Yessssssssss. I think I found my new place! I went here and waited like 45 minutes for a mani/pedi because of the good reviews posted on here and I am SO glad that I did. The mani/pedi was dirt cheap and Tina did an incredible job! I can't find anywhere that will really get down and dirty with my cuticles except here. Amazing. I doubt I'll be going elsewhere for a while. Worth the wait!!! read more

Nail Salon - This is amazing. Two week old gel and no chips, cracking, or broken nails! I love this place so much. - Nail Salons Near Me - New York, New York

This is my second time in this salon, and I've resolved to not come here again. The salon is clean, but the service is subpar. If anyone plans to come here, early morning and afternoons are empty during the week. Fill ins are $17, coffin or stiletto shapes are an extra $5, and French is an extra $11. My nail tech, Jenny, was on her phone the entire time. She rushed through my nails and when she smudged the glitter with a top coat, she appeared annoyed when I asked her to fix it. I brought my own French nude and topcoat because last time the nail polish chipped the next day. I believe this time the top coat was applied incorrectly because the salon's black polish is already chipping on four of my fingers. The lines are freehand and sloppy, which bothers me to no end. Overall, the color selection is small, and most of the bottles look very old and are separating. I also would not recommend getting eyebrows done here. For the amount I spent on mediocre nails, I'd expected a better outcome for my brows. Alas, she shuffled me into a room that looked unclean and swiftly slopped wax onto my face and ripped it off. No combing or shaping, scissor cutting, and minimal tweezing. I do a better job when I maintain them myself. I strongly felt the impression that I wasn't welcome, so I will find another salon for nail services. read more

Wow! I've never been to a salon that gave me a gel mani that lasted 3 weeks exact (Jan 17th - Feb 8). It could have lasted me longer if I didn't care about the large unpainted gap between the gel and my cuticle. Steven was attentive and was excited that I found out about the store through positive reviews. It's hard to find quality salons in the Bronx mainly because natives aren't used to writing about their experiences (though that's changing). So the fact that the store had more than 3 reviews equaling 5 stars meant something. Back to the excellent work: I swam and sat in a Jacuzzi the second weekend I got this and the gel was not phrased. I do a lot of dishwashing and work around the house and my hands get dry and hard... The gel was not phrased. Lastly my hair is mainly kept as an afro meaning to maintain it, nightly I massage my oils and my Shea butter. So my hands are drenched in oils and still... The gel was not phrased. No chips! This is what a gel should be but it's a shame, a lot of shops aren't skilled or equipped enough to carry out proper technique, so I shouldn't be amazed as I am here. Nonetheless. I'm glad I found out about Steven and his store. I haven't done anything else yet but just the selection of quality nail polish is unseen. I definitely have never seen that in Manhattan. I'd give this place 5 stars but I have to duck 1 point because the shop does not open on time. I drove 2 miles this morning only to arrive at a shop that was not open yet. The door sign said "Open a 9am -Saturday" it was 9:37 and they were just opening their doors to a toll of 4 people ahead of me. Please change your time to 10am if you're going to be 40 minutes late. read more

HORRIBLE customer service!!!!!!!!!!! I came in to get a nail fixed and I asked the male nail tech for a request so all my nails look identical. He began to yell at me that I need to get a fresh new set of nails. After I told him no he had a horrible attitude and raised his voice causing a whole scene. I felt completely disrespected and will not recommend this place AT ALL!!!!! read more

This place is dirty the place is never cleaned. Dirty floor / nails. Workers are rude always speaking in their language. Steven doesn't cover his mouth when he coughs - he coughs on you no manners. Sometimes the nail clippers and other tools used on your hands and feet are not being sterilized. I got a very bad infection and the salon acted as if I didn't get it from them. Only place I use. The employees are always on the phone don't focus on you. read more

Went in for the first time today & staff was very friendly. Salon was clean & had updated nail polishes. Came in before the evening rush and was attended to quickly. Nail technician took her time and did a beautiful job. This place is fairly priced for work. Only down fall is the extra charged for my natural oval nails. Since I wrap my nails w/ acrylic, I was charged for the extra fee of having "pointy, oval or coffin style" nail. I'd understand the charge if the nail is asked to be shaped to those styles but mine are already naturally shaped oval. I wasn't going to have a disagreement on it. Never the less. Good spot to get a mani/pedi. Will return and recommend to othe read more

