Finding a place in Hoboken that does acrylic nails well has been hard.

After some research and reading a bunch of reviews on 718 I decided to give them a try. I've been going for several months now and have been very pleased! Tip: make your appointment well in advance! They book up quickly :)

I did miss massage chairs from my other nail salons. The lady who attended me was very sweet. The pedicure included washing, cleaning, hot stone massage, hot towel massage and wax coat. The color choices are limited here but I was able to find what I wanted. Manicure was pretty standard. The mood here was great and I'm definitely coming back. They have a great deal for Monday- Wednesday. I wish I had time for mani pedi on weekdays. I'm def coming back here

I just moved to NJ and was looking for a new salon. I found this on Yelp and the reviews seemed…read morepretty good so I decided to give Shining Nails a shot.... I am underwhelmed and the reviews were too kind. I booked a 6:15 pm appointment with Alicia as there were some reviews about her. I get to my 6:15 pm appointment at 6:05 pm. It is a tiny salon on the corner. As I walk in I am not greeted just stared at so I walk to the back and let them know I have an appointment. They told me to sit down. After sitting I realized they had not sat me with Alicia and the tech looked visibly annoyed and handed me a bunch of gel color books. I stopped looking at the books for a second and she scolded me asking me if I had picked a color. When I mentioned that I had an appointment with Alicia, another tech came over and explained that Alicia was with another customer and that me booking with her did not guarantee me getting her. I was baffled and asked why. She explained that I had not made a note that I really wanted to see Alicia they had sat me with the next available tech - which is bizarre. The girl I had was rude and rushed through the entire pedicure. She massaged my feet for about 90 seconds. The techs are unwelcoming and it was an uncomfortable experience. The price is steep and the customer service lacks. I've never been to another salon that forces you to make a note to get an appointment with who you really want. Needless to say I won't be back.

Love this place! Beautiful, high quality nails. Always use the massage chairs. Highly recommend.read more

After hearing loads of buzz about Nailed It, which did so well in its first year that it was able…read moreto open a second location, I finally decided to give it a shot the other day. In addition to the hype, I heard that they offered Dazzle Dry, a service that was new to me but was essentially a long-lasting manicure without the need for harsh gel polish and all of the issues that go along with that. I read several reviews for this original location and saw that Kitty was highly recommended, so I booked an appointment with her on their website. I arrived at the salon and found it clean, modern, and cozy, but a bit cramped. I checked in at the front desk and was told to sit at the last desk, where my manicure then began. My technician was extremely careful and detailed. She filed my nails perfectly, was very gentle while trimming my cuticles, and expertly painted each digit. However, I did notice that she followed a slightly different process than on the Dazzle Dry website in that she did not leave a lot of time between each coat and let the top coat dry for 10 minutes (rather than 5) before applying the finishing oil. (I gave it some time before I wrote this review to see how that would affect the length of the manicure, but it lasted for over two weeks! I even heavily cleaned my apartment during that time and did not experience any chipping. I was impressed!) As my treatment was wrapping up, I heard someone call out for "Kitty", but she was addressing an entirely different woman. It was at that point that I realized that I had been engaging with another beautician. I did not want to make a big deal out of it, but I asked the front desk attendant who had worked on me, and she said "Yolanda". I was a bit annoyed that they had altered my appointment without saying anything to me, but since Yolanda had done such a nice job, I just let it go. At least I now know of two recommended manicurists!

I didn't have to wait long for someone to take me upon arrival. My initial thought is "wow this place is TIGHT," it feels super cramped. And it was crowded on a weekday at 3PM. Very hoboken crowd, iykyk. I get assigned to a manicurist who really isn't that friendly. Low-key rude and not pleasant. They randomly ask me to switch manicurists to the girl next to her. Don't give me a reason why. I ask the manicurist why and she just shrugs. OK? I had my own nail polishes because I'm super picky about that thing. The new girl was kind. Sweet. Very young. We spoke Spanish. You can tell she was new because the rude manicurist was telling her what not to do and what to do next. My manicure was OK. I gave her a good tip because I knew she was new and they were just being rude to her. My cuticles were cut up the next day, weird because I've never had that happen to me. Doubt I'll return. Too bad because the place was nice and clean just so cramped.

Kimmy's work is perfect. I can not recommend her enough. I used to get Japanese gel done in NYC…read morebefore the pandemic, and had been tolerating normal gel manicures from typical nail salons in Hoboken. It wasn't the same! Regular gel would chip or water would get under the gel and ruin it, within one week. Japanese gel is far superior and lasts weeks until you take it off. It's important to find not only this type of gel, but also someone who knows how to apply it, and Kimmy is the best. She shaped my nails perfectly. She worked swiftly but also took care and paid close attention to detail to ensure that my nails would last a long time. Kimmy has wonderful presence and chats with you while she's working on your nails. She'll ask you if you like something or prefer to change something as she goes, which is great. It makes for a really pleasant experience. You can tell she really enjoys what she does. I'm so glad to have found Kimmy in Hoboken. 5 stars :)

An appointment is always preferred so they can staff the day accordingly. You do have to be patient as a walk-in, but they'll make sure you're taking care of as soon as they're done with a customer. Yes, the owner is a serious person but she gets the job done and will warm up to you. Cindy is a gem and has the most gentle hands and personality. Lucinda (if I didn't get the name wrong) is a lovely girl as well and has taken the best care of brows. Prices are very reasonable and the way they work makes any price point worth the experience. I can't wait to come back in two weeks.
