I guess if they add a + after the price, they can charge anything they want.

be aware: I called this salon and ask the prices beforehand. Man on the phone said a fill-in is $43 with gel color and the ombré design is $15 & no additional charges for cutting down. That would be a total of $58. After my nails were done, he shows he a screen for $88. Picture of the breakdown posted. Surpise fees added on. I then decided to pay by card and the screen changes again to $91.34. without saying anything, a new fee for using a card. My nails would not even be considered long but I was charged for "Large" full-in and extra to shape it after the cut-down. This is terrible business practice and this is why nail salons are getting a bad reputation.

This was my first time as this establishment. The atmosphere is friendly and music is fun. I was so relaxed I could have fallen asleep! Tatiana did my nails and I am thrilled with the results. Definitely a must, for anyone looking for a relaxing experience with top notch results!

I'm new to Middletown so I looked through tons of Nail Salon reviews before picking where to go. I ended up choosing to visit the Nail Bar for a mani and pedi..I was greeted with smiles and kindness, I knew for sure I wanted to return! Today was my second visit and I still love the environment and energy the nail salon has! Every Latino in Middletown should visit, it was nice to meet nail artist that can speak Spanish as well! (: If you guys don't know who to book, personally I would book Leydi specifically for Pedicures and Tatianna specifically for Manicures 100% !!! Here is the picture of the manicure (Jenny T.) AKA. Tatianna" gave me

What I asked for
Stephanie M.

Let me start off by saying that I had no intentions of writing this review with as low of a star. However, I feel it's necessary in the event this happens to another person. I went to this nail salon after I saw a co-worker nails and thought their design and nails were really nice. She had only a gel manicure. I asked my co-worker who did her nails and she said Monica. I booked an appointment with Monica on 6/25. When I arrived the location was neat organized and clean. She began doing my nails, she was nice, professional and I barely had to wait to be seen. However, as she progressed doing my nails I knew I was not going to like them they were really thick, did not look natural at all and some were crooked. In addition, she did my left thumb 3 times because the gel kept lifting from my nail, completely. I have never experienced this and I have been doing my nails since I was 16, I'm 34 for reference. Her coworker asked if this has ever happened to me as if it was an issue with me and not with the technician or materials! Nonetheless, I already decided to move forward and just not return. Once Monica got to painting my nails the nails looked worse, she put 3 coats of polish, which made them look even thicker. I just wanted to leave at this point but I had also scheduled a pedicure. The pedicure was mediocre. I guess Monica could tell I was unhappy and I had pointed out the gel polish on my right thumb was also lifting, I have never seen that before either. She asked if she could do the polish over because she too didn't like how they turned out. Initially I said no because I was there since 4:45 and it was almost 7, but later agreed. After, redoing the polish and filing down the gel I was okay with them. But didn't f get at what I wanted and was there for 3 hours. The very next day while out shopping I looked down only to see another nail completely gone! At this point the salon was closed. I called the following morning and while on the phone 2 other nail are visibly lifted and came right off! The male on the phone stated that Monica informed him that it may be a concern the day I got my nails done and to come in to have them fixed. Through the day more came off and I literally could just pull the get apart. I have had press on nails that lasted longer that these nails. I called back and requested a refund because at this point I don't want anyone there touching my nails. Only to be given a return phone call stating that in order to get a full refund I have to go in person and have the nails removed! What nails?! They were all gone! I'm still awaiting to hear from the owner who I requested to speak to directly. Please see photos, I can't make this up! Update: I spoke with the owner to again try to place blame on my fingernails and the proceed to only offer 50% refund!!!! Did mention these nails last less than 24 hours! Then after going back and forth she offered for another technician to do my nails "free of charge" which I don't know how it's free of charge if I'm not getting a full refund. I for obvious reasons declined! I rather not deal with horrible customer service or waste my time there again. All the Owner had to say was that she told her employees if they were not happy with their work to not continue doing the work so no one's time is wasted and then proceeded to let me know they have never had any issues with anyone else. That great but clearly they have with me!

Great Nail Spa and even greater Nail Techs. Monica is amazing very patient and attentive. Staff always offer water and ask if there's anything further they could do to make you feel comfortable and have a great experience.

Leydi did a fabulous job! I'm obsessed! She did perfect butterfly wings!

When I walked in I was greeted by the receptionist . Leydi did my nails and she was incredible! Everyone was very helpful. I will definitely be returning!

I went for a quick trip to upstate NY over Presidents weekend to visit my family. My sister and I decided to get a mani/pedi since my nails were atrocious. The service that I received was horrendous. It was as if the person who did my nails had zero experience and I was their first client. I expressed my disservice to the manager and they agreed my nails and toes were done poorly and they told me I could pay $20 for the service (original price $38). They offered to repaint my nails but I didn't have time to redo my nails as this was a short trip and wanted to spend time with my family. The fact that they still made me pay was incredulous. If I had a nail salon, I would NEVER allow a customer to leave unhappy. I have no qualms paying but they were insistent that I pay for a service that I was unhappy with & that didn't sit right with me. I have no idea how this business has the positive reviews they do. I am extremely disappointed. My mom and sister are avid customers and because of this incident they will not be returning. My 18 year old brother can paint my nails better.

