Tesla you aren’t getting seated anytime soon. The nail girls are worked like slaves but do a great job… if you can get a seat.
I say skip it… there are four other salons in the vicinity.

You have to be friends with the owner (Anthony) or the manager (an awful Argentinian woman) to get good service. If u are a walk-​in and have a place in line, but a friend walks in or a bigger-​mouth shows up then they are allowed to go in front of you. I confronted the manager about it and she told me, «what I am supposed to do? They call Anthony and I get in trouble». So she can’t do her job and the boss actors to his friends. Some of the girls are nice and good manicurists, but most are RUDE, specially if you are not Latin and they think they can make fun of you in Spanish. After some years of going there I stopped and used other places. I went back after 9 months or so, to find out that the manager was correct and that nothing has changed, Avoid it if u can, not worth the hassle, or the loyalty,… Come summer that will be sorry that did not cater to us LOCALS!

I always come here but they play favorites. If you know the owner they will let you go first. There is no order and it a complete chaos. I called today for an appointment and they told me it wasn’t necessary and to just walk in. However, after 40 minutes of waiting (I was told it would be only 15 minutes) 3 costumers were let in front of me. When I asked the owner why they were let in front he told me because they had an appointment, even though I spoke to him on the phone earlier about making one. The mani pedi’s from of the girls are decent, however most of them are bad and the polish chips within hours. Also, most of the girls have really bad attitudes. I would avoid this place.

I came here during my two week visit & I came back the day before I left! This nail salon is clean, fast, and everyone is very friendly defiantly make this a stop of you need a mani/​pedi

I was a client of this salon for a while. During my last visit, I put my sunglasses down while getting a manicure and they disappeared. Management unenthusiastically helped me look for them around the salon but upon not finding them he told me that everyone at the salon had Raybans, implying nobody would need to take them. I felt like he implied I was lying about having sunglasses at all, which my manicurist can vouch for that I did. I’m not saying he should have checked worker’s purses or anything extreme or that it was even a worker or that they were stolen – they may be hidden in a crack somewhere. I’m saying he should not have turned it around on a client… and had better customer service skills. Low and behold, I have no sunglasses and will not return after being treated that way.

I’ve been to the salon numerous times and have done my hair with Belkys and love how she does my hair. Not to mention the prices are reasonable! But I went on Belkys day off and a gentlemen help my by the name of Anderson. He did a good job but he charged me WAY MORE than I usually pay. I was very annoyed and I paid and left. I didnt like that the prices vary on hair dresses. It seems to be very unorganized and lack of respect for clients. Make sure you ask the price before you get served!

The pedicure was not good. She did it in few minutes because I came 30 min before the closure. No smile and very bad service. I will never go back, I prefer to drive a little further and get clean and professional service !!!

I went there today for a mani pedi today and let me say what i wonderful time i had. The place is beautiful and very nicely set up, the girls are beautiful and very friendly, overall the staff was great. I was skeptical at first since it was very busy but i was taken care of in a very short wait thanks to the wonderful salon manager and the owner himself. My favorite part about the salon had to be the great attention from thr staff who constantly made sure everything was going great. I’ve tried a few other places in the area but ive got to say not nearly as good as the outstanding service at Tuccis. I will without a doubt return shortly.

When I saw a Nail Salon was opening up in my neighborhood I couldn’t have been more excited. I go to Tucci nails weekly for my manis and pedis. Every single time has been a great experience. I have done my nails with many of the girls and they all do a great job. I am a perfectionist and can be very picky, but they are always so attentive and willing to listen to my specific needs. The owner always seems to be around and is very involved with the business, making sure customers walking in and out are always happy with the service received. I have brought many friends and family members to try it out themselves and they keep going back! I recommend making an appointment also, as they can get very busy.

Just remember to bring your own polish. Some of their colors are old and too thick. Got my nails done on Saturday, and it is Monday and one of my nails is completely bare. Thankfully, I have this color at home and I can fix it myself, but why should I have to do that when I paid for this service?

I had a wonderful experience here Saturday. Came in for blow dry and Belkys was amazing. She started on me right away and was very funny. She joked around with all the other girls who worked there and made me feel very comfortable.
She was concerned about my needs and asked me exactly what I wanted before beginning work on me. I was surprised at how quickly she was able to dry my hair — Its pretty long and thick.
I was in and out in less than an hour and very happy with her work. I will be back, for sure, and I plan in referring my friends to Belkys.
I know its a nail spa and I did not get my nails done but I will do an update soon.

Recently moved to the neighborhood and was in search of a local, reasonably priced, clean nail salon. I found it. Tucci has top notch technicians, the place is immaculate, the price is more than decent, and they are 3 blocks away from home.
Bonus: they cary Chanel colors :)
