Wow I came here for an afternoon Russian Manicure session and they did a FANTASTIC job. My poor nails were so brittle from acrylics I had one before and they took such good care of my nail bed and cuticles. Just fabulous job. read more

M Studio - Russian Gel Manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - New York, New York

i wrote an email to management for 2 reasons: 1. i went in as a first time client and booked the cheapest service ($90) and was upsold to add on hard gel and ended up walking out (SHOCKINGLY paying $175 for a french manicure) for $175, i want to be OBSESSED with my nails- but no. i found that they were cut too short and i wasn't happy with the result. reached out hoping to come in for a comped service since the place came highly recommended to me, maybe the result would be better and the service not as costly. i ended up getting GASLIT and was sent a picture of my before nails, and then an after picture that WERE NOT MY NAILS lol you cant make this up. anyways, avoid this place unless u wanna get scammed idk read more

I first discovered M.Studio about two years ago, and as soon as I booked my trip back to New York, I knew without a doubt that I had to come back for a Russian mani and pedi. This place is the definition of perfection. The attention to detail is unmatched. Every cuticle, every shape, every polish stroke is flawless. My nails have never looked so clean and refined. I booked both my mani and pedi at the same time, which was super convenient since I was trying to get in and out, and they made it seamless. The space is chic and relaxing, and the team is always warm, professional, and incredibly skilled. It is rare to find a place that delivers consistently perfect results, but M.Studio does exactly that. Worth every minute and every penny. read more

Thank you for the walk-in!!! I was going to a gala and needed a mani/pedi quick style! Thank goodness they had an opening for me and the staff were all very welcoming. I felt like I was treated with royalty when I walked in and they offered a hot beverage, since I was freezing! My technician was very kind and gentle with my needs. We were in the back in a room, so it felt a bit more intimate and had small conversations. The vibe was high-end, welcoming, great hospitality. The halloween decor was lovely as they served my hot lemon ginger tea with a skeleton hand lol. I've never had Russian mani/pedi before so it was an experience. Kamila, my technician, was very attentive and took her time with me. My experience with MStudio has me wanting to get my nails done more often!! But the price was a bit on the high end for me, but once in a while it's ok to splurge! Luckily, I'm only visiting NY otherwise $$$$. No doubt though, I would come back if in need of mani/pedi! read more

Worst Russian manicure I've ever received. Very painful, improper drill bit choice, too fast and rough, uneven, all nails different shape and thickness. Will not be returning. Oh and this was with their "top nail tech" at top $$$ Pictures show nails on 4th day. My cuticles are jacked up. read more

It's actually worse than originally thought. This business are liars. They are using non licensed techs to do nails. They lie about appts being canceled and they truly have zero clue what customer service is. Not ONE original tech, front desk "administrator" nor manager has lasted for over a couple of months. My nails are awful and are just healing from the cuts and looking at a white manicure that is now pink bc of stained blood. Never, never, never again - a very strange group of people. They make fun of their customers to their face bc they think we are "stupid Americans" looking for zero stars but as we know - that's not an option. Shame on everyone here. read more

I love this nail salon! I discovered it in March 2024 and I get no less than 3 compliments a week on my nails ever since coming here. The treatment and attention to detail is unmatched. Pro tip: Mondays are a fun day of the week to book an appointment- there's extra treats for clients :) Thank you as always to Karina the fabulous nail tech who is responsible for the artistry on my hands! The vibe in MStudio is top tier! read more

Very nice salon. Appointments are readily available, staff is nice, salon is very clean, and they offer quality service. I'm very happy with my manicure. I'm not too sure about their ability to do trendy designs (stamping, marble, cat eye) but for a regular one color manicure I was extremely happy. read more

