I use to be a frequently flyer with tom as my nail tech. I called two days ago and spoke with a man, pretty sure it was Tom. Went through the next two days with him about his schedule. I scheduled to get my nails done with tom at 3 on Monday 11/24. I went in a little early because I got out of work early and come to find out they didn't have time for me and asked me to reschedule or go with someone else. The whole time they were kinda giggling about it. I like Tom's work so I'd rather have him do my nails but after being forgotten about and laughed at I'm not exactly thrilled. I drove an hour to get my nails done just for nothing. read more

The service is terrible. I made an appointment for 9:00 and was "done" by 9:15. Will never go there again.

Thanks for nothing Eden nails! Went in 2 weeks ago had vic he was great, go today and i get some Tammy lady with an attitude! She complained from the start on my color choice ... etc! I told her 3 x i was getting Dip! She never soaked my nails and just dremeled the shit outta them ! So i ask her and she mumbled something, she hurt my nails burning them ! I pulled away several times. Then she asks if i want tips. No I am getting dip! So she kept sanding , i pulled away and said forget this you are hurting me and dont have a clue to what I the customer requested!! I go wash my hands and tell the guy up front! And he apparently did not care either! I showed him my nails and told him all the above. But yea no care to help or make it right! read more

Eden Nails - They ruined my nails! You soak dip off!! Not dremel the shit out of them. - Nail Salons Near Me - Gilford, New Hampshire

The absolute worst! I gave this place two different tries a year apart. But I just can't believe this place is even still in business. My first experience consisted of a rude technician (female) and a gel manicure. But most recent experience was unreal. My technician (an older man, can't recall his name) was something else. When removing my gel to. to prepare for a full set of acrylic nails, I nicely asked him to not use the electrical nail file directly on my natural nails, because my nails are extremely thin (in part because of those electric nail files), and the file burns and hurt me every single time. He snapped at me and said your "nails are fine". He literally proceeded to argue with me about the fact that the electric nail file hurts me (trying to convince me I'm crazy and i can't possible be in pain?!) and told me he "has to to use it". I was still being nice (probably nicer than he deserved at this point) and said actually no you don't have to, and requested that he prep my nails with a nail file/buffing block. His annoyance/anger was palpable and visible, and it got very uncomfortable for me and even other customers around me. The women directly around me were shocked and giving me sympathetic glances. He rudely said well I cannot guarantee your nail if I don't use the electric nail file. I was so uncomfortable I wasn't going to argue further and just said fine. He continued to make some unnecessary comments about me being difficult, and remind me multiple times that these nails wouldn't last or be guaranteed...talking down to me incessantly. In hindsight I wish I just got up and walked out, but I was in shock this was happening. But instead I progressively got more frustrated and angry myself and decided to not accept the shitty job he was (perhaps intentionally) doing. I spoke up several times to fix things, including poor shaping and poor polish application. When I was under the light drying my toes, I noticed that my dark nail color was still very transparent and inconsistent. Some nails looked two shades lighter, I went back to him AGAIN to fix it and he angrily applied polish to my nails. When I left there, they still looked rough, but that was as good as they were gonna get. I will NEVER step foot in that salon and warn others to avoid this shitshow. You can believe I will never step foot in that nail salon ever again and warn everyone against Eden Nails. read more

I love this place!!!! It is THE cleanest salon in this area!!! Tony, Jenny and Vanessa are incredible people and do a phenomenal job!! Wish I lived here permanently to have this salon as my permanent salon, but I will certainly come here as long as I live in this area. read more

If I could give this place no stars or minus Stars I would all of the nails that you see look terrible these women don't know good nails and the fact that their price so high is ridiculous they don't even let you wash your hands to get the dust off of your hands they just put lotion on and then paint your nails not only that but they don't shape your nails well I'm telling you go somewhere else read more

I have been going to Eden nails for over a year and I can't say enough about them. Always say good morning when you enter the salon and very polite with out question. My nails have never look better and I always get complements on them no matter where I go. You can go to anyone and they do a great job.. so if you are looking for a great place to get your nails done go to Eden nails and you will not be disappointed.

