Beautiful salon, excellent service. A little pricey for basic services, but totally worth it given the extras they throw in (paraffin, hot stone massage, etc.). I've has three or four pedicures here since they opened And they've all been excellent. Everything is new and very clean. There's complimentary coffee and tea and a great polish selection. read more

Attractive salon and clean. The staff can be hit or miss. My complaint is that the service is standard, but very Expensive. The idea that your hands are dipped in paraffin and a 1 minute shoulder massage sounds good, but you are paying top money for this. My okey pedicure was barely 30 minutes plus they wanted to charge 10.00 to take gel off fingers. read more

I don't typically post reviews but I was really disappointed especially after a friend highly recommended it. The salon is very clean, tools are individually sterilized and sealed for a fresh set for each customer just like the dentist. I had the basic pedicure which came with a foot massage, hot stone rub and parafin wax on heels. While all of this sounds great the basics of what a pedicure were missing. She didnt cut my nails as short as I asked, she didn't clean under the nails and while the pumice tool she used was a new scrubby pad, it was more like extra fine sand paper which was useless and she barely scrubbed my heels at all. I brought my own OPI polish and UV top coat. The color was applied unevenly and she seemed annoyed when I asked her to use my top coat which she did reluctantly after her top coat. They don't use UV light dryers so I ended up with bubbles since i had so many top coats. I think she was more interested in up selling me on another fancy pedicure like lemon or a long massage. This was an expensive pedicure $35 for inconsistent color and rough heels. I would prefer smooth heels, with consistent color and shorter length to all the bells and whistles. I had to go in a pinch but will not return other that to get a gift certificate for my friend who likes Aria. read more

This place is big, bright, and airy, right on Main St. in Wakefield. We just moved here, I needed to find a nail salon, and figured I'd give this place a try. I went in without an appointment and asked for a gel manicure and a pedicure. Kathy, who I believe is the owner, did my manicure. She spent most of the time talking to the other technicians or yelling across the store directing others, which is fine and doesn't usually bother me. She apologized for their chatter, saying they were talking about the Korean culture. Oh, okay? But my manicure was not good. She was distracted the whole time, barely filed my nails, didn't even attempt to make them a uniform length across hands, and some of the polish has air bubbles in it or is thicker in some areas. I'm still peeling polish off my skin days later (which is incredibly annoying with a gel manicure as I'm trying not to ruin the rest of the polish it's attached to). The back massage and paraffin wax were a nice touch though, and the pedicure was good. While my toes were drying, I got another shoulder/back massage, which was unnecessary. They took my card while my nails were drying and never offered or told me whether I could or couldn't tip on the card. Then I had to track down my nail technicians to tip them when they were with other customers. I'd rather just pay myself at the front desk at the end. It's pricey - $35 for the pedicure and $35 for the gel polish, but they gave me a grand opening coupon for $15 off. I'm not sure I would pay full price, maybe as a splurge if I was satisfied with what I got, but I wasn't. There are lots of other nail salons within walking distance that I'll check out before coming back here. read more

This place is amazing. The decor is wonderful, technicians are friendly and attentive and the polish is new and organized. Hot stone and back massage with every mani/pedi and paraffin treatments too!!! Very clean, spa like atmosphere and price points are reasonable for this luxurious nail spa. read more

I usually don't write reviews but I was really disappointed in both the service and quality of a gel manicure here. My gel manicure barely lasted a week before it start chipping on multiple nails. I've never had this happen when I have received gel manicures at other salons. I also thought my manicure itself felt very rushed and hurried. I appreciate the fact that they give a quick shoulder massage afterwards but it felt like the technician was annoyed to even do it and because of that I would have preferred it be skipped altogether. The place was beautiful and clean but given the service and quality I won't be going back. read more

Hadn't had my nails done in several months & went to Aria today for a pedicure and French gel manicure. I don't know what others were taking about, perhaps they had a bad technician? My visit included excellent service, very clean salon. Had new tips put on, Jenny did a fabulous job - very natural looking. Aria includes added services that others charge extra for - hot stone massage on legs / shoulders as well as paraffin wax on heels / hands. An added bonus for the New Year - hand cream and coupons! read more

I had heard great reviews about ARIA-and they were right! I had the Shea Butter spa pedicure - cost a bit more than I had planned to spend, but was worth every penny! The technician was very detail-oriented and thorough. The staff was friendly. The neck massage after the pedicure was the icing on the cake! I'm a fan! read more

