Another vibey lovely experience at Nail Wah today. I did a back to back pedicure + gel manicure with 5 stickers. Definitely try calling and making a reservation online even on the day of as they are accommodating. My amazing nail tech and birthday twin, did a meticulous job on both my toes and nails. Wonderful person and true artist. They are consistent with their work as this is my second time here within a month. My last set lasted a long time and I think I could've gone another week. Their space is comfy and welcoming. Very efficient but they don't rush through the process. read more

Shocked to find someplace this good by accident. Make appointments and keep them. Clean. I am PICKY!!! Their attention to detail was the BEST! Seriously impressed. read more

I never thought anything in this world would bring me to Times Square, but that's before I met Daisy. For fear of TMI on the internet, my pedicures don't always last because my nails break. My pedicure from Daisy lasted a month with no chips! As she worked, she checked multiple times to make sure I liked the shape of my nails and how they looked in general. I couldn't recommend this salon enough! They also have chargers everywhere and cool charger/phone holders for when you get pedicures or are drying your nails. Daisy is "Sister 24". You won't regret it. read more

Nail WAH - Nail Salons Near Me - New York, New York

On vacation and needed a pedicure badly. Just by luck found Nail WAH and we were able to be seen quickly. You could choose the foot bath flavor: cucumbers, lemon, the water was a perfect ! Eunice was the nail lady that did my pedicure. I felt sure reassured that I could actually see the autoclaved sterile package of the instruments she would be using on me, and opened them in front of me. so very important to prevent fungus transmission!!! A ton of polishes to choose from. Complimentary iced/ hot tea- I chose iced citron and those ladies make a delicious tea! If I'm back in the area would definitely return. for those mobility impaired you need to climb a flight of stairs read more

Excellent service and manicure. I didn't have an appointment and they kindly managed to put me on the schedule. Look forward to returning again read more

Went here for a "treat myself date" with a friend before the show. Easy to make an online appointment for a pedicure. These ladies absolutely know what they are doing. Foot bath, scruffing, scrubbing, clipping and an amazing foot massage. As if that wasn't enough -- beverage was offered (I asked for coffee and was expecting air pot style) . But it was a smart little coffee made to order and it was perfect. Staff super friendly and the shop was cluttered but clean. Definitely worth every penny. And, my painted toes turned out amazing.....not gunna share a foot pic cuz nobody wants to see that shit. But yes, love this place and will be back!!!! read more

Chanced upon this place today and had the best pedicure. Not quick and not cheap but simply the best! Highly recommended. read more

This salon completely exceeded my expectations. From the moment I sat down, it was clear that care and precision were top priorities. The process felt thoughtful and unhurried, with consistent check-ins to make sure everything looked and felt right. The result held up beautifully far longer than expected, which really speaks to the quality of the work. The space is comfortable and well-equipped, making it easy to relax during the service. I walked out feeling polished and confident, knowing I'd found a place that truly values attention to detail and client satisfaction. read more

I don't normally review non-food places on Yelp but had to give credit where due, this was a 10/10 experience! I called in the day before asking for a last minute appointment. The owner accommodated their schedule to fit me in while ensuring my nails wouldn't be rushed. When I got there, Hazel (sister 15) and another tech were patient, thoughtful, and respectful to help me come up with the best approach. After I gave a very vague set of pictures and descriptions, they said they would do a "white sheer ombre Hailey Bieber nails." The end result was truly perfect to what I wanted!! The appointment lasted a bit over 2 hours. With each step, Hazel was efficient without cutting any corners. She was super meticulous, detail-oriented, and gentle. On top of that, unlike sometimes at salons where it feels like small talk is forced, the conversation with Hazel was so genuine and lovely. The salon does a lot to make it a wonderful experience. Hand mask during the manicure, complimentary tea and coffee options, wireless phone charging stands, and more! I don't get my nails done very often but I feel like the price was pretty par for the course. It was a total of $100 pre-tip ($48 for gel, $30 for ombre, and $18 for white chrome, plus tax). I didn't do removals or acrylics so I can't speak to that. read more

Tried this salon while my regular manicurist is on maternity leave. The initial greeting was not particularly warm. I was the first customer so a Good morning would have been nice. Also I was not offered a beverage although I did see a menu displayed. The space is lovely beautifully decorated, and the scented pedicure options plus foot/leg massage were very pampering. I appreciated the chargers at every station as well as the location. I had a mani/pedi with regular polish. I avoid gel because of how damaging the removal tends to be. Unfortunately, the manicure damaged my natural nails, leaving dents near the cuticles that will take months to grow out. I usually don't tell professionals how to do their jobs, but I would never allow mechanical files again -- they easily cause this kind of damage. If you want to protect your natural nails, I cannot recommend this salon. read more

