Envy Nails Ten

Fast service, bad service!
Unfortunately, not a place I’d ever return to. I’ve had many years since I’ve gone to a nail salon to get a full set done. I’ve learned to let my natural nails grow. But being a mom to 2 kids and returning to full time work has had me so stressed that my poor hands are now ugly and nail bitten. I decide to treat myself after so long to fake nails to get myself to stop the nail biting. I look up pictures of short styles online, fake nails that look as close to real as possible.
I go to this place and it’s a big open space with chairs on the outer perimeter and the nail technicians in the center. The place looks run down with the heavy smell of acrylic powder and chemicals in the air. I ask a young girl if she was a regular and she said yea and that the place was pretty good and fast. I liked that because I had asked my husband to watch the kids so I could sneak out for an hour or two.
The nail technician calls my name which I wrote on a clipboard and she has me sit at her station. I show her the picture of the style or look I’m going for — active shirt nails with a slightly round point– which she glances at and begins. I should’ve left at that moment. She didn’t care what I wanted. All she wanted was to hurry as quickly as possible so she could take my money and have me be on my way. She put the fake tips on and cut the length which I found long so she cut more. She packed on the acrylic powder and I tell her nicely I’d like for her not to put so much. I want my nails thin. She says she will file down with the machine. She does and makes me bleed a few places. I just grin and bear it. At the end she still leaves them thick and oddly shaped. Some are round and some askew. I was so disappointed I didn’t even want my nails painted. No lotion. The hygiene of the utensils was questionable. Just rushed service and a mediocre job and an indifferent attitude.
Sorry for the long story but what a bad first impression after not having been at a nail salon in such a long time.
I went across the street and paid more to have them fix it. Wow what a difference!

I’m really starting to feel a way. Ever since my original ail place changed owners I’ve been trying to find a reliable nail salon and have yet to find one. I came in for a mani pedi and the shop was practically empty. When I asked for what I wanted at least two nail techs turned me down and sent me to the back to see the lady on the phone in the pedicure chair.
I asked if they take cards, no one speaks english. I ask for a manager no one speaks english. I ask for flip flops to walk to an atm, all of a sudden «two dollars mami» out of nowhere. Funny how now when I’m about to leave someone speaks english.
Pedicure on a Monday 15 $. no mani pedi deals. No massage. No customer service. Nothing. Urgh. Places like these give the Bronx such a bad name.

This place is a joke. They charge you extra if u want nails longer then ur natural bed nail. They don’t clean ur natural nail or push ur cuticles back, nothing. This place look like it hasn’t been cleaned in years. There’s dust & food laying around. Walls written on all over. I could just imagine how clean the pedicure station are. I would never get my feet done here. There are customers fighting with the staff constantly & talking loudly. The nail polishes look expired & are really cheap products. I guess u get for what u paid for. I spend 20 for acrylic nails. I rather spend $ 5 more dollars & go with the Koreans & get my nails done 100 times better & not deal with the ratchness.

Don’t go here. They r racist call u stupid laugh at you tell u u can’t read. It’s supposed to be 15 for a full set but they r charging me 20 for the length. Very rude
