Cosmo Nails & Spa

Love this place!!! everything I like, clean, professional and very courteous. It’s a relaxing environment. Vi is my fave at pedi’s and Kathy is my fave for my nails… this is my spot for sure!!!

I finally found a nail salon in NLV that I love! The staff is friendly and had so much patience giving my 5 year old daughter her kids manicure. I am in love with my full set and the pedicure was the best I’ve had since I moved here 2 years ago. I will definitely return

Best place in north Las Vegas. I’ve tried many other nail places around the Aliante area but this by far is the best. All around in cleanliness, professionalism, staff, and product of nails. Would only recommend going to this place! Never had a bad tech or experience.

I’ve come here a handful of times for a pedicure and gel manicure. The last two times I ended up with Vanessa. She sands your natural nails down to the point of a long journey for your nails to recover. My nails are so scraped and chipped and yellow… that these types of technicians are forgetting the health part of one’s nails. This is not only to make your nails look all pretty and painted… the health of your nails should be put into consideration. Vanessa is very nice but she is a tad sloppy.
She did my gel manicure and my nails felt lumpy from how she buffed it. So when my nails were getting painted you could see the bump and peeled parts of my nail… in which she would try to buffer down again. This is the worst EVER my toenails and nails condition have ever been! She also charged me extra for doing two different colors on my nails? You know, 4 fingers one color, 1 finger another. The previous technicians who worked on my nails all charged me the same with me doing the two different colors. I got charged an extra 5 dollars. Instead of saying anything I just did the oh whatever and paid it. Mental note for next time.
Not to single out the shop because of one person… I do like the shop itself. I love that they take their time by not making you feel rushed like other shops I have frequented. Because they don’t rush with their current customers, this is the reason why a walk-​in and perhaps an appt would have to wait. I recommend making an appointment in advance so you can get priority. It’s clean and they do get busy. I don’t mind coming back but I definitely would ask for someone else other than her. I feel bad because she is nice, but the truth is the truth. From what I experienced… that is the truth.
My finger and toe nails have a long road to recovery. Once they’ve grown out and my nail’s health is restored… I’ll return.

I’ve been coming here for two years but after my experience today, I’ll never go back. My friend and I decided to go for pedicures. We made them aware that we were together upon our arrival. However after waiting for 30 minutes (they weren’t busy) and by the time my friend’s pedicure was ending, mine hadn’t even been started. On top of that, they tried to charge me extra when I’ve never been charged extra to remove gel polish any of the times I’ve been. I had them remove the gel polish and will never return again. I wasted 1.5 hours of my Saturday to still have to go somewhere else for a pedicure. Don’t waste your time.

Cosmo is the best nail salon in N Las Vegas! All the nail technicians are great but my personal favorites are Kristy and Lisa. They are very personable and make me feel at home while getting pampered. The salon in its entirety is a beautiful and clean salon. I’ve been coming for 2 years and I will continue to support Cosmo as long as I live in Vegas!
Thanks Cosmo for keeping my nails beautiful.

I love this place! The people that work there are nice, I’ve never felt unwelcomed, they have a great selection of colors and do quality work!

I love Cosmo nails! The workers are very sweet and funny. There store is very beautiful they have so many nice colors to choose from I recommend them

Best services, very friendly staff. Clean and professional job. Must check it out. The owner is very friendly and fun. She really know how to do the right nails.

I wish I could give this place 0 stars!!! I went in there to spend over $ 100 for a full set with gel, gel polish change, gel polish on my daughters hands, polish change for her toes and eye brows!!! I showed her a picture of what I wanted and she did want she wanted! I asked for them to change it she tells me the top coat is on! Hell no I’m not paying $ 55 for a full set and gel that I didn’t want! He threatened to take my nails off since he didn’t want to change it I agreed. As he is clipping my nails he says oh your not welcome back. I yelled oh I’m not coming back he got so mad he didn’t even finish clipping my nails!

This is so far my 2^nd visit and I might have to make this my go to spot. They held up the entire time I was in the Philippines for 3 weeks. James was able to look at a design and make it my own from start to finish. He was the first male that has been able to complete my gel mani from start to finish. I love my nails and it don’t hurt that they are much closer to my home at that.

Best salon… Lisa did a great job, I really liked how she took her time with me, will recommend this place to my friends and family, finally a great nail sAlon in Vegas

Went back.. Sadly i think.. *sniff fn sniff* fo tha last time! Wanted birthday nails and had *tha man* Vince, he did good. As in basically.. if i was a basic chick that could have slid. But, i was shocked when every design i asked for he told me they didn’t do. I couldn’t even get cheetah ding dong prints that someone pictured in their review. Not even a zig zangy zag! I like my nails saucey n i literally got the driest plainest suckest nails. Ive never been to a shop where i left to another shop for a paint job. On the strength of that they lost me and my homies! Ill be back when im ready to take the spice out my life –_​-​. Ain’t nobody got time fo that!

