They were kind and helpful when coming up with a plan for helping me get my nails to a healthier place after months of having builder gel refill after refill. The vibe is relaxed and they have a wide variety of services. Would definitely recommend! read more

Shady owner switches tips and shuts the door in customers' faces. I've been a loyal customer at this salon for over FIVE years, and I've always loved the girls who work there -- they are kind, talented, and hardworking. Unfortunately, after what I experienced today, I will NEVER be returning. Over the years, I've noticed how the owner speaks to his employees -- often condescendingly -- and I've seen several great technicians leave. Today crossed a line I can't ignore. After my manicure and pedicure, I tipped both technicians directly through the envelopes the owner handed me. A few minutes later, one of the girls quietly came up to ask if I had tipped her a certain amount -- turns out, the owner switched the cash tips I gave them, which is considered tip theft and is ILLEGAL in PA. When I asked why, he told me he changed them based on "percentages," as if he had the right to decide how my money should be divided. I told him that's completely inappropriate -- it's the customer's choice, not his. Instead of apologizing, he told one technician to hand a dollar to the other to "make it even," completely missing the point. When I calmly said this behavior was dishonest and unfair, he took one of the girls to the back and shut the door -- I spoke up because I didn't want her being scolded for his actions. I waited over 15 minutes to speak with him, and when I finally got the chance, he literally shut the door in my face. I left in tears -- not just because of how I was treated, but because of how poorly this man treats his employees. The staff deserves so much better. It's a shame to see such good people work under someone who behaves like this. If you care about integrity, respect, and basic decency for other humans, take your business & hard earned money elsewhere. read more

Technician never told me it's a $10 fee to remove gel until I got stuck with it on the bill... I would have removed it myself then come back. I asked the Technician to smooth out an area that was clearly not smooth from what she did. She told me that it's extra to use the machine...which I was surprised and shocked. Why do I have to pay extra to have the tips of my so-called manicured hands smooth out? Isn't that part of getting a manicure. Worst manicure EVER... read more

Not the quality it used to be. Service leaves a lot to be desired. Not worth the price.

Follow up Unfortunately, I had to block the salon's phone number due to numerous calls from the owner. I have not gone back since. I also have not had a problem with nail fungus or lifting at the salon I currently frequent. No other tech, past or present, has mentioned that I have "short" nail beds. Again if you go in for a basic mani/pedi, be satisfied. Atmosphere is very quiet and relaxing. Such a shame because I did want to try the spa pedi. I never did use the 20% off discount since I rarely ever give a business a five star review unless I'm blown away. 11/15/19. I appreciate owner response. I'll add another star for the offer to rectify the situation. I'm interested in eco friendly artificial nail extensions. I do not have the coupon anymore but I might make an appointment soon to update my review if necessary. read more

this was my first time at Crystal nails. I absolutely loved the service, everyone was so friendly and Lucia (my nail tech) did an AMAZING job. I will def be coming back! read more

11/1/18- They no longer do acrylics! I couldn't come back to get my fill, literally no warning and out of nowhere they just stop doing acrylic? Really?! Very disappointed. It actually became a blessing because I found a place that does them a million times better and is better equipped to do the job. I won't be back to crystal nails. Got my first acrylic set ever for a music video here and they did a nice job. Manager was checking in throughout the service and making sure I liked the shape, length, color .. I got a chrome color so it was a bit more expensive. If you download the app you can get discounts on services! I'll be back to get them filled. read more

After receiving an excellent pedicure and manicure the other day, the owner actually became arrogant and argumentative with me regarding the tip that I gave to the tech. He insisted that I give her more money (I gave her $15 initially). I told him that I didn't have any more cash. I was insulted and humiliated in front of staff and customers. I will never give my business to them again read more

If I could give this place 10 stars - I would! Very great service. My usual technician at another location was unavailable so I came to Yelp to save me! I have a graduation tomorrow (big day for me) & I need my nails done. Well I stop by here & (1) the owner is spectacular! (2) technicians are very friendly (3) very accommodating! I was in a rush since I have so many things to get done before graduation @ 10am & they were able to get me in & out in an hour. That's with a refill & polish change on my toes. I normally take 2 hours anywhere else since I only use gel products & it's a lot more maintenance. The owner gave me 2 of his technicians which I thought was very sweet - just to get me out sooner! Finally, ending product was beautiful. I love my nails! I'm definitely returning & making this my primary place to come!! read more

