The Nail Social can be found inside a strip mall, between A Corner Cafe (which surprisingly is not…read moreon a corner, lol) and Yin Ji Chang Fen with plenty of parking available. Since my family and I were staying in Markham during our last vacation, I wanted to find a nail salon in the city, which ended up leading me here (which I found on Yelp). There wasn't any information about price though on this Yelp page but am happy to add these photos of the pricing that I took when I arrived. I initially had made an appointment for Tuesday, around 2 pm the day before. However, my lunch with one of my aunts and uncles went longer than expected and so I had to call to cancel and ask if I could change the time to a later time. The girl on the phone was so kind and told me because I wasn't exactly sure what time I would be available to have my nails done, she suggested to call before coming in just so I would not have to wait if I was to do a walk in. So later that day, I called prior and the girl told me to come in, so I walked in around 4:55 pm and waited a little over 10 minutes before being asked to take a seat by an employee named Joey. I wanted to get gel nails, which is different from shellac nails for those that may confuse the two (especially since sometimes nail salons will use both words interchangeably but they are not the same). Shellac nails are kind of like a semi- permanent polish, which doesn't last as long (and also is cheaper than gel nails). But gel nails are a semi- permanent gel nail, which does last a few weeks longer. Gel nails cost $75 for a new set. I also wanted a design (I almost always get a design with my nails, which does cost extra but I don't mind), which I had a photo on my phone to show Joey. I told her what design I wanted for my ring finger and middle finger and the same on the other hand (so total of 4 nails that would have design). Joey told me that cost would be $75, in which she didn't charge me extra for design (so I made sure to tip her higher because of it). I liked that Joey took a photo of the design I had in mind with her camera phone so that she could refer to it on her own phone while she was painting my nails. Joey definitely is very talented and I just loved the design she had, as I picked an ice cream cone with sprinkles. She also helped me to find the right colors that I wanted (I wasn't looking for the exact shade and am pretty flexible). I really loved the way the design and the pink color I picked for the rest of my nails, as it really went with the ice cream theme. Although Joey told me that my nails would last 4 weeks, my nails lasted beyond that (and never chipped or lifted. Being in health care, I don't baby my hands and I also wash them constantly, honestly these were probably the best nails I have ever had done). The only reason I took them off was because it really need a fill since my nails had grown over. Joey told me that she had not done an ice cream cone before and she was also happy with her results too. Now this is my first time getting my nails done in Canada and am not sure if it is not customary to get a hand massage and lotion on your hands after a manicure or not. I didn't get one after this manicure but have always had it done with the nail salons in California and also in Hawaii where I have gotten my nails done. Not a big deal, but I wished I had brought my own lotion to put on since my hands were dry. But overall, I am very happy with my experience and would come back the next time I visit Markham in the future. Please note that they do accept credit card but there is a credit card fee. I ended up paying cash.

My nails were not filed evenly and some are strangely angled and not even filed straight. Very little was done to smooth the heels of my feet and they we left rather rough. I'm also not a fan of metal scrappers being used for exfoliating. The polish was thick and gloopy and it left little bubbles and a strange looking texture on my nails. There was quite a bit of nail polish left on my skin which I had to clean off once I got home. There was no tissue wrapped between my toes to keep them apart and the polish was applied before putting my flip flops on so putting them on after only ruined what had been done to that point. The second coat of polish was more to fix the mess that putting on the flip flops made. The outcome defeated the purpose of getting a pedicure. I'll have to take it off and redo it myself before stepping out in sandals. The calf massage was nice though. Live and learn.

She got bio gel (gel tips - not acrylics but I got a regular shellac manicure) I absolutely love their colour selection, I feel like there were so many options I didn't even know which to pick! I showed my nail tech a photo of the nails I wanted for the wedding I was attending and she did a great job! She really helped me pick the correct shade of pinky nude that I was looking for, and made sure I liked it as well. She kept complimenting the design I chose which made me feel very good about my decision haha. She was super sweet and I had a great experience overall. Definitely will be coming back! Pros: - LOTS of nail colours to choose from - does all types of nails (regular, shellac, bio gel, acrylic, etc.) - cleanly (has acrylic dividers between nail tech and customer due to covid) - very friendly staff - reasonably priced! Cons: - not the most modern looking salon
