The establishment is nice and aesthetically pleasing. However, it is a bit overpriced. I believe I paid $49 for a gel manicure that did not even get a week's wear on vacay in Colorado without them chipping:/ I don't mind paying an up charge, as long as it's quality. This was not the case.
The first time I went to Honey, I was desperate. I needed to get my nails done asap for a plane trip in less than 6 hours and it was still during the higher highs of Covid in early November. By chance I walked in and was able to be seen by someone. I liked their policy of cleanliness and it shows in the upkeep of the salon. While I missed having water jets and whirlpools for pedicures, I prioritized not being infected. And the service is generally good. The prices are relatively high but you can get it slightly cheaper if you use cash (they have an atm on site) plus personally I think it is trade off for having clean service in the area but we have our standards As someone who doesn't usually go all out with nails , I could depend on getting a good gel mani pedi with great service here. Designs are very iffy as they don't list what things they can do on their site and they don't list prices for them or even as a general option. So if you come in (esp If you walk in randomly) you are at the mercy of what your available person knows even if you provide pictures/examples. But even if you have a manicurist you love, the online appointment menu doesn't list name so you might have to call to pick your specific one or choose tech a, b, c and etc (pictured) I liked honey so much that I went there for my first ever gel extensions (UV, French). I loved it so much, it lasted a long time and I got so many compliments on it. In general for the nails I get, I personally never had a problem with them being chipped too soon. But the reason I gave current grading is when I went to remove the gel extensions after 5 weeks (I would have filled them but I had to do a project that required me to use my hands). I set an appointment for it and I came on time for it. My manicurist did remove the top layer with a drill however to remove the rest she used a fake nail to PRY the fake nail from my actual nail. It actually hurt at a few points and had to say "ouch" later. Since it was my first removal, I learned much later that this was not the appropriate method of removal (should have soaked off instead) and it left damage on my nail and the service overall was not great and left a bad taste in my mouth. And I actually made an appointment for it. I don't know if the other people on staff or In the chain use this method but I wouldn't risk it. Overall I do think one can go there for a good mani pedi and Overall a clean environment but for more complicated designs and functions you should go elsewhere.
I know this place is expensive, but it is a truly beautiful salon which is hard to find. And yes they will literally charge you for every single tiny thing that they do, and I'm not in love with the products that they use, but it's the only fat Accessible pedicure bench that I can find and everyone is so friendly. I cried the last time I was there and they really supported me through it. I do wish they would get new colors. And I don't just mean because I'm sick of the old colors, but because the last three times I've gotten pedicures my polish looked wrinkly and seemed off.
The salon is spotless and everyone was lovely. My pedicure was beautifully done as well. My powder nails are another story. Firstly, I was charged for clear acrylic, gel manicure and design all separately ($140 total including pedi) which I've never seen before. Middle nail (short on purpose) chipped 3 days later - a week later this is what they look like. I've had this service done at different salons for years, not sure what the problem is here. Clear acrylic is visibly cracked on all nails as well.
Had such a great experience at my appointment today with Franny. I called on a whim for an appointment and was asked if I could possibly make it in 20 minutes to allots time for what I requested. Suffice it to say, I did not make it lol. I was a whole 45 minutes late- but thankfully there was a cancellation and I was able to receive my full appointment. Franny was very pleasant and the best part it she was able to read my energy (maybe) and see I just wanted peace and not make small talk. I was literally dozing in and out of my soak and pedi cure (I work 70+ hours a week) and just needed some R&R. It was great and the space was so tranquil. It was exactly what I needed. I noticed some guests highlighted the fact that this nail salon is pricer than most. That's expected for cleanliness, professionalism, skill, quality products and attention to hygiene. You have to pay for that level of luxury and care. I already booked my two weeks with Franny.
Maria is excellent and very detail oriented. I got a gel French manicure and a regular pedicure. Maria took her time and the results were excellent. The salon itself is lovely and very clean. This was my first nail salon experience since the COVID-19 shutdown and I felt very comfortable with the precautions taken at Honey. The price is a bit more than other nail salons in the area but I am willing to splurge from time to time to have someone work as meticulously as Maria did. I highly recommend Maria and Honey salon when you want to a neat, beautiful mani/pedi.
I had some free time and decided to stop in this nail salon to see if they had availability. I had to wait about 15-20 minutes, I didn't have an appointment so I was okay with that. I would recommend making an appointment beforehand because they seemed quite busy. The staff was very nice. I got a gel manicure that was done well and lasted about 2.5 weeks.
I wanted to love this place, but my nails look terrible. I'm so angry right now I want to cry! Amanda was nice and so was everyone else at the nail salon. However, her technique wasn't clean and my nails look unfinished and the surface is very rough! Not glossy and smooth. The service I paid for was a Gel Powder manicure (well over $75). Again, the employees were nice and the shop is beautiful. The technique is simply not there and I will return back to my old nail technician on Flatbush!
I really want to give this place a 5 star rating because the salon is absolutely gorgeous and the staff were polite. I definitely felt the environment fostered the pampering experience I was looking for. However, the nail technician was so rough with the file that my cuticles started to bleed and now I'm in pain anytime warm water hits them. The picture show the cuts on my cuticles and I pray they don't get infected. I told the technician she was being too rough and when she applied the polish, it burned. It might have been a language barrier, but she just said "the file" and kept going. I showed her my cuts before I left and she kind of laughed it off. I don't think she was being malicious, I just assume she didn't have the vocabulary to apologize. I don't know. I've decided to go with that to not feel like an idiot for being tortured for a manicure. My nails are absolutely beautiful minus the scratched up cuticles. I splurged and got the dip. Again, I'd give them a higher rating if I didn't have to perform first aid for the next few days and I pray I don't end up with an infection.
Went to the one on Livingston and horrible experience. Still in pain from skin burn. Staff was friendly but not as competent as other locations- for example-I provided a pic of my request and she simply forgot the design.
So I'll be real and say that some of the reviews almost deterred me from coming into this shop but I'm so happy I decided to check it out. Clean and very friendly - definitely feels like an upscale place! My nails look FABULOUS- exactly how I wanted them. Ask for Fiona if you need a UV Gel set!! Her attention to detail was spot on.
This place was very clean and cute! The staff was also very friendly and attentive, which made this nail experience excellent. However, my complaint was that my dip manicure did not last long. Usually dip on my fingers last me a good 2.5 weeks and these only lasted me one week before they looked dull, cracked, and chipped. The gel pedicure on the other hand lasted a good 4 weeks. I really liked the relaxing and pampering experience in the salon, but for the money paid I expected the nail polish to last much longer. I really wanted to like this place.