I'm writing this review just as I'm leaving the establishment. I came here for a pedicure, $13 dollars isn't bad so I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt but that's exactly what I got, a $13 job. They weren't very polite or cordial, didn't ask what color I wanted or how I'd like them shaped, just weren't very friendly overall. The only plus is that the girl who did my toes was able to remove my ingrowns. Besides that, my feet were barely scrubbed and the pedi in its entirety lasted about 25 minutes. Another con is that who I'm assuming is the owner was extremely rude to me. Upon sitting down I asked how much the sandals were if I wanted to take them to go, they told me the price, I said alright. I did NOT say I was going to buy them but when I went to pay they charged me for them anyway. I'm not going to fret over the dollar but he was extremely rude with how he went about it. He told me I said I was buying them (which as I stated previously, I did not) so they already brought it out and tore the plastic, therefore I had to buy them because he can't use them again. Scolding clients with hand gestures is not a good move, nor is waving their change back at them. I considered returning to this place because the girl was able to take my ingrowns out but service is EVERYTHING. Maybe this is how they are on Sundays, or maybe not, but I'm not going to find out. Extremely rude, never coming back. read more

Came here my trial of local nail salons route. Pros: Location (if you live nearby) Cons: -OUTDATED -no light in the bathroom hence why the door is not being fixed as it doesn't close at all!! -long long long wait -antique techniques: my gel color was soaked off in a metal bowl of acetone that was placed top of a portable stove top burner. I was asked to turn it on and off depending on the temperature of acetone. -fumes (guessing from the acetone being boiled all day long) -the acetone is re-used. My soaked off gel was filtered out from the acetone and placed back into the acetone bottle. -rude owner. If you looking for a quality mani/pedi--avoid this place. Doesn't seem sanitary nor customer service oriented. read more

When I went there I want to get a pedicure and acrylic. My pedicure was alright but my acrylic was terrible, my friend and I was treated terribly. They constantly kept skipping me and he had been disrespectful to my friend and I. When I accidentally put my hand up he was mad. I actually don't know it's because we are younger so he skipped me and my friend but I really thought that they deserve a one star. After two days both of our nails were in pain . Also , acrylic supposed to last two weeks but when we got it done my I needed a fill-in after four days and my friend broke her nail after one week from going. read more

Omg, this is a great place to go and get your nails done.

I go in here and show him a design that is very similar to the ones he has hanging up on the display behind me. And he says he can't do it. It's a marble nail design. He says he don't know how to do it, really you strip the colors across and blend them. Horrible customer service read more

In preparing for my January 2016 trip to Jamaica, I wanted to represent. I searched and found a picture, TA DAAA!!!! Steven nailed it as always. He didn't know what the colors were about, but even he was impressed with the outcome. Then when I found he could bling them for me, I was done! Yeah Mon, my nails were a HIT in Jamaica. They loved, loved, loved them and so do I. This design definitely gets 5 *****! :) read more

I got my nails done at my normal spot and realized my girl was falling off. For the past month I've been unhappy with her work and realized it was time to move on. I was surfing Yelp and came across Nail Salon and all the reviews I saw about Steven lured me here. LOVE ME SOME STEVEN!!! He curved my nails to perfection and my color was spot on. PLUS, it's right next door to Havana which is one of my fave Cuban spots. I found my new nail salon. :] read more

I came in yesterday with nails that was done about a week ago at the nail salon in palisades mall. It was sloppy; too much acrylic and polish was applied which made my nails thick, roundish, and a bit lumpy. I left #1 Nail Salon with a job well done by Steve. He shaved off most of my acrylic, which took a total of 10 mins to do while the machine was on max speed. Steve is the best, but he might not be everybody's cup of tea. He's a no bullshit type of guy and will tell you how it is, which is what I like about him. And some people might find it as being rude but I love it. Great job Steve. I would've gave 5 stars because it was clean, had a great selection of nail polishes, and my nails came out great... However, it was a long wait. I came in around 6:30 pm and didn't leave till 9:10 pm, so that is the only downfall. But nevertheless I absolutely love my nails. read more

Just moved to westchester and so far I've had terrible experiences with my nails. Found this place on yelp and read the reviews so I decided to give it a try. I specifically asked for Steven and he was more than happy to do my nails. I have to say that I was so happy with the job he did. He does great work. His wife Jenny did an excellent job on my pedicure as well. It looks like they now have a new customer. I definitely recommend this place to others. read more

I have been going to Jenny for over 7 years and I absolutely love her & Steven. They do great work at affordable and convenient prices. Their salon is always clean and has state of the art equipment with over 150 GEL COLORS! I love how Jenny does nails so much that my ENTIRE family goes to either her, Steve, or Tom. If you're looking for a great nail salon in the Bronx, then this is my top choice. read more

This place is GREAT! So far the best place in the Bronx and I would know because I've tried EVERYWHERE. My nails look amazing and I am very particular about my nails. I hate when the nail polish touches me skin/cuticles. This is the first place in the Bronx I could honestly did a fantastic job. I will always go here! read more

