The shop was really decent, there wasn't a long line. I showed the tech a picture of some marble polish but she said she doesn't do it, even though there were several tester nails with the same design. She gave me several crooked nails, I spent an hour later that night filing them even. She was rough with my cuticle, it was stinging like crazy. My partner got gel polish with Kim and it was great! Probably won't be going back.

I am passing through Worcester and was due to have my dip nails redone. Convincing my friend into getting her nails dipped I found friendly nails and they were open and available for walk ins on Saturday. We both got our nails dipped and I am very impressed with how thin and perfect they came out. I would certainly recommend them to anyone passing through/lived in the area. They came out thinner than I had them done previously, which makes them feel 100% natural instead of acrylic fake. Very kind people. Clean. Great color selection. If I lived here I would come here every 3 weeks to have them redone.

I was THE ONLY customer the entire time I got my manicure and pedicure. The two ladies were absolutely kind. They didn't overly talk to me but we chatted enough to form a comfortable bond. What a great time and great service. The East Coast prices are drastically shocking compared to TEXAS but they did an excellent job.

Staying at a nearby hotel from out of town and was long overdue for a manicure. After reviewing all the local places I decided to come here and I'm glad I did! The place is very clean and quiet, and the owner is very sweet and professional. She got the exact shape I wanted and the color is perfect. Would love to come here as my regular place!

Probably the best acrylic set I've ever gotten. Great shape and such a cute design. Consider me a regular now.

I think the picture says it all!!! I couldn't be happier!!! ... I'm always nervous about trying new nail salons but this place was right by where i just moved so i figured i would give it a try... a big thing with me is the crystals on the nails instead of rhinestones since they shine more ... they had everything i wanted and did them exactly how i asked without having to be annoying and ask for anything to be fixed!!!

I've been by Friendly Nails a bunch of times since I work right down the street. I recently stopped by for a walk in and had such a great experience! Everyone there was so nice and accommodating. I asked for dip ombré French nails and holy moly is that a lot of delicate work! I absolutely love them and will be returning, especially when I get my nails done for my wedding in 2020! Thank you Friendly Nails, you're awesome!

I am extremely picky about where I go to get my nails done... I just moved here so I've tried multiple salons and Friendly Nails is by far the best! Helen goes above and beyond to do what you like :) I show her pictures of what I want and she will work so hard to make sure you like it! She even mixed two colors together to get the color I liked. So so awesome you need to go here if you haven't!

French ombré nails with pink sparkles, square shaped nails. Full-set acrylic.

Beautiful full set acrylic nails! I wanted a French ombré style, with pink sparkles, in square shape, and I got exactly what I wanted! :-) (Image attached.) The owners/technicians were very friendly and responded well to my requests for little tweaks & details (I am a bit of a perfectionist). Thank you so much!

WORST NAIL EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD. Heard good things about their designs so decided to give this place a try. NEVER AGAIN! I asked for Marble, granted I did not specify which color marble I wanted but the nail tech took it upon herself to give me a rainbow theme... the example in the shop was nice even though not what I wanted as far as color, but it would do. I'm nail tech goes on to do something COMPLETELY DIFFERENT!! When I complain she Blames it on my nails being short........ NICE TRY. Poor effort and just lack of pride for her work. Take a look

It is a nice establishment. I went their in hopes to get a powder manicure. I was not too sure the price was worth the service provided. They were not that busy, but still took over an hour and fifteen minutes to get my nails done. Once completed, they didn't clean around my nails.

Friendly Nails KNOCKED IT OUT OF THE PARK for my graduation/Eras Tour nails! I got a dip manicure on my natural nails with gel designs. Helen did my manicure and perfectly replicated the inspiration photo I showed her. She was extremely detail oriented and patient to make sure her work was of high quality. It's been exactly two weeks since my appointment and my nails still look amazing. This experience was unforgettable as I almost never get my nails done professionally and it was exactly what I wanted for my events. I also got a gel pedicure from another nail tech whose nail I unfortunately did not get. She was also great and my toes still look near perfect! I will not be posting pics because people on the internet are weird, so you'll have to take my word for it. read more

This place has great reviews and rightly so! I was out of town and my nails desperately needed some attention. Lovely, clean shop, great cozy vibe and thankfully they were able to take me as a walk-in. Helen did a great job on my gel manicure, treated me very kindly and was so super-efficient. Price was great too. I will definitely come back here when I'm in town again. If I lived in Worcester this would be my go-to place, hands-down. read more

I made an appointment and called to say I was running late, they said it was okay. I ended up spending 4 hours in there, I will say the pedicure was really nice and all of the women working there were very kind and professional. My nails did not come out how I wanted at all and I'm pretty sure I was overcharged... kind of sketchy how the prices are not listed anywhere. I've never paid that much for my nails before but I didn't question it at the time cause I just wanted to leave after being there for 4 hours! I don't know if I will be back. One of my nails also chipped the day after?? read more

... I have been a client at Friendly Nails for 18 years. I have worked downtown Worcester as a paralegal for most of that time... And even when I worked in other locations...I still traveled to Friendly Nails...The few times I deviated and went to another location was only because I was on vacation or other circumstances, and I was disappointed every time I went anywhere else. The salon is immaculately clean, and there are not people everywhere...or other nail technicians ...except for occasional help when needed... it is owned by a sole proprietor-named Helen. As a result, you will not be breathing in fumes... and you are not treated like a number. I am very particular and from the first time I went until present, my specific requests have been met. Helen is absolutely lovely and highly skilled at her profession. There was one time, where she noticed that a small piece of dust landed on one fingernail... Before I even noticed... she immediately remedied the situation... Without one word from me. She is a perfectionist and that is a quality you want when you are getting your nails manicured or your feet pedicured. In addition to all of that, she is very efficient and quick. I couldn't even possibly say enough things in this small space. Just go there and find out for yourself. You'll love it. read more

So I recently moved into the Worcester area and needed a new nail place, I picked Friendly Nails because it was close to where I live. My experience here was fine it was very slow I was the only person in the salon. The woman who did my nails was very nice but very quiet my nails came out looking great. But after a day or two after the shine toned down a little bit I could notice spots where she had not completed painting the top coat onto the nail basically she was rushing, which I don't understand why she would be rushing because nobody else was in the salon and nobody else had an appointment time. All in all I would definitely go there again my nails did look good I just wish she would have taken the time 2 completely put the topcoat on my whole nail. read more

I have been going to Friendly Nails in Worcester for 3 yrs and have alway had the best experience!! Helen , Thao and Kim alway provide the best care . I always feel like I am on a mini vacation when I am there . Helen and the ladies pay attention to every detail and comfort to fit my needs and beyond . I enjoy our conversations and laughter while having a spa treatment. The customers that come in are usually lovely , kind and in great spirits for joinning in on the conversations. You may go into Friendly Nails in a tired and not so great mood , but you will leave happy and invigorated. It has been one of my great finds after moving back to Worcester. read more

I went to them to get my nails done for my birthday weekend and I was the only one there until someone else came in for their appointment. I made my appointment that morning later that day and they were able to fit me in. I got dip powder and tips and it was one of the best jobs I have ever gotten done! She did exactly what I asked her to do and the manager didn't question me once. Customer service was excellent and they really did a wonderful job.
