    I wanted to like this place, especially since I called to make an actual appointment and explained…read morethat I was a new customer who selected them based on seeing so many great reviews on Yelp. But...unfortunately, they were incredibly sloppy with their powder manicure. I showed them a photo of a design I wanted (mentioned this when making the appointment as well), and when I got there they gave me all confidence they could do it but I could see on the tech's face that she had no idea how to even begin. What I showed them was a very simple Mickey Mouse design (this was after showing them several others and then saying they couldn't do it). What I ended up recording was as something that looked like two cherries hanging off a vine. Keep in mind this for a trip to Disney, so... I will say that their pedicure was great-it included hot stones which I love and the massage was also really good. But, that came at a crazy price. The polish application for the pedicure was also sloppy, when I asked for a simple French. All in all, I left there spending $130, which even by Long Island pricing standards is ridiculous. Regardless of the shotty work, I still remained polite and gracious while voicing my concerns along the way in a nice way because I knew there was a huge language barrier that didn't help matters. I still tipped my tech well because after all she did perform a service, but I know I will not be returning here nor recommending them.

    Been going here for years stopped awhile back just because I wanted my nails to breathe. When I…read morewent back I started going to Emily she is super sweet, gentle, and caring. She will do any design exactly how you show it to her! Place is always crowded so definitely recommend going during the week if you can I'm making an appointment!

    I usually don't do mall nail salons or the various pop up salons that seem to show up one day,…read moredisappear the next. However, while in New York, I needed to get my nails done. Like, NEEDED. They were a hot mess as I had to go to New York from Florida quite unexpectedly. This particular shop, located in the Smithhaven Mall was very clean. As most of these salons, they told me they would take me in 10 minutes, and they did. There are a few things I look for when getting my nails done in other places than my own personal salon in Florida. I watch that they use different nail files for each client. I make sure that they have an autoclave for sterilization of their instruments that they actually USE, not one that is sitting there for show. I watch that they use face masks while doing manicures and gloves while doing pedicures. I also watch closely that salons do not use the same instruments on the next customer, but rather, take a fresh set of tools from the autoclave. Why do I do all of this? Because, as a surgical nurse, I have had the extreme displeasure of having to remove women's fingers and/or toes due to severe osteomyeltis, a disease where the bone "gets sick" and infected and can't be treated with antibiotics. How do most of these infections start? In dirty nail salons with unsanitary practices. This salon, in my 10 minutes of observation, met all that criteria. The tech who did my nails was very nice. He literally got me out of there in one hour after doing a set of acrylic fills and gel polish. The only thing that I might want to add here is that you cannot tip the techs on your credit card. You need to tip them in cash, which makes for an uncomfortable situation when you don't carry cash on you. However, there is an ATM not that far from the salon where you can pull a little cash out in order to tip your tech. The prices are fair ($28 for a fill with gel polish is more than reasonable!). I wouldn't hesitate to go get my nails done there again. The reason I am not giving them the 5th star is because of the mall location. It is crowded, annoying, loud and when I get my nails done, I prefer a quiet, relaxed atmosphere.

    1) Absolutely NO professionalism. There were no other customers there when I walked in for a…read moremanipedi, but in the middle of my pedicure, a couple of people started to trickle in. The owner(?) yelled at the lady who was doing my pedi to take care of another customer, so she LEFT ME for a good 20 minutes with my feet just propped up and only half of my toes done. IT JUST DIDN'T MAKE SENSE! 2) She tried to use the same tools she used for the guy before me, so I had to ask her if she could use new ones. 3) Another customer accidentally dropped a nail polish and it went all over the owner's pants. The owner got really irritated and made that girl sit while she yelled for someone to bring her acetone. She kept complaining loudly that it wouldn't come off and how she really liked her pants all while pointing her finger at that girl. It just didn't seem very professional of her to do that and made the whole atmosphere very uncomfortable. 4) Here is the picture I showed the lady of the color and design I wanted without the acrylic. And the 2nd picture is this is how my nails actually turned out. I asked her many times in the beginning if she would be able to do that design and she said "yes". But when I asked her again near the end she said,"Of course....if I can find the tape..". Then she had the audacity to say "Looks just like your picture!!" when she was done. My friends and I had a good laugh over this.
