    I've been here twice now and I really enjoy their service. Call ahead to make an appointment as they can get busy. Apple is the one that does my nails and I'm always happy with the result. I'll bring in a couple of designs that I like and she'll take all of them into consideration and use her creativity to turn it into something amazing. They use Bio Gel which is better for you and not something that all salons offer. I also like it because when you walk in, it doesn't have that "nail salon smell" where you feel like you're breathing in poison. I've had my nails done at other salons in the past and my nails always burn when I put it into the UV lamp. My nails burnt very little the first time I got my nails done. The next time you go to do your nails, they'll leave a very very thin layer of gel and this will prevent that burning feeling.

    Really love that they are able to do all designs! Whatever inspo picture i show the girls, they're able to replicate it at least 80%. They are super busy so make sure you book an appointment ahead of time. I prefer this location for gel nails with designs

    Came here right before my honeymoon. Was in a desperate state because I needed nails done before leaving and was swamped with work and stuff. ANYWAYS, i came by on a Friday morning around 10am. There were three girls working, only one that actually had a client. I was quoted 40 dollars on the phone when I had called in about a gel re-fill. I understand that I had a broken nail, so there is additional surcharge for that. But i was charged for 60 in the end. Not only that, this place DOES NOT CLEAN THEIR EQUIPMENT. It was so gross. I noticed this half way through my nail session when the girl was about to cut my cuticles with clippers that STI LL HAD LEFT OVER SKIN from someone else dried up on it. OMG. I just asked her to not cut my cuticles and finish up. Not only that, but the girl filed my nails sooooooo badly she actually cut my fingers up. I AM NEVER GOING BACK TO THIS PLACE. They charge whatever the heck they want and they don't even clean their equipment.

    My friend referred me to Yoyo nail. Overall experience was great. I love the design they recommended and the price is exactly what I expected. They are also patient to answer all my questions and concerns. Would definitely recommend to my other friends as well.

    My mom has been coming here for a while and I've always loved her nails. Last month for my birthday I decided to take her to get our nails done and she recommended to get this place. The base fee for single colour was reasonable for bio gel and additional designed or colours was $5 per addition. For four weeks my nails did not chip or break. And I use my hands a lot (weightlifting). Today I decided to get a refill and YoYo the owner took care of me. She gave me recommendations and suggested colours that would match what I was looking for. She was very helpful and did a fantastic job with my nails. I think they turned out better than I had originally thought. I settled with a bright coral pink top ombré with a white base. I am IN LOVE WITH IT.

    I have been going to Yo Nails Studio for more than 5 years+, from their previous location at Times Square to this current location at Chalmers Gate. All nail artists including Yoyo the owner, does an amazing job during each visit. Compared to other nail salons in the same area or same plaza, Yo Nail Studio is reasonably priced for the amount of gel they use on you,and they DON'T BREAK OR FLIP after a day or two like other places do. Price range for a gel manicure is around $35 up depending on what type of designs, drawings, gemstones, extensions you require. I've tried going to other places with Groupons and I still end up coming back here, why? Because Yo Nail is so much better in terms of service (bright smiles) with friendly staff and very attentative. Be sure to call ahead to book your appointment! I would recommend this place if you're looking for trendy designs!

    Stumbled upon this place since my regular nail salon were closed and ever since I've been to Yo Nail Studio for months now and honestly they get it every time. I LOVE how they shape the nail whether it be almond or coffin. Whichever nail shape you request they really do it with precision. They also have lots of colours to choose from and LOTS OF BLING. Customer service is really good and all their employees are very nice too. Will recommend this place!!

    It's my first time coming to Yo Nail. I had just come back from vacation and I was in desperate need of a trim. Plus I wanted to get a new set of shallac done. I called in today to see if they had any opening and they did! Ilene did my nails today - she was sweet, focused and had great attention to detail. I wanted some gold tape on my nails - after placing my hand in the light, she noticed a bit of lifting. She did not even hesitate, quickly took off the shellac paint and redid my nails. Last time I got the same service done elsewhere, it took 3 hours... But here, I was out in an hour!! I am very impressed with this place and already booked my next appointment. 10/10 would recommend!

    my nails!! shellac

    I went to get my nails done here for my birthday. Eileen was the girl who did my nails and she was so so sweet! Really easy to talk to and she did an amazing job. This place is well known for their complex designs with stones and everything but I got a simple shellac manicure with silver tips and she did it beautifully. This was $30. I showed her a photo beforehand and she did it perfectly. These pics don't have good lightening but I'm obsessed. I'll definitely be back here. Tip: call in and ask if you can come before arriving/call and book and appointment. It's very busy here and they're generally booked up.

    Have been there couple times, the lady did a great job. I always have a hard time with choosing styles of my nails and they would patiently give me advices and also she remember what I like and what I dont like which I really appreciate that.

    I have been going to Yoyo for almost 10 years, from her working for other people until she has her own store. The quality and her design of her bio gel nail has never disappointed me. She knows what range of price I would feel more comfortable, so she always makes designs within my range. There were once or twice, the gemstone falls off, and she just fix it with no extra charge. I definitely recommend girls who loves pretty nails to go to Yoyo!!

