I love the Salon, very accommodating, comfortable, the staff are all very nice and I find the price very reasonable. I don't do anything fancy, so I can't speak to that, I just get a regular pedicure and gel nails. I'm in and out quickly for a very reasonable price$$. read more

Went for a pedicure. The salon was not the cleanest. Didn't use a liner in the bowl. They sat someone down next to me where another person had just left and did not disinfect it. Overall experience was terrible. Not clean, rushed, the polish looked horrible. Do not go. Horrible quality and dirty. read more

I repeatedly told them i only wanted them to remove my acrylics and that I was in a rush. They wouldn't take no for an answer and after 10 no's just started painting my nails without asking me for a color or anything. Not only would I never go back again, I would advise everyone to boycott this place. Please don't give them any business. They are mean, have no customer service skills, and are honestly just scam artists. read more

Terrible service， do not recommend this. The people who do my nails do not care about clients nails health. The service was not professional. read more

You get what you paid for = Pedi $29 If you are looking for a half a$$, small, outdated salon + color selection, semi clean salon and a pedicure in 22 minutes this is the place for you. The lady next to me set down the same time i did, while she's getting her feet scrubbed and massaged, i'm getting lotion smeared on my legs in 60 seconds, no hot stone, no massage, no scrubbing the feet, no cuticle cutting no attention to details. When i got up she told me where my shoes were and where to go dry my feet, when I paid she was lingering uncomfortably for a tip she didn't deserve. When I left, the lady next to me just set to dry her toes. I mean the whole experience was something to write about on yelp. So i wont be going back, but if you like what you hear, go for it! read more

Ugh could you up sale anymore. Annoying. And then when I pay extra for a massage you just rub my calf. I find most nail places do that. I sale yes to the upsale of a massage and the person just zones out rubbing my calf in the same spot for 10 minutes. It's a fine place but I had my daughter with me and the lady is like oh she wants a snowflake on the nails. Extra charge. Oh she wants them on her toe. My daughter is 4 and didn't even know that was an option she was just up selling me. Whatever. It's just a regular nail place. Nothing that would make me want to go back. read more

Easily one of the worst gel manicures I've received. I stopped in today at 4:45, they had TWO staff working including Kim.. so naturally they're rushing. The gel is clearly old and bubbles when dry (see picture below). Quality has gone downhill at Nail To her response: I've been going for 3 years and watched the quality significantly decrease over the years, I've recently switched to Four Season in wellesley and it's not even comparable. For you to say you asked me each step of the way is horseshit you were too busy talking about your clients in your own language to pay attention to me as a customer. I expect better service as I've been a customer for 3 long years. As for the time I walked out without paying, you could've easily asked for that payment the next time I was in.. I'm not homeless or lacking the funds to pay considering I've been coming every two weeks for 3 years? Your response was absolutely pathetic read more

HORRIBLE!!!!! Asked for same color nails / toes - they put a different color on toes and didn't tell me or ask me if OK to use different color me - UNTIL I NOTICED AND ASKED WHY ARE THE COLORS DIFFERENT? Sketchy mumbles from two staff members. Sloppy work at BEST. Dirty utensils - nothing came out of a sterilizing unit of any sort No clean towels for hands or for feet. Barely cleaned cuticles. SLOPPY SLOPPPY SLOPPY But they were able to run after me and tell me that my gratuity didn't go through on Venmo. Then they added their own $12.00 tip to my charge WICH WAS UNAUTHORIZED. read more

Stopped in for a manicure - they were quick which was nice but didn't care at all that I was there two different people did my manicure and there was no massage - instead the woman put lotion on my hands and that was it. Won't go back read more

Very bare bones, but my gel manicure turned out so good! The staff was great with helping me decide on a color and were very friendly. I've already gotten compliments on my nails. I definitely will be back! read more

