Now that we are emerging on the other side of Covid I have been heading back out for manicures again. I've switch up and am now getting gel manicures. The quality provided at this salon has not declined at all. The last time I went in my nails held up for five weeks (I only lost one nail a couple days before I was heading back to get them redone). The nail art I got the last time was great as well. Nalee is amazing!
I am absolutely in love with Sweety Salon and the entire staff. Everyone does amazing work and takes care of your nails. The salon is extremely clean and well ventilated. I know they use high quality products and gel because my nails last 1 month+ without any chipping, despite always getting complicated nail art which requires multiple coatings of gel. I started going to the salon a few months ago and I have experienced tremendous nail growth without any damage to my natural nails. I usually see Nalee or Sunny for my monthly honey gel + complicated nail art. Nalee and Sunny are two of the nicest nail techs and people, in general. They take their time with removing and re-adding gel. I always provide such extra nail art designs, but somehow they always come through and exceed my expectations. I absolutely like them both and get excited whenever it's time to get my nails done. Sue, the owner I believe, is also so kind and accommodating! The price is aligned with the quality and service provided. I always try to tip well because of the attention to detail. I'm not the biggest fan of the dry pedicure, but they do offer this service and it's good. My pedicures don't always last as long as I'd like them to, but they still do a good job given it is dry v. Wet.
I came to the salon with a reservation of dip powder gel ($70) and was told that unless my nails were broken/fragile, it'd be better for me to get normal gel manicure. So I followed their recommendation and agreed to it. But instead of charging the gel price ($60) I was charged the full $70. I knew it was their policy to charge the full price if I changed my mind, but this change was actually recommended by the nail technician! Although they did my nails nicely, I feel defrauded.
Elina did a Japanese gel on my nails with ombré and glitter. I kept my nails natural and did not opt for extensions. I really love the result! They are so beautiful. Elina did an excellent job of replicating the photo I showed her for inspiration. She was also very gentle with my nails and was easy to talk to. I would definitely recommend this salon!
Sweety has been my nail salon for almost 3 full years! I've never had a complaint about my nails. My gel nails easily last 5 weeks with zero to minimal chips. I usually take a few months of break just to let my nails breathe but I always come back. I had a Harry Potter design when I went to universal studios (by nahlee who I love talking to) and amazing 9D cats eye nails (literally eye catching- people would just stare at my nails). When the owner is in, she always knows who I am and asks how law school is which is such a nice feeling that she remembers who I am :) I got a gel manicure right before quarantine so I'm growing it out. But Nahlee did an amazing job and after 5 weeks I have no chips or lifting! Attaching more recent nail pics
I used to love Sweety but I guess I can't do so anymore. Jenna, who used to be my technician is not here anymore. I would state the point of my long review here: do not book with Kelly!!!! Be aware many of talented Sweety techs went back to Korea or left the city. Pretty disappointed how they've changed over the past year while they've been through Covid. Since I moved out to Jersey from NYC during the pandemic, visiting Sweety was also a while for me, also I spent an hour to get to Sweety. I had an appointment with Kelly and I showed her the reference pic which required 3d thumb nails and all different colors for the rest of 4 nails each hand. They charged $2 per extra colors, ok I didn't think it's good but it was acceptable. I remember they said they charge $15 for 3d nails so I was like ok. But Kelly simply messed up coloring the 3d thumbs and I didn't want to pay for poor nails. Who wants to waste their money? She tried to place chain around the edge of thumb nails but it was shorter than it was supposed to be so didn't fully cover the edge and looked weird. I told her the way I wanted to be fixed and she tried few times, then made kind of tired face. Then she said "I can just remove if you don't like your thumbs", ok fine so i said yes please. Then she said "if you are free tomorrow I can finish your thumbs tomorrow" ......????what you saying? If I say no I'm not free tomorrow then were you just gonna kick me out even though your work is not done? Apparently she said that because she was worried about the next appointment customers who were waiting next to me, but yes I'm also a customer who pays and I still think she said pretty dumb thing to me to get the next customers. The rest of work was also pretty mess. I changed my mind to place one charms each on my thumbs, usually Sweety staffs ask me on which part of the nail I'd like to put it. Kelly? Nah this lady didn't ask me anything. Just on the middle, no communication. She didn't ask any of my opinion, she just rushed, applied top coat and just finished! I paid $95 including tips (I really didn't want to tip her but yeh it's not for the outcome, it's for her time) so it def was not cheap nails but what I experienced was HORRIBLE. If she didn't mess up the 3d nails in the first place, she didn't need to tell me the dumb thing and I didn't need to see her rushing to get her next customer. Shitty experience ever. Adios Sweety, as long as Kelly works there I would not be back ever again.
I had an awesome experience with Sweety Nails: fast, cozy, glorious and long-lasting result! I used to the fact that shellac on my nails chips in 5-9 days. Whatever Japanese brand they are using in Sweety Nails, I am going to ask for it again!!!!! My nails perfectly lasted me for over 2 weeks, with me washing the dishes, hiking, cooking, and climbing through the forest. Yet, I strongly suggest to go there only by appointment. They are extremely busy. The place was full in the middle of the day on Monday. And it might be a bit more pricy than other places. But their work cost every single penny!!! Photo - my nails after 2 weeks.
