    Lumpy, uneven, poorly shaped acrylic
    Morgan C.

    I'm not normally one to write a bad review but man did I have a horrible experience at this place. First of all I called before coming to ask if anyone had time to do a full set, the lady on the other end of the phone said it would be about a fifteen minute wait but that I could come. I was seated pretty quickly, but then ignored for long periods of time while she hopped back and forth between me and 2 or more other clients. Why not tell me you're booked and to try again another day rather than letting me feel ignored when I called prior to make sure there was time for me? The nails I came in with wanting removed and redone, were done at home by myself. She told me I did a "very ugly job" and that they were very uneven and looked bad.... thanks, could have just not mentioned it. She was in such a frantic rush between servicing me and the two or three other clients previously mentioned she spilled acetone all over my hands and was tripping over things and knocking stuff over. I told her my nails were natural (I had spent months growing them out and protecting my length with dip powder) and that I did NOT want them cut off, she disregarded that and cut them ALL OFF, and then had attitude when I told her I didn't want my natural length cut off, only trimmed and reshaped nicely, and that now she would have to give me tips to make up for the lost length. Then she proceeded to give me nails that look almost as bad as what I came in with, an atrocious uneven acrylic application and a splotchy gel top coat that left my nails looking textured. I was ready to walk out when I was being ignored with my fingers soaking in acetone for long periods of time and frankly I regret not doing so, these people didn't deserve my money.

    I moved back to Rochester last year after living in NJ for 25 years. I get biweekly fills and pedicures and I have very high standards. I started here and was instantly hooked. I moved to Webster and tried new nails salons but nothing was even close to R nails. I do gel fill ins which only a few nail salons in Rochester do for some reason. I will never go anywhere else again. I make the drive and am always happy when I leave. Their prices went a a bit after re-opening but it's worth it. They have tons of color and most do nail art! Make an appointment so you don't have to wait!

    So happy with my experience here. Is a classic nail salon, wasn't packed but really good service. I was looking for something simple and clean but wanted tips. She used a tinted pink/clear gel with coffin-snapped tips. Loved it!

    Blurry shot of my great pedicure! I was rushing in the airport when I took this lol (yes I went through security with my pedi sandals!)

    Wow, I loved this salon! It was very clean and inviting. Everyone is very friendly. The sister to the owner is really sweet and you can tell she enjoys what she does. They a good deal of $40 for a basic mani/pedi and $52 for a gel manicure and regular pedi. I opted for the latter service. They offered us hot towels and drinks (water, tea, soda) when we sat down, which was a pleasant surprise. My tech was very sweet and straightforward. She did a great job of properly cutting the nails, removing dead skin, and applying the polish. I love my gel manicure. 4 stars because my cousin's nail tech asked if she wanted a flower on her big toe without telling her it would cost an extra $5. Other than that, we both really enjoyed our services. What sets them apart from most nail salons I've been to is that they actually clean and sanitize their tools after every client. If I lived in the area I would visit all the time!

    The inside of the spa is pretty neat and clean. The nail technicians aren't very talkative but nice. If you're looking for a spa day to relax without having the other person trying to start small talk, then this place would be your go to. I got the T74 OPI Gel Manicure from Kevin which came out to be approx $27. First you get a bowl of water with orange slices to soften your cuticles. Then you get a hot towel to cleanse and steam your hands. There were folks waiting for over 20 minutes but Kevin took his time to double check and make sure that each nail was cut and filed to perfection. Afterward, you get a moisturizing hand and cuticle massage. I would definitely go back because they made sure the service was done right without rushing you.

    My short nails are manicured to perfection!

    Called ahead to make appointment, which is always best to do. This is the 2nd time I've had Howie do my gel manicure and he nailed it! Lol. Nice, clean and friendly atmosphere too.

    The nails: To die for, they met my unusual request with an open mind and they came out fabulous, no mistakes, and I was done in like an hour which was great. As for COVID: The place was super clean, all customers were spaced out between stations. The only thing is that the owner wasn't wearing a mask, and she walks around the salon without it.

    Update: I've been coming here for the past 3 months and my nails always look amazing! The trick is to book with either Gina or Angel who are both very meticulous when it comes to their work - I love it! Usually I get dip powder with a tip put on my nail and it costs $40, which I believe is reasonable for only having to get them done every 3 weeks. If you're looking for someone to perfect your nails, look no further!

    I had a great experience the first time I visited R Nail Spa. I had the gel dip and my nails looked fantastic. When I went there over the weekend, I had the opposite experience. I asked for a gel spa pedicure ($55) and gel manicure ($27). There was no one in the salon, yet they decided to do my hands and feet at the same time -- I will never do this again. For $55 I expect my feet to be soft and callous-free for at LEAST a week. My gel manicure has already begun peeling off and as a new mom with a busy schedule I don't have the time to stop back in to have it corrected. I hate leaving bad reviews but I'm so disappointed as I originally thought this was a great salon.

    How I wanted my nails
    Stephanie B.

    I am disappointed with the work that I got done. I had a pedicure and dip powder with extensions. The pedicure turned out nice the only thing that was wrong was my feet were still rough. I also showed the nail tech what I wanted my nails to look like and it looked nothing like how I imagined it. I eventually ended up going to a different nail salon to get my nails redone.

    Expected Nail Design

    I am very disappointed with this Nail Salon. I asked for a simple leopard/fall design and that's not at all what I received. The print wasn't even a print, it was just blobs of nail polish and when I recommended adding the black outline, she messed it up and didn't start over to fix it. The nails also scratched shortly after I left and the prices was NOT cheap, I paid $55 for nails that came out like shit. I highly do not recommend this salon for any designs.

    Love love love this new nail spa! I'm so happy this location opened up. It's clean, spacious, and the employees are the best. There are many regular, gel, and dip polishes to choose from, and the services are all very reasonably priced. I got a mani/pedi and am very satisfied with both. Gina did a great job and helped me feel so relaxed and pampered. This is my new go-to!

    It was alright. I can't tell if the lady was new at this or if it was me, but this was one of the…read moremost painful waxings I've been too. I've only gone waxing twice before but I never had any pain when I used to go, but this time it just felt like a world of pain. I usually have a high pain tolerance so I don't know if it was the wax they use, if she just wasn't as experienced (she was a new worker) or if I was just having an off day or something. On top of that there were spot of hair that she either missed or didn't do. The lady was nice and sweet and very comfortable to be around. It also only costed me around $74 with tip and tax. Was it the worst, no. Will I come back, probably not. Would I recommend this place, maybe. I think it's a good place to get a moderately priced waxing. Booking is easy and like I said staff was super sweet. But when it comes to the quality of the waxing I expected better.

I had only had my eyebrows waxed before (and was getting more done before my wedding & honeymoon - Brazilian, legs) so I was nervous, but Sarah made me feel comfortable and was quick and thorough! She chatted with me the whole time and put me at ease. The waxing lasts me a few weeks, which is nice. I've gone back monthly since. She is very professional but personable at the same time. There's a discount if you do a Google review, and she also has a reward punch card.
