Only did one star because I can't do 0. Not one to leave reviews EVEN when the service was bad but this is just atrocious. Moved from Atlanta ga to New York recently so this happened to be the first nail salon to service me since I moved here. They advertise their prices like every other nail salon does so that's not new. The problem started with the quality of work which was just sad. Anyways I had them take off the design because it looked literally like a child had a paint day on my nails. While I'm trying to pay they raised the prices so I'm saying "no ma'am the prices show bla bla bla" and I show her the price in the store they advertised. Missy miss gonna get an attitude and tell me "it's my fault for not asking her". I understand I can ask but for a person who doesn't like asking stupid questions when my eyes are fully functional and I see the big a** sign NO IM NOT GONNA ASK tf. Anyways so on top of that they wanna charge for the design PLUS charge length when I literally have shorttttt a** acrylics. I'm sorry but I'm not paying an extra $20 for something that's either ugly, I had taken off, I didn't get all together, wrongfully advertised or any combination of what I listed. And to tip after that??? Bye. I have no issues with paying however the disrespectful techniques to try and resolve the issue was so unprofessional that it's absolutely disgusting. I won't tell y'all folks what to do, I'm just sharing my experience and if you want to have a similar encounter to me, be my guest child. Y'all be safe out there PS I know the white spots in the pink acrylic look like glares but y'all there's pockets of acrylic missing on my nails. And the 15% first timer discount is not for everyone if you didn't know, they pick and choose 08/16/2023 I tried painting a nail last night to see how it would look if I did my entire hands but I won't say much else. I'll just leave pictures. ‍ ** Tried to show how some nails were lifting and while trying to capture the gap the nail popped off so I'm not going to fatigue any other nails for this to happen again but y'all get the point and it hasn't even been a full week yet**

Relaxation at best
Marissa M.

Grace Nails is brought to you by the good folks of the Dominican salon Impressions Hair Salon next door on Francis Lewis Blvd. Grace used to style my hair back in 2010. She was the weave slayer and could hair dress fabulously. Her husband Gregory is now doing another fabulous job running this posh nail salon. I planned a nail date with my fellow Yelper Sasha.B and felt Grace was the perfect salon to kick off our evening of relaxation. The atmosphere was very calming with the changing dim LED lighting, aromatic eucalyptus and lavender. There was gospel music playing and it was for once QUIET and peaceful. We were even provided complimentary red wine! Gregory greeted us and we picked our colors right away. Gregory was very welcoming and professional, however, our Nail technicians were not. They did not appear to want to provide the service or have a conversation. It was 5:45 p.m. and while I know they had a long day, we were the only 2 clients besides 1 other regular getting an acrylic service. My pedicure was done well. I appreciated how the cuticle and nails were cut accurately. But what I didn't appreciate was not being asked if I wanted callus remover or anything else relating to the pedicure. My tech was very quiet, taking phone calls, texting and clowning around with the other technician. After a while it took away from the experience. All in all, the quality of the job was well done. Luckily, after the pumice and pomegranate scrub I did not need callus remover. The towels were steaming hot and clean. That's more than I can say for these local rinky dink salons. I really like how sophisticated and modern this salon is and that is where they really score stars. The seats were comfortable and the service Gregory provided was exceptional. He went above and beyond as a manager. I usually pay $21 for a Mani Pedi at my home nail salon in Jamaica, so paying the $18 with the 15% Yelp offer was pretty good for this experience. I really wish they were open later. I saw 4 customers turned away at 6:30. We were informed they take their last client at 6. This business is very strict about punctuality and going home early VS making an extra dollar. LADIES! Come early or be turned away. For a posh, relaxing ambiance it was worth it. I plan to visit again in the near future for the Happy Hour Special during the day and I pray that the ladies work on their professionalism and more appropriate client service skills.

Drying my nails
Caretta M.

I am currently sitting in this nail salon, waiting on my toes to dry. My sister and myself met up here a few minutes before 6pm to get our nails done. Long story short, the staff left my sister to sit and soak her nail gel off for about an hour and a half to 2 hours. No one asked her how she was doing, no one attended her. It was not until 10 minutes ago at 8:10pm, that the same woman that sat her down asked her to sit in her chair. The whole time I have been here, I am watching and observing everything. They spoke bad about us in Spanish, they gave us several side glances, and this was because I kept checking on my sister because she was neglected and no one was helping her. We never cursed anyone out and we did not partake in any kind of ratchet behavior. I watched as everyone was helped except my sister. I don't understand stand the kind of dislike that someone must have and this was a bad observation for me. I don't believe we need to raise our voices and act a fool, just to get service. I will never step foot back into this establishment. I don't recommend anyone with a humane spirit to come here for service.

Loving my dipping powder manicure & got the paraffin wax to perfect my manicure experience.

This is a peaceful establishment. The owner, Gregory, is very attentive to every customer who walks in. My go to nail place!!!

