I have been going there for a few years now and always walk away pleased with the whole time there. I agree with most of the reviews here. Definitely worth a try for anyone and SOOO convenient to park as well. It is time for me to go away soon! read more

I had a very disappointing experience here. I came in with my daughter for manicures--mine was a dip and hers was gel. Mine turned out thick and uneven, and her gel manicure chipped the very next day. We originally arrived during a busy time and were told to come back at 6:30. When we did, they rushed through both the manicure and pedicure. If they can't take the time to provide proper service, then why give an appointment at that time? The quality did not reflect the price--we paid nearly $200 including tips, and it was absolutely not worth it. I won't be returning and will be taking my business elsewhere. read more

I have been going to this salon for many many years and they get even better each time I go! Everyone in the salon is so talented and cares so much about their customers. I recently moved to the city and still drive all the way back here because they are just so awesome! Will always love this place and it deserves way more love! read more

Amazing place ! People so welcoming and they give an excellent back massage. It's very clean, smells incredible and everyone is very professional. Will be coming more often ! read more

I Will never go back to this spa again and would never recommend anyone go here. Keep in mind a 6-year-old could do a better job than this. read more

Unique Nails - Worse manicure experience ever - Nail Salons Near Me - Acton, Massachusetts

Went in today for a dip manicure. I wanted a colored French tip and showed the nail tech a picture, which he said was fine but it would be an extra $15. The tips ended up coming out TERRIBLY - the lines were not clean and they were very uneven. The guy fixed them with gel, but only after I pointed out that they did not look good. He still tried to charge me $70, to which I objected, and they gave me a 50% off discount. $35 plus tip is still a lot of money to pay for nails you don't like. The dip itself is bumpy and incredibly thick. The tech didn't ask at any point during the manicure if I liked the shape or style and did not bother looking at the picture I brought. Update: tips have already started to chip and peel after 1 day. Horrible quality. read more

I was a walk in with my bestie we needed pedicures and manicures they were able to accommodate us right away. The Salon was clean and the staff was so friendly. I can't say enough about my service. That back massage with the manicure was worth the price of admission. If I could give them more stars I would. read more

I used to come here all of the time but stopped because it got too busy. I could no longer get a same day appointment. The nail tech I had today did a fantastic job, great attention to detail. It took longer than expected but that was because she also had to keep setting up pedicure seats for others in between. In spite of that, she didn't rush me out of my chair, paid attention to what she was doing, and the results were perfect. I have been going elsewhere for the past year that was newer and more modern looking. The new place is a must to book day before and many times I have not been happy with the experience or the results. Often times the technicians are rushing and barely paying attention to what they are doing. Modern and new isn't always better. read more

Wow! Truly UNIQUE! My pedicure was amazing and my nail tech was sweet and kind. The reflexology technique was relaxing. What makes Unique stand out is the complementary massage! WHAT?!? It was an unexpected delight. The focus on the client is unmatched. Best pedicure I have had in a long time!!! Thank you!!! read more

I've been coming here for a few months and drive 20 minutes to get here because I always love my nails! The massage while drying is obviously an amazing bonus too. Everyone is also so nice always!! read more

I have given this place many tries and they used to be good a few years ago but I have been over charged last 3 times and will no longer go. read more

Wow! I am so impressed by this salon! I came in for an appointment and I was a walk-in. I was relieved that I noticed the employees taking Covid precautions seriously. Temperatures taken upon arrival and asked to sanitize hands before touching anything. The inside is modern and aesthetically pleasing, also very clean. My nail tech was owner Mark who was very kind and professional. I had a very badly broken nail that was a high break halfway up my nail and he was very gentle when taking off the dip I had on. He also put on new tips and the dip job was just perfect. So happy I finally found an amazing new salon in my area since I just moved nearby. This is my new go to place! Thank you for your incredible service and I will definitely recommend! read more

I've gotten my nails done here several times and they've turned out wonderful, but this experience disappointed me. I asked for my nails to be filed in a square shape and my manicurist first trimmed them unevenly and then filed them unevenly, so now my nails are uneven. Gel manicures usually last 3 weeks for me but my nails started chipping after 4 days. Overall, I feel like I wasted my money and will not be coming back. read more

Very nice folks. Full service - even a little back massage while you wait for your nails to dry!

Came here for part of my bridal shower celebration and we were so pleased with the service and overall experience. The inside was nice and clean, the chairs were comfy .They let us bring champagne and cupcakes .All six girls in my party were work on simultaneously so we all finished around the same time - no waiting around. The manicure and pedicure were top notch .I've had hundreds of manicures they do a QUALITY job here. I got a hot wax dip which was amazing and along with the massages.The technicians were friendly and made us all feel very welcome. I will definitely be back! read more

Always a great experience! Gel nails last for weeks! Very accommodating. No other salon offers the massage!

