Mother Daughter nail day!! We decided we were going to "twin" Easter inspired nails. These cats eye, different colors for each nail, and flowers on each nail took a lot of work and time. Tammy and Tony came through for us with the cutest, most original nails ever!! Thank you Bri & Erika read more

I always see Tami and I'm never disappointed. She does everything from y2k to adorable spring nails. I always look forward to the new designs we come up with. read more

I can't see the reason for all the negative reviews. I've been here twice with my elderly father, and not only has Josephine given him warm, thorough service on his old man feet, but Tammi gave me one of the best pedicures I've ever had. Everyone is super sweet and accommodating. Great little place in Pottstown. read more

Nail Express - Gel French pedi by Tammi - Nail Salons Near Me - Pottstown, Pennsylvania

I used to love going to Tiffany but when she left I had to try out someone else, Maria did my nails in May & did a great job. Today I called and Tony answered I told him I wanted a pedi and full set with Maria, he said she's on vacation but come now & I can do your full set. I know lots of people who seem to like Tony and it's nothing personal but he gets too distracted when doing a task. My cuticles were not cut, making my nails look really outgrown. He constantly kept getting up from the table while putting on my acrylics, he did not paint my nails and had me go right to my pedicure. Then after that I wanted a design on my gel full set the guy who did my pedi couldn't do the design so I waited for Tony to be finished with another customer. I ended up getting another girl to do the gel with designs she was really sweet but honestly just going too quick. I was there at the salon almost 3 hrs, just doesn't make sense. Unfortunately because of these reasons I will not be returning. read more

Been looking for a local place that can do quality work with no luck. Gave this place a try because reviews looked good. I made a 12:15 appointment and when I got there Tony who does the acrylic just sat someone down. I decided I'd get a pedicure otherwise I'd be sitting there waiting. As I waited for a chair I watched as he did her nails, he did her cuticles and all. I was hopeful. Over an hour later it was my turn. I said I wanted coffin shape and matte top coat. They became busy when he finally got to me and rushed my time. Didn't do my cuticles or anything. I had to correct him several times on the shape and it's still not right. Despite me saying I wanted matte topcoat he did clear and when I said something proceeded to make it as though it was my fault. Nails are trashy, definitely not coffin and will have to fix myself. Pedicure is a bit messy as well but don't bad. To give you a comparison, the first photo is from this place. Last photo is my normal nail girl and the quality I'm looking for locally. read more

I've been here 4x now because I'm new to the area and I'm unsure where to go but every time I come I wait so long even if I have an appointment. Today was the last straw as I waited one hour to get my polish removed and I'm leaving with bits of polish still on my nails. Last visit my no chip was bad, not because my nail tech isn't great because she did a wonderful job on my nails the first time. I purposely requested her for my next visit. But she was in a huge hurry and my nails looked really bad and chipped the next day. I tried. I cannot go back. read more

This salon was an experience in and of itself. If a waste of money, time, and patience is all you want, then you got it. The hospitality was good, they were all nice. Me and two other friends walked in and were greeted; they asked for our service reasons and we all replied wanting a full-set acrylic. We came in the salon knowing what we wanted and prepared with reference pictures. We were asked to wait and pick out colors, in the meantime the wait time was about 15-20 mins just for walk-ins which wasn't bad. While we waited colors were compared and picked out all in consideration of the references we picked out. First person to be seated was me, I was able to be serviced for about 20 mins before the guy, Tony, told me to rinse off and wait to get my nails actually painted. As I waited he went to work on another person; it felt like around 30-40 mins that I waited to be painted. My one friend was seated next to me and she was getting her nails done by Tiffany, to which she did her nails straight through to the end. With Tony, I showed my reference picture of a neutral TAN and dark BROWN ombre effect; he indicated to me that was doable. During my wait he showed me the ombre acrylic nail display and told me to choose from there, to which I found a similar color scheme to my picture and showed him, he again indicated that it was doable. I waited several more minutes before I was finally able to get painted. Mind you, Tony stopped working on my nails to do someone else's. I would've been fine with this IF I wasn't waiting over 30 mins to get my nails painted. I had to wait until Tiffany finished my friends nails in order to get my nails finished; my friend whose nails got started around 10-15 mins after mines were started. When I was finally able to get my service finished I noticed something contrasting different from both my reference picture and the nail on the ombre set I showed. Tony got the nail polishes for Tiffany on the behalf of my nails, yet for some reason the colors were two different shades of PURPLE. I hoped my eyes were tricked by bad lighting or anything, but when she put the nail polish on my nail, it was indeed PURPLE. Luckily purple is my favorite color or this experience would've been even less bearable than how it was. The point of this review is to highlight the fact that we, not only me but my friends as well, were scammed! The funny thing is, I got the best result out of this because my friends' results aren't even SIMILAR to their references. Some may ask "Why didn't you guys speak up?" and do what exactly, pay extra for a change? I spent $51.00 on an acrylic ombre full-set, do you think I want or can even afford to pay extra? This was supposed to be a relaxing outing with friends and all we wanted was to get some nice nails, yet the results ended up being a waste of time and money. Truly I can say I'm disappointed, this experience was a 1/5. Think before going here. read more

