Bella Nails and Spa - Evidence that they did a terrible job on my nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Hamden, Connecticut

I've been coming to this salon religiously for quite some time. My nails are always done quickly and efficiently. There's never a moment where my nails are being done but the nail tech is walking away to do other things like I've experienced in other salons. I recommend making an appointment rather than just showing up so you're not waiting. If you know you're getting your nails done that day, just make a quick call to the salon and they'll send you a text confirmation of your appointment. The quality is superb and I truly appreciate the staff. Howard has become a friend to me and I won't trust anyone else to do my nails besides him! He always gives me exactly what I want! read more

I went for a full set ..... the Lady was nice but they way she did my nails was TERRIBLE ..... I picked one nude color they must of mixed the polish with red polish ... as she polishing the color is coming out crazy looking. And I tell her she continues to ignore me and then say I'm all set .. I told her to change the polish because every single nail was a different color. Then she got mad she did my design line so uneven !!!!! And the new color I chose was pretty but now it's been only a week and the color is turning ... TWO NAILS ALREADY CRACKING AND ONE NAIL BROKE COMPLETELY OFF THREE DAYS AFTER I WENT .... $50 for garbage .... They don't care about how nails look just care about the money .. read more

I read the reviews prior to coming here but nothing was utterly jarring so I decided to try them out. The place was very clean and the owner was pleasant and accommodating. When I began my pedicure, I realized that all the artist did was rinse the tools with water versus using new ones. I made her quickly get new ones. That's absolutely DISGUSTING. Water can't rid of a possible fungus. Then she put hand-soap in the pedicure bowl versus using body soap. I was so turned up but I was pressed for time and had to continue. Although she did a good job, they do a poor job in the cleanliness. For that alone, I'd say do not come here. read more

I had an appointment with Nancy for a manicure, pedicure , lip and eyebrow wax. It started out that she put a different nail polish color on my toes than what I had selected. I didn't notice until after I left, due to the lighting in the salon. This was my first time getting a wax there and Nancy BURNT BOTH OF MY EYELIDS AND LIP. I didn't realize how bad it was until it started burning after I left the salon. I called and spoke with the owner who said the redness will go away in a couple of days and to put vaseline on both my eyebrows and lip. I ended up getting an infection and I had to go to my eye doctor to get a steroid and an anti-biotic. This alone cost me more than my salon visit. Keep in mind, I told Nancy that I just lost my mother and sister in the past 3 months and that it was my birthday coming up and that I really needed to treat myself. This was the most unprofessional salon experience that I ever experienced in my life! "I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS SALON!!!" read more

Extremely inexperienced workers here. Worst pedicure I've ever gotten. It looks like a 5 year old did it, I could do so much better myself. I will never go back there Too bad because it's a nice space. Now I know why they are never busy. read more

I came here last week and was happy with the service. I returned today to get a gel manicure only to be turned away. With 2 hours before closing and only one person waiting, I was told they are too busy and to come back tomorrow. The prices are fair and the service is nice but customer convenience doesn't seem to be a concern. 4-19-18 I came back yesterday around 5 PM and received gel color. Unfortunately, I am not happy with the result. I typically keep my nails square and the woman who did my nails rounded them out and they are extremely uneven. Additionally, there is excess paint on my cuticles and around my fingers that I feel should have been removed before I left. Everyone there is extremely nice and I do have friends and relatives that enjoy it there, but so far I have not had a good experience. read more

I called and asked for the price for gel. This man stated 30. When I finished my nails he said 40 in cash and 42.20 with card. Reporting this company. Be aware. Scam person owner. The man. Bella is not worth it. read more

We went to Bella Nails and Spa for pre-wedding nails this week. I've had gel put on my nails many times and it never turned out quite this poorly. We had the last appt of the day so I understand but not when I paid $64 plus tip for a gel manicure and regular pedicure. The manicure is messy with polish all over every nail and multiple nails being crooked. The pedicure did not include the massage and I got no lotion on my feet. Overall the nail polish on my toes looks good, poor job filing, but the pedicure treatment was not worth the price paid. I was hopeful this would be a good visit but I will not return, and don't recommend the salon to anyone for gel. read more