I absolutely love Kim and her team. They always provide great customer service. Hanh and the gentleman whose names always escapes me always does a great job on my toes and fingers. They especially take care to make sure when I request custom nails to do a diligent job and you can tell they love what they do! Ever since my old salon got sold, I've been coming to Nail It whenever I need to get mine done, which is probably a good 2 years now. I don't go regularly since I have pretty long nails and my polish usually lasts about 20+ days, but I go often enough that they know me here by name and face. Prices are about average as with most salons, so no complaints there. They'll charge me a lil extra for my custom work, but it's fair. Whenever someone wants to pamper themselves and wants to get their nails done, I always suggest Nail It and/or go with them! You can say.... they Nailed It!!! read more

This place is pretty good. They are generally able to handle walk-ins, which is great because leisure Nails across the street most often cannot. Their pedicures are generally good, but They generally rush through the process so overall it feels leas satisfying. They have a good range of colors and the place is clean. It is a fairy small salon, not as open and airy as the place across the street read more

My nails were all hacked up and I was tired of it. Decided to do a walk in here at 6:05 even though they close at 7pm. They're super nice and I got a great manicure for an amazing price by one of the younger girls! I'm not too fussy yet she really paid attention to what my nails needed. read more

Nail It - Excellent manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Newtonville, Massachusetts

We went here to get a Mani/Pedi and we had no appointment. So for letting us in without appointment for 2 mani/pedi and one polish change I will give them thumbs up! However, they did as short a pedi/mani as possible and for $38 & $28 respectively for each set of mani/pedi they are pricey and didn't use any brush to clean toes, cuticle remover for fingers etc! If the idea was to just not turn down a customer but cut short on service, then we're so sorry to have walked into this salon! After getting a short job on services, I still don't believe in tipping very less, but good lesson for future to not walk in and get only half a service done! So thank you for taking us in on short notice but NO thanks for incomplete service! read more

This is a very peculiar nail salon. The prices are great, the people are friendly, the colors are numerous. However, I've gotten two manicures there now and the technician pushes back my cuticles, soaks my nails, and then paints them. Neither time did anyone so any work on the skin around my nails, which is quite shabby, and I believe completely standard for any manicure I've ever gotten. Given that there are so many salons in the area, I might try another place. read more

Gorgeous nail salon, great service, nail technicians are very nice and skilled. Customers are also friendly. All in all, a great neighborhood nail salon! read more

My friend and I went to get our nails done there on Saturday. We both got gel which usually takes a little longer but the nail people did it in 15 minutes. Our nails looked awful and they still do because they didn't spend their time on our nails. We will never be going back there ever again. Worst nail salon ever. read more

Today was my first time here and I was extremely satisfied. I'm going out of town this weekend and only had tonight free to get my nails done. They took me close to closing time without complaint, they did a beautiful job on my nails, the salon was really well designed, modern, and clean. I will definitely be coming back! read more

Been going here for years. Excellent service and always good advice for picking out colors. My gel polish usually lasts almost 3 weeks!

I used to be a frequent loyal customer here. The prices are great, the techs are friendly. But it does seem like their service has gone downhill. Their gel manicures no longer last me the guaranteed 2 weeks. I found another place a couple months ago in Watertown and their gels seem to last pretty long. Don't think I will be back unless I'm in dire need of a pedicure. read more

I got dip powder done 2 days ago & they're already cracking and chipping on both hands. This normally lasts me 2-3 weeks, not 2-3 days. Service was also rushed read more

First, they are a nice people and try to please. I cannot recommend them since I did not get the best manicure (nails are uneven with sharp square edges). The color selections tends to be whatever the current fad is and they are lacking anything neutral or classic. Wanted to like the experience yet couldn't. read more

I went for a polish change. I could have done a better job. Sloppy. When I went to pay, the woman started to reach into my purse for a credit card. I understand she didn't want me to smudge my nails, but ask first. I would not return to this place. read more

Worst manicure ever! Cut my skin and nails looked worse leaving then when I arrived. Will never go back. I actually leave no stars!