Thanks for good service, friendly staff, fast work. Thanks so much for meeting all my needs read more

I had Adriana as my nail tech. She was quiet but very sweet. I honestly love my gel manicure. This is by far one of the best I have ever had. She is very detailed and gentle. read more

I always try to make it a point to come here whenever I visit New York. They have a wide array of colors to choose from, do an amazing job at foot massage and removing calluses, and just feels really laid back in there. read more

Found this based on reviews and first impression was nice. Saw from across the street as it's on the second floor above the Carvel. Stairs look a little precarious, but it wouldn't be NYC without that. They texted 30 minutes before to let me know they were running behind. I arrived right at time of appointment and you need to be buzzed into the building. A gentleman assisted with opening the door. Was directed to select polish then the scent (not really sure) for the pedicure. I choose the Jasmine one. Ample space behind the chair to put stuff aka heavy winter coat and a bag. Chairs were comfy, I didn't use the massage feature. The pedi started 20 minutes after the initial delay, so. Great job on the pedicure, she took her time and I didn't get polish, which cut a bit of waiting time in the end as I'd be stuffing them back into my socks/shoes. I'll keep this in mind for the area. read more

Absolutely fantastic service! I opted to do a cute cloudy night sky design, which the nail tech executed so wonderfully. She was really detail oriented and made sure I was comfortable through the entire process. I even got some guidance when selecting my colors, which was much needed as there were just so many options. And as seen in the picture, which was taken a week after my appointment, the nails hold up wonderfully. The place itself is small, but so adorably decorated. And they even offer you tea and drinks as you do your nails. All in all I absolutely loved this place, and already have an appointment to do a pedicure. Looking forward to my upcoming visit! read more

Nail WAH - Ignore my cuticles lol, this was taken literally a week after my appointment - Nail Salons Near Me - New York, New York

My nails were perfect and the staff were extremely friendly. They were even patient with me when I smudged them while waiting for them to dry and fixed them right up read more

My 1st visit was for a simple polish removal + filing - I love that they have this option because some salons don't want to just removal only. But WAH Sister 3 took her time with my removal and filing, which I appreciate. My 2nd visit was for a removal + gel manicure. Since it was a Friday, appointments were completely booked, so I put myself on the wait list, and luckily spots opened up. When I arrived, the manicure seats were all taken, so they did my manicure in the pedicure chair, which was okay with me. WAH Sister 4 was very nice, and she was patient with me in choosing my nail polish colors according to my inspiration photo. Space is very clean and relaxing. And due to its proximity to my workplace, I'll definitely be back again! Note - I don't want to take off a star for this but WAH Sister 4 did drill a little too close to my cuticle nail bed on 1 finger when she was taking off my old polish and it cut me a little. Hopefully, this was just due to the fact that she was doing my manicure while standing up. read more

Nail WAH - Gel Manicure with 3 colors - perfect transitional manicure! - Nail Salons Near Me - New York, New York

I haven't been to a salon in a while, but my poor feet were suffering due to the harsh winter and I desperately needed a pedicure. I decided to treat myself to a manicure as well because ~self care is the best kind of care~. Even though the salon is located in Times Square, it's on the 2nd floor, so you don't hear the hustle and bustle of the busy streets. The salon itself was very relaxing and quiet. The pedicure was great - I got the vegan pedicure done. You have an option on what type of scent you want to be used for the service - I chose olive for a neutral scent, but there's also watermelon and eucalyptus. After the pedicure, I got a gel manicure with a design. I liked how you could text a picture of the design you want for an estimate cost - I was quoted $25 for "high intensity" design, which I thought was really reasonable. Jeeyoung was really nice and made sure she replicated reference picture - she really took her time to make sure I was satisfied with the colors and the design which was great. After the service, you get an option for a drink to-go! Since it was pretty chilly, I got the citrus tea and it was a nice treat after a self-care day. 100% recommend if you are looking for a place that does gel + nail art. read more

This place does a nice job, but they charged me $10 to remove non-toxic gel from another salon even though I was getting a non-toxic gel manicure. At least they should have mentioned it before starting my service. Over $72 for a basic gel manicure with tip is too high in my humble opinion. The stairs up to the salon are the very steep variety. They did offer a small tea of your choice and it is very clean. If not for the $10 charge, I would have left happier. read more

So good, every time. All the nail techs here really take their time and I've loved every gel mani I've had. read more

This is the best nail salon I've ever visited - PERIOD. Attention to detail? Unmatched. Flexibility with appointments? Yessir. Holiday gifts and a nice hot (free!) drink with every appointment?! Say less. One time, my tech was working on my nails right before closing. She saw some of the polish lines weren't even (I'm a stickler and even I didn't notice that!) She offered to do all my nails again because she wasn't pleased with the quality. These are people INVESTED in artistry AND making you look your best. I miss this place passionately and I make it a point to visit whenever I'm in NYC. Nail WAH for life! read more

Very fast and nice experience. Gel manicure hasn't chipped. Very calm atmosphere. My manicure has lasted for over three weeks. Very decent price for a nail salon in Manhattan. read more

They fit me into their busy schedule. The service was really good and the nail tech. Did a wonderful job.

