NAILBERRY - So pretty thank you! - Nail Salons Near Me - Astoria, New York

I was a regular at this shop for over a year but after my last visit, I will not be returning. I typically don't leave reviews but this was the second time that one of the workers (who also works behind the front desk) was extremely rude to me. I was receiving a pedicure and was cut to the point where blood was flowing from my big toe. The pedicurist apologized and suggested I put my foot back in the water. I told her I didn't feel comfortable doing so and kept my foot out. She held a paper towel on my big toe until the bleeding stopped, then went to grab a green liquid for the cut. I asked her what it was, but there was a bit of a barrier in us understanding each other. Blood has never been drawn at a nail salon so I felt like leaving immediately. I told her she didn't need to finish the job. She was apologetic and kind and said she could still finish. I took some deep breaths and told her that I'd stay, but asked that she only paint half of my big toe. I was concerned about this shared brush/polish touching my open cut. She finished the job and I then received my nail service from someone else. After the service, I paid for both my fingernails and toenails on my card, then asked for change. The woman behind the counter watched as I counted out my bills. I then handed the manicurist a 20% tip. The woman behind the desk said, I had another service done suggesting I leave a tip for the pedicurist. I told her that the pedicurist cut my toe and I was bleeding quite badly therefore I decided to forgo the tip this time around. I was shocked when she raised her voice and rudely said if I didn't tip, that she would have to pay her. I didn't understand this at all. I calmly told her that I'm a great tipper and have always tipped at least 20% for my services every single time. I told her that I'd never bled in a nail salon until today, but this did not make her let up. At this point, she was dismissive and basically shooed me away. Truth be told, 20% has always been my MINIMUM tip, so I was really blown away by her aggressively insisting that I tip. I shouldn't have been surprised because of how rude this same woman was the last time I interacted with her. Our previous interaction involved me returning to the shop 2 days after my nail service because the paint was chipping. You all know how much time it takes to get your nails done in the first place, and its a hassle when you have to return just 2 days later. Despite this not being my fault, the woman accused me of having done something to which I reminded her that she JUST did my nails. She was so rude that before I left that day, I even told the kind manager (Johnny) that I didn't appreciate how she mistreated me. Johnny apologized, and mentioned that there was something up with the polish. Sidenote: Johnny is an absolute gem and although I'll genuinely miss seeing and talking with him during my visits, its clear to me that its time to find a new salon. read more

