Been going to Oh My Nails! for years and they're endlessly, always amazing! Simple short nails for a work event or artsy colorful madness based on a painting- everyone there is talented and able to do it all. The shop is small and chill, welcoming and always fun to be in. I can't say enough good things
Soooo, since I'm back and forth from the DMV, South Jersey/Philadelphia and NYC, I decided that I needed to have a nail technician in each area to make my nails well manicured and appealing. And where else do you look other than YELP to get the scoop on hot nails salons downtown/FiDi/Chinatown/Village... Through my search I stumbled upon Oh, My Nail! Yeah! The shop is small and technicians are friendly and do real craftsmanship & artistry in the nail game. Alice was my technician. Quiet with a kind demeanor, she introduced me to Calgel, which I had never heard of. I did some reading on Calgel which is reportedly less toxic, last for several weeks and come to find out Oh MyNaIls is the go to nail salon for this nail enhancement in NYC. Who knew, clearly not me. I found Alice to be meticulous and very detailed oriented. She applied the polish with a small brush and very thinly so the nail application looked quite natural and a very "polished" look. No pun intended. I was extremely pleased and plan to make this my go to nail salon while in NYC. So far I have been twice and each time extremely pleased. I highly recommend the nail salon as well as Alice as she does an excellent manicure.
Hello! Please take this review with a grain of salt bc everyone's experiences are different. I had come to this place for a little bit.... status post the pandemic. My favorite nail salon has closed and I have been hopping around some nail salons in the area to see which one would take care of me the best. I came here shortly after having a great manicure that lasted 4 weeks long. This time I requested the trendy Hailey Bieber chrome nails. I came into the salon Wednesday before my Thursday-Friday shift as a healthcare worker. The next morning around 10am I noticed at my computer, that my nails started chipping. But not one but 4! I was furious because these manicures aren't cheap I paid $120. I reached out to them letting them know what happened and they kindly asked me to stop by the salon at 7:30pm after my 12 hour shift. Unfortunately it was my fault of not getting out of work on time and I made it to the salon at 7:40pm which was already closed (online says 8pm). I was sad but they were nice enough to have me come late that following day (in which I speeded back from bk into the city). I made it and was educated how I needed the "extra strong top coat for the chrome nails cause they chip easily." I told myself fine spend the extra ten dollars because I spent already $120 dollars. The next day at home. The "extra strength" nails polish chipped and continued to collect dirt. I'm furious. How come everyone at my job has nice Hailey Bieber nails that don't chip and mine do? I'm sorry to say I will not be coming back here. I feel like I got robbed, I like to spend money where I know quality is there. This place, it's not it. I wished they could make it right but instead they schemed me out of and extra $10 bucks and tip!
It could have been my nail tech, but I was really unimpressed. One of the polishes "pooled" and she didn't bother fixing it. It just wasn't very detailed work. And this is after I had her redo some of the nails bc they looked so bad. The photos show the issues- they were taken 2 weeks later, so nails have grown out.
6 Month Update: I still highly reccommend this place! I especially reccommend Serena! She is a professional and an artist. Whatever pictures you bring in Serena will make it happen. She is a perfectionist in the nest of ways and I only go to her. She has done everything from mini monet paintings, to hand painted watercolor flowers! Some might view her prices as expensive, but you get what you pay for in quality of service and skill of the nail tech. I have never ever been even the tiniest bit disappointed by Serena's work.
In LOVE with my nails! Truly the place to go for any cool designs you see on ig and would like to replicate for yourself. Alice did an amazing job and was incredibly meticulous through and through, from nail shaping to ensuring the top coat was slick and coated every nail evenly. Took about 1hr 15-20min including gel removal. Note: The shop is very small, so try to book in advance. They keep it very tidy and wipe down the station before each client! Tip: Try to pick inspiration photos that are clear and detailed (some photos have the thumb folded) because they will be actively referencing it throughout the session.
