Sami and Maggie are great for gel-x fill-ins! Very meticulous service and fair prices.

Still my nail spot. Always grateful for how fast they are! My work schedule is always changing so I usually call an hour before, asking if they can take me. 90% of the time, they can! read more

I came here today for a gel pedicure. I was in and quickly which is good. The spa pedicure with gel was $68 which is pretty fair. They had a good amount of gel colors. I feel like the service was thorough and I like how my toes came out. They gave me a punch card at the end, so I plan to be back in the future. read more

This truly disheartens me to leave a one star review. Made an appointment with this location the day prior for a morning appointment. I asked for 1030 am and showed up a minute behind. Walked in and was really excited due to the design work that was posted. Well I was informed the lady wrote down 10 am for me so I was told to take a seat and they will be with me when they can. I sat for a few minutes and then asked will I still be able to get two fingers with designs on them. They stated I couldn't get designs or I would have to come back another day. At first I was like alright I'll just come back so I asked their next available time. It was for the following day at 1, I asked if it was earlier and she laughed in my face and stated you couldn't make it for 1030 am because it's too early for you. It really disheartened me due to the reason I was a a minute behind was due to having an emotional morning and as we know getting around in NY always takes long to do everything. Life is already hard enough and to have people that don't even take a moment to just be kind to someone is not ok. They really need to work on their customer service because it's a shame to treat people in that manner. Not only did they change how I felt, but this was supposed to be a wonderful experience since I was getting nail art for my spouse that passed to wear at his tribute. Extremely unfortunate. read more

I've been going to this spot for years and absolutely love this place. They always do phenomenal job and I've never left disappointed with the level of service. Highly recommend them!!! read more

I've gone here more than once to get a gel manicure, I've also tried powder dip, and I knew there was a reason that I stopped going. I gave them another shot about two weeks ago, and got a great job manicure. Came back today and it was so awful. First of all, there were fuzzy things on my nails as she was painting that I had to pick off. Then I looked away for a moment and realized she painted my nails and two black dots were stuck in the paint. She didn't take it off, she just kind of looked at it and kept trying to paint over it, however, she really should've filed over it or used remover to fix it. I am so annoyed that I paid $60 for this. They should be ashamed of themselves. read more

Do not go here. Extremely rude and unprofessional. They would not let me leave after I paid for my service.

The nail salon is usually packed, which means longer waits depending on how much of the staff is there that day. The staff is helpful and does a good job with gel and dip powder, as well as designs. read more

I will never come here again. I got the worst pedicure and manicure ever at this salon!!! The lady didn't even remove the old nail polish properly before applying the new one. The next day the new nail polish peeled off. I am livid!! The lady didn't even massage me with lotion. She was talking under her breath when I asked her for a 3rd coat and when I asked her to exfoliate in certain spots on the bottom of my feet because she missed them entirely. The colors they use are cheap and have particles in them. Never again!! **Edited to say that I just checked my credit card and they charged me twice!! They only gave me one receipt. Crooks!! I have reported this to my cc company. read more

Vicky is the best! Really nice and professional atmosphere and great prices. Highly recommended!

How does this place has 4 stars??! Moved in the neighborhood recently so I was looking for a good decent place to do my nails. Thought to give this place a shot. Let me start by saying that I sat there for about an hour freezing cold! Is a $$$ nail saloon. I ended up paying almost $100 just for my nails!! That's not the problem! I am willing to pay as much as needed but at least do them right. This lady put 2 pounds of gel in each tips and they came up looking thick and ugly. Asked for a color and no help was offered. Two of my nails weren't even straight. They kept talking in their language so disrespectfully! Walked out of there so unhappy. The cherry on top was paying 4% for the final amount and 4% on the tips!! Very very bad experience. 0 starts if I could. While I was there another girl was so terrified because they have to redo her nails a couple of times. read more

I got my nails done here back in august but forgot to review them. I got a set of tips here and the girl did a terrible job. They were bumpy and extremely high. They werent flat nails like other people get. The girl didn't file them down enough. I had to get them taken off professionally and it took 4 hours for them with soaking and drilling them off because the girl had them so thick. Definitely not worth the $80 j paid. The design came off 3 days later even though it was gel polish. read more

