Really nice people! They work nice and carefully on you making sure they do all the details. Tried their organic gel manicure which apparently is really good for your nails so I'm testing this with my fingers crossed. Their service and everything was great! The only thing is because if it's neighborhood, the pricing seems slightly higher than usual nail spots but it was worth it :)

This is one week of my manicure and I'm doing my pedicure as I'm writing this. Love them!

I love this place! The first time I discovered them - I needed a quick manicure and they did a fantastic job in 20 minutes! The owners May and Melissa are super sweet. I love their gel polish - unique color selection and lasts long! The brand is different than most nails salons and is advertised as pure gel - which is nice to see. I came back for a pedicure and Melissa took her time, did not chat with other co-workers while doing the pedicure - just a nice pleasant time at this place. I texted them to get an apt time which was super convenient. They can provide the number once you become a customer. I just can't rave enough about them!

Poor shaping and bumpy application

Lacks attention to detail. Horrible customer service and blames customer for poor results: I got gel manicure. Prices are listed as gel color is $25 and organic gel is $35. I didn't know this until I chose my color from the book they gave me and as they were filing my nails, they said the gel is organic so it's more expensive than regular gel (now that I think about it, the book they gave me may only had organic options to select from? Not sure about this). As she was filing my nails I asked for short but she said gel would look good with a longer tip so I said ok. My fault for not being picky enough but the shape is so bad. I am shocked that she looked at this shape and even thought it was ok. Next, she did my manicure which was ok at first. When I got home, I realized that it wasn't applied evenly and there were bumpy areas. It was also very thick. There was also white streaks forming the next day I went back 3 days later to tell them about the white streaks and how it was unevenly applied. The woman ONLY filed the 3 nails that had white streaks and applied a new coat over it. When I told them about the application, she blamed it on MY nails and how my nails were uneven so it ended up like that. I told her I had gel done before in other places and she didn't respond to me. Moreover, she told me that my nails were uneven while doing my nails the first time and failed to tell me that application may be uneven. THE WORST PART IS the 3 nails she reapplied to "fix" were the WRONG COLOR. So now I have 3 nails that are different colors to the rest of my nails. I didn't even bother to tell them again because I have no hope. I went home and fixed the shape because it was bothering me so much. TLDR: dishonest, does not listen to customer needs, lack of attention to details, does not admit wrongdoings.

I LOVE my nails, Melissa & May did an amazing job!! They took their time and made sure my nails were exactly what I wanted! They both helped me pick out the colors they knew exactly what would look nice together. The door remained locked the whole time making sure nobody would be able to walk in and out practicing social distancing right. Everyone had masks on, appointment only so their wasn't a lot of people inside at the same time. This is definitely my new forever nail place! I would highly recommend!!!

I started coming here at the recommendation of my cousin who said she loved the place and I have to say I do too! Melissa and May are so sweet, always accommodating. They even allow you to txt to make appointments for convenience. The place is clean and their organic gel has in fact improved my nails. The place just has good vibes and I'd definitely recommend it to others to try it.

(Pic is 10 days after appointment)

LOVE the organic gel! Lasts 2 weeks (probably even longer but I go for nail growth). My nails were very damaged after years of acrylic abuse. But this product was my miracle fix. They took my temperature upon arrival and also keep door locked so no one can enter unexpectedly. $55 for gel manicure and matching color pedicure.

Expectation

I went on valentine's day for a manicure. The two pics below are what I asked for and what I got. I paid $35 for this "organic" gel that they were raving about cuz I was the only customer at the time and was like sure why not. The service was decent, pretty average. My only complaint about my nails is that it barely looks like the picture and it's already starting to peel off. (it's been 5 days and it started peeling 2 days ago) The lady was nice, I just didn't get the desirable result for the price I paid.

I've been coming to this nail salon regularly, and I honestly can't say enough wonderful things…read moreabout this place! Joey is absolutely amazing! She is hands down the best nail technician I've ever had. Her attention to detail, patience, and incredible skills are truly exceptional. My nails always turn out beautiful, and on top of that, she is such a sweet, kind, and lovely person! The owner is also incredibly warm, friendly, and welcoming. What makes this salon so special isn't just the excellent service, but the people and the atmosphere. Every time I walk through the door, I genuinely feel like I'm coming home. It's such a comfortable, relaxing, and welcoming place. I'm so happy I found Joey and this wonderful salon. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my nails! Highly recommend!

I initially visited this salon for a pedicure. Impressed by the quality of the work, I scheduled an…read moreappointment for GelX the following day. While paying, I shared an inspiration picture with the owner, who quoted me around $90. However, when I arrived for my GelX appointment, they informed me that they didn't have the desired charms and would have to create them using gel. I expressed my preference for charms because it's less prone to getting dirty quickly. During the appointment, I showed Candy another design. She requested the owner's presence to finalize the total price. The owner quoted me $10 for the length and $5 for the shape, which seemed unusual since there was no filing done to the tip. When I inquired about the $5 charge for the shape, even though the extension comes pre-shaped, the owner changed the price to $15 for the length. When I questioned the owner about this discrepancy, she claimed that since it was my second time and we're all Chinese, she wouldn't charge me. I asked her for a total price and she told me $100. Upon paying, The owner (Jae I think) informed me that the nails would cost $175. The $100 she had initially quoted me was only for the style. I was required to pay an additional $60 for the GelX and $15 for the length, even though she had previously stated that she wouldn't charge for the shape. I was so bewildered that I couldn't even argue with her. On Saturday, I received beautiful Gel-X extensions. Unfortunately, by Thursday (the second day of my vacation), two of the nails had already lifted. While Candy's work was indeed beautiful, it unfortunately didn't last. Despite my preference for Gel-X extensions, which are longer and last at least three weeks, I kept being persuaded to switch to Gel extensions. It's unfortunate because I work on the same street and have had numerous customers ask me where I get my nails done. I must warn them to be cautious of price changes at the last minute while paying.

I had been looking for a nail salon after a few disappointing experiences at the place near me,…read morewhen I came across New Love Nail. After reading some reviews, I decided to stop by and treat myself. I'm SO happy I found this place!! I came here twice - once for a gel manicure ($35) + regular pedicure ($25), and once for a gel manicure only. Both times, I made appointments 1-2 days in advance, and was greeted immediately upon arrival. The salon is clean and there is enough distancing between clients. I was so impressed by the staff - they're friendly, and the whole manicure is fast but done extremely well. My friend and I were in and out of the salon in less than 45 minutes. Gel manis usually only last ~2 weeks for me, but for both of my manis here, they lasted at least a good 3 weeks. I wish I took pictures of my nails! If you pay with cash over $80, you can also add a free 10 minute massage. I HIGHLY recommend the massages here. It was so relaxing, and they make sure to fully massage out your knots even when the timer goes past 10 minutes. Will definitely be back in the future!

Wanted to love this place and visited a few times but my last visit decided things for me…read more Been trying different nail technicians to see whose work I like and settled on someone. Made an appt two weeks in advance only to show up and have her in the middle of someone else's nails. I wait (way past my appt time) only to be told she just booked the appt but it won't be her. Perhaps if they hadn't accommodated a last minute walk in I would have been seen on time? You get nothing here for being a semi regular. Adding insult to injury I sit down with whoever they assign only to have my technician and the one who I had booked chat and giggle in Korean with the woman next to me. I was invisible. I am all for NY's multiple and beautiful languages being trilingual myself but what was clearly communicated to me despite the language barrier was that I was not welcome and no one needs that. Not the holiday spirit and not the place for me.
