T & L Nails Kennedy - Tampa, Florida

Dec 2024 Great service. Visiting tampa and needed a pedicure so I randomly tried this location. 9/10. I got the classic pedi $32 + gel $20 + callus treatment $10. Loved the pedicure but wish he scrubbed my heels/ big toes a tad bit more to make them ultra smooth, besides that everything else was amazing. I had no polish when I came in and the process to about 1 hour and 15 min since I walked in the door (they had a bunch of staff so I was helped immediately; I came in on a Monday at noon)

I received a gel refill and gel pedicure! I’ve never been more satisfied with how my nails turned out as I have with this salon! Linh was my nail technician and she listen to what I wanted and how I wanted them done and they came out perfectly! I’m on vacation and found this salon after sifting through reviews on yelp! I really want to take Linh home with me!

T&L nails is my go to place for the past 3 years. I walked in back in 2021 desperate cos a friend of mine told me my now husband was gonna propose. I own a restaurant near by so I couldn’t have my nails done for years. This place came highly recommended. When I told the owner Mai (such a sweetheart) “I THINK I’M about to get engaged?!! HELP!” She dropped everything and we went over what style and new trends would suit my big day. They take so much time and care with you every single one of them becomes your friend. My girl Trang, she’s been with me through all my crazy moments too! My engagement, then my wedding!! Which was another mess cos I closed the garage door with my hand and almost lost 3 nails 2 days before my wedding which was wild. They walk me over my options and were very serious about the after care to make sure I wouldn’t lose my nails.

I honestly wouldn’t go anywhere else. It’s not just a nail salon, for me, it’s my refuge and my sanctuary away from a pretty hectic life.

Love you girls!!

Went to T&L nails after work today for some nail TLC. I have been here before and have always had a great experience. I got a manicure and pedicure today and the results were amazing!! I can’t stop looking at my nails!

I didn’t feel rushed, my nail tech Jay did a great job and took her time making sure my nails were perfectly manicured. She was so pleasant and made the whole experience feel very calming and not like a chore.

Will definitely be returning! It’s worth the drive, money, and time!

I live out of state and needed my nails done while on vacations, as 2 of them broke off. I called here and was able to get an appointment within 2 hours of my calling. The salon was clean and I was sat immediately upon walking in. There were quite a few other customers in there, but a lot of staff. The tech that did my nails barely spoke to me (receipt said her name was Jenny). She was mainly having a conversation my whole visit with the tech next to her, in what I assume was Vietnamese. She saw how my nails were already done, so knew the shape needed and could see how much they had grown out in the past 3 weeks (and I had pictures of my nails when leaving the salon at home). She asked me if I wanted them shortened and I told her just a little bit, just where they had grown out. She took the Dremel to my pinky and went almost completely down and then said " is this okay?". I told her that was way too short, especially since she would still have file them down and shape them. But there was nothing that could be done now. Why take them all the way down and then ask if the length is okay? Should have barely taken them down and then asked. So I basically paid $66 for nails that aren't any longer than my natural nails that I could have put polish on at home to look the same for free. When these grown out in 4 weeks, my regular tech back in Ohio won't have to cut them down at all. I was quite disappointed in the length, but she did do a nice job shaping them evenly and polishing them well. We are moving to the area, but I probably won't be making this my salon once I get there. The coral nails pictured are from this tech visit. The dark nails pictured are what she should have made the length.

Got my nails done there Monday, got gel polish which is suppose to last longer right? I look at my toe today and it’s missing the whole polish. Maybe they didn’t even paint it. Never been there before and I’ve never had gel polish disappear off my toe nail either so there’s a first for everything. Sorry for the feet pic but just to show you.

First time trying this place and it was excellent. Fast service, Jenny did my nail design perfectly based on the inspiration picture, staff were very friendly. I got a dip powder manicure and they made sure it was hygienic. They pour the powder into a separate smaller cup for you rather than having everyone dip their fingers into the same powder, which I know other nail places do. Also it’s in a good location right next to Starbucks. Definitely making this my new go to nail salon!

I end up paying about thirty dollars over what I intended. The area to me is not like right in Hyde Park, etc I was looking forward to Finding a home salon considering their right in the area walking distance. The tech Tea Use way too much acrylic And she didn't seem very resilient when I asked her about shaping and narrowing down the nails. She didn't even use the pink nail gel that I wouldhaveliked . I had to Settle with clear light pink. Very light gel color she found . I c. But the attention to details on the designs came out perfect. !!!!! I just don't understand out of all the techs I've went through. How at this salon i never had to wash my hands. . Idk. The place was a little bit unorganized with supplies and their carts everywhere. I wouldn't say dirty as some reviews stated. And it would have been nice for her to greet me when I tried to tip her at the end. But whatever
I'm just glad I didn't have to wait too long But my eyebrow wax job was impeccable!
Now for the not so fortunate.Revindefinitely , I think have text that i'm maybe just a little too new because 2 of my nails were ripped and in pain...one had pus. I do get that over time when it's time for a fill-in, they're not gonna look fresh LO.L.But I definitely have not had an experience like this before.I puss like there was literally plus under my nail.