NAILBERRY - Powder/gel - Nail Salons Near Me - Astoria, New York

WARNING VERY LONG AND DETAILED REVIEW I APOLOGIZE IN ADVANCED TO ALL THE SPELLING AND GRAMMATICAL ERRORS :( Worst customer service . My latest experience at the nail berry has been the worst of all. I called in for a 6pm apt a day in advanced for me and my very dear friend from out of town . I chose this place because I had recently done a powder set with tips and it lasted and came out phenomenal. Kudos to that nail tech. But unfortunately that would not be my experience this time around .I walked in at 5:56pm on the dot and explained to an employee that I was here for my 6pm and my friend was Two doors down. Immediately I was ignored and left to sit for an additional 15 minutes the only reason a nail tech came by me was because she was I was frustrated looking at the gel colors. Once seated I explained to the tech ( not the same tech from past good experiences) that this time I wanted to soak off the powder tips and start off fresh and new without tips since my natural nails had grown to my desired length on the initial soak we noticed that one of my thumbs was shorter than the rest of my nails . I told her to file it to match the rest of my fingers . I even asked her if she though that ombré which is the style I was going for would look fine at my natural nail length she said yes. She continued filing than said next time do ombré since it was too short. I decided to add nail tips to enhance my own. When the tips were added I asked her to file them square . she began filing rounded more coffin like . I asked her during the whole process to maintain the square shape she said it's square . Once she applied the final coat she said" I think it's a little bit coffin, next time you come we will do square" this is absolutely unacceptable she knew I was dissatisfied and began to file them in the meantime I kept going over to my friend to see if she was experiencing the horror that I was . Actually she loved her pedicure it was amazing the male technician who performed her spa pedicure did an absolutely amazing job. Back to me at this point I am extremely upset about the way my nails turned out my nail tech pretty much gave up on me and me in her shes a horrible listener and clearly doesn't care about customer satisfaction. Another tech at this point looked at my nails and said she could fix them I disagreed, all this would lead too is to further shorten the nail extensions I would have to pay for which makes no sense why continue to file down the nail tips my natural nail length this defeats the purpose of putting on the tips in the first place I voiced my concern over and over only for the another women to ask me what I want . I cant believe after all this she finally ask me what I want I tell her I want them square and at the length if the tips before she filed off all my nails raw . She cant deliver that so I tell her to take it off there is no way im going to pay for a shit nail job that kept kept me in the salon for over 2 half hours . Another nail tech starts saying we do all our clients nails coffin a little because square does not look good how disgusting for you to tell a customer her preferences does not look good and im wasting everyones time . Than proceeds to rush off the nail tips by using a nail clipper to cut not only the acrylic nails but my natural nails as well which were at this point the length of the nail tipspowder soak filing with such brutality I can feel my finger and nails going numb and brittle . She doesn't even have the decency to clean off the mess she made of nail beds. During this entire process the inital nail tech starts to explain my ordeal to another client that is extremely unprofessional the other client tells me that well they should have listened to me in the beginning. And not done whatever they chose to do . The nail techs are clearly all aware of the situation. Instead of act like professionals they chose to snicker and make disgusting comments like high-school girls . I am absolutely disgusted that this is the behavior that is tolerated and accepted in a nail salon of nail techs well over the age of 21. Below I will insert pics of my nails and there fragile state . I cannot withstand hot water they are so sensitive and have been abused and mistreated it stands to reason that nail care is not something they stand by . After all of this they still charged me 10$ to leave with my nails unfinished bruised broken and abused bad condition till now my nails snag on everything and I cant do daily task since my nails are so weakened. read more

Used to be my favorite salon, yet as I keep going, each time is more disappointing than the last. I have given so many tries to keep loving this place, yet each visit proves I should look elsewhere. Vicky was always my go to for dip powder, and pedicure would always be anyone in the salon and I would be satisfied. Vicky left a while back, so I would just come in for pedicures. Now, it just seems well below standard. Seems that customer service and effort here is non-existent. The fact that I came in for a pedicure and I was finished with my pedicure, put my socks on, shoes, and paid- and this all was less than 15 minutes (pedicure included)! It's great if you're looking for a speedy service, but if you're looking to treat yourself and relax and get a decent job done, this would not be it! Usual pedicures would include at least some sort of massage and scrub! My massage lasted maybe a minute total, and scrub was only used on my heels to scrub my heels and even that was bare minimum. If you're looking for a place to come relax and treat yourself, it's sad to say this place will no longer be that salon. Yes, she might have been a new employee, but that doesn't validate the fact that received a sub par service. If an employee is employed by you, they should be educated and aware of standards and services set by your salon. If that is a new employee, it is the salons responsibility to guide them and teach them the services and expectations. Don't just have them perform a service they clearly are not familiar with- this would be the time that the employee would Shadow someone, or have someone supervise that employee to ensure they are providing proper service and expected service. That is no excuse for a sub par service because you failed to train your employees properly. read more

This place is so beautiful and clean and the service is absolutely amazing. The prices are very reasonable, it was $50 for a full acrylic set with gel color and $35 for a filling. They lasted three weeks and stayed fully in tact. Most recently I broke a nail (completely my fault) and they fixed it for free and didn't even make me wait. I would highly recommend nail berry!!! This is my set after two weeks read more

