My husband and I stopped in for some self-care and treated ourselves to manicures and nail art. The owner and staff were incredibly friendly, and even though the salon was packed on a Saturday afternoon, our wait was only about 20 minutes. We brought photos of the nail designs we wanted, and our nail technicians did an amazing job recreating them! We were both thrilled with how everything turned out. The salon was very clean, with a relaxing, calming atmosphere. Whether you feel like chatting or simply sitting back and enjoying the experience, you can make it your own. We had a great experience and are already planning to make this part of our biweekly self-care routine. It's a great way to spend time together while doing something for ourselves. We'll definitely be back! read more

I walked into this nail salon with hope in my heart, acrylics off my fingers, and a simple dream: remove the old nails, get a nice manicure, leave with my natural nails looking like they hadn't survived a tornado. Sadly... the tornado won. The acrylic removal began normally enough, until the technician started drilling my pinky nail with the enthusiasm of someone trying to dig for buried treasure. The drill got so hot I'm pretty sure I saw my ancestors. I very politely said, "Ow, that hurt." She very politely said, "I'll be gentler." And then she proceeded to drill like she was trying to start a campfire. Next came the shaping. I showed her a picture of what I wanted--simple, (trust see pics) cute, achievable. Twice she filed my nails, twice she asked, "Is this it?" and twice the answer was a solid, heartfelt, absolutely not. I explained it. I even used hand gestures. She looked at me with the calm serenity of someone who had chosen violence and ignoring instructions. But nothing prepared me for the manicure. Or should I say... "manicure." There was no warm bowl of sudsy water. No gentle soak. No heavenly lotion. No cuticle oil. Not even the traditional "let me pretend to massage your hands for five seconds." Instead, she did a quick file, a quick snip, and then asked--completely sincerely-- "Do you want a neck massage?" A neck massage. During a manicure. Ma'am, my hands were going through a crisis. The entire experience cost me $35, which feels appropriate only if the service included a surprise psychological plot twist--and in that case, wow, they delivered. In conclusion, the staff was friendly, but the service was like a comedy sketch no one warned me about. I left with confused nails, confused feelings, and a confused neck that did not, in fact, get a massage. I hope this review helps someone. And I hope someday my pinky nail forgives me. read more

Panda Nail & Spa - What I wanted. - Massage Near Me - Vestal, New York

Tell the guy to stop falling asleep and doing a shitty job! I wouldn't waste my money here.

I have had several pedicures here over the last 2 years. The salon is clean and staff are professional. I have never had an issue with the service. read more

I would not return to Panda nail & SPa My technician was rough, rude, and seemed rushed throughout the entire service. Customer service was disappointing from start to finish. The hot stone portion of the pedicure was also disappointing. The stones were barely warm, and the towels used during the service appeared dingy and worn rather than fresh and clean. What truly horrified me, however, was the lack of sanitation practices I witnessed. While cleaning my toes, the technician rinsed the tools in the dirty pedicure water that my feet had been soaking in and then returned those same tools to his clean workstation. Seeing instruments cleaned in used pedicure water and placed back with supposedly sanitized tools was extremely concerning and raised serious questions about hygiene and infection control. A pedicure should be a relaxing, clean, and safe experience. Unfortunately, this experience was none of those things. Due to the technician's behavior, the poor quality of the service, and the serious sanitation concerns, I will not be returning. read more

Bright side of this visit, they take walkins and it was zero wait The people working are friendly but not talkative. My entire manicure was basically silent I asked for a pink/white ombré dip manicure It was the worst manicure I've had The application looked correct but once finished it's mostly white with no pink I was not asked to check it, nor asked about shape I expect to wash my hands after filing etc. instead the cuticle oil and lotion were applied and rubbed in making my skin feel gritty There was dipping powered or activator dried to my skin all around my fingers. Prices are typical but based on result I would not go back read more

Everything was awesome! I came in from terrible nails and terrible service from nails r us. And my nail tech said her name was panda, she was incredible, kind, gentle, had great attention to detail. I got my acrylics off and she didn't use harsh chemicals and was so gentle and persistent. And I got a nice file and trim, hand oil, hot towel, and cuticle oil for $25 bucks and gave her a 20% tip. She was awesome and gave me advice for healthy nails. I will 1000% come back if I want color. And had Christian music in the background. Was quiet and pretty in there. Love love loved it, super recommend! read more

