Inessa Gerber
Horrible! Simple manicure came with infection, bad nail polish all over cuticles and uneven shape. We were staying in a hotel near by and I didn't get a usual manicure in NYC before travel, so decided to go to this place while kids were in science center. Salon looked wonderful. Great environment so I was excited to try it. First red flag was small selection of Esse and Opi colors (in NYC even small salon has selection 4 times as big). Colors were also kind of thick... but I didn't have much choice. I had short nails and needed a simple square shape (hard to screw up - I thought). I had to correct nail tech few times as she was filing my nails as she couldn't get shape right. She also kept filing into my skin (ouch). Cuticles were not cut properly or fully. Nail polish was applied on top of cuticles and in very thick coats. And the next day I got an infection on middle finger cuticle :( Never had one in so many years in NYC salons (even small shady salons). Maybe PA standards are different for Nail Services, but this was completely horrible work based on my standards (see pictures)

DO NOT RECOMMEND. Not a great experience. They’re lumpy, not uniform and just plain awful. I repeatedly tried to tell the woman what I wanted (stiletto) and this is what I got. She also cut me (in a few places) and laughed it off. She also started filing AFTER they were all polished and top coat on??? She made them way too thin and completely filed off my natural nail on some fingers and I’m in so much pain honestly. I didn’t want gel and they gave me gel anyway. I went with my sister and she just got a gel manicure, half of her nails aren’t even completely covered. Half of her one nail isn’t even painted! Awful, horrible, PAINFUL, and no one listens or cares what you want or if there’s an issue. I do not recommend this place AT ALL.
Melissa Holderman
I was told to go here and try the pedicure that they do with a warm wax treatment. Not sure the real name of the treatment. It was awesome! The lady was super nice and friendly. I walked out of there, with the softest feet ever. I will defently go again! Great hygiene methods also.
Nicole Silva
They are clean and nice just pricy. The best technician is Nancy cause the other ones need more experience. Fill in acrylics was $30 on the chart but after I did it was $48. She simply changed the price last minute and that is very unprofessional.
Andrea Walko
Came for a pedicure and usually have a good experience here. This technician rushed even though I was paying for a massage plus parafin wax pedicure which is very pricey there. The girl barely touched my cuticles barely scrubbed my heels (I’ll have to do them myself at home!) it was the fastest massage like a minute each leg, which is usually the best part at this place and I was paying extra for it. The paint job was sloppy and doesn’t cover all the nails. I complained to the manager in a nice way and she just said request someone different next time. No money off no discount for next time.
