Just moved to the area and was looking for a nail spa that did Gel x extensions. Luckily I stumbled on this place! It was cute, and they had so many good options. I got my nails done by Rose and my toes done by Susan. They both took very good care of me and made sure that I left happy with my services. I will definitely be returning! read more

Went in for a last minute nails. Clean and quick, the lady who did my nails was extremely polite, there was something I din like but I wasn't going to say anything but she recognized and encouraged me to open up if I din like something! Made me quite comfortable!!! I'd go there again !!! I got gel x , still going strong after 3 weeks ! read more

This was my first time going here instead of my regular place. I got SNS dip powder on my natural and they came out great! not too thick or bubbly looking. A lot of color options too for SNS. I will say that I was waiting for someone for around 20 mins but in the meantime, i got my soak off so it didn't seem long. Although it seemed like my nail tech was rushing, she did everything throughly and made sure i liked everything. I asked if they take card, they said yes but made me then pay via Zelle which I had no problem with but just thought it'd be something to share. If I don't have time to go my regular place I will for sure come back here. read more

I came in for a pedicure but ended up also trying the Apres Gelx. I was surprised at how affordable it was! This place is fairly priced and we walked in around 5. They were super accommodating and over all it was a great experience. The nail tech perfectly executed my vision. And gave me wonderful massages. She was a tad aggressive on my cuticles, but that is my fault for not speaking up! They even gave little gift bags with a towel and lotion. Is definitely come back here if I'm in town and need to get my mani and pedi! read more

They do great work very clean I really enjoyed the massage pedicure it's heavenly for 15 minutes worth every penny read more

Went 2 days ago for a mani- pedi. The two services combined took 30 minutes which is unheard of. My pedicure lasted 15 minutes. Everything was extremely rushed and my pedicure chipped after 12 hours. The only pro was that they had a variety of pretty colors for my gel manicure. My friend got a pedicure at the same time as me and they forgot to apply base coat to her nails which also chipped after 24 hours. Pretty disappointed with my experience at this salon. read more

This place has gone down hill since I started going here years ago when Jenny was the owner. She sold the place to a lady name "cookie" who cared so much about her clients and the service she provided. The place is now run by a younger woman I believe. From the few times I've been there, seems like they're uninterested in providing quality service or care. I haven't been in the area much since I've moved but on occasion stop in. I called one random day at around 915am to see if they were available for a pedicure. I lady answered and said yes but they weren't open until 930am. I said no problem I would be there at 930am. Arrived promptly at their opening time. Door was closed, lights off, no one in the place. I went back to my car and waited. 945am I returned, two woman working in the back. Looked at me and returned to folding towels. No one greeted me or told me to have a seat. I browsed the limited polish section and had a seat. After a few minutes had gone by a group of about 4-5 workers entered. Once they settled in one of them acknowledged that I was there for a pedicure. She asked me about three times if I wanted a manicure too. Very pushy. The pedicure was okay and lasted. The technician was nice. A few weeks later I decided to stop at 930am to get a mani and pedi. They ladies in the hair salon area were there but again at opening no one in the salon area. I and another woman waited, after 15 minutes I just decided to leave. This new group of owners don't care about their business and being on time. I don't care enough to give them my business. read more

I loved how my nails turned out. I dont do my nails often and always look at pictures to show as an example, but this was the first time it truly came out just like the picture I showed and on the first try. Wish I got my manicurist name because she was amazing. The shape, design, and suggestion on color was spot on. Only thing that knocked down a star is that everything took a long time and a lot of waiting between the mani and pedi, but hopefully that was an unusual occurrence (although from reading reviews its a trend). Either way, I loved the final product. read more

I wanted a regular manicure, and ended up at the salon for 2 hours. My appointment was at 11:00, they didn't seat me until 11:30, when my nails were soaked in acetone. I sat there for nearly an hour before the tech came back to finish the manicure. My nails were destroyed, it's been more than a month and they still haven't fully recovered. Definitely will not be coming back. read more

