Chiew Zhang is absolutely incredible, one of the best pedicures i have ever gotten. 100% recommend & will be returning!!

Primp and Polish is a little bit on the pricier side, but you definitely get what you pay for when you come here: excellence! They've got a huge selection of nail polishes, and the nail technicians are friendly. You're offered refreshments, the pedicure stations are a secluded oasis and everything looks very clean. The nail tools are opened from a sanitary pouch right in front of you. Pretty reassuring if you're a germaphobe. Manicurist did a great job on my nails. The skin around my nails is very dry, and manicures are sometimes very painful. Not this time! She worked slowly and diligently, and by the end, my nails were perfecto! Will definitely come here again. read more

Chiew is the best at the Greenpoint location; and Joey is the best at the Driggs location. Joey was my 1st technician and I love her she is amazing. I love her designs and she is allowed to do any type of design to my nails. The Greenpoint location is 2 blocks from my house so i started going to Chiew and I am so happy with her too. Last time I did the Matte nails and normally my nails come off after 2 weeks but these are staying on for a long time. It took me a long time to find Joey and now I found Chiew so I'm very happy. Please be aware that the prices are a little higher then the regular salsons you may go to in GP but it's worth it. read more

Grazel at reception- so accommodating and helpful. Linda did my nail art off a pic I had, did amazing. Attention to detail and just hand control on freehanding the lines was crazy! Posted pic of results (yellow nail art) Everyone else seemed too tired and exhausted to remain upbeat. read more

Primp & Polish - LINDA IS AMAZING! She's so patient and talented. I had a pic of art and she was able to come up with this on the spot. - Day Spas Near Me - Greenpoint, New York

What can I say? This salon is top notch! I came in the door and I was greeted by a young man who took my name and phone number. He said my manicurist would be with me soon. He gave me her name. To let me know who would take care of me. I had a seat on the plush lounger and waited approximately 2 minutes. My manicurist greeted me with a hello and a smile---and off we went. The place is expansive and it does not feel like a factory! There is no rush. Once we got to the pedicure area, I was floored by how private/chic it was. She used a lemon on my feet to prep them before an outstanding scrub down with sugar and a light oil.Heaven!!! My manicurist was so detail oriented that after my massive scrub down she went back over my feet to go over spots that were not perfect! I love this place! I'll be back. Never going back to that salon on Broadway in Bushwick ever again. So glad I found you! Oh,and they have great specials during the week. read more

Primp and Polish has horrible customer service. I made an appointment with my preferred technician for my services. Upon arrival, I was informed that she was not assigned to my appointment and the person at the "call center" failed to attach anyone specific to my services. I relayed that at the top of my call to make the appointment I asked for who I preferred and as my profile will indicate she's my only technician, she's the only person I ask for, I would not have just made an appointment with anyone. When the front desk personnel looked at my profile and couldn't deny that the error was on their part, I don't feel like she did everything she could to rectify. I didn't do all the services I made the appointment for, my technician was rushed and therefore didn't do a good job, I didn't receive a single apology or recognition of the error was not made. I couldn't complete all my services and therefore missed out on the discount/deals for combo services. I sent two emails to the customer service account, no response. The only people you have to deal with if you have an issue is the front desk person, but not only are they not helpful they usually don't have the answers, so customer service just remain unmet. One appointment my technician had to advocate for me because I was being overcharged. I won't be going back and I would say don't bother trying. There are too many better rated nail salons in Williamsburg that do the same if not better nails, to deal with this poor service. And to be clear, this is in regards to the front deck and not the technicians, but you can't get to the technicians without dealing with the front desk. read more

I've been visiting Primp and Polish (Greenpoint and Bedford Avenue) for a few years now and have yet to have a bad experience. The ladies who work there take such pride and care in their work, and will never leave you disappointed. They have a wonderful weekday deal, and makes the whole experience worth the price. Going to Primp and Polish is such a treat. I highly recommend the gel manicures - they're fantastic! Love. Love. Love. read more

The best spot to do a perfect manicure ! A very nice team, always smiling and very professional. I did my manicure 3 days ago with regular nail polish and it's still perfect ...It's just amazing ! read more

Primp & Polish - Day Spas Near Me - Greenpoint, New York

A little pricey, but my mani and pedi always last a long time. They also patiently let me hem and haw over nail polish color trying on several. The scrub is nice and different than the other local nail salons. Tools are sterilized and some are completely new, but they look like they go on a metal tray that might be reused for all the customers? Not sure about the last part. read more

I am new to the neighborhood and have been trying to find a spot to get my nails done and this is NOT the place. I've dropped in while the place was nearly empty FOUR times only to be told there wasn't time for gels and dismissed. I've never been asked if I'd be open to a manicure or told where or how to book an appointment. Bad vibes! read more

I've been going to see Wendy Weng for gel mani/pedis for over a year now. Service is great (front desk and manicurist), they strictly follow COVID protocols, and my color always lasts til my next appointment. It's also a quiet, relaxing atmosphere. read more

