We love this salon & have been coming here for years! Staff is very friendly. Always take me as a walk-in.

This place is fine. Recommended to me by a friend and it got the job done. I walked right in and was out in less than an hour. I got a pedicure and the paint lasted for a good amount of time considering the fact that I wear closed-toed shoes so often. However, i was a bit annoyed that she didn't paint the whole nail. I didn't notice it until after I left. I know some people do that to shape them, but I'd rather have my nails painted properly. Anyway, I'd probably go back because it's convenient and they seem to have openings a lot. read more

Kt Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Somerville, New Jersey

They got me in last minute today which I appreciate. I had an overall good experience. It was my first time there so some learning curves to be had I suppose. My biggest dislike is there was clear UV gel on my nails and the 3 nails that needed repair the tech chose a pink color so I couldn't wear nude nails anymore and they didn't match the rest of them. I repeatedly told her things were different than what I'm used to, she said it wouldn't matter with color. Guess what lady, it matters. Aside from that some nails look over a week grown out leaving the salon. The feet to hand orangey-reds are supposed to match. The sloppy ones don't bother me as the skin goes quickly but cmon it's paid & tipped on. Overall I will try again but will be micromanaging (unfortunately as it is an escape). Mostly will try again because it's $60 cheaper than HH nails. As with everything, you get what you pay for. read more

Kt Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Somerville, New Jersey

I don't normally write reviews but I had a horrible experience at KT nails. I will not be returning to this salon. I went as a walk in to this salon yesterday morning. My nail technician rushed my fill in. My nails were uneven. I left with nail polish on my hands and a small spot of blood because she was rough when taking care of my cuticles. My nails chipped yesterday night and again today. Normally when I get my nails done they last 2-3 WEEKS without chipping. 2-3 WEEKS. These didn't even last 24 hours. If you can go anywhere else to get your nails done please do. read more

be upfront about prices... period... this place has some amazing and kind people but when you charge extra for filing nails - be sneaky about it and then don't even file great is when I don't leave a kind review! how do you charge extra for this and not be upfront ? but more importantly I was being kind because it was an OK job... . it's not professional and simply doesn't make a customer feel good...it's tacky. I had a normal gel filling that's all- she asked if I wanted the nails shorter and I said sure but I would like them pointy still...I didn't even get what I asked for!!! i just wanted my normal fillings I get ..... then i get this?!?! She said "oh I cut so much" in front of her boss. I laughed bc that was a lie. whatever. It's just a bad taste in my mouth now. I will try to go other places if need be.... read more

I got toe nail fungus. They should open new tools for each customer not use the same ones. Also they don't do shoulder massages and manicures are over priced. read more

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! May 18- got my mom's gel nails done May 20- 1 nail's paint chipped May 23- 2 more chipped May 23- they fixed it but refused to change the color as the color might be faulty causing early chipping May 28- another nail chipped The owner offers to fix it and change the color as it might be faulty. After my mom took an Uber all the way they made us wait an hour and no1 fixed her nails. You are better off getting your nails done elsewhere as their quality and work ethic is subpar. read more

I had pretty low expectations here due to the low reviews but I was so pleased with this experience!! As soon as I entered, the receptionist was there ready to help me. She asked what I needed and quickly confirmed my appointment and had someone ready to show me colors and get me to my seat. I've never had this great of service at a nail salon! Lilly was the one who did my nails - she was very friendly and even made sure she knew my name, which seems like something no one tries to do these days! She asked what I wanted with my nails at appropriate times and didn't complain when a piece of fuzz got stuck on my nail, which she had to take off and repaint. I'm very happy with the way my manicure came out, and even more happy with the friendly service here. The gel manicure was also only $25! Very affordable in my opinion. They also gave me a nice bottle of lotion for Christmas, free of charge! I'm definitely thinking this will be my new regular spot for when I come home! read more

My mom and I have been going to KT nail for YEARS. We love and trust the staff here! They have always done a fabulous job with our manicures/pedicures and make us feel at home. Tina is such a sweetheart and has such a great relationship with her customers. Personally, I have difficult nails for pedicures due to sport injuries and I only trust KT nails. I drive from Staten Island just for KT nails!! read more