I'm definitely coming back here. I came on a non-busy day, not many workers in but was still serviced. Staff was pleasant. Do listen to the bad reviews! Check it out first yourself, they're so good they have a franchise. This place is clean, well designed, comfortable, they treat you like they've known you forever and it was my first time there. I walked in and ask for a pedicure, didn't have to wait a second! They already got to business on my toes. The ladies here love conversation. They offer drinks, are very careful with you and even help you out of your seat! My stylist had no problem doing little things for me (like giving me my phone and bag after I put it too far within my reach), honestly a dream come true! They are very sanitary, everything they use is for one time use, the music choice is superb IM NOT LYING This is my go to nail salon from now on! -worth every penny- read more
A beautiful salon. Very clean and crisp, plain simple decor. Everyone was very nice. It is a bit pricier than your average salon and I paid an extra $2 for the weekly polish, and it's been a bit over 24hrs and my nails are already chipping. Most likely will not be back. Biggest suggestion is bring cash, they only accept cash tips. There is an atm in store for .99 cents. For such a nice fancy salon seems a bit strange that you cant add a cc tip (The ginger green tea I got was very yummy!) read more

"I'm going to get my feet done...." My version of the sesame street song. So it's that time again and luckily this spot was pre-selected for me by someone very special ;). We arrive and are greeted with smiles and a warm welcome. As we identify what services we want the lady also ask our beverages of choice... really? Niiiice. It was too late for a drink (insert eyes here lol) so we opted for lemon/ginger tea with a lil honey and were pleased. While waiting for the tub to be at optimal temperatures, which they were we admired the place and the very calming mood we felt... the energy here is just right. Finally we're in the chairs and our teas arrive, a lil hot but the aroma filled the little section we were in and man did it smell good. So I was fortunate enough to have Maria provide my pedicure and aside from a few seconds of light tickles I am convinced that she is the go-to person at this spot. She was patient, gentle, and thorough throughout my experience. My pedi-partner didn't enjoy her experience as much but I'll let her tell her own story. Lol Finally it was time to leave and someone didn't wanna put his shoes back on yet because his feet felt heavenly and socks would dampen the feeling. Sigh, he did it anyway and was sure to tip Maria well... that someone was me but that's none of your business 0_o. This is my new spot and though I don't know the frequency in which ones goes, I might just wing it and pop up for a refresher as the need arises. Oh yea, one more time for the people in the back: MARIA is the BEST!!! Service: 5/5 Encounter with staff: 5/5 Prices: 4/5 Location: 4.5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Cash and credit happily accepted here...please tip cash if you can. read more

I really wanted to give this place a chance! Everyone there is so nice, and the salon is very clean. I got sns done and not even a week later three nails cracked. I went to the salon and got them fixed for free which was nice. But then before the two week mark TWO nails came off :( I already had them fix them. I'm not sure I want to go back. read more

Enjoyed a manicure, pedicure, and massage during opening week when they were offering 20% off. The pedicure room is gorgeous and a place to enjoy alone or with friends... love the bench seating (gross massage pedicure chairs should all be retired to a salon graveyard). It had a dry bar feel. I selected an Essie polish that required an up charge. It was worth it. It lasted on my manicure for at least 2 weeks before embarrassing chipping and my toes still look great 3 weeks later. My massage was great-- high pressure that hurt at the time but 2 days later, the knots that had been driving me crazy were gone. I joined the cash only points program because I live so close. Glad to have a pretty nail salon in the neighborhood. Only criticism is price. Why are Brooklyn manicures so much more expensive than in the ues? Honey is no different, but at least I feel there was value. The staff was really friendly and I will return. read more

Which nail tech is the most pleasant to have a good experience with?
Honestly, all of them.
What nail polish brands do they have?
I do not remember but I know they use very high quality.
How does it smell? Heavy chemicals and acrylic?
No scent at all. Not like those salons where the smell hits you as you open the door.
Hi, are the prices reasonable? I dont see any prices listed. Thanks
They are reasonable. $15 for a manicure. I don't remember other prices. I have to take their leaflet next time I go.
