Probably third or fourth visit over the past half-decade. Have always had decent experiences. Was just never that convenient unless I was in Southie. The past visit definitely needs a review, tho. The young woman who did my mani (no pedi) made it her personal OCD-mission to correct the failings of my previous salon in DC. (Not mentioning names, oh Enchanted one.) She attacked with ruthless --yet gentle--precision each and every snaggley cuticle and stray skin-curl. While there is no helping how chonky my fingers are, she made the nails and cuticles as smooth and soft as a puppy's belly. Total no-frills. Gel removal and replacement. $26 bucks. Will depend on who you get, of course. read more

Sky Nail & Spa - Gel mani - so shiny - Nail Salons Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Only wanted color removed without affecting the structure gel underneath. They started dremmeling everything off, added the acetone in foil, and then kept dremmeling until I stopped them to ask if the structure gel was also coming off. They said yes and you can't remove color without removing structure gel. This is entirely inaccurate as my usual salon (unavailable that day) removes the gel color every time I'm there to refill the structure gel where the nail has grown out. read more

Absolutely 0/10 recommend this place. To start the women were extremely rough with the drill taking off my previous dip. Multiple times I pulled away from the heat and pain. This is 5 days after getting them done. Cracked, discolored. I should've left. Save yourself the time and money. Extremely rude staff and crap work. Extremely disorganized inside. Looks like a hoarders house. read more

Sky Nail & Spa consistently makes my Pinterest dreams come true. For all of my Pinterest-inspired girls, you need to come here because all of the nail artists know exactly how to execute. Although there are several nail salons up and down Broadway, this one takes the cake. Each nail artist is incredibly talented and a perfectionist in their craft. I get my nails done monthly as a treat to myself and honestly there's no better feeling than getting a pedicure on a Friday after a long week of work. It's a good feeling to know that their work is recognized and appreciated since people often compliment on how much they love my nails. read more

Just the best. A hidden gem in Southie where they do great work without price gouging. They always have the colors I want, and the staff are always friendly and helpful. They are always prompt when I call and make an appointment and even do their best to squeeze people in without one. I typically get gel manicures, but have recently done acrylic with gel for a little bit longer wear. Gel is always done well, and the acrylics last almost 3 full weeks without lifting! (I do use cuticle oil and keep my hands moisturized.) They always crush the shape, and take my input/direction well. I never feel pressured to keep my nails too long etc. I will miss this place when I move. read more

Sky Nail & Spa - Baby Pink Dip - Nail Salons Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

went in for a dip manicure. The lady doing my nails got dust in my nail that was visible and had to be removed. instead of taking it out she used the drill and cut through my actual nail. I never agreed to her doing that. After she injured my finger I told her I wanted to leave and she told me I had to pay. mind you my nails were half done. She then grabbed my hand and drilled a line through multiple nails. Not only was this a negative encounter, but it was unsafe. While I was there I noticed that she was reusing tools on me that should be cleaned between each guest. I would not recommend this place. Dangerous, aggressive and dirty. read more

The owner was rude, on two separate occasions. Once to me and once to my mother.. On top of being rude she has cut my fingers on two separate occasions. My nail broke on a Monday at work after getting my nails done Sunday. The owner told me it would be one hour to get a simple nail fixed. Rudely cutting me off and talking over me.. Making the hand signal to go away. But I sat down to wait, once she finally checked on me to see what was wrong with my nail she was rude and aggressive with my hand. I let her fix my one nail and left, I won't be going back. Gaelic nail salon down the street is a much nicer friendlier place. read more

I came here with a gift certificate, first time, and I was more than happy with the end result not only was the nail technician, and Tina, very respectful of the age of my daughter and the appropriate length of her nails, but she was very friendly and very talented at what she does we will definitely be coming back here again. I highly recommend anybody that has not selected a salon for themselves yet to come to sky nails. The parking may be the only difficult thing when referring to the business but there is a parking lot across the street that you can usually get away with parking at! read more

I was in Boston for a business trip and needed a fresh set after a disastrous experience with a different salon (my nails were cracking, chipping and breaking after a week). I came here with a few ideas of what I might want. And let me just say this--the nail tech here, took care of me. We had conversation about the designs I had in mind and the nail shapes so we could figure out which would look best, and she even explained what the precious nail tech at the other establishment did wrong with my nails that caused them to have issues. Overall my experience was great. The staff were all polite, super friendly and talented. Definitely would recommend, just make sure to call ahead to make an appointment. read more

I came across this nail shop from a nurse that i work With at Boston medical center, and let me tell you it's the best place on earth. I got service done Friday September 14th. I went in for a dip powder, pedicure, eyebrow wax and a Brazilian wax (yes i know the whole nine yard) TINA TOOK VERY GOOD CARE OF ME, she is a perfectionist. I was looking for an ombré dip powder set and Tina took the vision in my head and made it come true. I told her this and so serious THIS IS MY NEW NAIL SHOP, and after seeing my vagina on the first day she will forever see me lol read more

I came here last minute to get a gel polish application (no manicure) just the polish. I am also a nail tech and didn't have time to paint my nails so I decided to just pop in here to have them polished. The girl that did them did an amazing paint job.. I'm really particular with my nails and was surprisingly shocked at how good she did because usually I end up fixing them a bit when I get home lol ! Very happy with the work ... wish I knew her name so I can ask for her if I ever need a quick polish again.. read more