This place is the worst!! I've been getting my nails done for years and I know what to expect. The service and overall skill of this salon is really bad. The day after I had my nails done the black of my black tips started peeling off on my acrylic nails. That should never have happened unless the products were expired. I was told they could fix my nails but that would weaken them. I just want my money back tbh. I didn't get what I paid for. I'm highly disappointed. Please do not go here. Definitely not worth the time, money or aggravation. read more

Go with Tammi, you won't regret it. Her attention to detail is amazing and I know I can be picky but she's very patient with me. I show her pictures with what I wanted and it's honestly very rarely something simple. Their pedicures are also always great and very relaxing. These are some of the sets Tammi has done. read more

Nails express is awesome, When I lived around the area I would go every 3 weeks for my refill. Tony is very funny and super friendly & Anna always does the best nails!! They just renovated so the atmosphere is super cute and boujie. Love the energy & the service done here 10/10 from me read more

I was in the neighborhood so decided to go on Mother's Day 2023 to pamper myself. Everything was fine until they tried to discourage me from getting a light color for my pedicure. I didn't understand why they were telling me that I shouldn't get the color that I selected and the lady had the nerve to tell me that it wouldn't look good on my complexion. I was so shocked because I've never had anyone say that to me before. I did get the color but was so offended. The girl servicing me didn't say this to me. It was another woman that worked there that did this. I will never go back. I'm giving a 2 star because the girl working on my toes did a decent job. read more

Been here a few times. Always a great experience... I have gone several times- I still find it difficult to find a place who does pedis as well as my New York spa- for manicures and acrylics, Nails Express is for sure number one. read more

I rarely write reviews, in fact this is a first. I have been going to this salon for 3+ years at the same time, 9 am, Saturday, every two weeks faithfully. I travelled 30 minutes each way and have gone to 3 different salons (each time further) to have the same technician do my nails/pedicure for over 7 years. A loyal customer to say the least. Over the past year and a half, the technician was at least 15 minutes late for every appt and I wait. There have double bookings, the owner going to CVS to get nail glue during my appt to complete my nails, etc. but I was still consistent and went to all appts. I approached the owner to move my appt to accommodate the arrival of the technician's arrival time. He agreed to move my appt to 9:15 am; the first time he called me at 9:15 am to see where I was. I informed him, I was in the parking lot on time! After the time change, the technician decided to speak only to her colleagues in her native language. I found that offensive and quite rude! However, she still received the same gratuity, My last trip, with arrival at 9:07 am on my appt day, the technician decided to take another appt. before my arrival and I waited 40 minutes. At this time, I finally came to the realization, my business was no longer important, as the new owners were established and could make more revenue on walk-ins and new customers and I could save a lot of time and gas going elsewhere. This was an eye opening experience to say the least. read more

I keep coming back here because they're amazing. I always call before I come in, so I can't speak on walk-in's, aside from that they move quickly and do a great job at getting customers in. My nails always look great when leaving and the color lasts. Great prices as well. read more

Well where do I began, I've been going to this nail salon for a few months now and at first I really like it. Because the guy who usually does my nails does a decent job. But today I went in and had a horrible experience. I guess they hired some new lady who doesn't know what she's doing! I like to have my cuticles pushed back so that my nails do not look outgrown at the time I'm finished getting a new manicure but the lady refused to do it and started mumbling something to her coworker in a different language and I could tell it was about me. My nails look grown out and not even painted properly, there's spaces everywhere and the paint it's bubbling and chipped! I will never go back and I'm Warning everyone not to go there read more

I have been going to nail express for a couple months now. I typically get a gel manicure and am usually pretty happy with the results. A few days ago I decided to get acrylic. She did a fine job, not amazing, but i ended up not liking the color and design I asked for. I went back in a couple days later to change the color and have them fix the shape a bit. Not only are my nails embarrassingly bad but I'm in so much pain from them cutting me everywhere with the file. I bled several different times while they were doing my nails. They put on some liquid bandage to make me stop bleeding which burned like crazy. Then kept picking at my cuts to wipe the blood away. It was a disaster. I went shopping afterwards and had to leave because it hurt too much to use my hands. This isn't the first time I came away from this salon with battle wounds, I also got a manicure and the lady used the drill to clean up my cuticles. PAINFUL. It probably depends on who does your nails but I've had at least three of them put me through a lot of pain. Beware! read more

Nail Express - Five week old nails still looking perfect! - Nail Salons Near Me - Pottstown, Pennsylvania