I've been here a couple times before but I will never be coming back. I had an awful time with this nail salon this morning. I made two 10am appointments and they didn't see my mom for her FULL body massage this morning until 10:30. 30 minutes is way too much wait when you have an appointment. Then, the woman who did her massage did not even do full body - she did only the back from head to legs. No feet - when asked, the woman said she needed to separately book a pedicure for that..?? For a full body massage...??? For an hour? She didn't do any of the front body either. Just awful. She also said my mom should wax her body hair..... which is extremely disgusting, rude and unprofessional. The workers often speak to each other in their own language which is very very rude. For some reason there was a man who did my nails today - I've never seen him before and I felt weird and uncomfortable and was in an awkward position where I didn't feel safe to say I don't want him to do my nails.... And no one else was there beside me. 4 other ladies were there and they made me go to the man? He did a very average job, and went for a smoke break as my nails were soaking which I personally found unprofessional. Never coming back here again. He barely put the lotion on my hands and did not do any of my upper body massage either. Just very bad terrible service. I don't recommend anyone comes here and I definitely will not be back. read more

Wonderful service. My little one and I came here on a weekday while she had a day off from school. The salon has a weekday Mani-pedi special for $22, which was $15 for kids. It was my daughter's first time getting a pedicure, and they were very sweet and gentle with her. She felt like a princess! As for me, a relaxed mom is a happy mom. I was impressed with the cleanliness of the salon and the bright-- yet aesthetically calming --interior. There's a flat screen TV showing local news, and it was just audible, not overpowering. My bestie was with me as well, with her daughter. She found put mid-mani that they also do root touch-ups for $35 (hair salon in the back!). Well, she gave it a try.. whisked her to the back, applied the dye, and brought her right back to her seat to finish her nails. I don't live near here, but my bestie does, and we've already agreed that we would come back to this place to give them our business. Clean, inviting, and if needed... A one-stop-shop for hair, nails, and other beauty treatments. read more

Service is really nice and the place is very modern. I love the chic and glamour look. The pricing is a little about Average but it's worthwhile. read more

Let me start by saying the finished product came out well! However they started my nails with someone that didn't know what they were doing and they broke 4 of my nails. However then Cindy was able to fix them after they were overly filed down. I'm not sure the name of the girl that did my lashes but she did an amazing job on that. However I was charged 95$ for a UV gel set that should have been 75 max after they broke my nails and I had yo have shorter nails because of it. I would have gone back to do my nails with Cindy if I had not been overcharged especially since I did three services. I however do recommend the lash lift. read more

DIVA Beauty & Spa - The nails - Nail Salons Near Me - New Hyde Park, New York

This is by far the best nail/lash salon I've been to! I'm incredibly picky about where I go for my nails and lashes and they do a beautiful job with both. I was initially unsure about going to a nail salon to get my lashes done but Yumi does an incredible job (and she's super friendly and accommodating. I've seen both her and her husband-as well as the rest of the staff-go above and beyond for customers). I understand what others have wrote about having to wait but I think it's worth mentioning/considering that they are a business: they try to accommodate appointments as best they can, but sometimes there are walk-ins, people are late to their appointments or no-show, or end up requesting more extensive services than they requested originally. I've seen this numerous times when I've been there and the technicians do their best to accommodate everyone and are super apologetic when they run behind. In terms of the technicians speaking in their own language (mentioned in a previous review)...I'm not sure why this is a problem. People speak different languages and the expectation that someone will speak in English (especially when speaking to one another and not the customer), is a bit odd to me. Definitely come here! They're amazing and I can't say enough good things! read more

I found this local nail salon last month last minute and decided to give them a try. I went on a Sunday morning where there wasn't much traffic which was perfect for me. I got a pedicure spa which was also very relaxing and got an acrylic set done. My nails were done by Yumi and I LOVED them! Overall , they give great customer service and are all very welcoming once you enter the salon. Yesterday, I went back and Yumi was luckily able to squeeze me in to get a new set done by her which came out so good!!! I will attach images of the sets that Yumi did on me for reference. Definitely glad I found my go to spot now ! :) read more

