Great service and very friendly! Awesome design by Suie. Great attention to details. Must come back salon.

Gel removal and regular polish
Carina H.

QQ Nails had a pristine look about it, and the service was very nice and friendly. The great service was definitely a standout. The hand massage after I got my polish felt super nice. (I wish the massage was longer to be honest, but it was a definite treat.) I also got the pedicare, which left my lower legs and feet feeling very soft. You don't get the polish soaked off for gel removal; you get the polish shaved off. It's personally not my preference, since my nails felt weak already. That left some texture under the regular polish, which shows through but isn't super obvious unless you look at my nails closely. However, would I go back? Certainly, although I'll likely wait until my nails get healthier again. The gel colors are so pretty, so I want to try those!

Hello #NewYork we now have a monopoly of a #Nail #Spa #Salon who are #takingadvantage of and giving horrible service with #noremorse I came in for my #wedding services this was less than a week later @QQNailsSpa they didnt finish the service! I had to paint myself. My pedicure is #completely gone. I was put #inpain by the tech, they offered me to come in WITHIN A WEEK WHILE I WAS ON MY #HONEYMOON...and get services redone, or 15% for coming BACK to the same place. QQ Nails Spa I have never been this #mistreated but what is worse is this ...Part 3: company @QQNailsSpa is now buying up multiple locations in #NYC and #Westchesterester and is going to #disappoint more clients than ever. If they acted this way for my #weddingday think of what they will do to you? #300DOLLARS with #tips and still this.. #DoNotSupport

Where do I even begin. I went to 2 separate locations on the upper east side. The first location on 2nd ave the nail tech was very rude to me. The second location I went to on 3rd ave they were very nice to me and they gave better customer service. However, I'm very upset with the lasting quality every time I've been. I've had to visit them 3 separate times to fix my nails. Because the builder gel bubbled up and cracked 3 days after getting my nails done. I have a really busy work and travel schedule and it's been really frustrating. I recently moved to a new apartment and tried QQ nails for the first time but after repeatedly coming across issues, I don't want to go again. I never had this issue with my last nail salon downtown. My nails would last 4-6 weeks. Very upsetting.. I honestly do not recommend going here.

While the ladies were friendly at QQ, the job done and the quality of the establishment were quite low. Very low attention to detail, the paint isn't evenly done across my nails and the shape isn't really what I wanted. Didn't have a ton of colors either. Service was ok....not a ton of time on the pedicure really exfoliating the legs or spending time properly cleaning the cuticles on nails. I don't expect this to last long given how poorly the nails were painted - will not be back for sure, esp given it wasn't quite expensive for the work done.

I have been to other QQ Nails & Spa locations but this by far was the worst experience. I have never had my nails crack right after getting my nails done. 5 nails are cracked! I'm not sure if i was under the uv light for too long or the mix of soaking off my dip mixed with the gel made my nails very weak or the lady who did my nails doesn't know what she is doing. I just know i will never go to that location again. I also got a gel pedicure and that was done well. I love that QQ Nails & Spa puts wax on your heels free of charge! That i would say is their saving Grace and i would consider going for a pedicure but never got a manicure of any kind. Lastly i had some nails that needed a tip and those nails cracked under the extensions.

I got a Japanese manicure with Linda and she was awesome! I think walked in last min and they were able to squeeze me in. Japanese manicure takes a while but it's totally worth it since it lasts a very long time

Caitlin L.

I loved my experience here, and Linda is amazing! They offer japanese gel manicures which is a very high quality gel and I like it better than normal gel polish.

I happened upon this salon while I was in NYC and was intrigued by the Japanese gel advertised in the window. I stopped and made an appointment for that afternoon. The tech was very meticulous in the shaping of my nails and the application of the polish. I don't know that I've ever had such a perfect application. And the gel lasted over 2 weeks before it started coming off. And, as also advertised, the nail underneath looks healthy and is nice and strong, maybe even better than before the manicure. Great experience and when I'm in NYC next, I will be stopping by again!

Great care taken. Excellent and reasonably priced mani and pedicure. I walked in and waited less than 5 minutes. Will be back!

