    [[HIGHLIGHT]]I had a lovely experience collaborating with Michi on my nails - I came in with specific thoughts on what art I wanted on which nails, and Michi was precise in mocking it up, confirming pricing (I think Sasa overcharged me last time), and then was patient when there were things I wanted to change from that original plan as the nails were coming along.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'm super happy with how it all came out - with it being pricey, and an occasional treat, I wanted it to be done well, and it was! I also came back to M&M because the last time I took off the gel, it didn't seem to damage my nails much.

    My nails today, November 14. Over a Month since the manicure!

    Yuri is amazing! She did my nails (medium art), as seen in the photos here. I made an appointment for October 12, and wanted to get nails done for my birthday month. I wanted bloody inspired nails (it was also Halloween month but this is just coincidence). Yuri did my nails just as I envisioned it! I also let her know that I have a bleeding disorder, so she didn't cut my cuticles and was very careful when filing to make sure I don't get cut. The salon itself was really busy, and there's music playing. There's also one bathroom stall. For birthday month, they give a discount but you need to pay in cash. I usually don't go to nail salons, but I definitely want to come back here!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]I come here all the time, the only place I trust to get my nails done.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I've had many different artists and they always do a beautiful job. This time Honami took care of me and was absolutely painstaking with the foundation for my nails and they look beautiful for her efforts! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Can't speak highly enough of this place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] From basic nails to intricate nail art, this is the place! Super clean, nice staff, very respectful and calm atmosphere. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love love love![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    CalGel manicure

    The nail studio I always used to go to closed down, so I was panicked about where to now go! I saw that M&M has CalGel, so I decided to give them a try and WOW I am blown away!! The level of detail and time they take is so amazing. My nails have never looked better. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I had Sasa and loved her - thank you Sasa![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend, I'll be back soon :)

    I came here on a recommendation and I was not disappointed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Always amazing! Lots of talent and so welcoming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They're true artist! I highly recommend them!

    Gel manicure with nail art (ghost was $9, other nails were $5 each on top of the gel mani)
    Morgan G.

    Quality: 5 stars Service: 5 stars Price: 2 stars I decided to check out M&M Studio after seeing some of the nail art they've done. (I typically get nail art and prefer soft gel, so M&M seemed perfect. The studio is super clean, and I was taken right around my appointment time, which I really appreciated. My nail tech was SO sweet and paid so much attention to detail -- truly, I don't think I've ever had such a thorough pedicure. The nail art was also exactly what I asked for and I was so impressed by how well she stuck to the design! My issue with this salon is the prices. I am used to paying a premium for my nails, but I ended up paying $170 for a gel manicure, a regular pedicure, and some nail art before tip (most of which was really just a French manicure). I've NEVER paid more than $120 MAX. I can't justify coming back here at those prices, but if you can afford the steep prices, the manicures and pedicures are great quality.

    The perfect mani with Japanese gel
    Alison C.

    I was visiting New York for work and wanted to try a Japanese nail salon during my stay and found this gem on Yelp. They were steps from my hotel and were able to take me as a walk in. Sadly I couldn't get any nail art since it was a last minute appointment, but my gel manicure and regular pedicure were perfection. Everyone in the salon was very friendly and it's a beautiful and relaxing space. Highly recommend this spot, but make sure to make an appointment a few days out!

    Kind and professional techs. Airy and clean studio which is a nice change compared to other places in nyc. Might be pricey but with it. Nails are yet to come

    How much is an acrylic fill?

    They don't do acrylic at this salon.

    How much is a gel manicure? (And how much is nail art?)

    A gel manicure is $45. For nail art, it depends, but I think generally they charge $5 per nail.… 

    When they do a gel extension, do they use tips or do they free form them on nail forms?

    They can do either!

    My nails are super short I want to get extension, will they look thick and fake?

    They will look natural

    I have UV gel nails (the kind of gel that comes in a goopy liquid that you apply with a brush and that dries quickly under a UV lamp). Does this salon do a good job of removing this kind of gel?

    Hi. They use the same kind of gel. They use a machine first, then they soak and finally use the metal to scrape. Hope this helps.

    I highly recommend Miss Bliss for superior quality and service!…read more I was in NY for work and desperately needed to get my nails done before a trade show. I found Miss Bliss on Yelp as a business open Sunday evening and walked in around 5 (they close at 7). All the seats were full and 2 girls already waiting, so they advised the wait would be an hour bc of this existing appointments. No problem for me since I thought this was still plenty of time to get in before closing. They were able to seat me around 5:45. I requested Gel-x (my first time but also my nails were pretty short and damaged from my picking off the last gel as it grew out). Jenny began meticulously working on cleaning my cuticles and sizing me up for the tips. I don't know what they look for, but she definitely worked through the different size options, and even re-applied one of the tips bc she noticed something was off. Honestly, I don't think I have have noticed but I do appreciate her attention to detail, she obviously cares about her craft. So 7 pm rolls around, the 3 other customers that were still there and had wrapped up their nail sessions. Julie, the other nail tech offers to finish up my polish design to let Jenny go home to her kids. I'm definitely feeling bad for keeping them past closing, and I am secretly hoping they rush through the polish so they can leave. NOPE! Julie takes her time on my design, and finishes up with a nice neck and hand massage, warm towel, and we all finally close up at 830. I am super grateful they continued to dedicate time to my service, while not sacrificing quality. Left a fat tip since I know Jenny and Julie will be splitting. Looking forward to coming back here on a future NY trip! Next time I will make an appointment though

