Just wanted to update!…read more Sunny did an amazing job with my nails! I'm going to a wedding next week where I'm a bridesmaid and showed her a pic of the nail I wanted and what color for the tips. She is so meticulous and careful to get it right. So much appreciation for her and her craft! Thanks again sunny!!!

Went to this salon for the first time before my birthday trip and it was a huge mistake…read more I showed Sunny two pictures of designs and sunny immediately went to another person and spoke a different language. Based on the pointing and the other person looking at the design on my cell phone, I could tell Sunny was over her head so I then told her, let's go with the easier design. I should have left at that point and that's why I'm writing this review...how does this place have a 4.0 on yelp?! There were several times I tried to tell her she's not doing a good job. She even made me bleed, look at my terribly red cuticles. My nails look nothing like the requested design. After I told her I don't like what she did she looked confused and tried to give me a hand massage. I told her I don't like this and to take the lotion of my hand I'd like to leave. After paying $70 ($40 for gel, $30 for chrome) she asked for a tip...like wrote the word tip on my receipt and circled it. Wild!

The salon is kept very clean, the staff is friendly, and the quality of manicures, pedicures, and waxing is top-notch. I often get a gel manicure that involves two colors- with a half moon design from the cuticle up in one of the colors, and the rest of the nail in the second one, and always come out very pleased with the results. The design comes out very evenly on each nail, and the attention to detail and perfection is quite impressive. I highly recommend this place for a mani, pedi, or wax appointment as the level of service is second to none.

I stopped in about 15 minutes before they opened and they were kind enough to take me right away,…read morewhich I really appreciated. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience wasn't great. I asked for a basic manicure with no color, but I left feeling disappointed. My nails actually looked worse than when I came in. They were scratched up with file marks, my cuticles were still showing, and my hands were never soaked in warm water like I've had done at other salons. One finger even ended up bleeding. When it came time to pay, I was also asked to tip in cash, which felt uncomfortable. I paid $20 and left feeling like I needed to go fix my nails somewhere else. Definitely not what I was expecting and I won't be going back.

There isn't a shortage of nail salons. What makes a salon stand out is their service, consistency,…read moreand reasonable pricing. I've been coming to Elite Nails for over 5 years for these exact reasons. It's located in a shopping plaza with plenty of parking in a lot. The salon is small and a little outdated. It could use a paint job and new flooring, but at least it's not unsanitary. There's around 6 pedicure chairs and 6 manicure stations. If you want a luxurious ambiance, this isn't the place for you. Their prices are very fair and lower compared to other salons in the area. I always get a gel manicure ($35) and regular pedicure ($23). There's plenty of nail colors and brands to choose from. Just a heads up, they don't do acrylics or very intricate designs. I always call to make my appointment and the owner, Joanna, is very accommodating. She's squeezed me in last minute with no issues. I don't recommend coming as a walk-in because they are usually booked. The best nail techs are Joanna and John. I usually go to John. He's gentle, has good attention to detail, and works efficiently. He doesn't rush and ensures I'm happy with my nail length, shape, and color. As a client of over 5 years, I've had a mix of good and bad experiences with other techs. Some are more experienced than others. My biggest pet peeve is getting my cuticles cut, so once that happens... I lose my trust! I'm not as picky with my toes, so I'm happy with any tech doing my pedicure. The ladies are really sweet and make my feet look ~pretty~ The quality of their nail products are great. My polish lasts for a looooooong time and doesn't chip or lift. They even have a rewards system. Gain points for every $ spent and you get free services. Looking forward to my next appointment!

First time here and Mia (?) was great. I believe she said her name was Mia but now I'm not sure…read moresince I couldn't find that name on the site to rebook. She was attentive and had nice, calm energy. She paid attention to detail and I loved both my gel manicure and gel pedicure. I will definitely return despite the pretty high prices here, with a 20% tip it was almost $140 total for a regular gel mani & pedi and my nails were bare, meaning I had nothing on them. Is this normal? I don't do my nails enough to know. Why not 5 stars? The pedicure space here isn't the most comfortable. It isn't the kind of massage chair where you can lean back and relax so it doesn't offer the comfort and relaxation that I've grown to expect while getting a pedicure. Overall good experience. They are thorough and efficient which I love.

I got a Japanese gel manicure in a nude color. I'll definitely be coming back for some fun designs next time! Natsuko did my nails, and she did an amazing job. She's super attentive and made the experience even better with some nice, easy conversation. The salon is located right near the George Washington Bridge, and there are so many bakeries and restaurants nearby. Why not treat yourself to a nail appointment and grab a bite to eat while you're at it?

It was quiet and very chill, and she did a wonderful job on my nails!! I'll definitely be coming back.

I had the best experience. This place was very very clean and peaceful. When I walked in, I got…read moresuch a warm welcome, which was very nice. Before I drove over I called to make sure that they had any availability and they did on a Saturday afternoon. Grace had such meticulous attention to detail. She continuously checked in on me to make sure that I was comfortable every step of the way. It was quiet and peaceful such a huge difference from the nail salons that I have gone to previously. Also, during my service I was offered coffee, tea or water. At the end of my service, she used a collagen hand glove and a hot towel. The price was extremely reasonable, and I will definitely 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.