Panda Nail & Spa - My nails after having acrylics on for two weeks! She killed it! - Massage Near Me - Vestal, New York

I came in with my daughter and a friend for a pedicure. I was very disappointed because they were very rude and aggressive towards us. The vibe was rushed and they didn't have more than one other person there. Two out of the three people that took care of us acted like we're bothering them, did the job very rushed. Then one of them was on the phone for a while. They didn't speak English so I couldn't explain to them what I needed. The one that took care of me did not put a topcoat. read more

I have been coming here for a year and have always paid the same price and receive the same service. Today I was charged an extra $5 for having coffin shape which I have had for the last year. She had to do NO extra work as it's the shape I had already had, but I got charged $5 because it wasn't square? I then got french, which is always an extra $10, but instead of white today I decided on a different color and was charged and extra $10 for it not being white. None of this was told to me prior to the service and being I've been a client for a year I anticipated my total to be the same as it always was, but when my normally $55 service became $70 and the owner argued with me as if I haven't been a loyal client, that was really it for. She tried blaming me for not asking and insisted I was lying about only paying $55 for all my previous fills with gel. read more

I tried out Panda because I wanted a place that takes appointments and was a bit closer to where I live. The place I usually go to does a great job but it's always a long wait. I wanted dip, not too thick and a light pink color. They are VERY thick and you can still see flecks of the red I had on before around the edges. Also it feels like my nails are stuck to my skin on the sides and underneath. I have my nails done every 2 weeks so I know exactly what I want and I was very clear. It was a sloppy job and I'll never go back. I was excited about trying Panda but it was a complete waste of $60. One star is being too generous but it's the lowest rating available. Also worth noting, not very clean and the gospel music is not everyone's cup of tea. read more

Not super impressed with this place. I only came here because they're open very early(9am) and I had a lot of errands to run that day. So I wanted in and out quickly. I got a gel manicure (dip powder). It was like $36-ish dollars from what I remember. The dude legit took an hour and 45 minutes to do my nails. For some reason he put three coats of the powder on. I figured he would file them after. I didn't realize it when he was finished but now that I'm looking at my nails they're super thick and ghetto looking. They look awful. Also quick note. Not sure why the guy who was answering the phone & greeting people (owner??) was such a rude grump. He was super rude to one of the customers. She came in for a pedicure but her family member was running 5 min late and the guy gave her a hard time about it. Told her to call the lady and make sure she will be here soon because they are VERY BOOKED. Uuhhh kayyy?! They will not get my business next time I want a mani. I will not be back. Sorry guys. Respect your customers. read more

Update because this salon and the nail technicians deserve it! I've come here about 5 times for various services in the last 7 months and I've never had a poor experience. Today, I went in for a regular manicure and pedicure. Shout out to Susan who did both! She was thorough, gentle, and kind. I accidentally messed my pinky toe up on the way out of the chair and she politely said it's ok and fixed it. I've never been to such a clean, organized salon with the most precise techs. Don't let the bad reviews scare you away, this place is the BEST! read more

The salon is organized, and the employees that did my nails were pretty detailed for my uv gel fill. However, I was told they didn't have time to do my nails even though I had made an appointment. I appreciate that they still managed to squeeze me in, but my nail tech made the experience very disappointing. I asked for french tip and one of the only times I asked her to fix something, she rolled her eyes at me and got visibly annoyed--I had asked her if she could fill in an area with more polish that was sparse. I could tell she was rushing towards the end to get the next clients in, and she ended up cutting my cuticle pretty bad and left top coat wet and smudged. The pricing here also confuses me--they charged me an additional $10 for my fill because some gel was thinner in areas. I had asked for a colored french tip instead of white and was also told that was an additional $20. I was really confused by that since switching from white to another color takes the same effort, and my friend who got colored french tip was not quoted this price. Disappointed by my experience here and I will not be back. read more

Great job on my manicure and pedicure . Definitely recommend this place. I didn't have to wait either just walked right in

I will never visit another nail place. I have been coming here for the last year or so and have worked with Lin & Kimmy. They are both SO detailed oriented and meticulous. They always give me exactly what I want. I do Gel on my toes as well as my fingers. I never worry about chipping. This time I did a Halloween design and Lin spent over 2 hours with me. Words can't even express how amazing they are here. Do yourself a favor and come see for yourself. read more