PLEASE READ BEFORE TRYING THIS NAIL SALON It is extremely unfortunate that I have to leave a 2 star review. Called to make an appoint after work and was happy when I found this nail salon. The pictures on Yelp made me feel like I hit the jack pot. Arrived a little before my appointment and was seated for my pedicure immediately. I opted for one of the more expensive pedicures because it was my first time trying this location. I wanted to be sure she used a little elbow grease and get the job done (if you know what I mean). But unfortunately I was left EXTREMELY underwhelmed. She didn't clean my cuticles at all.When it was time for the massage, it felt like she was just rubbing in lotion. Extremely unsatisfied. To top off this terrible pedicure, she used this unknown nail polish which chipped 2 days later. Onto my SNS dip powder. I told the young lady I had acrylic on my nails but she continued to put the foil on my fingers as if it was SNS. Needless to say, it took 1.5 hours for my nails to be done. I requested a style and when I realized the guy had NO clue what he was doing I stopped him. Again, 4 days later and my nails started to crack. Currently writing this review in the pedicure chair of a different nail salon redoing my pedicure. 2/10 - would not be back Complete waste of my money read more

Fresh M Nail & Spa - Powder mani - Nail Salons Near Me - Astoria, New York

My last two visits here weren't great. It took 3 hours to do a gel mani with design and a regular pedicure last week despite having an appointment, the woman who was supposed to paint a base color while I waited for Judy took an HOUR to shape my nails and barely touched my cuticles before doing a sub-par paint job, and I feel like Judy rushed through the design. On top of everything, my shoes were randomly moved while my nails were getting done which I didn't appreciate. The visit before this, a man who clearly wasn't certified to do nails was somehow allowed to attempt to fix a broken one and it looked horrible, even after Judy fixed it. He also did my pedicure which didn't even last longer than the day I got it and forced me to spend another $23 +tip to get them redone. I've been pretty consistent coming here for the last 8 or so months but lately it feels like the quality of service is dropping off. read more

Not a bad place. I showed them a picture on pinterest and they were able to achieve it. With that alone, I would probably give it 4 stars. The price wasn't bad for just the gel manicure ($30) but charging $12 extra for a few flowers seems pricey. Also, I wished this place felt more sanitary and clean... A lot of things were cling wrapped and were not wiped down between customers. I think disinfecting the pedicure/massage chairs and nail stations would be more sanitary especially during the pandemic. read more

I tried this spot today for a pedicure. The woman did not speak much English but was able to understand when I told her I was sensitive when she was a bit rougher than I would have preferred. She did end up breaking the skin next to my large toe when trying to clean the cuticle. This has never happened to me before after many pedicures in my lifetime. I showed the woman who did the pedicure and another staff member where a small amount of blood was visible after the Job was done. I didn't think she was very skilled and overall the pedicure was very basic without any massage that I am used to getting w a foot treatment and also there was minimal exfoliation. I was offered an apology upon leaving. I hope I don't get an infection. I don't recommend this place for a pedicure-I'm not sure about manicures since I opted out after this experience. read more

I live a good distance from Fresh M so have been reluctant to try it. SO GLAD I did because I love it. Not only do they have all the covid bases covered, but the service was great (my pedicure and foot massage was amazing) and my nails turned out phenomenal. Elaine hand painted my tips and they're beyond perfect - I've gotten compliments all day! I can't wait to go back, even if it is a hike to get there it's totally worth it! read more

But this place was clean and has taken all precautions to keep others safe! Sanitize hands upon arrival and plexi glass in each station. This place was awesome, loved the results of my nails they were supper cute. Also the Tea tree pedicure ohhhh my god left me as if I'm walking on air!!!

I was looking for a new nail salon since my nail technician moved out of state and it looks like a found it !!! I loved how Judy did my nails !!! As I'm a very picky person. Judy filed them as I wanted very squared and painted all the way to the top and all sides as sometimes some technicals leave a gap on top so they don't paint your skin (which I hate) If you get a gel manicure they don't soak your nails which I found very different but she overall took out all of my cuticle and it was fine. I'm giving this place 4 stars only because the technician that did my pedicure didn't really get into my toe nails as I wanted. Her touch was way too soft for my liking. I felt as if she didn't take off enough cuticle or even went into the sides of my toe nails to clear any dead skin or any somewhat ingrown nails ect .... I had to ask twice to get in there lol Although she was really really nice and professional. Prices are great $43 for gel manicure and normal pedicure. ($25 gel manicure, $18 pedicure) You also have a variety of gel colors to choose from which I loved but it's looks like they don't have the matching pedicure colors for every gel color. Another plus is the parking ..... Street parking was easy and no meters !!! No more running out mid Mani to feed the meter. Overall I'm sooooo happy I found this place ") read more

I have to update my review, I've been here a few times and it's always been 5 stars. This time, I asked for a 530 appointment, they asked me to come at 5 then made me wait till 550. Not only are my nails not square like I asked, they are all different lengths. Three different fingers were cut and left bleeding. I was charged $80 for rhinestones that were put on crooked and upside down. Not one nail matches. read more