I got my nails done here on Monday 2/20/2023 and my nails already cracked by Wednesday 2/22/2023. I came back and asked her to fix it and she said no come back in a few days. The crack was obvious and I got dip nails. It's not hard for her to fix it. I took an Uber here and wasted money and also had to take a Uber back. This is the first time I went to this salon and I would not recommend it to anyone. She wasted my time when all she could've done was redid the nails and I was willing to pay extra money. This is absolutely ridiculous and outrageous. Never go here. The owner is absolutely rude. read more

Sky Nail & Spa - Coffin shaped, french ombré with rimstones* - Nail Salons Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Really upset when I was convinced to get GEL X over the acrylics I initially wanted, and 3 broke off within a literal week. Not to mention one fell off in the middle of the service and when I expressed my concerns I was disregarded. I should have trusted my gut. I was extremely upset and so I called to ask for a refund. Because I don't live close enough for it to be worth getting them done again, I just wanted a refund and for it to be over with. She insisted I was doing extreme labor when I'm just a student, I'm literally going to class and taking notes, nothing crazy. We just went in circles over the phone and it was incredibly aggravating. Very disappointed :/ read more

I walked in on a Friday afternoon and there was only 1 person in the chair. The gentleman (I didn't get his name) did an amazing job on my mani-pedi!!!! He took his time when he scrubbed, filed, applied lotion and painted my nails. He also gave me a leg massage with a hot stone as well as a heel treatment! Both my feet and hands look amazing!!!! Everywhere in the city the price of mani-pedi's increased by at least $5 dollars but this service is worth it!!!! I will definitely be returning (on a slow day)! read more

My go to nail salon in Southie. Always professional and out within or exactly an hour with a gel removal mani and pedi.

Had a lady do my nails, they look busted as fuck. Asked her to fix a crooked nail and she argued with me about it until she finally attempted, just making it worse. My friends nails however look great, they were done by the guy there. Wouldn't recommend this place at all, they were really rude and charged way more than what was initially discussed. She was also super rough with my nails and hurt me a few times due to her carelessness. read more

Excellent manicure. I have very short, weak nails because I am guilty of biting them. This makes them hard to work with. Nevertheless the manicurist did a great job preserving some length and shaping them. My skin didn't break at all even though I came in with very irritated cuticles (from the biting). They look great. I highly recommend this place. read more

I gave this salon a higher rating in the past when Henry did my gel mani, but since I've been getting dip I don't see Henry anymore. Recently the nail tech, Nancy who seems to be the only one who does dip nails (aside from the owner) decided to tell me that she's not going to be doing my nails anymore. I told her so you're not doing my nails anymore because I tell you how I want them done? She replied yes, you tell me you don't want them thick you don't want this or that. Ummmm hello, that's how this works! She said this after I told her she missed a spot and I kept looking at my nails because she didn't drill them down smoothly. It was bumpy so was I suppose to walk around with nails like that? Excuse me for speaking up. Even before this happened I realized that Nancy does not take criticism well at all. Before I told her how I want my nails to be in the previous sessions, I would be extremely careful how I said it so she's not upset with me because I have noticed in the past she didn't like to hear any criticism. I am not going to walk out of the salon with nails I am not satisfied with so yes of course I'm going to tell you how I want them done. I am paying for this service. Speaking of service, overall their customer service is not great. I felt uncomfortable the way they mistreated customers while I was there. Feel free to go to Nancy just keep your comments to yourself and hope for the best because girlfriend does not care about how you feel or what you think. The salon does not care if they drop customers either. read more

I'm really disappointed that I spent a lot of money on dip nails and what was supposed to be simple french tips, came out to look like an amateur did my nails. Their window advertises all these fancy, intricate, complicated nails and it's all false. Also, the technician was incredibly rude, rough on my nails and nail bed and would give me dirty looks constantly. Furthermore, no effort was made to match the base coat with my skin tone and I got a generic pink that makes my hands look like an aliens. Do not go here. There are many nail places in Southie that will treat you better and give you good value for your money. read more

The staff are amazing. The place is very clean and follows covid guidelines. The pedicures are amazingggggg and they do great nail work.

I have been a regular here since moving to Dorchester in October, but have decided to stop coming. The salon is small and clean, definitely not glamorous by any means, but the cheapest gel in the area made it worth it. I brought my friend a few weeks ago and they butchered her manicure, with her swearing to never go back. I went back one more time after her, and was rushed becuase they clearly wanted to pay more attention to a customer who came in with fancy nails and wanted them redone (more $!). I've never been shoved through a salon so quickly, with the woman doing my nails so carelessly and quick it was a miracle she didn't actually hurt me considering she was barely looking. A few days later, guess what's already peeling off! And on top of all this, they raised the prices to the same shops in the area. Done with this salon, definitely could go somewhere else for better treatment for the same price read more

Amazing experience, very attentive and really paid attention to details when doing my pedicure. Will definitely be back

I've been coming to this salon for years I love the pedicure service, however the owners attitude is horrible. I'm leaving for a trip, I asked her how much for a full set she proceeded to tell me what I think is short is actually long. Then I asked can she show me she stated no I'm busy I have customers. Attitude horrible I been coming here for 6 years. This will be my last time ! read more