NAILBERRY - Nail Salons Near Me - Astoria, New York

Came in for an acrylic set & gel manicure. My experience in the salon was totally fine, until they wound up charging a 5% fee for paying with card, which is illegal in NY. The gel manicure completely peeled off on 3 of my nails less than 4 days later. The staff was very kind in repairing the paint, however in another three days, the nails were chipping again and one nail was beginning to pop off. I decided to soak the acrylics off at home using cotton balls and acetone. After a few minutes, the acrylic became completely gooey. After some research, I found out that this was because the salon was likely using MMA to bind the acrylic to the nail. This substance is illegal in NY and many other states due to the damage it can cause to your nails. This place is affordable but you definitely pay for what you get. Please be careful. read more

Tried out Nailberry for the first time and loved them. I wanted to get ombré nails for my wedding and Eva nailed it ;) I got the powder with tips because my nails were so short and the ombré came out great! She was patient and took her time. $65 for all of it! I am so happy I found this place, plus they had great music too! read more

Love love loveeeee this nail salon! Vicky & Cara are so talented in how they do the dip powder.

They are also taking great precautions for covid which I appreciate. Best nail salon in Astoria hands down! read more

So I'm a Gel first timer... gotta say I'm really happy with the results. For years I have been hesitant to try it but lately i have been hearing better things so I gave it a shot. The ladies were very nice and pleasant. I do wish the hand massage was a little longer because I rarely get mannies and it feels so good. I'm excited to go back and try it out again. read more

NAILBERRY - Gel Nail Polish - Nail Salons Near Me - Astoria, New York

I was in a rush, a couple of days before going to a wedding and hadn't gotten my nails done yet -- and no one had any vacancies for a mani pedi in the middle of the afternoon. They managed to squeeze me in at NAILBERRY and I have never been so pleased with a nail salon. I'm writing my review two months later -- to the day -- and I JUST had my nails redone. The acrylics applied by NAILBERRY lasted this entire time, no lifting, breaking, or cracking -- and I train dogs for a living, so I'm always getting some kind of messy, having my hands nibbled on, and cleaning all the time. Honestly, I wish I lived closer because I would be visiting NAILBERRY every other week if I could. read more

I gave this place one star for the cleanliness and another star because the nail technicians were very nice. However, when it comes to designs this is not the place to go. I showed my nail tech a picture of the design I wanted and she told me that she could do it. My nails came out absolutely horrible! She didn't look at the picture once to copy the design and then seemed like she was up set by the fact she had to do it. Anyways- being new to the area; I tried out this place however I will not be going back! read more

It's sad that this is such a Beautiful Nail salon but I encountered a nail technician who did a poor job. I went about two weeks ago for a Gel Pedicure. First of all I never saw that she took out a sterilized nail kit. The lady didn't really clean well through my nails either. As I was getting my nails done I was wondering why she was using an old nail filer rather than using the new disposable nail filer that came with a squared file. The lady who was doing my nails only used the squared one and used the old filer throughout the whole pedicure. When she finished applying the nail color, I asked her if she was going to scrub the bottom of my feet, she used the scrubber and I never saw that she changed the scrub peel for a new one. I saw the nail technician next to me change the peel for her customer. This really made me upset because I could've gotten fungus on my feet. The lady did a lousy job. I guess this is what happens when you cheat on your Nail Technician. I always go to a place named Morning Ritual Nails on 14st near Union Square. At it is by far the cleanest place in NYC. Trust me! read more

I've been trying to find a decently priced nail place near me and the one I've been going to was way too far un Alphabet City. I saw Nailberry while I was passing by on the train. Turns out it's only 2 blocks away from where I live! Prices are good and the staff is very nice. I made an appointment but you can also walk in. I paid $88 plus tip for a gel mani/ pedi and eyebrow wax. I think a gel mani is 35, gel pedi is 45, and eyebrows were 8. It's been a little over a week and my nails and toes still look like I got a fresh mani pedi. Going again in a couple weeks! read more