This used to be my main nail salon whenever I came home from college. However, since leaving and returning over the past year and half, I have seen the quality in the work Cosmo does gone down. They look good as soon as the job is done, but as time goes on you can clearly see what happens due to their rush job. Every time I come here, I have Vince do my nails. Yes, he is quick… But there is no reason to have me taking my full set off after one one fill in due to its cracking from the last fill. I feel the quickness has a lot to do with it. The surface looks good, but it’s all about the foundation with that acrylic! I may stop back on days when I need something quick, but I’m hesitant since I don’t want to waste money on acrylic nails that can barely last past a week, when in other places, I’ve had them last well into three weeks.
Cosmo is clean and looks nice, but don’t let that fool you as you may find yourself getting a rush job since they are popular.

My cute $ 80 manicure cracked and they did nothing about it. I had to take my nails off because I’m a service writer so I’m with cars and customers all day, I can’t walk around with 2 stilettoed nails on each hand. I showed them pictures and everything. This was my second time here. Never coming back. I’ll gladly look around for another place that will give me what I pay for.

I really like this place. Ive been coming here regularly for about 6 months. Vince does my nails and I usually just go to whomever for a pedicure. I prefer Vanessa for my pedi when she is available.
My situation: i have VERY short/​thin fingernail beds. My nails grow upward from years of biting, & my fingers are fat with deep set nails (that means my cuticles grow over the nails especially on the sides).
I like my nails to elongate my fingers making them look slender. I like the nails to be thin or a natural thickness. And Of course I like them to look like they are growing straight, not upward. Basically the opposite of the nails I was born with!
With ALL of that being said, it takes a very special nail tech/​stylist to transform my nails into something beautiful. Vince has not let me down once! He is a true professional and his motto is «whatever you want.» His philosophy is «learn to do everything so you dont have to ask favors or worry when a new client walks in the door.» He works quickly yet efficiently and will not hesitate to offer a professional opinion, when asked.
The salon itself is very peaceful, located in a newly developed are or N.LV. The clientele is made of mostly regulars and a few new faces. They have a great selection of regular colors as well as gel colors. I know that Lisa is the go to manicurist but Ive seen beautiful full sets that she’s done as well.
The Cons– The wait/​seating area. Their awesome work brings in ppl from all over, so being serviced without an appointment will have you waiting for at least 30mins. And the waiting area isn’t very big, so they often ask ppl to come back or make an appointment for a later time.
Also, if you make an appointment you may have to wait an additional 5−10mins. But it is well worth it, in my opinion.
The good news is, its not difficult to make an appointment. I called on Wed for a Saturday appt. & got in with no problem.

Can I give them a NO STAR?!
Don’t let the cleanliness fool you. I had a fill done and within 3 days 1 nail cracked… and by the 4^th day another nail chipped.
I called them and made an appointment to fix 2 NAILS. Not a fill… no full set… no pedicure.
I arrive 10 mins early. Stocky dude upfront greets me and tells me to have a seat.
40 minutes later… After reading 5 articles on Yahoo… and watching TV. The dude who’s supposed to hook me up is STILL filing his customer’s nails. Then he asks her if she’s doing a gel color. She starts barking orders about some complicated ass design she wants. Which means — –im going to CONTINUE to sit my ass on this chair because NO ONE else can help me.
Once I reach for my keys… these fools want to turn around and look at me crazy for leaving!!! Oh now you see me sitting here? Did I blend in with the chair?
Hey Cosmo Nails… honor your appointments and allocate your staff accordingly! I will NOT recommend you guys to anyone who asks me where I get my nails done. Lots of ladies work in my building… Guess where I’m telling them NOT to go…
BINGO.

I’ve been going to Vince for a while I love him! He does great work! It was one time I went and he was really busy so he recommended Lisa. #fail my full set was terrible and she knew it! 5 nails popped off with 1 week! I was soo upset that I didn’t go bck. So fast forward where I grew my own natural nails out.
My new nail lady had to cancel due to the flu. I headef to Cosmo nails. Lisa was the only one available (go figure) So I said («who can screw up a gel manicure?) apparently you can. After soaking my nails in little cotton balls, acetone and foil to hold them together on my fingers for 45mins. The gel didn’t come off at all. Which was weird to me because acetone always gets the gel right off with in 10 to 15mins.
Lisa suggest drilling the gel off. I advised «No because I don’t want my nails to be thin» she went on about how she knows and she’s only going to drill until the gel is gone and that’s it. RIGHT?! Well it turns out my nails were paper thin when she got done.
Sooo bad that only a few days after, My nails were bending back and forth cracking the gel. I ended up taking the gel off myself at home because they hurt sooo bad! My nails have never looked so terrible. Even though I love Vinces work. I will never gon back due to how careless Lisa is. She only care about the $$ and not the quality.

I’ve returned here twice since my first visit. My last gel nail set that Vanessa did lasted 3 weeks without any lifting. They’re so nice here and I enjoy that they converse with their clients. Very friendly and open minded when I wanted to do a silly design. They take their time.
This last time, Frank did my nails. He’s super cool, kind of quiet though. Most of the techs do everything.
They are closed on Tuesdays since that seems to be their slowest day.
Wouldn’t mind if they rubbed a little harder during the pedicure.

I always have a great experience at Cosmo Nails. The girls are wonderful! Jenny is super amazing. She knows art! Lisa thank you so much for making my eyebrows look pretty.
Overall the shop is clean, higher quality spas, reasonable prices, the team is always so talkative and I truly enjoy my time =)
