I was a little skeptical of all the amazing reviews, but I understand why now. you gotta go up to…read morethe third floor & to your left once you get up there. it's a small studio space, located at the very end of the hall, with 2 desks, Ting and another nail tech - which means, it's typically just you and another client. the office is well ventilated so there's no smell. they don't have any gel polish except for leaf gel premium. it was a very interesting experience for sure. I made a same day appointment, because I didn't know if I would be in that area. Ting was accommodating, even though I didn't book with her. I was booked with a student of hers. the nail tech was very detailed in her cuticle clean up. she definitely took her time making sure my extensions were done to the correct length. I did have to correct her in terms of design. I wanted it done according to the photo where it was on the pink, ring and middle & she started putting it on my middle, index and thumb. her line work wasn't bad, but definitely can tell where she stopped and started a line. also you won't get any treatments along with your manicure here, it's just the manicure - no lotion, no wax, but I am 100% fine with that as they put a lot of time into your nails. my only gripe was she put way too much glue under my nails. I ended up messaging Ting the next day who was willing to see me and to clean me up! she ended up apologizing & did a fabulous job grinding down the glue! I love the way my nails look & I'd 100% return next time I'm in the area!

Great job on the nails!! Loved it. It also did not take long. It took about an hour and 15 mins.read more

I want to say I've been going to Steph for my nails for at least 3 times so far but I feel like…read moreI've known her for longer One of my sisters introduced me to her because she saw Steph's IG with all these beautiful nail designs. At one point, I was not so happy at the one I was going to so I gave Steph at the Nail Bar a shot. Not only does Steph do an amazing, detailed, thorough job on the nails but she's the nail tech to go to, for any suggestions. I brought some ideas I found on IG to her when I had my appointments and she would ask me what I would like during the process. I'm fairly easy going and open to suggestions or recommendations, thus the beautiful nails on the pictures attached. - Prices are SO affordable compared to other nail salons - Apres gel extensions/fill ins - Skilled at designs - and a great conversationalist She has so much ambition which is one of the reasons I definitely love about her so her availability and bookings go FAST. She opens her bookings at the end of the month for the following month (check her IG for more info) Highly recommend her!!

I can't stop looking at my nails!…read more I've never done my nails outside before, so I was excited when my friend suggested doing our nails here. The spa is located on the second floor. Make sure to call to secure a spot, as they can easily get booked! The place is cash only, with tax if you Venmo/Zelle. The place was very chill, with the nail techs chatting with each other throughout my experience while they casually work their magic. I got the Gel Manicure ($40). They started off asking me to pick a color from a selection of books. Then the nail tech asked what shape I wanted, and began filing, shaping, and trimming my cuticles. Note to self and other nail newbies that nails need to grow out super long if you want square gel nails, to prevent the gel from touching your skin. The process was overall very relaxing, and fascinating for me to see the amount of care the lady puts into perfecting my nails. The process took around 1 hour 30 minutes, and even with my first time nails, the lady was chill and accommodated with patience, tips, and skill in making the gel manicure work on my short nails. Both my friend and I were very satisfied. My friend had the Regular Manicure ($15) and she noted how they added a finishing nail enamel spray, which other places don't do. Consider Arete for your next girls self care day!

Extremely Disappointed After 2+ Years of Loyalty -- Very Money-Hungry Business That Doesn't Value…read moreCustomers My sister and I have been loyal, consistent clients at this salon for over two years. Sadly, our recent experience has shown that they care more about money than treating their customers with basic respect and professionalism. I sent a deposit to secure an appointment, clearly expecting it to go toward the booking. At no point did I say it was a tip. The owner had previously canceled on me last minute, and I was understanding. Instead of asking for a refund, I chose to reschedule. When rescheduling, I was told a time with no clarification of AM or PM. Since I asked for the earliest slot, I assumed AM. I traveled from Brooklyn to Queens early in the morning and waited 45 minutes without a single response to my texts or calls. Hours later, I was finally told to come back. Frustrated but still loyal, I canceled other plans and returned--only to be offered a free manicure to make up for the mix-up. That day, my Uber costs alone were over $100--more than the cost of the service. Given all the inconvenience, I chose not to leave a tip, which is well within my rights as tipping is optional. I usually always tip, but not after that experience. Later, I was refused service completely--because I wanted to apply the deposit I had already sent toward a new appointment rather than let them keep it as a tip. Denying a loyal customer over something so small and unjustified is beyond unprofessional. This business lost two long-time clients over a situation that could've been resolved with basic communication and decency. If you value your time, money, and being treated with respect--go elsewhere And I'm happy you responded the way you did because you only proved my point more of how viewed your customers as optional and I wasn't valued as a customer after 2 years of loyalty and consistent tipping !
