Always a relaxing experience. The staff is always trying to make you feel comfortable.

I called for a gel pedicure walk in and they were able to take me. The service was very pleasant and relaxing. The music they play is so relaxing to the point where I could have almost fallen asleep if I tried. & usually I can't wait to get out for the nail salon. The employees are super nice and ask along the way if everything looks okay. Which it did. read more

Gel manicure made my nails deteriorate and fall off. Went for pedicure out of convenience and I could have done the same job, probably better. If you do not pay for the extra pedicure fees they offer then they give you below bare minimum. It was cut, file and polish. Not a top coat, no scrubbing, etc. It was exactly what any woman would and could do on own at home. read more

Came to this nail salon because it was recommended to me. All I have to say is that I really do love coming here. Anna does a great job with my nails and they always look beautiful! The salon is very clean and spacious. Every time I come I notice that the tools are sterilized and use a new nail file which is awesome because many salons don't do this. I always get dip powder for $36 and they last me 3 weeks. They also have numerous pedicure options to choose from if you're looking to get one. I would recommend the callus removal which was $30 I believe. The only reason why I give it four stars is because I always make an appointment and sometimes I've had to wait around 15-20 minutes. This doesn't always happen but it has happened and if i'm making an appointment I wouldn't mind waiting 5 minutes but anything more than that is a lot because I always show up on time and it's courteous. I understand they are busy but just something i have noticed. Overall, I would recommend this nail salon. read more

I love this nail salon. Been going here for 7 years. The vibe is relaxing with no tvs and spa music. I've never had a bad experience getting pedicures and manicures. I've gone to other salons and they've never matched Royal Nails. They are adding a head spa soon too!!! read more

I didn't even noticed if worker cut my cuticles. Or if she even took the right steps to clean my nails . All I know is that in 10minutes my pedicure was DONE! Talk about pampering myself smh read more

This is the best manicure and spa in New Jersey . Tina is exceptionally talented as a manicurist.She takes pride in her work . The people that work here aim to please their clientele.

Meh - could have been better. There are so many nail salons in the area, that I am just not a fan and even though it is the closest to my new house - I will not be returning. The facility is cleaned and has a HUGE staff - did not seem like anyone had to wait but almost felt like a factory in a sense. The price was right, I was in and out. But I did like the way my fill-in gel manicure felt when I left. It was too thick for my liking. In addition, I asked for a very small heart on one finger of each hand and the tech basically gave me a "v" on my nail. I did not notice until I got home so I went back to have it fixed and I felt like a bother. The tech said she matched the picture but she very well did not. I did not want to fight I just wanted it painted over and fixed. Another tech did it for me but did not make me feel welcomed. I just moved to the area and I get my nails done every week. This location is legit 3 minutes from my house but unfortunately, they lost out on a loyal and returning customer. read more

I'm regretfully posting this but this steady decline in quality has been noticed for a couple of years now. While I used to go here every 2 weeks for my nails, this was the first time I had been back in months & it was a notable difference in disappointment. I like to match my color polish on my pedicure, to the same gel I get with my manicure. First, I was told there was a matching color, but when I went to sit for my manicure I was told there was no match. Ok, so not a big deal---but--- The pedicure was so rushed, and done so poorly that I am slightly embarrassed (see photo). The polish is all over the skin around the nail. When she was filing my nails on my hands to soak off the gel I had on previously, she was so aggressive that she actually hurt my fingers. I asked her to be easy & my knuckles don't bend backwards and she giggled. That aggressive treatment of pulling my fingers, twisting my wrist & elbow to get my hand they way she wanted it really has not happened at any other salon I have been to. It actually was very uncomfortable. When we sat down for The manicure, She asked if I wanted my nails cut or filed. I instructed filed, square with a rounded edge. She literally did nothing of the sort (see photo). She barely filed my nails and the same sloppy result as the toes, gel left on the skin around the nail. I like to be in and out but this entire thing took 50 minutes, for pedicure & gel manicure. It was just very rushed & sloppy. I think the final straw to make my decision not to return was seeing a roach crawling around the floor. I don't blame the salon for that as it could have been a one time thing, but looking around and seeing full bins of used flip flops and napkins laying on the floor, wet towels piled up behind the chairs, I just decided that although it's less expensive than some other salons---this just isn't the place for me anymore. read more

