Came into the salon for first time, got a full-set (gel-x) and pedicure. Winnie was my nail tech she was great took her time got in my feet it needed some real love (callas). Never had gel-x set before i am obsessed with them a new fan.
I was given a $30 gift card for Christmas, which is enough for a basic manicure plus the tip. The location is well staffed and uses single use tools for cleanliness . The young lady behind the desk whose name I did not get , did an amazing service- while manicure is simple, I appreciate that she took her time. The atmosphere was calm and quiet. 10/10 manicure.
This is what I asked for and this is what I got. The nail tech did an amazing job. These are soft gel nails and they always look beautiful for three weeks. Thank you so much for my birthday nails
The person who did my SNS manicure left gaps where you can see my nail. They also charged me an extra $5 without telling me due to my nails being long, which I never heard of before nor experienced at this establishment. Lastly, they said I had no points on my reward card even though I've been using it for the past few months. Will not be coming back or be referring this place.
I've gone there a couple of times for SNS dip manicure, and my experiences have been different each time. Mari was good, as was Rosie. One time I went and the owner did my nails. She was rushed and frazzled and it wasn't relaxing at all. Yesterday, Melody did the SNS. My nails looked ok when she finished, but once I left and took a good look at them, she did an awful job. Besides being too thick, there is dip residue under my nail edges (didn't take the time to clean it off) and stuck to my fingertips. Also dried dip powder around my cuticles. Totally sloppy job for $55. I don't plan to go back any more. Time to move on.
This place is beautiful and the staff is friendly! I've been several time and the experience is always lovely and relaxing but the products they use are the worst!!! It's really disappointing-- they use the lowest quality shellac so after about a week it peels off. It's not the hard long lasting shellac-- it's rubbery and peels at the edges. I went in on Wednesday to get a regular mani and pedi. They told me the only bubble bath they had was in the "long lasting" polish and would cost two dollars more. It's Saturday and 4 of my 10 nails look awful. The polish is falling off!!!! I got a pedi too and they look good. $48 (not including tip) is way too expensive for for a regular mani pedi that doesn't even last a week. This place is brand new so I hope they tighten up so I can go back.
So I recently moved to the UWS and I've been looking for a salon in walkable distance that didn't make my wallet bleed. I tried this place out and I got a stunning dip powder gel manicure-- but nothing comes without a struggle. My first tech did a good job, but I guess the brush at the end made my nails bumpy and rough to the touch. I didn't notice because I was not touching my still-drying nails, but the owner comes over and exclaims that she had to fix them for me. I really appreciated the attention to detail, but I will say I was disappointed that the first technician was going to send me out of salon with rough nails. After 2 hours, I finally left the salon. It was a long process, but the results were good and I will be coming back! In total for powder removal and powder manicure it was $48 with tax (tip not included)
Had a great experience here! You can add the tip to the card too! I got a package: mani, pedi and a 20 min massage. I loved every second! The pedicure water is contained in a plastic bag so no germs from previous customers. The manicure includes paraffin in gloves and again very clean. Everything is sterilized so no germs cross over. Tina is amazing! And the overall experience was wonderful!
Just another ordinary nail spot with typical service and work quality -- the kind you expect nothing from really other than to walk out with semi decent paint job.. like it's a spot where you drop off your money to fund their business and that is the objective of this typical type of nail shop I speak off. I'm giving 1 star only because the lady did a pretty decent job on my calluses, by some miracle because she really didn't do much. But... Even my paint job was ridiculous. I repainted my nails myself the very following morning with the same color and did a much better job. They did not clean around my nails for excess polish so yah... take a look at my 2 photos. The polish was a sheer color and she did 2 coats, leaving them streaky. I didn't bother to ask for another coat because I was already done with the place. I also redid my toes since I was at it because they were streaky and I could not understand why because my bottle of the same polish does NOT come out streaky at all (and this was at 3 coats). They'll start to chit-chat in the middle of your foot massage and then go into the typical punching of your leg and foot with a closed fist when they're no longer able to concentrate on the work at hand. Something about that has always intrigued me -- there's some sort of correlation between the punching and lack of concentration. Everything is very typical - from rushing you with you to select your color, suggesting colors ("This one is pretty!" - please don't insult people like that), to filling your foot tub with water as soon as you announce you want a pedicure -- and leaving you to dip you feet in what is now luke warm water 7 min later and once you have been forced to JUST PICK A COLOR. Speaking of feet, if I am paying for a service like this, I'd love to enjoy JUST maybe like 5 minutes of it. Is that way too much to ask for? Maybe just let me soak my feet for 5 minutes and allow the skin to relax before you get started? I literally dipped each foot before she slapped the callus remover on them. Since the lotion kept absorbing during my foot/leg rub, she pulled out cuticle oil and used it. Ah. Yah. Women do back massages and it was a total turnoff. They were half-assing it, staring around in all directions, facing some random way while they had an elbow in someone's back. They have packages you can choose from but they had not thought out well combination possibilities. For instance, I wanted a spa pedi but a regular mani, and there was no option. There was a spa pedi and gel mani that came with a back massage also for something like $62, but I ended up paying much more than that for a spa pedi and only regular mani with NO massage. As I kept asking if I could just do a regular mani with the available package instead of gel, they kept saying "but still good price, you get 20% off still" (since everything is 20% off for the opening promo) and I kept saying "WHY would I do that?!" Finally I just gave up and went with whatever. My cost AFTER the discount was the cost of the package that would have given me a gel mani AND A MASSAGE. Why is that so hard to understand?! So now as my water is super luke warm, I ask to add some hot water. Since plastic liners are used (great thing, thank you), she's not able to drain so she scoops out some water to make room for hot water, dumping it into the unoccupied tub right next to me. She did not rise that tub after. 15 min later, they seat a girl in that chair next to me, still never having rinsed that tub from my water she dumped there. Since I have no foot conditions and a liner was being used in her tub too, I struggled with speaking up or just letting it go. I didn't speak up in the end because I was just already completely done and couldn't deal with it. My lady who dumped the water to begin with witnessed the entire thing, she was there the whole time, never stepped away, she knew what she did and what was happening. I won't be returning. Very typical. I knew I was done with the place as soon as they rushed me with the color selection, tried to suggest colors and filled my tub to wait for me. No thanks. Oh and the 1.3 second foot dip and menu options... Nope.

