Builder gel French

I've been coming to Ambient nail spa for a almost a year and they have never once done a service that wasn't incredible. They are quick to get you serviced, every staff member is very talented. I always leave very satisfied.

My third time here. Booked my first appointment through ClassPass, I was serviced by Lee who paid attention to detail, made sure I was satisfied with everything and did not rush the job. He also gave me the most satisfying back massage! I think he does a better job massaging your back than your feet but hey that can just be me. I love their assortment of colors and they keep their space simple but clean. My 2nd time here I had a female whose name I cannot recall but she did a pretty good jobs with my French pedi too- it really did look great! I got compliments everywhere. I love that their pedis include the hot heel gel and the exfoliating scrub- other salons tend to charge more for those touches. This is slowly becoming my go-to salon. I was fortunate to get Lee again for my third visit and he did not disappoint. I really need to remember to come here for a back massage by him once in a while.

Dip manicure, red apple

I live right around the corner, so I decided to try this new nail salon since it just opened. Great service, very nice staff! Very clean and well decorated. Prices are not too bad in comparison to other nail salons in the area. I got a dip manicure with Ella, she was great! I got the red apple color. I love how my nails look and I'll definitely be back!

Pearly pink gel color

This a new salon that opened 3 months ago so I wanted to check it out. The space is nicely decorated, organized, clean and spacious. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. I came in for a gel manicure and Vicky did my nails. She was fast and precise. I've had bad experiences with previous nail techs who could not shape my nails symmetrically but she did it very nicely. Overall, I would come here again!

Gel manicure with a design

I had a great experience at ambient nails. So good that I will be returning. My nails were done by Anna and she was so patient and really cared about the result of the nails. I appreciate her for that!! Clean and good environment.

This place is magical. They soaked my powder manicure off super quickly and gave me the pedi of a lifetime. My toes went from 80 years old to 8 years old. Honesty my feet have never felt like this in my adult life. They were also super kind to everyone who walked in. This will be my new spot.

Gel pedicure
Whitney W.

I just got a gel pedicure done here and I'm not happy with the outcome.. Look at how far away the paint starts from my cuticle. It looks like I've had this for more than a month but it's only been 2 days

Gel tips and gold glitter gel

This place is great, especially the pedicure options and massages they offer, super friendly with great selection of colours for gels.

Full set

Leo did a beautiful job on my full set. He took his time, shaped them perfectly, an even gave me a nice shoulder massage while waiting for the gel to set one last time. Thank you so much for my best NY nail experience so far. This Cali girl is grateful ms

Very attentive with some nice little "extras." Tina speaks very little English so it was a quiet, relaxing experience.

It truly creates a relaxing atmosphere. However, I've noticed that the quality of the mani & pedi has declined over the years, which has made me hesitant to return, even though it's in the most convenient location for me. These days when I returned, it's just for last minute color change to avoid more damage. I referred a friend to join me for a mani/pedi once, and she also mentioned that while the ambiance is great, but the owners should get their own mani & pedi done by their technicians, which I completely agree with. While I usually don't like getting my cuticles pushed or cut, I really appreciate that they respected that preference. However, when it comes to removing polish, it's done very recklessly with a lack of attention to detail. On several occasions, they've scraped the skin around the nails--sometimes cutting it to the point where it bled and required a bandage. When I mentioned this to the hostess after she asked for feedback, she dismissed it by saying I have sensitive skin. Since when is it normal for skin to be scraped during a mani/pedi? Additionally, I've had gel mani here twice in a row, and the technician over-shaved to the point where my nails ended up paper-thin that I have to ask the technician to apply extra coats to make up for it. One time, the technician even touched my skin with the machine that is used to shave the gel polish off. I've also had my skin scraped during pedicures, which is concerning. Every time I get a gel mani, within two weeks, the polish would start to lift on the cuticle side, which shows a lack of precision during the application. My friend got a regular mani & pedi here, and one of her nails chipped within a day. While I still love the atmosphere and the owners, the decline in the quality of the services, especially regarding polish removal, nail care, and attention to detail, has made me hesitant on coming back.

As a result, my nail was damaged during the process. It's crucial to remove gel X correctly to prevent damage, and I don't understand how they can offer this service without knowing how to remove it properly. They also didn't even try to provide a discount due to the damage, which reflects awful customer service

The interior design of the space is what pulled my attention when walking up 9th Ave. It is chic yet accessible and never approaches being or feeling gaudy. Very clean look (and space). Great color palate used. Very comfortable chairs. Good use of white space accentuated with green angular paint and golden decals and other ornamentations, all done minimally and with purposeful placement. Carmen (my nail tech) made good efforts and took obvious care to give me a nice buff manicure, all for only $27 (+ a small amount of tax). No nips or cuts. No pain. Textbook technique. Picked up well on when I wanted to zen out to the aura of the space and the well-curated spa playlist vs when I was open to a little nail tech kiki. Loved the sugar scrub they use for the hand massage. I take ownership for not getting the pre-cuticle work nail soak as part of the provided service. IMO, if a nail salon doesn't automatically incorporate the soak into your mani, you as the customer should speak up when the softening gel is pulled out and before it is applied. If they don't offer it? That's another thing. But I didn't test those waters and cannot speak to Nail Me Right (goodness gravy I love the business name!). So, keep in mind if the soak is your thing. They were very accommodating from the moment I arrived until I left. So I have a hunch this request wouldn't be a problem. Same with the end result. You as the customer are responsible for checking your nails / hands / feet / whatever before ending the appointment. I was late for my next appointment and did not, later seeing I would've like a little extra work done where the far end of nail edges meets the finger and a shinier buff applied. Again, I am quite sure Carmen would have accommodated had I done my part and spoken up before leaving. Still, I woke up the next morning to those slight extra bits naturally working themselves out (which points to the moisturizing measures NMR applies being of good quality), and my hand looking nice. I plan to pop in next time I'm in the area and in the market for some nail / hand / foot love, and hope you'll consider doing the same to support this family and what they're working to bring to the neighborhood.