    my rating is between 3.5 and 4…read more i called ahead to see if they had any availability, and since they had pretty good ratings on google and yelp, i decided to go for it. my nails were getting way too long anyways. it was a very typical nail salon, the exact kind you would imagine when you think of one. she didn't ask what length i wanted and just went straight for the cut. by the time it came to filing, my nails ended up super short, and i am definitely a longer nail kind of girl. i'm not sure if she simply forgot to ask, but i'd like to think she was looking out for me and knew my nails would chip if they were kept too long. i went for a regular gel manicure since i told myself my nails need a break after this. when she was done, she gave me a shoulder massage, but it was very brief (shorter than the typical massages you get at nail appointments) and only on one shoulder, which felt a little odd. upon leaving, i immediately noticed a flaw on my left thumb. there were visibly tiny bumps, and once i noticed them, they kept bothering me. my conclusion: always go to the nail salon you trust, and that is exactly what i should've done.

    I've been coming to Nams for over 7 years, and I've always loved the vibe here... from the zen…read moreBuddhist music, food and drink offerings, massage chairs, and friendly service, to the clean air and the fact that the owners are always present. It truly creates a relaxing atmosphere. However, I've noticed that the quality of the mani & pedi has declined over the years, which has made me hesitant to return, even though it's in the most convenient location for me. These days when I returned, it's just for last minute color change to avoid more damage. I referred a friend to join me for a mani/pedi once, and she also mentioned that while the ambiance is great, but the owners should get their own mani & pedi done by their technicians, which I completely agree with. While I usually don't like getting my cuticles pushed or cut, I really appreciate that they respected that preference. However, when it comes to removing polish, it's done very recklessly with a lack of attention to detail. On several occasions, they've scraped the skin around the nails--sometimes cutting it to the point where it bled and required a bandage. When I mentioned this to the hostess after she asked for feedback, she dismissed it by saying I have sensitive skin. Since when is it normal for skin to be scraped during a mani/pedi? Additionally, I've had gel mani here twice in a row, and the technician over-shaved to the point where my nails ended up paper-thin that I have to ask the technician to apply extra coats to make up for it. One time, the technician even touched my skin with the machine that is used to shave the gel polish off. I've also had my skin scraped during pedicures, which is concerning. Every time I get a gel mani, within two weeks, the polish would start to lift on the cuticle side, which shows a lack of precision during the application. My friend got a regular mani & pedi here, and one of her nails chipped within a day. While I still love the atmosphere and the owners, the decline in the quality of the services, especially regarding polish removal, nail care, and attention to detail, has made me hesitant on coming back.

As a result, my nail was damaged during the process. It's crucial to remove gel X correctly to prevent damage, and I don't understand how they can offer this service without knowing how to remove it properly. They also didn't even try to provide a discount due to the damage, which reflects awful customer service

    I had a very disappointing experience at this salon…read more When I called to book an appointment, I clearly explained that I already had hard gel on my nails and asked how much it would cost to remove it and get a new gel manicure. They told me $70.20, and no one mentioned that the price could be higher. During the appointment, it became clear that they didn't know how to remove my previous gel properly. It wasn't a "different type of gel" -- they just didn't know how to do it correctly. Instead of properly filing it off with the machine, they only removed the color layer. Then they wrapped my nails in foil and left me sitting there while the nail technician did a full pedicure for another client, without saying a word to me. I was just waiting the entire time. When she finally came back, she seemed surprised that the gel was still there -- and only then started removing it with the machine. She never explained anything to me, and I felt very uncomfortable because they were clearly experimenting on my nails. In any professional salon, hard gel is removed completely with a machine -- not like this. At the end, they told me the total was $164. I was shocked. They said it was because of a "different gel" and a "different service," which wasn't true -- I had told them in advance that it was hard gel. If they had informed me that the price would be higher, I would have decided whether to continue or not. When I calmly explained that no one mentioned this, they refused to listen. Then, when I asked to speak with the employer (the boss/owner) who wasn't there at the time, she got on the phone and spoke very rudely, claiming the nail master had told me about the higher cost -- which was a complete lie. The worst part is that they both started threatening to call the cops, even though I was polite and honest the entire time. I ended up paying with my foreign card, using my last money, but the way they treated me was absolutely unacceptable. While I was talking to the employer, the nail master stood there chewing gum and didn't even look at me. It was clear they were covering for each other. She never told me about any extra charge. I left the salon very upset and disappointed. I believe honesty, professionalism, and communication are the most important parts of good service -- unfortunately, I didn't experience any of that here. How can professional staff, instead of listening or offering any solution, threaten me by saying, "We will call the cops! We will call the cops!!!"? I've been doing my nails regularly for five years, and I've never had such awful quality and service. They didn't know how to remove the gel properly and then put all their mistakes, my waiting time, and the extra costs on me and my pocket. To make things worse, the final work was low quality -- on my pinky finger, they added Gel-X and didn't even file or shorten it. It's longer than my other nails and hurts
