Okay let's start with regular prices . I almost got charged $136 for an acrylic short set and a white gel pedicure...if I didn't advocate and speak up for myself HELLO??? Originally, I got told that my nails were going to be $111 which is insane for toes and nails when other businesses charge less for better and bigger designs . Then onto the customer service, they were staring while speaking in their own language (which isn't the issue) however it is intimidating to shy new clients especially my already shy little sister when she asked why my and her nails were so much. Next under their breath, it sounded like she said that I didn't even say thank you when she finished my nails. Which is just .. getting nails done is supposed to be relaxing not a money gimmick where you can charge for the next little thing or polka dot. read more

My family and I have been going to Blooming Nails for years. In my opinion, "Mia" is by far the best for mani/pedi as I have had others work on me, and not one has put the same care and/or effort into their service like she does.. read more

Absolutely worst place I've been to. Horrible service and staff. I've been getting my nails done for years and the first time I go somewhere new due to needing my nails done for some last minute plans my nails start peeling after an hour. One nail pops off. I go back to get them fixed and they make me pay even more and tell me we will take $5 off after they were charging me more for no reason. Now not even a few days later my nails are doing the same and breaking. Please save your money and don't go there!! They don't even clean their nails tools after using them on someone else!!! And only put one star because I had to in order to post read more

I tried this nail salon since I could not get in at my usual place and needed my nails done for an event. I heard good reviews about this salon and even got my toes done there a few weeks ago with no complaints. I've gotten dip nails at my usual place with no issues. I've been trying to grow out my nails since November and was very happy with the growth. I didn't want to damage them with acrylics. I went on Monday and got done by the nail tech, Rachel. At my usual nail place, they soak off the old dip color with acetone. However, my nail tech at this salon filed it off with the grinder. I think maybe this thinned out my nails. About two days after I got them done, the first nail chipped. Ever since then, my nails have been chipping like crazy. I am really upset because these are my real nails and I've been growing them out for months. As you can see, my pointer finger split in half today when I was wiping down the counter and my finger tapped into the knife holder that was sitting on it. I thought this place would be good to get my nails done in a pinch, but I was definitely wrong. I basically threw $50 down the drain and I will not be returning. read more

I have been coming here since they opened. I would not go to any other nail salon. I am super pleased with that attention I get and Nikar always takes the best care and attention to my manicure. Amy does the best pedicure! read more

Nailed it! This salon boasts pristine decor, skilled technicians, and chic nail art. Love it! - WOW!

Emily is the best of the best. I've been going to her for almost a decade. Moved off of Staten Island 6 years ago and I still come back to see her! read more

I could have given no stars if that was an option. Having said that, this is the worst "nail spa" in all the five boroughs! Their pedicures are rushed, sloppy, and rough! Then the mani station, if you want to call it that, is a complete joke! And going for a mani-pedi is supposed to be an enjoyable and relaxing experience, and not painful, and to add insult to injury, the worst and most disgusting turnoff is that they hover around like spiders to a fly and demand their tip! I'm never going there again because it was the absolute worst experience of my life! And mind you they charge top dollar for these "Manicures and pedicures." Lastly, I guess if you want something done right check the reviews first because they speak volumes about this place! read more

I have been a long time customer at Blooming. I loved the girls and the quality was always great. Recently I have been rushed out of appointments & have been asked to reschedule appointments due to the nail tech claiming my appointment was made for a different time than I originally made it for. My appointment was made for 4:30. They claimed it was 4:00. I got there at 4:15 and someone was already in the seat. They told me they tried calling me and to come back for 6:00pm. I wasn't accommodated although there was a mistake on their end regarding the scheduled appointment time: This was not the first time. I went there the day before my wedding day and told the nail tech how excited I was and that tomorrow was my wedding. In response she stated "you only made an appointment for a gel manicure not a uv gel fill." very cold & upsetting. Unfortunately, I will not be going back although I did love their work. read more

Went in for a regular pedicure and walked out having paid 100$ to have my feet painted (polish was all over my toes) and oil poured on my legs. Staff assumed we wanted the more expensive pedicure and used the "language barrier" as a means to make more money. Absolutely ridiculous will never be returning here! read more

They did an AMAZING JOB my first time here and I'm obsessed thanks Emily! The shape is what I've been seeking for a long time, they were all nice. One thing I will note was- I didn't see the cuticle cuter come from a sterile bag which left me a little uneasy, but besides that everything else I'm happy with. read more