Called same day, early and made an afternoon appointment. Small, quaint shop. Sat next to the head nail stylist...not Sure if she is the owner or just runs the place or just does the best designs there but she had super cute nails and was solving all the booking issues of the day. The reason I'm not sure is bc she didn't bother to greet me or thank me for my visit and showed no owner hospitality. So I broke a Nail while traveling and wanted to try a new place in NYC knowing that my regular place here would be full, for same day. I had gel polish on and needed that removed, and wanted a new gel mani with some current designs but nothing complicated. I chose to go with 6 nails with design; the designs were simple (checkerboard and leopard print). The designs could have been better executed, especially the leopard print. Doesn't look like leopard. The actual mani was lacking, barely cut cuticles, no massage. Final price? $127. Yes, she has a "celeb" following if you go on IG but who doesn't? not worth it. They are fairly quick, speed-wise and not too chatty so that's a plus but wildly overpriced. And yes, that is blood on the pinky cuticle from being cut.
Harumi it's the BEST always great design on my nails and they last forever. I don't go anywhere else but this place. I highly recommend Oh My Nails!
As a longtime customer, I can say with confidence Oh My Nails! is one of the best salons in NYC. Momo, the owner, and her staff are professional nail artist who create beautiful nail art that last 3+ weeks plus that never disappoint in their beauty and longevity. Their service has never left me wanting more, and they always listen to any concerns I have regarding my requests to make sure I never leave unsatisfied. Don't hesitate to call and book an appointment for the most incredible manicure you've ever had.
I use to go here regularly and I loved my nails. Then I stopped getting my nails done for my own reasons. Last week I got my nails done. Within a few days it chipped. Calgel is supposed to last up to 21 days. Additionally, when I got my nails done the woman cut my cuticles so close I bled on one finger and two others were very sore and developed scabs days later. I called to fix my chipped nail. Whomever I spoke to I made it clear I didn't want the person who originally did my nails because I had a bad experience. The person on the phone didn't even ask me why I had a bad experience, but whatever I let it go. I went tonight to fix my nail and it was the owner who did it for me. I thanked her for being willing to fix my nail and she says, "I have been waiting for you since 2pm with nothing to do." I apologized, and she didn't respond, but then I realized I had no reason to apologize. I made my appointment and I was on time, I didn't ask her to arrive at 2pm to "wait for me" it was rude of her to say that. I didn't want to be there either. I came from work after a long day to fix an error her employee made. Following this, there was discussion about hand models and some of the stuff they do to protect their hands and I asked a question about what do foot models do and she says, "they sit in wheelchairs--cos they can't walk." I'm personally not physically disabled, but I found the comment inappropriate and ableist. I know that may not have been her intention, but it was a micro-aggressive comment and shouldn't be said--joking or not. Between that and the comment about "waiting" for me I prefer not to return. Other than the woman I saw last week they do good nails and at an affordable rate for Calgel, but I want to feel like I'm in an emotionally safe place especially when I'm pampering myself and unfortunately the owner didn't provide that for me.
This review is long overdue! I have been getting my nails done by Momo for over a year. There has never been a time where I have not been happy with her work. I am so picky when it comes to my nails and am someone who knows exactly what I want but don't always know how to articulate it lol. Momo is always patient with me. I have had my nails done by several different artists in the city and I have never had anyone put so much care into it. She does an amazing job at shaping and is a truly versatile artist that can do everything from minimal designs to more realistic work. Beyond this, through the time I have been seeing her my nails have grown so much and are so strong. Those pics are my natural nails! I highly recommend her if you can get an appointment lol.
My go to nail salon for gel nails. The salon is safe, clean and everyone that works there is courteous and patient. It always takes me awhile to decide which color or design I want and I never feel rushed like I have at other salons. I always receive compliments on my nails and the gel lasts for weeks. I am glad I found this hidden gem and I highly recommend their services.
The technicians are amazingly talented and very very funny. I appreciated how much care and detail was put into my nails, and their patience in explaining gel extensions to me as it was my first time getting them. I love my nails - though $150 is a bit pricey, the service and quality is outstanding