Crystal Nails & Spa - Soooo pretty! Perfect color too! - Nail Salons Near Me - Lafayette Hill, Pennsylvania

I have been going to Crystal Nails off and on for 20 years, and I have been very satisfied until today. I made an appointment for a manicure and pedicure today, got there a few minutes early, and had my pedicure, which was awesome. This is the total truth, I was half finished with my manicure, the manager asked me to get up and wait 10 minutes, because I was supposed to get my manicure during my pedicure, and the girl who was doing it had a client. I was taken back, I said fine, but I will not wait midway through because I wasn't scheduled properly, I'd leave and do the rest at home. The customer who was waiting, said she would wait until I was finished. He acted like it was my fault or the tech's, but clearly it was his mistake. I finished, paid, and I told him that was awkward, it wasn't my fault that no one came and did my manicure during my pedicure, how was I to know. He said in an annoyed voice, it's over, don't talk about it, not it was my fault and I handled it very poorly, I am sorry. He and everyone there knew knew it was ridiculous. I love Lucia, she is awesome, but I will not be returning. There are a ton of other nail places nearby, I didn't need his arrogance. read more

Reasonably priced and super friendly! Everything is very clean and they can get you in and out pretty quickly. The shoulder massage at the end of the mani/pedi is really nice. read more

I appreciate the offer to have me come back in but I will not be taking you up on that offer. I should have went with my first thought and immediately went to another place and gotten them redone but I didn't. It's been less then two weeks and I now have fungus on two of my nails. I have never experienced anything like this in my life!!! Mind you I'm 9 months pregnant and have to now consult my doctor to ensure this doesn't harm my unborn child. I will never step foot in this establishment in my life!!!! Nice try the color wasn't different as you can see the lighting in the picture is ( first was done at night the update was done in the day). I have no reason to lie on your establishment again like I Said I won't be returning to this place. You tell yourself whatever you want but these are the nails I got done at your place. What would I have to gain by lying you already offered to do them for free, what would be my motivation? I stand by what I said the person you have doing SNS at the shop doesn't know how to do them. read more

Crystal Nails & Spa is still the best place around! This other place (Universal Nail) had cut me several times with the nail drill and nail file and made my nails/fingers an absolute mess!! Crystals was close to closing when I made my emergency nail trip right from that other salon to have my nails fixed and they still took me and Cindy (amazing) cleaned up my nails beautifully and helped with the soreness I felt in my fingers after the rough treatment at the previous place. Never trying another nail salon again , Crystal Nails & Spa is the number one place to go , the nail technicians are great at their craft and the environment is so relaxing and comforting! read more

Terry Yoo, the owner, is amazing. He is always making sure his staff is up-to-date on the most innovative and safe techniques, whiile keeping his salon current with new pedicure chairs, hot soothing neck warmers and hot rocks for a pedicure. The facility is spotless and everyone is so caring. They help my infirm mom navigate the pedicure chairs and are meticulous in nail treatments. the final neck massage can be well worth a visit. I highly recommend Crystal Nail Salon and Spa. It may be a dollar or two more, but your nails will last longer and it is a very nice experience to visit. read more

I love yelp for bringing me to this fabulous salon! Yesterday I was on my way to an event at my alma mater (villanova law) ... As I was getting ready I glimpsed down at my nails only to see horribly chipped pink polish - I had a few options (1) wear gloves or (2) find a manicure on the way! With just over an hour, I was determined to find a decent manicure - so I opened up yelp to figure out what was in route! I popped in my for my signature white manicure ... The manicurist was quick and beyond detail oriented - for 14 bucks, I considered it a steal!! I was out within 30 mins including a good 5 mins under the dryer and even made it to my event on time! I was so pleased that I went back the following day for a matching pedi! read more

There are a lot of nail salons in my neighborhood and I would choose to go here even if it wasn't a second away from home. Price is competitive and service is excellent. I'm not going to say who does my nails bc I don't want yelpers to schedule her and than her be unavailable to me, haha! But she is awesome!!!! A super great perk about this salon is that most of the time they will have someone do your manicure while your getting your pedicure done and you didn't even have to request it when u made ur appt., they just do it. Really cuts your time in half. As long as I don't move too far from here, I will remain a loyal customer. read more

I took my parents for a spa day at Crystal Nails. The staff was cordial and treated my parents with respect and care knowing this is a rare time of some rest and relaxation. Needless to say the parents were smiling ear to ear from the relaxed pedi and medi. Mama got her nails done and was showing them off everywhere we went that day. Thank you Crystal Nails for making a special day EXTRA special. Definitely recommend this place and will be coming again with my girlfriend. read more