They always do an amazing job! I went in and requested a calligraphy "S" on my nail and with full honesty my tech told me he would try his best to replicate the photo and it came out perfectly!! I was very impressed and had a fun time watching him work and be just as happy about the result as I was. :) He even said if I want any new designs to go to him and we'll try them together. Amazing staff! read more

I first came to Royal Nails because a few ladies at the gym Fit Female recommended the owner for gel manicures. In the beginning, I was very happy with the nail spa. It is very clean, good service, and I love the chair massage while your getting your manicure. Everything was great until I ran a few minutes late due to unknown road construction on Rt 46. The owner Nicole was very arrogant, and rude towards me after being a great customer to her, and tipping very well. Because I was held up due to road closures. I called to say I would be 5 minutes late. I was told no problem. Otherwise I would have rescheduled if being a few minutes late was a big deal. When I arrived Nicole must have mistaken me for a child, and assumed she could talk rude, and disrespectful to me. I could have gave her the same attitude back but I was not going to belittle myself to her level. I took my business to another salon that I patronize in Ft Lee that has been consistent for over 12 years. I decided to give this place a second chance, 2 years later. I did not care for the vibe of the Owners. They are not friendly to every customer that enters for business. I guess it depends on their mood. I went to a mature lady that did my gel manicure, it lasted 3 weeks. The next visit, I was up sold a premium base coat, and my nails did not last 2 weeks. When I went for my third visit, I asked Nicole's husband about the issue with the more expensive base coat, and how my nails looked. This guy had the nerve to become loud, and acted like a complete asshole. I gave it back to him, nice nasty. So he put me with a lady that was very, very nice, she did a great job on my gel manicure. I tipped her well. It's not her fault her bosses are jerks. Another thing that stood out. The Owners speak, and greet the Caucasian customers but never speak to POC. That is a problem for me, if I treat you well, very well mannered, tip well, and you don't treat me right. I will happily spread my cash, where I am treated nicely, and I will share with friends on my social media platforms so that my friends take there business to establishments that treats everyone great. This is a business not an elementary school playground. I give this place 1 star for the cleanliness, and a star for the nice worker. I will never give this place any business nor will I refer any of my friends to this place. There are nice nail salons that have consistent, friendly service for everyone. read more

Theres a reason people give this nail salon one star and I wish I listened. I got a regular pedicure and the service was so bad. She didn't even file my nails, and I when I said that to her... she snarled, and still didn't do anything about it. Save your money! I won't be back. No effort or care.. read more

this place is getting 2 stairs bc they were able to fit me in last minute but other than that i will never go back. the woman who did my nails didn't soak the old sns off all the way and tried to file it down to where it's not seen but not fully off my nails. i noticed my nails were harder than normal and began to peel the rest of the old powder off and she got annoyed and started to talk about me to the coworker next to me all while acting like she didn't realize she didn't get it off all the way. my mail shapes are not the same and she rushed through the actual manicure part. never again. this place sucks. read more

Susie was great!! She has a great foot massage technique. I didn't feel rushed to give my chair up. She took her time. The icing on the cake was the hot bag placed on my heel to moisturize my heel. Lovely!! My happy Feet were super happy. The manicure was also good. She accommodated my request unusual and she executed perfectly. Massage was fantastic!! I can't wait to come back again for a chair massage. He rubbed all the stress away. Felt like deep tissue and acupressure combined. I will return. This is what we work so hard for. A little time to pamper ourselves!! read more

This review is long overdue because I've been coming here for years and specifically with Suzy. She is truly amazing at what she does. She takes her time but efficiently and pays attention to detail. I don't know how she does it but my nails come out perfect every single time. The salon is super clean and I love that the owners are there all the time and know their customers. The staff are all super friendly. I never go anywhere else! read more

Royal Nails & Day Spa - Dip powder gel - Nail Salons Near Me - Fairfield, New Jersey

When visting my family in Fairfield from Texas, I searched for a nail salon close to my Moms house. My sisiter recommended Royal, and I must say they did a wonderful job.

You will thank me tomorrow! read more

Today was my first time coming here My dipped powder French ombre came out beautiful. I loved it! William one of the owners did my nails and he came highly recommended. He was very polite and when he did have to answer the phone or help a walk in customer, he always apologized for stopping. I also heard him turn customers away since they were completely booked. This nail salon is big, clean and the color selection is amazing. Come in and see for yourself. His wife Nicole is a doll! read more

Workers are extremely rude, including the receptionist. They treat you like your business is inconveniencing them. Ridiculous!!!

