This is my go to salon for pedicures, whenever I'm in the area. Service is wonderful, nail technicians are super pleasant, professional and detailed. They take their time to give you great work and a pleasant experience. I do regular polish and it always stays on for a minimum of 3 weeks. Super cute and clean space, with lots of color options. You should definitely give them a try! read more

Shekina Nail Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Price gouging for mani and pedicures, the Spanish employees bad mouth POC who do not know Spanish. My French pedicure with regular polish was $55 (not gel, not powder), which I paid for in cash! The first time I was there I received the same French pedicure with a manicure for $55 and I paid with a debit card which came with a service fee for using debit card. Therefore, the price was higher using a debit card then using cash. Why is the price exactly the same the second time around especially when using cash and I received half of the treatments (no manicure) the second time around???!!! Unacceptable! WRONG, WRONG, wrong! Tomato tomato tomato! Nonetheless, I will not be returning, I nor anyone else should not be take advantage of! And to think I was in support of a female business. Smh. PRICE GOUGING TO THE MAX! read more

Unfortunately, I have to write this review; I have been 2x to this establishment, first time it was a french pedicure + simple manicure and 2nd was only for a french pedicure; 1-week differential. it is sad to say the nail salon is price-gouging customers and it's very sad to report because I can easily head to "5thAve Nail Salons" for price-gouging with way better treatment. The very first time I visited I was seen by Monica who completed my french pedicure and simple manicure with no polish, everything cost $55 with card use. The second time I came I had a french pedicure with NO mani and the cost was $55 in cash!!!!! Now explain "How Sway?" Monica explained there is a service fee with a card; a manicure is $14 with cash but $16 with a credit/debit card so forth, I accepted the fee with no hesitation. However, when I returned for the 2nd time, I brought cash and I did not get a manicure, less of a cost right? WRONG?!!!!! Monica charges me the same $55 with only a french pedicure and with cash for that? Now I know she was taken advantage especially since once I entered she was halfway through her friend's pedicure she was doing for free, how do I know this? The friend hopped right out of the seat when a paying customer came in (which was me) and when was drying my freshly painted pedicure the friend jumped right back to the seat to continue her treatment. No paying customer would stop their services for another to complete their service. It's sad to report, but I will not return to this establishment. I love to support women's businesses and possibly a black-owned female business but I will not be played for a fool!! I will not be returning, It's shameful and disgusting. I gave Monica $10 tip cash for the first time and $5 tip cash the second time knowing I was being taken advantage of. She will not see my funds anymore nor my friends, and family. I initially recommended this place. If you're in this area. DO NOT GO; just stick to the popular 5th ave nail salons in the area. FYI, I am using my fiancés' account because I don't have YELP and he suggested I use this platform. read more

When I moved to NY and the states I noticed that almost all nail salons had a basic-fast-money making approach to nail care and clients. This is not Shekina at all and I consider the girls here to have probably the best nail salon in the area. I've been getting my nails done for 4 years mainly my Mari or Monica, and they are THOROUGH with getting that mani and pedis to be perfect not just right away but weeks after. At a point when my nails were super weak and breaking a lot from the gel, Monica helped me get my nails super strong and healthy with vitamin base-coat and good nail care. I love and appreciate their service so much that I still go them even if now that I moved to Queens. If you aren't already, Give them a try and you will see the difference from their job to any of the other fast-salons. read more

Cute, clean & accommodating. Passed by here when I was waiting to check in my hotel, told myself I'd come back. Called at 7:00pm to see if I could come for a pedicure. They took me and we're thorough, didn't rush and didn't skip steps. Loved how clean and organized it was. My go to pedi spot when I'm in Brooklyn. Thanks ladies! read more

Shekina Nail Spa - Basic pedi $20 - Nail Salons Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This is my go to place for pedicures and leg massages! The place and tools are sanitary and I feel they girls go the extra mile to gently remove hang and ingrown toenails. I usually get a half leg massage with my pedicure and leave there feeling like a million bucks. My pedicure usually lasts 4 weeks! Because the place is small, I recommend making an appt. Because they are so good, they are so busy. I find Thursday nights is a slow night. That's when I go for some special attention! read more

Fabulous !!!! I found this place on yelp.. made an appointment this morning.. they took me right away.. and did an amazing job... they took their time and Monica was very sweet. I came for a pedicure because I wanted to check out the place before I did my gel manicure. I will absolutely be coming back. The pedicure took an hour, which was fine because I Wasn't in a rush . The prices are reasonable in comparison. The place is imaI have definitely found my new go to salon. Follow up..... I came back for my gel manicure . I made an appointment and they took me right away. They did a great job. Again.. very pleasant attitude. They told me if I have an issue with my nails .. to please come back and they will fix it. They look great.. I hope the polish lasts... it's nice to go to a place that appreciates your business. Thank you yelp for finding me my new salon. read more

