Warning: this business took over the original LeCharme Nail Salon using the same products and…read moreadvertisement of the old name. Some old staff are still there as well. New business management and new business name: Magnolia Nail Spa 4 The inside of the shop is still the same as old business Le Charme but it's not the same. Service and quality isn't the same under their old manager Ryan. I personally felt like it was a trap that they continue to use the LeCharme name and website when they had clearly changed. I was confused when I arrived and saw the name change but still gave them a chance as I had booked an appointment via Le Charme website and only had that day to get my nails done before going to a wedding on the West Coast. Also, even though I had an Spa Pedicure appointment for 10AM (opening time) I still had to wait. Other customers came in (either appt or walk in) and were seen first... they also had to call for more Nail technicians to come. I sat at the manicure station flipping through gel color templates waiting for Nail tech to see me. I already choose but waiting, at one point they had forgotten me until someone asked me what I wanted and I had to repeat myself again. I picked a spa pedicure treatment and selected gel as I heard gel last longer. It was my first time getting gel but I wanted to look my best for the wedding I'll be attending. I asked for paraffin wax for my feet and callus treatment. They were confused and said paraffin is already included in the spa package (I remember it is usually for heel only and I wanted for the entire feet) but they insisted it was included and for the entire feet, so I said okay and let them do their thing. Service was decent but my nail tech had rushed and missed a few spot. She didn't apply the polish carefully and throughly. It was like coloring your hair, they always leave a gap from the hairline so you can return for touchup. In my pic, you can see my toes didn't look as nice and pic was taken about 1.5-2hrs later (after appointment, I had quick lunch and went straight home). While I did enjoy the spa pedicure, because I wanted to pamper my feet, she was abit rough at times and rushed it. And no, she didn't apply paraffin wax to the entire feet; just the heel. I was willing to pay extra but they didn't do that. If you don't know, paraffin wax help rehydrate and trap in moisture and it's particularly effective for those who often get calluses to help in removing dead skin, and healing dry patches. It acts like a form of heat therapy and can help increase blood flow, relax muscles, and decrease joint stiffness. It can also minimize spasms and inflammation as well as treat sprains. When it was time to pay, I thought I would have to shell out more for everything as I didn't know what the actual cost would be. I wanted Spa Pedicure package with Gel Color. Callus Treatment $10, Gel pedicure $55 & Spa Pedicure $45. I had assumed they would charge abit extra for the Gel coloring ontop of the Spa Pedicure package. After I paid and walked out (no receipt was given to me and I had hope to take a pic of the bill but the total was present quickly to me and was out of my view) and walked down the street, the owner lady came out chasing me saying I needed to pay more. I follow back and she said something else was charged to me.. again wasn't able to see the bill and had to trust her word and paid more. I finally left and disappointed later on when I examined my feet at home. I think its time to find a new Nail Salon.

My tech's name was Hebe and she was wonderful! She gave a great 10 minute massage that accompanied my upgrade green tea spa pedicure. She was very meticulous and took her time. I didn't have to micromanage her every step of the way and actually got to relax in my massage chair. My color was gel #269 which was a very lovely coral/ pinkish color perfect for spring. My legs are soft and my aching feet were massaged back to life. For $5, I opted to enroll in their membership program, which was the activation fee. I plan to come here more often and maybe even go back to trying gel manicures like I did years ago as a treat. Get your gift cards here for Mother's Day gentlemen!!!

I had what might be the most unpleasant nail appointment I've ever sat through. From the start, she was rushing, and not in a subtle way. When I politely asked her to ease up because she was hurting me, she barely grazed her glove and said "see? Doesn't hurt" -- completely dismissing what I was telling her about my own pain. She then continued at the same pace and pressure. Being heard was simply not on the agenda. The quality of the work matched the attitude. One of my nails had a visible thread of polish hanging off it, clearly about to crack, and when I pointed it out she told me she didn't know what I was talking about and couldn't see anything. I could see it. And sure enough, by the end of the same day, that nail had already cracked and was looking overgrown. Same-day results like that tell you everything you need to know. I paid good money to leave feeling dismissed, hurt, and with nails that were already failing before I got home. I'd strongly recommend requesting a different tech if you visit Latouie -- or doing your research before sitting down.

I had a really disappointing experience at Lovely Rose Nail Spa and won't be returning…read more During my pedicure, my toenail was cut so short that it went past the skin. While doing my nails, the technician accidentally spilled clear gel polish all over my feet and didn't seem concerned about it. Throughout my manicure, she repeatedly squeezed my fingers so tightly that I told her multiple times she was hurting me, but nothing changed. The pricing was also inconsistent. I was initially told a nail design would cost $40, but after I declined, the price suddenly dropped to $10, which felt misleading. The worst part was that I was left with my hands under the UV lamp while my technician walked away to do someone else's pedicure. I was sitting there for several minutes, and the heat became so intense that I had to speak up because I couldn't keep my hands in the lamp any longer. She only returned after I complained I was going to leave. When I explained my negative experience to the man working there, he only asked about the clear gel on my feet and ignored the rest of my concerns. IT WAS CLEAR how can I show that? Overall, the customer service and attention to clients were very disappointing. I left feeling uncomfortable and unheard, and I can't recommend this salon based on my experience.

First, we were GIVEN basic pedicures, not an option to choose a spa pedicure and asked to select a scent like most places. But the guest next to me was given an option. The guy attempted to be very meticulous on painting my toes, but ultimately, he took forever for a barely decent job and he didn't paint all of my pinky toe nails, and I was left with most of the paraffin wax still on my shoes and feet. I had to take one of the tools and remove the excess lotipn from nail bed and under the nails to show him what he missed! They did such a bad job that they didn't charge me for my pedi. We went elsewhere for nails. They had several clientele that seemed to be regulars so it seems as they cater more towards appointments than walk-ins. Won't be back there.

Update: Mini Master continues to be one of the premier nail salons in Brooklyn, renowned for its friendly staff and experienced nail technicians. I am extremely satisfied with the final result. Mini Master Nail & Spa is conveniently located in the heart of Bay Ridge. The establishment places a strong emphasis on cleanliness and customer satisfaction. The staff consistently follows proper sterilization protocols, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment, which allowed me to confidently bring my children for manicures. The decor features a modern design, including state-of-the-art massage chairs and stylish glass foot basins. Services received included nail extensions with gel manicure, a pedicure, and a regular manicure. The total cost was $110, offering excellent value for the quality and range of services provided.

This is a nail art so beautiful，Every time I come here, there are different and most fashionable styles. Their designs are very good and the environment is good. It is best to make an appointment because they are quite busy. I like the girl at the second table at the door the most. Her skills are so perfect, but she is also the most difficult manicurist to make an appointment with. I have been doing manicures here for three years and the girl has never changed. read more

Thank goodness that a few blocks down I found Nailspree. No heavy scent. Appeared to be neat. The customers in the store looked happy/satisfied. I could communicate with one of the techs. She spoke English decently. The others seemed to barely speak English. If you're willing to be patient about that, this place can work for you. My tech was Joan. She only works on Sunday. She had a sweet demeanor and her work was gentle and meticulous. It was a bit pricier here than the 1st location I checked out but worth it. Overall, still less expensive than Manhattan and NJ.
