Gorgeous Nails Salon

I’ve been coming to Gorgeous Nails since they opened. After moving away in 2006 I only returned sporadically. Returning at the end of December 2015 I was surprised that many of the same nail technicians were still there and they remembered me!
The salon looks different since they have recently renovated. They also now use disposable liners for the pedicure basins for improved hygiene.
They do excellent work and offer a very reasonable price for the services they have.

I’ve been here twice and I’m currently writing this right after my second experience. The only reason why I gave it another shot was because it’s right outside my house. Although it’s convenient for me, I will not be going back. I received the same Korean lady both times and both times she was very rough and rude. I am bleeding on my ring finger and pinky as I am writing this. I am not pleased with their service.
I recommend not coming to this one if you want to keep your fingers.

I have been to this place twice. The first time I came here, I called and verified closing time and asked how much a simple manicure and pedicure would cost me. The woman told me they close at 8 pm and it costs $ 20.80, I asked her if I could come in and she said yes. Thank god I stay close by because it was a waste of my time. First off, I walk in and I’m just standing there, they didn’t even acknowledge that I was there. Secondly, when they finally do notice me, I told them I had called and came in for a mani/​pedi. Mind you, they had enough workers and said they couldnt do it, even though They said it was okay to come in. I called at 6pm and was there by 6:10 pm almost 2 HOURS until closing time.
I decided to give it a second attempt about a week later. I went earlier this time so this way there would be no excuses. I walked in yet again and asked for a mani/​pedi and they told me to come back within 30 minutes even though there was two workers sitting around talking and doing nothing, but I was patient and came back. The manicure and pedicure was okay. Service was mediocre. Although $ 20 isn’t steep for a Mani/​pedi, I feel like there is cheaper and you can definitely get better. My 5 year old niece can do my nails just as good. Waste of my $ 20.
P. s. I’m not into fancy shmancy spa like nail salons. But if you are, don’t come here. There is nothing fancy about this place.

Seriously, it’s a $ 13.50 pedicure. You’re not going to get a hot rock massage with it or come out feeling like you just had a heavenly experience. But it’s a $ 13.50 pedicure and I have yet to find anywhere in NYC that’s cheaper.
cheap, quick, the bare minimum of what you need. If you want fancy go elsewhere.
