MiniLuxe Back Bay (31 Newbury)

MiniLuxe Newbury St is my little sanctuary for perfect nails. ✨ LiMei is truly an artist, my nails have never looked or felt healthier. Her attention to detail and care in every step makes such a difference, and you can tell she genuinely loves what she does. Anthony, the manager, embodies hospitality ; professional, kind, and always creating such a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Every visit feels effortless from start to finish, and scheduling is always seamless. An elevated, relaxing experience every single time. Highly recommend if you love beautiful, healthy nails and exceptional service. 💅

Unfortunately, I was highly disappointed with my experience at MiniLuxe a few weeks ago. A friend of mine referred me because she regularly goes here and loves it, so I assume this must have just been a one-off. I got a classic gel manicure and, even with the referral discount, it was more expensive than any other local place I go to for gel nails (usually, it's $35 + tip). I get that people pay for the cleanliness (and it was pristine in there) so I figured I'd try it anyway, but the manicure was poorly done. The prep and aftercare were fine, but my nail tech did not put polish close to my nail beds at all. As a result, my freshly done nails looked like they'd already grown out at least 1-2 weeks. The photo I took was not even 2 days after my appointment. I'll be sticking to my local spot from now on.

Always professional, efficient and comfortable. Maintains the highest cleanliness standards and provides a welcoming environment to all. Amy, the tech who has been my pedicurist for a number of years, does an outstanding job. She makes my feet feel and look fabulous.

I recently had a gel manicure that included a Halloween-themed nail design at Miniluxe on Newbury Street. My manicurist was Jenny, who did an EXCELLENT job of doing my nails! She was so meticulous and made sure that I liked every detail. My nails came out even better than I expected, and Jenny was so incredibly patient considering how detailed the design I wanted was! Everything came out perfect, and I love my Halloween nails! I have been going to MiniLuxe now for many years, and each time I get my nails done, I'm so happy with the result.

I got builder gel which I have been trying to find for so long in Boston and it was amazing! My nails looks absolutely perfect! I am so happy to have finally found a trusted place to always get my nails done at. The salon was extremely clean, beautiful, and chic. My nail artist Li Mei was incredible and was so gentle with my cuticles. I couldn't recommend this place more!