I started going to this salon last year since it is close to my job. Yesterday, i went home (40 Mins) to get my 5 year old and drove back to this salon to have mommy and daughter mani and pedi's. The lady that always does my nails was busy so the owner was going to do my nails and my daughter got my lady :-) My daughter was very happy. The owner kept telling me that my nails were going to look stupid with french design because they are really short. So i told him ok your the professional just make them white.. he said no a color.. then he said are you sure you want french over three times... finally he said ok i will do french.. He did and they came out to my liking. After my nails were done, i was getting my french pedi. My lady again was busy so i was going to the next available lady since it is late now. Before i went the owner suggested i pay for the services first and i agreed. Because i was paying Credit Card they charge a fee so we figured out how much it was for the service and for the tax and tip. I explained to him i wanted to give 6 dollars for my daughter's lady and 4 to him and 4 to the lady who was going to do my french pedi. So i paid and went to sit down and my lady was done so i was happy she told me to sit with her and she will do my french pedi. I then looked at the owner and said ok so now give her 10 and you 4 ok? I don't know what happened. He cursed me out and told me i don't talk to him like that and he's the owner and started talking in another language. My daughter just looked shocked and didn't know what happened, i didn't know what happened. The lady told me not to pay attention and i asked her what did i do wrong? Was he unhappy with the tip? Did he misunderstand me? What happened? Did i say something wrong? She just told me to ignore him. He kept on and i was so embarrassed but i didn't say anything because i didn't want to scare my daughter anymore then she was already. I was so upset that he reacted that way and he did it front of a little girl my daughter. As an owner you don't treat your customers like that. He threw my tip and said i don't want your f money. I am so shocked and disappointed that my special time with my daughter ended up like that. And, then the lady asked me to pay 3 dollars more for french mani because he didn't charge me and since he didn't want my tip to give her 3 dollars out of it to pay for the service. Shocked, Disappointed, Angry and Upset. read more

Excellent service. I read the reviews on yelp trying to find a better location since my old salon was getting sloppy with their service. This has been the best find! Clean, quick, and very thorough. Highly recommended. read more

Never coming here again. Customer service is terrible. Told the woman I was putting money in the meter and she took someone else while I went to the car. Then when she was done, took one of her regulars before me and said she had been here. Spent and hour+ waiting and walked out when she lied straight to my face! read more

Great, quick service for a great price. Clean and well lit. Reminds me of higher end salons except for the prices.

This place is deeep! But i came bc i couldnt take the risk of getting an infection or ingrown nail from some shady shop on fordham. At this salon, its fairly big and its very clean/tidy. Their goal is to work fast yet efficiently and i love both. Steven did my nails and it came out nicely. Tried out square nails and its just too meh for me, so next time im definitely getting my fierce almond/stiletto read more

Vanessa is great! She takes her time and is very thorough when doing nails. I would recommend coming here if you're in the area. A tip though: have time on your hands. The wait time can be kind of long because of so many customers. Other than that though, really liked the results of my mani pedi. read more

I'm a new customer! It's been so hard for me to find a nail salon I feel comfortable in and satisfied when I leave. Jenny did my nails today and since I work as a cashier Monday thru Friday, my nails and the skin around them are always looking terrible. No one has ever made it look so good. Now I won't be embarrassed when customers look down at my engagement ring! Lol! Thank you Jenny! read more

I love the fact that when u make an appointment with them they take you as soon as u walk in. They're extra clean and use disposable nail tools on each and every client.

I always go to Mina if she isn't available Caitlyn is my next choice! read more

Pretty solid nail spot in the BX, largest selection of gel nail polish everrrrrrrr!

I been going to this nail salon for about 2 years now. And I swear I'll never go to another place again. I've been to like every salon in the Morris park and Tremont area and they all sucked and over charged me. I used to pay 50 bucks just for my nails and 20-30 on feet!! I know crazy ! Not only I would pay that much but my gel would last for for like a week and a half! So one day I just decided to try this place out and boy was I happy not only did the manicure lasted 3 weeks but Steven ( shops owner ) is literally a perfectionist!!! With #1 nails inc I pay***drum roll*** 42 bucks for the best gel manicure and pedicure!!!! If Steven isn't available, the other girls do just as good. He must have really trained his staff to be as good as him. I am very happy I found this gem in the Bronx. After you get your nails done check out the bakery next door or Havanas cafe on the corner lol that's what I usually do. read more

I absolutely loooooove this place!! I've always gone to different nail salons, never really stuck with just one. But I've been going here for about 6 months now and haven't gone elsewhere since. I always do my mani & pedi with Tina. She's great! Highly Recommend! read more

I love this nail salon, my nails are so beautiful and healthy since I started coming here. Steven is the bomb, I have been doing my nails for over 20 years and never bumped into someone so good with the nail craft. You go Steven!! read more

This place is clean, professional, they know what their doing, and listen to you! My nails last up to 3 weeks and they still look fine.