Kt Nails - Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Somerville, New Jersey

This salon is great. Always greated with smile. I get my nails dipped in the powder. Before I found KT Nails, I tried many nail salons and my nails would usually start chipping within a week. Now that I found KT Nails (specifically Lily), I won't go anywhere else. She does a great job! My nails last forever. Due to the state shut down, I haven't been able to get my nails done in almost 5 weeks. My nails still look great. Of course they have grown out a little but no chipping at all. (I attached a photo). read more

Kt Nails - Nails after 5 weeks - Nail Salons Near Me - Somerville, New Jersey

Had an appointment on a friday for 2 gel manicures. Mine turned out okay, there are a few bubbles but nothing to really complain about. The person I went with, got a terrible manicure. The brushes they used were all mangled and her manicure ended up streaky and thin. There was no way the manicurist didnt notice, but she let us leave with a bad manicure. We went back the next day, and they redid the nails, which was nice, but I'm not sure that it's worth the money. The place is also not very clean, there is nail dust left on the manicure tables, and it looks like they don't clean very often. read more

So good. Tammy and Carol are amazing and so helpful. They are abiding by COVID-19 regulations and somehow still manage to make the atmosphere so welcoming and enjoyable! Tammy also does amazing eyebrow waxing and will give you exactly what you need! read more

Came here with a friend last weekend for gel manicures. The nail tech was watching over our shoulders as we chose colors and rushed us into chairs as soon as we each showed interest in a color. I should have known at that point what kind of nail place this was and walked out, but decided to just rough it out. The manicure itself was probably the quickest gel manicure I've ever received... maybe 15 minutes. Which is great in the sense that it saved everyone time... but not so great because the job was pretty poor. The polish was uneven, left huge gaps between the cuticles, and that evening one of the nails had already chipped. I've never had a gel manicure chip that quick, in fact I usually find them impossible to remove. I knew from the way she was polishing each nail that it would probably chip (barely coating each nail, doing them too quickly, etc). Not coming back here, waste of $25 plus tip. read more

While the gal who did my nails was courteous--she was more interested in what was going on around her than me. She used the cheese-grater on the soles of my feet, and even after I told her she was hurting me she kept up... my feet are not nor were they calloused, so the grayer was over kill. My feet still hurt. That night and the day after I was miserable. If any of them pulls out the cheese grater scream!! read more

Should have listened to these reviews. Extremely rude people. Especially "Tina", must be the owner. Older lady did my manicure, cut my skin vs cuticle. Wanted to use some motorized filer for my nails. Never even heard of such a thing. Make a long story short, I've been getting manicures for years (job appearance reasons) and this has to be the most expensive manicure ever $15, and even a shoulder rub. Didn't think she was happy with the $2 tip i left her, cause she left them on the table and walked away, didn't bother to say "Thank You" and I'm an language, it's all the same. So ladies, good luck and listen to some of these reviews. read more

The worst pedicure I've ever had. I only went because they are right across the street from my job and I was short on time. The staff was rude, the place looked grimy, and the service was terrible. My leg massage was super short and she answered her phone in the middle of my pedi. It seemed that she rushed so she could sit at the front and gossip with the other employees. It was totally empty inside, and rightly so. I will never be patronizing this place again. read more

I've been into this salon twice now. I can't attest to the quality of their work because both times they couldn't seem to accommodate my request for a gel polish (or gel polish removal and then mani/pedi) because they were "too busy." Generally, I understand situations like that. But, generally, when a salon states they are "too busy" you can also plainly see that they're busy. If I walk into a desolate salon with 1 client and 6 staff members, I expect to be helped out. I do not find that to be unreasonable... guess they felt differently. That being said, there are dozens of other salons that will be getting my business. I do not have time or money to waste at places that clearly don't want it. Hope this helps someone in the future! read more

I came in yesterday, with an appointment and was taken right on time. I had a gel manicure and a pedicure. The products were good for my sensitive skin, the staff was friendly and I am so happy with the finished product. I will definitely return again! The best part is, they keep it moving so I was happily in and out in an hour, but didn't feel rushed like I have at other places. Also, I did not ice that the pedicures are very sanitary and all stations were clean and neat. Two thumbs up from me! read more