I made an appointment for a pedicure yesterday with a specific tech, and although that tech was in the shop, she did not do my toes. I heard 2 other people come in that also requested that same tech but weren't given her. That one tech must be the best so they tell you that you'll get her just to get you in there, then they don't have her do the appointment. The guy who did my toes was in a rush, he didn't leave the nails under the light long enough and already there are marks on several toes. The gel was not hardened. In addition to being rushed in and out the water was cold. Who goes on to get a pedicure in cold water?... nobody. They said there wasn't a lot of hot water because they're busy. Then they charged almost 60 dollars for a bad experience and poor job. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. read more

I went here to get a dip powder manicure. I'm not from the area but this seemed like a nice place to go. When the nail tech was applying the dip powder, he did not apply the activator & applied a light cured gel top coat. I've never had this done or seen it done. Now, 3 days later, the dip powder is chipping off. I paid $40. I've never had dip powder chip this quickly. I cannot go back bc, like I said, I'm not from the area. I'll have to see if someone near me can fix it & hopefully not charge much. read more

I made two appointments a week in advance with specific techs. We didn't get the techs I booked and our mani/pedis were done at opposite ends of the salon. My pedicure was good, and the tech did a nice job. However, my nails are not so great. I felt like I was annoying the tech, went in with a picture and showed what I was looking for and ended up with a sloppy paint dFrench manicure on acrylic tips that are so close to the edge of my natural nail everything makes my fingers hurt. My nails have bubbles and ridges and things are stuck in the white paint. This place was recommended, but I'd never go back. read more

My nails and toes were done horribly since the lady that did my them was rushing. She told me she over painted them and the water would soak it off my skin. I could have easily done that myself. read more

Writing this review two weeks after my visit- new to this area so first time here. I called and made a last minute appointment they got me in and despite a lot of people I was in and out with a gel manicure in 40 minutes. It's lasted two weeks and still looks good ! read more

It was very good, better than expected. I needed fast service and they did the spa+nails+pedicure. Great and fast how I requested.

$20 gel color change on acrylic nails. Mid-day Saturday I was the only one in the salon, which was a red flag, but even though there was no business she still seemed rushed. First, she did not even wipe away the dust before applying the polish, even then she went straight in with the color, no base coat. There are still remnants of the color I wanted removed around the edges of the new color. After I left I also had to file away the polish that had overlapped onto my fingers. With no base coat it was no surprise that my nails looked like this just two days later, they are now chipping on a few nails. Nice people, just not that bright. I won't be going back here again. read more

I went for a dip manicure. The tech doing my nails was nice, but did the wrong color and my nails looked sloppy. I was very unimpressed for a $50 service. He offered to paint my nails at the end since he did the wrong color, but I had things to and they looked rough enough already. read more

My favorite Nail Salon in the Lakes Region! It's clean and a friendly atmosphere. Tony always does a wonderful job! He takes his time and I always leave the salon feeling fabulous. Prices are reasonable and there is a boat load of colors to choose from with new colors coming in frequently! I won't take my business anywhere else and it's always the first place I recommend to friends and family! PS: Nails features in photos all done by Tony read more

I've gone to Eden throughout the years but it was my first time going back since having my nails done for prom. I got a regular pedicure and my first dip manicure, both of which came out fantastic! Huong did my nails and she was so sweet and made sure my nails were absolutely perfect! But make sure you call the morning of when you want an appointment for later in the day! read more

Easily the worst pedicure I have ever had. Took about 25 minutes. It was so rushed and there was no one else there waiting. This woman cut me ( every single time I get her she cuts me) My feet hardly look touched and the nail polish looks like a child did it. This was the last straw with Eden. What a waste of time and money. read more

I have been to a couple nail salons and tony and his team our amazing. I have given them pictures of nail designs I like not only do they do as I ask but even better. I have even broken a nail a few days later and they have fixed it ASAP. Love the family feeling you get here as well. I am proud to tell everyone where I get my nails done. Keep up the amazing work read more

I got the worst dip manicure ive ever seen here. It was bumpy, deformed, and the nail tech Tammy made excuses after it was done. And then she had the audacity to charge me extra afterwards because she had to take my nails off!!! I was appalled with the service I received at this nail salon, if I could give zero stars I would. I will never go here again. read more

