WORST SALON IVE EVER BEEN TO. I never care enough to post reviews but all I could think about through the duration of my manicure was how much I need to express to others this place. For someone who consistently gets manicures every 2-3 weeks I feel as though I can confidently review a place as such. I get dip manicures, and very often get tips on my nails. Every place I have ever gone to has had the same routine for tips. I had 2 broken nails and needed 2 tips. For starters, the woman attempted removing mydip with a nail file while there were perfectly good drills that others were utilizing right next to her. (Pictured) When all else (still not using the drill) failed she proceeded to use a METROCARD (can we talk about how unsanitary?) to remove my dip. (I SHOULDVE LEFT HERE!!! Shame on me) Considering how regularly and long I have been getting dip manicures my nails are fairly weak. I politely asked the girl who was so aggressively filing down on my nails to please be careful as she was about to break the rest of my nails. She somewhat listened. Another woman then came by to attach my 2 tips. On one finger she placed a tip, on the next she placed a piece of gauze in which she start cutting with eyebrow scissors and putting a powder substance on it to "make it look more natural". As you can see in the image the "more natural" nail is quite literally resembling the beak of Donald Duck. Not to mention I was here for 2 HOURS and couldn’t even find the salon initially because you have to trek up 3 floors. In some hidden doorway. I am afraid of the quality and fear this manicure (for $70) will not last more than a week.

UPDATE: pictured is my nail falling off after 4 DAYS!!!!!!!! I repeat do not go to this place....

I’ve been going to Andrea for Mani/Pedi for over ten years & she’s THEE BEST!

Her attention to detail and patience level with me are top notch! She fixes any nail trauma & has a firm hand which puts me into a nap state during the massage... I’ll book with Norma(she’s also AMAZING) when Andrea is unavailable and won’t think twice about it!

Sonny does my waxing, Brazilian and underarms. I’ve never allowed anyone else to perform a Brazilian and likely never will. She’s funny and able to distract me from the pain and I’ve always felt comfortable! In fact I only started waxing because my expensive bestie ranted about the procedure upon a NYC visit...

I live in Mott Haven, Bronx and travel back to my old neighborhood to access quality service and professionalism because a bad mani/pedi can ruin your whole week!!! I’d likely travel here from another state if I had to, this place has become like family...Susan, the owner is also the reason this place will likely be the longest running nail salon in all of NYC!

Book TODAY, you won’t be disappointed! Call NOW!

Oh! And the massage chairs are an extra bonus!!! This was a more recent addition, yet I’m not surprised - this place gets...

I’ve come here for years and have always had excellent services and treatment. But everyone at SoHo Nails - especially Blanca, Jenny & Norma - really went above and beyond for me at my appointment this past Friday.

Friday was my birthday, which got off to a rocky start and all of them went above and beyond to make sure my nails and eyebrows were exactly what I wanted and were done as quickly as possible because of my running late for another appointment. I accidentally picked the wrong color and Jenny & Blanca - who were already working quickly together to simultaneously do my gel pedicure and gel tip set - saw that I was upset and came up with such a beautiful and unique color combo I never would’ve picked for myself without me even having to say anything.

Thanks to them my nails & eyebrows are PERFECT!!! I’ve gotten constant compliments since Friday and I can’t stop staring at them. I will always come back here and I can’t recommend them enough to anyone who will...
