Emely G.

I came to get my toe nail polish changed (not a pedicure, not gel, just regular polish) and they charged me $30 before tax and tip for it.... I work and live in New York City and not even there have I ever seen prices like this FOR A REGULAR POLISH CHANGE. As if this was a luxury spa (it's not). If they would've told me this I would've just got a regular pedicure. Not to mention one day later, the $30 paint job chipped The lady who did my SNS dip with tips did a great job but check prices before coming here because pricing for some things are totally out of line and unreasonable

Location

So I recently moved from NYC to JC and came here Saturday morning before 10 opening time as I wanted a French mani/pedi for an event. To my surprise there were 2 women being serviced so I walked in. I Was greeted well and then before Asked what I wanted the two women spoke to each other in their language. One asked what I wanted i mani/pedi they started speaking again then said do I have an appointment. I said no but I can wait the 5 min until 10 if that's a problem. They begin speaking again.. I asked is there availability one is looking on computer the other away preparing the pedi sink for another customer said we're full. I said ok what time are you available she said leave your number. I asked if they can tell me a time for today or tomorrow I was told leave a number they'll let me know. Then I come on yelp and not w very few comments or post from BIPOC and then reviews states a black woman was turned away 4 times different reasons. I will not return and do not recommend. I was made to be so uncomfortable. Now I'm a 40 year old professional black woman. Not that it matters because I'm a paying customer or would have been. I'll pay the toll and cross the holland tunnel 2x before I come back there ever again.

I rarely write reviews, but I am really mad this time. The nails are doing fine, but manager's attitude is extremely bad. I made an appointment about fake nails, and I said multiple times that I want to do designs, so she could arrange more time for my nail tech to do my nails. When I just about to start put gel polish on, she said "it takes too long to do design, you never told me you want to do design. Hurry up. Don't do complicated design, change to simple one. " When I am in the middle of doing my nails, she interrupted multiple times, blamed me and my nail tech about it takes too long to do your nails. Really really really bad attitude If you don't want to do business, then shut down your business I have never treated like this in a nail salon. It's kind of like kicking customers out. btw, she charged me $160 this time without tips. For the same service( fake nail, dipping power, design), it was $85 last time. ( almost double??? I don't understand) The nails are doing fine, but the attitude is bad. Also, because she kept interrupted and said hurry up, I didn't get the design i want at the end.

I like this salon, and like all the staff, they are so nice. Since I started going to this salon, I didn't change it. I love the way she did my nails. It was expensive but worth it.

Before & After two different places.

At first very sweet atmosphere all I have known is UVGEL but the owner is very controlling. Just because of materials for UV gels are so expensive to be told for my next appt. dip powder nails is the only service they would do for me. Which my prior nail mentioned due to my nail shape dipping powder is useless thin or thick it would pop offwhen mentioned let's take a break so can I get an appt for regular manicure? I was totally ignored!!! Get way to earn karma credit. Haydee Rodz

I found this place close to two years ago. I love that Blooming Nails works by taking appointments so I can manage my time weeks ahead of time. From gel mani to dip powder mani, I've had nothing but amazing results here. In addition, their spa pedi feels so good. In terms of price, I find it reasonable as my gel/dip powder nails last long and their pedi massage game is strong. In terms of service, I find everyone in here totally genuine and professional. This salon is perfect for people who live around them and are seeking a long-term relationship. Every visit, I tend to plan ahead with specific examples of design with images that I would like and they accommodate my wishes unless the examples will lead to unhealthy nails. In other words, they really care about your nails! If they suggest anything different or new that I am not familiar with or not ready for, they respect my wishes after short discussion. I feel like finding the right salon is like dating and Blooming Nails is my long-term match!

I've gone here consistently twice a month or so a couple years now and it's always been great! Mostly I've had Lisa do my nails (gel or dip powder) and she's done a perfect job! I hate when places make it soo thick and chunky, but they're always nice and thin and natural looking. I've gotten little designs and whatnot, glow in the dark once. She's always been able to do what I've asked. Even when I've just walked in and had someone else do my nails, it's always come out really good. The pedicure chairs are your regular massage chairs, really comfortable. Great customer service, I've always been really happy with my experience. I think prices are comparable to other regular salons in the area. Don't expect a flute of champagne or anything, but as far as your typical salon goes, this one's really good!

This is what I wanted. The lines I got were done poorly.
Destiny R.

I went to the salon hoping to get dip powder extension and a simple linear design. I had Lina. The nails came out good, I had to be really on top of the evenness so don't expect to be laid back. Before I left the customer before me had an issue with the width of her nails and got them fixed by the manager I believe. When it came to the design, the lines were sloppy, some Sara's uneven or even looked smudged. I am not one to complain, it's embarrassing for me, but there was no way I was going to leave with that, so I spoke up and we agreed that the design would come off, but then they all refused to try again. They didn't charge me for the design, so great. But I couldn't believe how they really made me feel like I was the issue. And now I'm looking at my plain nails and three of them are uneven. I went to the place based on their reviews and I was so disappointed.

Just had my nails done recently and I love them! I tried my first dip powder at Blooming Nails & Spa. Lina was amazing!
Joy Y.

Loved this place! Best kept secret. I tried dip powder for the first time, and it was worth it. Lina was great! I am a nail biter, and Lina worked magic! My nails looks great! I tried a fall color plus some sparkle and they look as though they are my natural nails. I will be back!

