When I called, the woman was very friendly and accommodating, even after me telling her "I'm a tough and picky customer." She assured me she had someone great. April did a great job and kept making sure I approved. Very professional. I had a gel mani for $42 and pedi for $30. Very fairly priced. A bit tight in there, but they make it work for sure. Those ladies are working hard and hustling. Place seems pretty clean as well.

Monica is amazing for any acrylic / gel x art work , just try to book her ahead of time! I have…read morealso gone to the gentlemen who sits next to her (never caught his name),and he is incredibly detail oriented and fixed my nails drastically from a botched job at my old salon. This review however, is because of how long my acrylics lasted. I usually can do 2 weeks between fills, maybe 17 days absolute max... this set from Monica lasted from June 5 to June 30! They could have likely lasted another week, I just needed to get a fill in before I go on vacation.

I was very excited to try this place. I got gel nails and pedicure and they looked great at first…read more The lady who did my nails was quite rough with pulling my hands, pinching my cuticles and scratching the sides of my nail over and over to take the excess polish off. Overall she was not kind. She also skipped the filling process of the pedicure. It was a very painful process, and I have been routinely getting mani/pedis for over 10 years. One thing I want to note is the lady made me cure my entire hand after painting EACH NAIL. So she would paint my thumb, make the entire hand cure, and switch to the other hand while we waited. This made the process not only take extremely long, but it made all my nails peel off like stickers. The edges were lifting like crazy. I had no choice but to gently pull them off and my nails were extremely damaged. I also felt uncomfortable being under the lamp well over 30 times. I understand if the employees need to have their kids in the salon, however, they were screaming and running around the entire time, which got to be very annoying as the employees would not say anything to their kids.

I was looking for a nail spot nearby and found Y&D Nail Salon just a short walk away. I booked…read moreonline for a 10am appointment right when they opened. When I arrived I was sat down immediately. The salon was quiet, no other customers at the time, just the ladies chatting among themselves in Chinese, which didn't bother me as I had my headphones in. It was giving your local neighborhood nail salon vibe. Lisa did my gel manicure and regular pedicure. She was really sweet and took her time with both services, especially with cuticle care and painting. Overall, 5 stars for a solid, no-frills experience if you're looking for something low key and convenient. You get what you pay for. I paid $67 plus tip for gel manicure and regular pedi.

Great prices, nice staff, but a little rushed on the service. They only have 2 pedicure stations…read moreand I think 3 manicure stations. I came in for a gel pedicure and removal of my dip manicure. The dremelling was tough and fast, nicked my skin a few times. Exfoliation and pumicing of the feet was light, no massage. The pedicure looks good, it just didn't feel super lux. Pricing though: $40 for a gel manicure, but $10 for dip removal. Not too bad. I think I still prefer my regular spot but if I'm ever in a pinch, I may return. Just hoping for a no-pain, no skin nicks experience.

I walked in because I was nearby but I regret it. I also just read another review and she's saying…read morethe same things but she gave them a 4 star? A 4 star is above average and that you'd recommend this place to your friends. I would not. Let me tell you why this place is a 1 star - for a gel manicure. I agree with the previous reviews, the staff seems nice but that doesn't mean anything if you're not skilled at your profession. (We also never talked) the manicure was cheap but it's not worth it. I'd rather spend much more somewhere else. 1. My cuticles are still in pain and it's day 3, I've been putting Neosporin on it. The nail tech was very rough on my cuticles, no oil, just wiped my nails with polish remover then stripped off my cuticles and nicked my fingers multiple times with her clips. Then she used alcohol 3-4x which burned like crazy. 2. Nail polish application is sloppy. Its all uneven and I've been peeling it from my skin. I don't care if it's cheap. I can do my nails better myself. 3. She never asked me what shape I wanted my nail.. but atleast when she had the large nail clipper in her hands before clipping away she asked if I wanted them cut. Which I didn't so she filed them... straight. 4. This place was distracting and wasn't relaxing to be in. They had 3 music/radio sources all going on at the same time. Save your money or go somewhere else.

First off, It's rude and arrogant to ask and almost command your customers to pay cash, we pay however we can and want. I know there is a sign asking people to pay cash, BUT still the customers are paying your rent, you should change your attitude. This will be the last time I go here, not even sure how they are still in business while they are commenting under their breath and making faces.

After a couple years of lockdown, I recently got a manicure at another place in Manhattan and I…read moreconfess it was rather disappointing. However, while rolling through the West Village I had a vague memory that at one time I had a manicure at J and Z (or perhaps a shop that was in the same location previously) so I decided to give it a shot. I find whenever I walk into a salon for a manicure the reaction of the staff really dictates the rest of the experience. I find if the staff is indifferent or even slightly annoyed when I enter, it's generally a pretty sub-standard experience. If, on the other hand, they are smiles and welcoming of my business then it's generally a good to great experience. I am happy to say this experience fit into the latter category. Within minutes of entering I was seated and my manicure had begun. Having had many over the years I am pretty familiar with the procedure and I can tell when the person is rushing or moving just at the right pace. I am happy to report this manicure moved just at the right speed (too fast and I've gotten cuts before from overzealous cutting). The manicurist made light conversation at just the right amount to engage me without seeming overwhelming (I consider this a skill). I was very happy with the results of the manicure, which was mostly to cut my nails short and clean up cuticles etc. I added a buff at the end (hey, it's a bit of vanity, why not?) and everything came out great. I decided to tack on a 20 minute chair massage as my neck had been sore recently and I had a weird knot in my back. My manicurist did the massage and she did a great job. It was good enough that I honestly fell asleep during the process! I had a great experience here and look forward to my next visit.

She asked me the same question five times yelling at me because she didn't like my answer. I don't know how I made it through the whole thing. I wanted to ask what was wrong what I did to upset her or to deserve such a hostile attitude but I was truly scared she would cut me like on purpose. Maybe she was having a bad day but they just lost a good customer. Her violent manicure was pretty shitty too. I guess it's true you get what you pay for. Oddly all the other technicians were kindly smiling at me. Bizarro world.

Also she cured my nails with gel all over the skin she kept putting her long nails under my finger nails to get the gel off and it was so uncomfortable and unsanitary. I have been to hundreds of nail salons and have never been somewhere so unhygienic. I'm sorry to leave a negative review but I wish I saw something like this before going in.
