    Visited Jinsoon per a friend's recommendation. It was actually the first time I've ever had a pedicure done so I was really nervous and had no idea what to expect. With that said, it does also mean that I have nothing to compare this experience to. The nail salon has a really nice aesthetic and gives a cozy feel when you walk in. We had the first appointment of the afternoon, so it was a little confusing as there were many clients waiting around but the workers were all moving around trying to get ready to start the afternoon appointments (at least that's what I assumed?). My friend had recommended specific technicians to book appointments with, but unfortunately they were both unavailable at the time I wanted. You go in and they tell you to look at the wall of polish to pick one out. As a newbie, I had no clue what I was looking for (aside from color). I did hear someone else ask about whether certain types were quick dry so I ended up just picking one out from there as well. The overall pedicure seemed to go way faster than I expected. I'm not sure if it was because my toenails were already fairly short so she didn't have to spend much time filing them, but I was the first in the whole group of people to be finished (understandably, some of them might have gotten different treatments), but I just didn't expect it to be that quick. I thought the pedicure looked great on the first day or two but as my nail started to grow out, the polish started to peel near the cuticles as well as on the corner of the smaller toes (thankfully, my big toes are still in good condition and since I chose a very neutral polish, it's not super noticeable). Again, since I've never had this done before and don't actually paint my toenails ever, this could be a very normal thing (?). Overall, I would go back though may request a different technician just to see if the experience is any different.

    I came here with my two friends the morning before one of their engagements (eek!) and it was the perfect place to have a subtle celebration. It was just fancy enough to start the morning off special without really giving away that it was going to be a big day. We had an appointment for 3 manicures and after choosing our colors, we were able to sit and get started right away. I loved the rose petal soak and the color selection was incredibly extensive. Everyone found a color they loved. I went with a dusty rosey pink from Jinsoons brand and had a few days of no chips so I was happy. The space is very open and clean and looks more like a full spa than just a nail salon. Would love to come back for more big days.

    Tried this place last week. The lady at the front desk was giving me anxiety. Nail technician did a terrible job taking my gel polish off, for the first time ever my nails felt like paper thin, she was extremely rough on them and didn't let the gel soak long enough. I also absolutely hated how my nails turned out as they were poorly put on. It's been a week today and they've mostly chipped off already and for some reason my nails feel so sticky and I wonder if they put regular polish on instead of gel. Not going back.

    Not impressed. The place is clean and has many colors to offer. I came to get a gel manicure and regular pedicure before a trip. My technician took a while to start my pedicure even though I had an appointment. She seemed nice, looked tired and rushed through my entire many pedi experience. I had to ask her redo my left big toes initially because the polish coat was uneven in certain areas, not realizing the right big toe is also uneven. When I first brought it up to the receptionist, she had the audacity to state it's because my nail is "dry". No. You can clearly tell the layers are uneven. My tech didn't even end up applying a clear top coat. Wtf. My gel manicure looks hideous. I asked for my nails to be slightly shorter than when I arrived and she cut my nail super short and did not maintain the shape I had originally came in with. The paint job is uneven and doesn't even cover my entire nail. It's a sloppy job. I needed her to redo the top coat for one of the fingers meanwhile she really should've redid all of them because there are streak marks on every single nail. I should've just painted my own nails because I know I would've done wayyyyyyy better job than this. I would not go back because of the poor quality in their painting especially for the price they charge. What a waste of money and time. Place gets 1 star for its cleanliness.

    I love it here. Even though it's in Tribeca the price is totally reasonable, similar to what I've paid in Astoria and such. I absolutely LOVE the front desk peeps, super nice, personable. All the nail techs I've had thus far are so wonderful, never have hurt my nails or cuticles, listen to what you want. The vibe is super chill, industrial chic interior design, clean, cozy. I couldn't recommend this place more.

    My feet aren't the prettiest but I appreciated that the store offered legitimate disposable flip flops.

    This is by far the best nail salon I've been in Manhattan. I've received Balm of Purity (this one has essential oil) pedicure since I didn't know much of what makes expensive one better than cheaper one. The nail salon is very spacious and didn't feel crammed from other people. The nail tech Martha (who did my toes) was very friendly and did a good job. I was impressed how much nail polish colors that store offered and all the tools were made by Jinsoon. I recommend the salon if you want somewhere quiet and to get pampered.

    Very disappointing experience today at this salon. I go here every month for well over a year now, usually seeing the same nail tech and was informed she doesn't work there anymore before I booked my appointment this time. My pedicure came out with uneven nails, multiple layers showing, and splotches everywhere. I politely and quietly tried to show the mistakes. The receptionist said there was nothing wrong and brought the technician over, too. They both told me 1) I was looking at my nails wrong 2) it's just the way that color dries 3) They just don't see an issue at all. Very embarrassing and disappointing to feel like a place I am very loyal to (and usually provides great quality services) tried to convince me that there were no mistakes this time. They fully charged me and did not offer to fix the mistakes.

