Mohegan Nail Spa

A five year old could have done a better job. Went in with my mom and sister for pre-​bridal shower mani-pedi’s. The girl who did mine (Tuyet Mai) could not have done a worse job. She refused to push back my toe cuticles or barely scrubbed the calluses saying it wasn’t needed. (Even asked her multiple times to do it) there is literally paint all over my skin and cuticles. When she did my nails she also refused to push back or trim my cuticles after asking 3 times. We didn’t have time to sit and wait for them to redo and after talking to the manager he refused to offer any sort of refund and was extremely rude. He brought up the lady to the front and started yelling in Vietnamese which made us very uncomfortable. Won’t be back!

I have been waiting for over an hour at this point. The phone has been ringing the whole time without being answered. I can’t get someone to tell me how much longer the wait it. The doors are propped open and cigarette smoke is pouring in from it front. I will never come back. Not worth the wait or the low cost.

After several horrible experiences at nail salons (the technician at the last place cut me so badly that I bled for an hour), I was reluctant to try again. However, my experience at Mohegan was amazing. I got a manicure and pedicure. The lady doing the pedicure took her time to make sure my toenails were cut perfectly, and she gave me a long, relaxing leg massage. The design she painted on my nails are also beautiful and original. I have seen many nail designs, but I have never seen one like this before. The man doing my manicure, Tha, was incredible! He has been painting nails for 22 years, so he clearly knows what he is doing. Tha spent a lot of time making sure my nails were absolutely perfect. No nail technician I have been to has ever put that much heart and care into my nails. When I told him how thankful I was, he replied, «I do my best.» Tha was so humble and kind! Mohegan Nail Spa will forever be my go-​to place.

Been here lots of times for special occasions… I don’t normally spend money to get my nails done so it’s a fun girlfriend thing for me to do. Every time I come here it’s so insane busy that they are hear ding you around like cattle. We had an appointment but apparently that doesn’t matter… We still had to wait for 25 minutes until they could fit the three of us in. Then our third got started 20 minutes after we did so we had to wait for her to be finished. What is the point of making an appointment!?! This is so frustrating! There were also about 5 choices of red and pink. Call me old school but I don’t want green/​yellow/​blue toes — yuck.
Super disappointment. Guess you get why you pay for. Next time im going somewhere else.

I remember why I stopped coming to this place. The last time I was in this nail salon was 2011. After my experience today, I remember why I quit coming.
I have an hour lunch break. I desperately needed a manicure and my regular salon is too far from my office to make it there and back in an hour. I called the salon around 1 to see a) if they were busy and b) how long a fill and shellac would take. The man who answered the phone said 35 minutes. I said «Great! Can you put me down at 1:30? My name is Lindsay.» He clearly didn’t, as he quickly said «okay» and hung up the phone. Thankfully they weren’t busy.
I sat down and a woman started on my nails. I needed one repaired, as it had chipped. The first thing she did before removing the current shellac was trim my nails, WITH A NAIL CLIPPER. ARE YOU SERIOUS. Anyone that gets acrylic on the regular knows they have to be shaved down because they will crack. And guess what. ALL OF THEM DID. Then, some other patron came in. Apparently she was more important for some reason and I was sent to a male technician.
This guy could not have done a worse job. Dear lord. See pictures. He didn’t trim the excess under my nail, he got nail glue on one of my fingers. The polish wasn’t all the way to the edge. I had to ask him 3 times to shave down my nail because they were thick as hell. I eventually gave up and they are still quite thick. I kept reminding him I had to be back to work at 2:30. My office is at least 5 – 7 minutes away if I make every light. At one point, I looked at my watch and it was 2:18 and he hadn’t even begun putting the shellac on!
TL/​DR: This place sucks and does not take any sort of pride in their work. If you’re looking for an amazing nail salon, this is not it.

I have to downgrade a star because I have been having color issues with them. For their shellac, I think they are putting a cheaper alternative in the bottles. The color hasn’t come out the same as the sample the past couple visits and my most recent visit the color completely changed on 48 hours. The painting and manicure are good overall and I will likely be back but this color debacle has been frustrating. If I wasn’t traveling I would have gone back in for a fix.

