A great addition to the neighborhood! Clean, courteous staff, great massage chairs, solid pedicure, and lots of fun colors to choose from. They also wax and so on... $25 mani/pedi mid-week, $29 thurs-Sun. Could I get it for $5 less downtown? Yes. Would I prefer to save my subway fare and come to Coco young nail salon? Yes! read more

I recently started getting my nails done here by Delphina. Delphina is great! I've been going for a couple months now and she has done acrylic and gel nails. She always takes a long time because she is concentrating and makes them perfect! She is super sweet and listens to what you want. The place is clean and cheap ($30ish for gel and $60+ for acrylic) but it is always crowded so be sure to make an appointment! read more

This is my new fav nail salon. I used to go only to envy, but this place is closer and I love the diverse, friendly staff. I went on a Friday and it was packed when I walked in but I didn't wait long. Deborah was my lady of the day and she was so sweet and talked to me the whole time. Prices are reasonable and the place is modern, I will def be back! read more

Have been looking for a neighborhood salon and this is it. Very friendly, a little crowded, but kind of adds to the neighborhood vibe. One of the best manicures I've gotten in the city over the past 6 months. Definitely worth a try. read more

Second time here. Meticulous and pleasant. The pedicure I got today was more money than I usually budget for but was worth every penny! Eliana was masterful at foot massage. I could feel my muscles releasing all the way in the top of my head. They have a special price for manicure+pedicure on Tuesday's and Wednesday's. read more

Marcelina does a great job. The manicure lasts about a week and the pedicure lasts about three weeks. For $30, it's a good deal. Friendly staff read more

This place was highly recommended to me by my co-workers and decided to check it out. I went on a Wednesday (Mani & Pedi special $32.00) and my experience was ok. The technician who serviced me took her time on my feet, which was great, but went a little bit too hard on my toes (she filed off some of my skin while filing my toes and when I pointed out the pain to her the damage was already done) and did not scrub my feet as well as she should have, which I pointed out to her as well. She did better with my mani in terms of cleaning but the paint job could have been better (the paint job was not even and you can see the polish layers on my nails). This place is very close to my job and more affordable than the other salons so I would give this place one more chance but definitely with a different technician. read more

I was truly disappointed on my last visit here as my two daughters and I have been coming here since their opening and everything was great then . I have moved out of state and I had not been here for about a year I came in for my mani pedi with the gel polish the young lady which I didn't know did a rush job and was very rough in doing so. My nails ended up chipping after a week after plucking down $79 I didn't even get more than a weeks wear on my nails, truly disappointed. The place also seems a little less bright since Candy is no longer there. I used to love coming here. Now it's questionable to me read more

I've been here only twice and I will officially never go anywhere else in the city for a manicure. They do a WONDERFUL job especially with gel manis. Both times I have gotten them, the lasted 2 full weeks at minimum. They are really great here and for the price (around $31 for a gel) they are absolutely worth it. Don't go anywhere else- this place is a godsend! read more

I love this place! I am so glad there's a nice, clean nail salon in the neighborhood. They have the same products that you would find in other 'more upscale' nail salons in Manhattan (essie, barielle, etc). Maria did a great job with my nails and her sister (Vanessa?) gave me a great chair massage! To top it off, I got a mini Korean language lesson :-) read more

Coco Young Nail Salon - Nail Salons Near Me - Manhattan, New York

See all

When i first arrived, i asked for someone who does a good job. The response was, it depends on the customer because he thought everyone was good. Not! Pricey for harlem, and my technician was subpar. The woman spent so much time talking and chit chatting with other clients instead of doing a good job on my pedicure. Unprofessional! Then when it was time to scrub my heels, i learned that they no longer use the tools that most nails salons use. A pumice stone won't do the trick. Sorry! What are we actually charging for if you are just filing and polishing my nails? I had to pay extra to get dead skin scrubbed off of my feet. Why?! Isn't that what's supposed to be happening in the first place. I only came to this place because it was close and i didn't have time to go elsewhere, but not worth the money. At all! I hate wasting money on bad service. read more

Hands down the best nail salon in Harlem. Always clean, great color selection and the staff is beyond friendly. Delfina is incredible! A mani/pedi with her takes awhile but the intention is to sit back and relax -- it is so worth it! She's a perfectionist and you leave with a high end quality pedicure. read more

I live a block from Coco Young, and I've always had a good experience. I don't go that frequently (ie, I probs should for a pedicure more often, always feel like I'm making too much work for my tech when I finally make it in!), but when I do they are very friendly and warm. I was prompted to write a review after my most recent visit, because I had a tech I've never seen before, Monica- who was awesome. She was very receptive to what I wanted done to my cuticles (not too much, just any stragglers). Also, I waited a normal amount of time before I put on my heels for an interview I had later after my pedicure, but darn it somehow in the hour I had them on the big toes smudged, stupid plastic H&M heels... SO, I stopped back in on my way home, and Monica fixed them both, no questions asked. She even refused my tip for fixing them, so I'll have to get her next time. read more