Had a good experience for my first time. This place is definitely affordable and I left very satisfied. My apres gel-x looks great and I don't think I'm going back to anything else. Gel polish is an additional $20 to any price but it still beats other places I've been. It's also an amazing spot for a spa pedicure! (I did mango and my sister did honey scented) . The only downside was the person who did both of our hands and feet were a bit rough with the cuticle cutter and both of us had cut up cuticles that got sore for a day or 2. I hateeee when that happens but the overall experience was good! read more

Horrible service. The ladies just rush. I've been here 4 times and I've requested dip powder. Every single time after the service around 1-2 days after my nail is broken because it's so brittle from being drilled or the powder is peeling on the top or the powder isn't even placed all the way to the nail edges so you can see my nail bed still on the sides & when I go back in to ask for it to be fixed, they tried to make me pay and still request a tip after messing up the first time. the last time I went , I've always asked them to gently file my nail not just drill it down even when they soak off. They don't listen. My nails would burn with the drill. Now that my nails are off, you can feel a prominent ridge where the nail is growing in because of how much they drilled my nails. I kept telling them stop each visit , just file because my nail itself is so brittle and the nail keeps breaking. I get told I'll be easy and fast. Ridiculous. Horrible. Never again. unless you're getting a service that's extra $$$ or designs or a regular they've known. Don't expect to get much attention or care because it'll be about how fast they can get it done and have you go. Go spend your money somewhere else. read more

Loved my dip powder nails. But the top shine coat chipped off about a week after. And left the nails looking unkempt.

I love this people ,they're best. Highly recommended. Will never get my nail done anywhere else

I would give zero stars if I could ! They don't clean their hands in between patients Also very unorganized .. made me wait for a manicure for 45mins and then told me we forgot or the other girl didn't let them know . How inconvenient and disrespectful of my time . I gave them a second chance to come Back and fix the bad job the guy their did .. but they fucked up again .

NEVER AGAINN!!!!!!!! I had the worst experience I have ever had getting my nails done in my LIFE I always come here I loved coming here but today I will never come back. They will never get a dollar out of me today I was experiencing discrimination at the All Time Low I was overcharged $95 for a fill-in for gel extensions, they refused to let me use more than two colors. They refuse to let me pay for a rhinestone. The owner with the red shot hair said the women who did my nails was simply done that they didn't have time I was there from 12 PM to 3 PM for a fill in although they close they close at 7:30 pm absolutely atrocious disgusting service I asked the owner why can't I put a rhinestone on my nails I am willing to pay and she said that they will not because they are finished ? Took 3 hours for something so repulsive I want to literally ripped my nails off also while I was getting my nails done. They cut my nails a few times with the tool they use and I told them that it hurt and they just laughed and spoke in there language originally when I walked in I asked how much would it be for a fill and they said it would be $76 towards the end. They charged 95$ for this horrible work, allegedly saying that the French manicure cost $10 more I gave them 100$ CASH I got one dollar back but they didn't give me five dollars back never come here if you want a good experience you will not get that these people have no empathy towards humans. They are here to rob you run for your life and never look back. I'm sad to say that I had to write this but today I was treated like an animal. I've been doing my nails for over 25 years and I've never been denied of buying anything. I feel like I was personally attacked and overcharged for a design that actually looks atrocious. I asked her if they could at least draw a star a little design Maybe a rhinestone says that she is it done. She's finished it's too much work for her they don't take their time they cut your fingers and they do not do anything remotely appealing please and never go here in your life. The owner with the red hair is a nasty human being and should be nicer to there clients I was treated like an animal read more