Man I love this place. They are super professional, clean and accommodating. It was my first time and I had an appointment for 5 but I had to push it back to 6 they ACCOMMODATED me. I get a call that their heat went out and have a small heater I say it's okay and when I arrive they ACCOMMODATED ME. After the masks are seen and worn, temperature is taken, hands must be sanitized then coats are taken by her assistant aka her husband. The decor is super clean and bright. Pink walls with bold ROYAL/CAULIFLOWER BLUE DOORS and nice artwork. Love it. Anyhoo she transformed my crusty feet that hadn't been done since January I did a Vegan Pedicure and let me tell you it was impressive. It was a foot facial. Cleansed, Scrub, mask and the clipping cutting shaping and then a device to scrub my crusty heels. I then did a gel manicure but not just any gel manicure. She puts these gloves on filled with COLLAGEN. I loved it because the gloves protect your hands from the gel machine UV lights and the finger tips are pulled off so she can do her work. AMAZING. But what really got me was the lovely Christmas music playing then you are given hot tea on your way out, some candy too and a Christmas gift. They also gave me 30% off since it was my first time. Prices are higher than I normally pay but they are worth every penny. You get a lot for your money. You get one on one service. Tools are thoroughly sterilized. Products are organic and individually packaged. Appointments are made by phone or texting. Check them out on IG too. But you must make an appointment and wear your MASK. What a great addition to Times Square. I found my new nail family @Nailwah. read more

This is one of the best nail salons, if not THEE best, I've been to! It's clean, efficient and great customer service. The nail techs truly take time and care with your hands and feet in addition to your nails. They essentially treat you like royalty while you're here. They also offer water and delicious teas to sip as your nails dry and have coffee cups to go. Having a warm cup of tea to hold in your newly polished fingers is the perfect winter-time pick me up. I will be back here during the summer as well. I love the luxurious pampering this place provides with every manicure and pedicure. No more bleeding cuticles or sloppy paint jobs for me now that I've found Nail WAH. They didn't even ask me to leave a review but I just had to after having such a great experience. read more

Don't be tricked by the terrible neighborhood. This second floor Korean nail salon is super clean and cutely decorated. Service is great - at least when I went on a weeknight it was not crowded at all and the person didn't rush through the session but even stayed a little overtime for me. They do your nails while you are wearing these collagen skincare gloves with your fingertips exposed. I enjoyed the quirky artworks and cotton candy cute decor. After you're done they send you off with a complimentary cup of tea/coffee. Who even does that. Great service and I have to say the best I've experienced in NYC! read more

This was probably one of the best manicures I've ever gotten! I texted Nail Wah and made an appointment with Jee Young and also sent reference pictures. They were very responsive and even notified me that I could come in earlier for my appointment. The salon is so cute and clean, and Jee Young was extremely patient and gave me the exact manicure I wanted! My nails usually grow out a little flatter so I was so surprised when she was able to shape them to a more almond/oval shape. I also had broken and chipped nails from a previous manicure, and she helped me save my nails! Jee Young was precise and very skilled, and the salon as a whole provided a great service. They even give you a complimentary tea to go at the end. Can't wait for my next mani! read more

Great place to come and relax! I had a super stressful morning and came to NailWah for a long overdue pedicure. I had the Organic Spa Pedicure with the Pomergrante Lime soak. It was super relaxing as my legs were massaged, warm towel mud soak, super gentle and non ticklish pumice scrub on my feet. JEE definitely revived and smoothed my tired feet and legs. Jee was super sweet, awesome, and diligent that service flew by in no time! I will definitely be back for another pedicure. read more

They did an incredible job with my nails! My tech was so through, she filed my nails to the perfect shape and kept holding my hands together to compare to make sure they were even.

Amazing nail salon located right in midtown manhattan that may become my go to now! Jee young is so sweet and kind and very gentle. Usually pedicures make me slightly uncomfortable as my feet are really sensitive but this one was amazing and I didn't even squirm from feeling ticklish. Her and her husband are so cute and very nice and even offered me complimentary tea which I believe is included with any service. Support this local business! Also the decor is super cute and they have phone stands for you while you get your mani done! So thoughtful. Plus they have unique colors 'cause many of their polishes are Korean brands and directly imported from there! There's a cute Disney collection there right now. read more