I came here because I was in desperate need of my hair and nails done so I went to her hair salon and luckily while getting a wash and set you can dry your hair in the nail salon. I got a gel mani and this is how it's looking exactly 5 days later. I don't do any labor so I'm so confused. Oh and let me not forget to mention they are super aggressive while doing manicures literally all my fingers were bleeding smh. Never again

This place gets a strong 3 stars because the ambiance is decent, they do nails well and they offer wine; the best way to un-wine in my opinion. If you're not particular then maybe this review wouldn't interest you. I got here at 12 in the afternoon and I noticed that it was a good collection of acrylic dust around the work station; it's quite obvious that they don't clean the stations at the end of the night. I wasn't too fond of the fact that they feel it's necessary to talk amongst themselves as if they've never seen each other before. I'm not talking about a few words here and there; one of the nail techs came over to have a full on conversation with my nail tech. In my mind, I'm like can this wait ? It just seemed very unprofessional. My nail tech was very aggressive with the nail file. She scrapped off a good portion of my skin; I mainly noticed it when i went to wash my hands and at the end when they sprayed my finished gel mani with alcohol (yikes!)- it burned ! Overall the gel mani came out nice and I appreciated the wine offer. I wished they wouldn't converse with one another when they're with a customer so intensely, clean their work stations and to be mindful of the aggressive hand filing.

Full set

This is my go to spot for my nails even after I've moved away from the area. I've gotten full sets, manicures, pedicures, and my eyebrows done once here. I'm pretty much always satisfied with the full set. Comes out nicely and lasts about 1.5 weeks but I've had a couple instances where the technician has cut me with the buffer. Same for the manicures. The only time I left here disappointed is when I got my eyebrows done here. My brows were uneven and way too thin. The manager is really warm and professional, I like him a lot. The technicians are nice. The polish choices are plentiful. Parking right in front.

Went here for the first time yesterday and they did not disappoint me. Not only was the service great but they are very clean and sanitary. They practice social distancing very well by cleaning the chair and work space and using fresh equipment between each client. I highly recommend this business.

Polish wall
Sasha B.

Often times the word spa is overused so I'm always pleasantly surprised when I am given a spa like experience at a local salon. I was invited by yelp beauty Marissa M and after a long day it was the perfect way to catch up and unwind. Location: The salon is right in the heart of Hollister where I grew up so it was nice to revisit my old neighborhood. It's easily accessible by the 2, 77 and dollar cabs for those who commute publicly. It's strategically located right next to a hair salon and beauty supply. Great way to grab potential clients. From what I understand Gregory the owner is married to Grace the lucky lady the slain was named after who also owns the hair salon next door. Ambiance : Absolutely . The salon is beautifully decorated. It's elegant, chic and soothing. A mild scent of peppermint and lemon emanates throughout. Furnishings appeared to have been carefully chosen and every piece is exquisite. Lights are dimly lit, the music is subtle so are the pieces throughout that brought me to draw the conclusion that Gregory was Christian/saved and proud to share that. The towel pyramids add an extra touch and details come together to give this space a real high end feel. I love that there wasn't a huge obnoxious tv blasting and bombarding the space and peace. I was taken away; happily so. Yes, Hollister has a a salon/spa. Service Gregory is such a gentleman and so hands on. I love the way he carries himself and is involved with every area of the business. He was very welcoming, helped us to pick colors and offered us something to drink. Yes please, (wine)me up! While Gregory gives me high end the staff, not so much. Zoila was great on the pedi. She took her time to clean up my feet and paid great attention to detail. She scrubbed with vigor and I had happy feet. My hands now that's another story. I started off with Elizabeth. Elizabeth swears she doesn't speak English but something tells me that's just a way to stave off conversing so I am at her station for over an hr but we can't build rapport. She shaped me nails how she wanted and began to paint them without cleaning them up. I had dried up crusts of gel base coat yet she began to apply polish so it was messy. I had pieces of skin hanging from almost all nails. At times she yanked on my skin with the clippers despite me saying ouch several times. I'm b gonna assume "ouch" is comprehensible in all languages. Como se dice ouch en espanol? She had to tend to another customer but she didn't excuse herself, she just got up and sent over Mariella who quickly noticed my nails needed cleaning up and tended to them, much as gracias Mariella . The gel polish after 2 rounds of uv light were not dry, 3 times , 4 times. Yikes ! I was getting tired and frustrated. Final recommendation: I say go but brush up on your Spanish prior to. Def have Zoila do the pedi and pray Elizabeth is not on the phone while you get your mani. Enjoy the ambiance, drink wine and choose a pretty color . Life is short to have boring nails. Gregory, you've got something special here. Think about getting some more techs, some that are highly trained and professional and think about getting them at least a cute tshirt or smock to make things look more profession.

The last shapes my nails nicely and the nail technician understood when my nail needed some corrections. However, the nail polish was applied very sloppy . The pedicure was well done though . The wait was 1 hour, and a lot of people were in the salon when I walked in (I came at 11, they open at 10) the salon is clean and has nice decor. Prizes are good. But, the work was sloppy . The nail technician didn't even wash my hands just dusted it off.

I just so happened to be in Queens visiting someone that lives up the block for the day when I got them done.

I've been going to Claudia for lashes since 2021 in Flushing and was soooo happy when she found a…read moreplace to operate out of that was closer to me (Long Island). The space is big, clean and cozy. The beds are comfy and they provide bolsters to prop your legs on and blankets to stay extra warm. Claudia is so gentle that I'll just drift off to sleep in minutes and she always checks up on you throughout the process (when I'm not sleeping). I have friends who go to the other girls that share the space; it's nothing but positive reviews and everyone is so sweet. If you're looking to get microblading/SMP/lip blush done, you need to go to Carrie. I have no personal experience with it but I've seen her work and she just has this gift of enhancing your features.
