It's taken me a while to post this and really I still don't know what to say honestly. I saw some pics that impressed me and decided to give the beautician a go, but it was my first and last. The wash was weak; the cut was choppy and the style was horrid. I asked her what her specialty was and she proudly said she could do everything! Well, not that day, and not on my head. She was a very nice lady, but she just isn't what I would call a Stylist. More like the neighborhood, old school beautician that use to give me my shirley temple curls for picture day. read more

My first visit and will not be my last. I researched for a minority owned business and Studio Nicki Spice was one of the top salons mentioned and walk-in was welcome. I was blessed to find this oasis. Yaly was very professional and her kind spirt made my experience amazing . My nails are beautiful. Thank you! read more

This gem is a Black Woman Owned business! Service is impeccable and the quality of the products are top notch!! The owner is generous with her knowledge and even employed a teen over the summer to mentor. No funky chemical smells when you walk through theses doors. read more

Review during Covid I feel sorry about giving only 2 starts during these hard times for small businesses, but my experience wasn't great. The salon is in Bed Stuy and it's really cute: nice furniture and decor, the atmosphere is cozy and relaxing. Once arrived, the staff offered me a complimentary beverage: I felt pampered and it put me in a good mood! Unfortunately, the rest of my experience was so so. The pedicure chairs are actual armchairs: they look very pretty, but they're not very comfortable. Same for the manicure stations: I had to keep an awkward position to allow my technician to reach my hands (I'm a shortie). The pedicure itself was nice: they infuse the water with lemon slices and go through several steps of scrub, massage, hot towel, etc to create a nice experience. But the problem was with the Manicure: my technician went heavy on the nail polish, and in the end it was so thick that it wouldn't dry. I waited for half an hour, and when I went to check on my nails, every time I touched them I got a bump or a smear in the nail polish. I waited longer, but it didn't do much. By the time I got home, the nail polish had completely smudged. When I was waiting for it to dry, the manager noticed it and offered me to come back the next day and get it fixed free of charge. I came back today, and I had to get all of my manicure redone. Even the fingernails that didn't look horrible had smudged. I spent one extra hour to get it fixed, and I'm confused because this has never happened to me with a mani. A different technician did my nails today, and she recommended being careful because nail polish takes 24 hours to dry. I appreciate the advice, but really, any other time in got a Manicure I was able to walk out after 20 minutes without worrying about my nail polish going everywhere. read more

Studio Nicki Spice - Super cute entrance - Nail Salons Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This is my first visit and I'm definitely going back! I was lucky enough to book a same-day appointment and Yaly did such an amazing job with my nails. I love the fact that she did at least 4 coats of nail polish and also went in with a very tiny brush to fill in the sides (top tier work!). She and the ladies were so sweet and the place had a very light, welcoming, and accommodating (all my first-timer questions were answered ha!) atmosphere. Definitely worth the hype and price. I'll be back soon! read more

Studio Nicki Spice - Nail Salons Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I don't even know how to start with us. First of all, it felt like i walked in to paradise. The spot exudes family and protection. As soon as you walk in you will be presented with a hallway and various doors. But each room has a special function. Hair salon, massage chairs and when you walk to the end you walk in to heaven. The nail area. The women were so welcoming. The owner was also there and she was so happy for us to be there. When i tell you this was an experience. My values and ideals lies with buying black so you know i had to check it out with my friend. I got the gel manicure and the card that was put into everything was just fascinating. I had my hand on a cute wooden bowl with sliced lemons soaking up my hands. The products they use are all home made and many black owned products. I am still taken aback from this experience. Definitely a spot i will come to over and over again. Let me tell y'all about the bathroom. The bathroom had the best hand soap and candle scent burning. You can actually buy the candles and Brooklyn tea is sold here too. They legit have a little shop area. So beautiful. We also chose wine as our drink of choice. How they popped out the "black girl magic" McBride sisters wine. I was taken aback how intentional this spot is with everything. read more

Great, great experience at Studio Nicki Spice! i arranged for my sister and mother-in-law to get their nails done last week for a wedding, and the shop went above and beyond to provide them with a relaxing, luxurious experience! From Sasha scheduling the appointment to Nicole confirming the key details, especially as i was unable to accompany the ladies - it ended up being a flawless session and they truly felt pampered. i hope to schedule an appointment for myself in the near future where i'll provide a personal account of my own experience. In the meantime, it means the world to me that the shop provided stellar service to two important ladies in my fam. read more

So many nice things to say about my experience at Studio Nicki Spice! First off I was a brand new customer looking for a black owned salon that would take a same day reservation due to a last minute cancellation by my regular nail tech at another salon. I was frantic and Studio Nicki Spice did everything to move around they're schedule to accommodate me! Super happy about that! Once I arrived everyone and everything was great! The decor, the staff the products used and the all around great customer service was so nice and comforting that I know I'll be back. I have already referred another friend who's looking for Black owned Nail Services to this establishment! Thank you Nicki for saving my life before going out of town! Lol! read more

Took my little there and while he was acting crabby, he really did enjoy the pampering. Yep actually got to talk to the owner and it was really an awesome experience. She explained about the nail dryer and her explanation made perfect sense. This was s my new spot. I'm loving my vegan gel nail. read more

All I can say is WOW. Everything about this salon is amazing, from the service to the decor. It's a very relaxing environment. You're greeted with smiles and offers of a beverage.