The worst nail salon! Omg! i got a full set acrylic dip set. They are so damn thin, I am scared they are going to break And hurt me. The color and shape isn't even what I asked for. This is unacceptable, and I got screwed out of my Money for this. this nail set is embarrassing read more

New to the area and was looking for a salon that does dip powder nails because I've had allergic reactions to gel polish and I just find that dip lasts longer. I've been twice. First, the 'manager' seems more interested in his phone than he is on fixing the batteries in the smoke alarm that keeps annoyingly chirping. I'm there to relax and nothing says stress than the constant chirping of a smoke alarm needing batteries. Twice in 6 weeks and he hadn't changed the batteries and after I mentioned it, and offered to pick Up batteries at Walmart, he showed me That he had batteries in the drawer. Seriously? I got Mani/pedis each time. The pedi technicians were kind and detail oriented. The first time I went, I got a dip French manicure . I was surprised when the technician applied the white with gel polish and not dip as my other salons have done. Needless to say, it chipped after a few days. The next time, I got a solid color dip, but the top coat was gel polish. Within 2 days the top coat was peeling off. I was leaving town so I just applied my own top Coat to try to hide the peeling. Also, this salon does not soak off dip polish but instead uses a dremel I prefer a soak off because I find it less damaging to my nails. I won't be back. read more

Manicure and pedicure was ok my nails look ok but I can definitely see where all of the negative comments come from. The nail tech was rude and bossy not really giving me direction and getting irritated when I asked to fix the shape and polish. I didn't get my cuticles cut because of all of the previous reviews about getting cut from being to rough. Personally it is a red flag when they ask you to pay beforehand. You want to make sure they are going to go above and beyond before spending that money. They only take cash tips just FYI (which most places prefer). They are way understaffed for the amount of people that come in. I came for a walk in but I would be pissed if I scheduled an appointment and had to wait and have people rotating every second. I go to a place to relax and do a better job then myself on my nails. Plus they are not clean and reuse equipment that is soaking in blue liquid by where you wash your hands. I don't want other people's dead skin on my body GROSS especially if someone has a fungal problem. I'm used to nail techs in Connecticut so I am definitely spoiled but I feel if you are paying for it you should have a quality experience. read more

Eden Nails - UNDERSTAFFED! - Nail Salons Near Me - Gilford, New Hampshire

Ok in a pinch. Had a pedicure and was told it was $10 more if I wanted my feet scrubbed. Have been having pedicures for years and that was a first. Can't make an appointment unless you are a large party so you have to call the day you want to go in and hope they have time for you. read more

First time here. Received a gift certificate. Came for a pedicure. Water got cold really fast and no jets in the foot bath like other places I have been. The place looked dirty and the massage chair I sat in was falling apart. Scrubbed my feet so much which was definitely needed but I felt like she was going to scrub them to the bone. And she kept hitting the back of my calf with the scrubber which cut up my leg. Staff was super friendly, at least. Had my nails cleaned up after my pedicure. They cut my cuticles and way too much. 3 fingers were left bleeding pretty bad. I left there and went to Walmart's bathroom to scrub my hands with soap and water. Won't be going here again read more

No. Just no. Pedicure overpriced, done in about 20 mins for the price of a full one. Cut my toenails waaaaay too much in a funny shape and along the sides, worried I'll get an infection. Painful pedi too, Not relaxing in any way, no leg massage or pampering. Smelled super-strong Chemical odor inside there, no ventilation. Was glad to leave. read more

I'm from Boston so I found them on yelp. I would definitely come back. It's in a strip mall complex but is very clean and professional. Seemed like locals came there too. I got a pedicure and it was $30. It came out great. I would recommend this nail salon for sure. read more

What a fabulous visit today! Louis did a shellac fill today and he did a wonderful job. I was quite pleased with his attentiveness to detail. He was thorough! I had four broken nails and he replaced all of them easily. We had great conversation through the visit. He made sure the area was clean and the utensils he used were clean. It was a great visit and I cannot wait to go back again! Highly recommend Eden Nails. read more