First visit and overall it was excellent. Huge selection of gel colours and most importantly, the manicurist (is that a word?) was meticulous, taking her time to ensure each nail was equal in length and that my cuticles were trimmed to perfection before applying the first coat. Atmosphere is relaxing and very clean. Only critique is the reception staff is not very friendly or smiley. A bit like the staff you'd expect from a high end Celine boutique on 5th... Will definitely be back and may give their other outlets a go. Ps the one I went to was on Manhattan Ave. read more

Did I just pay $44 for a mani?? What in the word did I get? I walked in ad asked for a regular manicure, was it the polish I picked? I don't get it. Lin did a gorgeous job but there was absolutely nothing special about the service which would make it a $44 mani. I tipped her another $10 because my nails look gorgeous but holy moly I definitely will not be coming back read more

I've seen two technicians at this location and both were lovely and paid attention to detail.

Walked in without an appointment for a gel mani and was accommodated right away. I do recommend making an appointment though unless coming in at a non-busy time. I absolutely love the atmosphere in this place - very laid back. Take your time picking out nail polishes from a very wide selection. Yes you can find Chanel, Dior, NARS etc nail polishes. A gel manicure is $35 but it's done to pure perfection. Each nail was done precisely to match. My nails were not filed off my length and filed perfectly squared. My cuticles were cut very delicately so that I don't have to worry about overgrowth. They also scrub your hands prior to nail polish application so they're nice and soft :) Very very happy with the service and already made an appointment for my next visit. read more

Primp & Polish - Pure perfection. - Day Spas Near Me - Greenpoint, New York

I am a very picky customer. I really appreciate good work and can't stand sloppy job.. so i came to this location for a pedicure to match my nails that i have done earlier. I will attach picture and all i can say this is not a job that has to be done for this amount of money. I really hoped this place will be good. I always had to point out what has to be done to the lady who was doing my nails (?) i believe her name was Racchu. Felt like she just started working as a nail specialist yesterday. read more

Primp and polish is one of the best nail salons I've encountered in the city. I love the salons (both the Williamsburg and Greenpoint locations) - they are modern and clean and have a wonderful selection of colors. Also you can't beat the prices - one of the best deals in the city! Everyone in the salon is so helpful and nice. This was such a wonderful experience and I'm so happy with how my nails look! read more

This is probably the best location of the Primp & Polish chain. It's huge and very clean. My toes were a horrible mess before coming here but Hana saved them! I came in for a classic pedicure ($27) but she was thorough and did an amazing job. My feet came back to life! When she started putting the color on I was so disappointed. Catching my disappointment Hana told me, "it's ok! We can pick a different color." She found me the peach color of my dream (Essie Shop til You Drop). I live much closer to the location on Driggs but I will travel further to this location. Also their prices are about 3$ less than the Driggs location. read more

I brought in a photo that was quite detailed to have drawn on my nail(s). I honestly wasn't sure if it could be done. They sat me down with Chiew and she began working on them. Getting very specific with coloring and even came up with ideas that made it BETTER than what I had brought in! I was offered tea and was beyond joyous with the outcome. I will be back for sure. Thank you Chiew!!! read more

Went here for my first time last week. I got a regular pedicure and gel manicure. The pedicure was great! I am disappointed in the gel manicure. Within 3 days i started noticing chipping in the corners and I do not use my hands for work. Now all my fingers have the tips lifting. Pretty disappointing as this is an expensive place. read more

One of my favorite locations for nails. The staff is always lovely and attentive. Amazing color selection and great layout. Always have a great experience. read more

Love this place. Always get a regular mani pedi and I am never disappointed. My mani ends up lasting for weeks with out a chip. Service is impecable and well worth the price. read more

My go-to. I live a few blocks closer to other places, but walk a little as Primp & Polish is by far the best. Clean, sleek, spacious and relaxing atmosphere - no loud noise, no TVs, no salon fumes, etc. I get the basic mani & pedi, and sometimes go for a gel mani (my nails just don't love gel so it's special occasions only for that) The basic pedi feels luxurious compared to to those at other places, with lemon slices to exfoliate cuticles, signature sugar scrub, your choice of essential oil, and hot stones. All technicians I've had have done a great job. Everyone's quiet, but most are very warm once you start talking, and remember you, saying hello even if you're with another tech. I trust that I'll get a good quality service and so don't feel the need to book with just one person. Even bought a scrub for home - it's that good! read more

Terrible and overpriced for quality given. I paid $44 plus tip. Looks like I did them myself. Never coming back here again. Not worth any penny. read more

Primp & Polish - My cuticles still show !!! This is gel ? Very disappointed. - Day Spas Near Me - Greenpoint, New York

the service is a hit or miss depending on who your nail technician turns out to be. that's my guess considering the girls beside me seemed to have a blast but i didnt. it was overpriced. the concierge was extremely sweet and fit me into their schedule last minute, for which im grateful, but the experience was lackluster. for a $20 manicure i expected a little more pampering, perhaps the option to select the scrub scent, but no. the scrub itself lasted 2 seconds. my tech's tools seemed clean, coming in a sealed plastic pack, but they were laid on top of a heavily used tool in the same tray. doesnt that defeat the purpose? the hand massage was forgettable. the cuticles were cleaned well, so i tipped generously, but there were minor specks left on my manicure. two girls beside me were offered quick dry spray twice and i was never offered once. i tipped well too, even though my tech was a bit abrasive. it wasnt a poor experience, but it never stood out either. read more

