They did an amazing job with my pink chrome nails. I got a gel mani-pedi, which cost $80 for the…read morebase + $10 for chrome on my mani. The total was about $90 and I ended up paying $103 + tip since they have a fee for using a card. Go with cash for less fees! They were so attentive and made sure to check my nails after every cure. If there were any issues, they fixed it right away. They don't have as many colors as my other salon but I was pretty content with the options they had. I honestly thought it made the process simpler to pick and they had really nice shades of all the major color groups. I came in with an idea of what I wanted and was able to identify which colors I would need to get to my goal without being overwhelmed by too many options. That definitely made the experience better for me as an indecisive girlie. I will definitely come back next time. They have a lot of areas of manicures-pedicures and I was able to call ahead last minute to see if they had an availability. The moment I got there, I was helped immediately. I would love to try one of their powder set nails next time.

Unfortunately, I did not have a good experience at this nail salon…read more From the moment my service started, the nail technician was not friendly. I understand that everyone can have a bad day, but when you work with customers, kindness and professionalism are part of the service. She never asked me how I wanted my nails shaped, even though I always ask for them to be very square. She also did not properly clean my cuticles. During the pedicure, she was very rough and kept pushing my foot into the tub. On top of that, she never asked if the water temperature was comfortable for me. I paid $45 for a gel pedicure, and I believe that price should come with quality service and respectful treatment. I also work in customer service, and no matter how bad my day is, I would never treat a customer this way because I understand that people are paying for a good experience. I even left a tip, and honestly, I don't know why because I walked out feeling frustrated, uncomfortable, and very disappointed with the service. I hope this feedback helps improve the level of customer care and the overall experience for future clients.

She is so sweet and asked me about my upcoming wedding, and soon enough we were looking at my engagement pictures and talking about my plans. She also took her time on the manicure, cut every cuticle (wasnt pretty yall) and painted each nail perfectly. Sylvia did my pedicure and also took her time, while making sure she knew my preferences for length and shape. I came in without an appointment twice and I was treated right away. Tonight, it started to get a little busy as I was finsihing up, around 6:45/7pm, so I would suggest making an appointment if you plan to come in the evening.

This is actually the worst nail salon I've ever been to ... I scheduled a 5 o'clock appt for a…read moresimple gel pedicure & canceled my clients from 5-6 thinking that was enough time. The appt was confirmed on their end & I was so excited. I showed up at 5:03 PM rushing so I wasn't "late". The lady welcomed me, knew about the appt and told me to take a seat and wait a few minutes .... She was working on someone else and I was okay with waiting a couple minutes ... 15 minutes later, she asked me to soak my feet in water and was nowhere near done with the other customer .. I was like mhm ok ... after 25 minutes, I couldn't do it anymore. I started to take my feet out of the water and told her I couldn't wait any longer and that I understand things happen but to not take reservations then ... instead of apologizing, she goes "things happen, people take longer, that's how it goes".... I don't think businesses that last run in an unorganized manner ... if you're in the area - beware! Use another nail salon in Astoria! Unless you don't mind aimlessly waiting ..

I had a regular polish manicure here over a month ago, and my nails are still visibly damaged…read more The technician over-buffed my natural nails, which caused: * Permanent-looking dents and uneven texture * Staining exactly where the polish was applied * Overall thinning and weakness of my nails This should never happen with a regular manicure. Proper technique does not require aggressive buffing, and the damage is clearly due to poor prep, not my nail health. I've had regular manicures for years and never experienced this kind of damage. My nails are now taking months to grow out and recover. I would not recommend this place, especially if you care about the long-term health of your natural nails.

I'm very loyal to my usual nail salon, but I desperately needed a powder manicure and decided to…read moretry WellShow Nails on 11/18 -- and I'm so glad I did! I was greeted right away, accommodated as a walk-in, and genuinely felt taken care of from start to finish. The salon is cute, spacious, and beautifully decorated with tons of color options. The gentleman at the front even helped start my powder removal while I waited for my technician, which I really appreciated. I also loved the thoughtful touches -- the little silicone stylus so you can use your phone while your nails are soaking, the iPhone stand, and the lotion/scrub treatment at the end because my hands were so dry. My technician was patient, checked in with me throughout, and made sure the color and finish were exactly what I wanted. Two weeks later, my nails are still holding up beautifully, and I especially appreciate that the powder isn't thick -- it looks like my real nails. Even at checkout, the person at the front was kind and helpful, and I appreciated the flexible payment options. The only thing missing is a loyalty program or punch card for return customers -- I'd sign up in a heartbeat!

