BJ's Nails & Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

See all

Showed them a picture of what I wanted they said they couldn't do that so I asked for a solid then they all of a sudden said they could do what I asked for. DIDNT turn out anything like the picture. i Also had pretty long nails and wanted to keep the length they ended up cutting and putting on acrylics after I said no. read more

I went here for waxing my eyebrows. She did a very thorough job (reeealllyy thorough). Communication was not easy though, so just be patient and explain slowly and many times to make sure she's got you! It was only 10 bucks, certainly worth the buck! read more

They took me in immediately as a walk in. I got dipped nails & extensions for only $45! I was very happy with how I was treated there & im thrilled with my nails! read more

BJ's Nails & Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

The good is they are not busy and they polish nails decently enough. The bad is it isn't as clean as people are saying, there was debris on the floor under the mani station which is gross when you just got a pedi and you can hear the crunch of other people's clipped nails under your feet. The bad is the constant push to upsale. You want a basic pedi but they will not relent until you spend $40 and for that you get so little. No parrafin, just a crappy short leg massage. I heard every person around me pushed to get the upsell. Your nails won't be shaped consistently across both hands and your cuticles will look even worse. In a pinch it's okay but you will pay less for a better mani/pedi just about anywhere else. read more

Awesome experience all around. Wonderful service, excellent quality products used, and exceptionally clean. Henry and Jessica are awesome.

It was the best manicure and pedicure I've ever had. Jessica was so nice and gentle! I recommend this place to everyone.

wanted to try a new nail salon and absolutely love it here! staff is very friendly and clean environment! definitely coming back

I don't enjoy writing negative reviews, but after the horrible customer service I endured at BJ's I feel that I have no choice but to share my experience. I came to BJ's for a manicure with a friend a few months ago and am sad to say that I will never be back. The nail salon itself was clean and well-kept, but the customer service I experienced was truly appalling. When we arrived, my manicurist told my friend and I to pick out our nail polish colors and take a seat at our stations. As soon as I carried mine over to my table, the manicurist accidentally dropped an open bottle of polish that he was working with onto the floor next to my feet, causing the nail polish to spray all over my shoes and pants. Now, let me be perfectly clear with you guys. Accidents happen, and while I was shocked and in a minor state of panic, I tried to keep my cool. I happened to be wearing a more expensive pair of shoes that day since I was out with one of my girlfriends - they were worth about $75. I tell you this only because I think this fact contributed even further to my dismay at what happened next. I expected the manicurist to immediately apologize and make some offer of reciprocation in order to remedy the situation. Instead, without saying anything at all, he quickly poured some acetone onto a large rag, bent down, and started vigorously rubbing my shoes with the acetone. I backed away quickly in complete shock, as he was spreading the polish and making it worse. After that, instead of showing remorse or asking if the salon could repay me for the shoes, he kept insisting, "Accidents happen, it wasn't my fault. Please, accidents happen!" over and over again. Yes, accidents do happen, I agree. But as an employee of an upstanding business, I would expect much better treatment toward a paying customer. My friend and I asked to speak to a manager at that point, who continued to assure us that accidents happen and offered no help at all to fix the situation. I thought at the very least they could offer to give me my manicure for free, but they did not even do that. Neither the manicurist who made the mistake nor the manager of the salon offered me one thing in return for the accident that had occurred and ruined my shoes and pants. My girlfriend and I left the salon in complete disgust. This may not be the experience that you've personally had at BJ's salon, and honestly, I hope it isn't. But I cannot support any business that treats their customers in this way. I will not be back. read more

This is, by far, my favorite nail salon in Pittsburgh. Let me start by saying I am super picky about my nails. Oh, so very picky. I am a crazy busy small business owner, so I don't have time to mess around with my nails all the time, but they HAVE to look good. I'm a hairstylist/hair colorist, so polish doesn't last, and gel gets stained super fast; I wear acrylic "pink & whites" with a buff finish because they hold up the best for me. It drives me nuts when the nails are too thick like little baseball bats, or too long, or when the white is too wide. I like thin, natural looking nails with the white edge positioned where my natural free edge would be, not halfway up my nail. AND- No, I do NOT want a gel finish to make them shiny, thank you very much. Gel stains and it drives me BONKERS when I have to explain that more than once to a nail tech who wants to save a little time or upsell me. I want them buffed, and i don't want to have to argue about it. So.... that said, let me repeat: This is, by far, my favorite nail salon in Pittsburgh. They're conveniently located on the southbound side of McKnight Rd, not far from Ross Park Mall. (right next to Midas and close to Bed Bath and Beyond) The salon is clean, they use top quality products and the work is stellar. My nails are ALWAYS perfect- thin, just the right amount of white tip, the pink is exactly the right color, and I don't even have to ask for the buff finish any more, he just does it for me. They do lots of other, fancier stuff there too, if you want it. Nail designs, mani-pedis, etc. I never have time for it. It's all I can do to get there every few weeks for a fill. That's my only complaint, and it's more about me/my life than the salon; often I just don't have time to get there. My business is in a different part of town and I can't always get away for appointments. But, every time I've just ducked in some random shop that happens to be closer, hoping to just get a simple fill, it's never... EVER.... as good as the work I get at BJ Nails. My stepdaughter and her friends and various family members also come here, and be warned, they do get busy. But they are well worth the wait. read more

