Finding a place in Hoboken that does acrylic nails well has been hard. The last place I went to was horrible and I didn't want to have to schlep into the city every few weeks just to get my nails done. After some research and reading a bunch of reviews on 718 I decided to give them a try. I've been going for several months now and have been very pleased! Tip: make your appointment well in advance! They book up quickly :) read more

Every year or on special occasions I go to have my nails done. I don't have an issue with the nail salon but I do want to give a special shout out to Cristal a nail technician. The minute I walked to the door, she just gave a poor customer service. Arelys I originally requested and got her instead. I hope moving forward the Manager can talk to Cristal about improving her customer service. One of the staff members even asked if I was pregnant on my birthday. On top of it, Cristal made a rude comment in Spanish. Moving forward, if I have a poor customer service, no tip period. Throughout my interaction with her, she did not help me with my bags I had in process. All the others are great read more

After asking around, I got one great recommendation for a nail salon in Hoboken--718 Beauty Bar was fantastic! When I walked in at 4pm, they were happy to take me as a walk-in. My nail artist Louisa was so sweet and helpful, and did an amazing job! I came here to do a trial for my wedding nails, and I was so pleasantly surprised. I will DEFINITELY come back before my wedding! read more

718 Beauty Bar - Blue French gel manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

Most unprofessional, unpleasant experience ever! my daughter scheduled a facial and manicure. The facial provider didn't show up, they didn't inform us in advance, so came for nothing. The nail tech, destroyed my daughter's nails and skin around them. Not only are her nails damaged, her hands were throbbing when she left the shop. I highly recommend that you don't waste your time or money. Save your hands, go elsewhere! read more

I got a gel manicure here, it was a bit sloppy, the edges wore off quickly and they cut one of my cuticles.

I had their specialty honey pedicure on a Saturday as a same day appointment. They were very nice as well as offered champagne, coffee, or water. The environment is really clean and beautiful. I thought they did a great job with my Pedicure as well. It's been two weeks and it still looks great. The pedicure included bath salts, massage, lotion, foot mask, and a thorough pedicure. I believe it was 65$ which is fair. They did not rush me either during the pedicure. The only negative is they don't have a huge selection or non gel nail polish. read more

My rating is more around the experience vs my nails. I got a gel X fill + pedicure and both came out beautifully. My 3 stars (vs 4 or 5) is that my appointment took ~3 hours + they moved my appointment without telling me. I booked an appointment online and they pushed it back 25 min without calling me and asking. I got there at the new time and then still had to wait ~25 min for my service. I acknowledge how thorough they were + the attention to detail doesn't go unnoticed, but 3 hours for a simple service (which I can do in 60 min at home with 2 girls) is excessive. read more

I had one of the best manicures seriously EVER here. I got a normal manicure and pedicure and didn't see any chips for at least 4 or 5 days. I came on a Tuesday after work and took advantage of their $30 mani/pedi special on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Definitely recommend you make an appointment because I am not sure if they often have time for walk ins. This spot is so wonderful, relaxing and clean. When you arrive, they sanitize the bottom of your shoes and have hand sanitizer for you. They offer you a drink and to take your coat when you sit which I thought was such a wonderful touch to help you settle down and start relaxing. Their pedicure chairs are basically just big comfy armchairs which I love because I rarely use the message settings anyway on typical salon chairs. I saw Adis for my mani and pedi and she was incredible. So sweet and friendly and thorough. I have a great pedicure that has no chips at all after a week and my feet are still baby soft. And I already raved about how great my manicure is holding up. I It was a busy day for them but I never felt rushed and they made sure both my hands and feet were ready before I left. Besides everything else, they have a decent polish selection and a kind owner. I can't recommend this spa enough! read more

718 Beauty Bar is my go-to nail salon in Hoboken! I've been going here for several years for great gel manicures and pedicures at a reasonable price, and I recently started going to Dani for fun and creative nail art. The vibe of the nail salon is fun, relaxed, and welcoming -- when I come in, I'm asked if I want something to drink (tea, champagne, water, etc.) and am often asked what I want to watch on Netflix -- and I love feeling like I'm coming to hang out with friends whenever it's time to get my nails done. I couldn't recommend more highly! read more