Crystal Nails & Spa - Relaxation at its best! Dreaming to get this done again. - Nail Salons Near Me - Lafayette Hill, Pennsylvania

I love coming to this place for a multitude of services. I started getting super gel manicures as a healthier option to dip powder at their suggestion. I have also used to Cavi-Lipo machine as well as a foot detox soak. Highly recommend as everyone here is very friendly and helpful. read more

I live a very busy lifestyle as a private Chef. I wash my hands constantly and maintenance every two weeks with a French super gel manicure exclusively at Crystal Nails. I had started getting the dipping done at a salon near where I live. Once it got out that dipping was really bad for your nails, I made the switch to Crystal nails because my girlfriend has been coming here for years. My best friend was visiting about a month ago and I brought her here which is absolutely nowhere near home. My commute is usually anywhere from 35 minutes to 45 minutes on the way home. To most it may seem silly to travel that far to get your nails done. But I have come to trust and rely on Crystal nails to tell me the truth instead of being more interested in making a sale. The last time I had the French dipping....it destroyed my nails underneath and I was so upset. Last month is when we discovered that Crystal nails had come up with their own " super gel"manicure. Fantastic for me and their guarantee of 2+ weeks (same as dipping does) is true and it's much healthier for my nails I came into Crystal nails and spa at 6:30 PM. Still considering myself a new customer I figured I had a 50/50 shot at them saying they would still take me. I certainly didn't want to keep anybody later than they were supposed to get off but I was running out of time and my nails really needed done. The nail technician Esther even though she knew it would make her stay late still took me and that means the world to me. I'm done with nail salon jumping. Crystal nails will be my spot from now on. Thank you Crystal Nails and Esther for making my hands look beautiful. See u in 2 weeks! Brenda read more

I've been going here for many years and have never left dissatisfied. Every employee is excellent and the married Owners are a delight. Recently started using Super Gel and love it so much more than powder. It lasts longer (and I'm very active outside, go to gym, use computer etc), there is more of a color variety, it takes less time to take off and put on, and my nails are more healthy and strong than when I used powder. Highly recommend! read more

Came here with my bridal party the day before my wedding for manicures and pedicures. Everyone was pleased and the Gel Mani lasted almost two weeks. The didn't have the color I wanted, but my girl mixed two colors to make it just how I wanted for my wedding day. read more

I came here while on vacation from CA. I am so glad that I did because I had a relaxing time and am very happy with my nails! The spa pedicure chairs are comfortable and seem new. The services were lovely and the location is so clean! I highly recommend this for your nails read more

I've been going to Crystal Nails for years, and they've always been a breeze. It's easy to call and get an appointment when you need, it's always clean, and it's not too pricey. I only get basic manicures & pedicures, but they are done efficiently and quickly, but without taking any shortcuts. I love the quick massage at the end while your nails dry! read more

I have been going to Crystal Nails since they opened in Whitemarsh. Love their service and their staff. Very clean and professional. They treat me as a valued customer. I currently get the new super gel process which last up to 2 weeks. Love it!! Takes longer to come off but worth it. read more

Crystal Nails is a beautiful spa, scrupulously clean, professional and modern.

Love this nail spa! They really know what they're doing. I walked in on a Saturday and they were all booked so they gave me a rain check for $5 off. I made an appt for the next day for a gel manicure. The male owner was a little bit pushy for me to get some "super gel" for my manicure which I'm pretty sure did nothing compared to regular gel. He did comp the extra $5 which was nice. My technician was Grace and she was very sweet and did a great job. Came again about a month later and walked in on a quiet Wednesday night and Stella gave me a great full set. read more

This nail salon has a special "super gel" which I highly recommend. It's a stronger gel which lasts over 2 weeks regardless. I've never had an issue with It and will keep continue to come back for more!!! read more

Was never treated so rude as I was by the man working at the desk. The lady doing my nails had to keep apologizing for him Of course it was my fault not your tone and no explanation when i was there. Maybe you should have listened when I made the appointment for a dip and when I came in and said I wanted a dip instead of cutting me off and saying Gel. Of course is the consumers fault for your rude treatment read more

this place was a big disappointment . the older woman with short hair filed my nails down to their stubs. She was one cranky person. she did not ask if I wanted square or round, long or short. I prefer round and a little longer but I now have the opposite. I had gel nails put on and 4 days later one bubbled and is off ! Conversely, a young woman did an amazing job at my lip and chin waxing and she was very sweet. I will request one of the younger women if I ever go there again! read more

What a great experience. Reasonable rates. Beautiful shop. The pre treatment with lotion & neck and shoulder massage were an unexpected surprise. And my nails are gorgeous. Thanks Cindy! read more

Really enjoyed the service - mani and pedi. Took their time, very attentive, clean. Will definitely go back.