A few days ago I had a full set of acrylics put on at another salon. Within 3 days I had a nail lift right off of my natural nail. In a pinch before leaving for the airport, I stopped by BJ's Nail & Spa to see if they could quickly fix it. They did a wonderful job and even mixed colors in order to match what I currently had on my other nails! This will definitely be my new nail place! Not only did they do a fantastic job but they are so reasonably priced, friendly and very very helpful! read more

Made an appointment for gels. My nails were not all the same length so she cut them all to match the shortest nail?!?! Some to the quick. She wasn't able to get the polish to meet the cuticle, she was too busy watching something on her iPhone. Needless to say, I won't go back. read more

BJ's Nails & Spa - Example of how not to apply gel polish. - Nail Salons Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Went here today for a set of acrylics and my mom got a mani/pedi..both of us are very happy and she said it was one of the best she's ever had..she bumped a toe and he fixed it and it was no big deal..very reasonable prices as well read more

Overall not very impressed. I made a pedicure appointment for myself and a friend. We waited about 15 minutes after start time before someone asked us to come back. While my pedicure got started they just had my friend soak her feet. The salon wasn't busy and we had made an appointment so not sure why no one could do her pedicure at the same time. The lady kept pushing me to get my eyebrows waxed, which I refused so she just stopped talking. My friends pedicure was not started by another technician until my nails were bring painted, and they had to give her new water because it was cold. Lastly its a pet peeve of mine when anyone hovers over me while I'm figuring out a tip on the credit card slip and this lady would not leave me alone. I wont be back, should have been 45 minutes tops and ended up there for an hour and a half. read more

my entire left hand and half of my right are crooked. toes are cute tho. super clean and cute place, tons of colors.

My favorite nail spa! I never know when I'll have time to go for a visit, so I am consequently always a walk-in. They try their best to accommodate me immediately or offering a convenient appointment later that day. They do a great job and I am always happy with the results! read more

I am not one to write reviews like this, but need to here. As a customer here and there of this business for years, I rarely had a problem. Sometimes they were overbooked even with an appointment, but I could get past that. But in the past year or so, a new 'employee' there has completely changed the business. The whole place now reeks of incense (to the extent I've witnessed potential customers walk in then turn around and leave!), and I am pretty convinced this woman is not-certified yet does pedicures and painting. She paints horribly (think slow and caked on) and after my last visit, I won't be returning again. It was slow and painful, and I was not satisfied at all. read more

Fantastic experience here! Took my nieces and the staff wad so kind and did a great job on their nails. They did beautiful nail art and painted their nails for only $10. I got a shellac manicure and it turned out perfect. I'll definitely go back again!!! read more

Henry is the best and a perfectionist, prices are good too! BJ's is my nail salon of choice!

This place is amazing!! I have been all around Pittsburgh getting my nails done for the past 4 years not really finding a place I can get excited about. I rarely ever do Reviews, but I feel like this place needs one. The staff here are so friendly and the place is very neat. They are under new management and the new staff is so very talented. I'm so glad I stopped in. I'm proud to say I found my nail spot! read more

Kris and Kenny are the absolute best. I take my grandma to get our nails done once a month and they are incredibly kind to us. They salon is always neat and tidy and they do great job. Best place to go in Pittsburgh! read more

I have fallen in love with Shellac. It is amazing. And BJ's is the absolutely best location for Shellac. It is spacious, quiet, nice and doesn't smell like acrylic. They always do an amazing job and I find their prices to be reasonable and lower than anyone else in the North Hills for Shellac. In the past, I've also had pink and white done there. They also did an excellent job with that as well. You can also put your tip on your credit card, which is my preference since I never carry cash. read more

BJ's nails is by far the best nail salon I have been to ever, and I have been to so many. They have all types of options to look fantastic, and their customer service is excellent. Additionally the owners are amazingly incredible friendly people. Chris is wonderful. I travel to this salon from far away, and this is an amazing salon. I would recommend this establishment to anyone seeking a beyond awesome experience. Laura read more

Under new management. Great salon. Very professional, clean, courteous. They take their time and give you exactly what you want.