Rude, rushed, cell phone obsessed, sloppy, dirty, I can go on. The "technician" barely spoke three words to me, gave me a rushed foot massage and could barely tear his eyes from his phone even when ringing me up. I shouldn't have given any tip. Worst of all, I got home and noticed my toe was covered in blood! Disgusting. read more

Kt Nails - Not the pedicure I was looking for - Nail Salons Near Me - Somerville, New Jersey

I love this salon, and have recommended this salon to many of my friends. Tina, the owner, is one of the loveliest people I've ever met, and I've never had any broken nails or chips! Love love love the ladies that do the pedicures. I've been going to Tina for probably 6 years, and she's second to none. The negative reviews on yelp do not make any sense at all. Her prices are reasonable, she has always been a joy to spend time with, and she is truly great at what she does. Love you, tina!!!! Just visit her once and you'll be hooked. read more

I'm really surprised by all the negative reviews for this place. I used to come here every once in a while when I lived in the Area, but I think it was named something different. (E&M?) Anyway, they always used to do a good job so since I recently moved back into the area, I stopped in today for a mani/pedi and an eyebrow wax on my way home from work and was very happy with my experience. My technician was Jenny and she was very friendly and did a great job! It was also the fastest mani/pedi I've ever gotten. I thought the price was reasonable and was really pleased with her work. I had no appointment and was seen quickly. It wasn't packed, but there seemed to be some regular customers there, maybe about 4-5 other people. It was a friendly and clean salon. I'll definitely go back. read more

I had a good experience. The salon is clean and well litmus not super busy but definitely had business. The man took care of me. I got a gell fill French manicure. He was gentle and made sure everything is even. My only complaint is that I have white polish on a couple fingers that he didn't clean. The price is the same everywhere else I've been and the speak English. I think I'll come back. I wasn't turned away like other reviews and I'm surprised by them honestly. read more

I'm not sure why there are so many bad reviews! I have been coming here for years. Even though there are a few bad employees, they leave later. If you are in a rush, get an appointment with Tina. Sometimes when I'm not in a rush and I want to relax, get an appointment with Sara. But note that both of them get booked fairly quickly, I know from experience lol. I've been here recently and the new employees seem nice. Tammy isn't the nicest, but she gets the job done. My daughter had an appointment with her, it went fine. Tracy seems nice, and Anna is nice if you want to relax. When you can come during the weekdays! The weekends get really busy, and last time I was there, I had to wait 30minutes, so book appointments on Saturday. read more

I have been getting my gels done for over a decade. This is the only place that I trust and Tina is incredible. I drive a half hour out of my way just to come here because she's quick and very professional. This nail salon is by far the greatest value for the money. I have tried every Salon around and have never been satisfied. My gels last one month and they always look incredible. Absolutely recommend them! read more

Kt Nails - Done by Kyle - Nail Salons Near Me - Somerville, New Jersey

As I sat in the pedicure chair she answered the phone scheduling appointments. while she was wearing gloves i thought to myself... how many germs are on that phone that she keeps answering then touching my feet? A tool was dropped on the floor and picked up and put back for use. $12 manicure $25 pedicure is what it is. read more

Do not get your eyebrows done here, the lady ripped off a layer of my skin and I had to go to the doctors to get a prescription ointment to put on the (non-existing) skin under my eyebrows. The marks/scars were bright red for a week- embarrassing for day to day life, and makeup was not able to even halfway cover up the marks. Two months later and I still have faded scars. You're better off going somewhere else. The gel nailpolish lasted a while though. But will never return again. read more

I have been going to Tina for many years... I followed her from the salon that she left when she bought KT Nails...I highly recommend her to all of my friends and customers. I am a bartender and get nothing but raves about how great my nails look. Her prices are very reasonable and they have a card punch system that for every 10 punches you get 10 dollars off! How could it get any better? Tina and all the girls and guys are very friendly...I highly recommend her salon! read more