*By appointment only* I made an appointment for a Tuesday at noon. Originally, I was going to do a regular pedi and gel mani but then some of my nails broke, so I just decided to do a regular mani. I also remembered seeing a sign for a $30 regular mani/pedi special on Tuesdays/Wednesdays so I just went with that. Although not advertised, I believe there's another Tues/Wed special for a regular pedi/gel mani for $47 and it seemed like most people were doing that. Color options are a bit limited, so it did take me a minute to decide on a color. Both services were fine. I ruined two nails on the way out but they were understanding and fixed it for me. The place is small, but it's clean and a cute place to go and treat yourself. Plus they accept Venmo! read more

718 Beauty Bar - Nail Salons Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

I received a gift card to 718 so I came in as a walk-in. They let me know that they were too busy, but I should make an appointment. I made an appointment for a few weeks out. When I came for my appointment, they let me know my appointment had been released to another client. I was about 10 minutes late, but I was within their 15 minute courtesy window. I spoke to the manager and she apologized about the situation, and was supposed to follow-up about rescheduling, but she never called to reschedule. I called the salon this morning and no answer (no one picked up). I'm very disappointed with the service here. I'm now trying to get the cash value of my gift card, or have it refunded, so I can get my nails done elsewhere. Can't recommend this place given my experience. read more

0/0 worst place. SAVE YOUR TIME AND MONEY The terrible service started from the moment I called this was my second time coming but first time doing manicure because I normally used to go somewhere else but they moved... I called and booked a Russian Manicure + Regular pedi.... For 2 days before my appointment even happened I kept getting different emails with new times it started at 3:00 pm and by Friday night a day before my appointment they have put me already to 3:45pm, 45 min further than my original appt with out any call informing me or asking if that would be okay for me... which I find absurd but seems to be a regular practice to them since I saw another person at same day complaining about the same thing. Upon arriving to my appointment I was assigned a nail tech and I don't know if she was having a bad day or what but terrible attitude , energy and aggressive she was so hard with the drill that I was in pain and discomfort thru the whole time.... She clearly didn't know what is a Russian manicure and how it is supposed to be done... she was clearly annoyed that she had to removed my previous gel from my old nail tech and at times my nail hurt of how hard she was on them my nails specially thumbs were bruised from how hard she was being it felt very uncalled for.... The only "Russian manicure " part I got was getting my cuticle removed but material applied , polish technique wasn't existent ,they're extremely unprofessional I could hear her nagging with another nail tech from my seat about me having the work of another nail tech in my nails.... I went on to pedicure and I don't know if she was a new or what but definitely not experienced.... All my photos is same day as soon I got home..... my pedicure looks like it got painted by someone with their eyes covered ... they rushed me out even tho I been there since 3:30 because they're closing at 6 and sent me with some wrap on my toes which clearly wasn't ready yet This was my last time to ever come to this place I rather go all the way to NYC and get done there .... read more

Les than two days later and my big toe is painful and swollen because the nail tech dug into the cuticle and ripped out a piece of skin. Unfortunately cannot recommend this salon at all. Now 7 days after visiting this salon my thumb acrylic fell off, and my thumb nail is green with fungus. read more

Best nail salon in Hoboken, without a doubt. I have tried quite a few places around town since moving here 2.5 years ago, but ever since I first tried 718 Beauty Bar in the spring, I keep coming back. The environment is super relaxing and beautiful. They have different drinks they offer and a couple TVs playing baking shows on Netflix which is my new favorite way to unwind during a pedicure haha. The online booking service is super convenient and even offers their weekday specials (Tuesday/Wednesdays you can get a manicure/pedicure combo for great prices!) I have been seeing Yuli for the past few months and am very appreciative of the time and care she puts into my crazy manicure requests! I have included a couple photos of her work below and love them. Both are gel manicure with full nail art (goes for about $65 if your natural nails.) She even helped me when I broke one of my natural nails and was able to fix it without needing an acrylic. I have also done regular manicures that lasted 2+ weeks -- super impressive considering I am constantly washing my hands at work and normal manicures don't always last for me. My neighbor swears by the gel silk extensions (I think that's the name?) so I will have to try them in the fall or winter when my nails are typically shorter. Will update the review when I try them! read more

