L L Nail Spa

I really torn about this review. I’ve been here a few times before and had great expeirences. However, today was horrible. It was crowded and lucky me gets a nail tech that’s rushing to the point where I had to tell her to calm down and take her time because I want my mani pedi done right!!! But did she listen??? Nooooo!!! Rushed through them both. Get back to work and there’s nail polish all over the tops of my toes!!! Dead skin still on the tops!!! She was inattentive and distracted the whole time. And to think I walked over from Metrotech. Passed at least 5 other salons to get to this 1 and she does a sucky job. Upsets me when I feel the need to get another pedicure to correct the 1 I already paid for. Can’t stand for people to waste my time and money!!! Not going back!!!

I walked in on a Sat afternoon and it was very busy. I’d have been fine if they’d told me to wait. Instead they assigned a girl who looked about twelve. When I asked about the «buffing» manicure she said she didn’t know what it involved and went to ask someone else. She was very tentative working on my nails and there was no massage or exfoliation at all. I couldn’t figure out if she was tickling my nails or pushing back my cuticles. I decided to get just the manicure and leave. I will definitely not be going back. I felt sorry for the child and gave her a big tip for the «manicure» and left.

Had a great experience here today – actually walked out feeling grateful for the salon’s existence!
I’ve only gotten like 5 pedicures or manicures in my life, but now that I’ve been to this place and live nearby, I might make it a more regular habit.
The staff is professional, efficient, and made me feel more comfortable than I ever have at any other nail place.
I walked in on a whim because of the sidewalk sign advertising the $ 30 manicure&pedicure deal. The place was busy but – and after watching the staff work, I saw how they seamlessly moved customers from chair to chair so that no one waits too long but no one feels rushed either – I was taken care of right away.
For a «basic» mani and pedi, there were a lot of luxurious extra touches that I really appreciated, like hot towels, thick lotion, and massage.
My nails look great, and I didn’t have to experience any awkward moments or buyer’s remorse (like the «ugh, I just spent way too much money!» feeling I usually have after getting a manicure) to make it happen.

LL nails is my go to nail salon. Very clean, very friendly staff, and tons of color selections. I’ve also recommended a male friend try this place and they were very pleased with a spa pedicure. *Bonus* for every ten manicures you get a free massage!

This was the first time i am here but I can easily say that i’ll be coming back!
Great mani&pedi spot, and during your pedi you sit on the massage chair, that is already included to the services… I was having pain on my leg, but now after a 10 min massage, it’s gone! My friend had one of the spa deal, she is extremely happy too…
I also watched people having extra 20 minutes massages (10 min=$ 10), looks so relaxing, and finally ended up having one too… I can say that it’s better than most of the places!

Very happy with my $ 40 mani pedi foot massage package. She took her sweet time — didn’t get out of there til over an hour later. Great deal! Will be coming back again next time

I return here every 2 weeks to get my nails done. They go out of their way to provide you with whatever service you want. I’m always happy with how my nails look after. Get the 10 minute massage for $ 10 — best $ 10 dollars you’ll spend! All the ladies that work their are polite and the place itself is new and clean. I live in the neighborhood and so happy they have opened.

Can’t speak about the service as the place was closed at 8:00 pm although their closing time says 8:30 so guess I’ll have to wait for another time to try it. This gets two stars because I specifically went out of my way to go here because of the later closing time and it seems wasteful of my time and dishonest to close earlier. Btw, place was packed so not as though closed bc not enough customers.

Lovely and inexpensive nail spot. Efficient but not sloppy. Clean. Sweet women working here.

Had a really great experience here for a gel mani and regular pedicure. I am now into my second week with the gel mani and my nails still look perfect. Grown out a bit, of course, but the color has stayed on extremely well (I used OPI GelColor.) Very happy! And they have a loyalty card which is awesome, I feel like no nail salons use those any more.

LL Nail Spa was super clean and there was no wasting time while I was on there. When I walked in the place was busy, but I was seated right in a chair and someone began doing my nails. The place is packed with staff an no one is waiting time. Everyone was polite and my nails and eyebrows look amazing. The prices are super reasonable and their deals and great.

