There's a reason this place is cheap. And it's not a good cheap. I came in on a Friday evening for a basic mani pedi at 6:45pm (they close at 8pm) and was the sole person. They insisted that they do my manicure while in the pedicure chair. Not sure about you, but twisting your whole body over so your both your hands are on one side of the chair do not exactly make for an enjoyable pedicure. The manicurist spent 30 seconds rubbing lotion on my hands and the manicure she gave was streaky beyond belief. This is the second time I have tried this spot since it is around the corner from me & while I got a basic pedicure the last time which was fine, this experience sealed the deal for me to bring my money elsewhere. I would rather spend $60+ for better quality and service compared to the $53 ($45 basic mani pedi + tip) I spent here for a manicure I'm already taking off 2 days later. Don't waste your time or money at this place. read more

i just came from this place very upset. the attention is the worst, the wax service also is too bad. I had a wax service and I have to keep checking and asking to do it again because it was not good. the treat was too rough also with my face, it was like the wax was expensive and didn't want to waste. and in the end basically they made me left tip. don't recommend to anybody. read more

I come here regularly for mani-pedis. This salon is your best value. Each tech I've worked with has been lovely. While there aren't tons of bells and whistles- it's solid. I don't need candy or hot tea while getting my nails done. I don't want to talk, and I want crappy daytime tv on. Judge Judy? Yes. Rachael Ray? Ok then. I've never had a bad experience here. My gel manicures have always lasted a week plus (which is above average for me), and pedicures stay stunning for a month plus. Regular manicures last a week if I don't pick at my nails. Reasonably priced and a really great go-to nail salon. read more

I'm not happy with the horrible customer service simply because before I could even be served they asked me to pay and tip which was crazy. I would have stayed quiet, but I realize they didn't do the same with another customer that came in shortly after. We both received pedicures, and they allowed her jet to be on and properly did her service. Unfortunately on my end the bottom of my foot was not scrub at all. My water was just a little water, not even enough to cover the jet. Not to mention they never turned on my jet at all. Needless to say, I will never go back there again. *HIGHLY DON'T RECOMMEND* Paid $125 and it wasn't worth a penny. read more

I have been frequenting Pink Nails for about two months now. Each time I have gone, I have scheduled an appointment over the phone with a day or two of notice. Overall, the quality of the manicures and pedicures I have received has been great and the overall customer service and scheduling leave some room for improvement. I feel the pricing is very fair and consistent with the standard going rates for gel manicures, and on the cheaper end for pedicures. My first experience was lacking a bit on the customer service side. I had an appointment for myself and a friend, and one of us was able to get our manicure immediately and the other had to wait 30 minutes before being seen. This felt strange since we did make appointments. My second visit was with two friends, we had all planned to do pedicures. One of us scheduled a gel manicure too. My friends were both finished with their pedicures (and the following one manicure) before my pedicure was finished. The timing was strange. While we were there, another group of three walked in stating they had called ahead. There was not someone able to help them immediately, and they seemed very frustrated by that. They expressed that they were not told there would be a wait over the phone, so I can understand the frustration there. My third and most recent visit was for a gel manicure and regular pedicure on a Friday at lunch time. I had made an appointment in advance, and this time I was taken promptly. My nails are on the weaker side, so they often chip and break, even with gel polish on top. My gel manicures from Pink Nails have held up for at least two weeks before beginning to chip. I'm happy with the quality and price point and will continue to return to Pink Nails. read more

Worst manicure I've gotten in years... left with sticky white residue in my fingers and when i asked they said it will come off in the shower?? Also my nails look like I painted them with white out it's sloppy and uneven. Do not come here. read more

Went today for a manicure/gel. The employees are all very nice and accommodating. The place was clean and well maintained. What I always look for is if the instruments they use are individually wrapped and sterilized from an autoclave. I did not see this. Which will make me not return. Second is my nails were not fully painted. Some were not painted up to the cuticle and some not painted at the end of the nails. (See pictures) read more

I got a powder manicure and it didn't even last a week. The technician also painted the top of all my fingers and didn't even notice. It was just such a sloppy job. I will not make the mistake again and come back here. read more

I have been here a few times now. They are slightly cheaper than peer places in the area which is always a plus. They do gel and dip amongst other services. The first time I went there, I got a dip which started coming off within the first week. They were very easy to work with to get it fixed for free. I've recommended this place to others as well. read more