This used to be the BEST nail salon around when it was under different ownership/management. Mia would make everyone feel like a 'friend' and the quality of her work and all the techs she hired was top notch! If it wasn't, Mia would personally correct at no charge. This salon always offered so many extra amenities such as paraffin wax and massage--everything was so clean and service was friendly and professional. NOW -- a whole different story -- my latest experience was awful! i've been a loyal customer since they opened, but i will not return. The technician was rough and rushed --he actually burnt my nail w/the dremel tool. My cuticles were never soaked -- the technician was unfriendly, not wearing a name tag and seemed to just want to get the job done as fast as possible. Very sad to see the transformation. i'm open to recommendations for a new salon. Sad. read more

I just tried out unique nails because a co-worker recommended it. I called and made a same day appointment. As soon as I walked in I was greeted and shown to the polish wall - I was happy to see the new OPI Fall 2019 collection! I picked my color and was brought right over to a pedicure chair. I was so surprised that they use disposable liners for each foot tub per customer; this is so nice and sanitary! Maggie was my nail technician and showed me a pedicure menu I could choose from. Every pedicure comes with a paraffin wax heel treatment & shoulder massage! (Very unlike any other salon) The lavender pedicure ($55) comes with clay treatment for your legs, hot stone massage & 10 minute foot reflexology massage. (They use timers!) All while sitting in a nice massage chair and getting hot steamed towels, this was the best pedicure I've ever had! She did a great job exfoliating my skin and shaping my nails, the paint is perfect. Then I was brought over to a manicure station. The regular gel manicure includes a exfoliating scrub, hand dip paraffin wax, (I've never seen this included before) and quick lotion/massage application. My manicure came out beautifully and after the color I chose was still see through after 2 coats Maggie kindly offered a 3rd coat! My nails came out beautifully! From start to finish I was in the salon for 1.5 hours - it was well worth it and very spa like! I definitely recommend this nail salon and will absolutely be coming back! read more

Amazing services! Mike and Mia, the owners, are so sweet and learned my name by my second visit! I was able to understand their Chinese and Korean and while one of the employees complained that my friends were eating too much of the complimentary candy, Mia just replied, "nonsense! Refill the bowl!" I love this place. I only give it four stars because once I started booking appointments I have to wait 15 minutes or so before they're ready. I went back to peeking in the window to see if they're busy when I pass by to avoid waiting. read more

I used to love this place, and when I moved to Boston I would drive back here just to get my bails done. However, I came in with a gift card for a pedicure, and was overcharged when I was told that a pedicure cost $20 more than I was told. Instead of being refunded, I was given 3 $5 coupons (even though it should've been 4). I accepted the coupons since I figured what difference does it make, I can use them next time. So I returned for a gel manicure, and it wasn't until I was done that I was informed that I can only use these coupons one at a time, and they expire in March. Meaning I would have to basically get a weekly pedicure to make my money's worth. I'm empathetic to the fact that business are severely struggling during the pandemic, but it doesn't seem right to me that customers have to be ripped off and lied to in the process. I'm sad to say that I no longer trust my favorite nail salon to charge fairly and honestly. read more

This salon just opened this month and my daughter and I decided to give it a try especially since they are offering services at 20% off right now:) I love that they make you feel like you are in a spa rather than a "nail salon". My daughter received a gel set that turned out beautiful and I had a spa pedicure. Both of our services were finished off with a relaxing shoulder massage:) read more

My go-to nail salon in the Acton area. Kevin is great and always takes his time. He never pulls at my hands or does anything uncomfortable. I went there to get my prom nails fixed and he did an amazing job! I'm not huge on talking and I usually drift off in the chair which is perfect because there is no pressure to hold up a conversation. Very nice environment with great people. read more

They do a great job and talk to you while you get your nails done. the hand mask they put on when you get a manicure of any kind is so nice! plus a surprise massage is always the best! read more

This was my first time here. I loved the extra-long leg massage, including hot stones! I also loved the neck & shoulder massage while my toes dried. He did a great job! All these great extras for the same price as a regular pedicure elsewhere (which would charge extra for all these things). I left feeling really nice & relaxed. Thank you! I will be back again. :) read more

Unique Nails - Thank you for another perfect gel manicure, CJ! :) - Nail Salons Near Me - Acton, Massachusetts

Worst.Experience.Ever. I came for a pedicure and fill a couple weeks back, and had Nicole as a nail technician. I have been to MANY nail salons and have never had such an awful experience. The pedicure was all of 10 minutes, but I wasn't going to complain about that... Then, I go to have my nails filled, and Nicole starts almost yelling at me asking where I got my nails done before this. I could go on and on about how rude she was.... Finally, it was time to pay. Pedi was 30 and fill was 30. I was going to pay with credit card, told her to put tip on card please as I had no cash on me. I know its annoying to have no cash for tip, but she gave me the whole story of how its really an inconvenience I don't have cash. SO she asked how much I want to tip. I ALWAYS give 20% or more. This time, I said "10$ please". No joke, she looked at me, and said "How about 12 dollars, that would be 20 percent." So, she got the 12$ because I was just SHOCKED that she had this customer service!! Never ever again!!! read more

