    I've been here twice so far after having been a long time Instagram fan! I sometimes get nervous about committing to extensions/gel, but recently decided to pull the trigger and keep my appointments. Awesome location, comfortable seating and BEAUTIFUL NAILS!!!! Yuho has such an impressive attention to detail, it's incredible. I have never had nails so nicely done. She gave me a great nail shape and I'm literally obsessed. Will be here every 3 weeks for the rest of my life :P

    10/10 would recommend! I'm definitely coming back    (Note: this image is taken 3 days after getting my nails done!)

    This picture speaks for itself; AMAZING art work and an even more amazing team! I had the pleasure of having Mai work her magic on my nails, and am totally obsessed with the finished product. I felt like the team did above and beyond when it came to COVID precautions, and also felt that they did their very best to make my visit as comfortable as possible. 10/10 would recommend! I'm definitely coming back (Note: this image is taken 3 days after getting my nails done!)

    So far, miGak is the best nail art salon that I've visited to date. Their work is immaculate, and they use solid/hard gel, so it stays that way. Appointments open up a month beforehand, and they get snatched up very quickly (within 24 hrs if it's a weekend appointment). My next one is booked - I'll definitely be back!

    Love this place! Such a cool space plus I'm so happy with the gel manicure I got. It's a little expensive but not more so than other places I've been. I can't speak to longevity, since I just got my manicure a few days ago, but they feel solid and I'm sure it'll last.

    Unique and beautiful designs

    I've been coming to MiGak for a few months now, and they just never disappoint! I love the quality of their products, how it wraps and protects my fragile nails. In addition, every staff member is equally talented at designs. My only sorrow is that they aren't closer to home, but I do feel it is worth the hour drive once a month. Thanks MiGak

    Right after manicure

    I used to get SNS dip powder manicures regularly before covid (at another salon) but I recognized that they were starting to damage my nails since they had to lightly file the tops of my nails every time I went. I was interested in trying out the japanese softgel manicures at miGak to see if those would be better for my nails. Pros: Very nice salon! It's cute and clean and very easy to schedule the appointment. The nail technician was really nice and meticulous and I really appreciated how evenly everything was applied. My nails looked great. Cons: Despite how meticulous everything looked, a few of my nails did start to separate from the gel after only 2 days. Now every time I touch my hair, strands get stuck between my nails and the hard gel and it pulls them back a little more. I think the salon does offer to fix any issues that occur within the first 10 days (?) but the reason I got my nails done was to go on a trip for 2 weeks so unfortunately I'm out of luck. For how expensive the manicure was ($75 for a solid color) I would have hoped the manicure would've lasted longer. SNS usually lasted on my nails for a solid 3 weeks before starting to lift. Additionally, I've never encountered a salon that charged so much to have a manicure removed ($45 if I don't get another manicure, $15 on top of the other services if I do) so I will be trying to soak/file the rest of these off myself when the time comes. For this reason I would not go back.

    Beautiful designs but poor execution on nail longevity. I schedule an appointment on April 8th for a full gel extension and hand design total $190. Service is nice however they don't offer any options like water, tea etc at their location while you wait but they are attached to a small marketplace where you can purchase some snacks and beverages. My nails came out beautifully BUT by April 16th I had one nail starting to lift. miGak tried to accommodate by scheduling me the next day for a fix but I had an overlapping appointment so I couldn't make it. Being they are so booked I was unable to come in any other day. It's now April 24 I have three lifting nails and 1 completely off. The price for the service is too expensive for this kind of inconvenience. They have talent with nail art but lack of nail longevity is not worth the price tag.

    I am so in love with my nails. Beautifully crafted shape, very detailed and perfect design and the customer service was excellent. I highly recommend. I saw Ako but they are super talented.

    Shizuka prefers using her own brush
    Kobsupang R.

    I discovered Shizuka through Yelp then checked her Instagram and was able to book my appointment through DMs! Super convenient! She was super nice and very accommodating! I learned lots of tips of how to take care my nails while getting my nails done. For those who are used to getting cuticle trimmed or cut, you might be a little worried (at first) like I was because she used this machine called drill bit to lift cuticle which was a bit weird at first, but I was told that this way was harmless than the old traditional way. She was very patient and took her time to paint my nails. I also loved that she used " Para Gel" since I read that it's a Japanese brand and is very gentle to your nail. It honestly didn't really smell. The place is very open and spacious. My session was about an hour and it didn't feel that long since we had an enjoyable conversation. It's been over a week and my nails still look beautiful! FYI, for just a regular gel manicure, it's $50. It's not cheap, but it's so worth it! She uses high end products and Le Labo Hand lotion at the end of the session :) This place is CASH only and you need to make an appointment.

    Roy Lichtenstein inspired nail art.

    Getting fancy nail art is becoming a bit of a guilty pleasure. Sure, it's expensive and cash only with only one or two nail technicians working there at a time, but you come out of that salon with hands and fingernails that feel like a million bucks. You'll feel pampered and amazing with the nails they give you. Nevermind all those fancy nail places in Manhattan. A trip out to Park Slope to get here is well worth it. They provide the high end Japanese gel polish here. Regular gel mani will run you at least $50. It goes up to a $100 if you're looking for nail art. Bringing photos for inspiration certainly helps them. They are artists though. Tell them what you you're looking for, and they'll give you something better than what you had in mind. I came here twice with a friend who has been a customer of the main technician for several years. I've admired her nails, and I just had to know who the incredible artist was. I've recently had their new technician do my nails, and she does an equally excellent job. My first nail art ever from here was Roy Lichtenstein art, something I wanted to do for a very long time. Shizuka, the main technician, did an incredible and precise job. I showed her a bunch of photos, and she was able to closely replicate the designs. I received several compliments for my nails. I highly urge anyone to book their next nail appointment at miGak. It's a bit of a best kept secret for nail art. Make sure to bring plenty of cash though. It's very pricy yet worth every dime. I've been back only twice, but I know I'll be back several more times. Shizuka is amazing, but the second technician, Nao, does just of an excellent job. My nails have never been happier.

    I've been coming to Azumi for a year now and I won't let anyone else touch the beautiful natural nails she's helped me to grow.

    Located in a hip industrial space occupied by a cafe, salon and nail spot. My neglected cuticles needed tons of TLC. Nao took on my nails with such care, precision and patience. She checked in after each step in my nail restoration experience to ensure that I was satisfied with her work. I got 10 finger nail art and it was a roughly 90 minute appointment. I look forward to returning to miGak again for continued care and great customer service. Just go and check them out! Update: this is my third time seeing Nao and each experience keeps getting better! She even did my nails before my surprise engagement recently.

    Loving this place! The first time I came here was with Azumi. She did an amazing job with a high attention to detail. My nails usually break after getting any gel manicures but they stay strong even after removing the gel! I was hooked. All of their products are shipped from Japan and is of higher quality. The second time I came, I got gel extensions for the first time with Shizuka (owner). Her work is also very professional and efficient which really sold me into becoming a regular here. So glad I found this hidden gem!

The structure gel took a long time so I thought it was going to be perfect and last long. However the very next day (10/3) I got a big chip. Went back to fix it (10/4) and then the next day (10/5) I see that many of my fingers have small chips that are most likely going to turn into big ones. To top it all off my finger is swollen, red, warm and tender!!! The tenderness began a day after on 10/3, as if from an infection. But by 10/5 my finger was swollen as if it was going to burst and 10/6 the cuticle was filled with puss. They did clip my cuticles alottttt. Like first one lady prepped my nails and clipped the cuticles but then the lady who actually applied the gel did it again before she started. So I'm pretty sure it's from that.
