Greeted by Lyly, then ushered to the chair, she did a thorough classic pedi. Then Oan did my classic mani. Both ladies were careful, gentle, and professional. This place is spacious, clean, and my nails are BEEutiful!!! The vibe was pleasant, the other customers were not particularly friendly. The owner came in and she was friendly. read more

It's been SO hard to find a decent, clean, and reliable place to get my nails done. I finally found a place for my manicure and gel-x sets. Kevin and Bee are great at getting me what I want for design and longevity. I've been to their shop 3 times for different designs and non of my nails have chipped OR broken since. That's been unheard of for me because usually my nails have cracked about 2.5 weeks in. Thankfully I haven't had that issue at all. They definitely know what they're doing! On the other hand, I won't be going back for pedicures because it's not the level of detail or care that I want. The clipping and cleaning was fine but I wanted them to file my toenails smoother and thinner. All nails should be as close as possible in shape and size as they can get them, but the woman that did it was not that experienced. So, overall will be back for my manicures and gel-x sets but not for my pedicures. read more

This was my first time at Honey Bee and I will return! Lynn did a fantastic job on my mani/pedi. She took her time and made suggestions about polish. All the staff was kind! read more

I only go to the salon to have Lynn do my pedicure and manicures because she is quick while doing an excellent job and knows/remembers the issues I have with one of my fingers and two of my toes. Lynn is always professional, punctual, and truly cares about her work, If she doesn't like the work she does she will redo it even when I say no need. The salon is clean and Lynn is extremely careful regarding infection control. As always, I enjoy going there and chatting with Lynn and how nice my nails look. read more

Really nice customer service. Polish was yucky and clumpy. Tbh I was not happy with my nails or toes and within 12 hours the polish was chipping and pealing. Price was $62 for basic mani and pedi. I might go back, but would bring my own polish or be more picky on polish quality, read more

Disappointing Experience - Discriminated Against and Disrespected I visited Honey Bee Salon in Albuquerque around 12:39 PM for a pedicure. Upon entering, I was not greeted, which set the tone for the rest of my visit. The person who I assume is the owner or lead stylist asked if I had an appointment. I mentioned that I did not and simply wanted a pedicure. I was seated with my feet in extremely cold water and left waiting until around 1:05 PM before I was finally asked what color I wanted. I chose white with gel and opted for the deluxe pedicure. The service was not at all what I expected. The stylist barely communicated with me and didn't start working on my feet until 1:10 PM. Throughout the process, she seemed to expect me to read her facial expressions to know when to move my feet in and out of the water. I kindly asked if she could verbally guide me since I found it difficult to interpret her nonverbal cues. Instead of accommodating my request, she left to help other clients, leaving me with my foot out of the water for another 10-15 minutes. At that point, I decided to leave without finishing the service. What makes this experience particularly upsetting is that I had just undergone surgery related to breast cancer. I came to the salon expecting to be treated with respect and care like any other customer, but instead, I felt discriminated against because I'm Hispanic and have tattoos. As a hairdresser myself, I know the value of good service and always tip well. Unfortunately, I was treated with utter disrespect at this salon, and I cannot recommend it to anyone. read more

HoneyBee Beauty & Nails - Leaving with no pedicure finished barely let me dry my feet - Nail Salons Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Snuck in pedicures while at Feista! Salon was bright and clean, with a soothing atmosphere. Pedicures was great and my polish lasted a long time. read more

Called this afternoon for a pedicure for my husband and I - they fit us in. Lovely since four other places turned us down for the entire day. Friendly staff, great service, welcoming and we both enjoyed. A nice treat after a two week vacation throughout New Mexico, Utah and Arizona. Thank you again! read more

The most amazing thorough pedicure I've had in years!! Super relaxing atmosphere too!

My regular nail tech was out of town so I had to find another salon to do my nails. I saw HoneyBee was nearby so I called and made an appointment, and they were available on the date/time I wanted. Lily did my nails with Dip polish. She was great, especially with 2 broken nails. The salon was clean, cheerful looking and everyone was friendly and courteous. I highly recommend this place - and they do take walk-ins. read more

Horrible. Ended up cutting me and I left bleeding. They used towels that were on the floor. Never again.