After having gone to another nail salon that did a terrible job doing my acrylic extensions, I called Sweety Nails and they were able to squeeze me in last minute. I called and got an idea of how much I would be paying for removing my set and getting a new one. The total came out to 140 but honestly was worth every penny . The nail technician Rina was nothing but pleasant and accommodating. Rina took her time perfecting my extensions and even though I often tensed my hand making it difficult for her to do her job she was always nice to point it out. She was so patient and professional, wouldn't ask for anyone better. If you're looking for a spot to become a regular look no more, this is your spot!
Great service and beautiful designs. Everything is reaching my expectations. A little pricey but worth it. Recommend!
This is for my 9/18 visit in the new location. I moved to Brooklyn in February and luckily found this place pretty quickly and really loved the time and detail they took in doing your nails. I don't want to take that away from them, they are great at doing nails and designs.... most of the time. I was very disappointed in my last visit. I text at 10am to make an appointment. I was confirmed for 3:30 which was prefect. I showed up at 3:28 and there was 1 girl getting just started, another what looked to be finishing up and another getting a pedi. The ladies that work there said hi and I took a seat to wait.... and wait... and wait. Not for 15 mins, not 30 but an hour! Not once was I acknowledged to say sorry or reschedule, nothing. The only reason I stayed is because 1. I had paid for the parking so I would have paid for nothing to just leave. 2. They took me after 45mins to wrap my nails in foil to get my old gel off. Which kind of traps you into staying. So one of the ladies does the foil on my nails after wrapping the other girl's nails and then goes back to her. So again I'm just sitting waiting until another 15 mins go by, we are at the hour mark now 4:30. At this point the girl getting the pedi is done and moved on to getting a mani. And the girl getting the design is still getting the design (!) and just laughing it up joking, while I have been waiting and wasting my time. Finally I get seen, only to be told that she will start me off and one of the other girls is going to finish my nails. Wait, what? At this I ask how much longer am I going to wait because you know it's been over an hour. She looks up and just gives me a look and just makes huh noise and says not much longer. Then I say you know I could have been texted to say they were running behind and again she really doesn't say anything, just 'oh well you know' ad trails off. Another thing I really disliked: I was asked if I wanted to cut my nails, I have long talon nails (pointy), I said half and to keep the shape. She does not file, she cuts the lazy way in my opinion when they cut on the sides. I always felt like it makes the nails feel rough and thin. And she cut way too much length off. It was definitely more the half. She did ask if I liked the shape, I didn't but I said yes because honestly I was so sad at this point and didn't think they would actually care. So she hurriedly cuts, shapes and sort of files my nails while making small talk ONLY to bring up that she was an hour late because the customer before me couldn't decide what design she wanted and that she had been a customer for 5 years and she thought she had scheduled enough time in- between us.... Are you serious??? So because I have only been going for 7 months I deserve to have sat there for over an hour? I followed them from their midtown location to the Lower east side back to midtown and I live in Brooklyn so basically you told me I don't matter as a customer. And it's not like I'm some cheap customer either I have spent a minimum of 50-100 on my nails there before. She does my nail polish, I had black nail polish on, I don't think it was taken off properly. You actually see a streak of it still on my thump nails over the red. And the kicker, she didn't finish my nails! The lady who put foils on finished the top coat because another customer walked in and she went to start her. Must have been another 5 year customer. So I got there at 3:30 and left at 5:15, for a 30 min gel manicure. Yup you read that right I spent almost 2 hours for only to have 30 mins of actual work done. My mani was 35, my parking was 34. Again there was no sorry we made you wait, no discount, nothing. It was a waste of time and money and I felt so disrespected and unhappy with my nails. I walked out of there not wanting to return.
This was my first visit. Hanna did an amazing job! She did my nails very carefully. Definitely will go back every 2 weeks for the refills
This is a cute nail salon! Stumbled across it online and decided to go. I got a dry pedi and a mani. The service was great, but the quality of the polish is not so great. I got my nails done on Friday (almost 3 days) and my nail polish is chipping from my mani - the pedicure polish is holding up nicely. If I were to return, I'd try the gel mani - but I never paid for a manicure and it not last one week - this polish barely made it.
I've been getting my nails done since I was two. Lol. This is by far the most consistent nail salon I've ever been to. Started with them a few months ago. I haven't had any issues - even when I was in a rush and had to ask that she hustle. I've had different techs and everyone's good. I've side eyed their process because they all have their own but I've been pleased every single time. And it lasts. My nails are very long for the first time without fillers or extensions. No attitudes. No bad vibes. No disputes. It's not a fancy place and that works best for me. Clientele is quiet. (Lets all be respectful and keep it that way) Techs are quiet and hardworking. Good price. Great service. I mean what else can you ask for!?