We just moved here last fall. And I have been to a couple of other nail salons. But I must say nail expressions is the place I will be doing business with from now on. They did my nails exactly the way I wanted them. They are extremely courteous kind and professional. And they are also very affordable. I found my place read more

Never ever again! Made an appointment and took me 30 mins past the time. The guy who first did my nails was annoyed I had dip powder on them. He made me wait to soak my dip powder and took someone else. He then sent me to another person 30 mins after. They are very rude. I felt very uncomfortable. Never coming back. read more

I would give it a zero, but yelp doesn't have one. I am new to the area and tried here twice. It was awful. My nails are misshaped, they caught my skin several times and I have cuts. I pick three different colors before they actually had it. The gel color is all over my fingers and it looks like a 5-year-old painted them. They are rude and I will not go back or suggest that anyone I know go there. They aren't very clean either. Didn't sanitize between people. Overall, the worse nail experience I ever had. read more

friendly staff, very affordable and extremely clean 5 stars for me! finally found my nail spa! read more

Nail Express - Best place i've been to in a long time staff is very friendly and i will be going back for sure! pink ombré nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Pottstown, Pennsylvania

Figured to try this place out heard some good things about them. First the price booklet that they have is out of date and they don't do some of the services still listed. I showed a design of the nails that I wanted I was immediately told no can do choose something simpler. They have/had little to none diamonds/jewels. I finally pick a color and he gets finished and sets my hands to dry under the uv light. Just as he finishes up my hand gets grabbed and he starts to drill all the color back off of each finger ON BOTH HANDS. The guy had to start all over because the polish started bubbling under the light due to the fact that he used and put the clear BASE polish on top instead of the top clear coat that was supposed to be used. So after sitting for an extra 30mins I've decided not to proceed with my pedicure due to the amount of time I've already been there. Fast forward it's 2 days later and my polish is already chipping and coming off. Side note- my friend went with me and just got a color change on her toes and they charged her 20 dollars -_- My gel refill was $35 for a REFILL that's the price of a full set. Just ridiculous smh I won't be going back. read more

I wish Yelp would allow zero stars. I came here for the first time a week ago. A week later two nails fall off!! I go back to get them fixed and the owner treated me so rudely!! she began to yell in front of customers when I did not know the color I had. was i supposed to remember? she then proceeds to start to do my nails.. she then stops and gets up to start doing a mani and pedi to two other women who came in after me. I waited a while till she came back to finish which was extremely frustrating. she was really rough and rude the entire time. when i go to pay, she says no charge loudly and said "oh because you said you came here a week ago right?" acting like i was lying! All i wanted was for her to fix my nails!! i would have paid! But she chooses to try to humiliate!! DO NOT COME HERE. DIRTY BAD ENVIRONMENT RACIST AND RUDE!!! read more

The first time I went it was okay, the technician made me bleed around the cuticles but other than that I was happy with the way my acrylics and gel turned out. I went back to get them refilled and the technician did such a poor job. I felt like he rushed and got gel all over my skin so I had to come home and clean them up! Also very rude, took a facetime call, 4 other phone calls, and was texting during my appointment! read more

the comfiest and cleanest salon around. all the staff does great work and super friendly. they take their time and my nails are always exactly what i ask for. i went today, 2 days before xmas and im not a regular or anything and they still gave me a christmas gift as a left. very sweet! read more

Absolutely the best nail salon! Trish and Sam (owners) are equally fantastic nail techs and they always fit me in for an appt - even if I call hours ahead or walk in. Fast, clean and great service - with fair and competitive prices. Excellent nail results every single time...I have to try a pedicure next! read more

Can I give them no star? Walked in to a practically empty salon. 3 customers getting serviced, no wait at all. But I was promptly told that they were booked. Again, there was no wait and they said they accept walkins. I can only guess that they refused to service me based on my appearance. Came to VP Nails after and am now sitting in a chair enjoying my lovely pedi. read more

Love this salon!!!! Very friendly owners and they do an impeccable job I always try to get an appointment with Sam, he does wonders!!!

Sam is simply the best. He's my nail God and I'm not even from the area. Here on an outage at limerick and I wish I can take him back to nyc with me! read more

Been going to Nail Express for about 4 months now and I have to say they are the best! I usually get gel French manicure and it lasts almost 3 weeks and I'm very hard on my nails. Kim is the best!! Would recommend highly!! read more

Great family owned salon with incredible prices. The people are so kind and I can always get an appointment. I've been there 3 times already, and I got 2 regular manicures, and a gel. The gel stayed for more than 2 weeks and my grandmother's regular manicure stayed for about 5 weeks. I would recommend this nail salon to anyone looking for an affordable spa day! read more

I have been going to Nails Express for 9 years! Trish and Sam (the owners) are great nail technicians that always make my nails look great and me feel like a million bucks.

They are the only ones in Pottstown that I trust my nails to and would highly recommend them to anyone! read more