I have been to this salon many times and they do a solid gel manicure! My last one lasted almost 4 weeks with no chips!! They are very friendly and I love the massage and the paraffin wax treatment at the end! Especially since my hands get so terribly dry in the winter. *It's good to note that you get 10% off with cash. Also, once you fill up a card over time, you get $8 off! read more

Pink Nails & Spa - Gel manicure with Shelac (I think it's number 46 or 47) - Nail Salons Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I love this place. They are always kind and down for anything. I went in asking for ghost fingernails because I teach toddlers and try and make fun nail choices every season. The artist took a look at the picture I brought in, took a deep breath, and did a STELLAR job. They are lasting fantastically and are so fun!!! read more

I don't know why I made the mistake of coming here again after my last experience but it was close to work and I figured it would be a quick go to and the rest of the reviews are all so great. Stay away. Don't waste your time or money. They have no idea what they're doing! The nail polish is all watered down and their prices are way too over priced. I asked for a French pedicure & the man that probably just started doing nails yesterday was the one assigned to me. He took over 45 minutes on my feet in the end I just got regular polish because he looked like he was just doing busy work. I had to ask him to cut my nails then file my nails cuz clearly he had no idea what he was doing. I should've left after my horrible pedicure but I decided to give him a chance with my manicure. What a horrible horrible horrible mistake. I have UV gel on and it's usually self explanatory what to do. This guy started doing busy work with the buffers and then when he started putting powder on my nails instead of gel I knew I needed to get the hell out of there but again I gave him a chance to finish and maybe he was doing it differently than what I'm used to. The other three women there just kept starring and looking away as if they knew whatever he was doing was horrible but didn't want to be bothered. Anyway, long story short I ended up asking him to just cut my nails and put regular clear nail polish on. He said ok. Buffed my nails a little more going some busy work I asked again if he can put clear nail polish on. He said sure then he asked if Im paying card or cash. So He asked me to pay $55 and then said he'll put on the clear after I paid I said I didn't want it. They're horrible & I'll probably be going somewhere else to get them done the right way. I hate writing negative reviews but this place doesn't even deserve one star! read more

Pink Nails & Spa - Idk what he thinks he did here. Look at the index nail - Nail Salons Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

A few things to flag. 1. Employees do not wash their hands after using the bathroom 2. Employees are rude, talk about customers and do not thank you for tipping 3. They cut your nails uneven, as well as uneven coats of polish 4. Cut you by accident and don't apologize read more

You can't get a price better than this anymore! $15 reg manicure, woman was so sweet and interested to get to know me, and gave me a massage while drying. Only down side is their selection of colors (lots of dark warm tones less lighter and newer colors) read more

I got a gel manicure done here, and the gel fell off within two days. I simply took a pair of loose gloves off, and off came my gel polish as well. I called the nail salon and asked if they would consider re-doing my nails, and they were very short with me and told me basically 'oh well'. Upset, I told my mom about the experience and she re-called them and got me another appointment. I arrived at my appointment on time, and after waiting an hour, they still did not re-do my nails, yet instead gave me a coke and a $50 and told me to leave... Furthermore, the service was horrible when I originally got my nails done. The man doing my nails took way longer than any other place I have gotten my nails done, and they just looked poorly done, hence probably why it took less than 2 days to fall out. I wish I could of given pink nails, zero stars. read more

A few things I have noticed over the years I attended this shop. Not everyone at the salon knows how to do nails smoothly, cleanly and long lasting. Also, the older Asians treat black customers differently than the white customers. The tend to have the black customers wait longer and do not give them the same attention as the white customers. I will not be back. read more

I would give this place a 5 star for nails but feel the need to inform people to beware of getting waxing done here. 2 days before Christmas I got a pedicure, dipping powder mani, and unfortunately eyebrow and lip wax. My upper lip is scarred from a poor and painful wax job and then the lady wanted to put alcohol over it...absolutely not! I was more composed at the time and thought how kind of her to give me a $10 gift certificate ( although sheWebber mentioned or apology for what she did)...but after waking up this morning and seeing my face I'm pretty upset. Again nails were great but don't go here for waxing. read more

Great neat place. Everything is clean and new. The ladies knew what they were doing and did it quickly (but not too fast). They were very nice and offered magazines and water.

Great neighborhood salon. Got me right in. Amazing prices and quality. Will be back for sure!

