About Bella Vida Nail Spa & Alterations
On S Church St in Burlington, Bella Vida Nail Spa & Alterations is a nail salon that takes walk-ins for acrylic full sets, with clients seated right away. Two-week fill-in appointments follow as a check-in after the initial set, and manicures and pedicures run as separate services customers book on a recurring basis. Manicures are finished under a gel lamp. The salon opens daily, and the staff greet regular customers by name.

Customer Review Summary
Pedicures draw the most repeat praise, with several reviewers calling them a favorite reason to return and one describing an acrylic full set and two week fill-in as consistent go-tos. Custom nail art also comes up repeatedly, including a freestyled design and a valentine's day theme, alongside a hair coloring visit praised as looking natural. Reviewers describe the atmosphere as friendly and welcoming, several noting staff remember them by name, and one mentioning a technician who stayed two hours past closing to finish a set. Against this, one detailed account stands apart: a reviewer reports a rough pedicure and manicure that left cuts and bleeding, a burning reaction under the gel lamp, and later a toe infection, with the technician described as dismissive; the salon did issue a full refund. Most other reviewers report no such issues and cite fair prices and friendly service as reasons for returning.

“****Second update - Bella Vida did try to rectify the situation by issuing me a full refund**** ***Update, my toe is now infected*** Worst manicure and pedicure I’ve ever had!! The pedicure was extremely rough and not relaxing at all. The technician cut my big toe badly enough that it started bleeding, and it is still painful hours later. The same thing happened during my manicure—my cuticles were cut so deeply that they also began bleeding. When I placed my hands under the gel lamp, it burned intensely and I immediately pulled my hand out. The nail technician laughed, which was inconsiderate and unprofessional. When I later mentioned being cut, she became defensive and denied responsibility, claiming the cuts were already there. While a couple of the other technicians were kind enough to apply Neosporin to my cuts, that was the extent of the response. I was not offered a discount or any form of compensation, and I honestly regret still paying. My daughter also had her nails and toes done, and the polish has already fallen off two of her fingers. Overall, the experience felt careless and unprofessional, including the appearance and conduct of some of the staff. I would not recommend this salon.”