I have come to Aria regularly for over two years. After my last experience I am not going back. Instead of feeling relaxed I was feeling like I was a bother to the clinjcian. I considered leaving in the middle of it. When I tried to explain I had a split nail she was just not interested. Then when I wanted to pay with my debit card she said I couldn't. Yet the gal next to me said she had paid with hers. I know they like cash for tips and I was prepared for that. Anyway I am sure I can find a place where the client is treated better and it will even cost less! read more

Gel nails chipped after 2 days. Emailed them...horrible customer service. Will never go back!

I recently had a pedicure here and was it mediocre at best. The male manicurist was rough he clipped my skin nail polish looked awful!! I went with a friend and i was done way before her, i felt like he totally rushed through it. I wish there was an option for zero stars I will NEVER go here again!!! read more

They did a great job on my nails but it should not have taken 2.5 hours for a fill and color. The nail tech also complained the entire time that it was taking so long. read more

Had the nicest pedicure here! The facilities are beautiful, staff was kind and attentive. They took us in right away. It was just a basic pedicure but was complete with hot stones and shoulder massage. It was very enjoyable and did not feel rushed at all! read more

I have been coming to Aria for over 5 years now. I love the people, especially the owner (I think) and her daughter. I wish there was more consistency in the quality between all of the nail techs. Sometimes my nails come out amazing and sometimes I get a great massage, rarely both in one service. This is why I'm giving a 3, sometimes its a 5 but once I actually had my nail beds ruined for several months until the nails fully grew out. They tried very hard to fix the nails through the process of growing them out, however, they never offered to "make it right" with refunding the service, etc. I would say the pedicures are the least consistent, and lately I've just been skipping pedicures because they feel rushed and the quality just isn't what it used to be. I really hope that Aria is able to get back to the high quality, consistent nail care that I started coming here for! read more

This place is super clean and the staff are professional. The decor is also beautiful and modern. Unfortunately the only reason why I go here is because there aren't many clean nail salons in the area and the staff here give great massages. The relaxing factor is definitely there. It's a great soothing experience after a long day. The only complaint I have is, the dozen times I've been here for both manicures and pedicures, my polish job does not look like it was done by a professional. I've never been happy with the polish job. It always looks extremely messy and not applied evenly. Maybe they could not only train on the amazing massages, but on correct polish application. read more

Booked appointments this afternoon for both my mom & I to come in for gel manicures & they were able to see us at the same time & in side by side chairs a little later on that day. My nail tech was Tina & she was absolutely wonderful. I had courtesy paraffin wax treatment applied to my hands & a lovely chair massage while it moisturized my skin & left it smooth & supple. I loved the atmosphere as it definitely felt more like a spa than a salon-- Aria was all relaxation & no chaos. Definitely recommend to anyone & will be back soon! read more

Worth every penny. The lemon spa pedicure is so relaxing and a great value. The people were terrific, the space is very clean and bright.

Hands down the WORST nail salon I have ever been to. It was my birthday yesterday. I booked a group session for a mani and pedi way in advance. There were two confirmation phone calls exchanged in between. Yet when we arrived they were 45 min late to our appt. Keep in mind, including myself, I brought 7 clients into the salon. Upon leaving, every single person had disgusting nails and everyone complained. I went to the owner to fix my own nails after a man who shouldn't even be working there did my nails. I tried to pretend everything was fine. My nails look worse than they did prior to coming in. I will never come back here again and I think everyone in my party should get their money back. I will be going to Sen Nails in Saugus to get this fixed. My friends were all unhappy and the employees at the salon ruined our gathering. read more

The price is well worth it! Kevin is currently giving me the best pedicure I have ever had and I'm a ever other week-er. After jumping around for the last year trying to find the best spot I came here last minute to try it out. This place is like no other. Kevin does an amazing job. Having the lemon Spa pedicure, outstanding! read more

By far the BEST manicure and pedicure I've ever had! Pedicure was $35 and included paraffin treatment and a hot stone massage. Shellac manicure was also $35 and included paraffin treatment as well as a hot stone massage on back & shoulders, amazing! Jessica did an amazing job and really made it like a mini-spa day. I was there for 2 hours total. I don't think I will ever go to another nail salon again! read more