Some of the technicians are very rough and work too fast. The person I go to is very nice and gentle. However I have had several powder dips that lasted only a week before cracking and peeling. I have gone elsewhere and not had this issue. So I won't go back. read more

Call me crazy but I wasn't super impressed, they try to up charge you on everything even a "better base coat". They're pretty pricey for a similar salon and their regular gel color choices consist of one side of a book. Pedicure came out great but won't be coming back. read more

Nobody there when i walked in OWNER asked what services bc i said pedi only he said ok take a seat. 10 mins later place becomes packed with gel clients bc my $50 pedi wasnt good money he comes and tells me 45-1 hr wait!!! read more

Really just so sad about my recent experience at royal. Typically the service is fast and adequate. Tonight the women was rough with my nails, rude when asked a question, didn't even tough my cuticles, and overall the end result is pretty terrible. I asked her to file more and she snapped at me saying she wasn't done, with the end result being really subpar. I was getting my nails done for vacation and sadly will have to live with this mess for my trip. Regretfully, I won't be a client at Royal any longer. read more

phenomenal pedicure and callous treatment(+8). She took her time making my toes look flawless and I loved the paraffin wax finish,worth the price. My manicure was matte black (5$ extra for matte). Mani pedi was 28. The matte black was a solid 8/10 (a little glossy). This picture is two days after. I had my nails done at 2/3pm, by 10am the next day I had chips. I wish my nails looked as great as they did when I walked out. This place is lovely, clean and has great service (they took me as a walk in right away) but for a manicure that lasted less than 24 hrs might not be running back here for anything past a pedicure. read more

Just had the most bizarre encounter with a nail technician named JAMES. I asked him nicely a few times to not over file my nail beds...a recurring problem at this salon as this was my 3rd technician to do so. James threw the largest hissy fit and refused to do my nails. Basically left me hanging with a half done job. His reaction to a customer's request was over blown and completely uncalled for. The owner was unhelpful in the situation and didn't try to help diffuse the situation. He just wanted to pawn me off to another technician to get my money. No apologies. Needless to say I won't be back and you should consider other options. read more

This place is efficient but don't come here for a relaxing time. There is one particular tech who is extremely rude and I've seen other customers complain about her being rude. Today I got stuck with her. She didn't ask what kind of pedicure I wanted, I would've opted for one of the spa pedis or extra massage but she didn't even offer it. She just started on me had an attitude. She didn't even rub my feet! Just my shins for a quick minute. My whole pedicure took 15 mins. If you want a better pedicure, with great service go to Angel Nails in Lincoln park. They're a small place but they put in the effort and are so polite. read more

I really liked Royal! My friend recommended this salon and I am so glad she did. The girl who normally does my nails is taking a break so I came here and Ended up with Tina. She did an excellent job. Her attention to detail was great and she spent awhile working on them. I also appreciated the guy who walked around giving massages. I ended up getting a 10 min massage and that was a nice pampering option. I will see how the next couple weeks go and if the nails hold up (to me that is the true test) and if all goes well this will most likely be my new go to place. read more

I just walked in without an appointment and was so happy to see the elegant clean atmosphere. Everyone was so kind and welcoming. I mentioned I was looking for SNS and a gel pedicure for my wedding.

Well, i didn't have appointment i called and they told me that if it's just one person i can come that was nice. Price was reasonable at the beginning. Then the lady suggest me to do the gel because it's healthier and she told me the price. Before she does anything she let me know about the prices and i really appreciate that. I said okay then she did gel nails. I showed a picture and she did the based color wrong then i changed my mind and she helped me to decide for the tip color. She was really nice and she did really good job. But even tho for basic design the price goes up 20 dollars and for the little sparkles 5 dollars. It's kinda overpriced. Overall the customer service was good and clean place. When they are doing your nails they are offering massage which is nice. Warm towels are great touch. read more

Really, really happy my friend recommended this place. I've been going to the same nail salon for 4 years, but was just content with their work. I decided to give this place a try even though it's almost a 20 minute drive for me. I made an appointment and was seen exactly on time. I was impressed to see how spacious and clean this salon was. They used sterilized tools, not just sanitized tools, on each client (which is mandatory by state but not many salons actually do this) and care about the integrity of your nails. I received a gel powder manicure for $35. My one caveat is that this place may be inconsistent with service. My friend receives two complimentary massages each time she goes, and I did not receive any. I do expect to be treated the same as every other client, especially after leaving a $15 tip for my service. Either way, this is my new nail salon for good. read more