I said I wanted a regular pedicure. They handed me a menu that didn't include the regular pedicure and then charged me double. Dishonest

I needed a quick wax before vacation and since I had a last minute work trip to NYC, I was under a…read moretime crunch. So when I looked up waxing services on Yelp and noticed that Uni K was nearby, with great reviews and online booking I was locked in! First of all, it was so happy to see that they had some same day appointment availability! Why that may not always be the case, some booking systems will still only show starting next day. I also loved that their menu had a lot of options, including more than one type of Brazilian to book. When I showed up to my appointment, I checked in and filled out some basic, new client information. I was then taken to my room with my waxer promptly after. They use hard wax here which many people prefer, but for me hurts the most. But I don't really care what is used as long as they're hygienic, quick, effective and will not spawn in-grown hairs. My waxer was quick, thorough and one week out...things are still looking good! As a bonus, first time clients got a significant discount which made me even happier about my experience. While my experience before check out was already excellent, that was just icing on the cake. Overall, I left very impressed and will definitely return again in the future!

EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING and honestly upsetting experience. My little sister ran to her appointment…read moreand arrived flushed and a little sweaty, and the technician -- I believe her name was B -- proceeded to wax half the area before suddenly stopping and telling her that she was "too sweaty" to continue and that she would need to wait 40 MINS + an additional hour if the next client showed up. For context, my sister has been getting waxed regularly for over eight years. She is athletic, healthy, and this has never happened to her before. She was not dripping in sweat or experiencing anything extreme -- she had simply rushed to make the appointment and was flushed. None of that should even matter in terms of how respectfully a client is treated, but it made the reaction feel even more disproportionate. The technician told her she would need to wait 40 minutes or longer before they could continue, in part because another client was coming in. That is where this started to feel less like a legitimate waxing concern and more like a scheduling issue that my sister was being blamed for. I could completely understand saying, "Let's give you a few minutes to cool down so the wax adheres better." But stopping halfway through a service and telling someone to wait 40+ minutes is a very different situation. I have also been getting waxed for around 10 years, including throughout hot and humid New York summers, and I have never experienced or even heard of someone being treated this way simply for being a little sweaty. Beyond the explanation making very little sense, telling a client she is "too sweaty" in that manner is incredibly rude and inappropriate. There are professional, discreet ways to address moisture without making someone feel embarrassed or ashamed of their body. The fact that half the service had already been completed before this suddenly became an issue also made me seriously question the technician's judgment and experience. If it was genuinely unsafe to wax her, why was the service started in the first place? This is also a waxing salon with fans and powder available to help keep the skin dry. What made the situation even worse was what happened afterward. My sister called me on FaceTime while she was there and was literally in tears trying to advocate for herself and explain that the situation had made her uncomfortable. When my other younger sister later called the salon for more information, the woman at the front desk described my sister as "aggressive" and said she had made the staff uncomfortable. Well let me tell you, I'm the oldest sister and our youngest sister doesn't have an aggressive bone in her body. It made me so sad to see her shakily defending herself. She was upset, embarrassed, and trying to stand up for herself while crying -- not behaving aggressively. All the receptionist had to do was apologize! Getting defensive with emotional clients is never the answer. If you are the owner please review the call as they are all recorded. My sister also told me that after the waxing specialist left the room, she overheard waxers giggling nearby. I cannot say whether they were laughing about her, and I won't pretend to know that. But in that moment, after she had already been made to feel embarrassed and vulnerable, hearing staff giggling only made her feel even more humiliated. Timing, discretion, and basic emotional awareness matter enormously in intimate services like waxing. At the end of the day, this felt like an inexperienced waxer and a scheduling problem being turned into my sister's fault, while her feelings were completely dismissed. A client should never leave a waxing appointment feeling ashamed of a normal bodily response, humiliated, and then be labeled "aggressive" simply for saying she felt uncomfortable. Stopping a service halfway through, giving a questionable explanation, making the client feel embarrassed, and then dismissing her reaction afterward is unacceptable. I would not recommend this location based on how this was handled. SHAME ON YOU ALL YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE. MEANGIRL ACTIVITIES AT THIS LOCATION!!!! also not this is not the first time ive heard of other issues at this location. DO NOT LET THE FOUR STARS FOOL YOU. TERRIBLE STAFF HERE.

What made the situation even more frustrating was being told that my waxer had just come out and taken another client at 10:30. If my appointment was scheduled for that time and I had already checked in, I don't understand why another client was seen first. I value punctuality and respect for my time, and I found this experience to be unprofessional and disappointing.
