Gel pedicure
Melissa R.

I had never heard of a Russian pedicure and decided to spend the extra money to get one. I got my first pedicure about 45 days ago and my toenails still look pretty awesome! I did lose the gel on my pinky toe a few days ago, and one of my toe nails has a crack in it (I had it before) and that toe polish lasted over a month. This is definitely a different type of pedicure. It would be nice to have a massage at the end. I didn't mind not having a foot soak either. Just booked my next appointment and would highly recommend! (Picture is from today and you can see they still look great)

Hard gel manicure with single design
Jenny B.

My first time at Polished went really well. Their hard gel manicure was meticulous (though if you have sensitive cuticles, brace yourself). And they did a fantastic job at creating the evil eye design I showed them for each of my ring fingers. My nails still look perfect (other than the natural growth) almost a month later. They were also very kind and attentive. I will be back.

Melania is amazing. Very detailed, professional and kind. And the receptionist was super sweet! Very professional ! Love my nails! Worth the money :)

Gel Russian Manicure with Chrome
PartyRock S.

I have fallen in love with this place and all its nail technicians! They are all so lovely and they go out of their way to ensure you're happy with your nails!!! This place is unlike any other! They did my engagement nails and new years! I will never go elsewhere, my nails last forever and are well worth the price. I always get compliments on my nails. I'm very rough with my hands as I have a hands on job and they've never chipped! Done by Dilara She's very sweet and patient!!! Love her work

Russian Manicure w/ Hard Gel
Natalie E.

My second review on this salon. The hospitality is great very nice people and your nails look gorgeous right when they are done but for some reason the hard gel nails on my nails chipped within 3 days. I just looked down and on my gel pedicure the whole coat of gel polish is just gone.. slid right off after 3 weeks that has never happened to me. This review is more for the technicians to read and to be more thorough throughout the process to ensure this doesn't happen. Thicker coats on hard gel and prepping toenails better before you paint them

This places butchered my nails. Went in for a regular mani and pedi. This is how my nails look after I took off the polish. Also super expensive. Over $200. The ladies are nice but the results are awful at least for regular mani and pedi. I don't do fake or gel.

Three weeks since my appointment and barely looks like I need a fill  can't wait for my next appointment soon!

First off: I have been getting manicures all around the city for over 10 years. I've gotten gel, gelx, hard gel, acrylic, dip, regular manis...literally everything and everywhere between Manhattan and Brooklyn..and I've never found a place like Polished until now. 5 stars. I waited three weeks to write this review to really test out my nail's longevity, and my nails still look incredible. I get comments on how nice and fresh they look even three weeks out. There's a bit of grow out but that's to be expected, and it's a lot less noticeable than three weeks out after regular gel. The venue is also very clean & relaxing. I'm officially a Russian mani convert and I'm not going back. Highly recommended.

Elina is such an amazing nail artist. I'm so glad I finally found her after searching for the right person for so long. I've had really expensive and mediocre Russian manicures at other places in the city and never thought it justified the price but Elena makes it worth every penny. She's also so kind and collaborative since she really wants to make sure you're happy with your nails and the service. I actually enjoy going to get my manicure every month because she also generally makes the environment comfortable and enjoyable. Definitely book with Elina if you want a great Russian manicure and service :)

Two weeks old

This is what my nails look like two weeks since they've been done. They are starting to grow out but it still looks good

Best nail salon I've ever been to and I highly recommend it!!! The manicurists are so skilled and have such great taste Thank you so much

Polished is amazing! I went this past weekend and I got my nails done for Valentine's Day. let me tell you... i have never had such a lush, juicy, and sturdy gel manicure. The technician took her TIME with each nail, making sure each nail looked perfectly manicured and then perfectly flawless with its gel application. I... don't know how I'll go back to anyone giving me a less professional manicure. 6 stars, not 5. Oh also, the staff is lovely. Just a heads up, it is not your typical street front salon: the shop is inside an office building but it is legit. GO!

Expensive but the best Russian mani ever. Russian pedi is not worth it. They give you drinks and chocolate. Love it here

The owner should be smarter to make sure to train employees to have good skills that customers satisfy for few weeks instead of cheap price and poor skills just to get quantity, it's such a waste of time to come back and forth fixing nails, spending few minutes fixing 1 nail, few days after the others are bad. Whoever runs business and says come back to fix for free which means they are not confident about their quality. They created a quiet ambiance with soothing music background since their technicians could not communicate well, sometimes it's kinda annoying when you ask them to explain something, ending up with attitude and rudeness. I agree to quietness and calmness but customer service industry means communication, we could get the nails done anywhere but we don't want to sit and be silent a whole time. Moreover the job is not done right, it's even more stressful.

As a note, their website allows you to request a service but you need to contact them directly to book the appointment itself. The spa is gorgeous, clean, and very zen.

She gave me some advice after the massage for ways to strengthen and loosen up certain muscles. They have products available for purchase. Not sure about showers or a locker room.

Most recently, they've gotten rude with the lack of understanding and flexibility when it comes to appointment scheduling. I reached out to reschedule my appointment but was unable to get through to the salon because the phone lines continuously showed as busy. Despite that, I was told I would still be charged for my full service. The salon provides quality work, but the client experience has become increasingly rude and inflexible. This experience combined with my last manicure where the technician said she didn't have time to do a French manicure while I was paying for a service has made me decide to take my business elsewhere.