Ok so is this the most I've ever spent on a manicure? Yes. Does it take longer than most manicures? Yes. Do I continue to go? Also, yes. I've been getting my nails done for over a decade. But I've always been a no fake tips and one color kind of girl. This studio makes your nails flawless, so much that people will think they're not your natural nails. The Russian manicure is a dry manicure that is somewhat controversial (I don't think it's legalized in every state) because they cut your cuticles down which is thought to put your nail bed at risk of infection. But this allows for a close to skin, no nail bed showing manicure that lasts for weeks. I'm talking 5+ weeks. And no it's never hurt me, they use a fresh enclosed tool pack for every client, and I've been several times without having any pain or getting an infection. They also use a rubber base that hardens and protects your nail from bending. I've had my nails done by Nazira, Esme, and Liza. All great but I love how meticulous Nazira is and Esme did an amazing job French manicure paint job for my wedding. A few other things to note- they don't take walk-ins, you need a credit card on file to make an appt and they will charge if you don't cancel 24 hrs before your appt (they send emails and texts to remind you). Unfortunately, they recently increased their prices (basic Russian gel manicure price is now $90) so I'm not sure how much longer I will go but if you've ever been curious to try a Russian manicure, I highly recommend it! read more

I'm so happy I decided to go with this salon Everyone here was super nice and accommodating. As a flight attendant I'm always on the go. Not only were they able to book me with an advanced tech Karina the day before, the entire booking process was straightforward and organized. The day of my appointment I showed up very sleepy, but Karina was a total sweetheart and never gave me attitude. Instead she worked with me. Eventually I had some coffee and fully woke up. My nails are beyond perfection. I'm extremely detail oriented. She made sure each nail looked perfect. Exactly like the picture I showed her. I highly recommend this salon, and the level of care and expertise with every person who I spoke with from the salon. I will definitely be back read more

Upon leaving I felt the manicure was the best I ever had! I explained I would be gone for 2 weeks and needed the manicure to last until a wedding I was attending. It's been 10 days and two nails have popped off with visibile lifting on multiple nails. I'm now needing to get them re-done 2 days before the wedding. For the price of service and my understanding of Russian manicures (lasting longer etc) I will not be returning read more

I love it here. My nails have never been healthier or looked better since I started going to M Studio. It's clean, the staff is lovely - professional and very accommodating.

Beautiful work, every time! I have visited twice now after being recommended this salon from a friend. They do Russian manicures, which means they take their time perfecting your cuticles.

M Studio - Nail Salons Near Me - New York, New York

I have gotten two manicures here and have loved them both. They are really good about keeping their appointment time- the most I've ever had to wait was about five minutes. They also offer you drinks and chocolates. Mira is the technician that I have been coming to see and she is the best! She is super precise and friendly. The Russian manicures are pretty pricey but I think it's worth it. My nails have never looked better and the manicure lasts about a month with no lifting or chips! I have posted pictures of my first and second manicure to show how much my nails have grown in four weeks. I would recommend making appointments about two weeks in advance because they do fill up quickly. The receptionist also offers to make your next appointment when you finish your service which is nice. read more

My manicure always lasts 4-5 weeks, and I'm sure it could last longer since it never chips. I just never tried. Definitely give the Russian manicures at MStudio a chance! read more

I've been here twice now and it is hands down THE BEST manicure I've ever gotten. I've gotten a Russian Manicure both times I visited. The service takes time (plan for 90min - 2 hours) and it is worth every second. The attention to detail is second to none. My first manicure still looked perfect over a month after my initial service. I only came back so soon because my nails started growing really fast and I wanted them to look tidy for my job. Their customer care is also fantastic. I booked my first appointment online it was a super easy process. When I called to schedule my second appointment I was greeted by name. I have had my nails done by Asya and Assel and both were fantastic. Run, don't walk here. read more

