Hiya, I've been thinking about booking for me, my mum and my sister to get our nails done the day of the wedding. Can anyone recommend somewhere near the MGM signature?

    I haven't found many nail places on the strip other than in the hotels at their spas. It is super pricy though. I plan on doing mine before I go to Vegas.

    I think I am going to get mine done before I travel to Vegas as well - I am a big fan of the Shellac 14 day nails and whilst I've found 1 or 2 places who do them near the Strip, I would rather just get them done at my usual place before leaving the UK.

    The places I did find though with good reviews are Diamond Nails and Blowout Dollhouse (hair salon but do nails as well)

      I got mine done with a basic pink gel that lasts 2 weeks before I left home, just in case I didn't have time. Sure enough, once we got to Vegas I just never found the time to have them redone to something fancier like I had planned.   I didn't want to take the time to go to a nail salon when I had so much else going on and so many friends and family to hang out with.

    Polished is a nail place that I believe offers transportation to and from the strip. I've heard mixed reviews on their services, but I think people are generally pretty pleased. I'm not sure how their prices compare to the strip - Polished isn't cheap by any means.

    I was planning on having mine done before we leave the UK with shellac. I am going to try and fit in a test of them as well at some point as I'm not allowed to have long nails or wear nail polish for work! Which is a big bummer! Although I have heard excellent things about people cleaning/digging in the garden with shellac on and it being perfect for at least a week if not longer.

    Shellac is amazing, I have it done for every holiday we go on - it really does last. On holidays where you are obviously not cleaning or washing up all the time as you are not at home, I've had it last 4 weeks with perfect shine!

    One thing I recommend is though, please make sure you research the salon you go to first. You do have to be trained to apply Shellac correctly and a lot of salons don't do the official training courses and buy cheaper versions of the CND products (CND are the owners/creators of it) I went to one near my house once and she dented my nail and didn't use the proper gel on my toenail and it was more like an actual paint! 6 months later I still cannot get it off my toes and am going to have to pay a chiropodist to file my nail levels away :-(

    If you check the CND UK locater it tells you the actual salons who are qualified. Sorry to ramble on :)

    @mrsptobeinvegas thank you so much for the advice! I had seen some of the horror stories on consumer programmes! There are some horrible businesses out there! We are hoping to go away in June for a bit so I think il take the oppertunity then to try it out