This place is terrible I made an appointment but they had a lot of walk-ins so they didn't take me at my appointment time, they made me wait my turn with the walk-ins. 45 min later they did a sloppy job on my toes and when I said I was out of time, they put polish on my nails and didn't even cut my cuticles even though I asked him 3 times if he would soak my hands and trim my cuticles. But they took my money with no problem. I will not be returning to this place. read more

I got a mani/pedi here and am happy with the results!! The services included a little massage which was nice. I only gave 4 stars, though, because halfway through my pedi I saw someone else getting a "spa pedicure". I was never asked if I wanted one, which I would have gladly paid for, and when I noticed the 'menu' of services and inquires about it I was told that they were only for people with callouses. So in the end, I'm rather disappointed that it wasn't made available to me.. My feet aren't calloused, but I can't stand the dryness and would have GREATLY appreciated the extra attention! I will go back, but now I know what is available, and to be specific about what I want. read more

This isn't a salon to get a dip manicure. They manually sand down your nails instead of using a sanding tool which scratches your skin painfully, much slower and doesn't shape your nail as well. On the plus, you get an amazing hand wax dip and mini neck massage at the end. I recommend the salon for other manicures though! read more

This was my first time here! It's so clean & nice inside! I've never been to a nail salon this nice. All I got was a manicure & she went above and beyond. They cleaned & cut my nails, then they bring you to a soft wax station where they did both your hands in this soft warm wax and then put gloves on you. It stays on for a couple minutes while they massage you. It's actually really nice & relaxing! Then they painted my nails. I was so impressed. And it was only $15. I'll be back! EDIT: it's been 10 days since I had my nails painted from here and they still look great. I highly recommend! read more

This was hands down the worst pedicure I've ever had and I get tons of them. It lasted literally 20 minutes. You could tell she was miserable the entire time, scrubbed my feet for about 30 seconds each and her massage was like a dead fish. I had to ask her to cut more of my cuticles which she did grudgingly. Then the polish was bad so I had to ask her to redo three of the nails. They do a small neck massage while your nails dry and she stayed in one place and probably left bruises, "chopping" the whole time. Buyer beware or just go somewhere else. read more

First time here... doing there lavender spa pedicure. It's basically pedicure + extra focus on your heels and callous. Let me just tell you it's already different than any place I've ever been and done something similar too. Definitely will be back. Places is decent size. Clean . Ppl are friendly. read more

Mia did a fabulous job on my nails will deff be returning there. She was so nice and took her time I have sensitive nails and she was very gents with them. Deff my new place to go read more

I came at opening time on a Tuesday morning so there were no other customers and no wait. The salon has a nice set of polish options and not the cheap ones that chip quickly so that's a plus. The space is clean and the staff is friendly. Tom was assigned to do my pedicure today and he did not disappoint. The salon has a regular pedi and then four different types of spa pedicures that cost more. I chose the lavender pedicure which is $55, which is about $10 more than the regular. The spa pedicure prices go from $55-$100. The one I chose had a mud mask for your legs, a massage, and hot rocks for relaxing. Tom did an amazing job on my nail polish and listened to my requests for how to cut down my nails. Even better was the leg massage! He used medium pressure and it felt amazing! This is my third time coming here and I've always been happy. Even with the Christmas Eve crowd, I never felt rushed. Will definitely be back, and I'll definitely ask for Tom again. read more

They always get me in fast when I need my nails done. Clean and bright facilities. Very nice staff. And the best part, they always give back rubs at the end of my nail service - so nice! Oh ya and the nails look very nice also. Next time, I'm trying a pedicure also. read more

Can't say enough good things about this place. It's super cute, WICKED clean and they're amazing. Mark is one of a kind. So meticulous -- I went in for a gel manicure and I don't think I've ever had someone pay THIS much attention to my nails. The paraffin wax dip and 10 minute long arm and neck massage at the end were the cherry on the cake. As if this wasn't enough, as I was leaving I got a rewards punch card and a $5 coupon for the next time I Thanks SO much Unique Nails. read more

Went in today to get a spa pedicure, I was beyond excited because I heard great things! The First Lady I had was so gentle and didn't even know what a ingrown nail was, So another lady came in which was a lot better but it is not the best! I will not come again. And I don't think they are licensed nail technician, just putting it out there!!! ( oh and the painting job don't get me started, just don't do there) if you do go to the guy he looks more advanced than women, they should be a massage parlor they give better massages than pedi's! read more

The nicest people work here. It is peaceful and they give neck massage with nail work! Good environment and very helpful people! Will come back. read more

I have been going here since I started working in Acton. I usually hop around from salon to salon not caring where I get my nails done, however, I always make it a point to go here now. They are very friendly and usually always take me, even without an appointment. The owner is extremely nice and always greets me by my name :) There is even a little massage at the end of each session. read more
