Nails and pedicure

I am from CT. I went to this location because it was close to where I was. I requested purple color changing and ended up with two different colors. They did my toes and nails at the same time ( leaving no room for objections). I paid $82 and on my way out the owner stated "you can add a tip" although I clearly scratched it off on the receipt. Now embarrassed I added $5 tip and then he stated "$5 is for her?". I was so done, he talks to his employees and customers like they are stupid. Bad representation for the community and other businesses. Will not ever go back, absolutely ridiculous. Feel bad for the employees because they are nice and do their job.

First time SNS dip

First time I went here the owner (I think he is at least, it's the guy usually at the front) convinced me to get SNS dip nails instead of gel and I've never looked back. They seriously last so long, They last a month before I have to get them done again. My nails also feel healthier and stronger versus when I used to do gel. The SNS dip nails also don't chip like gel used to do for me all the time. I definitely only get my nails done by Amy. I'm sure the rest of the ladies are good too but I can only speak about my experience with Amy- she's gentle, really sweet, and does an amazing job each time. Great customer service, she makes sure I leave with exactly what I want.

I've been going here for about a year and I am very pleased. I've never been disappointed and I have had my nails done by everyone that works here. I only get SNS Powder. I've never gotten tips or fill ins so I'm not sure how good the other types of service is. They can get busy but they do take appointments. My nails don't chips and they last 4 weeks!

Still doing Great Work. I get the powder dip and it last for up to 3 weeks and more. Annie gets all my business. Make a appointment in advanced the place gets very busy. U won't be disappointed

This place is not sanitary at all. I wanted a gel manicure and a regular pedicure. Be prepared for Tommie to give you his best sales pitch on why you should get SNS (aka dip powder) where they dip everyone's finger in the same powder instead of using a spatula to scoop it out (yes- utilizing the spatula is the proper way of doing it). They don't have complimentary colors; meaning, if you get gel manicure and you want a regular pedicure in the same color they don't have it. Thus, I had to switch my color twice because I prefer to have the same color. Next, they use community nail instruments (see pic). The plastic holder with the instruments are the same instruments that they use with the person who sat before you without sterilizing them. After my pedicure was done, I watched my nail tech pick up the same plastic holder with the instruments she used on me to do someone else's manicure- HELLO FUNGUS FEET & HANDS. No, I don't have fungus feet but if I did, then it would've been easily spread. Lastly, there was residual toe jam in my toes and I asked my nail tech to remove it when another nail tech who looked over told me that's just the color of my toes. -_- No it wasn't sir. If it wasn't obvious, it's a one and done for me.

I've been going to Annie for over a year now and won't go to anyone else! She's always on point and my nails last for a month! I recommend Annie to my mother in law and 2 sister in laws and they're hooked! Also Tina and Maria do the best pedicures there!

SNS Dip with Tips

Absolutely love getting my SNS nails from here! Definitely an improvement from a year ago

I love coming here, it's not only close to my home but they are very friendly, place is clean. I have recently been going to Wendy, she does great work. Prices are also very decent.

I was very happy that I found this nail salon. The staff are very friendly they took the time to learn their customers names ( which is important to me). Also I love my nails!!!!!

Good service, the ladies there are great. They do get busy, always good to call ahead.

Look how thick the SNS is and how rough my nails are!!!

For starters, if you have a plane to catch try somewhere else. This place is surprisingly packed for the very poor service they offer. You will be waiting for hours at this shitty nail salon. Tony is the worst person there to do nails, he left the SNS MADD THICK and bumpy on my nails. My nails look like the side of Mount Everest. He saw and admitted how awful my nails looked and still charged the filling whopping amount. $70 damn US dollars for a manicure and pedicure!!! This was a huge rip off. I honestly wish my boyfriend was with me so he could've beat the shit of out this loser and get back my money. Thanks a lot for ruining my 4th of July vacation Tony! I will never recommend any one to this shit hole!

Terrible manicure re-done by owner after his employee had already done a terrible job with a different color

Ana is great! She shaped my nails perfectly, was not rough and worked quickly. I will ask for her next time.

This is a sister store of New Century Nails located on the opposite side of the street. The grand…read moreopening was around the first week of April 2025. It is the newest strip mall on the corner as you pass the Chase bank. They also have a parking lot behind the building for the customer, and I saw a massage bed. I walked in and was immediately greeting from several employees along with coercion for a higher priced service of Pedicure. LADY'S EXCUSE THE TERMS AND DISCREPTION, I don't do this often as you all. I looked at the list and took the $60 pedicure with massage and foam bath and did a manicure. A guy did my foot massage and manicure. :-I So, the saying is true when they say, " it's always a first time for everything". He did a fine massage a pedicure. I would most definitely appreciate a little more patience. I was trying to roll up my pants legs and he started rushing me to sit. They sat me in the massage chair and activated the massage, but I turned it off, it appeared to be broke, it only made noise like it was giving a massage without actually giving the massage. I did not make a fuss as there is a serious language barrier when you go to these nail salons and I did not feel the need to bother with complaining. The manicure that he gave me was fantastic. I have had several mani's. One thing different that was done, (another first) the guy put oil on the cuticles. He applied a base coat and cured it under a lamp and finished it with a gel. I notice that the gel last long and look entirely better than the regular finish. I got a 10% off and coupons for future visits.