Recently went to DIVA for the first time. I made an appointment for a manicure with Cookie but she ended up having someone else take care of me (for whatever reason, I don't know). However, Anna was really great. She gives an amazing massage but I would recommend her more for a pedi than a mani. Isabel did my mom's mani/pedi and she was also satisfied. CON: They don't use disposable stones, filers, etc and I didn't see them clean the tools after they were used. read more

So I've been going here for years now and honestly I USED to love it. Once they reopened after COVID-19 it has changed tremendously. For 1. They're under new management 2. My appt was at 6 pm, I ended waiting an hour for a regular manicure pedicure which she painted horribly. 3. They were definitely over occupancy while I was waiting, way too crowded 4. They didn't put the plastic wrap in the pedicure tub!!!! Disgusting Overall idk if it's the new management or they just got lazy. But this place definitely has lost its touch. I miss cookie!!!!!! read more

to start off I booked An 11:30 appointment For my daughter and myself, I wanted full set dip. She got gel set. We ended up waiting until 12:20 My nail tech used the electric filer it hurt one of my fingers. she left bumps in my nails made them different sizes and different shapes I am so unhappy with my nails... I don't recommend this place read more

Came in on a Friday morning, around 11:30. I went right into a chair for a full set manicure. But not even 5 mins later it seemed to get more crowded (im assuming since school is out, as they were mainly younger girls). The owner Cookie was honest about wait times and made later appts for a couple of them. The salon is nicely decorated with stone and nice woods, white Christmas lights and a lot of cute little accent pieces. Very clean. There's a small area toward the back to do hair but I've never seen how well they do with that. I always like how my nails come out. I've done SNS, UV Gel Tips, Acrylic and Regular gel mani's. Mon- Weds 20$ Mani/ Pedi specials ! This is my local spot. read more

Went in on Friday at 2:15, got a seat right away. They have a variety of colors to chose from. I chose a nice pink shade, however it was light. When painting my nails Stacey only did 2 layers, which makes the outline of my nails visible. 5 days gone by and one of my nails chipped. The hair stylist in the back was very very loud, all the nail people were getting irritated. Besides that, it was pretty good. Their color gel is only $20 which is cheaper than most places I've been too, I will be back. UPDATE: went in on a Wednesday evening with my friend, and hour and a half before closing. I got a tips set and a pedicure. The pedicure was so terrible (paint barely on nails) I had to come back the next morning and make them redo it. The tip set lasts me about 4 days before a nail came off. So disappointed and probably will not be coming back for a whike after this experience. read more

DIVA Beauty & Spa - Color gel done by Stacey. Color was very faint. Disappointed - Nail Salons Near Me - New Hyde Park, New York

I used to like coming to this nail salon however, I'm DONE coming here. 1. The wait time is ridiculous, even on a slow day. 2. The owner, Cookie? Expects you to give a bigger tip... why would I want to give a higher tip IF I waited 30+ minutes when there was no one ahead of me and the service was subpar? I rather go somewhere knowing I'm getting quality service. read more

I've been coming here for a few months now. I really like the owner Cookie. She's always in a good mood and always takes her time on my nails. The powder gel manicure is $25 which is a really good price. I wish the manicure lasted longer though. After exactly 2 weeks it starts to chip pretty bad, but for the price I guess I can't be too upset about it. There aren't many color options for the powder gel but every time I go I notice she has 2 or 3 new shades. One thing I don't like is that there's always a wait. I always make an appointment and I still have to wait 30+ minutes. Also if you've previously done a powder gel manicure, they make you soak your nails for 30 min so make sure to get there early, and definitely don't come here if you're in a rush. Another con is the parking. Street parking can be difficult to find sometimes and it's metered so you have to pay attention to the time and be sure to go out after an hour to feed the meter, or park further. I believe it's free on weekends though. I've gotten pedicures also (each time with someone different) and I never have any complaints about it. They also do eyelash extensions, body waxing, and hair (color, blow out, etc) but I've only been here for nails. I will continue to go back because they do a good job for the price. read more