Very nice, clean and sterile. Lady who did me took long time. She took polish off and redid so she must not have liked it at first. She did a good massage while doing pedicure. Felt bad though a lady had her 3 kids running around and at end they color all over couch so some distraction with several employees with this. It's nice and bright in here. They do charge 4 percent for credit cards. Usually at nail salons they let you just sit and dry. The lady did that and then came to spray a fast drying thing. When she lifted my toes to do this on my one foot (a few toes are curled on this foot) my polish came off right on the sandal. I have the same feet and this has never happened at another salon. THe manager came over and tried to clean my sandal and told me to get special sandals because my toes curled. Umm don't think so I will just go back to my other one. Also the next day my big toe is not smooth its all rough on it so in the end I had to lower this to a three star. read more

Staff was rude and unwelcoming. Didn't listen to what I wanted and when I tried to speak up they just ignored me and my friend. The nail tech rushed me as I chose my color then snatched the book away from me. I told her that I wanted just a simple French acrylic, showing her photos, but she refused to listen to me multiple times and instead just pained my whole nail. I paid for almond shape but she did some chunky oval that I asked her to change which she also just ignored. Would 110% not recommend. read more

I was in Binghamton for a dentist appointment and decided to look for somewhere to get my nails done. I chose Panda because who doesn't love Pandas? And the reviews were good. Well, they did not disappoint! I was a walk in and when I got there they were super busy so I went and got a bite to eat and came back and got right in. My nail tech was Joy and she did an amazing job, I began with the rose pedicure -which was $20 less than they charge at most places where I live. Joy did an awesome job, she paid close attention to detail, grooming each nail and made my feet feel soft and luxurious. The leg and foot massage that came with it was incredibly relaxing & between that & the wonderful massage chair I almost drifted off to sleep! Joy also used the hot stone which felt great. After I decided to get a manicure with my real nails. I hadn't done my cuticles in awhile and joy cleaned them up really well and gave me a nice shape! Then I had my eyebrows waxed by the lovely woman who owns the business. Unfortunately, I didn't catch her name. She really took her time and gave me a really nice shape! We talked, joked, and laughed the whole time. I really felt welcomed like I was a long time customer even though it was my first time. Everything is super clean and spotless including the bathroom, and the decor is relaxing and nice. The prices are great and everyone who works there is super friendly and sweet. I was given a cute little panda on a keychain as a gift as well as a mini nail kit. When my boyfriend came to pick me up they gave him a panda too! I absolutely loved my experience there and I highly recommend! I will definitely be back when I'm out that way again! read more

This is a 5 star business. Very professional, clean and hard working staff. I travel across the USA quite often and am gone from home for months. My hubby calls me a nail junky and I'm okay with that. I use Yelp to find my next fill and pedi and I must say this one was an amazing find. A little more cost wise but definitely worth every penny. read more

Nice clean place!! The wash basin had disposable liners! I chose the Lavender Spa pedicure and was not disappointed. I didn't get the name of the gentleman who did my treatment but he was very meticulous and showed a sincere concern in making this an awesome experience! I had several nail issues and he paid close attention to each of them. He was very professional and attentive. He even gave me a mini back massage while I waited for my nails to dry. They speak very little English but the service you get surpasses this minor detail. They take credit cards but if you pay in cash you don't pay any card service fee. I would not hesitate to go again or refer this place to fiends! I also went in the middle of the week at 10am and there was no waiting!!!! Try them out!!! read more

I Love Panda nail & Spa...Panda(she's done my nails the last few times) does a phenomenal job with nails. I moved from California and was looking for a new place that met my standards, I have always been very picky about my nails. I tried Panda nails because of the reviews and I'm glad I did. The staff is very friendly and greet you as soon as you walk through the door. I have found my new nail salon and won't go anywhere else. Thank you Panda my nails look amazing. I'm in love with them. read more

Very nice place and my nails look beautiful. Panda and the rest of the staff are very meticulous. I would highly recommend. OK the second time I went to visit PANDA I apparently pissed her off - she had my middle fingernail going sideways - she says thats the way my nail goes...oh from the last appointment all of a sudden my nail grows sideways? I don't think so. I was very disappointed in her attitude - much different than the first time I went.. for $50???? I don't think so read more