I have been coming here for a very long time. I love everyone but I usually see Judy. She keeps my nails looking amazing. I show her a design and she replicates it like a true artist. They are very clean. Never, ever had an issue with a faulty manicure or pedicure. Nails always look fresh, proportionate, and I'm always complimented on how beautiful they look. In these new, post covid times, they follow all proper protocols. Distancing. Sanitizing. Wiping down stations prior to new clients being serviced. Cash and Credit are accepted. Highly recommend! read more

I love this place, and have for years. The negative reviews make me sad, because it's clear to me this salon works incredibly hard to make their clients happy. I came out here from Manhattan when I lived there because this place was 10x better than any place on the UES. Yes, you must call ahead to make an appointment. They are busy, because they are good! I do powder manicures, sometimes with designs, and their pedicures are divine. Recently, they renovated and it looks so nice! If you need to be out by a certain time, just communicate that to them and they will do their best. I really appreciate their attention to detail and if I've ever had a broken nail or issue with my manicure soon after a visit, they are always quick to fix. Go here! It's the best nail salon in Astoria (and I've been to many) read more

Simple, intricate, friendly staff! The salon was well kept; nice and clean bathroom, floors and overall nail stations/booths. Today was my first time here and my nail tech was Judy; She was focused, quick and precise! The prices were reasonable; for the dip with ombré design it was 50; for my pedi I'm not sure who my nail tech was but she was standard, no complaints here :) I'll do a re-review after a couple of days to see how they're holding up. If they can withstand the constant washing and the medication bubble packaging (right thumb always chips first) I will def be coming back. read more

But recently I've gotten Tom/ Tim/ Tm I honestly don't know his name Bc it's different on my card every time but he's GREAT! I do the powder manicure & I usually don't like men doing my nails bc I feel it's rushed and done sloppy but not with him. He takes his time he's very sweet and he makes sure you like everything as he goes. He's great I only want him to do my nails now. The place is clean they have plastic dividers at the tables and also at the pedicure stations and they clean and wipe down after each person.

Loved this place! Everyone does job taking care of the details when doing dip powder but the last two times I came my nails were cracking right away, within a week. Then one of my nails broke and I went back to fix it because I was very unhappy with them looking like that. I ask to cut them all with the same length so that at least they don't look so bad until the next time I come back to do them again. They charged me $10 for it. The color from the last time I came came off even more. I felt like they didn't handle the situation well since it was their previous poor job that they messed up on. They shouldn't have charge me that amount knowing the color wasn't going to last. It's better to re do them specially if I was just there a week ago. Im not going back because they don't know how to treat their regular clients well, even though I tipped them very well. I didn't feel valued as a customer. Maybe I'll go back and give them another try because right now I'm just disappointed. read more

Here is an update. I have never had a bad experience like this before. I always come here. Last time I came I wasn't satisfied with the service but I gave the place a benefit of doubt and came back again. The lady that did my pedicure rushed through the entire process. She only took 13 minutes. My toes were not file nicely. Some parts ever rough. There was no one behind me there is no reason for her to rush it. If I'm paying more money than before then why is the service worse than before ?? Will never be back again. read more

I have to say, the high reviews for this location is baffling. I made an appointment for a powder manicure/regular pedicure and got immediately sat which was great. Sadly, the quality of both of those services were horrible. Everything felt so rushed and it wasn't even busy. My pedicure looked like I did it. When he finished, I was actually confused. He painted on my actual cuticles. The white residue left from removing my original polish was all over my toes (all he had to do was wipe it off with remover). Didn't file them correctly so they're different shapes. Then, onto my powder manicure. I got a new man for this. He didn't do the basics of a manicure, like push back cuticles. He rushed through the powder process, and when he finished left me with hard powder all over my fingers. It has been one week and I have one nail half off, and four others that are completely chipped. A complete waste of my money. read more

Helen, Maggie, and Judy are to my nails like the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are to the Christian soul! Fresh M is currently the best nail salon in the Astoria/Ditmars area. Look, I'd really rather not write a review giving away all of my good salons so they get more customers and result in upping my wait-time.... However, this tiny shop is too good not to share. PROS: - Open later than most salons! Peep their hours - Fantastic powder gel manis. Plus, they use real SNS. And selecting your color is easy with a book of options rather than the 'Color Key-Ring of Hell' - Loyalty cards! Make sure to have your nail technician sign off on the loyalty card each time you go to receive a discount after 5 and 10 visits. Yes, they'll combine your cards when you forget to bring them each time. CONS: - There are only about 5 to 6 pedicure chairs and about the same of manicure desks (sorry, forgot to count!) so the wait can be a while during busy times like weekends read more