Love this place. Usually have to go into city for decent manicure and full set but this place is wonderful! Definitely recommend, Maritza get it right each time.

I gotta say everything and everyone here is amazing. All the points I made in my first review still hold true. The quality of work. The cleanliness of the spa. The great attitude and teamwork that you see. it's been consistent quality and professionalism. If there's an issue with anything they will take the time to find a solution. This All Female Team and Female owned business should have no problem being a staple in this area for years to come. It's a Great Place with even Better People.

Amazing Place! I have been coming here for years. The staff is super friendly, by far one of the cleanest nail salon! I love how Angela does my nails and always last until my next return. I highly recommend.

This is my favorite place in middletown to get my nails done. It's quiet , clean, and everyone is friendly. They make it easy to book right online. Highly recommend but also make an appointment ahead of time if you're going on a weekend.

I'm very picky when choosing a salon. Just recently I was traveling back to Brooklyn to see my nail…read moretech but the commute was a lot so I figured I'd try a place nearby. Initially, I wasn't going to give this place a chance due to the not so great reviews but figured I'd try them out. The first nail tech I had was Hao, but when he was unavailable he recommended I check out Sam. They're both good. Sam is ALWAYS up for a challenge & keeps me happy when I want my crazy designs. My husband also likes for her to do his gel manicures. The spa pedicures could def be longer, & at times I feel like the regular pedicures are rushed but overall it's a fun experience getting serviced here. You just have to choose your tech carefully, everyone's work is different. I haven't had any real complaints until this week. I called the store to ask their closing time & was told 8pm. On several occasions while there late, customers walk in & are still able to get a quick service done which is why I walked in. Two things that rubbed me the wrong way about this experience.. 1) The woman who answered the phone picked up & said "hello.. so I asked "is this Oc Nail? She replied yes. You should never, ever answer a business phone line this way; it's very unprofessional. 2) Upon arriving at the store a little after 7:30pm after a 30 min drive I encountered the woman who answered the phone & explained that I need a fill-in or one nail repaired. I was told they're closed, they took the last person @ 7:30pm. I asked if my nail could be repaired, again was told there's no one to repair it. I stressed my concerns to her about how she answered the phone & knowing what to say & what not to say because you don't know if you're speaking to an existing customer, a new customer or possibly someone looking to walk in for a quick service.. people are human, things often come up @ the last min, you have to expect any & all circumstances. I spoke to the owner & she also agreed with the lady so according to them I was in the wrong one & should never feel like that as a customer. My frustration stems from the lack of communication. Normally, another girl answers the phone. She always respectful, knows what to say & ask when customers call...her customer service is top notch. At any establishment, an owner is set to a high standard while ensuring their customers are satisfied. I'm usually satisfied with the service but wasn't satisfied with the way things were handled. Overall the business has a lot of potential, the owner's attention to detail is on point & they're work is good.. they just have to do better with communication.

I had the absolute worst experience at this nail salon, she completely rushed through my set and…read morehad an attitude when I tried to correct her. I got my nails done yesterday and it looks like I got my nails done 3 weeks ago. She didn't take her time or listened to what I wanted

Well that turned out horribly. First off they sat my sister down with someone who does gel when she asked for acrylic. First red flag. Then they started cutting her nails shorter when she told them to stop cutting them she didn't want them short they just kept going. Then the acrylic person came over and got it all over her skin which if you know anything about acrylic is bad because if you repeatedly get it on your skin you can develop and allergic reaction to it and you can't get acrylic done ever again. It was so janky that they painted it pink. You don't do that with acrylic my sister was like ok just stop this isn't what I want I'm leaving. Not only did they charge her 39 dollars for a horrible job they tried to charge her more for color even though the color they used was to fix their mistakes. She wanted a French tip and instead she came out crying because of how badly they treated her. They were rude and my father had to call just so they would take off the color charge. Instead of a fun experience and be excited for prom my little sister is so sad. I went back in to ask for my money back and I was nice but stern. They said no we don't do refunds and he tried to straight up lie to me about what happened and he was rude to me too. To the people who were getting their nails done in there who didn't stand up for her shame on you for watching and judging. How would you feel if that happened to you. To the people who work there where do you get off on being horrible to other people and not even being kind. You not only lost her business but my mother who comes in every two weeks. Don't ever come here unless you want to be treated like crap.

Linda, the manicurist who attended to me, went out of her way to do a good job, gently cleaning my cuticles, applying the polish with impeccable technique, and working carefully. I fell asleep while she massaged my feet and hands. Everything seemed perfect; I left a good tip and left happy. But it was only 24 hours before the bad stuff appeared and ruined my experience. Linda's excellent work was completely ruined by the low-quality polish they offer there. That evening, while traveling to Albany for dinner with my husband, I noticed one of my nails was getting damaged, but I didn't pay much attention to it. The next day, we attended a breakfast hosted by my husband's company, which was attended by his bosses, colleagues, and their spouses. During breakfast, I noticed that the polish on all my nails was starting to chip. I had to hide my fingers while I ate to hide my embarrassment. My recommendation: the business should invest in better quality nail polish. I, for one, would return just for Linda's excellent service, but I would bring my own polish.