Sezen T.

Worst experience I have ever had. I paid good amount of money, but I have got bad result. They need to hire who knows what to do, I've been nice, and didn't really care about the yelp reviews. But I guess my friends can do better job than this. Please, give professional service to your customers. Not let some old ladies who can't see detail on the nails.

this is really the best nail salon I have ever been to. Lisa was my person and she was so gentle, kind, and considerate. most of the nail salons, I've gone to in the past never treated me this well or has made me feel this satisfied to spend my money there. they just earned me as a regular customer I will definitely be going back every 3 weeks to get my dip nails done

Brandy Nail & Skin Care - French gel manicure

I've been to this salon in the past, but after my most recent visit, I won't be returning. I…read morescheduled an appointment for a French gel manicure and a regular pedicure. The pedicure felt rushed--while they did cut and file the nails and trim the cuticles, that was the extent of it. There was no real cleaning done, like removing dry skin or buildup from under the nails, which is something I've always expected as a basic part of a pedicure. Things went further downhill during the manicure. After prepping my nails, the technician asked which base color I wanted for the French manicure. When I looked down at my nails, I was shocked to see they were covered in white scratches and marks. My nails were bare when I walked in, and it was clear the damage was from overly aggressive filing of the nail beds. When I politely pointed this out, instead of taking responsibility, the owner gave me a series of dismissive explanations--blaming the condition of my nails on the fact that I hadn't been to the salon in a while, implying I must have done something to them beforehand, and finally saying they were "super dry" (which somehow justified the scratches). None of these made sense, and at that point, I decided I didn't feel comfortable continuing with the manicure. What made it worse was that they had already applied and cured the gel top coat. When I asked how they planned to remove it without further damaging my already painful nails, they proceeded to attempt to soak them in acetone--despite just claiming my nails were too dry. In the end, I paid for a mediocre pedicure and walked out with sore, scratched nails. There was no apology or effort to make things right. This visit was disappointing on all fronts--lack of professionalism, poor technique, and zero accountability. Unfortunately, I won't be returning.

I chose this salon based on the positive reviews, so I had high hopes. Very sweet nail technician…read morewho was very welcoming. But the end result was patchy and uneven, and one of the nails ended up with debris trapped between the layers of polish. I'm used to very different quality, so this was a bit disappointing.

This salon is definitely more convenient for those who live by Exchange Place and Paulus Hook than…read morethe majority of salons which are by Grove and Newport. It is pretty small - only about 5 manicure chairs and 3 pedicure chairs. I have not had any issue getting an appointment. The online booking system is easy to use. The prices here are about $5 to $10 higher than other salons in the area, however there's often a promo so then the costs are better than others. I had a much better pedicure experience than I did manicure. I think the interior of this salon was maybe redone recently? It seems freshly painted, but then things like the nail polishes all generally looked half empty and dried out. There are no fans or vents on the manicure stations so there is powder from when they buff the nail polish off that coats everything. Not all the tools come out of the sanitizer packs which I did not like at all. There is a really large selection of dip powders. There was an underwhelming choice of gel polish colors to choose from. My nails did not all come out the same shape - some were round while others had an odd round-square shape. I was disappointed that one of the gel nails chipped 3 days after getting it done and a few more had chipped within a week. The pedicure stayed much longer and overall looked better than the manicure.

I have had good and bad experiences at nail salons, but this was definitely THE WORST and RUDEST…read morepedicure experience I've ever received. In short terms, DO NOT GO. The experience went downhill before the service even really started. Trying colors is a completely standard practice at nail salons, but Crystal Sun's practice for some reason cannot deliver. I showed the technician a reference photo of the pink shade I wanted. Since there were dozens of similar pinks on the color board, I simply asked for her advice. Experienced nail technicians usually know which shades are closest to a reference photo, so I thought it was a reasonable question. Instead, she came back with a color that looked almost white. I politely asked, "This is more of a white-ish color, right?" just to confirm. She became impatient and rude, "Just tell me the number of the color (from their color board) you want to have." At that point I was already frustrated, but I picked another color number anyway. Then the owner stepped in and started telling me, "You know this color is very pink..." I asked if I could simply try it so I could see how it looked on my nail. Instead of answering, she kept explaining why I didn't need to try it. So I asked, "So I can't try it?" Her response? "You don't need to give me attitude." I wasn't giving anyone an attitude, as I was asking for advice and trying to communicate what I wanted. I even showed her my reference photo and explained that I was asking because it's difficult to match a picture to a bunch of similar colors. She brushed it off by saying pictures and real life don't always look the same, which is exactly why I wanted to try the color first. She then grabbed another polish and started telling me that darker colors are better for pedicures, again without letting me try it. By then I was exhausted from arguing over something that every other salon I've been to handles without any issue, so I just accepted it and wanted the appointment to be over. Unfortunately, the service itself was just as disappointing as the interaction. The polish application was sloppy, the brush strokes were uneven, my cuticles were barely cleaned up, and the overall finish looked rushed. The worst part? I got home and noticed the polish was already chipping. I've honestly never had a fresh pedicure chip almost immediately (See pictures). I still paid full price for the worst pedicures I've ever received. After this experience, I'm not surprised this salon sits at a 3.8-star rating on Google. I was hoping to find a nail salon in Jersey City that I could return to long-term, but this was a huge mistake. Save yourself the time, money, and frustration. DO NOT GO.