Very polite staff. Was offered bottled water and cookies. Pedicure chairs all have body massage function, which was great! I got the higher-end priced pedicure, because I really wanted all my calluses worked on. Luci (sp?) who was working on my feet was very sensitive to my foot twitches (I'm ticklish) and kept asking if she had hurt me. She did an excellent job diminishing the calluses (including one on top of the knuckle of my big toe). Great foot/calf care and massage. Also got a manicure, again excellent care of nails and surrounding area. Hand massage was great. I did not get color or acrylics, so can't speak to quality of nail art. All staff wore masks and cared about my comfort. The clients mostly did not wear masks. Several 2-3 people groups including a hetro-married couple, so if any men out there would like pedicures, you would be welcome here. read more

I followed my favorite tech, Vannie, to this salon a couple of months ago. First off, Vannie is awesome in every way. She does superlative work and goes the extra mile to care about you not only as a client, but a human being. I love her. Secondly, this shop is located in a modest location, but very easily accessible. It's a ten minute drive from my home in Sawmill. What you find inside is a great vibe where the owner greets each guest and ensures you get the best care possible across the board. I dig the guitars, the music, and fun, welcoming energy of this salon. It is also, and I mean this for real, the absolute cleanest salon I've ever visited in decades of getting my nails done. There's no acrylic dust all over everything as you normally see. It's just spotless. Total thumbs up in my book. read more

This is by far the best nail salon I've found here. Anna did my nails and she was amazing. Took her time and ask my all the questions before I told her what it is I was looking for. I will be back there every time I come. The owner/ manager "B" is truly great at her job. She ask the people in the shop if they were satisfied and if not corrected it. She knows her job. The place is so clean and well maintained. I would recommend this place to anyone new to the area. I drive 30 miles because of all the reviews I read on other salons. Anna I will be back before I go back to Florida. read more

HoneyBee Beauty & Nails - Dip mani with gel topcoat - Nail Salons Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Everyone was really nice and they got me right in, but they rushed my dip set and it came out chunky and uneven. My pedicure was also a little strange because my toenails were cut all crooked. I have given them four stars tho because they were really nice and sometimes that makes all the difference. I'll try them again... read more

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! This place was amazing! Victoria did both my manicure and pedicure. She was very nice and made sure I was comfortable and liked the shape and length of my nails and toenails. This place is very clean and hygienic. All staff is very welcoming and nice! I've been looking for a place to get pedicures and this place exceeded my expectations. Victoria was very thorough and took her time making sure all my dead skin and cuticles were cleaned up and left my toes looking fabulous. read more

Came in to get my acrylics touched up while here for the week. Everyone was very welcoming and they did a wonderful job. She took her time and paid close attention to detail and I left with exactly what I wanted! If I lived in the area this would absolutely be my go to salon. The whole place was very clean as well. read more

Very nice salon, spotless and pleasantly decorated. Enough technicians that we didn't have to wait and they were not overly chatty. Should have asked the young man's name but didn't -- he did a great job on my pedicure! I was a walk-in, put in a massaging chair right away, and soaked my feet for a few minutes before my (male) technician came over. He removed the old polish and lots of callouses, nice nail trim and new polish, and also gave me a quick reflexology session on my poor abused feet. Definitely merits a return visit! read more

This salon is beautiful and has amazing service. Ask for Nathan he is fantastic. Salon was very clean and has a great vibe. I was visiting from California and found this place. read more

It is easy to book, clean, and pleasant environment. I booked a gel manicure and pedicure. First available. I would not recommend to do this. The tech was nice. However Only nail scissors used in trimming toenails and nails. For pedicure I was not sure if these were disinfected or sterilized prior to use with me. The tech cut toenails so that it is now one week later the nail going into the skin causing pain, redness, oozing. The salts and lotion are standard and fine. Heels do not really get treated well but will need care at home. For manicure the nails are slightly different lengths and shapes on different fingers. It would be wise to have a recommended technician. One of my thumbnails broke across a gel manicure after one week. Nice environment but a little after a week I have broken gel nail and infected toe. read more