I rated way less then 1 star, The worst spa pedicure ever. This lady rushed through it, over filled the tank and deprived me of my special spa products bc she over filled the tank! She didn't even replaced the products. She aggressively scraped my toes and foot and was not watching where she was scraping as of she just wanted me to think she was doing the job, hello I can see and feel! Same thing with my pedicure she didn't even see where she was cutting and filling on my toes and again aggressively it hurt bad! I'm so mad right now and so unsatisfied! I'm never coming back here again! read more

Amazing pedicure by Mandy. My sister recommended this establishment I did read the reviews which were negative I don't know why. My experience was very positive and wonderful. I would definitely come back again... read more

Wish I could give less than 1 star This is about my third pedicure here (will never do my nails there again Bc they were horrific) this was by far the worst pedicure I ever had in my life . I believe I had a new girl there - she was actually holding the nail clipper upside down and I told her to turn it around that's why it wasn't cutting my nails . She barely did anything to my toes. Halfway through I asked for someone else to finish the job Bc I couldn't take another minute . Ruby finished up my toes but they look horrible they're crooked and she didn't even scrape the skin off of my feet but somehow sliced the bottom of my toe . I will never be going here again read more

I saw many negative reviews - but I chose this nail salon due to convenience - i thought they were great - great mani - will definitely come back read more

Completely unprofessional. Not only are my nails crooked and uneven, but my nail tech rushed through even though I had an appointment. She was so rude and even yelled at me that she would not change the color of my nails because I asked for funny bunny and ballet slipper when most people get them reversed. She said she didn't care if I didn't like it and when it was done it would be done. I was floored that Linda would speak to me that way. When I was finished, I paid and gave her a five dollar tip. I then realized I didnt have singles to tip my pedicure lady for a polish change but they began yelling that I needed to tip her and she ran up and waited behind me asking for her tip. I turned to her and asked if she could give me a minute because I needed change. It was a completely absurd experience. I have been going there for years and they have always been a little rude but never like this. I will not be going back. read more

Have been coming here for about a year now and keep coming back time and time again. They tend to be busy, so it's best to plan an appointment, especially if you plan on getting your nails done with Linda. Linda is a fantastic nail tech and if you plan on coming here, she is the best option for manicures. She makes sure the shape of the nails is all even, and lays down the polish evenly. She does this all with precision, while also being able to do it on time. If you're in a rush, depending on what you plan on getting, she get you out in about half an hour to an hour. She is also very kind and loyal and if you come continuously, the service keeps getting better and better. The atmosphere is very comfortable and relaxing and you will surely come back for more :). read more

TERRIBLE. every nail was misshapen and not symmetrical. When she applied powder, they were ridiculously thick. I asked multiple times for it to be fixed-correctly shaped and thinned out, she said she would. When they weren't I asked again, she said they would- they weren't. How many times do I have to ask for something before I realize that it's not going to get done? While filing she cut me not once not twice on FOUR NAILS almost five before I pulled my hand away. There are actual gaps between my nail and the tip placed on my nail which will inevitably grow a fungus as soon as water gets in which won't be a problem given the size of the gap. She was ready to polish my nails before I had enough and left without putting any color on. You were ready to polish my nails? Meanwhile there is enormous globs of acrylic on the underside of my nail. I even asked her not once but TWICE if she normally does acrylic fillins because it didn't seem like it and every single tool she used was not from her station and borrowed from another desk. In a rush, hoping I'm overreacting, and trying not to rip someone's head off I paid, left and went to a different salon. The other salon's tech brought up point after point of what was wrong with the nails and that I should not have paid! SO I return to the original salon and ask about a refund, they bring the manager who did not do my nails but was one of the three technicians I spoke to earlier. I should have told her I was unhappy. ONE I don't know you are the manager TWO you were not the one doing my nails why would I complain to you THREE how many times do I need to ask for the same thing before I realize it's not going to get done and leave. This woman says they don't offer refunds and I left I should have complained beforehand. I explained I was hoping I was over reacting and that it wasn't that bad. Still I left so what can she do. BET. I took pictures here is every thing you need to see. I will be growing fungus on at least THREE of my nails, run the risk of infection on FOUR because your technician cut me! Still wants to argue with me. THEN tells me the owner says if I want a refund I have to call 911. Two customers nearby heard me and shook their head in agreement so .... Save yourself the stress. read more

To say I am dissatisfied with the service here would be an understatement. I came here today for a regular manicure. After I paid and the woman finished painting my nails, as any normal person would, I got up and walked towards the drying station (or should I say what used to be the drying station) to dry my nails before my car ride home. I was then informed that they do not have any dryers any longer. Again, this was AFTER my nails were done and AFTER I paid. I was told that I could "sit outside and wait for my nails to dry" (not even any attempt at an apology). If you don't have a dryer, fine BUT HAVE A SIGN UP OR TELL YOUR CLIENT BEFORE YOU FINISH THEIR NAILS AND THEY PAY! I would have never agreed to getting a manicure had I known this! The minute I opened my car door and turned on my car to attempt to pathetically dry my nails with my cars AC, I saw they were already destroyed (pictures attached). I will never revisit or recommend this salon, what a shame. read more

Worst pedicure ever ! I have clear nail polish all over my toes, no cuticles cut, horrible massage, had to ask 3 times to keep scrapping skin, no color options, women do not speak English so do not understand your requests.