I have been to Nail and Spa Aria twice now. Once with a larger party, in which the treatment was fantastic and we had a great time. Jin was who worked with me that day. He was fun, professional, and gave one of the best pedicures I've ever gotten. I also came alone one day without an appointment. Cindy worked with me and also did a fantastic job. She was so nice and took extra time to make sure the pedicure was perfect. I highly recommend this place, and think it's the best pedicure in the area. read more

Just left Aria and I had the gel manicure and standard pedicure. The massage chair is amazing and they give you a foot and hand massage. Seems more like a luxurious experience compared to other nail salons. Great experience and excellent mani pedi. read more

Who would not love Aria. They are fantastic. Coming from New York City where every salon gives you a complimentary shoulder massage I was thrilled when I saw Aria offered this service. Everyone that works here is super nice and pays attention to detail. If you want something that is more unique to your standard mani/pedi then run do not walk to Aria. Also, they are always mailing out coupons for money off for manicures and pedicures. They also have coupons for their special upgraded pedicures. I can't wait to try one of the special/deluxe pedicures. read more

Aria provides the best pedicure around. Beautiful salon with fantastic pedicure chairs and a friendly staff. I'll definitely be back!

Very big and classy salon. The regular pedicure was nice and it looks like they have more advanced treatments as well. My sister had the spa pedicure and it seemed to be very long but she was very relaxed. We both got gel manicures which include paraffin wax. I loved both but I think the attention to detail is a little off. If the girl had slowed down she would have realized a crooked nail and nail polish in the corners of my toes. Not really a big deal but for the price tag you think it would be noticed.i also got my eyebrows waxed and the girl was great. It was quick and accurate. I'll definitely be back! read more

I called ahead for a pedicure and requested Kathy. She did an amazing job on my toes. This salon is very clean and focuses on massage. I love the paraffin wax on my heels it's so soft. She even massaged my neck and shoulders as I sat down waiting for them to dry. It's worth the $35 I love it there. read more

There is something wrong when the manicurist gets angry with you when your fingers don't dry properly in the gel machine and the polish smudges while she is trying to put final coat on. She republished it and shoves your hand back in the machine. Won't go back read more

I went to Aria yesterday for the first time and I had Paul as my manicurist, he was fantastic. It was the BEST manicure and pedicure that I've ever had. They really go the extra mile at Aria. They have a menu of special manicures and pedicures to choose from if you're looking to make your visit extra special and spend more money. But even if you just get the regular manicure $15 and pedicure $35 you get a paraffin wax treatment and a massage. Not just a foot massage and hand massage, they rub your next, upper back and head! It's amazing! read more

Aria has been one of my favorite nail salons in the area. The service is fast, the salon is super clean, the gel nail polish selection is great and all the services include little extras. Unfortunately, the quality of the work does not live up to the $35 gel manicure price tag. My last gel manicure has been by far one of my worst manicures. The polish itself is uneven with visible brush strokes and the ends of my nails are rough with no polish on them. Personally, I love the salon but it's not worth the price to have a bad manicure that looks like I painted my nails myself. read more

See all

Awesome. They took me right away and worked with my time constraints! Becca was terrific!! They had many ad on like a massage and paraffin to make it unique. Can't wait to come back! read more

Had a great experience today with Paul! I got a regular mani for $15 which was amazing for the service I received. From the wax hand massage to the hot stone shoulder massage I have never felt more re-energized and confident from a manicure. Thank you so much Aria !!! read more

First time yesterday. I called and asked if they had time for a fill.. Not thinking anything of it I went there and the man who did my nails said they don't do acrylic nails so he'll fill it with a gel. It is a beautiful place . And very clean, everyone is very nice but was sad that I wasn't informed as my $18 nail fill turned into a $50 fill Yes his name was andy read more

Very nice salon! Very friendly staff ! Kevin and Joy where amazing and did a great job. They do a lot for the client for the price of services. So worth it ! read more

I have been coming to aria for the past year and previously was very happy. My last two experiences have been very dissatisfying. First, I made three appointments for a Friday morning for two of my friends and myself. One of my friends had a pedicure appointment next to me. We were both seated together and after a few minutes someone came to me for my pedicure. My friend sat the entire time of my pedicure with her feet in water (which became cold) and when I was about to get up to dry my toes someone finally came over to do her pedicure. My last experience was yesterday and when I left and was in sunlight you could see how thin the nail polish was on my nails and even see missed spots. Less than 24 hours later it is chipping off and this is after waiting a half hour under the dryers to dry. I am very dissatisfied and feel the quality of the salon has really gone down hill. read more