I'm very picky when it comes to nail salons, so a 5 star review is high praise! I had heard great things about 718 beauty bar and finally decided to try it out for a manicure tonight. I made an appointment a few days in advance for a Friday evening manicure. I was glad I had a reservation because they were busy! When I arrived I was promptly greeted and told to pick out a color. They had a nice selection of gel and regular polishes. The space is beautifully decorated with a cute greenery wall and comfy pedicure chairs. I walked in and instantly felt relaxed! They also offer champagne, water, and coffee to patrons. It was so nice to have a glass of champagne while I got my nails done! The nail technicians were very gentle and did a great job. I really hate when I get a manicure and the manicurist is too rough on my cuticles, so I was happy this wasn't the case here. The salon is also very clean which is always appreciated. Can't wait to come back for my next mani and pedi! read more

I've been coming here since 2022 and have always had great manicures by all of the stylists i've seen. It's clean, quiet, and I don't feel rushed out of the salon like I do at other places. They take their time, listen to what you're looking for, and it's a relaxing experience. I love that you can schedule an appointment online and choose your manicurist! I had a minor issue recently with my gel polish fading after a few days and reached out. They were kind enough to reach out, fix the issue, and let me know they would be reaching out to the manufacturer of the polish to resolve it as well. I appreciate their transparency and help with the issue, as some business owners won't even take the time to address something like this. read more

This is a long overdue review but 718 is hands down the BEST nail salon in Hoboken. Not only because of their beautiful work but also because of their amazing customer service. Every time I come to 718, I am treated like a VIP and continuously impressed by my experience. I have been coming to 718 for a little over two years and have had wide array of services (regular, gel, dip, UV gel, pedicures) and my nails always come out beautiful. Silvia is my go to girl and favorite nail tech, she is a perfectionist and does an absolutely amazing job every single time. That being said, I've probably had services performed by all the nails techs at one point or another and have always been pleased with the final product. They have also taken great precautions during the pandemic (e.g. temperature checks, sanitizing bottom of shoes and hands before entering, masks, plastic shields), which made me feel safe and reassured after my first appointment during COVID. One of my favorite additions to their services was their monthly unlimited mani pedis membership! I always enjoyed my weekly mani pedi as my little treat to myself and it is such a great deal! I also cannot say enough wonderful things about the owner, Fay. She is classy, kind, and goes above and beyond to make her customers happy. She 100% should serve as an inspiration to women business owners in the community. I am beyond sad that I will have to find a new nail salon when I relocate to DC at the end of the month. The ladies at 718 have truly created an oasis in the middle of uptown and I know where my first stop will be the next time I am in Hoboken. read more

718 Beauty Bar - Dip manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

I really wouldn't recommend this place. I went in for a dip manicure last week. Picked my color and then was told they didn't have enough of this polish to do my manicure. They had veryyy limited options for nail colors so i couldn't even get something similar. A week after my manicure and half of my nails are chipped. I won't be going back. read more

I was looking for a new place to get a regular manicure. This place exceeded my expectations! $15 mani. Veronica was so detailed and took her time through everything. 2 coats OPI polish, no chips, solid color. Normally I wouldn't let them cut my nails short and file them so squared across, but I ended up liking it. They don't have a huge selection of regular polish, but that's okay for someone as indecisive as me. It's a small place and by appointment only so it wasn't crazy crowded or busy, which I love. They have a good pop playlist on and Netflix shows on the TVs with captions. The counter girl was so sweet and nice. They also have a drink menu! Would definitely go back. read more

