    some things i love about this place: super friendly technicians/staff, really reasonable prices, my nails come out really cute. The only con is they can get pretty busy but that's not an issue if u make an appointment. This week, my acrylic nail chipped and fell off after i banged it into my door the day after i got them done (my fault) I went in expecting to pay the 3 or 5 dollars for the nail repair but my girl got me and she did it for free this time ;) overall it's a really solid nail salon, you just gotta make sure youre specific in what you ask for bc they're busy and want to get to everyone.

    This place does a great job. A full set of acrylics plus gel for only $30! And when one of the nail sizes she applied looked too narrow for my liking (just after glue) she clipped it off and unglued it without any push back or annoyance. They offered me a bottle of water when I arrived and helped me select the color I wanted quickly just by saying "I'd like a dark grey". For people who hate the decision making process of spinning thru the color wheels, this is a huge service. I can't wait to run my new nails down my lover's back.

    This place is absolutely adorable! My friend and I came here last minute to get acrylics sets. I had no knowledge of this place prior to stopping by, but I will 100% be coming back! The nail artists were friendly, diligent, and worked very quickly. For $50 it was DEFINITELY worth the price. Now my friend and I have super cute nails for Valentines Day! ‍

    Will come back!

    First time at Pinkys, was recommended by a co-worker. They did a good job, fairly inexpensive, paid 40 for a gel mani and a regular pedicure. They did an amazing pedicure, took their time to massage my legs... which I appreciate. On my nails I did OPI bubble bath gel color. I will come back!

    I have been going to Pinky's for 3 years now, not because it's any good but because it's fast and cheap. I hate getting my nails done bc nail techs are always rough, it's an expensive habit, and it's time consuming. A typical experience at Pinky's looks like this: Nail tech:Hi can I help you? Me: Gel manicure please. ( or whatever service I'm getting) Nail tech: Pedicure too? Me: No. Just gel manicure Nail tech: Eyebrows? Me: No, just gel manicure (while wide eyeing her green tattooed eyebrows) Nail tech: Ok pick out color I walk over to hooks that are overloaded with binder rings and fake nails painted in a variety of color. It's complete madness with too many options on one ring and hard to handle. If you pick OPI, most of the time they will give you some generic version like DnD. Side bar: don't bother making a reservation Thursday through Saturday. Don't ever get the old man nail tech with long pointy cocaine pinky nail or the older woman with the Posh-bob who asks if you're pregnant every time you're there. I have been getting gel polish off and on for 3 years as well. I take breaks every 5-6 months to let my fingernails breathe a bit. This time I went a little longer due to my own wedding, a honeymoon, friends and relatives weddings, and an awesome summer. My last trip to Pinkys I got the only nail tech that seems to care about my nail health, although she definitely downplayed the severity of it. She basically told me my nails were really long and due to the overgrowth, my nail detached from the nail bed causing white patches on my nails. (A doctors visit later confirmed its actually nail fungus) Said Nail tech recommended to cut off the nail where the white patches were to let my nails breathe and to come back in a month. A few days later my nails were in throbbing pain. I noticed little black spots (later learned it's splinter hemorrhages caused by the nail tech being so rough on me) and that's what prompted me to see a doctor. Reflecting on my own experiences and complete and utter ignorance, I'd like to share more observations. 1. Nail techs never wear gloves ( I never see them wash their hands and they're constantly eating, so gross) 2. The tools come out of resealable paper packages that they originally sealed, so it's not brand new or even officially sterilized. 3. The thermal sterilization cabinet they use to "sterilize" metal tools is always open, releasing heat, defeating its purpose. 4. The finger bowl with the glass stones is never cleaned. Water gets dumped out and stones thrown in a bin disgusting cesspool bin. 5. Nail techs reuse buffers, nail files, nail brushes etc without spraying/sanitizing, or washed. They're used on both toenails and finger nails, increasing the possibility and spread of infections. 6. Brush used after Dremel use to clean dust is never sanitized and used on both clients and table top surfaces, increasing transfer of germs. 7. The green eyebrow nail techs are some of the meanest/ pushiest people on Earth & this is coming from someone who has lived in Philadelphia for over 10 years.

    This place is fantastic! The only place I'll go to in the city. A gel manicure and spa gel pedicure take about 3 hours but it's totally worth it. The girls take great care of me and go out of their way to make me comfortable. The gel lasts at least 3 weeks and they do beautiful designs.

    This is my new mani/pedi spot! The owners are awesome and great service.

    Great customer service!! I really like my mani/pedi & eyebrow wax.

    Love love love my girls at Pinky Nails!!!! They are the best. Perfection every time. If you are looking for a fishtown gem...stop by....you won't be disappointed. Get the spa pedicure worth every penny!!!!

    Got my nails done here before I left on vacation, not only did it take 3 hours but I left with the worst mani pedi I've ever gotten. I called back and was hung up on when I asked for a refund or credit since I didn't have the time to have them "fixed".

    Luv my highlighter yellow done by Linda.

    Linda and Lisa are the best! Thank you for always making my nails look amazing. Also a great place for the wee ones to get decorative nails.

    Getting did! Thanks ladies ;)

    It's a hit or miss here. Some techs are excellent, some just OK. They are always friendly so it makes up for any mediocre service.

She ensured the nail shape was to my liking and she asked a few questions about my expectations of the color before applying.

So I went online and set up a reservation for 630pm, wandered around for a little bit and came back. I was immediately greeted and told to pick out colors. I was then offered a drink list (virgin moscato me, please), then seated. The girl that helped me was absolutely amazing. She was so gentle with me, took her time cleaning up my cuticles and making sure that my nails were healthy before she applied my gel x nails. We were going back-and-forth about the length and I'm a long nail girl so we tried some medium length ones. I hated them, so she tried another set that was just right. I started off with a green color which she told me that we would have to apply too many coats for it to look right, even though it was a very beautiful color. So we opted for a different color which is more of a sky blue with hints of purple. I absolutely adore the color. I cannot say enough, how wonderful the experience was! How gorgeous my nails look, and it was less than $100. I left her a hefty tip and I set up my next appointment for three weeks. I will be returning.