A nice spot to zone out for a low-​frills pamper session.
Mani-​pedi here is $ 30 and there’s a beloved punch card. The space is large and clean — a huge improvement over many of the cramped and dank discount nail joints. The staff isn’t chatty (which I like); they just hunker down to rid your heels of the NYC streets while the cushy massage chairs go to town on your back. And somehow the quick shoulder rub they gift you at the nail dryer just really changes my outlook on life.
I’ve always left with well-​shaped, perfectly-​polished nails. And the one time I caught a bad bottle that chipped the next day, they touched-​up the offending nails without batting an eyelash. NAILING IT!

I find it hard to find a quality nail salon that isn’t terribly expensive but still is clean. For some reason most salons don’t follow the standards of cleanliness that’s required and it’s possible to pick up something unsanitary by going there. I live in downtown brooklyn but there isn’t much here for me to choose from. I saw the good reviews and photos on Unilocal for this salon and tried it out. I must say I’ve been happy with the service and results of my nails. They are helpful and clean and always seem bust so that indicates that many clients feel the same. It’s a little more than I’ve paid for similar treatments but I think worth it for the quality you receive. I plan to make this my main salon.

Save your self the frustration, the staff doesnt provide quality service. Three 3 days into my gel manicure the polish started to fade.
Now I have to go back and get it fixed, SMH.
I like to get a service done CORRECTLY the first time! I wont be going back after they fix this problem.
The nail technician was nice, but spoke minimal English and obviously not a great technician Or their products are just of POOR QUALITY.
Avoid this place.

Great Nail Salon! My husband and I came in here on a weekday to pamper ourselves, and boy, we did. We got one of their specials, the mani/​pedi and 10min massage for $ 40. They also have mani/​pedi for $ 30 if you don’t want a massage, but for $ 10, why not!
I got a 10min foot massage and my husband got a back massage. The girls were kind, and quite strong actually, lol. But they pay attention and ask questions if you like a softer massage like myself.
The color selection is pretty great too. Lots of OPI and Esse to choose from. I think next time I may do the gel, they have a special for $ 52 gel mani /​pedi. I had a french pedicure, which was a couple of extra dollars, but most nail salons charge an extra couple bucks to do a french.
Clean foot spas and friendly nail techs, overall this is a great spot! We’ll definitely be back :)

I came here with my sister. Staff was friendly, utensils were clean, service was quick. I had a great experience with the woman who did my mani-​pedi and my nails looked great leaving the salon. However, my sister didn’t have such luck. A couple of her nails had the smudged, foggy look and she had to ask for them to be re-​painted. The woman working on her nails did so reluctantly and even after the re-​do, they took forever to dry and never looked shiny and polished. My sister ended up re-​doing them herself a day or two later. Quality is definitely inconsistent.

This review is for 3.5 stars.
The place is standard as far as mani-​pedis go. They advertise a $ 30 special for the combo but it comes out to $ 32 before tip. I’m pretty happy with the way my nails look but could’ve used a little more pampering.
Pros — friendly service, lots of OPI nail polish color options, short neck massage as nails dry, massage pedicure chairs, hot wax treatment on heels
Cons — no exfoliant or scrub during pedicure, minimal massage during manicure and pedicure, hot towel was almost non-​existent.
I’ve had better/​more inclusive mani-​pedis for this same price so I’m a bit disappointed by this place. There was another place on Atlantic called Choi’s that I preferred but it looks to be closed now.

I have FINALLY found a salon in my neighborhood that is a keeper: the staff is friendly, the environment is immaculate, and the prices are reasonable. The manicurists don’t try to push products or upgrades on you and are extremely meticulous with your hands. I recommend this establishment to anyone who is tired of paying too much for subpar service. Check this place out!

This is my favorite nail spa. I travel from Ditmas Park to this nail spa, because it’s very clean and the technicians are very nice. What impresses me the most is seeing the male owner giving manicures/​pedicures right along with his staff. I always consider myself very lucky to have him give me a manicure/​pedicure, as he’s very, very good and kind.
I really would have liked to have given L L Nail Spa 5 stars, but there’s one technician (Emily) that I’ve had 3 different times. She doesn’t know how to do manicures/​pedicures correctly (puts cuticle oil on nails first and then, soaks the nails with the oil on instead of soaking the nail beds first and then, applying the cuticle oil and cleaning up cuticles — she did this for both the manicure and pedicure). During my last visit, I was surprised that she didn’t use new sterilized tools, was very rushed and as usual with her, some of my nails were filed unevenly.

Great! I was lucky and I’ve had a very good girl. It’s a little too far from me, but it’s worth it. it’s in a really good location tho.