I had a great time. They were on time for the appt and very professional. They didn't pay attention to the fact that I forgot to shave my legs for my pedicure lol. They were very clean and prompt. They did my boyfriends feet at the same time and he was satisfied. I'll be coming back. read more

Slooooooooweeeest manicure/pedicure eveeeerrrrrrr. You will be here for a minimum of 2 hours.. they're sweet, but every time I go I tell myself never again. I live around the corner so it's convenient but worth the walk a bit further toward the slope to cut the time in half that it takes for services here. read more

Best nail salon I have been! I have been to many nail salons in sunset park and in manhattan. This place is affortable and clean! They use new tools and have deals for mani pedi for 27 and gel mani pedi for 40. I got a gel pedi. They were so nice and they gave me the top notch service.They made my feet so soft! read more

Finally, a nail salon in my neighborhood that is better than mediocre to average. I've been several times now and had 3 different women give manis and pedis so I feel confident saying you can't go wrong here. The attention to detail is something I've only really seen in places beyond my average neighborhood spot and with much higher prices. Shekina also has way more brands and colors of polish that your typical salon, which is fun. It's pretty small and sometimes there are more technicians working than other times. I recommend making an appointment just to be safe as I've arrived and been told there was a wait upwards of an hour more than once. Good stuff. read more

Worst gel mani-pedi I've ever had. The woman who painted my nails did a terrible job and the whole ordeal took 3 hours! It was ridiculous. The woman stopped and started every two minutes and would get up and walk away because she had wrist pain, yet no one else offered to help. The result was a messy, unfixable gel manicure and pedicure that looked like a ten year-old did it. On top of that, it cost $70 without a tip! Terrible. read more

As I walked down the block surveying the neighborhood and saying to myself, "there are no nail salons around here", lo and behold I stumbled upon Shekina. The inside is stark white and the colors make you want to get your nails done here. I only got a pedicure and it was a good one. I was able to relax and throughly able to enjoy my experience. I would definitely give it another go and another and another. read more

Best Pedicure and Gel Manicure I've gotten In a longgg time... She took her time on my pedicure and Manicure, I'll definitely recommend this place for a nice pedi and mani and etc of course read more

I really enjoy the personal attention that is given at this salon. They soak off your gel long enough to not damage your nails, they paint your gel all the way to the cuticle, and they take time to make your paint look perfect. Plus, they have so many gel color choices!!! The ladies are friendly and welcoming, and the salon is very clean. I highly recommend giving this salon a try! read more

Shekina Nail Spa - Love their French manicure! - Nail Salons Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The place was extremely clean and brand new. Massage chairs are all new and working. The younger girl who gave me my pedi did an extremely good job and deep cleaned my nails. She was very detailed and made a great French polish job. Which is most important to me. The only downside is that she was inexperienced in massage. For some people it is not important, but for me it is a deal breaker. As in most nail salons in New York (specifically Asian run) they give good foot massages. I definitely respect a great pedicure and cleanliness which you WILL find here. read more

This Nail spot is a few blocks away from my house my daughter (12) stop by yesterday with her friend (14) to get their nails done but were told they only take costumers with appts only now my question is what happen with Walk-Ins Welcome as shown in here ??? I always heard negative things bout this place but I told my daughter to give it a try & look what happens their $$$ & costumer loss ‍ read more

These ladies are great! Love my manicures and getting my first pedicure now. Although the girl is new, it's great to see the more seasoned ladies always checking in or giving tips. I'm ok with that! Very convenient walk for me so that's a plus; open until 8 is super nice for my late work nights! Love Monica - she's thorough and loves to helping me try new nail polishes! Love my "mood change" polish :) read more

Love it here! The girls are super friendly and thorough! I'd only suggest doing an extra coat of polish or two but otherwise great! One day they noticed I kept rubbing my neck as it was very sore so they offered a neck massage while my nails dried! Super close/convenient to my apt and subway. Definitely recommend read more

Saw the place, came right in! Very clean place, the staff was lovely and the options ohhh the options!!! A very beautiful display of colors to choose from. One of the most thorough pedicures I've ever gotten. Definitely a place to revisit. read more

Shekina Nail Spa - So many colors :) - Nail Salons Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This place was phenomenal Everything from nail file to pumice Stone was all brand new in package and disposed of. They exceeded my expectations and all prior experiences in other nail salons. There was no rush, and I knew the tech wanted the best for my nails in the long run. They scrubbed my feet and legs and followed with a massage. I'm very happy to have found this gem read more

Wow!!!!!!!!! Definitely one of the most thorough pedicures that I've ever had. Really great facilities and staff. This is my new go-to. read more

This place is small I called ahead of time before I came in asking if I needed an appt they claimed I didn't little did I know when I got there it would be a problem.The workers are rude and have no respect . They also charge u extra depending on what kind of nail polish brand you pick which isn't that bad but again rudely saying so. I then tried to polish my nail to see what color I wanted and they rudely told me I can only try 3 they cannot be serious !They are not welcoming nor do they make u feel like it is a relaxing spa experience I thought because this place had many stars it would be great I ended up walking out in disgust due to the attitude they had for no reason . read more