M Studio - Russian manicure! - Nail Salons Near Me - New York, New York

The salon is gorgeous and definitely has a luxurious, high-end vibe. I was greeted warmly when I arrived and although my nail tech was running a bit behind, I didn't mind because the ambiance was really nice. I know that Russian manicures generally take long, so I only book them on days where I have ample amounts of free time. I was in no rush, plus I was offered a cup of tea and chocolates by reception while I waited, which I thought was really sweet. The technician who serviced me didn't speak much English, and we had a bit of a hard time communicating during the appointment, but she was incredibly kind and I enjoyed being serviced by her nonetheless. I'm pretty boring when it comes to manicures and don't really like getting designs anyways, so there wasn't much to speak about. The nails came out gorgeous, and I tipped generously and left the salon really happy after my first appointment. Delighted by my positive experience at my first appointment, I booked my next one for the following month. After about two weeks however, I noticed that my nails were chipping severely. My natural nails grow really quickly, but are very fragile, so I get them wrapped in hard gel. As the gel began to chip, so did my natural nails underneath. I initially wasn't going to say anything, but the chips were getting progressively worse and I was worried about the health of my natural nails. Plus, the manicure was over $100. I reached out to the salon, they asked for photos (which I provided) and then never replied back. After a few hours I messaged them again to follow up and they told me that they only offer complimentary fixes within 5 days. They also said that since so much time has passed, it's likely that the chips were due to something I did and not related to the quality of the service provided. While I completely understand why it's necessary for businesses to have policies like this in place, exceptions should be made in instances where services are not completed properly. I tried explaining that the worst chips were on my non-dominant hand. It doesn't make sense for my nails to chip so severely on the hand that I use the least. The gel on each and every one of my nails is chipping/peeling at the tip, meaning that the free edges of my nails were not encapsulated with the gel. I always follow proper aftercare and take extra precautions to protect my natural nails since I know they're prone to breakage. I've been getting Russian manicures for a few months now, and my nails have never chipped this bad, especially not after two weeks. I expressed that I already had an appointment coming up in two weeks, but that I didn't think my nails were going to hold up until then. They said all they could do was offer me a $10 discount at my next appointment. I took a look at some of their more critical reviews and other people have had similar experiences. I don't have a problem with paying more for high quality experiences, but if I'm going to be paying so much for a manicure, I expect my nails to last 4-6 weeks as advertised. Especially since I upgraded to hard gel, which comes with a surcharge. I canceled my upcoming appointment and am going to look for a new salon which is upsetting because I will definitely be charged extra for foreign removal and correction. A simple fix of the severely chipped nail and an extra layer of gel on the tips of the other nails would have been enough to hold me over until my next appointment. If they would've been more understanding and actually offered a solution, I would have kept my future appointment. Customer service, nail health, and the quality of the service provided is much more important to me than aesthetics. I can't afford to have my natural nails exposed like this because they will definitely break off. The whole point of getting a Russian manicure in the first place is to protect the health of my natural nails. I really wanted to like this salon, but unfortunately I will not be returning. read more

I came to this place because it was recommended to me by my friend. And I regret it so much!! I spent $200+ for the manicure (they didn't have the color I wanted in a gel manicure, so I paid extra for a hard gel) and a regular pedicure without any nail polish, and look how chipped my nails are only after ten days. Every single nail is chipped (I also attached a my confirmation appointment email as a proof that I did my nails here). Don't come here, both manicure and pedicure took 2 hours like in a regular salons and i definitely do not recommend the tech lady who did it, save your money. read more

