The Nail Social can be found inside a strip mall, between A Corner Cafe (which surprisingly is not…read moreon a corner, lol) and Yin Ji Chang Fen with plenty of parking available. Since my family and I were staying in Markham during our last vacation, I wanted to find a nail salon in the city, which ended up leading me here (which I found on Yelp). There wasn't any information about price though on this Yelp page but am happy to add these photos of the pricing that I took when I arrived. I initially had made an appointment for Tuesday, around 2 pm the day before. However, my lunch with one of my aunts and uncles went longer than expected and so I had to call to cancel and ask if I could change the time to a later time. The girl on the phone was so kind and told me because I wasn't exactly sure what time I would be available to have my nails done, she suggested to call before coming in just so I would not have to wait if I was to do a walk in. So later that day, I called prior and the girl told me to come in, so I walked in around 4:55 pm and waited a little over 10 minutes before being asked to take a seat by an employee named Joey. I wanted to get gel nails, which is different from shellac nails for those that may confuse the two (especially since sometimes nail salons will use both words interchangeably but they are not the same). Shellac nails are kind of like a semi- permanent polish, which doesn't last as long (and also is cheaper than gel nails). But gel nails are a semi- permanent gel nail, which does last a few weeks longer. Gel nails cost $75 for a new set. I also wanted a design (I almost always get a design with my nails, which does cost extra but I don't mind), which I had a photo on my phone to show Joey. I told her what design I wanted for my ring finger and middle finger and the same on the other hand (so total of 4 nails that would have design). Joey told me that cost would be $75, in which she didn't charge me extra for design (so I made sure to tip her higher because of it). I liked that Joey took a photo of the design I had in mind with her camera phone so that she could refer to it on her own phone while she was painting my nails. Joey definitely is very talented and I just loved the design she had, as I picked an ice cream cone with sprinkles. She also helped me to find the right colors that I wanted (I wasn't looking for the exact shade and am pretty flexible). I really loved the way the design and the pink color I picked for the rest of my nails, as it really went with the ice cream theme. Although Joey told me that my nails would last 4 weeks, my nails lasted beyond that (and never chipped or lifted. Being in health care, I don't baby my hands and I also wash them constantly, honestly these were probably the best nails I have ever had done). The only reason I took them off was because it really need a fill since my nails had grown over. Joey told me that she had not done an ice cream cone before and she was also happy with her results too. Now this is my first time getting my nails done in Canada and am not sure if it is not customary to get a hand massage and lotion on your hands after a manicure or not. I didn't get one after this manicure but have always had it done with the nail salons in California and also in Hawaii where I have gotten my nails done. Not a big deal, but I wished I had brought my own lotion to put on since my hands were dry. But overall, I am very happy with my experience and would come back the next time I visit Markham in the future. Please note that they do accept credit card but there is a credit card fee. I ended up paying cash.

I have to say that the pictures didn't match how it looked in person. The place was just, dirty. The floors, everything looks old and worn out. I still decided to give them a try. The surround area was just messy, dirty floors, washroom, hair on the floor, garbage on the floor, dusty. It was a complete turn off. The service was ok, the message was just random, the pedicure was better than the manicure. The manicure was rushed, uneven polish. The manicure polish did chip after one day. The price for the pedicure was spa pedicure was $45 and manicure was $27. The price was ok, but quality and cleanliness was just not up to par! I'm search for a nice salon continues...

Terrible Service - Stay Far Away This is one of the worst…read morenail salons I've ever been to. Unless you're spending a lot of money, they don't value you as a customer. If you say you're unhappy with something, they will literally ban your email so you can't book online forcing you to call in, and then no one wants to help. That's exactly what happened to me. Simon did my nails. I chose a polish but didn't like how it looked after it was applied. I politely asked him to change it, and he charged me $20 for the polish change which I paid without complaint. But afterward, I discovered my email had been blocked from booking. That's their idea of "customer service." The atmosphere is just as bad. The staff constantly speak in their language while staring at customers, making it obvious they're gossiping. I even saw this happen to another customer who simply asked her nail tech to fix something. They are rude, dismissive, and act like they're doing you a favor just by working on your nails. Extremely unprofessional. Overall, this salon is disrespectful, shady, and clearly does not care about its customers. There are plenty of better salons in Markham -- save your time and your money, Stay far away!