Came in for a Japanese mani and it was a great experience! They removed my old gel with an efile and then soaked off the rest after before filling down the cuticles and shaping my nails into the perfect oval shape. Usually I get nervous when I see the efile come out but I'm at ease here since they are so careful and meticulous with their work, never experienced any burning sensation on my nail bed. My nails were checked between each coat to make sure the edges and color were even. The lotion and paraffin wax were soothing for my dry skin. The resulting mani was pristine and I'll keep coming back! read more

Excellent service. I called and they were ready to take me as a walk-in within 5 minutes. I have short nails and got the classic gel manicure (a completely reasonable rate and is discounted when paying in cash). I love the way they look, will definitely be a returning customer! read more
I absolutely do not recommend this spot, I always get hard gel, Aka Uv gel and I pay a maximum of $70-$80 when it's for a fresh set and about $55-$65 for a refill. I was leaving on vacation and my lady had a family emergency so I was desperate to find a place, I found this spot on Yelp and contacted them for a refill. I was directed to their app and saw that it was $110 for a fill in! $110?!! And let's be clear, I do not add color to my gel nails because I like the natural look so all that's needed is a top gel coat. But let's not forget I was leaving the country on vacation and I was desperate to get them fixed, I knew I was being robbed but I had to fix my nails. I got to the salon and it's the smallest studio I've ever seen with three tables, and no window. Claustrophobic. Sue was my technician and upon getting there she says- "I just want to tell you it's $120 and not $110 like you saw" I was flabbergasted and responded- "you're telling me that I have to pay more than $110 because you failed to update your website? I'm confused at this point but what can I do. I say to myself this is a one time thing but the nails better be filed and filled to perfection like it was God himself who did them for that price. My dear yelpers, it was honestly the worst nails I've ever gotten in my life, compared to where I paid $65. Sue refused to place the hard gel close to my cuticles and that would have made them lift quite fast, according to her she's been doing nails for over ten years, and she knows her craft. Im respond that I understand but I've been doing my nails for over 7 years too and since I'm a paying customer I decide how I want my nails to look. After a lot of back and forth with me insisting that I want my moneys worth, / and insisting that she does what the client wants, Sue reluctantly added some more powder to the edge of the nails, but it was quite evident she didn't know what she was doing. Or maybe that is their technique to get clients coming back faster for a refill, and if that's the case that's just wrong. Less than two days later my nails were already lifting and they looked horrible on vacation. I spent over $120 plus tip for a mediocre work and I shall never return here. read more