This place is fantastic, I think I found my new salon! They have you wait outside till ready and then They take your temperature, ask covid health related questions, sanitize your hands and bottom of feet. Everyone in masks. They have a special for a mani pedi for $30 during the week and even offer teacher discounts! The mani and pedi was great, it's 3days later and my hands still haven't chipped. They even give you rose to go! Super friendly service and cute place. Can't recommend enough! read more

I wanted to love it based on the reviews and it is cute. Veronica was friendly and did a great job shaping and painting my toes. However, I added on the callous remover and it did absolutely nothing...not even one shred of dead skin came off. That's not Veronica's fault--the tools and product were super ineffective. I feel like I left with the same callouses just more moisturized. The pedicure chairs are uncomfortable and the foot stool is always wobbling and nearly falling off. it's not pleasant. The gel manicure was just ok. read more

The best of the best! I first came here to get my nails done for my brother's wedding last year and they did an incredible classic manicure and pedicure - the manicure lasted a solid two weeks and the pedicure over a month. I recently decided to re-instate having my nails done regularly and popped in for the $43 manicure/pedicure combo (it might be cheaper on specials days earlier in the week). I did a dark navy and could not believe the manicure again lasted for 2 weeks! I have now seen three different technicians and my manicure is lasting for 2 weeks plus, amazing! I only get a pedicure if I am switching up my nail color and want them to match - over a month and it has never been out of necessity! The salon itself is cozy and has a lovely community feel. They also send coupons and accept apple pay and venmo! The online booking system makes everything even more convenient. Love 718! read more

I OFFICIALLY HAVE A NEW HOBOKEN NAIL SALON!!! First of all, they were able to get me in for a last-minute appointment for a UV gel manicure, which alone is hard to come by! Since it was my first time at the salon, I was a little nervous because I was looking to get very detailed spring nails. YASMERY did an AMAZING job!! I can't talk highly enough of her precision and attention to detail. My nails came out absolutely perfect and I can't wait to pick out my next set for my next visit! Also, the overall vibe of the beauty bar is fun and welcoming which makes it that much better. I could tell that all of the technicians are very skilled, so you can't go wrong with a mani or Pedi from any of them! read more

This has been my go-to nail salon for the last year+ and it's because of the quality of the service. I go to Silvia and have been doing gel manis with her (though have seen others at the salon e.g., Lakenia and Arely who have also been fantastic). My nails consistenly last 2-3 weeks (my nails grow fast so 2 weeks preferred but 3 weeks are totally doable). She's helped me grow my natural nails out and they're always in great condition. Highly recommend! read more

Update: Mary, the owner, reached out to me personally and offered to either fix the set with I have with a different nail tech or refund me for the service. I chose to get a refund only bc my nails are not the strongest and taking it off right away and putting it back on again wouldn't be smart. I will, however, give them my business again sometime in the future bc they have excellent costumer service and that is what makes or breaks a business! Also, I failed to mention that Mary did my pedicure and it was beautiful! Positives: the only reason I gave two stars instead of one is their wonderful customer service. They are soo sweet and I really wanted to like this place. I thought I had found my nail salon. It's cute inside and the ig pictures make it seem like they do amazing work. THEY DON'T! Idk who did those nails in the pics but it is not the same person who did mine Cons: the heat was off on an extremely cold day. The lady at the front apologized but it never actually got warmer. I got extensions with dip. It was my first time getting extensions but I've done dip before. My nails look awful. I can't really describe it besides "it looks like someone just learning did them". Look at the many pics I took for reference. I'm so sad bc I'm stuck with these until they grow out and I feel like I wasted my hard earned money. The shape is AWFUL even though I showed them a pic of a simple short almond nail. The application is worse. I'm so so sad. read more

Not bad, but not great. I heard such good things about this place from a few girls at my gym and decided to book with Silvia for the $80 mani/pedi special. They were very sweet and offered me a mimosa, but they barely removed the calluses on my pedi so my heels are sort of meh two days later... and today I was just getting ready to go to a night out, not even doing anything strenuous and my entire gel nail chips! On top of that, I asked for just a basic design on my nail and they didn't disclose it was $25 extra dollars. I definitely would've stuck with basic color had I known because it literally ended up being $120 with tip. I originally wasn't going to write a review, but for such an expensive gel mani, I can't believe my cuticles look the way they do 2 days later and my nail chipped. Maybe you will have better luck than me. read more