Well I'm basing my review on the previous times I've been here plus today. This location is 4 mins from my apartment and I usually have good luck when I get there or when I've made an appointment in the past. Today was not cool though, I would give my visit 2.5 stars. I called to make an appointment at 2:45 pm but was asked to come later because they were busy. After confirming my appointment for 4 pm I show up and am asked what would I like done. I let them know I'm there for a 4 pm appointment SNS powder manicure, but then I'm left waiting at the front desk for almost 10 mins. I'm then asked to sit down before another 5 mins pass and foils are added to remove my previous manicure. As I'm sitting with foils now on for 20 mins people are calling or walking in to make an appointment or ask when they should come back. In total my appointment didn't start until 35 mins after I arrived (4:40 pm). A bit of advice which I shared with the nice lady (Teddy) who did my nails, if you're going to ask customers to make an appointment, honor that appointment or be honest about the time of when a nail technician will be available for the appointment. I wouldn't have had an issue coming in on another day since I live around the area. What bothers me is that I agreed to come later, then I was ignored for about 10 mins even after I said I had an appointment, and then left waiting for 20 mins before someone sat down and started to help me. I value people's time and I would hope they would value mine too or just let me know that another day is better in case it is busy. At least then I would be able to make a decision on whether I want to wait 20-35 mins to be seen by someone. I want to continue supporting this nail salon because everyone is so nice and the salon is clean, but please don't make this a habit and honor your appointments. Don't be the nail salon that ignores or works over people who have appointments and squeezes in customers then rushes their services. read more

I don't ever do acrylic and for my bday I decided to try something new and it was a success! These lasted over a month and not one rhinestone fell! The service was very clean and quick.

I recently started going here. I went for tips and powder gel which was great. I didn't even make an appointment and they were able to take me as a walk in!! They did a really nice job and it lasted very long! Today I went for powder gel and pedicure. (I made the appointment this time bc it was a Friday evening and I assumed they would be busy) I had two different technicians and they were extremely nice and did a great job. The salon is very nicely put together. Big and roomy. They also do a good job of covid procedures. Gloves, masks, temperature checks, etc. I recommend nail berry!! read more

Ugh. I hate giving this nail salon a bad review. The staff is so nice! And I've had many great experiences. But I have to agree with another recent review - the quality has gone down. Their COVID regulations have relaxed and you'll encounter customers who don't wear masks. The cleaning of stations does not seem to happen. They're not going to take your temp or have you wash your hands. On a recent visit for SNS - after 8 weeks, I had grown my nails to a length I loved. I asked the person doing my nails to make them slightly shorter. They only heard the word shorter (I guess) and they cut them all shorter than they were 8 weeks ago. And three nails were filed at a weird angle. Not pretty. I sat next to a customer without a mask who vaped most of the time. I wish they had signage that let customers know they allow indoor vaping and that masks are optional. I suggested that they do so. Sigh. Sad to leave this place as a customer. My nails will grow back - not a big deal - but when I told staff members how unhappy I was during and after my SNS nail service they did not offer to fix the length with tips or anything. They let me leave unhappy. :( read more

I loved my experience! Service requested: gel manicure replacement My nail technician was so gentle and patient when taking off my old gel polish- she never once brought out a drill to file the polish off. She didn't damage my natural nails at all and followed my preferences diligently. I also had a broken nail that she repaired flawlessly. The place is really clean and cute, I love the lighting, I like the chairs, and I like the general vibe they're going for. I'll be back once these grow out! read more

Wanted a simple gel manicure. In matte. Nail tech grinded my nail bed down to the point it burned. Proceeded to finish, over cooked the gel to the point it rippled. Once "done" I stepped outside and noticed not just a terrible rippled job, there was nail polish on the side cuticles. I walked back in upset, to have another nail tech correct it. Once again grinding down my nail bed to such an uncomfortable point. 1:10 recommend. Will never go back. read more

