Will not return. I was routinely going but will never go back. The pumis stones they reuse on everyone. The last pedicure he used a bristle brush on my legs?! And the last 3 gel manicures I've gotten have not been great. Most recent the polish is bubbling. And the white tips you can see through in spots. Not worth the money.

Went today. They did an ok job on nails. Also had pedicure. Don’t like they don’t scrub your feet. Then time to pay. I was charged for my fill-in, plus repair which I completely understand but he charged me extra to have nails trimmed. I have never paid extra anywhere to have nails cut down. I will NEVER return.

I live in Newburgh so I was thrilled to find a local nail salon that does good work. I'd previously tried another local nail salon that takes appointments but their work was subpar at best.
You should definitely expect the 1 - 2 hour wait time as shown in the Google suggestions, especially during sandal season. It seems everybody and their brother shows up for a pedicure, yes this includes men, leaving the salon packed and wait times exacerbated. Usually the wait time alone would knock their overall score down, however I'm pleased with their work.
I get solar nails done regularly and for this I have a dedicated technician who services me regardless when they're on duty. My nails are always done to my specifications and I'm always happy with the work received. Once per year when they're on vacation I see another qualified nail tech, which happens to be who I saw yesterday, and I'm equally pleased.
I've also received pedicures on several occasions and I'm equally pleased with their work as well, however I only do this when the salon isn't packed. I've seen a great many of their clients leave with different types of services and the work always looks good regardless of type of manicure, pedicure, polish, etc..
The level of friendliness varies by tech from extremely friendly to introverts only there to do their job. Again, I would usually take away from their overall score but I'm happy with the work received and I'm introverted myself and don't visit to make friends.
Overall, I always leave happy with the work received and plan on spending upwards of 2 hours each visit. The salon is clean and the nail technicians are well trained. Expect longer than normal wait times, noisy groups of teenagers, men and some solitude during service since not every technician is overly friendly. However, you'll also receive good work.

This is my fifth time going and I've gotten the same techs for the last few times, both have been great. My pedi tech is great, very polite and meets my needs each time. It's a standard pedi nothing fancy and the massage time is wonderful. For my nails I do the SNS dip powder, also no complaints. The Male tech is exceptionally friendly and one of the more outgoing of techs there. The work is perfect, I've not had any issues and love the dip formula. Both techs have been spot on in meeting my requests regarding length and shaping. I did only give it four stars because one time, my second visit I had a Male tech for a pedicure (not the same as above) and he was too harsh in removing my cuticles causing me to bleed. Plus there have been a couple times I've gone during a peak hour and have had to wait, I just go on one of the low traffic hours from Google and haven't had any wait time longer than 10 minutes now. Overall this is a great little place to just get your nails and treat yourself.

This is where I usually go to get my nails done but the last time I’ve went here I came around 10 on a Thursday thinking it wouldn’t be that busy. I was the only one in the waiting area and the owner kept saying 10 minuets after every 20 Minuets would go by needles to say I was there waiting over and hour to get a pedicure while there were other workers asleep in one of the chairs or sitting and watching tv on their phone. After the wait she proceeded to sit me in a chair that the massage was broken out of it I asked politely if I could move to a different one because I was paying $25 and I wanted a massaging chair she gave me a dirty look and said it’s going to be another half hour if I wanted a massaging chair whenever there were 4 other ones that were open. I walked out and I’m never going back again