    I was seeking a nail salon to get some pampering done, while I killed time to meet a friend. Upon looking at Yelp's suggestions in the area, this salon stood out to me; unbeknownst to me, it is named after the high end nail polish brand. I scheduled my appointment, and came back to an empty salon. My technician was very soft spoken, communicative and conscious of water temperature and other services I required. This place is so pristine you can probably eat from the floor. It is well lit, has minimalistic decor yet modern and overall the customer service is on point. My tech was very attentive, even when she was attending to a new customer and I was done drying my little toe nails, she applied a drying oil to both hands and feet, wrapped my toes with plastic wrap, put my sock and sneakers on. While I was drying I drank several glasses of water and a glass of champagne. Will definitely visit this nail salon again on a day off or before a trip. The polish quality is on point and has yet to chip a few days later.

    The quality of the work done here does NOT match their price point. Unfortunately not satisfied with my nails. The photos i've attached are only day 3. This is a GEL manicure btw. The polish is uneven, filled with bubbles and chipped. I ask the woman when applying if she noticed the polish seems uneven. She fixed one but reassured me they were fine. The nails seem as though I applied the polish myself at home. I would not return here.

    It's ok and the prices are just ok. Got a spa manicure (milk & honey) and I felt like the equipment isn't new (most places provide new clippers, filing boards) the rags were worn and had a faint smell to them. My arms feel a tad sticky after (unpleasant feeling). The place is kind of clean but I feel like it can be better. Need a better process for how they do their spa manicures, just wiping it off leaves a sticky film feeling on arms. Sticking to my usual place. Also she cut way too deep on my cuticles.

    My friend and I had a horrible experience here and I do not recommend it to anyone. First of all, I booked ahead for two manicures and specified in the notes that one would be gel and both would involve nail art. Yet when we got there, they informed us not all technicians could do art and that there wouldn't be time for gel. Shouldn't they read the notes in the booking to understand what clients are looking for? The issues continued when the manicure started. I showed a reference photo of a really simple pink base with red French tip. It's hard to judge opacity from the bottles and the shade I picked ended up being essentially clear. I asked for advice on a shade that carried more pigment. She picked one that was extremely streaky from the get go. Instead of finding another shade that would work, she kept piling it on and the streaking never went away. I told her I wasn't happy, so she took it off and we had to start from scratch again. I ended up picking a white just to speed the process, which also ended up being streaky. At this point it had been almost an hour and all I had was a streaky, sloppy white base. We had to get going, so I ditched the nail art idea and picked a gold glitter to try to save the look. As you can see from the photos, she applied the glitter extremely unevenly. You can see it's not distributed consistently on different nails and it's super thick and sloppy to the point that the nails have texture. She also didn't bother to clean the white polish from where she got it on my skin and cuticles. My friend ended up getting gel and the end result was good. She did have to keep reminding the technician that she wanted gel and to keep turning on the curing light. We also kept getting rude reminders to inform ahead of time if we wanted gel or nail art in the future ... despite that being in the notes of the appointment booking the entire time. The worst part was that when I went to pay and informed the receptionist of all of the issues we had, she didn't do anything about it. She didn't call the technician over to give her feedback, offer to fix the issues, or give me any kind of discount. I honestly think even asking me to pay after all this was outrageous. I've been to so many nail salons and this was the worst experience. Poor quality of work and even worse customer service. I was embarrassed that I brought my out of town friend here. Stay away if you want a good manicure!

    Do you offer couples manicure/ pedicure? Is this a unisex place?

    When I was in there getting my nails done I saw another man getting his done, too.

    Do you do acrylics? And if so, how much?

It's a nice space that kinda reminds me a bit of a modernized salon-like barber shop. Once it was my turn, I sat down and she got right to work, confirming I wanted a clean. She didn't ask many questions after, but hey, I'm not picky with my brows, I just want them to look nice and even, and she definitely delivered! The service was fantastic throughout! Also, at the end, she put some soothing aloe and gave me a temple massage -- it was so lovely :). They have a loyalty punch card so you can get a free wax after coming 7+ times I believe. I'll certainly be back!

So when I looked up waxing services on Yelp and noticed that Uni K was nearby, with great reviews and online booking I was locked in! First of all, it was so happy to see that they had some same day appointment availability! Why that may not always be the case, some booking systems will still only show starting next day. I also loved that their menu had a lot of options, including more than one type of Brazilian to book. When I showed up to my appointment, I checked in and filled out some basic, new client information. I was then taken to my room with my waxer promptly after. They use hard wax here which many people prefer, but for me hurts the most. But I don't really care what is used as long as they're hygienic, quick, effective and will not spawn in-grown hairs. My waxer was quick, thorough and one week out...things are still looking good! As a bonus, first time clients got a significant discount which made me even happier about my experience. While my experience before check out was already excellent, that was just icing on the cake. Overall, I left very impressed and will definitely return again in the future!
