Tina’s Nails 88

The worst nail salon in the area. First off I’ve been coming to this nail salon since 1999 so I’ve created a rapport with the previous owners, to say the least I was highly disappointed when they left. Ever since then service has declined.
My first issue is that they are unbelievably rude. They speak in their language about you to one another in your face.
Secondly they are highly overpriced and rush your job. The lady that does tips in there is always rushing and I always leave with uneven nails or miss-​set tips.
My biggest issue is that I went there to do a mani and pedi. Now the lady that does tips ran the pedi box and told me to get on the chair. I did so, she then changed her mind and said no lets go do a mani first I said ok. She proceeded to rush me out the chair grabbing my things in turn she ended up making my brand new iPhone 6 fall in the water. She then tried to dry it with a towel. She had some words with the owner and he saw what transpired. Now I was upset but I was trying to play it cool because that was a loss I was not willing to take. I asked to speak to the owner which is the younger guy with glasses who has seriously bad body odor and I was explaining to him the situation which I knew he already saw but I still proceeded to explain the situation. I told him I would be willing to go through insurance to replace the phone which is only 200 dollars. I told him if he needed proof of purchase I would bring any type of documentation so he could see that this was not a scam or a quick come up. He then proceeded to laugh at me and told me he didn’t speak English which made me highly upset. I had to call the cops. Since then I’ve reported his business to the better business bureau I’ve told all friends and family to beware.
They are rude obnoxious and money hungry individuals.
Since then I now go to the salon up the block on 76 street. I was skeptical as I never been there before. But man o man they are a blessing in disguise. Simon is a perfectionist and they take their time. And prices are reasonable. I come out feeling very satisfied and pleased with my services. The wait is long only because they take their time with each individual. This place is truly a hidden gem! I hope you do make the right decision and I hope my experience and review was helpful.
If I could give it zero stars trust me i would!!!

What a pleasant surprise! My usual salon’s owner just up and disappeared. I wasn’t too crazy about some of the other salons in the area — most were outdated. After checking out two salons with 30 – 60 min wait times, I stumbled upon this small salon. There was no wait, and upon further inspection found it to be newly renovated — fresh paint, new tables and chairs and an extensive selection of polish. This may be my new spot!
