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.

Cost: - Gel manicures here are $40 (incl. cuticle care) - Extra colour: it's an additional $5. - Gel nail removal: $10 (if applied by another place). I'm not sure if they do nail art here as there were no samples to look at but, she did have 2 books of gel nail colours to choose from. I decided to go for a solid white and a white confetti colour. I was very impressed that when she put on the confetti colour, she made sure to arrange the confetti a little so that it was evenly dispersed. Overall, I was quite pleased with the service that I paid for and think that the price is quite fair for the quality of work.

The salon is a cute, simple, always extremely clean and free from the scent of chemicals. There's always a nice aroma and they bonus is they serve you tea that they brew themselves. In terms of service, I have a nail condition, Michelle always pay special attention and makes sure that it looks perfect and that the whole process is comfortable. Whenever got my nails done before I found Mu Nails, I do not get it removed because the ladies will thin out my entire nail bed, which prolongs the recovery process. Michelle, on the other hand, uses the tool to gently remove only the parts with gel overlay. This is something I greatly appreciate as my nails grow super slow and I'm a very hands on and athletic person and it's extremely inconvenient when you're stuck with weak and thin nails for 5 to 6 months. I highly recommend Michelle. If you wish to schedule an appointment, always text her in advance. Friends whom I referred loves Michelle too!

Staff wear masks and they have plexi glass to separate you from the nail tech. I got gel removal and shellac manicure. Total was $50+ tax. They take cash, debit and credit. The nail tech was very thorough and did a great job removing my gel and making it smooth again. She cut and reshaped my nails and removed the dead skin. Her work was pretty good as the shellac was smooth and didn't get any on my cuticles or skin. She made sure to check my nails were evenly shaped compared to my other hand. I also liked their colour selection. Happy I found a new nail place I like!

And I have to say that the quality of the service I received from Kate lives up, if not exceeding, all of my standards. I didn't get a mani, I just changed my polish, and she still gave me a hand massage at the end.

Nails that are on fleek, of course. I'm kidding, I swear I'm not that basic. I don't even own Uggs. And I've only gotten my nails done 3x in my lifetime. 2 of those times were at Nailed It Studios though so I feel it's time to leave them a review. Nailed It Studios is a tiny, appointment-only, cash-only, 3-woman shop, though I think they're hiring more nail techs to keep up with their insane demand. They're located in the weirdly isolated Langham Square mall on Kennedy but are thriving thanks to their impressive Instagram feed and what I'm guessing is a lot of referrals. When your nails last more than a month without chipping/lifting, you're bound to get questions on where you got them done. I got my nails done by Maggie, then Margie. Maggie is extremely sweet but was a little rough when filing one of my fingers. It didn't hurt per say, but it wasn't comfortable, and I left with a bit of swelling that lasted for 2 days. Same thing happened to my friend. That was literally the only flaw though, as my nails survived for the 6 weeks afterwards, with no lifting or dulling. My second time with Margie was even better. I'm a bad customer because I fidget and tend to stiffen up my hands a lot, due to them being perched in permanent typing position. She was patient with me and the nails turned out perfectly, no discomfort at all. That's why she's the boss. Her marble designs are legendary. Bookings are done conveniently on Whatsapp and first timers need to drop a $20 deposit, in person or through e-transfer. I love this. It ensures I have a transcript of my bookings and I get to ask questions and get quotes on designs I find on Pinterest. They take bookings one month in advance. Margie runs the Whatsapp and she's very responsive. Pricing is extremely fair. They only use gel and it starts at $30. $2/nail for matte, $5 for special polishes, and $6-$12+ for intricate designs. $10 to remove polish. Prices are transparent, reasonable, and you pay for quality stuff. They also give a stamp card which gives you 20% off after your 10th visit. As a woman who appreciates nice nails, grande lattes, and a good pun, Nailed It is the perfect place for me to pumpkin spice up my life and my Instagram feed. Next time you need a picture of a perfectly manicured hand curled around a Starbucks cup, you'll know who to Whatsapp. #NailedIt #Blessed (93/100) - 2017

I visited this salon on 02/26/23 after making an appointment for 2 Spa Mani/Pedis and 1 Regular…read moreMani/Pedi with paraffin wax treatment. Well, the receptionist didn't seem to understand what I was saying, so she booked us in for 3 mani/pedis. Much to our dismay when we arrived that Sunday afternoon, there were only 2 employees working, in a salon with a total of 13 tables and chairs, while 1 employee was already with another client. They brought in 2 of us first and my husband was left behind. 1 employee started with my stepdaughter's pedicure and set me up to soak my feet for a pedicure while the other employee finished up with their client. I asked the one that was working on my stepdaughter how they were going to get us all done in 2 hours? We had come in for my stepdaughter's birthday to get all our manicure/pedicure services done at the same time. The 1 employee professed that a 3rd employee was scheduled to work but called that very morning to say she was unable to come in. I replied that they should have contacted me to advise me that they were going to be short-staffed and not able to fulfill our appointment as requested. I told them that we had other events planned after our appointment and that we could not wait around for 4 hours while we all received our services. This is very poor customer service and my husband and I did not end up receiving services that day nor will I ever go back. Also, we ended up getting charged over double the prices that are posted on this web listing, and the services I had requested were not even available!!! This business is very poorly managed and we were very disappointed that we were not able to celebrate my stepdaughter's birthday the way we had planned. We did not feel pampered at all.