The only reason I'm giving 2 stars is because my nail tech was genuinely a nice lady...but let's begin. I called and made an appointment and that was easy..when i arrived at my appointment the lady sitting in the front was very rude and i instantly felt uncomfortable..now i sit down, i went in to get my old set of acrylics off and put a new one on. I explained the shape i wanted and also showed her a picture..(I've attached that photo as well) well..it was absolutely not what i wanted..i asked her to make my nail thin over and over again..she assured me 3 times that once she filed them it would look good...im so upset at what i got..giant thick block nails. I'm also posting a photo of what they look like 1 day after getting them done..it looks like I'll need a fill in within a few days (i plan on getting them fixed anyway) not to mention, every single time I've come to this salon they also cut me..not good. Now the payment process was even worse..i walk over to pay and I'm clearly upset about my nails...the tech stared directly at me while i paid and collected my money basically expecting a tip for terrible work..Not worth the money. Go somewhere else. read more

Came in thinking I was going to have a good experience and turns out it was until my pedicure. The lady used a tool on my foot and scrubbed so hard she made me bleed, she cut both my feet and I've been limping for the last week. Save yourself the time and go somewhere else. So happy it's not infected. That's how deep she cut into my foot. read more

awful awful awful !!!! Never go here if you're in a rush and make an appointment. I'm never one to write a bad review however, they will have you waiting 3 hours EVEN WHEN YOU MAKE AN APPOINTMENT for a manicure just to chip 2 days later. Ridiculous. read more

Used to be my favorite nail salon and I don't know what happened to this place but I got a new set of acrylics the other day and left the salon in tears and went to another salon to get them fixed. The girls wait at the register when you're paying and stare at you so you're forced to awkwardly tip even when they do an awful job. I paid $45 + tip for a disgusting, thick, ugly set of nails. They let pedicure girls do sets of tips now -- big mistake. This guy used to work here and he was amazing but he's never there anymore. Even better, when I came back for a pedicure (which chipped 2 days later) the same girl had the audacity to come up to me and say something about how I got my nails fixed and all the girls that worked there proceeded to laugh with her and I felt so embarrassed and ridiculed because of her terrible work! Never again. read more

I've been coming here for a little over a year and I have never left unhappy. Everyone is extremely nice and the pedicures are the bessssttt! So relaxing. They shape my nails perfectly too. Love them! Only downside in my opinion is that they don't really give a hand massage while rubbing in the lotion during a manicure. It's like half a second :( Other than that- amazing! read more

What a beautiful space and addition to the neighborhood! This place has the best ambiance for a nail salon that you'll find in this area, I hope they maintain it to be so! I got myself a gel French mani and a regular pedi on my first visit (20% discount! Get yourself the VIP card), I am such a sucker for membership cards and loyalty programs. The gel manicure was done kind of quickly but they have state of the art UV machines, I wasn't too happy with my gel French manicure because she made the white line way too thick for my already short nails, and it only lasted a week, strangely. The pedicure on the other hand is the best pedicure I've ever had on the island, or ever? The full hot stone, foot wrap, rose petal water, wow the whole nine! Massage chairs are awesome, I really enjoyed my experience here. Just wish the gel manicure had lasted longer and was done with more care hence the one star off. Will be coming back for my future pedis though for sure. read more

This is my second time at this nail salon, the first time was fine the lady who did my nails was super sweet and I was happy with my fill-in and gel nails. I came in for the second time was so turned off. I told the man in the front that I needed a change of polish on my toes, a fill- in with gel polish and 2 new nails. After my feet were done I was sent to dry (weird) & I showed a picture of a design I wanted, the man responded that "You would have to wait 45 mins" I said "never mind I will just get a solid color" he said "Ok you still need to wait 45 mins" I was PISSED I explained that no one advised me that I needed to wait that long prior? I have work I can't wait 45 mins in between & how thats messed up. He walked away & came back and said okay sit here. He did my nails with an attitude, was aggressive with my hands, huffing & puffing, I mentioned something about the shape I wanted - his replay was "I know the shape" - MORAL OF THE STORY is my thumb nail gel peeled off the DAY I got home .. i felt it mushy that it was not done correctly & by 11PM when I was getting ready for bed it was half way peeled off .. I'm so angry and annoyed I wasted my time + money and now I have to go get it fixed and waste more of my time that I don't have !! I will not even return for my nail to be fixed , Illl go somewhere else. read more