I wanted to write this review to say how amazing Oh My Nails is! I have been coming here every 3 weeks for the last 8 years. The salon is small and owned by Momo, an incredible artist and funny, kind person. She hires carefully to make sure that clients always have a good experience - and I always have, everyone here is talented and expert at what they do (shoutout to Lydia and Shinne!). What I love and keeps me coming back are first, that they prioritize health of your natural nails - they use the best quality products and are careful with removal to make sure your nails are not damaged by the gel. Second, they take the time to consult with you on what you want based on any photos or ideas you have. They have a huge library of gel colors, glitter, chrome, cateye, etc. and tons of crystals and 3d add ons to choose from. The prices are very reasonable for the quality of work you receive, and with a little bit of care, my manicures always last sometimes for up to 5 weeks if I can't make it to my usual appointment. Can't recommend this place enough! read more

Tried this place for the first time and could not have been happier. My gel extensions look flawless and even though the tips I walked in with took forever to remove they were so nice. It was my first time doing gel extensions and I love how natural they look. They also helped me decide what colour to get and it lols amazing. Will definitely go back read more

These girls are talented but wayyyyy OVER PRICED! $190 for a simple design and apres extensions. Go here if you truly have an emergency but there are plenty of other places that do this quality work for much less. Over the phone you are told a price let's say $160 and once you come in don't be surprised if your nails are $190 because of "length" . Not worth it! read more
I knew about this place because my friend would always post her nails on IG, and each time, they always look sooooo amazing. So I decided to book an appointment with them. Momo did my nails and had asked if she could do transfer foils on my nails. She was honest with me and told me that they don't last very long and suggested another option. I wanted almond shaped nails, but since my nails were not long enough, she did what she could. I am very happy with the result. She did such a great job that I can't wait to go back and try a different design. This time, I'm going to keep my nails long so I can get that almond shape that I want. Place is def pricey, but if you're the type to get your nails done often, this is the place to go. I've been getting my nails done for yearsssss and overtime it weakened my nails. The type of polish she uses feels very light. I definitely recommend this place. read more

My nails look lumpy, I have been here 3 times and the first two times were okay but too expensive for a clear gel overlay. The last time I had to sit with a different nail tech from my last two appointments and she was not good. Do not book with Gianni, I told her multiple times that my nails were uneven and she could not get it right. I got a clear fill in and she charged me $125, I will never go back. This place is not worth the travel and will never see me again! I reached out to see if I could speak with a manager and no one has responded to me so that proves this is not a good business to deal with. They lost a good consistent client! read more

I have never had nails this bad before in my whole life and I've been getting my nails done since age 7. This place was just no where near an upscale salon. This place was terrible. I'm so disappointed as this place was recommended to me and they are just not ok. Nail process I went in to do gel extensions and I had never done just the gel extensions meaning no plastic tip involved. So I was excited and nervous. I wanted long coffin nails and I provided a picture and the women doing my nails said to me she can't make them as long as the picture but she can make them close to it. She said just a bit shorter then the picture. And I was ok with that so as she start the process (which is pretty darn long) she finishes forming the nails and they look terrible absolutely disgusting, looked like I was going to pay 20 dollars not 100. I just tried to be ok with it. But after she shaped them I lost it. Long story short she took them off and I left. Word of advice AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COST!! Over priced for their work because they are just terrible! Better salons out there people! Trust me for the same price you can get a way better job done. Try Bisou nails. I promise you won't regret that! read more