I found my new nail spot! I used to go to Envy because they're really cheap, but after a few bad experiences, I vowed never to go there again. This place is not too far from my school, so I decided to give it a try, and I'm glad I did. This place is so nice. The decor is beautiful and instruments are sanitary. Their products are top of the line, and you can tell they really care about their customers. They had these cute uniforms and name tags, very professional. Everything looked so modern, and up to date. My nails look great, and my feet feel so soft. I even got a complimentary mini massage while drying. Took be my surprise at first, but it was awesome. Mani/Pedi combo is only 25 bucks Mon-Thur. Sooo worth it. Spring time is quickly approaching so I'll definitely be back soon! Thanks Coco Young :-) read more

Very clean and my nails were done quick and well. Great place in Harlem!

Wow, I feel bad just giving them 3 stars after all the other yelpers gave them 5 stars. I just felt that my experience was 'meh'. It felt like the space was really cramped and the experience was generic. The prices were average and the service was standard. I got a basic manicure for $10. The girl did a decent job then sent me over the nail dryers where she gave me a half-hearted shoulder rub. *shrugs* If the polish lasts for more a couple of days then they might get an extra star. The experience felt very impersonal compared to the service at Z-Nails. read more

This is the salon I visit in New York to get a mani/pedi combo. The price is right, the service is great, and the quality of the work is great. This spot was in need of a nail salon, so it's great having something in this location. Last time I was there I smudged my nails and they were really great about re-doing them for me. I'm also impressed with the amount of color options to choose from, and the fact that they carry so many of my favorite brand - Essie. Also highly recommend a quick neck/shoulder massage. read more

I came in today earlier for a manicure and my pedicure. The two larger toes were smudged when I get home and I received terrible service from Maria. 73 for a mani pedi?!! Come on. María insulted my nails wanted to know if I was a gardener because I had some dirt under my nails. Then mentioned in my actual profession that perhaps I should keep cleaner Nails. Mind you, out of the ten women that came in after me and during I was the only one who washed her hands prior to receiving service. I wash my hands a minimum of 10/15 times a day. Then said maybe it would be cheaper if I go to the Bronx like insinuating maybe I didn't belong there then is asking me if I'm from the Dominican Republic which I think is prejudice question to ask what does it matter where I'm from when you're insulting my nails and insinuating I should go to Bronx to do my nails? Also kept turning to watch the tv and talking so much to someone else while doing my nails the prices are too expensive for to be treated this way. I was so insulted read more

I came here, because my nails were in bad shape. I hadn't had time to get them done, and wanted to get them done cheap. I did a walk-in on a Saturday evening. They were very busy, so I had to wait over 15 minutes. They were transparent about it. Although the place is small, I didn't feel peeved by it. I didn't have to move my chair around for people to get through. They have a good color selection. My nails were well done. They lasted about 7 days or more without a single chip. The first chip was likely my fault. When my nails were drying, I received a short shoulder massage. It got me where I needed it, but I wish it was longer. One of the best results I've ever had. I usually don't give nail salons 5 stars. read more

I got an acrylic tip for a broken nail and got the rest of my nails filled. I had a great experience! Delphina did a wonderful job and was very detailed. I would definitely recommend this place, especially Delphina, to anyone. read more

Terrible service from Jenny. She was very rough cut me and then have the nerve to argue with me about it! Then she demanded a tip. I usually go there but will not come back again. read more

Great place! Not the best decorations or atmosphere, but they do a wonderful job with your nails. $29 for a mani/pedi. I'll definitely go back! read more

Teresa is awesome. She is super gentle and efficient. My pedicure lasted me almost two months and my gel manicure a month. She's friendly and does her job well. The place is clean and have a lot of options. I definitely recommend this place. read more

Service is usually really good there, live around the corner so its really convenient for me. Unfortunately, I went yesterday for a mani/pedi. The technician used a grater on my feet, was too rough with it and took off live skin, making me bleed everywhere. She was too rough around my heels as well, as a layer of skin is missing and now its hard to walk because it hurts. Warning - if you see them use the grater, take a pass or tell them to be super careful. read more

I have been getting my nails done for years and I have never had my nails look so beautiful until I came to this place. My nails look great and I am in love with them. This will now be my new place to get my nails done regardless the travel. But you guys need to change the hours because they totally open at 11. read more