The worst manicure of my life! Terrible job at shaping my nails, cutting my cuticles and painting my nails. The manicurist had to go back with a cotton swab to clean off the excess polish she got on the sides of my nails. This is suppose to be a professional nail service, I could have painted my nails myself and had less bubbles and clear polish on my cuticles! NEVER AGAIN will I go this awful nail salon read more

Blooming Nails Spa - Cuticles are not cut appropriately, Polish is bubbly and top coat is all over the side of my nail bed! - Nail Salons Near Me - Staten Island, New York

to start off, when i first sat down for my appointment 3 nail ladies asked if i had acrylics on. which i didn't and i told each of them it was uv gel. i didn't understand why they were so confused, especially since i went there for my nail appointment before this one getting uv gel. anyways. as the lady doing my nails was removing the gel, she kept filing my nails. which started to burn and made me very uncomfortable. i was on the verge of tears. then, since she made my nails so thin, my uv gel manicure didn't even last for a whole week because my nails were so weak that they all broke. now, 2 weeks later, majority of my manicure is chipped off and 1 nail is left unbroken. i SWORE TO MYSELF THAT I WILL NEVER COME BACK TO THIS NAIL SALON. read more

Very disappointed I did my pedicure today and it already chipped. My cuticles weren't done right. Pedicure was rushed.

Mixed feelings about blooming nails, if your looking for a nice pedicure and wide selection of polish colors you'd be happy. However the last time I went to blooming nails will be my last.The Woman who did my nails had a attitude from the moment she began you could tell she was just rushing to finish the entire time doing my nails.. While she was filing I corrected her and asked her if she could please fix them because they were all unbalanced (mind you these were my christmas nails) Some were longer than anothers and I had about 3 different nail shapes on my hand..when I asked her nicely to fix them she gave me more attitude and she told me " they cant all be perfect" I could not believe this was happening to me. No one wants to pay to get their nails done and receive attitude for expected a great service... I was so unhappy when I left I had to pay to get them fixed. Mind you I have never had such a bad experience like this before..to sum this up if your expecting great service and good quality work I would not recommend. read more

Terrible. I would never recommend any one to come here. I always make appointment when they open at 9:30 never open until 9:45 10. You walk in they don't know how to manage or schedule anything. Made appointment for my self and my mother and they took a new customer DURING my appointment asking for a new set of nails making me wait 40 min blaming it on the client. Spoke with manager said nothing she can do not a care in the world! RIP OFF read more

Giving three stars because I did have a pleasant experience. I paid $60 for gel mani and pedi, and my friend who got the same thing only paid $55? I also was charged an 8.8% fee for using a card, and I wasn't told that until I called and asked them why I was charged more! I was rudely told to pay with cash next time if I didn't like it. Not going back there. read more

I have been going to blooming nail spa since they opened.these past few months that I've been going there the service and professionalism has faded. The new nail technicians that now work there are not professional at all. They don't speak any English and they do very poor work. I felt as if they were talking bad about me today because she filed my nails so much that i started bleeding and now I'm in terrible pain and afraid that i might get an infection. The straw that broke the camels back was when i asked to get my eyebrows waxed,something that I've done there before and never had a problem. Today the girl put wax on my eyebrows and when she pulled off the wax she also pulled off half my eyebrow leaving me with a half of an eyebrow. I was hysterical crying and the only thing they did was return my $8 and told me to come back when the hair grew back. I was livid at this point, not even an apology or offer to compensate me for this horrible job. So i walked a few stores over to a place called ART OF THREADING. The owner Sam fixed my eyebrows and tinted them to cover up the horrible job done by blooming nail spa. WARNING: blooming nail spa is not blooming anymore. They just want your money for horrible service. read more

I went here to get my nails done and they charged $30 for gel. They literally cut my nails and then painted them I could do that shit at home by myself thats such a rip off and also they didn't check my temp or give anyone hand sanitizer when we came in and there were multiple people wearing no mask. It literally sucks here and they didn't even do my nails that good. I was sweating and felt like I was gonna faint the entire time. I will never come here ever again read more
