    Crusty cuticles
    G L.

    Edit: I have gone back for gel manis a handful of times since this review due to convenience and also price. I've gotten mixed results each time but I will say that none have been has bad as this first time I went. So I would say it's definitely technician dependent.

    This has been my go to nail salon since the day I moved to LIC. All the ladies there are nice and professional. I'm easy going with the style and always pretty happy with all the gel manicures I got done here. Although some customers can be very specific about they what they want but I think this place deserves more than a 5 star review. They also have back massage services available which is totally worth your money. Go around 4-430 if you can, that way there's no wait and you can avoid the crowd

    I am a nurse, so my hands get washed and purell'd a lot. A gel manicure should last for 2 weeks without chipping or annoyingly peeling back from the nail. There are a couple nail technicians here who really strive to give you that, and that's why I keep coming back to my specific nail tech. If she's busy, I'll come back another day. If I can make an appointment with her, I get a lovely gel mani that lasts a full 2 weeks.

    They've revamped their nail salon and nail polish quality! Loving my gel manicure! Love it when the technician takes their time. So happy!

    It's my first time here and honestly I had a good experience. I was seated right away and worked on immediately. Everyone was very friendly and professional. The lady who did my nails (she had glasses) was very careful and articulate. She made sure every cuticle was taken off and everything was smooth. I asked for a certain design and it was very well done. Also her massage was out of the world....I felt every knot from my neck and back go away. The price isn't bad at all. I spent $33 for a gel mani with designs. Other places would charge more.. I would come back here- also the facility is very clean. Everything was very well put and I had a very positive experience here.

    I've been to multiple nail salons in the area - both the LIC waterfront and court square - and I think Q Cute is consistently the best. I asked for this design and they knocked it out of the park. I always call same day or day before to ask for an appointment. Highly recommend. Well priced, too!

    This is my first time reviewing a manicure because I want to make sure others in LIC residents and others don't waste their money. I spent over $40 on only the gel manicure that should at least last 10-15 days but it didn't last a week. It's sad that they believe taking people's money for service that is not worth it. I also did my pedicure and I had to tell the tech how she didn't clean off my nails before applying the nail polish. My recommendation for this business is work on customer service, smile and care about what you do everyday. They can't stay in business otherwise.

    I came today for the first time. Happy I did I loved my nails And prices are very reasonable not like other nail spots that love to over charge ..Will be back again.

    Horrible gel mani which they charged me $40 for. The lady was not comfortable doing a special powder gel effect nail but instead of telling me that , winged it, and the result was horrible. She then put this color on top which is nowhere near what I wanted but whatever. The result is a bumpy mess with nail polish everywhere. I had to leave so they couldn't do it all over again. I will not be returning.

    I've been patronizing this business since I moved into the neighborhood, in 2021. It was this past Thursday (2/15/24) when I walked in at 6:15pm. I told Amy I needed a mani/pedi (gel). She told me to have a seat and let the new guy do me. She knows me - so I'm not sure why she handed me to him. I sat down, & he proceeded. A Caucasian woman walked in about ten minutes later & started asking Amy should she leave, since I'm in the chair. IDK what that was about, but it was nine o'clock when the new guy finished my pedicure & my toes were not filed properly. Amy started stating to the white woman (who came after me-once she was done with her pedicure) how tired she was, & that I should come back tomorrow to get my manicure. I knew it though. I felt it as the time passed. This is black history month & me being African American - I was extremely offended. Esp b/c she chose not to service me-over them. She wouldn't dared let them leave-feeling how I felt, once I left. That's what was offensive. As a loyal customer (number one), and then watching her take every white person who entered the salon after me (number two), REALLY PISSED ME OFF. I will be finding a new nail salon. I had to then ask her to put the foil on my nails (which she did not want to do), with a plastic glove on-and walked in the cold, home. I then didn't have the tool at home-to remove the gel which was lifting from the acetone & it was really making me angry. I couldn't believe they just wasted my evening like that. When businesses show you how they feel about you, BELIEVE THEM! & then proceed accordingly. At this very moment, I still have gel particles on my nails. I'm way disappointed at how she did me. I asked to speak to ten owner and she told me that she is in China! So here I am, writing this very detailed review. Stop being rude to paying/tipping customers!

    This is my go to nail salon on the UES! I usually get cat eye and they do such a good job with the…read moreshape and shimmer. The polish lasts a really long time; these are my nails almost 3 weeks later. They also waive the credit card fee if you pay in cash, so definitely do the cash option if you can!

    I love Miki! I am so happy she opened another location, as it is closer to work and home for me (…read moreeven though I'm willing to take two trains and travel an hour to get my nails done by her). When I started getting my nails done, they were always short and so brittle that they would never grow, and my cuticles were terrible. As I got bored with the single color, I asked for an ombre at a random chop shop one day, which was a BIG mistake. Please see the first two pictures. I thought to myself that I might not be able to find someone to do nail designs until I saw my best friend's nails and was introduced to Miki. After going to Miki, my nails became so strong and long, and people are always surprised when I tell them they are my natural nails, with no extensions or anything over them. Miki brought all my nail design visions to life. My question wasn't if she could do it but which five nail designs I wanted to pick that day. She did my nails for my engagement, bridal, wedding, and baby shower, and I would not trust anyone else to do it for all my special occasions. I highly recommend her and trust me; you will not be disappointed.