As Pumpkin Spice Latte season descends upon us, my pH level rises closer to 14, making me feel more…read morebasic than ever. And what goes perfectly with an infinity scarf and a messy top bun? Nails that are on fleek, of course. I'm kidding, I swear I'm not that basic. I don't even own Uggs. And I've only gotten my nails done 3x in my lifetime. 2 of those times were at Nailed It Studios though so I feel it's time to leave them a review. Nailed It Studios is a tiny, appointment-only, cash-only, 3-woman shop, though I think they're hiring more nail techs to keep up with their insane demand. They're located in the weirdly isolated Langham Square mall on Kennedy but are thriving thanks to their impressive Instagram feed and what I'm guessing is a lot of referrals. When your nails last more than a month without chipping/lifting, you're bound to get questions on where you got them done. I got my nails done by Maggie, then Margie. Maggie is extremely sweet but was a little rough when filing one of my fingers. It didn't hurt per say, but it wasn't comfortable, and I left with a bit of swelling that lasted for 2 days. Same thing happened to my friend. That was literally the only flaw though, as my nails survived for the 6 weeks afterwards, with no lifting or dulling. My second time with Margie was even better. I'm a bad customer because I fidget and tend to stiffen up my hands a lot, due to them being perched in permanent typing position. She was patient with me and the nails turned out perfectly, no discomfort at all. That's why she's the boss. Her marble designs are legendary. Bookings are done conveniently on Whatsapp and first timers need to drop a $20 deposit, in person or through e-transfer. I love this. It ensures I have a transcript of my bookings and I get to ask questions and get quotes on designs I find on Pinterest. They take bookings one month in advance. Margie runs the Whatsapp and she's very responsive. Pricing is extremely fair. They only use gel and it starts at $30. $2/nail for matte, $5 for special polishes, and $6-$12+ for intricate designs. $10 to remove polish. Prices are transparent, reasonable, and you pay for quality stuff. They also give a stamp card which gives you 20% off after your 10th visit. As a woman who appreciates nice nails, grande lattes, and a good pun, Nailed It is the perfect place for me to pumpkin spice up my life and my Instagram feed. Next time you need a picture of a perfectly manicured hand curled around a Starbucks cup, you'll know who to Whatsapp. #NailedIt #Blessed (93/100) - 2017

Came here to get my nails done on a whim…read more The nail tech was nice in the beginning, as she was alone by herself. When her other co worker came in, she sat right next to us and they started having a whole conversation in mandarin with each other. Her attention to detail is not the best, and when I was told to wash my hands, I noticed one finger had a chip already, and asked her very politely if she can fix that one corner; in mandarin she said I was meddlesome, which is pretty much the same saying in Cantonese, as she proceeded to fix my nail. Maybe if she had paid more attention to her own work and stopped talking and getting distracted with her co worker, then she wouldn't have done such a sloppy job. Now I understand why the other 3-4 nails salons on the same floor were busy, except for this one. Won't be back.

I came here a month ago and made a very last minute appointment (around 9 am for an appointment at 11am). The service I did was Gel nails + Extensions + 2 Designs for $60. These were the things that I've noted and remembered: PROS - ladies that were servicing were really nice and courteous - took in last minute appointments - service was done professionally - no pain from any of the services - usually I experience some pain with nail buffering and the UV light heating, I didn't experience that here - despite the fact that the esthetician didn't know how to do the "marble effect" she attempted it until it was up to what I wanted - the gradient of the white was used with a professional spray to have a really flawless effect, not hand drawn so I appreciated that - they provided a complimentary hand and arm massage along and applied lotion at the end CONS - the lasted me three weeks vs the usual four weeks that I get, but I do understand, I'm not exactly the most delicate with my nails and hands - one of the esthetician was new at the job so she was much slower, but quality wasn't compromised - pricing maybe a little more than your typical nail salons - salon looks a little run down, more humbling decor Overall, this was a really nice experience, definitely, if you have time, go to this place, they do offer really good quality customer service and will get the job to the best of their abilities.

I went on June 18, 2026, and got the worst pedicure of my life. The technician actually poked me on my left toe with his fingernail and it still felt sore the next morning. He also didn't use gloves and was using his own long pointy fingernails instead of proper tools to clean around my nails. They didn't even ask me what I had booked my appointment for. They just assigned a person who didn't speak English, don't know how to do a proper pedicure, did the worst job ever, never asked me if I was satisfied until I brought up my concerns while paying out. 'Won't be returning to this place unless Lily comes back or there is new management who actually cares about the people who come here. There might be a few good people here but the majority of them are unprofessional and just there to get people in and out. They also took down my Google review.

I booked a pedicure and gel manicure. During the pedicure, the technician skipped several parts of the service, including the dead skin removal, scrub, and massage. Instead, he wrapped my feet in a warm towel and immediately started painting my toenails. When I asked why those steps were skipped, I was told, "Your feet don't need it." That response was surprising, considering those treatments are part of the service I paid for. What made it even more confusing was that after painting my toenails, I was told the dead skin removal would be done once the polish dried. I've never experienced a pedicure being performed in that order before. Unfortunately, the manicure wasn't any better. My cuticles looked poorly trimmed, the nail shaping was uneven with sharp edges, and despite asking multiple times for corrections, the final result still looked unfinished. I even asked if the technician was new, and he laughed and said he had been working there for quite some time. Overall, it felt like a waste of money, time, and what was once an enjoyable experience. It's disappointing to see the quality of service decline so drastically at a place I've trusted and visited for years. - - - - - - - - Second visit - came again yesterday.

There were also some fruit flies flying around but not bad. The pedicure experience itself was too quick. I didnt get the foot massage im used to. Which was quite disappointing. The polish applications required too many touchups.. and also cleaning off smudges on the side and little booboos on the skin. But done pretty nicely. The entire pedicure took about 27mins not including drying time. Will return mostly only if i am in a rush or too lazy to drive further.