Somehow my original review (2 stars) disappeared & just the update was left so I want to make sure that both are visible...the update below is in response to the managers reply. While it isn't word for word, here is the gist of the original: This review is for tonight (Nov. 6th) so please take it with a grain of salt. I have been to Nailberry approx 4 other times and have left happy. Tonight, I'm leaving VERY unhappy. My cuticles are gone. Not only are they gone, but 20 minutes after I left more than 1/2 of them (on my hands) are STILL bleeding. While my nail tech may have been new, it's just crazy to me that more than 1/2 of my cuticles were hacked the way that they were. I asked her to stop and asked someone else to come over so that they could see what was happening. They apologized and while I do believe it to be sincere, it just didn't help the situation at all. They "cleaned" my nails up...they wanted to paint them but I said no b/c of the open cuts...the pain of them as well as the potential of infection. They gave me a $20 giftcard to return, they wanted me to leave happy but honestly, I paid $90 total for 2 mani/pedis plus tip...I NEVER should have been charged for what was done to my hands. It wouldn't have fixed it it by any means, but I should have been refunded for the one mani/pedi for sure. I paid before they finished my nails...I have learned a lesson and will not make that mistake anywhere else again. If you decide to come here...have the owner (maybe it was the manager) do your nails...she was very sweet. Update: Thankful the manager responded to my original review so I'll add a star, maybe I was a little rough with my 2 stars so I apologize for that. However, while I appreciate their continued apology, I'm honestly very upset that I was forced to pay for the quality of the "service" I received. I never should have had to pay for what was done to my hands yesterday. Never. I should have immediately been offered a refund. I potentially would have given them another shot but the fact that I had to pay for having most of my cuticles chopped off and left bleeding...that left a very bad taste in my mouth and there are just too many other places I can go. read more

I have been going to this nail salon for a couple of years and they have been great. Unfortunately, this review is for a particular nail Tech, Tia. Tia was horrible and here is why: - For the pedicure, she did not put the blue dissolvable pedicure salt (comes with regular pedicure) - the water was cold for the pedicure - did not file my toe nails (I had to ask!!) - for my regular gel manicure, she wasn't going to soak my nails in the bowl!!! She sprayed my hands with a spray bottle and when I asked if she could soak my nails in the bowl, she looked at me like I was an idiot and said "this is similar." - When she put lotion on my hands, she rubbed it only on the top of my hand for LITERALLY 2 seconds. Overall, the work was sloppy and she does not care at all. DO NOT LET TIA DO YOUR NAILS. read more

I'm a regular here and let's just say I won't be coming back after today. As I was getting my nails done I noticed two employees finishing up with their two clients and normally towards the end of a manicure we get a warm towel to rub our hands. Both employees one after the other took the towels after rubbing the clients hands, proceeded to wipe the counters which I understand, but then decided to take the dirty towels and "sterilise" the tools used on those clients. And then put the tools into a "clean and sterilised" bag. I asked the lady who did my nails then if they sterilise here at all and she said "yes" and when I explained to her what I saw she was dumbfounded and turned her back. Absolutely disgusting, what's the point of having sterilisation machines if you don't use them! read more

My usual nail salon was closed today, so I popped into Nailberry for a pedicure. The space is beautifully decorated and very clean, with brand-new pedicure chairs and equipment. They gave me a complementary bottle of water, which was a nice touch. Kinu did an excellent job with my nails - very meticulous and unrushed, which I appreciate! I paid $17, which includes a grand-opening discount, so I imagine the regular price is $20-25, which is very reasonable for the level of service. I'll definitely consider coming back in the future. read more

NAILBERRY - Ombre SNS manicure by Anni - Nail Salons Near Me - Astoria, New York

In December I had asked if they did gel x extensions to which they said yes. However the service they provided me was in fact not gel x. They just placed tips on my fingers and did UV gel (when I asked for regular). I'm not well versed when it comes to nails but my usual technician at a different salon was unavailable and I was desperate. I continuously asked if they were doing gel x because I've done it but figured maybe they do it differently. Cut to a month later I went back and they told me I needed a fill in which I was confused by because I thought you'd just take off my gel polish and put a new one over it. Apparently they put acrylic all over my UV Gel nails. I didn't realize how messed up I got until my usual lady at a different salon came back today and told me what they did to me. This gunk is basically cemented on my nails and is very tough to get off. Be careful and make sure to ask questions if something feels wrong! read more