718 Beauty Bar - Chipped gel nail... 2 days later. Paid a whopping $25 extra dollars for this design too. - Nail Salons Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

EDIT: after this review was originally posted, the owner, Michelle, promptly contacted me about fixing my nails. She also explained I was working with a nail tech new to SNS powder. I appreciate her willingness to correct my experience. This is the worst manicure I have ever received. I was the only one in the salon with 2 women who spoke no English, which wouldn't have been an issue if my nails didn't look so poorly that I couldn't even communicate that they needed fixing. I received SNS powder but the manicurist couldn't figure out the top coat - she would put it on, touch my nails, smudge them, then try and do another top coat on top of the smudge, until they realized they needed to use another coat that left my nails with no shine, completely smudged. This happened 3 TIMES. I showed them pictures of the shape of nail I wanted (coffin) and was given blank stares in return. They also could not understand that I wanted my nails to be cut shorter. All of this would have been acceptable if the powder did not end up so incredibly misshapen. My nails are lumpy and crooked and have never looked this terrible. read more

I've been to this salon one other time and my nails were alright due to the sticker that was placed on my nail was completely messed up, however the shape was perfect. This time around, honestly, I won't be coming back. Positives: Everyone there was extremely nice, including the owner. Cons: I asked for a design that I found from THEIR website and my nails look nothing like the photo. The shape is not square and not only that but I paid $74! I understand that I chose a different color than the dark blue shown. However, that should not alter the design all together. I can't justify paying that amount for a lack luster job. read more

I've heard so many good things about 718 beauty bar since it's been under new management and have tried just about every nail salon in Hoboken so figured I'd give it a shot. I made a last minute appointment on-line for a gel manicure which couldn't have been an easier process, instantly confirmed and I was lucky they had the time I was looking for available. I was greeted at the door and immediately asked if I wanted some water by the lovely, Zee, my nail technician. I don't typically get a gel manicure mainly because I'm not fond of filing down my nails and the look of the "thicker" polish but with vacation coming up it was necessary. Zee could not have been more meticulous ensuring that I liked the shape and length of my nails prior to doing a thin layer of polish each time and taking so much care in what she was doing. I was in and out and with a beautiful gel manicure. The place itself is absolutely adorable with very cozy looking pedicure chairs and cute little foot baths and exceptionally clean! Prices were consistent with what you'd find just about anywhere but they have specialty services like CBD pedicures and services that you can specify time 60 minute pedicure, yes please! I will most certainly be back and I recommend making an appointment as the word gets out I'm sure they'll be pretty packed! read more

I specifically booked Araceli based off her reviews, but 2 hrs before my appt I got a notification that my tech had been changed. Annoying, but I had no issue with this. I got dip extensions with gel color on Thursday and by Friday the gel was already peeling off the top of one of my nails. I called the salon, I went in and they fixed it. However, 2 days later another 2 nails started to peel, one of them so badly that the entire gel color peeled off.

I had an awesome experience at 718! I had heard a lot about the CBD mani/pedis they offer so decided to give this place a shot since I'd received a gift card for my bday. Had an appt with Jenine for a full set of acrylics, I opted for their vegan/gel polish and I love the color! Jenine is kind and extremely meticulous. She took her time and made sure I was satisfied every step along the way. While she was hard at work, someone came in for a pedicure and added the CBD. Jenine asked me if I had ever tried it and asked if I would like to add it and I happily obliged - it's an additional $15. If I wasn't already super relaxed, I was SUPER chillin while Jenine was perfecting my new set of nails. Once she was done polishing my nails, she gave me a hand massage with some nicely scented CBD cream. Overall, I had a super pleasant experience and would happily visit 718 for a nice afternoon of pampering! Thanks for making my day off even better! read more