You get what you pay for. I tried Nail It for my new acrylic set because it was cheaper than my usual place. Now I know why. Three acrylics came off within 3 days of originally getting the set. I called in and they told me to stop by and they'd fix it. They told me to wait a minute, but it took them an hour to get to me. (Will touch more on this later). I suggested maybe it was the glue they used that made it fall off, and they said it was because my natural nails were small (they cut them but maybe they meant narrow). Clearly it's not that because at my usual place I can wait like two weeks before a fill. Literally that day, all the new ones and the old ones came off again. Rather than bother going back to fix it, I went and got a new set at my usual place. But how was the original service? Awful! Unlike a normal salon, they don't really assign one person to you, and instead have people rotating around. I assume this is supposed to be more efficient, but not for the customer. A lot of time is spent just waiting for them to come back. Services were lackluster - their acrylic mani is literally sloppily applying them and painting - no lotion, cuticle trimming, anything remotely extra. I feel bad leaving one star, since they did fix it the first time for free. But this is not worth it. In trying to save like $12 (idk the price of the acrylic mani bc I got it alongside my pedi which btw was ill-shaped and lackluster as well), I ended up wasting like $25. read more

Very polite staff, but was very rushed. they took six mins on my entire pedicure from start to finish with little attention to detail. Left some scrub on my legs. Nail technician was on the phone most of the time. nails were done ok but not great. Overall not the best experience. read more

Terrible Service. We were rushed to pick colors, uneven filing and cuticle work. No hand massage or cuticle cram/ oil. We had 2 pedicures, one Gel manicure and one regular manicure. There is no effort to make sure we were in comfortable positions, edges of nails were not polished, uneven and ragged filing. I Do not recommend and will not return. read more

So good. I love the shop. The service, the way they take care customer .we will be back.we will recommend to everyone. The best shop. Nails it read more

Polite staff but my gel manicure chipped on a few nails after just 5 days. Usually my manicure lasts at least 2 weeks. Would not recommend

I decided to try this place because it is a little closer to my house . This is very no frills. The nails techs speak to each other in their language only. Not friendly. They did a nice job on the gel nails - no parrafin, oil,or nice smelling cream. Very basic. They do the minimum they can get away with. Im sticking with Iris nails. read more

5 stars for the pedicures and waxing! Kim always makes me eyebrows look perfect and she's super sweet! Manicure was only so-so for me, significant chips after only 2 or 3 days, but I am really hard on my hands so maybe I should have just sprung for the gel. Great selection of polishes, but not so many that you'll be overwhelmed. They take cards but bring cash to tip. read more

I've been here twice and I'm very pleased with this new addition to Newtonville. Both times I was that annoying person who was in a time crunch and had to be in and out quickly. They did a great job on my nails, and they finished me up right on time. Since I had so little time to dry, the woman working on me was concerned that I would smear. I really appreciated the fact that she told me to come back in and get it fixed for free if I made a mess of the job walking around in my boots 5 minutes after the last coat was done. Nail It is very well-priced for the area, and the atmosphere is slightly more upscale than most of the other nearby nail places. It's also extremely clean! read more

Awesome clean salon great pedicure with Lily, and beautiful acrylic nails done by Kim. Definitely will be back , great addition to Newtonville!! read more

Nail it is my go-to place for a mani-pedi. The staff who work there are super friendly and do a great, thorough job, and I am still in and out within an hour. They are super accommodating to walk-ins, which is great for me because I often decide I want my nails done at the most random times. Their prices are some of the best around as well. Highly recommend!! read more

Have been here several times and have had great consistent service and quality work. I like the prices are competitive with boston (Newton tends to be $10-$15 more) and the service has always been great for me. read more

I love this salon. It's comfortable and clean. Hahn is my favorite manicurist. She always has suggestions of the best colors for the season, pays attention to detail and never rushes the job. Everyone who works there is very friendly and the environment is pleasant and relaxing: read more

Very disappointed in this manicure. The manicurist seemed to be rushing and it showed in the end result. My nails were shaped crooked and cut unevenly. The polish selection was limited, particularly in light colors, and ended up being bubbly and uneven. I got this manicure because I was going to a wedding over the weekend, but I ended up taking the polish off and reshaping my nails as soon as I got home. Save your money. read more

Cute little salon, great pedicure. I don't remember her name, but she was very sweet. Also they have amazing massage chairs. Pedicure was $27 which is cheap for the area. If I wouldn't move next week, I would def come back! read more