They have all kinds of colors, glitters, foils, Swarovski stones, and whatever-you-can-imagine available. The technicians here are artists and have the skills to execute pretty much any design you show them. I visited them when I was living in Philadelphia but now that I've moved to Boston, I'm torn that I won't be able to get my nails done here. Aside from the talented staff and ample supply of nail products, I was impressed by the customer service. I was initially confused when they started speaking a foreign language with a diverse group of clientele present, esp with the craziness that's been happening lately. I couldn't help but listen in since I speak the language. When I heard what the technicians were saying, I knew they truly care about their clients. Ex: I was getting chrome nails and stones, so they were talking about how to make it last longer. They made sure to take extra care so that the chrome won't fade and stones won't fall off. At NO EXTRA charge! I travel quite frequently from the east coast and west, which means I usually wait about a month at a time to get a new set of nails. My nails lasted about 2 months! No chips, stones intact. So money. read more

I got my nails done 2 more times after my first and I will continue coming back. I have recommended my clients to go to Sweety nails as they continue complimenting me and ask where. My second time was last month a week before they moved locations. I loved my nails and I told sunny I deal with fabrics and my nails tended to change colors because of it. She picked a top coat that will ensure my pale pink nails to maintain its color and it did for the whole 3 weeks. Today I got it done again at the 34st location. Rina took her time and knew exactly how I wanted my nails decorated on top of designing the nail. I wanted pantone color of 2018, so she mixed 2 calgels to get the color I was happy with. She ensured me and told me I should get calgel instead of powder because of my concerns. I had a bad experience the first time but I trusted her and gave it a go. We also chatted and had small conversations which was great. She was really friendly. Always love a great convo instead of silence while receiving a service. read more

Ok, so I really like the location of this place, it's upstairs inside the ny market on 34th and I decided to get my nails done on my trip here from LA. I initially really did like the way my nails turned out even though the lady didn't get all of my old polish off. Side note, my old polish was a dark green and she didn't do a very thorough job of getting everything off my cuticles and painted over the green that was left on my nails too. The end product was that some of my nails looked dirty due to the leftover residue and looked like I had mold or something on my fingers -_- wasn't happy about that, but it wasn't a big deal after I got home and scraped/cut it off myself. My biggest complaint is that after I took off the polish, there was an indentation in my nails from the tool that was used. Not sure what it's called, but it was like an electric nail filer?? Sorry I'm no expert in the terms but at first I thought it was leftover gel but upon further inspection, the lines I saw were all indented!! I'm so sad that they shaved into my real nails and they are now ruined. Even when I paint over them, you can see the indentation and I need to wait for them to grow out. Please be careful and tell your person not to use that tool on your real nails. I understand if I was getting a pedicure since I've seen that used before on my toes but never ever my manis. This has never happened to me before and honestly, I'll most likely go back to where I normally get my nails done in ny :( read more

Highly recommend! My friend and I walked in to the market without any plans to get our nails done, but their prices were reasonable so we decided to give it a shot. This is my second time at a nail salon and first time getting gel nails and I was pleasantly surprised with the results! Because of my inexperience, I told my nail artist (Sue) to do whatever would make my nails look good, so I let her do whatever she wanted in terms of nail shape. And she did not disappoint! I've had these nails for a little more than three weeks now, and they have yet to chip (and I use my hands quite a lot). read more

