Paris Nail Spa

Great manicures! Ekkkk Questionable cleanliness!
I actually used to come here biweekly until management changed. The previous owner was great and kept the place super clean.
For the most part all my visits have been great. However due to recent events on separate occasions, I felt a need to leave a comment after my recent visits were all consistently questionable.
These are from two separate visits half a year apart.
1: They REUSE their foil for the soak. How can I tell they were used foil? You know when u flatten out a crumpled up foil? That’s what it looked like. In other words… They recycle foil. After they remove the foil, instead of tossing in garbage I saw the technician dump them in a box on the shelf. This has never happened before and I don’t know if it was a fluke. But it raised a lot of red flags about their hygiene protocols.
2. Recycled towels. I don’t need to elaborate but I’ve been visiting nail salons long enough to know what a clean towel looks like. This was clearly used, bunched up in a corner somewhere that she shook out and tried to use on me.
Maybe they have made changes in the past month, who knows. Just keep an eye out on the equipment and supplies they use on you.

I got horrible tips in Brooklyn and traveled all the way there because I’ve recently relocated from Brooklyn to queens and knew nothing about queens. My coworker told me about this place to repair my awful nails and joy fixed them. Although one broke because I’m so rough (and I’m in here now soaking it off), I am definitely remaining a loyal customer… plus she is funny, speaks good English, and remembers your name! The others do a phenomenal job on pedicures also and I recommend this place to everyone.

This review is based on my experience yesterday. The regular nail salon I go to saw closed so I called here a few minutes before closing and asked if I could still come in. The person I spoke to was Joy and she told me to come in. When I got there everyone was very friendly and I enjoyed my experience. My nails came out great and i had a great conversation with Joy as she did my nails. I would recommend this salon to anyone not just because of the good service but also because of the friendly environment and willingness to accommodate their customers.

Thanks so much for taking me last minute on a Sunday night!

Joys a nice woman and the pedicures are good and everyone is friendly but my nails came out horrible. Part of the acrylic on the sides were missing polish, some nails werent shaped as good as others and my cuticles looked a mess. Wouldn’t recommend or return.

I’m in NY for my sons wedding & wanted to get my nails done but had no idea where to go. Based on Unilocal reviews I made an appointment with Joy. I am sooooo happy I did! She is amazing! She took her time to make sure my nails were perfect for the big day. If I lived closer she would definitely be my nail lady!

Joy thank u so much. Came 20 min all the way from queens to see u and u won me over. I’ve been here 2 after. Best thing to do is call before for an appointment but not mandatory

I got fungus on 3 of my nails from this place. As well deep deep indentations on my natural nails from the machine filing. This has been the worst experience ever. I came to Joy because of the amazing reviews. Boy what a mistake. I had tips put on here before I went on vacation and gel nail polish. They looked so unnatural, super thick and unshapely. But I was strapped for time and was leaving in a couple days. I had to leave them as is. Then 2 weeks after I returned I noticed dark spots forming under my nails and it was fungus. I had to soak and remove them and what was underneath was so much damage! It was also super expensive! And not worth it any way. I also traveled from 30 minutes away and it was the worst most expensive nail experience ever.

This nail salon is amazing! I am very picky about my nails and Joy ALWAYS does an amazing job! I even pick out nail designs or ideas that I find and she copies them for me exactly :) They also have a huge selection of color gel colors. I highly recommend this place.

OMG! Joy is the best nail technician ever. It is my first time here (after a while trying to find the right nail salon for me) and I think it is safe to say that I will keep coming here. Joy takes her time and gives you the treatment you deserve.
Before coming in I made an appointment. I could no longer make it the day of my original appointment, so I called early in the morning to postpone it to the next day (same time). There was absolutely no problem with that.
The day of my appointment I was excited to see if this place was as good as the reviews on Unilocal portray it to be. Guess what? IT IS!
I parked on a side street next to the business. There are those little parking machines (up to 2 hours). I walked in and Joy instantly put the acetone with the aluminum foil on my nails (which had gel on them).
I got all the gel colors so that I could decide which one I wanted while I got my pedi done. The technician that did my pedi was super patient and showed me how two different colors looked since I was undecided. After my pedi I went to get my manicure with Joy.
She is a perfectionist. She is a professional that really wants all of her customers to have a unique experience. I just did a gel manicure (nothing extra) but she made sure my natural nails were perfectly squared. Pedi + Mani totaled $ 40!
Definitely coming back! This will be my new go to nail salon.

Joy has just the best heart and does amazing work ! Lily is also super lovely too. I’ve been trying different places but this is going to be my staple nail salon in Queens !
** UPDATE Now they do Powder Gel!!! It looks absolutely amazing. See photo with brand details and coral colour.

