Message from ZAZA Nail Spa

Pamper yourself in this modern, comfortable spa in South Beach
  • Manicures & Pedicures
  • Waxing & Threading
  • Great Place for a Party

Zaza is a "modern nail spa" in every sense, from its sleek, minimalist decor to the innovative treatments it offers, but cold and uninviting it is not. Affable owners Lillian and Rachel personally greet patrons as they arrive, making sure that each guest's experience is punctuated by luxurious touches. We scheduled Zaza's signature mani and pedi, two of the salon's most gratifying treatments. After soaking our feet in a bath of rose petals and aromatherapy oil, the technician reclined our cushy leather chair into an even more comfortable position-perfect for enjoying a long massage and exfoliation with LaLicious' sweet-smelling mango souffle scrub. Our manicure was equally serene, leaving our cuticles/nails in tip-top shape.

chic nail shop  5 Star Rating - World class

Beautiful!!!! They have your typical services - mani's, pedi's, wax & threading. But what sets this place apart from the rest is the fact that they host large groups. It's great! Prices are steep, but who cares when you're pampering yourself!

Below average for the price 2 Star Rating - Wouldn't recommend

I go to Zaza quite often, as it's right across from the building where I work. From outside, I've always been intrigued by the decor and the ambiance. That's why I tried it in the first place. Inside, none of them were disillusioning; the place is quiet, relaxing and clean, but the staff was not what you expect for the price. They look at you as if you were disturbing their discussion upon entering. Twice, my nails were not done in the shape I had asked for (square nails instead of round - although I had specified it --- the second time even drawing it!). The massage was not particularly good - the first neighborhood joint at the corner of your house may be better. Nonetheless, the waxing services are good (for the price). All in all, there are tons of other better nail spas in the city.

Absolute Heaven on Earth 5 Star Rating - World class

What can I say about this place that hasn't been said before? I almost WISH my polish would chip so I could go back before my two week waiting period! The place is so cute, so relaxing, and everyone there is so sweet. All the girls do such a terrific job on my nails, I could probably go more than 2 weeks before going back, but I'm so in love with the treatments that I have to have my fix! It's also great to go to a place where there are familiar faces! Dijon and Michelle are great gals-they bring me my spice tea without me even asking. I love knowing I can get a 5 star treatment without burning holes in my pockets! You may want to make an appointment, though, they get real busy. It's not a hole-in-the-wall "Mimi's Nail" type of place, so don't get your hopes up for a walk-in appointment.

Pros: friendly staff, relaxing atmosphere, great product, VERY sanitary
Cons: parking....yuk

Wouldn't go back, even though its around the corner from me... 1 Star Rating - Unsatisfactory

Well, it looked really lovely inside, but I had anything but a lovely experience. The receptionists were really unfriendly and hardly even said hello, and the woman who did my bikini wax had all the sensitivity of a pro wrestler. She was very efficient and nice, but didn't listen to what I wanted and went over the same area repeatedly (a big no-no for sensitive areas). I felt like I got $20 service for a $50 fee.

Pros: Lovely Ambiance
Cons: Service, price, skill level of staff...

Mediocre work at best 2 Star Rating - Wouldn't recommend

Went here with 2 girlfriends a few days ago and my first impression was "NICE" very clean and modern. The receptionist was nice and friendly. It was a good experience until I got my mani/pedi. IT WAS HORRIBLE! for $75 not including tips all i had was my nails filed, cuticle clean, and polished. Maybe it was because I had short nails to begin with so they couldn't cut/trim it but they played it off as if they were working on my nails by filing it down even shorter! and it HURTS! Nails can only be so short until it feels like they're sanding down your skin and my cuticles didn't look like it cost me $40. Their massage was below average. I will not go back. I like to hop around and check out different nail spa and this by far is mediocre. The chair is comfortable but that's not what I'm paying for. Other than that the place is nice, but that's about it. But you be the judge. $75 to have them buffer and clean your cuticles is it worth it? they didn't even use the clipper on me just a nail file!

Pros: Nice decor
Cons: Unskilled staff and pricy

Best client lunch alternative 5 Star Rating - World class

ZaZa's is a friendly, relaxing environment. The staff is very professional and attentive. It's super clean too! I love to bring client's there for "lunch" and enjoy a great mani/pedi.