Worst gel mani/ pedi ever. Barely any massage and my nails were all different lengths. My nails were chipping the next day

A nail salon that I had went to prior to going to this one had left my nails way to long and made one of my nails crooked. I went into this shop and spoke to the owner about my situation, and if he could cut my nails down and file them up nicely. He explained that he would be able to help me and even gave me budgeting advice. It was a friendly environment, I was greeted properly, up to date equipment, and yes very clean. I will be going again, thank-you!! read more

Called ahead to see if I could do a walk in acrylic and was open to seat me whenever I was ready! The man who did my nails (wish i got his name) was amazing! Super nice, explained the whole process to me and pleasantly chatted with me. If you are looking for a clean, nice and good priced nail salon this place is good. Although its not perfect its a great bang for your buck. read more

Ive finally found a place I love to do my nails. I met with Howard today for the first time. I made an appointment for 4 and I was out of there before 5. Had the crystal manicure done. Highly recommended! I wasn't sure what I wanted when I walked in, but Howard was very knowledgeable about telling me what services they offered and all about the differences. The place is so clean and everyone seems very friendly read more

I do not recommend this nail salon. Poor customer service and/ or the lack thereof. Was treated extremely poorly as if my presence was offensive to them. Wanted to look at gel colors and the male refused to allow me to look. They discriminated against me. What they failed to realize I am a professional and work for the State of Connecticut. Was not impressed. The nail tech frowned and looked at me with disgust . I finally got up and left with my wet feet and put my wet feet in my socks. The nail tech smiled. Awful!!! read more

Nice salon but they did a pretty sloppy job with my manicure and pedicure. My nails weren't filed evenly and the lady cut my cuticles too way too short and they started bleeding. I won't recommend this place. read more

The only reason I patronize Bella Nails & Spa is because of Susan (who herself deserves a 5-star rating); it's only because of her presence that I'm giving the salon itself 3 stars (earned in relation to my comments that shall follow). Susan has been my mani/pedi stylist for years and when she joined this salon I followed. She is AMAZING and her work is utter PERFECTION. She's so warm/friendly/personable and I recommend her to everyone that I know who is looking for a Grade A++ manicure/pedicure. The salon itself is very modern, clean and comfortable (and for that it deserves 5-stars). Absolutely beautiful. Whenever I've called to make an appointment, the gentleman who takes the reservation is very friendly and courteous. This gentleman deserves 5 stars as well! However, the other female manicurists/pedicurists who work in this salon are not friendly AT ALL! IF I COULD GIVE THEM A NEGATIVE RATING WITHOUT BESMIRCHING THE SALON AS A WHOLE, I WOULD!!! When these women address me upon entry they're very cold and abrupt...downright nasty! I've caught them staring at me a number of times as if I have 10 heads and they act as if I'm either going to steal something or that my business is not welcomed. If it weren't for the fact that Susan works here, I would not patronize this establishment. It's really unfortunate because I've been nothing but courteous and friendly ... I say, "Hello" to everyone whenever I've entered and they don't even acknowledge your presence. There have been times where I've wanted to ask them "What is your problem?!", but it's not worth the energy to interact. It's RIDICULOUS and it needs to change because Heaven knows there are more than enough nail salons where people can go for services and are treated in the appropriate manner in which customer service should be delivered! read more

Awesome!! My girlfriend and I got gel mani pedis together and which came out great. The massage chairs for the pedicures were so worth it! They had a huge selection of colors for the polish too. The outside does not do any justice for how nice it is inside. The staff was very friendly and overall it was quite relaxing. I will be back. read more

Bella Nails is conveniently located in Hamden across from the Stop & Shop. The salon is very clean and the staff are quite friendly and attentive. I came about an hour and a half before closing on a Thursday afternoon, so I didn't wait very long to be seen. They have a pretty good color selection for shellac. Hau did my shellac fingernail polish. Nancy did my shellac spa pedicure. Nancy did an excellent job on my pedicure. The polish on my toenails is very clean and precisely painted. read more

