Dip nails
Sandra N.

Came here with an appointment I made online, but ended up feeling like a walk in instead. I decided to do dip and they did a good job! It's a little misshaped in some areas, but is still holding up well! 2 weeks in and I haven't had any issues!

I had some really high hopes coming here on Friday afternoon after all of the good reviews. I came at 3pm for my appointment for a gel mani and regular pedi. The pedicure was fine, just wish that my lady had made sure all of my toes were evenly cut. It was clean and I enjoyed the hot towel and the hot rocks since I'm always on my feet for work. The manicure was probably one of the worst experiences I've had. I had asked her to file my nails to a square shape because I didn't want them too short, but she ends up cutting majority of my nails. She had made all of my nails different lengths which I brushed off because I was thinking maybe it's not TOO noticeable. I'm usually not one to say much, especially since the place was busy due to graduation, but even that, there's no excuse to rush and be aggressive to a paying customer. She paints my nails but doesn't coat them to the edges. I'm more upset at my manicure experience because I noticed the night of at home that my nails were already chipping and turning yellow!! That just means that the top coat is old and the paint as well. This just makes me super sad since my nails are short, stubby, and I paid/ tipped too much for such a horrible manicure. And I got my nails done for a special event coming up this week. I just have to forget that I even have a manicure LOL

Liquid gel

I'm obsessed! Kathy did such a beautiful job on my nails! She took so much time to do them so neatly and asked me if I approved the colors on everything before picking. I'm so happy! These are liquid gel.

update: The salon reached out to me and offered to redo my nails for free and the manicure turned out so so pretty!! They even fixed my short nail free of charge. The french tips are so nice and clean and I love how it turned out! Adriana was very kind and made sure that after every step I was satisfied with how the nails were turning out. Thank you so much to the salon for taking your time to reach out and fix my nails, I truly appreciate it.

I had an appt today at 10 AM for a Pedi and gel mani. Pedi: Everything was going well with the pedicure until she started to paint my toes. (When painting white toes you have to be very particular.) after observing her work I noticed my nails weren't painted completely. The edges of my toes were left unpainted. I pointed it out and she attempted to fix it by painting over it. She then decided to redo them. The job was better than the first time but still not worth the price for the job. Gel Mani: Since I wasn't 100% happy with my feet I decided that I was going to skip out on my mani to not be disappointed. The lady that did my feet told me someone else would do my mani for me. I decided to give that person the benefit of doubt and went for it. To say the least: my Nails look like I painted them. There's no shine and there are bumps on my thumb. They do not look professional at all. I should've listened to my intuition and not gotten my hands done. I'm not happy with the work of the salon and will not be returning. UPDATE: I called to request a refund and the owner stated she was unable to do that because it wouldn't be fair to her workers since they dedicated time doing my nails. I would say it's unfair for me to have to pay for something I'm not happy with and that doesn't look good.

I've been getting my nails done by Adriana since the beginning of last year and I will not be going anywhere else anytime soon! She has always been the best at what she does. All you need is a photo and she will be able to replicate the design down to most intricate details! The photos below consists of some (out of my) beautiful nail designs that Adriana has done for me, and just take a look for yourself! Many of these especially the Charlie Brown set was all hand-drawn by Adriana! The most recent one I got done is the first two pictures in their newly opened shop! Sooooo happy with my experience. The shop is also so beautiful and clean! Everyone, this is not a drill. Go and try for yourself. Any designs is possible with Adriana. Any.

I wish I could give more than 5 stars!! Look no further, this is THE best nail salon. Adriana has been doing my nails for over a year and she never disappoints. Whether you have something in mind or need some creative ideas, her work is incredible. My nails last over three weeks and the only reason I get them done again is that my nails grew out too much. Her work is exceptional and efficient. She is truly an artist!! If you want your nails to look great, and to have an overall great experience at a nail salon... this is the place for you!

Adriana reached out to fix my nails and she did just that! I'm now in love with my nails and they're exactly how I like. This will now be my go to nail salon in Boston. The customer service alone is top tier. First time here and I really wanted to love it. I had an appointment and once I arrived they were able to get started right away. I had Apres Gel so they started by soaking my nails and prepping my nails for a gel manicure. I don't believe they removed all of the previous gel because my nail beds were very uneven. Then they started with my gel manicure and I requested white which can be a little difficult to apply. These pictures were taken as soon as I walked out. Bumps and air bubbles on half of my nails and the "clear" coat that was applied made the white look almost grayish. Cost over $50 for this and Im going to have to get them redone. The salon was very clean and the workers were extremely nice. I expected a lot better quality of work based on other reviews.

Adrianna killed it again! I got the dip manicure with gel design. I was back and forth on designs and how I wanted the snow flakes to appear, so I let her choose and she did amazing. She also recommended the light pink shimmer base coat which I didn't even think of. She filed my nails to the shape I wanted asking along the way if I like them. I'm always so pleased with her nail care and how the designs turn out!!