I went yesterday with my sister to have a Mani-Pedi. I was so relaxed getting my feet done I could have fallen asleep. Linda used a hot stone to massage my legs and feet and it felt amazing. She asked if I liked the color before she painted all the toes which I thought was thoughtful. I had my manicure right after that and found the hot wax they dipped my hands in was also amazing and relaxing. While the wax was setting in, she massaged my shoulders! What a dream! The entire salon was peaceful, not much talking the music was calming. The only thing that made me annoyed was when a couple of men walked in and the staff started talking about them, staring and talking to each other in another language. Just makes me wonder what was being said... My sister had a couple, I got 15$ off my mani-pedi and ended up paying 55$ (plus tip) which I thought was very reasonable. =) read more

Had a gift certificate, went and got a shellac manicure. They left parts of my nails blank without polish, they started chipping after 6 days. I get shellac every time I have my nails done. They seemed to do it differently then my regular salon, I feel as if they missed a step or too. Top coat is peeling. So many chips already. Not going back. read more

They were absolutely amazing giving my 3 yr old daughter her first mani/pedi. So kind and gentle!! We will be back very soon!

My friend and I went to this salon over the weekend. I love the fact that they do paraffin wax on your heels (pedicures) and do a paraffin wax if you're getting a mani. And the stone massage is a great touch. I go to this saloon on a semi regular basis. But never again. The guy doing my mani and pedi gave dirty looks and smirking to the other tech when either of us asked for soemthing - can you buffed the heels a little more, please don't use any lotion on my legs. It was outright rude. I never had to check the nails anytime I have been to any salons. So I highly suggest at this place you do. It was after my nails were dried that i noticed that 1. I still had a little callus/dried skin on my baby toe. Normally any salon would have buffed it out. And 2. I looked at my hands.. He missed part of my thumb nail. i went to the front desk because he was already working on someone else.. They couldn't find the color I used. then my tech came over and tried to pick out a color that was not even mine. I kept telling them it was OPI - but the tech kept saying no it was this one. Yes I probably should have notice the name of the color but I didn't. He was adamant that it was a color that was so far off it wasn't even funny. And to make matters worse, you know those lovely warm damp towels that they use? they use the pedicure stations to wet them. So while my hands were drying i see them dunking the towels into a pedicure station and ringing them out and then putting them into the warming ovens. That just does not seem too sanitary to me. I would think they would have a sink or something. Not use the station where people put their feet.. ugh! So if you want your mani and pedi to be less than meidicore and you love to have your tech be disrespectful of you by giving dirty looks, etc. at you while you are getting your nails done, then by all means Aria is the place for you. read more

the pros- - my shellac didn't look horrible but I had to try two different colors to find a red color because the bottles were very deceiving - the paraffin wax was nice but it seemed unsanitary that everyone dipped their hands into it? - very clean besides the questionable paraffin the cons- - "Sun" my nail tech was very aggressive and didn't trim my cuticles until I asked.. she also gave me the roughest back massage I have ever experienced and I am literally in pain from it. I think she pulled a muscel in my arm.. - no free $15 off coupon/creme that everyone else seemed to receive on their first time... would I go back? probably not.. unless I wanted to get beat up and pay $35 for a shellac.. also my sister hated her shellac it was done poorly and she also was beat up by her nail tech.. - pricey for okay service that felt rushed Does anyone else know of a good nail salon on the northshore because I've just about given up.. read more

Let me start by saying the facilities are beautiful and clean. There are so many colors to choose from and the service is great. However, after spending $35+ ( with a 20% tip on top of that) for a gel manicure I would expect it to last more than 4 days. I got the manicure on a Tuesday morning and by Friday I had 2 nails completely chipped off. I would prefer to have my nails last for the 2 weeks rather than a half decent chair massage and some mystery paraffin wax dip. I asked around and this has happened to 4 out of my 5 friends that have gone there ( both regular manis & gel) . Im sticking to ZaZas in Stoneham. Mindy is the BEST and my gel manis stay on for 2+ weeks :) read more
