    Tiffany is Amazing!!!

    First time Tiffany did my nails and she did an absolute amazing job!!! My nail art was done free hand, beautiful!! I only had to tell her how I wanted my nails done once and she did them perfectly!! Tiffany also did my pedicure, again absolutely beautiful!!

    I had an awesome first-time experience here with Tracy. I think I may have finally found my "go to" salon for the Bloomfield area! I called on a Sunday afternoon to see if they could accommodate a gel manicure with extension and they were able to take me right away. Tracy was my technician, and I felt very comfortable with her the moment I sat down. She was a great listener and made sure she understood exactly what I wanted. She paid attention to my desired length, shape, color and look. I mentioned I wanted a very natural nail with some extended length and that was exactly what I got. Tracy is definitely thorough and detail-oriented. Not to mention, she was super pleasant and enjoyable to talk to. The salon also has ample parking in the lot (a true perk for the area), and was super tidy and clean! It was not crowded for a Sunday, but staff did seem limited for that day, so I would advise calling ahead before coming. They did have to tell some walk-ins to come back later since their chairs were filled at the time. I am looking forward to coming back here and trying out some of their other services in a few weeks! Edit: I went back and Sue did my nails this time. She also did a beautiful job!

    I'm usually hesitant about getting my nails done as they are very thin but Sue did an amazing job! I got gel polish and it was done very quickly. She didn't buff them too much, just enough to secure the polish. She also pushed back my cuticles and cut off the dead skin without pinching me at all! Something that one should expect from every nail salon, but not something which many deliver. I provided photos of my nails when I first got them done and two weeks later. I am very rough on my hands and there is only one very small chip and they are just now showing signs of cracking. I definitely recommend coming here as my gel manicure has lasted so long. They'll last even longer if you aren't too rough on your hands.

    Doesn't curve to the cuticle

    So, I really wanted to give this place a chance... I happened to break a nail on a Sunday and they were open with decent reviews for dip manicure so off I go to Lotus. They told me to come right away and I did thinking that god for this place The girls who did my nails looked annoyed that she had to do them and rushed the whole time. She hit me with the machine at least every 10 minutes. The edges around my nail were not round, they were jagged and my nails were uneven and wavy. What iced the cake for me was when I called to get them done again because now I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt that I came right before closing last time and this time should be better, they can't fit me in at 1:45. You're telling me you're that busy in the middle of the week when most people are at work?? I'll loyally return to Vital Tips in Summit for the best dip manicures and biggest color selection.

    Found this salon on yelp after searching for a place that does good SNS nails. Decided to give it a try. Called and was able to get an appointment right away. Sue did my nails. She was very sweet & explained every step. She was quick yet very thorough. The salon is very clean. Will definitely be going back.

    I had a manicure and pedicure done and I am not satisfied. It does not look professional It was complicated to communicate and it took more than 2 hours I will not go back

    Very friendly staff! Sue was very nice, and did a great job. The salon is very clean, and pleasant to be in!

    Sue is the most amazing nail tech I've ever had! She's incredibly sweet, very talented, and makes sure everything is perfect! Her designs are so detailed, she does a fantastic job every time. I get acrylics done by her and I always come out super happy with the results. She is like a god of nails, you'll never be disappointed! Attached is the latest set she did for me which really shows how amazing her designs are.

    Lotus used to be a great place to go to have my nails and pedicure done. Me and my daughter were regular customers, but the day Tracy left I had to stop going the new staff is not qualified, not friendly. The new management has disappointed me so much that I'm not going back. I'm sorry

    Super thick.

    Wanted to try dip nails for the first time and unfortunately they came out extremely thick. My nails underneath feel uncomfortable and I'm hoping my nail beds aren't bruised. Also, one of the tech's kids was running around the entire time. He kept interrupting the tech doing my nails. I felt like that was very unprofessional since this is called a "spa". Very far from a good experience and I won't be returning.