I went here based on the stellar yelp reviews but I was very disappointed. I went to get a pedicure and the tech was rude and did not know what she was doing. She cut my toenails crooked and filed them incorrectly. She spent very little time scrubbing the soles of my feet so I still had dead skin on them. This is after I paid an additional $5 for a chemical "callous remover" that I frankly didn't need. She also never cleaned my toenails, cut me with the cuticle remover, and when she put the nail polish on she got it all over my toes. This is easily the worst pedicure that I have ever had. I usually go to a nail salon in Queens ($12 pedicures mind you) but I couldn't make it out there today. When they are done with my feet I look like a foot model. I spent $30 at Coco Young and get the WORST PEDICURE EVER. This place was some old bull. Do not go there for pedicures. read more

Nice, clean nail salon. Staff is always friendly. I usually get service right away, and even when it's busy I rarely have to wait more than few minutes. Prices are pretty much on par with other similar nail salons. You're not going to get a spa-like atmosphere or service, but if you're looking for a standard mani/pedi with nice staff in a clean environment, this is a good spot. read more

My nail polish chipped after two days and it was gel! They treated me like shit! The first nail lady Theresa was so nasty towards me! Than the manager June got so nasty to me because I felt uncomfortable and wanted another nail tech! Told me he didn't need my services. And I was to picky with my nails and toes! i come and support this business with my hard working money and being a student to be treated so poorly!!! i hate this place and I wish the owner will contact me so I can let them know I should have been treated totally different. i was told after not wanting the one woman Theresa do my nails. The owner Jun made me pick out a nail tech after I asked him can he assign someone. i was sitting there for 10mins because I was being ignored until I picked someone else to do my nails. Their customer service had me really low. Made me feel so sad! They get people who they want to comment on Yelp to help them but the people they don't help need to comment and bring this establishment down. No good!!! read more

I love this place! They are clean and affordable and do an amazing job!! I always get the gelish mani and a pedicure and it lasts over 2 weeks!! Great addition to the neighbourhood. read more

My favorite neighborhood nail salon! Professional treatment on all levels! Lots of great magazines to read and TV always has my favorite daytime shows! The salon is visited by a lot of men, I guess due to the high degree of professionalism. I have never had to wait more than 5 minutes and find all the girls likable, friendly and they all give excellent manicures! read more

Just got a mani & pedi here, and have to say. It was literally the best manicure and pedicure for the price. From the cuticles, to the foot scrubbing, to the polishing! The manicurist spent about an hour working on my nails while a typical place usually spends about 30-40 minutes telling me that I have no cuticles to cut. Definitely highly recommend! $29 for mani and pedi! read more

Love this place. Got 3 gel manicures by 3 different girls and they were all perfect. $30 for great service and no need to make an appointment. read more

My favorite nail place, near home. The mani/pedis here ROCK and the technicians are extremely detailed.

I love this place. It is always clean. There are many color and service options. I typically get the mani pedi combo-only $29! It is definitely the best nail salon in the area. read more

This was my first time at this salon and I must say it is one of the nicer salons in Harlem. I came in on a Saturday and it was very crowded but because we had an appointment they took us right away! Zulma did my pedicure and she was so sweet! She was very polite and took her time. The salon itself looked clean and It looked well maintained. The place itself is a little small, the decorations were so-so, and there was no AC (and when it's 80 something degrees outside you notice). But who can complain about the price! I got a regular pedicure which was $25. The color selection was great and I had a very pleasant experience. Would definitely come again but only with an appointment. It's too risky to walk in because it's always so busy!!! Great work with a great experience. read more

I've only been here once. No complaints. I was debating three or four stars, and Yelp defines three as "A-OK," which is what my experience was. The young woman who did my pedicure did a very good job. They got me seated right away. Price was about what I expected -- $29 and change after tax for a pedicure only. For that price, a slightly better quality environment (the furniture was a little dilapidated) and somewhat better massage would have earned them 4 stars. I liked that the women seemed to have a nice camaraderie among themselves. I would go here again. I could see amending to 4 stars in future. read more

I've been to this nail salon several times (even for my wedding day). This is the FIRST time I've ever felt so disappointed. I recommend this place to several people because of how great they were but now I'm regretting it. Any nail tech can see when their work isn't great. For 60+ dollars this isn't even worth it. Ridiculous!! I'm so furious right now. It's one thing to not being able to apply tips but to not be able to even clean my cuticles well. Wtf man . read more

I went to this nail place last met literally in the last hour, and everyone was very welcoming. Amelia did my nails very well, I will definitely go back here when I visit Harlem. read more

So glad to have this nail salon in the neighborhood. They were very kind and efficient. I had Maria and she was sweet. It is clean and that I love! I only wish my little shoulder rub was longer!!! read more

Very affordable ($29 for a mani/pedi) and really great service. I went with two friends. It was clean and everyone was very nice and did a great job. read more
