I've been a long time customer who is no longer going to go there. Lisa has told me twice that i will no longer be allowed to use my usual manicurist for a regular manicure. She NEEDS them to do gel and powder manicures for the customers who want them. I don't want, or need, gel or powder manicures. Guess my money isn't good enough for her. read more

Walked in at opening and was taken right away. Lili was wonderful. She shared her expertise, did each design until it was perfect, and helped me pick the perfect vacation nails. read more

Tried this place out and was excited as haven't seen a huge space like this. Seemed like a well oiled machine but still a bit chaotic which is expected since so many employees and customers are around. They get you in and out which I love because who wants to spend an entire afternoon at a nail salon. Then the following day, my manicure chipped in multiple places. Not sure if it was the rush job but I've done regular manicures elsewhere and never has it chipped the following day. On the fence on going back here after this. I'll give the place three stars as the staff is super friendly. read more

Xiao Q1 Nail & Spa - Chipped the following day - Nail Salons Near Me - Wantagh, New York

I try to come to this place and everytime they disappoint, first the lady doing my nails using her own acrylic nail on her finger to push back my cuticle is disgusting and not just once about 3 times digging her nail into my cuticle, second she fully is rude to me the entire time and stopping my nails to go on her phone multiple times, coughing into her hands without a mask on and then continuing to grab my hands after without any washing or even hand sanitation in between is disgusting, then buffing under my nails so hard that I ask her to stop and she continues and then slices the entire under my skin and I'm bleeding, this is all beyond unsanitary. Then after all of this waiting next to me as I'm paying to give her a tip. Go here if you want to feel unheard and have unsanitary actions being done. I will not be returning read more

0-100 They do not keep to appointment times and have made errors when booking appointments telling me to come on a certain day and time and then not having the appointment. And they honestly don't care about customer service. Most don't speak English enough to understand requests. My nails were separating from the powder within a couple of days. They became thin and painful underneath. When I explained my nails separate from my skin if it isn't straight on the sides ;which I tried to explain through the language barrier before they began through Google Translate) - they told me I was someone they didn't want to come anymore. I am not the only one. The woman in the pedicure chair next to me today grimaced in pain and asked her person to please be careful. They just want to fulfill the bare minimum and get you out so the next person can sit and do not care about the quality of their work or their customers wellbeing. You also can tell they speak about you while present. It's a shame because I am always polite and friendly when there. It unfortunately is not a place to relax and look pretty. It's negative and unfriendly. read more

I've been going here for YEARS. Since they moved locations down. I always love my nails and they are ALWAYS long. It's always been $35 for powder. Well today I was charged $40 because my nails were long! Excuse me?! Since when did this become a thing because 2 weeks it was $35 and every other time with my nails the same length over the years was $35. I didn't make a stink because it was crowded and full but I regret it honestly I was completely blind sided by this up charge. Next time I'm Going to complain and make sure the price is $35 not $40 before I get my nails done... otherwise my tip will be less. read more

Both times I have gone here they have messed up my GEL manicure. The first time the lady was completely rude and hurt my nails. The second time they broke within four days of being done, I had left for vacation so I couldn't come back for them to fix it. In addition to CUTTING my nail bed with the drill bit. Went back in and they said there's nothing they can do for my next manicure since I didn't come back within two weeks even though I had photo and date proof. Will NEVER go here again and DO NOT recommend to anyone who wants to have healthy nails that are worth the money. Plus the station was FILTHY when I was sat. If I could give 0 or negative stars I would. read more

Update: I still like this place, but they've gotten super duper busy. As a clean freak, I didn't feel like this place was all that sanitary anymore - I had received a powder manicure and the nail file and nail block looked as though they've been used 100+ times, and that was a little unsettling. The time before this I took my own nail tools, and when I asked to use my own stuff the girl gave a little laugh and continue to use the tools she had. That turned me off but I still went back. If you are looking for a super clean salon, you may want to go elsewhere. read more

I have been a customer for years, had my gel polished nails chip within 3 days of service and when I came in to get them fixed they were trying to charge me $20. I'm so upset because I spent over $100 on services and a regular and they have horrible cus service. read more

Tom did my $35 pedicure & it felt more like a $50 one. The pedi came with a 10 minute foot massage that honestly one of the best foot massages I've ever had . I chose lavender & he paid special attention to callus on my heels! The place is very pretty and clean. It just felt upscale & like a treat. My bff & i always do our pedis together & she feels the same way! We will definitely be back! read more

Went once to get a pedicure and the woman who cut my toenails left my nails a little too long. Quality is good. Very good staff otherwise.

When the weather's warm I need to keep my feetsies looking less like a hobbit and more like a lady. My usual spot is always crowded, sometimes pushy and always takes forever. $35 nets you a pedicure with cream wrap on legs, 10 minute massage, true callous remover and a quick hot stone rub down. Not a terrible value. My technician was the opposite of gentile, but was effective. Mask and gloves were worn, tools looked clean, but honestly I couldn't tell if they came sanitized or what. I'm definitely picky on cleanliness and they fell short a bit. The air was thick with powder and whatnot, acrylic nail clippings were all over the floors, it felt stuffy and I don't think I got a fresh foot bath liner. Me feet look great, overall, but if I went back it would be during a quieter time and I'd be wearing a mask. No comment on design, powder gel, tips - I don't have the time or patience for any of that. read more

I found this on yelp looking for a last minute saturday morning pedicure appointment. they have a large staff and were super busy but able to take me. I believe the girl who helping was Fang.