You can find me here every other Thursday at 615 for a fillin and pedicure. My past review speaks for itself but here I am again to remind everyone that this is the number one spot in Astoria as I have been coming here since high school; 2001. Very rarely do I have a nail break or get messed up a few days in and as always I walk in and Debbie takes care of me as she would anyone else. Other shoutouts go to Gina and Julie ... but anyone there is good. Thank you Rainbow! See you in two weeks.

First interaction the receptionist was pleasant and sat me with "Yu yu" right away. The pleasantries ended there. This tech had a bad attitude from the start but i was being as polite as possible to try to improve her mood (not my responsibility). Very short answers mostly grunts, then she cut my finger badly (blood) and barely said sorry. Accidents happen. I wanted a custom design, brought a photo for inspo and "Yu yu" said she could do it. As we progress into her shaping my nails the receptionist mentions the price is more because its ombre. On their price list, ombre is "$20" she quoted me $25, interesting. Yuyu picks the colors closest to my inspo pic and only checks if i approve after starting to paint. Moving into the design portion, her airbrush wasnt working and she spent 8 extra min fumbling with it and getting progressively frustrated. She tries a diff technique (sponge) but with a completely different color, nothing like my inspo pic. I assume she was building layers of color, my mistake for assuming. She asked me if i liked it, i said yes but i didnt think she was done, she proceeds with a top coat... i pause her on nail two when i realized it was the top coat. I ask if a brighter color (closer to inspo) was going on top and she immediately says " you said ok so i put the top coat".... The minimal exchange of words between us but somehow its my fault? Then she proceeds to speak a language i dont speak, at me. I assume she is upset and try to assure her she can just add the color i want on top its no big deal. She ignores me. I repeat myself a min later because i believe its rude to just ignore someone esp if you are offering them a service. She insists shes going to take it off and do a diff color. I tell her i dont want that i have to go soon just put the color on top. She tells me the color is too dark. At this point are you doing your nails or mine? I get frustrated and again insist on my request. She ignores me again and fiddles with her airbrush machine. This goes on for about 7 min no dialogue just her tinkering. I am now just sitting here confused. I told her the sponge method is fine if the machine is broken. She gets upset and says go to another Tech. Um excuse me?? She points to a diff table and demands me to go. This exchange is so random and abrasive. The male Tech I'm directed to, wants to be dismissive with me (in solidarity with his coworker) but im telling you i have been so polite this whole time he eventually becomes the most receptive and accommodating of the 3 ( this is right after he cussed out a diff customer for asking for $ change) this place is so weird. Then i have to reexplain my request show the photos and eventually just settle on something opposite of what i wanted because of time. I entered at 1:40 and it was now 3:18p. He finishes with my design. Proceeds to give me a "free massage"???? 1 min of sloppy shoulder touching. I dont need this nor does this relieve anything... I go to pay. Receptionist asks to see the nails and comment "pretty".. i nod and ask the total uv gel set $65 and ombre $25 plus 4 star design $35...$125.. I say to myself "$35 is criminal for 4 finger design" then all hell breaks loose with the receptionist. Using the word criminal must have been her trigger word. She begins her rant about asking the price ahead of time, working hard and questioning if im going to pay. None of which were my issue! At this point it seems shes defending her first tech for whatever was said in the other language. Not sure how we got here. I wish it was recorded it was so bizarre! Then i ask is it ok if i get $5 off for her making me bleed... she begins with maybe for a future service but realizes mid sentence she knows she will never see me again, "ok this time fine" $120! "But you are going to tip them right?" Uh?!!!?!? Tipping is my choice based on my experience you cannot demand a tip, i tell her. She starts again on how her tech works hard. I ask for change because I always tip but now i fully regret it. Worst experience in a while. Meanwhile one of them cussed out another guest for asking for change. They must of been having a hard week, but this exchange was unacceptable. Fix your attitudes, this is customer service. If i got the nails i wanted it wouldnt have been so bad but... look at this despicable and ugly result
