Babylon Nails and Spa

This was a waste of money. I went for a pedicure and was in and out in 15 – 20 minutes. They offer this extra service (with charge) for callous removal and when I opted for it the lady spent maybe 10 seconds on it — why charge when you are not going to do it. I would not go back there.

The Deluxe Pedicure is such a treat! I love this location and the Belvedere Square location. They take good care of you!

Babylon nail salon in Canton is fantastic. All the staff are super friendly and professional and Chris always does a perfect job with my manicure or pedicure. This place was reccomended to me by a friend and ilI’d reccomend it to anyone. Plus, they have wine!

I’ve never had a wait. Everyone seems to be very meticulous and very friendly. They always offer a beverage.
I often get a gel manicure, and they have tons of options for gel polish – Gelish, Essie, and OPi. My only complaint is that it’s slightly pricier than other places I’ve been in the area. Tip in cash!

Went to Babylon nails and got top notch service. This place is officially my new mani/​pedi spot! Thank you Jade for service. I’m loving my nails!

Disregard my previous request. There’s no need to tell me what you love about Babylon. As much as I wanted to give it another shot, I’ll never go back. It’s 2 days post visit, and my face is a mess. I have a rash and I’m breaking out over every piece of skin that was waxed. I didnt even look like this as a teenager who washed her face when she remembered. I’ve been getting waxed for 20yrs and I have never had a reaction like this. Maybe it’s their product, maybe theyre not as clean as they appear, either way there is no good reason my face should look like a Proactive before photo.
Oh, I also have 2 cuticle area cuts and polish chipping on my toes. $ 30 for a pedicure that could have been done better by Helen Keller.

Average manis and pedis, they get you in and out and are okay with walk ins.
The cuticle oil they put on my friends nails noticeably messed up the polish (the color got all changed in places). While we were still there she pointed it out and asked if they could fix it. They did re-​do her nails for free after she asked but seemed kind of annoyed that she asked.
Not a bad place to go but not my favorite either

This place is the best. Quiet, calm staff. Relaxing music refreshments. Great foot massages. And knowledgeable staff. They know the chemicals and your skin. Not your average «nail shop». They give About Faces a run for their money.

I tried Babylon with my friends for the first pedicure of the season. Of course they tried to up-​sell me and I went for the Deluxe pedicure ($ 45). The pedicurist SLICED my big toe with the «cheese grater» and it was bleeding badly. She had me put my toe in the whirlpool (which I think is not the best idea). She then put alcohol on it and a bandaid. I was in a lot of pain and could no longer put all of the creams and lotions from the treatment on that toe. At the end, she tried to charge me the full $ 45. I couldn’t believe it. I finally got them down by $ 10 and she made me feel guilty that it was coming out of her own paycheck. Then the manager (maybe) came over and gave me a gift card for a mystery amount. I really wish they would have just let me pay half off or not at all because I do not plan on going back. So I paid $ 35 and have a nasty cut on my big toe that is very painful when walking. Now my spring break is ruined and I will have to wait some more time before I can wear sandals.

I love this place! So relaxing and the staff is professional and keeps chatting to a minimum– my gel manicures last longer than any other place ive been to (including all the countless nail salons in new york) Price is right– i’m now a loyal customer!

Love this nail salon. Owners have created a calm and very clean environment. Tiffany is my go to for all nail services. Highly recommend.

I’m super loyal when I find a place that I like. The staff here is WONDERFUL. They always do a great job and are very friendly. They don’t rush you around or treat you like you’re not worth their time. They offer beverages during your service, help you pick out colors if you’re indecisive and on the rare occasion it has happened, have fixed nail chips or peels for me at no charge, and would not accept a tip for fixing them. It’s very clean and I feel like they value you as a customer. I’ve been going for a year now and they never disappoint!

Went there yest and the nail tech kept telling me to upgrade my mani when i said no politely twice. she was not very nice and didnt even offer to grab my things when she was done with my mani. that was the FIRST time its ever happened to me and I will never be back for a subpar, overpriced manicure. Do not go here

They do a great job here. It’s a clean, nice joint. Staff are super friendly and thorough. Offer you a beverage during your pedi. Have a lot of different options.
Made my feet super pretty — 5 stars for that!

I usually come in about twice a month for a pedicure and fill in on my acrylic nails. I usually get Minh or Li to do my nails and they both do a really great job. They’re consistently very good. The parking here is pretty easy and the wait is never more than 10 minutes or so. They’ve got a large selection of polish as well. Highly recommend!
Just an FYI, they only accept cash tips but there is an ATM around the corner.

I’ve been going to Babylon for over three years now and couldn’t be happier with the services provided. Babylon is not only clean, but the staff are courteous and friendly and go beyond any level of service I’ve come across in many years of frequenting nail salons. To those who say prices are high. They are reasonable for the area and for the level of service provided — don’t order something blindly without knowing the price first then complain. I have brought family and friends to Babylon over the years, and they as well have had an excellent experience.