This is only my second (and last) visit to the salon. The first visit was fine, normal, if a bit cold. But this past Saturday I went in for a mani-pedi and just a few too many things didn't go so well. I hate to not leave a more positive review because the women who worked there seemed nice enough, but here we go. The Pros: -It's $27 total for a mani-pedi. -I got sat down right away without an appointment. -It looked pretty clean. The Cons: -THE REAL PROBLEM: My big toe is red and swollen after this appointment. I don't know if the tools weren't clean enough or if she cut too close to the quick, but I'm genuinely worried it's infected now. ...other issues... -I paid with a card, which they said would be fine and the door had a "visa/mastercard" sticker on it. When I went to pay with a card, she took it to the back room, then came back with it and ran it, which I thought was kind of weird. They also automatically added a tip to the card without asking, though of course I was going to leave a tip. I left paying much more than I had planned. Moral, if you go, pay in cash so you can, you know, choose how you spend your money. wtf. -I (accidentally) selected a nail polish with a $2 up-charge. It's supposed to be long-last color, but it is already significantly chipping 1 day later. -Even though they did my hands and feet at the same time, I was there for almost 2 hours. That also may be normal, idk. read more

Although I was very excited to finally try this place so close to home, I waited for almost 30 mins before I had to finally just walk out. There was no communication and unfortunately, hardly any attention until I got up to leave. Oh well. Guess I'll stick to my place in the city. read more

This was my first time going. I actually really loved how meticulous they are about your nails. However, you should only go if you have time to burn. My mani/pedi took a full two hours. They have a vast selection of polishes to fit every budget. They are also super clean. Even though my technician pulled everything from a sealed plastic bag, she still sprayed it down with alcohol before using it on me. I will definitely go back. BUT not unless I'm off work. read more

So glad to finally have a nail salon in the neighborhood, and this place is very nice. I went last week and got a mani, pedi and eyebrow wax; all of which were done with great attention to detail and total professionalism. The tools are all clean & sterilized and the tech used hand sanitizer. They have a good selection of polish colors and brands, as well as gel polish. The pedicure chairs give great (and long!) massages, and everything is new & sparkling. The only complaint is that the foot scrubber (for heals, rough skin) is flimsy and not very effective, but I think that's a design flaw of the sterilized (disposable) function and not at all the tech's fault. Hopefully the owners find something more sturdy to use in the future. read more

I love them!!! They take their time, don't rush you and the massage chairs are THE BEST. Very clean establishment is a plus. A tucked away gem of nail salons in this area. read more

I've given this place multiple tries and have been disappointed. Service is too slow. I called yesterday and was told they open at 10am.Plus on the internet it's says there open at 10am. I've been here waiting since alittle befor ten it's 10:31am and no ones here yet. I wouldn't recommend this place Bayridge Would be your best option. Great service and they open on time. read more

I live in Sunset Park and don't have many options near me for a clean and modern nail salon. I was thrilled when I saw Shekina had opened in Greenwood hoping I could stop always heading to Bay Ridge or Park Slope. My gel mani and pedicure cost a bit more than I was used to but I loved the small white & chrome salon and my nails looked great. Unfortunately my gel manicure started to peel at the edges the very next day and by day three they were all peeling off. I have never had this happen before, so I popped back in and asked if they would re-do it for me. I had no time that week so it took a full week for me to get back in. They followed through with their promise with no attitude about it at all. I was very very happy with their customer service and can't wait to go back. read more

So excited to have a new nail salon in this neighborhood. There are very few options nearby. The ladies that work here are very friendly and do a great job!! I got a pedicure and I am very happy with how it turned out. They even gave me a neck/shoulder massage while my polish was drying. I will definitely be coming back! read more

I come here with my roommate at lease every 2 weeks to get mani-pedis and they do a great job ever time (for a great price too). The salon is very clean and they have a lot of color choices. They offer regular mani-pedis, gel and acrylic. They also do eyebrow waxing. Highly recommended. read more

I really wanted to give this place a 5. I was so excited about a new nail salon close to my home. Greeting when customers enter. Good mixture of colors. They use new tools for every mani/ pedi. I was thrilled. What led me to give only 2 stars was that after my pedi I left with 2 bruises under my toe nail. She dug in so hard I had a hard time wearing flats. I also had a mani done but with bubbles on all 10 nails. I guess she added one to many coats of polish. On top of that it took her 2 hours to do both mani/ pedi with no wait. Disappointed about my results. Won't be going back. read more

Very nice people, very clean place and very convenient. I love their work (so far only had a gel mani myself, but my Gma had a regular mani done and my mom had a pedi done). Will definitely go back. It's a small place so you might have to wait. read more
