I love getting my nails done here!! The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. I used to get gel nails but they would always leave my nails in bad shape, thin and would easily break. I switched to dip which was better but sometimes my nail would still chip. Lynn introduced me to the TAP nail and it is AMAZING! I was hesitant at first but it is wayyyy better! It feels so much lighter like I don’t have anything on my nails. My nails feel much healthier! I will definitely continue to do TAP instead, it also seems less harsh to my nails. I also broke my big toe nail and part of the nail was gone so it was uneven. Lynn was able to use the TAP nail to make my toe nail look like new! You can’t even tell that the nail is broken. If you are looking for a friendly and highly experienced nail salon this place is the best! 💅

I just visited JLT Nail Lounge in La Quinta for the first time with my 9-year-old daughter, and we had a wonderful experience from start to finish. Don was fantastic—friendly, attentive, and made the appointment feel effortless for her. I also saw Kelly, and she was sweet as can be. She did a superb mani/pedi for me, and she took the time to make sure everything looked great. It is very clean and welcoming, with comfortable massage chairs that made the whole experience relaxing. It’s easy to see they care about both the salon and the guests’ comfort. Highly recommending JLT for a family-friendly, quality nail visit in La Quinta. We’ll definitely be back!

The best dip powder set in the valley. I’ve tried so many and this place does not disappoint. My go to nail tech’s name is David. He does a great job!

This facility is clean and the staff is professional. Lynn is so amazing!! She recommended a Tap manicure and it was wonderful! Non toxic or any smell either. My nails look nice and natural/thin, but feel hard and healthy. I have found my spot. Highly recommend!