So, I was going to leave this alone, but since the extremely UNPROFESSIONAL owner wants to keep posting my IG post on her pages, I will now review this establishment. On February 17, I walked out of Sweety Nails a very happy customer; however, on March 17 it was a whole opposition. I initially went in and paid $70.00 for a FULL SET of SNS tips and and additionally $60.00 for design. I also tipped the staff $20.00 for great service. I was thrilled and referred a few people to them. So of course I would be excited to return. On March 17, I had a very poor experience. I went to get my nails FILLED IN, as I sat down, the girl assigned to my nails begins to tell me my FILL IN would be $90.00. So my question to her was "how is a full in $90.00 when I only paid $70.00 for the set" the owner then chimes in a states they changed the product. She was rude, dismissive and when I asked her if they were providing me with a new set, she kept repeating "we don't do that service any longer" I left highly upset. Fast forward to when I get home. I looked at their IG page and it is clearly stated "SNS-50" the same product I have on my nails, the same product THEY put on. So, I then let my friends and family know on my IG of the horrible experience and PRICE GOUGING that goes on here. The owner "Sunny" then starts commenting on my IG stating "how would you like it if I put this on my page" and so on. Then to top it off, posts me on her personal IG Page and states a lawsuit for defamation will come up in not so many words because I am personally boycotting them. This shows exactly the type of place she has. Tourists and New Yorkers STAY AWAY! I am calling consumer affairs on Monday Morning. I have included pictures as well! The artists are quite talented here; however, it is clear the owner is completely money hungry, which explains why the short leases in the flea markets. STAY AWAY!!!!! Now the definition of defamation states: the act of making untrue statements about another which damages his/her reputation. If the defamatory statement is printed or broadcast over the media it is libel and, if only oral, it is slander. Public figures, including officeholders and candidates, have to show that the defamation was made with malicious intent and was not just fair comment. Damages for slander may be limited to actual (special) damages unless there is malice. Some statements such as an accusation of having committed a crime, having a feared disease or being unable to perform one's occupation are called libel per se or slander per se and can more easily lead to large money awards in court and even punitive damage recovery by the person harmed. Most states provide for a demand for a printed retraction of defamation and only allow a lawsuit if there is no such admission of error. I have not stated anything untrue. I stated what my experience was VERBATIM. And as I looked the business up under the Department of Corporations, nothing in Manhattan comes up, only 2 in Queens. I will be contacting the registered agent from the Whitestone location as well. It's one thing for an owner to speak on this professionally, it's a whole next thing to post an unhappy customer on social media and try to threaten them with legal action about speaking a truth on the experience they received. Now again her update is threatening me with legal action. I also own a small business, and I also have a TEAM of attorneys. I have the constitutional right to speak on ANY experience I have received good or bad, on a platform. Nothing I have stated is untrue or biased. I am an UNHAPPY consumer who you tried to price gouge. And that is a well known business practice in high density tourist areas. And business have been fined and shut down all over manhattan for it. read more

Update: a day later, it one finger chipped but rest is fine. I'm in need of a gel manicure for my bday and upcoming holiday parties. I stumbled upon this cute little shop inside the Broadway market while I was shopping in Soho. I was initially greeted by someone and she was kinda cold when I asked her about the yelp $5 discounts. Then she was surprised that I wanted to do manicure.. I guess they just opened up? So that was an rocky start and got me kinda worried. Luckily the girl who was doing my nails was really sweet. She was detail oriented and made sure nails were the same shape and were painted evenly close to the cuticle. I got the burgundy color and it turned out great. Very happy with my nails.. the price is $30 for the color gel which is not bad at all for new York city. And $25 after the discount which is amazing. I will return again. read more

One start for the color that I really love but the lady did the worst detail ever. But the owner is quite nice and explain details. They overall did better and detailed job for Korean speakers. They didn't know I speak and treat me like they just want to get it done and go home read more

I made an appointment today at their new Rivington location down by Essex. I requested the earliest appointment, but upon arriving there were already 3 others there. Luckily, I took the last seat, but Sue was already with another client. Sunny helped me with my nails and design today. It was absolutely gorgeous!! The design was very simple and elegant, just the way I would like it. Always looking forward to the next design and visit with these amazing girls! Advice: Make sure you book an appointment for this new location and arrive on time! They only have 4 seats available compare to the previous location on Herald Square. read more

I came in for a fill in of extension gel and new color and pedicure gel. Super recommended that you book even a month in advance. Some afternoons and evenings they're incredibly busy and they work well as a team to make sure the customers are attended soon. Jenna and Sue worked in my nails but Jenna did most of the work including pedicure gel. Jenna has got to be one of the most detailed workers and has patience. She was open to helping me find the right pink shade. Love my nails this time, thanKs Jenna!! read more

So well done and completely hassle free. I am a huge fan of detail and consideration when my nails are being done. I'm also afraid of pain and being cut lol so I don't like to go unless I have to. It is my first time here and I had a great experience. I am very content and will be coming back. The lady who accommodated me, Yujin (spelling?), was very kind, had great manners and she did not mind that I changed colors at least 3 times before picking my final one. She was very detailed and gentle. I will definitely be coming back! read more

My sister treated me to my first ever Japanese gel and I am very happy with the results. Sweety salon is by far the best nail salon I've been to! This nail salon is small, comfy, and intimate. Their service is amazing and Kelly is gentle, friendly and very talented! I also love that this salon is clean, masks are worn the entire time, and appointments are required to prevent an influx of clients. I highly recommend this nail salon and hope to see you (the reader) there the next time I stop by. read more