This is my new favorite nail spot! Absolutely love how Joy made my itty bitty nails into a work of art. Joy is so sweet and does amazing work. LOVE LOVE LOVE

Everyone that comments about how wonderful Joy is: they are absolutely correct. Not only did Joy do an impeccable job with my tips, but she let me know that the initial shape I wanted wouldn’t look best on my nails, and suggested I do something less dramatic. I let her do what she does best and I am SO happy with my nails. All Joy wants is for her customers to leave happy and she does a great job at ensuring that they do. My search for a salon stops here! The rest of the staff was also so friendly and considerate, as well. The trip from Ridgewood to Bayside was well worth it and I will be returning!

I had to get my nails done for my best friends wedding and I really wanted them to look
and you know why not cause treat yo self. But I made an appointment for 12pm when I called them at around 10am. I came in and first off I wasn’t necessarily greeted by everyone but I nonetheless I had to go up to one person and tell them I had an appointment. While I was getting my nails done I noticed they probably had regulars come in which was fine but I mean I was a new customer and so I felt slightly out of place. I asked Joy for acrylics and she recommended gel nails cause the picture I showed her she recommended gel so I trusted her. She was very accommodating but at one point I felt that she was rushing my nails and while she was using the electric filer I assume? I’m not sure what the proper name is but she cut me on my pinky which hurt quite a lot. But other than that she took her time perfecting my nails and they came out exactly how I wanted. It’s my
first time really getting my nails done and I had a good experience. I would definitely recommend. Ask for Joy! She’s amazing.

Got there shortly after they opened on a Sunday. The girl I had (forgot to ask her name) did a great job on my mani & pedi.
Place was very clean!
All the other ladies were doing the whole time I was there was cleaning the place.
Definitely plan on going back!

Joy has left me full of JOY. I was under the impression that it would be frowned upon to request a specific style that is unique to each hand, until I met Joy. Joy and her entire staff are very self aware, understanding and professionally talented.
I wholeheartedly recommend that you visit them for nail needs and if you want something done specifically, don’t be afraid to ask, they’re all super talented and understanding.

It was my first time coming here and I left very satisfied with the outcome. This place was packed when I got there considering it was the holiday season. I was 30 minutes late for my appointment but Joy took me right after her client. A star for that.
It was my first time trying the oval acrylic gel nails so I was a bit skeptical about it at first. But at the end, it was perfect. Prices are decent too. It came up to $ 60 with tips included.

I come from Brooklyn for Joy at Paris Nail Spa to do my nails. I usually get a sculptured gel manicure and a regular pedicure. I also get my eyebrows waxed. I don’t believe that it’s one the already that I am coming to Paris Nail Spa for Joy who is excellent at doing my nails and eyebrows. I don’t mind traveling from Brooklyn on access A RIDE (I am disabled at the moment) for the awesome service plus great conversation. The staff is very respectable and friendly.
Moreover, as mentioned previously the facility is very clean and the décor is beautiful. I would continue to highly recommend Paris Nail Spa.

I found this place right after work. Joy did an amazing job on my nails. She took her time and made sure that I liked my nails too. We had great conversation and she made a tough day much better. For someone who takes her nails seriously I was pleasantly surprised at the outcome. Simple yet chic!
I will be back of course and I’m bringing some friends with me.

I made an appointment for 3 people at 1:00 on Christmas Eve for mani/​pedis. Crazy time to make an appointment especially for 3 people but what the heck this place had great write ups so I figured this was the ultimate test.
When we walked in there were people waiting and my first thought was, uh oh, this is going to be a waiting issue. We were pleasantly surprised to find out that those sitting did not have an appointment so we were taken on schedule.
Myself, plain mani/​pedi no polish. Lots of attention to cleaning, scrubbing and a nice leg massage.
My daughter, plain mani/​pedi with polish. Again, lots attention to detail and I absolutely enjoy watching my ticklish daughter squirm… wrong of me?
Now the best part, my daughters boyfriend who had never had a pedicure before, oh my, was he in heaven. He said, «wow, why have we never done this before». Then he too was ticklish, so I enjoyed that show also. Sarah was working on his feet and after the massage she asked him if he wanted color. Hilarious. He asked my daughter…“Do I want color? She said No, he said… I didn’t think so”. The ladies were enjoying his inexperience at this whole mani/​pedi thing. Something tells me when they get back to Houston he will be joining my daughter on her mani/​pedi visits.
We were totally pleased with our service at Paris Nail Spa. I will definitely be coming back here again in the future.