I am incredibly disappointed. I walked into the establishment, it was very very nice and clean. I expected it to come with great service and great work and unfortunately neither occurred. My nails were 85 dollars and i think they are the worst and most expensive set i've had yet. She didn't trim my cuticles, my nails are rough and textured, they are incredibly thin, and i spent 85 dollars on horrible service. This is 5 hours since they've been done incredibly disappointing Hi there, Unfortunately I felt as if I couldn't say anything because the first time i did I was made to feel embarrassed and like I didn't know what I was talking about. For a 70 dollar service (extra 15 for chrome) I would 100% think cuticle trimming was included. It's not even about the cuticles, she left powder all over my nail beds and just told me I was done. I spoke up once about the shape.

quoted 55 and was charged 73 for gel that I didn't ask for and long length even though they basically cut off the entire length I wanted to mid size. Crooked even after I pointed out that two nails were crooked and they said they weren't. Initially different lengths I filed two nails when I got home. They redid two nails due to debris under the polish and im the one who had to ask for them to. I usually go to southie nail bar and that's where I'll stay from now on.

YOU HAVE TO GO HERE!!! I promise you once you get your nails done with her, you will be HOOK! Trust me. I have been getting my nails done since I was 15 years old. No one does it better. Not to mention the creativity and the talent! She gets my shape on point!! No one can do my perfect shaping like her. I don't even have to tell her. She knows! She can do any design and shape. But most importantly, my nails last forever; usually nails last up to 3-4 weeks until it starts lifting or breaking since it gets too long but girl, my nails last the whole pandemic! With our past situation/environment, I needed her! Getting my nails done brightens up my week and is the one thing I look forward to after the pandemic. She is a beautiful person, kind, understanding, and most of all, my "nail" fairy godmother. I can't wait to come to her new shop and see what she has in store! I know it is going to be amazing!

Gel mani

I moved to Boston from NYC and was looking for my go to nail spot. I tried a bunch but this is it!! All of the technicians are excellent. It's very clean (unlike many other nail salons I've found). They are friendly and extremely accommodating. If you are unsatisfied , the owner Adriana will be sure to correct the issue to make it right. Highly recommend :)

Hi! I tried calling your number to book an appointment but it seems to be a wrong number. Did you guys change your number? If so, how can I contact you via call?

Hi we did not change our number. Did you call during business hours? Also you can book your appointments online as well at www.thenailstudio215.com

Hi! I attempted to book an appointment online but did not see the option for Gel X. You guys were recommended to me bc I was looking for a good place that does Gel X. Do you…

Hi, we do not offer Gel X, but we do offer liquid gel which can be filled in every few weeks.

Hello! Do you do polygel nails? And if so what is the price?

Hi we do not offer polygel.

Is it possible to like change the chosen options after reservations or do we just let you know when we go in?

Hi Melissa, I believe so, or you can give us a call and change it. Depends on the service if it’s a add on then you can let us know once you arrive. If it’s a whole different service please let us know ahead of time.

Thank you very much for your response I appreciate, which one do you recommend out off them?

I recommend acrylics with tips, but I could tell you better once I see your nails.

Hi, I hope all is well What's the difference between the gel full set nails and the SCULPTURE FULL…

Hi Dalal, a gel full set is a acrylic powder over plastic tips and we put gel on top. A sculpture full set is when you put acrylics on your nails using a form to build out the length instead of using tips. Also there is another form of extensions,… Read more

I'm always so happy with my nails and they last so long (6 weeks total). I will continue to come here and bring my roommates and friends who get their nails done!

I think this salon is elite and would highly recommend as they do an amazing job. I got both a russian gel manicure (Yanna - color: natural, paid $110) and pedicure (Anna - $135) and the quality is amazing, my cuticles are so clean but they do a really good job in making sure it's not invasive (I've had some bad experiences where they are super invasive and have gotten painful, red and swollen cuticles). Another thing that I wanted to mention is that when they remove previous gel, they are so experienced in making sure not to buff too much. Sometimes, at other salons, I've experienced alot of pain due to the heat spike when curing because of this but had zero pain today which I absolutely loved. They take great care throughout the service and are extremely detailed oriented. I've never had a better quality service and will definitely be a regular customer here. The salon itself is so cute and girly, everything is pink, well-designed and super clean, I feel like a princess. If you're on the fence, definitely do it, you won't regret it. The glazing is completely unsponsored or solicited, I just wanted to rave about a really great experience.

I was able to see all 3 family members in action together at the shop while trying to resolve my issue with these horrific nails. Thank you Kathy for my refund and understanding. On the day of my appointment I was 1 of 2 black females getting our nails done the other black woman's nail station was right next to mine and all the other customers were white. My issue was quality of work and the other black woman's issues were quality of work and pricing ( they kept changing the prices on her) I am not sure if this was a racial discrimination or male chauvinism, but 2 things can be true at the same time. Like I said the owner/mother/wife Kathy was awesome and I wish I had only had my experience with her but unfortunately I was met with the 2 idiots. My advice to Kathy was to REMOVE the son from the reception role and NEVER introduce the husband to customers again. Thank you