This used to be my go to place for pedicures, but something has changed over the years. I like that they have a lot of spa chairs and always have plenty of help. Over the past year, each time I have gone to get a pedicure my polish chips off in under a week. I see them adding tons of acetone to their polishes to keep them thin. They need to invest in new polish, so it lasts! The paint jobs are not very nice and my heels are left rough. I am in need of a new pedi place!

First off let me say I’m such a nervous Nancy when trying new places. It’s unfamiliar so there’s no trust that you have a quality product or service. With that being said, my stylist in chair 2c was very reassuring lol. Pros: they came out cute as ever, I love the little brushes at the hand washing sinks, and the whole look of the place is really nice and upkept, yet the prices are very fair. I walked in and was assisted in a timely manner and she asked my opinion thru out the process. Also seeing as I kept moving my hand to inspect as she went (without realizing it), she was very patient. And the full 10 minutes of the dryer is a definite plus. May seem common to some but I’ve had issues with chipping paint on a thought to be dry nail as I walked out the door. Cons: got acrylic on my fingers and cuticles (but got most of it off before I left). Also not the best rapport. Part of the reason I love going to 2000 nails is the quality as well as the friendly customer service so ⁴⁄₅ stars but assuming I have no major quality issues over the next two weeks till its time for a fill, I’d go back.

If you are in need of a real foot and leg massage this is the place and Khuyen is the guy! Only four because it is a very busy shop with a lot going on but it was still pretty relaxing. At least they are open on Sunday’s. Blondo and others are not now that it’s fall.

Linda Trang was fantastic. It was my first time and I thought she was top notch. I’ll go back because of her!

This is my first nail shop since moving to Omaha. I’ll definitely be coming back. I’m very happy with my gel/​shellac manicure! Friendly and clean place.

I’ve been there a few times over the past couple of years and I’ve been able to get over the fact that the service is inconsistent because not everyone gives great pedicures/​manicures, but something I don’t tolerate is dishonesty. When I reviewed my credit account charges while paying my bills, I realized they had overcharged me for my last service/​made changes to the total amount I signed for. I am extremely disappointed and will not be returning.

I’ve been here two times. The first time I went it was the first time I’ve ever had a pedicure in my life and I loved it. The color was perfect, the hot towel wrap and stone massage were the best and having this done really isn’t that expensive if it’s just once in a while. Well worth the money!
The person who did my first pedicure was a male, I don’t remember his name but he was very quick but detailed, I absolutely loved it. He seemed to enjoy what he does and takes pride in his work… it could be that he’s more experienced too. I would recommend asking for him when you get there. He’d be worth the wait if he’s already working on someone.
The second time I went I had a younger girl who worked on my pedicure. She just didn’t seem happy to be there, she was distant… I don’t know it just wasn’t the same experience and I think it makes a difference if the person who gives you a service like that at least has a little interest in what they do. She might as well have been a cashier at the McDonald’s next door.
Maybe I expect too much, I don’t know…

The nail experience is amazing! I searched around Omaha a while and this is the place I constantly return to. They are typically pretty busy and also do a pretty thorough job so don’t plan to be in and out in 45 min. This is meant to be a relaxing experience and they make it one! Orange slices, hot towels, warm oil and warm lotions and hot stones really cap the experience. My tip if/​when getting a pedicure and getting a design don’t be specific on what you want. That is setting the nail tech up for failure. Let them do what they are good at and neither of you will be disappointed.

Still trying to find a good nail salon in Omaha. This isn’t it.
Came in for a basic manicure for my engagement photos. The technician didn’t say anything to me except, «Why aren’t you getting shellac?» I told her I didn’t have time, and she never said another word to me the entire time.
She chomped so hard at my cuticles that I flinched a couple of times and said, «ouch!» She never even looked at me, apologized, or let up on the scissors. I was surprised my cuticles weren’t bleeding. The «massage» she gave me was lame, and seemed like it was a huge annoyance for her. You can imagine how good it felt.
She took my bottle of nail polish, which was separated, and didn’t even shake it before she started painted. She put the base coat on, then two coats of color, then a top coat. She didn’t take ANY time in between coats to allow the polish to dry and didn’t even have me use the fan.
Needless to say, two days later, my polish started peeling off in giant sheets because she didn’t bother letting it dry in between coats. After I went and put my hands under the dryer, she came and slapped down a coupon in front of me with the price on it and didn’t say ANYTHING to me. Great customer service!
I’m only giving this two stars because the prices were reasonable and my fiancé really enjoyed his nail technician and received an excellent hand and arm massage. I would rather pay more money for a god experience and a manicure that lasts more than two days.