This salon is the best. I get gel manicures and pedicures every 2-3 weeks and always come here as I like the quality and speedy service. Tina has been doing my nails for almost 10 years and she is wonderful: always listens to what I have in mind when it comes to nail shape, colors, etc. and even helps me to come up with various nail designs. Her team is very good also as I had Tammy and Lilly do my nails and was always happy with the results. I highly recommend this place. read more

I had an appointment (my first time here, so with no one specific) and Lyly was the one who I ended up with. While I'm not happy with the work she did, the other young lady that sat next to her and translated what I wanted is the one I have the REAL problem with . I chose a dark purple color and a nude color for my accent nail and a very simple flower design. I asked the lady if they could do this and showed her the picture on my phone. She didn't say anything but nodded her head and sat down next to Lyly's table and played on her phone. So the manicure starts with Lyly taking off my old gel polish with the dremel tool. I've never seen this done before; I've always had them file some of the polish off with a regular nail file and then soak them in acetone for SEVERAL minutes before they attempt to remove the remaining polish off. Not Lyly. She used the tool to take off the top layer and then put the acetone soaked cotton ball on each finger with the finger caps. As soon as she was done putting the cotton ball on the last finger, she went back to the first finger, took the cotton ball off and SCRAPED the remaining polish off, which took off a lot of my natural nail with it. I asked her to let it soak some more but I guess she didn't understand me and her translator next door was too wrapped up in her phone to care that I was speaking. Long story short, I STILL have little bits of red gel polish under my current gel polish and my nails feel very thin from all the filing from the dremel and the scraping with the metal tool. Lyly then cut and filed my nails in a shape that I didn't like but understood when I told her and she fixed it. She then soaked my fingers to prep them for the cuticle cutting (again, not nearly long enough for my liking). I told her that I have cuticles that grow really quickly and I would like it if she would please really get in there and cut them as much as she could. She looked up and smiled at me and nodded her head but she hardly spent any time on them at all. When Lyly was finished painting my nails, the translator girl came over and I figured out that she was the one that was going to paint the simple flower on my accent nail. I had my phone out with the picture open so she could see again what I was looking for. Now, I totally understand that not everyone is an artist and I do NOT expect perfection, but what this woman painted on my nail was a hot mess and nothing like the picture. I really wish she had just told me that she didn't think she could do it when I first showed her. I would have been completely fine with that and would have either chosen something else or just gone with no accent art at all. No biggie. Instead, she gets totally irritated that I don't like her design (I felt awful telling her....I hate confrontation and, even more, hurting people's feelings but I just could not live with that design for 3 weeks.) She yanks the dremel tool up and started filing the design off so hard that she BURNED my finger. I yelled ouch! and yanked my hand away and she looked up and said, "Oh, sorry" with absolutely no feeling or apologetic tone. She continued to dremel (more softly) until the entire design was gone and then very roughly said, "so what do you want then?" I told her I just wanted the same purple color, so she painted it, then applied ONE half-assed coat of top coat and then got up and walked away, leaving me there wondering what I was supposed to do next. After like, 3 whole minutes, I looked at Lyly (who was sitting next door, taking the gel off of another woman's nails) and said, "So, am I finished?" She said no and told me to wait a minute. At this time, I realized she speaks pretty good English because she was having a full conversation with her new client. WTH? When all is said and done, only ONE WEEK LATER, my clear coat is chipping off my color, my color underneath is now chipping, my cuticles look like shit, and my ring fingernail STILL hurts to press on it. I will never, ever, EVER go back to this place! And neither should you!! read more

Was very surprised when I read other reviews. Find the salon to be clean, staff friendly, efficient and accommodating.

I have been going there since December and have been recommending them to my friends. Tina and her staff are great! read more

Idk where to start...it was my first time at this place and definitely my last...my visit started out great. No wait and a very nice technician until he glued his finger to mine than when it came to putting on my acrylic he didn't know how so the owner came over and put it on. Than they switched again and he put the polish on than they switched yet again and she put the sparkles*told me they would do them for free* than switched again and he did the gel to finish off...told me it was $30 so I gave them my card and didn't think twice and have them each $5 tips ...it's been a week and my nails are chipped already...oh and not to mention I checked my card and they charged me $40...very disappointed they should be ashamed read more