Clean and friendly place. Have only had good experiences so far. I usually call ahead instead of walking in since they are often pretty busy. read more

Just moved to ABQ and have been doing a lot of beautiful outdoor things and unfortunately that comes at the cost of not so cute feet that desperately needed some love and attention. After checking reviews, HoneyBee seemed to be wonderful! Brought my boyfriend today for pedicures and we were so impressed! Beautiful ambiance, super kind employees, and they gave us water and snacks. We did their 5 step organic special pedicure, only $50 and complete with a paraffin wax application. My feet feel brand new! Thanks!!!!! Definitely will come back! read more

The best nail salon in town! Everyone here is so nice and the mani and pedis are on point! Also very very clean salon and I feel comfortable here. read more

Easy to get an appointment. Price was comparable to other salons I've been to recently. They really appreciated my business.

Very nice and clean space! Staff were super sweet and professional. Did a great job and got us in quickly!

Honey is literally the sweetest!! I had a medical issue while getting my nails done and she was so helpful and made sure I was ok. Also very happy with my nails. Thank you read more

I recently got a gel manicure here and it was a great experience! Staff are very friendly, too. Huge selection of regular polish, gel polish, and dip. The salon was very clean and smelled great- not like a typical nail salon where you mostly smell chemicals. Overall positive experience, and I'll definitely be coming back here in the future! read more

Fabulous! Very clean and friendly! The staff was very professional- would highly recommend!

My experience at Honey bee was nothing but positive, all of the mail techs are super personable and want you to walk out with nails you love. The salon is Upkept and clean. I came in with my nails in pretty rough shape and the nail techs killed it when fixing them. They not only fixed them but told me how I can get them they healthier. I will be going here to get my nails done from now on best nail salon in ABQ read more

This place is amazing. The staff is so nice and do a fabulous job. They also have lots of colors to choose from.

Super nice, friendly family who actually really care about their clients and also do a great job. The cleanest nail salon I think I have ever been to!

HoneyBee Beauty & Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

I am not one to get my nails done regularly but we had a special occasion to attend and I chose HoneyBee based on the great reviews. Although I'd made an appointment, when I showed up I felt like a rushed "walk-in" client. They were not very friendly, but then again, I was not one of their known "regulars". Most of the time I was in the chair, the operator chatted in a foreign language with the other operators and was pretty rough with my hands. I certainly didn't get the feeling I was a valued customer! I spent quite a bit of money to get gel nails because they look so nice. Two weeks later after they had grown out and were ready for a fill, I chose to remove them myself (something I've done before by soaking them in remover). They wouldn't come off but after I'd spend so much for poor treatment, I refused to return to pay them even more more to take them off for me! I eventually worked them loose but my nails were in such bad shape, it took 6 months for them to grow out again. I will never return to this salon and cannot recommend them. read more

I love coming here to get my nails done. The owner and staff are so friendly and they always do a perfect job on my nails.

Friendly, accommodating, and great quality pedicures and manicures. Staff is always smiling

Very, very nice pedicure by Nathan! Reasonable price for a wonderful pampering! Thank you!

One of the best pedicures I've had in a long time. Very friendly service and communication is on point

They treated me awful and they didn't let me feet soak in the water for long. The rude old lady didn't file my toe nails or anything and she let a lot of spiky bits on my toes. They didn't even touch the bottom of my feet or anything which is the reason I went in. Do not recommend this place at all. read more

Just moved to NM from Colorado and had NO idea where to have my acrylic nails done. I read HoneyBee reviews and I'm so glad I took a chance and made an appointment. Nathan cleaned up my old acrylic and Victoria re-based and meticulously applied new gel color. After a beautiful job, the business owner (B, ? I think) made sure I had her text # for future appointment scheduling. Everyone was so sweet but professional, and the salon is clean and feels modern and spacious. Don't hesitate to go to this hidden gem. Next time I'm going to treat myself to a pedicure as well! read more