Seems to be very clean, nice, doesn’t smell like chemicals at all. Definitely a place to recommend. It’s a big place with a big staff to match. Price is worth it!

It’s a nice, big and clean place with lots of space for a mani or a pedi. I hardly ever have to wait to get nails done. Cindy is great, I highly recommend her. The other employees are okay, customer service is not their strongest quality but they do good quality nails at a reasonable price. I’ll keep going back.

Been going here for a few months for pedicures. Nice clean place always busy. I have had both good and not so good nail techs. Today’s visit was perfect, Annie did a great job. All pedis include hot stones, hot towels and a massage. For the price and value it is a place to try and if you find a good tech remember to ask for them next time. They take reservations which I highly recommend especially on Saturdays.

My usual nail salon, NT nails was chock filled with people today, so I ventured out west to try Mohegan Nail Spa. I guess all women of Omaha had the same idea as I did… warm weather means pedicure time!
Upon entering we were greeted and signed up on the walk-​ins clipboard. While we waited, we picked out our colors on the nail polish wall and sat down to wait our turn.
Around half an hour later we were whisked to the back of the salon, where the water baths were running and waiting for us. Everything started out pretty good and in a standard fashion. My nail technician, Linda (?), trimmed my nails down, filed and buffed my nails, etc. So far so good. The leg massage and callous removal was also very good and probably the best I’ve had in Omaha.
While Linda wasn’t very talkative and didn’t know much english (which bothers me not), she was very distracted talking to her co-​worker who was doing my friend’s pedicure. Now I don’t care if the vietnamese ladies like to chat with each other, its work, they’re conversing, not a big deal to me. BUT, my technician would stop, chat, and not work on my pedicure! So what would have taken her 30 minutes to do took 2x longer because she was distracted.
Another thing was that she stood up to leave on multiple occasions while I was left wondering where the heck she ventured off to. But that even wasn’t that bad. What upset me most was that because I was her last client she was very sloppy with the paint job on my toes. And I couldn’t see them very clearly until I was sitting at the drying fan area where I could closely examine them.
And upon examination, I was horrified. Some nails weren’t even painted entirely, the polish wasn’t coated evenly, too much top coat on the big toe, etc. I had never ever ever had someone paint my toes so badly in my life. (And if you’ve read my previous review about Natalie from NT Nails, this was by far 10x worse than Natalie, and that is saying a lot). I really almost wanted to cry it was that bad.
So I was debating whether or not to flag down the boss and ask them to redo my toes because you know, you never want to be that person. I did eventually though and he agreed.
I apologized to Linda when I went back to her and told her I felt really bad. She didn’t apologize to me though. Linda was visibly upset that I told her boss. but what else was I to do? She confronted me asking why I didn’t say anything when she asked… but it was because I couldn’t see them up close! How the heck can you see from all the way up in the chair?! (They looked okay at first because I choose a very deep iridescent purple color.)
She grabbed «the dreaded brush», hoping to do the quick fix for me by just cleaning up the edges, but clearly we were way past the point of even using the brush. I calmly explained that I would like her to redo them all since they were so poorly done and my gosh was she PISSED. Like, volcano erruption pissed.
She begrudgingly removed the polish with cotton and acetone. But did NOT do the actual painting. The nice lady that helped my friend actually did the painting for me and she did an excellent job.
All in all, I think I was unlucky to have gotten a not so good lady that just slapped on some polish on my toes and called it a day. I am disappointed that my first experience here wasn’t the best, but I am glad that they were at least willing to fix my toes after and they turned out great.
I think I will be back here since the boss is such a nice guy and also there are other workers who are clearly more passionate about their work.
Edit: I won’t be back because my toes chipped after only a day.

Can’t say enough nice things about this place! Always come here with my mom and sister when I’m in town for a pedicure. They do the best job and seem to be very serious about keeping it clean. My mom got awesome nail art done– ornate snowflakes with rhinestones on her toes! Everyone I have had has been chatty and kind– tip them well please! The hot stone leg massage included in the pedicure is the best. Also– if you don’t need a full manicure, a polish change is only $ 6!