I spent my birthday getting beautified at Studio Nicki Spice. I went to get my hair done and decided to treat myself to a much needed pedi. They have an expansive menu for self care treatments ranging manicures to massages and things in between. I got the "Milk & Honey Bath" spa pedicure which boast that it was moisture infused. It was a aromatic milk bath with florals and oils with what I believe was a soothing honey mask which felt like the kiss of 100 angels on my tired little feet, followed by a chocolate mask. It. Was. Divine. And luxurious. And absolutely worth it. Those feet were scrubbed, massaged and rubbed back to life. Thanks to my technician Lulu, who was amazingly attentive as was the entire staff. One by one they all peeked in to see if I was okay. Nicki Spice also came to make sure I was content. 5 Stars and a thumbs up. I'm hooked!!! Happiest of birthdays to me read more

Studio Nicki Spice - Pedicure at last - Nail Salons Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Wonderful experience. Super professional and welcoming staff, and excellent service. The place is impeccable .

Incredible boutique salon experience! I've been to SNS multiple times and have had great service each time. Manicures, pedicure and wax. I'm always offered a refreshment (free with service) and sometimes they have 'cocktail Friday.' I always grab something from the gift shop- candle, tea, or essential oils. I can't recommend this place enough. read more

Got an amazing pedicure with Kimberly. Everyone was so friendly and nice. I will be coming back soon!

Had an amazing afternoon of pampering at SNS. The space was calm and intimate, with quiet technicians that did their work while we relaxed with tea and wine. Manis and pedis were great. Will definitely come back!! read more

Gorgeous, relaxing, and friendly salon! I've never been to a vegan salon and loved my mani pedi!! They have so many offerings that I'm curious to try in the future. I did the milk and honey pedicure which was such a treat. Thanks to Brenda for these lovely nails! Can't wait to come back :) read more

Studio Nicki Spice - Manicure and pedicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This was a lovely experience! There were lots of little touches like lemon slices in the water, a sugar scrub, a coconut oil massage. The whole experience felt really clean, cute and relaxing! read more

Such a great place! The ladies here are so wonderful and friendly! I love the fact that there's no overwhelming chemical smell because it's vegan. I smudged one of my nails while drying and they insisted on fixing it. Also, their Covid precautions are great and it felt very very clean overall read more

It's my mission to buy black and I really wanted to love this salon, however, my experience was not the best. I really appreciated that the tech took her time on my gel mani and pedi, no rush at all, and I like that they used scrubs as part of the treatment. However, she nicked my big toe and it began to bleed and I had to specifically ask for an antiseptic-in addition to dousing my toe in hydrogen peroxide when I got home. The tech also was not very communicative with me, though she talked frequently with her coworkers. (Another tech was very gracious and checked in on me a few times.) It also bothered me that my nail tech wore her mask on her chin, it really defeats the purpose of protecting others and yourself. I'm immunocompromised and still wear two masks. Lastly, when I used the bathroom after my services, let's just say there was a surprise in the bathroom! Not necessarily the fault of the staff, but still not pleasing to the entire experience. I would be open to going back, if to another nail tech. The mani-pedi was mostly good overall. read more

I found the salon on ClassPass, cause I had come credits that I needed to use. I was expecting a regular in and out salon, nothing special. ClassPass hasn't been working properly so my appointment didn't go thru. But they were able to accommodate me. Everyone was so wonderful and the space was very relaxing! It smelled wonderful and it didn't feel like a nail salon; it truly felt like a spa. read more

Great service . Clean space . Nice people . Amazing tea selections offered while being pampered

This salon and spa is everything! Such welcoming kind employees. Kimberly did my nails and she was a true professional and perfectionist. I was so grateful for her hard work and she perfectly replicated my request for shape and color. They have a nice array of products with essential oils and outstanding music. The vibes are immaculate and serene. Highly recommend read more

I sent my mother-in-law and her best friend to this establishment for a prepaid "girls day".

In addition, I can't recall another business I've patronized recently whose staff was as pleasant. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE! I came to Studio Nicki Spice for the first time tonight at the suggestion of a friend. Firstly, the decor is gorge and so comfy! Felt like I was at home! The customers and the employees were equally warm and welcoming! The young lady working with me was very accommodating, patient and very thorough. I love that there are vegan products to choose from and the spa manicure/pedicure options are hand crafted by herbalists. Nicki and Crystal were AMAZING and did their best to make me feel right at home. My first time definitely won't be my last time! read more
