Some of my nails were so well done and I appreciated them taking me in last minute to fix 3 broken nails, but I thought they were going to change the paint on the other nails to match the newer color. It was the weirdest experience because I had asked them to clarify and even explained this to them when I was finished. If they weren't able to match all the nails, I would have been ok just getting the pedicure. Like how are you going to send a girl with unmatched nails?

I found it to be a very relaxing and the staff is friendly. I did find it to be a bit pricey. You do get a discount when you pay in cash. My nail technician was friendly, and took her time shaping my nails and being gentle with my cuticles. Several times I've gone for mani/ pedi's and it was painful when my cuticles were cut. I went for a basic mani/ pedi and would like to go back and try some of their other services. Welcome to the neighborhood!

I tend to get 60-90 minute nail art, most found on Pinterest. The health of my nails is much better since I've been going to miGak consistently. It's my natural nails, no extensions needed. The polish and the removal do not destroy my nails like Vanity Projects and other comparable nail shops. Everyone is sweet. I book online at Vagaro. You do need to plan ahead.

My nails look great. The technician was wonderful. However, the woman at the front desk had a bad attitude and was not nice at all. She never smiled, I was not offered the opportunity to make another appointment after I paid, (which has never happened), and while I was waiting for my change, she was texting. I was standing right in front of her and she continued texting and didn't give me my change until she finished on her phone. That is very unprofessional. I don't know her issue but that is not how customers should ever be treated. Disappointing.

The quality, consistency, and care here are on another level. Amy is one of the sweetest, most genuine people I've ever met, and it shows in her salon. Every single person who works here provides top-tier service, professionalism, and warmth. You can feel the love the moment you walk in. I've been coming to Amy since Covid, and even after relocating to Atlanta in June, I still fly back to New York just to get my nails and feet done. That's how good Ten Color Nails is. The best dip powder manicures and gel pedicures I've ever had--hands down. And as if that wasn't enough, Amy even makes sure I'm fed! That level of care is rare. Ten Color Nails isn't just a nail salon--it's an experience, a relationship, and a standard that no one else has come close to meeting. If you're thinking about booking, don't think--just go. -- A forever client

The structure gel took a long time so I thought it was going to be perfect and last long. However the very next day (10/3) I got a big chip. Went back to fix it (10/4) and then the next day (10/5) I see that many of my fingers have small chips that are most likely going to turn into big ones. To top it all off my finger is swollen, red, warm and tender!!! The tenderness began a day after on 10/3, as if from an infection. But by 10/5 my finger was swollen as if it was going to burst and 10/6 the cuticle was filled with puss. They did clip my cuticles alottttt. Like first one lady prepped my nails and clipped the cuticles but then the lady who actually applied the gel did it again before she started. So I'm pretty sure it's from that. I wanted to love this place but I'll never be back. I guess that's what I get for trying an out a spot and not sticking with my old faithful and to think I paid $85 for this service plus a tip. Update: I went back today 10/6 and was refunded. They were apologetic but I still won't be back.