My mom, Grandma, as Kenny and Kris so fondly call her, has been getting her nails done at BJs for years. She is treated like family. They are always so kind during her monthly pampering. Thanks for doing such a great job on her nails!!! read more

went last September to have a mani and pedi, after having gastric bypass and down about 50 lbs the owner proceeded to tell me after starting to put tips on that he could not do a pedicure on me because i would not fit int he chair, I was apalled if he was not in the middle of getting tips on I would have left. I have had pedicures done other places prior to surgery with no problem..... I will not go back. read more

I've never written a review for anything in my life, but feel compelled to do so for BJ Nails. At first, I was impressed - I thought that Kenny was excellent. Got a great pedicure and what I thought was a great manicure. Like other nail salons, they confusingly offer you extras... Convinced me to get an "organic pedicure" to get the dry skin off my heels... Said it would be $10 in addition to the $25 pedicure. My manicure was just a simple manicure. Got a gel manicure on my nails and toes. Otherwise, nothing special. When I went to pay, I was charged $90!!!!!! It's my fault for not refusing to pay that much, but I was stunned... Almost speechless. It's been bothering me ever since. As if being overcharged wasn't bad enough, my gel manicure - which was to last at least 14 days, chipped two days after the manicure... Two different nails. I can't begin to explain how disappointed I am. Would have loved to say that I loved this place and found "my" nail salon in Pittsburgh, but unfortunately, I will never go back and cannot recommend this nail salon to anyone. read more

I am up from florida and I needed a fill, I wasn't really happy from another place when they did my fill weeks ago. and I read some reviews about BJ"S so I stopped in to check the prices and see if they could help. I am so happy with my nails, they did the fill and redid the white and added two designs for a very reasonable price. Kenny did my nails and he did an excellent job took his time and didn't rush like some salons do when they are busy. I would highly recommend them. I will be back next year on my yearly visit. thank you Kenny. read more

I have been a client of Kenny and Chris for years and they always do a fabulous job--especially with acrylics. Pedicures are the best and they use a lot of new organic products. Great color selections, too. Both are very gentle and go above and beyond to make sure the customer is happy. Also, the salon is very clean and relaxing. Definitely 5 stars! read more

I was a fan of this place a few years ago. I usually get a full set and I was content with the service. I returned after about a year and I don't think I'll be back. Once the service was started, Kris asked me what length. I requested a medium length and was told it would be an extra $5. I thought it was odd because I didn't request long or extra long nails, I wanted (literally) maybe a centimeter more length. So, I just opted for a shorter length. After applying the acrylic, she asked to put my hand under a UV light. I kindly opted out, as there is no benefit of this. It doesn't dry the acrylic and when I asked she couldn't provide a reason why it would help. I asked about the brand of a clear coat she used because she kept asking me to put my hands in the UV light (I didn't get gel). She didn't tell me the brand and the bottles are unmarked. She immediately told me it was too late for gel, which confused me because it wasn't what J asked. The service proceeded, very quickly. I asked for a French manicure and was ready to finish my service. The white polished used was very thick and didn't dry well so I asked them to remove it and left with a clear coat. My acrylic was placed on my cuticle so it's already lifting (3 days in) somewhat. It's ok if your in dire need, but I wont be returning. read more

I never write reviews, but I felt like I should after my recent trip to BJ's. I have never been treated so badly. The gentleman that did my french manicure was SO rude. I rarely get my nails done, and am terrified of getting an infection, so I brought my own tools. He straight up laughed at me, and scoffed at the fact that I brought them. He went through them asking what each tool was, like he had no idea. Then he told me they were awful. He then hurried through my mani, obviously anxious to get it done with. His finger nails were long and sharp and dug into my hands the entire time. Afterwards, he told me to go to the hand dryer (which i had no idea where it was, since this was my first trip there) after I finally located it, I apparently was sitting down on the wrong side, and he gets up and starts YELLING at me, telling me to sit on the other side. He then brought my purse over and tossed it on the floor. My friend and I were actually in awe of how rude he was. The other two women there seemed pleasant, but obviously didn't want to be there either. Anytime someone asked a question, they answered curtly, then went back to staring at their smart phones. My manicure looks alright, but the tips are not even. I could have done a better job myself, and saved myself from sitting through a really uncomfortable experience that I had to pay $20 for! read more