Babylon is a solid 3.5 for me, but I’m not inclined to round up to 4 stars right now.
I went in for a pedicure and eyebrow wax on a Saturday afternoon and was taken back for the pedicure right away. The collection of colors here is pretty impressive. I’m a fan of OPI polishes and all the colors look relatively new.
The décor here is very pretty. I ended up seated next to this waterfall type wall with stones at the bottom. It was very peaceful and relaxing, which is what I like when I go to get my nails done.
The water for my pedicure was a little cool for my liking, but I like the water warmer than most normal people. I loved the massage chair! It lasted at least 15 minutes and it was so relaxing.
My pedicure was great! A lot of attention was paid to cutting my nails without cutting my cuticles and making sure my feet looked and felt soft. It was the best pedicure I’ve had in awhile!
My eyebrow wax also went well. I just needed a shape-​up and she did a solid job.
It cost 45 dollars for the pedicure and an eyebrow wax. Based on the quality, the price was definitely worth it.
The reason this place is a 3.5 and not a 4 is because they really do try to up sell you on everything here! First it was to add a manicure, then it was to get a deluxe pedicure, then it was more waxing. I understand that they are supposed to try and get people to buy more, but after a point it’s just really annoying. Maybe after I come here a few times that won’t happen as much and I’ll update my review!

LIke the other say it depends who you get. I’m back in the area after 5 years and it was way better 5 years ago in terms of consistency.
I went today and the mani/​pedi was fine –nothing obviously crooked but he wasn’t particular about shaping which can make the difference in nails looking beautiful. The girl next to me was in the chair before me and I was out before she was. The foot massage was weak (I asked him to use more pressure and I got a little thumb action but the rest of his hand stayed pretty limp. It was also short. The hand massage was super short, so much so that it could be categorized as a lotion application.
This is a pet peeve of mine since the proliferation of nail salons. Where to actually have a great overall experience? My nails looking groomed and polished is par for the course in a mani-​pedi. When did the rest of it become dispensable especially at $ 42 for a basic mani-​pedi. I tipped him $ 5 to make a point. If I could actually a mani pedi that felt really good I would be happy to tip 20% and become a regular client.
Last time I was there I went to Jenny and she was a far better nail technician (she was very particular about nail shaping and a better massuese. I mean, I at least knew I was getting a massage. The massage still left me wanting so I thought I’d try someone new.
I don’t understand Baltimore. Most recently I lived in Philly where a basic mani-​pedi including tip was $ 35. Places that included a decent massage as part of the mani-​pedi were probably $ 40 and there were a few that set themselves apart by giving you a shoulder neck massage while your nails dried. My favorite place is at 8^th and Porter is South Philly. Maybe I shoud go there once a month.
I’m at the point of being willing to spend more at a full service salon so that the experience actually feels good. Seems like the nail techs at salon 921 are getting good reviews.
Maybe I’m old school. Back in the 80’s and 90s, you could count on a basic mani-​pedi to include beautiful nails and a great foot and hand massage.
They have super easy parking and the pedi-​chairs are stellar. They also have single use nail files and buffers but I’d bring your own buffer because the one they have for the toes is too rough for the hands and you end up getting a used buffer on your hands. I mentioned that if they are going to do that they should clean them between people.
They also have a lot of turn over so you’ll have a better experience if you know who you are going to. It was way better when it first opened and the owner used to be there more. If you know of a great walk in place, let me know.

Very overpriced! Be careful when the staff try to up-​sell you on everything. I hadn’t been here in a while. I remembered that their mani/​pedis were a bit overpriced, but I decided to go back anyways. I had asked about getting shellac on my toes and was pushed to get shellac on my fingernails as well. I should have known it would be wildly expensive (because there are no prices listed anywhere on the wall). When I went to pay they told me it would be $ 82. «I’m sorry, $ 82? I think you must have rang me up twice by mistake» I said. Nope, no mistake. The basic mani/​pedi is $ 42 then there is an additional $ 40 added on for shellac. My mistake for not asking earlier, but I have never paid this much for a shellac mani/​pedi before.

I like this place because I can usually walk right in and be seen, or call ahead and get the time I want. I usually go for a Spa pedi but have also received manis which are ok. When I tell them I have an ingrown nail (sorry if TMI), they take care of it. Bad calluses? They don’t make me feel too bad about it.
Overall, it’s not a great ‘spa’ but for decent manis and pedis, not bad, and especially not bad for the price.
I know this isn’t exactly a ‘ringing endorsement’, but they are good and the price is right to get services done on a regular basis.
One thing that I do hate about this place, tips are only in cash (can’t put on a cc). Not sure this is 100% legal, but it is what it is — just be aware of that so you can have the right cash for the tip.