Was planning on going in to get my nails done today. I've paid $40 in the past for a powder (SNS) manicure on my own nails with a basic almond shape - which is they shape my nails are currently in. I tried to make an appointment today and was told that they are now charging an additional $5 just to shape your nails into any shape basically other than square. I find it to be absurd to charge to shape nails when you're already paying to have your nails shaped, cleaned up and painted - shaping is a part of the manicure and should not be charged extra for. This feels like a money grab and I won't be going back. read more

So this is my first time coming here to this nail salon and all I have to say is I'm very impressed. The staff is very nice, the place was very clean and organized, and the lady who did my nails was so sweet and did an amazing job. Definitely coming back to get my fill-in. read more

DIVA Beauty & Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - New Hyde Park, New York

TLDR: If you want consistently great service, this is not the place. Making an appointment here doesn't really matter. I always have to wait at least 30 minutes before anything happens here. Sometimes I've had to leave. I've been here for up to 3 hours at a time having only had one service done so they can either stop for a new walk-in or "appointment"...if I had an appointment first is it necessary to stop me in the middle of my service? And I had to wait because I was soaking with clips and foil on my nails or glued on long tips waiting for acrylic. Also, when you ask for a certain service, you are met with a lot of resistance. I get that most places try to up-sell you but this is different. I'll ask for a certain shape nail and be met with "why?" If I'm paying for a service and know what I want, is that really a question I need to answer? They even cut my nails too short the last time I was there so they didn't have to do the ballerina shape I asked for. Really? If they were to treat you with respect for your requests and time every time then they would deserve more stars. But they definitely don't. So if you have three hours to spend to get a mediocre service, this is the place for you. read more

I came here after an extensive Yelp search. I saw that the price of SNS powder gel here was outstanding -- $25. That's a steal, considering most places on Long Island and Queens charge $35 and up. I trekked it here on a rainy Friday afternoon for a gel manicure and a polish change on my feet. I called ahead of time (around 12:50 pm) to ask if there was a wait. I was told that I could come right in. When I arrived about 20 minutes later, I noticed that every technician was busy, which meant I was going to have to wait. That's fine on a Friday, but wish I had been told that on the phone. I sat for a bit and got taken first by one of the techs to do the polish change on my feet. It was super no-frills, and I only did that because I am currently recovering from a foot surgery. After she finished up (fairly quickly), I had to wait for another tech to come over and take care of my manicure. This is where I started to get annoyed. I was taken to her station, where she exclaimed I needed soaking. Well, obviously. I had a previous powder gel done on my nails. She proceeded to use the little saw thing (still don't know the name for it) to file down the top coating and then covered my nails in acetone-soaked cotton balls, finished off with clips and plastic gloves. She then proceeded to walk away for a HALF HOUR while she did a pedicure! That's insane. It doesn't take THAT long to soak. Plus, with the clips, forget about trying to use your phone, so I essentially stared at a wall for 30 minutes. She also made me get up and out of the chair numerous times, switching my bag and my crutches around, seeing quite clearly that I have a surgical shoe and crutches, so that she could start the soaking process for another customer. Maybe you can just put foil/acetone over the other girl's nails at the table right next to you instead of making someone who can't walk get up and down many times? At this point, I start to realize that the powder gel selection is not at all what I expected. They had ANC powders, but almost no SNS powders. I had to get up myself to get a box full of gel colors, which had way more selection. I was then handed the powder gel color selection, which was scarce. They had maybe 20 color options? None of them stood out to me whatsoever, so I decided to switch to a color gel manicure for $20. At least they had more options. When she finally did the manicure, it was fine. I really liked my color selection and the price was reasonable. However, I was not at all happy when it started to chip at the edges of my nails ONE DAY later. That just isn't acceptable. Plus, there are salons way closer to where I live that charge 20 bucks for a color gel manicure. This place didn't do it for me. Maybe this was an off day, but I don't care to go there again to find out. read more