Very disappointing experience. I arrived at 6:50pm (they close at 8pm) and felt rushed from the moment I walked in. I asked for gel removal followed by a regular manicure, but the technician only removed the top gel polish and left the underlying gel layer, then painted regular polish over it. The result was streaky. When I pointed it out, she insisted it was just the polish and added multiple thick coats and a top coat, but it still looked streaky and chunky. They also require you to tip before your nails are painted so I tipped 20% and was charged for both gel removal and a regular manicure, which made the experience even more frustrating given the result. read more

Manicures by Kathy are the best. I opt for acrylic over my own nails because I work with my hands and they can get rough looking. Kathy always leaves my hands looking great and me feeling superb. read more

Sloppy and rude, don't waste your money. I got a regular manicure and pedicure and it truly wasn't worth it. I asked for my nails to be evened out and said it was okay to cut them to even them out but this resulted with my entire nail being clipped off. I had to stop my manicurist multiple times because she was digging into my nail bed. I addressed some concerns with the manager and showed her where my nails were ragged and my skin around the nails were still ragged (even though I asked my manicurist to trim all skin). The manager looked at my nails and said I had dry skin. Obviously, it's winter, which is why i wanted to get the manicure? There are other nail spots in ten area that do a much better job. read more

Super nice and CLEAN place, my technician Jenny was very thorough and did an amazing job. They offer a 7 day guarantee on gel manis so if you chip you can go in within a week and have it repaired for free which is really nice. They had a great selection of colors and the salon was quiet and relaxing. Price is a little higher than other spots near by but it's definitely worth it. I'll be back for sure! read more

I have never had a better powder manicure in my entire life. Susan was beyond amazing and I will continue to go back to her for the years to follow!!! She was amazing and it was thin and natural and she was so sweet as well. I had the best experience here and have already referred multiple friends to Apple nails as well as Susan. Truly the best. I attached a photo of my nails almost 2 weeks later. Truly the nicest a manicure has looked read more

I've been here for SNS with extensions 3 or 4 times and always walk away happy with the results. Yesterday I wanted to do something a little different and asked for a french manicure with color instead of white tips. Amanda told me that she had only ever done a regular French manicure but referenced the photo I brought in and made it come to life! She worked with me on testing out the right base color and it was a fun process. I was there a little longer than usual so it's definitely not something to do if you're in a rush but she was so meticulous and it came out perfectly! It was also more expensive than the regular SNS with extensions but having a membership card knocked off at least $10 so it's worth it to have if you come here often enough. I also always find everyone here to be professional and have never had any issues whatsoever. I think everyone probably appreciates cash tips but they always give you the option to tip on your card as well. Highly recommend! read more