I went to this nail salon in the 22nd. By the 27th, the gel polish started chipping off three of my nails. I went back on the 28th to have them repaired. Upon my arrival the nail tech asked me to show the loyalty card as proof that I was there just a few days ago. I had no problem with doing so and showed her my card with the Sept. 22nd written in. Now here is where the problem began, not 5 minutes later, a white woman walked in with the same problem. Two of her nails were damaged after getting them done a few days ago. The nail tech just asked her what she did to damage them and told her to have a seat so they can be repaired. At that point, I was completely baffled and couldn't help but ask the tech why I, a black woman, had to show proof and the white woman didn't. The nail tech had no explanation and just looked at me with a blank stair. The white woman apologized for the concern I had and tried to tell me that the lady may have recognized her she also stated that she understood my concern. She actually looked like she sincerely felt bad about what transpired. Well, I'm no stranger to this salon myself and have even referred my mother, a co-worker and a random Facebook friend to them. However, I am happy to say that I will NEVER return to this nail salon again and I will tell the people I referree of my experience so they will never return again as well. If I have to prove that I used your services then everyone, regardless of color should have to prove it as well. read more

First time here instead of South Street Nails 2 blocks down. Overall, the facility is nicer and it's a more refined experience. Would gladly come back, but I'll return to SS for their amazing full arm/lower leg/back massages (100% the reason for getting my nails done at a salon rather than at home!). Pros: *Got seen immediately when walking in *Clean, bright, and new facility in a convenient location *Provided a bottle of water *Comfy massage chairs with USB charging ports. *manicure was great and efficient. Smooth technician with a lovely firm arm massage, seemed fluent and comfortable in what she was doing. No cuts or snips when cleaning up cuticles. *Cash discount. Cons: *Not the greatest fan of my pedicure; lots of little nips and filing under the nail bed (ouch!), and exfoliated the smooth part of my foot more than the pads. The gentlemen who did my pedi seemed more hesitant. *Decent massage, not amazing. *Tips not accepted on credit cards. ****Edit: 1.5 days later and the polish quality is showing it's true colors. Went on Saturday afternoon, and it's only Monday morning. I had an extremely lazy Sunday and the polish is already about cracked and about to peel :( read more

My first time at the salon and it was wonderful. Aside from some very rude customers, I really enjoyed getting my nails done here. My nail technician was Amy and she was just the sweetest, she was willing to do my nails according to my preference especially when i kept insisting for rounder edges. She was so patient with me and gave me a really relaxing back massage as well. Overall, i had a great experience here, will come back for sure. read more

This nail salon was new to the neighborhood. I excited for a place close by home. Unfortunately I will not be returning. The staff was very kind and professional. However, I will not be paying $60 for subpar services. My gel manicure was horrible. I always love the color white for nails, but the end result turned out blotchy and uneven-even after three coats. Pedicures are okay-just average. Nothing special about this place. read more

I left a raving review 2 years ago for the spa pedicure. They do a really great job on pedicures, but every manicure Ive ever gotten since has been pretty bad. My gel manicure was too think and peeled a week later, I tried long lasting nail polish instead of gel the next time and it literally came off the next day. read more

This is the best nail salon I have visited in Philly so far. It's clean, quaint, has AC, and isn't crowded. The service is phenomenal and they truly want you to relax. They took great COVID-19 precautions and I felt safe and comfortable visiting. They did a great massage and the painting on my toes is perfect! They said their business has been very slow lately so please support them if you can! read more

I've given this place multiple tries and am now done. Most recently got a pedicure and, once again, started chipping a mere 24h later despite zero activity, so I'll be redoing them myself on vacation. I watched the tech clip my nails, do literally ONE swipe of a file to "shape", half heartedly barely apply base coat (one dip for all 5 nails on each foot), apply the polish as if it were her first time ever (uneven and no smooth borders), and get top coat all over my skin. Massage was literally a joke. I quickly realized this was not going to end well, and even though I pointed this out, was told it was fine. $30 plus tip and I literally could have done in better myself. Same thing happened last time with my pedicure and gel manicure x2, so guess joke is on me. It's convenient location wise but never again. Staff is quite unfriendly which is just icing on the cake. Hate to say it, but after literally 4 tries in about a year, highly recommend going elsewhere. read more

Went in for a pedicure this morning. The foot and leg massage during the pedicure was amazing. They also used a warm stone which I didn't even realize was going to be part of the pedicure. The place is clean and friendly. I also got a back and neck massage while my toe polish was drying. I will absolutely be back and plan to tell my friends about it. The man who did the pedicure, his name sounded like Ee-yen (like Ian maybe), did such a great job. I will ask for him again for sure. read more

Love Heidi! She was so sweet and helpful and my nails looked amazing! I will definitely keep going back to her.