    Yo nails is a great find! Call ahead to get a spot. If you walk in, you might have to wait 15-30 minutes. I got the gel nails and I didn't know what I want but the nail technician I got was really patient and very nice. She helped me decide on the design. The pricing depends on the design. Mine was around $75. You can choose stones, stickers, foil, handpaint design, and others. If you have a picture of what you want, they can price it for you. She also asked me how much I wanted to spend so you can definitely be in your budget.

    I went back once more to give her a chance. These were my honeymoon nails. Again, I was charged a different price from my wedding.
    Ce T.

    Yoyo left a ridiculous message for me. I'm going to leave pics of all the work she's done. Maybe this will jog her memory. I doubt it, because I showed her the pics of her work for my wedding shower the day before my wedding and she denied doing the work. I was the only customer in the shop as it was the freak snowstorm in April 2018, but she still denied remembering me! Next time ladies, when you get work done and are quoted a price, take photos of your nails WITH her in the pic and also get evidence of the price you paid because it will definitely change based on her mood and whether you speak Mandarin. I agree with the other reviewer - watch out.

The salon was clean, and covid guidelines were followed accordingly. And the capacity indoors was maintained. All tools were cleaned prior to use, which is comforting to know. Fanny did most of the hair cut, and Firozeh did some finishing touches + blow dry. Great team work! The cut and style was good, and I like the face framing layers. I'm just getting used to the length after having long hair for a while. I also like that they didn't use a ton of products, or push me to buy products - my hair felt light and refreshed. Fanny and Firozeh are both lovely and I missed the light hearted salon chats over the last year. It was a good experience and I recommend them.

Decided to check out Nail and Beauty Station after reading the other reviews and honestly, I was not disappointed! At first glance, the establishment was very clean with a cute interior design. Lindy was the one who did my nails - she was super nice, professional, and extremely patient with me, especially when I was trying to describe exactly how I wanted my nails shaped. She also helped choose the colour, which I am a big fan of! I had a full set of bio gel nails done, and couldn't be happier about the result. Definitely coming back soon for my refills (they also gave me a point loyalty card). I've previously been to a few salons in the past that for some reason, always managed to slightly knick my cuticle a little bit which led to some bleeding, but no problems here!

    Honestly I'm writing this review because I used to go here on a regular basis until one of the…read moreinexperienced nail techs buffed off majority of my healthy nail. I used to come here often but they recently lost me as a customer. I'm still recovering from my thin nail (which used to be healthy and strong). When I went to another nail salon to take off my shellac, they commented on how there was a significant noticeable difference between my left and right hands (because the nail tech from this salon messed it up). I would love to say something positive but ever since this happened, I unfortunately won't be going back.

    The Nail Social - Gel nails done by Joey. Please note that manicure does not come with ice cream cone

    The Nail Social can be found inside a strip mall, between A Corner Cafe (which surprisingly is not…read moreon a corner, lol) and Yin Ji Chang Fen with plenty of parking available. Since my family and I were staying in Markham during our last vacation, I wanted to find a nail salon in the city, which ended up leading me here (which I found on Yelp). There wasn't any information about price though on this Yelp page but am happy to add these photos of the pricing that I took when I arrived. I initially had made an appointment for Tuesday, around 2 pm the day before. However, my lunch with one of my aunts and uncles went longer than expected and so I had to call to cancel and ask if I could change the time to a later time. The girl on the phone was so kind and told me because I wasn't exactly sure what time I would be available to have my nails done, she suggested to call before coming in just so I would not have to wait if I was to do a walk in. So later that day, I called prior and the girl told me to come in, so I walked in around 4:55 pm and waited a little over 10 minutes before being asked to take a seat by an employee named Joey. I wanted to get gel nails, which is different from shellac nails for those that may confuse the two (especially since sometimes nail salons will use both words interchangeably but they are not the same). Shellac nails are kind of like a semi- permanent polish, which doesn't last as long (and also is cheaper than gel nails). But gel nails are a semi- permanent gel nail, which does last a few weeks longer. Gel nails cost $75 for a new set. I also wanted a design (I almost always get a design with my nails, which does cost extra but I don't mind), which I had a photo on my phone to show Joey. I told her what design I wanted for my ring finger and middle finger and the same on the other hand (so total of 4 nails that would have design). Joey told me that cost would be $75, in which she didn't charge me extra for design (so I made sure to tip her higher because of it). I liked that Joey took a photo of the design I had in mind with her camera phone so that she could refer to it on her own phone while she was painting my nails. Joey definitely is very talented and I just loved the design she had, as I picked an ice cream cone with sprinkles. She also helped me to find the right colors that I wanted (I wasn't looking for the exact shade and am pretty flexible). I really loved the way the design and the pink color I picked for the rest of my nails, as it really went with the ice cream theme. Although Joey told me that my nails would last 4 weeks, my nails lasted beyond that (and never chipped or lifted. Being in health care, I don't baby my hands and I also wash them constantly, honestly these were probably the best nails I have ever had done). The only reason I took them off was because it really need a fill since my nails had grown over. Joey told me that she had not done an ice cream cone before and she was also happy with her results too. Now this is my first time getting my nails done in Canada and am not sure if it is not customary to get a hand massage and lotion on your hands after a manicure or not. I didn't get one after this manicure but have always had it done with the nail salons in California and also in Hawaii where I have gotten my nails done. Not a big deal, but I wished I had brought my own lotion to put on since my hands were dry. But overall, I am very happy with my experience and would come back the next time I visit Markham in the future. Please note that they do accept credit card but there is a credit card fee. I ended up paying cash.