    If you're thinking about getting a gift certificate from here I would ask what the policy is. I was…read moregiven a gift certificate from a friend for my birthday that expired a week after it was given to me and didn't know that when I went to use it in November. They didn't tell me it was expired while I was there, let me use half of it, then crossed out the expiration date and made it a date in expire 10/30/25. I was unaware they back-dated it because I was in a hurry to put it in my pocket since I was in rush. Fast forward to today, I went to use it and obviously it wasn't honored because of that new date. I understand that it expired and of course I'm fine not using it since it's completely my fault. It was just the most bizarre experience because 1. No one mentioned it was expired the first time I was there (which I would have been fine paying for my pedicure if someone explained that to me instead writing in a new date so couldn't use it again) Also I'm just not sure why they would give me back a gift certificate that I can't use anymore or never mention that it was expired. 2. What kind of place has a 1 week or 1 month expiration date? (Thinking about it I'm wondering if it the date a typo since it was handwritten because most places around here have a 1 year expiration date when I buy them or am gifted them.) Also my nails were different lengths and the polish I used developed white spots on top (it was a light purple) With so many wonderful places in Montclair, I would definitely consider buying a gift certificate somewhere else with a longer expiration date, a more clear policy, or somewhere that will take the time to explain these dates and policies if you have an issue like I did if you are looking to purchase a gift.

    On Friday, I decided to check out the new nail salon that just opened near my house. The place that…read morewas there before wasn't so great, so I wasn't sure what to expect. Well, my expectations were definitely exceeded. For starters, the place looks great inside. The new owners have done an amazing job decorating and it now looks more elegant than it did before. I got there as soon as they opened and decided on a mani/pedi. The place was immaculate, there were plenty of OPI and Essie colors to choose from and the woman who did my nails - Sandra - was wonderful, personable, and excellent at her job. I especially appreciated the mini massage that she gave me on my shoulders as I waited for my nails to dry! I have to say that I got a way better mani/pedi than ones that I've gotten at a certain large salon/spa in Montclair for half the price ($26!!). Needless to say, this alone would have been enough to make me come back. But what happened AFTER my services is what really will keep me coming back... Like a moron, I left my engagement ring in the ring keeper after I got my heavenly hand massage. This wasn't just any ring. It once belonged to my husband's grandmother. So, as you can guess, it's pretty invaluable in a sentimental kind of way. Of course, I didn't realize the ring was missing until that evening. Frantic, I tried to retrace my steps, thinking about where I could have lost it. I finally realized that it must have been at the nail salon. As you can imagine, I had a fitful night of sleep that evening! I arrive at the salon the next morning - a full 24 hours after I had left it - thinking for sure that it wouldn't be there. It was. I couldn't believe it! A number of things could have happened, but Sandra recognized me as soon as I arrive and got the owner/manager to get my ring. There aren't many people or businesses who are this honest. They have a client for life! FYI...There is plenty of parking on the street, but there is also a small lot on the side of the building.

    I've been coming to nail story spa for years simply because it's THE best nail salon in NJ/NY. I've…read morebeen to so many salons in the area, but this spa takes the cake. They really know what they're doing - I get my nails customized here and they're always sooooo spot on!!! Just bring in a picture and Angie can literally duplicate it. Most nail salons tend to be dirty, but like how the other reviewers have mentioned, this place is super clean and professional. Plus the prices are reasonable - I cannot recommend this place enough!! I suggest making an appointment in advance for the best experience!!

I got my first set of acrylic tips and nails a few weeks ago. I went this past Sunday to get a fill in and there are apparently only a couple of techs in this salon do acrylic nails. The girl that did my nails was not the person that normally does my gel manicures. The manager/owner assured me that this nail tech was very good. When I sat down I told her that I did not want gel on top of my acrylic because I noticed she had a bottle of gel nail color and she said OK. Then she told me it was going to be $70 for a fill-in and I almost fell out of my chair. I've never paid more than $30-$40 tops. I asked her again are you sure you charge $70 for a regular acrylic nail fill and she said yes. I didn't want to cause a scene so I just sat there and let her do my nails at a premium which is ridiculous. Plus she put gel on my nails after I specifically told her I did not want it. She had quite an attitude with me as well. I really should have requested a refund or gotten up and left but I didn't. So after almost a year of having pleasant experiences I will no longer go to this salon. To have been charged that amount of money for a simple fill in is ludicrous and they should understand that there are nail salons pretty much on every corner that people can choose to go to. Good luck!!