I wanted to love this place. When I walked in, I did - people were friendly and the salon was super clean. Tools were in a sealed, sterile packet too, unlike a place I tried in Laconia. The man who worked on my nails interrupted frequently to help other customers on the phone and some who walked in. Okay.. I guess. However, my gel manicure was done on Saturday afternoon and now, on Wednesday morning, I have a chipped tip, small chips at the base of several nails, and can see that the color looks a little streaky. This is not the most expensive place around, but for $32 dollars plus tip I would like to get at least 10-14 days before I feel like my nails are looking shabby. read more

I went with my daughter to Eden Nails in Gilford for the first time today for her birthday. The place was beautiful and felt very classy. The receptionist was nice, but wasn't dressed professional in her worn jeans and sweatshirt. I think she was painting her own nails as I waited and she was eating lunch at the desk as I entered(yes MacNCheese). Your receptionist is the face of your business, so maybe someone should take a look at that face a little closer. She also quoted us incorrectly on the prices, so she needs to learn those better or look them up since she wasn't sure. I was referred there from a friend who said it was very clean, and it was. Tony was dressed very professional and another girl had black slacks on, but then there were two girls in jeans working there too. I would have liked to see everyone in black pants. I mentioned it was my first time, so it would have been nice if someone explained how things were done or what to expect. I was told to go sit at the table in the back for drying my nails under the light, but no one came back to get me or tell me how long to sit there. I finally asked a girl how long do I sit here. It would have made the experience a little nicer to know what to expect. I think people assume you know the routine, but I didn't and I told them it was my first time. I was glad the staff spoke English well, but my daughter wished her specialist was friendlier. While there, there was an unfortunate experience with another customer who was rude, offensive and racist(and that is putting it nicely). The staff handled this person in a professional manner and I just wanted to say I felt very sorry for that whole incident. I would have refused service to her immediately. Prices were very comparable, if not a little less than what I have seen. They were very busy and I'm sure they will hire more employees as they grow. Thank you Tony. I will return. read more

Understaffed and do not pay attention to detail. Even after I mentioned not liking them, still no care was put into them because it was so busy that clearly I was being rushed. read more

Our experience here was a waste of time and money. My SIL and I got pedicures and my MIL got a gel manicure. Her manicure took a total of 15 minutes. I get gel manicures often and know that it isn't going last longer than the evening. Also, only 2 out of 10 nails looked good while the others had chips and were horrible. We believe the owner did hers. During my pedicure my cuticle was cut and the man either didn't notice or didn't care! He definitely didn't properly clean it or apologize. He painted it as if it wasn't bleeding all around my nail!!! We went to pamper ourselves on vacation and we spent a total of 30 minutes there with my pedicure lasting about 17 minutes and the manicure lasting 15! Definitely not worth the money and I'm hoping my toe doesn't get infected!!! Find somewhere else to get your mani/pedis done!! read more

Clean, spacious, Syn is the best! A great find in Guilford, NH. The movies are always a bonus.

my nails were good but the person doing my nails made me bleed and needed first aid when i got to the parking

Highly recommend! Very clean. Great choice of gel colors. Great manicure. Will always come here when in Lakes Region. read more

Just a miserable visit - I had an appointment for a simple pedicure. After a 40 (!) minute wait, where my feet were soaking in cool water, I asked repeatedly when someone would come do my pedi. The receptionist cooly dismissed my inquiries. Finally, a very sullen man came and sat in front of me and started the pedi, no pleasantries, no eye contact, just going through the motions. I wasn't looking for conversation, but he was aggressively rude. And he did a bad job: my skin was rough and the polish was uneven. I'm never going back. read more

Very unimpressed. Will never return. Paid $30 for a pedi that the polish looks lousy and nails are uneven. Barely rubbed off the dead skin entire pedi took about 15 minutes. (took longer to dry the polish) read more

The tech hurt me, was peeling layers off my nails and when I looked concerned she told me not to look. Asked me if I wanted them shorter, I said no. Asked if I wanted the same shape (round) I said yes. She squared them all off so I asked her to round them so now unfortunately I have very short nails. The color is lackluster and doesn't look as dark as it was supposed. There are dents in every nail and they all looked rippled at the tips. My cuticles down look nice. And this cost more than what I'm used to paying. I'm so disappointed. read more