Great time. It was quiet, peaceful and the lady was great. Lisa helped me through my first pedicure ever. Definetely worth the money, going back for more. They give you tea or water and the facilities look very clean. read more

This salon is beautiful with tall ceilings, lots of light, calm atmosphere, and it's very clean. Staff is very nice as well. They also have a huge selection of colors to chose from. For my pedi they used a fresh lemon wedge on my feet for a detox. They also did a massage with hot stones and put the stones under my feet for a few minutes, which felt AMAZING. Another thing I appreciated is that Tiffany asked me if I liked the colors I chose as soon as she put it on. And above all, my nails look perfect. I highly recommend this place for a great mani/pedi, and a true treat your self Sunday morning. I also recommend Tiffany, she was very nice and did a great job :) read more

God bless Primp & Polish. I went there the day after they opened and got my first gel mani/pedi for my wedding. They are fast, friendly, great at what they do and, most importantly, clean! Clean as in Apple Store sanitary. The place looks like a Genius Bar, but far more efficient :) Whenever I'm getting my nails done there I find myself staring longingly at the amazing graphic nail art demos by Chiew. I started following her on Instagram (@primp845chiew) and next time I'm definitely booking her. If you make an appointment, arrive early-if you're like me, you'll want to spend a while scanning their bonkers color selections. read more

Service has gotten even better in terms of the front desk and still great job from the nail technicians

The pedicures are wonderful, my bad review is on the blond at the front desk (I guess the manager) who has the worst attitude and customer service skills I have ever seen. She was rude from the moment we walked in - no hello how are you, just "pick your color". Then when we asked for something that states in clear writing "add on service for feet and hands" she scolds us to make an appointment for it. Don't put it on add on service, and even if that is the case SAY IT NICELY! You run a nail salon sweetie not Wall Street. read more

I've come here for years and their prices have always been reasonable with good service however they are becoming more expensive and choose who they want to give a discount to. The past several pedicures I've had to come back. I will be looking for another location. read more

This place is beautiful and clean. The front desk lady is so warm & friendly. She's absolutely charming. I received a waxing service by Doma. She was great. I couldn't be happier with how nice my skin looks & feels. I want to mention that they have a great online gift card system. Just fabulous. I'm always coming back. Thank you Primp & Polish! read more

Was so looking forward to coming to this place for the first time when my sister was visiting from out of town to treat her to what should've been a nice mani + pedi. I called to make an appointment on Sunday at 12 for a Monday appt at 315. When we showed up to our appt the lady said they had no record of the appt and weren't flexible to squeeze us in on behalf of their mistake. On top of that they accused me of lying about ever having an appt, rude. I was embarrassed and left without an appt for my sister and while she was visiting. Better customer experience at this place would match the price tag they demand. read more

I spoke with owner. Very professional. Very detailed and well explained. It was miscommunication while passing the information . I wish I was told same information before. I'll escalate it from different side. Monika as privet person not as an employee of the salon. read more

Love this place. I always go to ling for hard gel and gel color. They sometimes run out of polishes but I forgive them because Ling is the best! Very thorough and professional. read more

Lovely clean and modern nail salon that offers a welcoming and thorough service from start to finish. Will definitely visit again.

love this place, clean and they did so many detail , wont take too long , a little bit pricy but worth it!!! read more

I love this place! I have tried lots of nail places because I like quality work. The girls at Primo and Polish are really detail oriented, very thorough and meticulous. And I love the fact they always try to accommodate you. read more

They are very good at what they do. No rush at all and the end product is beautiful. I will be going back.

Had to wait a week to post because I needed to see how the mani/pedi would do. Literally after the first day my GEL manicure was already chipped and my pedicure was too. Services I received: the honey spa pedi and gel mani My level of salon experience: wasn't my first salon rodeo. I've never had a gel mani chip the first week or a pedi chip within the first three weeks! Pros: salon esthetically pleasing and "clean", tons of colors to choose from. You pay for the looks of they place and their rent. Cons: OVERPRICED FOR BAD RESULTS! what does it matter if the results don't last and it's not "user error" but application error. First off the mani and pedi lacked in massage, care of any treatment and I had the spa kind! The woman who did my mani/pedi did not properly clean the nails before application (oils still left) and did not leave the nails in long enough for the gel to set. I knew this and even after I asked was given a side-eye. Had to get going and the gentleman who was taking the money (the manager?) wasn't there so just decided to pay and see what happened. sure enough... Now I'm on business travel and spent way to too much money on something I could have had done in bay ridge at Mimi's nails where they do SUCH a better job!! read more