WORST MANICURE I'VE EVER HAD. Asked for polish change. Polish had bubbles. Polish all over my cuticles. Filed my nails crookedly. Ragged edges. When I showed him the issues he said "I don't see any bubbles hunny." Terrible customer service. Not a skilled nail tech. Do not ever go here. They will take your money and throw some nail polish on you and rush you out the door, hunnnny!!! I wouldn't be so disgruntled if they had tried to work with me or offer to fix my nails.... But he clearly couldn't care less (probably because I had already paid, which was my mistake). read more

I came in on the later side, and I was accommodated, and generally I was treated very kindly. However, the manicure was really terrible. It looked entirely unprofessional - the polish was uneven, and I even had polish all over my cuticles. More importantly, within 2 days every single nail was chipped. Some of them chipped within just a few hours. I wouldn't return. read more

It has been one week and my "gel tips" or whatever they are, are coming up on almost all of my nails. This is not okay, I now have to go to another salon to fix their shoddy work. I will not be going back, and do not recommend getting tips there at all read more

This isn't your typical nail salon. It is spacious, modern, extremely clean, brand new massage chairs. They have two big screen tvs and a beautiful drying station. When you walk in, you walk straight to a reception desk ayou are greeted with a smile. Everyone is friendly, and good at their job. My nails came out great, I will definitely be back. read more

I went to this place when everything started to open up. My old place closed. I am so happy I found this salon. Very clean and they do a great job. Been going back ever since. read more

I should have listened to the review about being dirty! This place is so dirty. The amount of dust on their nail polish display should have been my tip off. Also they have bunch of polishes behind the counter in boxes that seem to be a gel product that my manicurist tried to use for a regular manicure and the coverage looked like something that you would get in a child's party favor! I was just meeting friends for dinner in North Haven which is why I tried this place. I wold NOT recommend it. read more

very clean salon & very friendly staff, but my mani (gel) and pedi looked like shit. So much so that I was embarrassed to even post the pics & I had to come home and file extra gel of from around my fingers & buy a red nail polish to fill in spots on my toes. Sorry but I won't be returning & it's above average pricing for the poor quality read more

Its covid and I've been taking a break with the nail salon. With the holiday around the corner I decided to get my nails done- big regret! The nail tech piled the acrylic on without sculpting them down and used a gel nail polish that I cannot remove without a nail file. I did not ask for gel and was charged double (not like I could refund a completed nail job). The nail tech also kept stopping to text and call on his phone. Job was rushed and i will NEVER go back to Bella nails. read more

This is the best nail salon in Hamden. I do recommend making an appointment though just because they're so busy. But every time I schedule an appointment, I'm seated right away and greeted by the staff. They're so welcoming, I love that I could sit down and have a conversation with my manicurist. I got a gel refill and pedicure and I was in and out. No long waits! I love Bella's nails! And they are a very clean and modern salon read more

They have done a great job on my nails but my friend did not have a great experience so be careful who does your nails at this place

Love this place! People are nice and the place is clean. I highly recommend this place. Plus it has WIFI so that's always a plus

Service was good and quick. But price way too high for what you got. Bare bones pedicure cost $28, was done in less than 25 minutes.

The worst manicure I have ever gotten and I live in queens New York so that says a lot! The woman was rushing on my nails since the moment she started working on them. I told her I wanted long nails she cut them at a good length and then after she put the fell on the filed them down to LITTLE NUBS. each finger is a different shape. None of them are even. My right thumbnail is cut on a slant. My right hand ring finger looks like they didn't put the second coat of polish on it so it's a completely different color. I have red polish all over the sides of my nails on my skin and the best part MY NAIL ALREADY LIFTED OFF. I will never come back here. Not to mention a few months ago I came here and the guy scammed me into ten dollars. I just got a gel fill and he told me my total was 50$ and he was charging me to "cut back my nails" first of all their prices are way over priced to begin with. 50$ for a shitty manicure? No thanks. Never will return. Don't go here. Sky and Kristen is way better but make an appointment. read more