June 9, 2025 A young man attempted to give me a pedicure. He had no idea what he was doing. He created an absolute mess. I think it's disgraceful that he was allowed to even touch a customer. When I stated my concern with the man who overseas the pedicure area he rudely blew me off. Another technician named Ann came over and redid my pedicure. She was very accommodating and did a lovely nice job. read more

Awful customer service, I thought they would be good but instead my wife told me that they hurt her. They worked on a broken nail and neglected my wife's feelings and when I came in there and said something, it went one ear and out the other. I probably won't come back here to do business again! read more

The service here is terrible. They make you wait forever because they way overbook and can't take you on time even when you make an appointment. I allotted 90 minutes in my day to be here for a mani to get to my next appointment and had to leave because I was not seen but rather put in a chair and forgotten about. I would never go back here. read more

They give the best pedicures they don't rush you the fillings last for three weeks a little pricey, but it's worth it

Stay away! Smells terrible, could barely breathe, they need a better filtration system. I had booked an appointment a few weeks in advance for my daughter and several friends. When calling back to confirm a few days prior...they dismissed me, could care less, and left me stranded with a bunch of girls a few days prior to her birthday. Will never go back to this terrible smelling, poor service "nail factory" that doesnt care about customers. read more

Terrible!! The short heavy set Asian owner was nasty and dismissive. Made an appointment, showed up on time, made us wait 20 minutes before telling us that the person we made the appointment with wasn't in. Great thanks! It's literally like an assembly belt, sweat shop with a rude owner, who doesn't really care about her customers read more

I had been going to this salon for a couple of years now regularly. Today I went there to get my nails done for Thanksgiving. I explained what I wanted I thought that they understood. Halfway through I realize that they did not understand and when I tried to explain to them again what I wanted they made me feel stupid and made me believe what I wanted was not possible. At the end of my experience I then was informed what I wanted was possible. They said oh next time, so like next Thanksgiving you mean? I get that there was a miscommunication about what I wanted but once they understood what I wanted they should've offered to fix it! It was there miscommunication. And then on top of it to make me feel like I'm the jerk and I'm the idiot is not right. To make matters worse when I got to the register, they charged me an arm and a leg they knew I was not happy and I've been going there for years. They should've taken a little bit off of the price for me that's just good business. No one cared that I was unhappy all they wanted was me gone and their money. I've been going there for years. I could not believe they treated me this way, after I left I sat in the car and cried not that they could give a crap. I will not be returning. read more

Cheap prices but dirty and rushed. The gel powder mani did last over 2 weeks without chipping. They just moved to this location from across the street but again cleanliness is not a priority. I will go back but with my own tools and bring a Sani wipe to wipe the nail table b4 they start read more

DO NOT GO HERE. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. I spent $50 for a gel chrome manicure 3 days ago (done by Sam) and had to go back today, as two of my nails had already completely chipped. When I went in to get them fixed, the workers were unapologetic, and the woman (Coco) who redid my nails was extremely rude to me. She rushed through fixing my nails and rolled her eyes when I asked her to put an extra protective coat on them. The tips of my nails were wearing down already as well (which is unacceptable, as they had just been done 3 days ago). Coco fixed two of them for me as well, but she rushed those too, and they turned out uneven and patchy. I was really disappointed because I loved my set originally and was excited about it. NOT A SINGLE PERSON apologized for this inconvenience or treated this situation with professionalism. In addition, as soon as I left, they rolled the blinds down, clearly to avoid seeing me. Very immature and obnoxious behavior. I've been coming to Q1 for years, but I won't be returning. While some technicians do great work, the attitude and lack of accountability here are not worth the risk. I strongly recommend going elsewhere so you don't end up with the same upsetting experience. read more

Twice I have made an appointment with a specific person and they have told me over the phone okay, when I arrive they never give me who I asked for.

Got my nails done here one time and was extremely disappointed. I asked for my nails a little shorter and she cut them to my finger tips. After i told her she said there was nothing she could do because she didn't have time to fix it and I'd have to book another appointment to reverse her mistake. They wanted me to pay for both services and made it seem like my fault. Customer service is terrible. read more

Very little waiting time, provide very good service. Have been going for several years very very happy.

I took a chance on this place after going to other local mail salons and being disappointed. My nail tech was Fred, his attn to detail & shaping are perfect... he hits it out the park every time. Peter is my pedicure guy.... Never disappoint coming here.... Happy to have found my new spot! read more

I had a great experience, this spa is huge and they run a fast operation. I was fooled into a $45 pedicure deal that ended up costing $75 so I'm not sure where the gap in communication was, I literally had the menu in front of me. It was a good experience overall, my French pedi came out nice, not as square as I want but still good Last a long time as well. read more

I love it here. It's clean i can walk from my house the owner is very attentive. I typically get a powder gel manicure for $35 no design i think it's around $50 with design and have gotten pedicures in the past. Overall a powder gel manicure's no design and a pedicure is done in an hour with great quality and does not feel rushed. Can't beat the prices and service here as i can't stand being at a nail salon for over an hour! read more

9/10 experience. The staff is super friendly and service was quick. At first, I was a unsure if I wanted to get my tips done here because it was busy. However, to my surprise they took me right away (large staff)! I got both my pedicure and tips within an hour & the end result came out fantastic! My nails came out just like I wanted :) . They also have a reward system where points are earned every time a service is done on customer. For a first time visit, it was an overall very pleasant experience & definitely worth a return. read more

This place is awful. 1. They don't clean their tools between customers, 2. The mail techs don't wear gloves 3. My nails came out awful. They're so thick and bulbous. I asked multiple times for them to file them. The tech rushed the whole time, acted exasperated when I asked for them to fix my nails and then halfway through he just left to help someone else and I was left sitting there. It was totally ridiculous. Update: A week and a half later and all my nails have popped off read more