I'm new to Calgel nails and I assumed when you advertise it, it means you know how to apply it. I came here the first time and left over the moon happy! It was exactly what I asked for and it lasted 4 weeks!!! I started to become tired of it, but dang if not for the growth you would have thought I got it done today! I had to go elsewhere the second time due to time and location. The second place were so bad, it looked like pressed on nails... I just returned yesterday to Oh My Nails and I'm in heaven again! They took good care of me! It was obvious my last work was badly done (by another nail place) but the person doing my nails remained professional and didn't comment. Her comment comes out in her work, my beds were so smooth I now know that other place didn't know what they were doing! Some say it's pricey... it's 50 for a base color and this lasts for 4+weeks, you're dealing with pros...so looking like you've just walked out and gotten your nails done for 4 weeks straight is a bargain to 10-12dollars weekly after chipped nails. They do appointments only and for a reason! I did not feel rushed, I wished I remembered her name, but I think you're lucky with whoever you get. I wasn't the girl who got her nails done regularly (once a year...), but Oh My Nails will be a regularly thing for me now on! UPDATE: the person who did my nails her name is Lhamo read more

I have been coming to Oh My Nails! since they were in the other location and honestly it's become a very special place. The owner is cute, sassy and beyond talented. She had a very high bar when it comes to hiring other technicians so you can be sure anyone you get will do an amazing job. Disclaimer: Momo loves Ruinart Rosé Champagne so that might score you some extra points. Maybe. read more

I used to come here all the time like 2 years ago for calgel / nail art. They always did a good job and the place was always clean and neat. I went back this past weekend and showed a picture of the nail art I wanted. First of all, the salon itself looks a lot more run down and crowded with the employees things / bags everywhere. It wasn't a great atmosphere and not the cute place it used to be. Also, maybe I should have thought to make an appointment but I just walked in and they basically rushed me and told me that they had all these appointments coming in and that they could start doing my manicure as a solid calgel color and would see if they had time to do art. I also came in with SNS powder gel on and they made a big deal about removing it since they don't do powder there and charged me $30 for removal (calgel removal is $10). Towards the end of the manicure it became clear that they weren't going to do the nail art, but they never told me that specifically. Because of my SNS removal, the solid color manicure cost almost $100 with tip. Fast forward to 3 days later, the tips of my nails are already peeling up and I have chips in my nails. I pay for SNS because it's supposed to last like 20 days. I expect a $100 price tag if I get nail art, but they charged me so much for removal. I usually peel my nails myself because I despise the removal fees but I've been trying to take better care of my nails so decided to let the professionals do it. Unfortunately I don't think I'll be coming back here even though it is so conveniently located to my apartment. There are other places that do calgel nail art where I've had better experiences. I'm going to have to go get another manicure less than a week after this one since this one turned out so terribly. UPDATE: Day 4 and my nails that were lifting at the tips are totally chipped. $100 not well spent. read more

My nail tech Alice was very sweet and detail oriented. It was my first time here and she was very helpful. I love the results. She was also very gentle with my nails. Calgel mani was $50 + tax and tips. I paid an extra $10 for two nail designs. I did not put 5 stars because i want to wait and see how long my nails will last. read more

So let's start off by saying this place is very pricey I got nail extensions for 100 bucks if I wanted them longer it would've cost me 160 bucks with a design an additional 60 more bucks and totally my fault for not asking about prices before I sat down in the chair but besides all that let's put that aside my experience at oh my nails was very nice and I didn't quite understand the difference between acrylic nails and nail extensions, and let me say I absolutely love these nail extensions they feel like my real nails and the process was very nice and I feel that this will not break my nails like the acrylic does now I did ask some questions about filling and things like that and to get a filling for these extensions is 70 bucks and if my nail grows and I get a filling it's going to cost more so to maintain these things are gonna cost a little bit more than the acrylic I probably will be back and the service was nice the young lady that did my nails was very nice and I had to give her a $10 tip because she literally did an excellent job on my nails!!! They don't do pedicures but they did tell me they do do lashes but I do have somewhere else that I go for lashes but overall it was a very nice experience very pricey read more