As much as I want to like this place, my experience was a disappointment. I got a regular mani/pedi and I was there almost 2.5 hours. Prior to leaving the salon, my nails were immediately damaged even though ample drying time was given. I complained, so they promptly fixed my nails, but within the hour of me being home 4 were badly damaged. I took off all the polish. My toes looked fine, but the manicure was horrible. I will not be returning. Although you have offered me a redo, I prefer to stick with a different salon and would appreciate not being contacted (called or messaged). Thank you. read more

I've been to Crystal Nails 3 or 4 times, and I won't go again. It is a big, very clean place. The end result has always looked great. But... it's expensive. I never feel pampered here (I like Elegant Nails, just down Germantown for that). And the last time I went my cuticle was cut too aggressively and it bled and bled and bled. Anyone can make a mistake, but she seemed annoyed about it rather than apologetic. There are much better options. (It's not the greatest place but Rainbow Nail Salon on Germantown in Chestnut Hill is open on Sundays.) read more

Dropped in for a pedicure since we just moved in up the street. It was fine.. nothing spectacular. Was definitely inexpensive at $25 for a regular pedicure. However, you don't really get a massage for that, so thats a trade-off. It was good for a fast stop, but I didn't feel pampered when I left. I will try another salon first before deciding if they are my go to place. read more

I have been going to Crystal for well over a year now. I have unfortunately had to switch nail technicians about 4 times now due to the ladies either leaving to have a baby, get married or another one hurting me. I go to Esther now, who is probably the most popular one there. The prices are a little high, but I love pampering myself so going every other week is worth it to get gel nail refills. I am however thinking about soaking my nails off and just getting regular manicures there to save time and money. Overall, I'm pretty happy there. read more

As other reviewers have mentioned, the male owner of this salon is very abrasive in an off-putting way. I came in for a dip powder as they are one of the only salons in the area that offers this service. I asked the owner for a color similar to a picture I had on my phone and he immediately cut me off and said they can not match colors to pictures.. ok, this is understandable.. However he then starts questioning my reason for even wanting to get dip powder telling me that it's bad for my nails and several clients have gotten a fungus from it! I am VERY appreciative of his honestly and that he mentioned this to me (therefore my 3 star rating), however, I am questioning why this salon even offers this service if customers have had these terrible issues and if you end up trying to talk your clients out of even getting this service altogether. I am also unappreciative of how this man was talking to me and felt extremely uncomfortable that he was questioning me in a very loud voice in front of other customers. All in all I ended up leaving without getting any service because the whole interaction really weirded me out. read more

Crystal Nails has poor customer service, I have been their a few time to get my nails and feet done and everytime the service went downhill, but the icing on the cake is when was after I paid for my refill the owner who is a male said to me that his prices of his services was posted and that after your service that you are expected to pay an 18% tip to the technician for their service all I can do was look at him like he was crazy. So being as though that their prices is ridiculously expensive, you pay $55 for a gel refill which consist of $35 for the gel refill and $20 for the gel polish and $60 for a pedicure thats $115 which is to much but to ask a person to pay an 18% tip on top of it this is just observe. For one if they ask you to cut down your nails in which the price is $15 and if you break an nail to have it fix is $5 per nail, now add it up all up if you need to get all of this done and on top they want you to pay an extra 18% tip!!! If you say no that you don't want them to fix your she will say something to him in their language and he will come over and try to convience you and if you say no he will then tell her to stop what she's doing while she in the middle of doing your nails and say that he's not going to serivce you. So after I paid for my refill I told him that I pay the technician an $10 tip everytime I had serivce done and for him to tell me that wasn't enough this man is truly crazy and for him to say this in front of a crowded salon this was very unprofessional, at this moment all I can do was get my son and leave before I cursed him out!!! me leaving was me not stepping down to his level which was ignorance!!! UNPROFESSIOANL and RIDICULOUSLY EXPENSIVE!!!! I had my nails down in better salons then this. read more