M Studio - My beautiful nails - Nail Salons Near Me - New York, New York

MY MANICURE LOOKS FAT, THICK AND UNEVEN, AND THE NAIL TECH WAS IN CONSTANT RUSH. I booked an appointment for gel removal + 1 nail extension + hard gel set (one color). The website suggested two hours. Either the manicure time needs to be extended or my nail tech wasn't properly trained? The nail tech acted impatient and in constant rush. She didn't care if I am happy with the shape, length or color. First, I asked her to file my nail sides more to get thinner-looking. ( I go to nail salon monthly or do my own nails, so I know my nails could be much narrower, see photo attached). Also, the nail tech next to me filed sides for her client too. However, she only filed couple seconds and moved on. She was impatient and kept on looking at her watch. When it came to nails length, she did ask me if I want to cut shorter, I said no in the first place because I wanted to see how it looks when all my extensions are removed. Then I realized they were too noticeable uneven, so I asked her to make the long ones shorter. Of course, she watched her watch again and filed a little bit and left them uneven. I liked the other customer's nail color and asked the same. She said there's not much left. So I asked for a French color based instead, which should be pinkish beige, nude, sheer pink or clear, but she only gave me two based options they used in French tips that I found them too pink and too saturated for French tips. I understood she was under time pressure so I compromised to quickly pick one instead of looking other colors. Seems like this salon gives their staffs a lot of time pressure by stacking up their appointments with no breaks. My nail tech's goal was definitely not about customer satisfaction. I would say this salon is quantity over quality. *Btw, they applied super thick hard gel in once, so all my fingers had burning sensation during polymerize/ UV curing which I rarely gets in other Russian hard gel salons. read more

It was my first time at Mstudio, I had mani&pedi done by Margarita. it was the best manicure I had in a long time, she was so detail oriented and my nails looked perfect after she was done. She is quite famous for her manicures but other girls were all pretty good too. One girl who caught my attention was Anya who did my eye brows. My eyebrows are very light and sparse, but after she was done , I had perfect eyebrows not too dark , not too wide, perfect arch and they looked perfect on my face. At the end of the appointment she offered to apply a lipstick on my lips. And wow she made my lips look like Angelina Jolie's lips :). I always thought I knew everything about lipsticks but I was wrong and the color that she mixed was such a perfect red for me. So 2 days later I made an appointment with her to teach me and my daughter her technique and I am so glad I did. Highly recommend for all girls, its better then to do fillers. 5+++++ Thank you Mstudio! read more

I got a gel manicure with simple nail art and a gel pedicure one week ago. The salon is clean and employees nice which is why I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1, but the quality of the services is questionable. For the pedicure, they used a buffing machine that heated up and kept burning my skin. My heel has been sensitive ever since, and one of my toe nail beds has been swollen since the appointment. For the manicure, they look good although they went a little shorter than I wanted, but my thumb nail chipped yesterday after only 6 days. I'm happy to spend more for a great quality service, but for the price point I expected a lot more. read more

I have been here a few times for a few different services - several manicures, a pedicure, and eyebrow shaping (wax, pluck,thread) and tint as well as eyelash lift/perm and tint, and WOW! I have never had such amazing, satisfying beauty services before in my life with such perfect results each time. High recommend all of the girls for manis/pedis (they specialize in "Russian" technique) and both Lena and Anna for beauty treatments such as eyebrows, eyelashes and make up! Anna even taught me how to properly apply eyeliner for my eyeshadow and lipliner and lipstick for my lip shape. The tint on both my eyebrows and eyelashes outlasted what I've had done at other salons and what I've done myself at home by over a week, maybe 2. The eyelash lifts also outlasted from multiple other salons by several weeks... and not a single lash was over curled or pointing in the wrong direction afterwards like can often happen with a couple of lashes after a lash lift/perm. My eyebrow shape was so perfect yet still looked natural for my face. I cannot recommend these ladies enough! Not only are they talented, but clearly extremely well trained and could easily compete with the best of celebrity stylists and make up artists. read more

A little backstory, I came into the salon with very thin, frail, and broken nails after five rounds of nail extensions from another salon that improperly removed my last set. Two of my nails were super painful because one nail bed was destroyed and the other nail had cracked deep into the skin so it was bleeding for days before. When I came to MStudio, they took me right when I got in, the girl was brand new but I had never in my life had such a gentle manicure. My nails are very sensitive and she was so gentle, that it was actually pleasant. She was mindful of the fact that my nails were thin, so they'd burn when getting my nails done and she went above and beyond. She was even able to reconstruct one of the split nails and it looks like nothing happened. I was the last client that night and didn't feel rushed, despite them waiting for me and my nail tech to finish so they close. I'm not going back to my old nail places, this is my new go-to. Highly recommend. read more
