Zenisalon Nail & Spa

My first time in this place… My manicurist name Michelle have done a great good, very friendly and sweet.

Very clean place and stuff also very kind. I did my nail for spring last week. Highly recommend ~

Very clean and sterile environment. The technicians are very thorough. I workout a ton so I know my feet aren’t the prettiest but they don’t seem to judge! It’s conveniently located to the ferry as well and the hours are flexible. Price isn’t bad either.

This is a welcoming, clean and consistent salon. They are always quick yet thorough (my nails tend to break and Nancy always takes the time and effort to fix the breaks before applying color).
Love this place– I go all the time and never have an appointment but they fit me right in. Highly recommend

I do think they dilute the nail polish here. I have not seen them do it but I’ve had enough manicures here to know that the new bottles always last longer on my nails. When I go I try to choose a color that looks much newer otherwise they will chip within 2 days. It’s really annoying but I find myself going back because they are literally across the street. They’re not that friendly there either. They really don’t even care if you try to talk to them. One time one of the manicurists was sleeping with her head down right next to me. So awkward!

Just got a pedicure dont go here!!! The nail polish bubbles up and she cut me with the cuticle cutter plus she clipped my toenails uneven! Im so upset!

Way overpriced and they do an awful job… My tech barely used any lotion on my hands, and she didn’t do any kind of hand scrub or massage… Which is why I skipped out on getting a pedi. I’m sticking with Nail Atelier… Much friendlier, professional, and I actually get my money’s worth!

Do not go here. There are two much better salons within walking distance. Went here a few years ago after it first opened, then again recently and not much has changed. The staff is incredibly rude to walkins and scheduled appointments alike. Pedicure techs mock clients in Spanish in front of their faces. On top of this the salon very clearly thins out their polish as evidenced by how quickly it chips/​bubbles. Will not be giving them a third chance.

They don’t use razors they give ok pedicures I would not recommend this place there is a ton better places

I usually come here all the time and it’s pretty good, but the quality of their service changes when they are busy. They rush, they are unfriendly, and they do NOT pamper their customers. I felt like I was on a conveyor belt. I’m disappointed in myself for not going elsewhere – definitely not my go to spot anymore and that’s a shame, they lost a loyal customer.

while getting a gel manicure, the polish kept evaporating off my nails before I would even get it into the UV lights. When I pointed this out to he male technician, he blamed it on me and insisted it was because I was wiping my face with my nails…
Seems like they thin their nail polishes out. I will not be returning.

My worst Brazilian wax ever, i recently moved to the area and wanted to try a local, close by salon to get a Brazilian wax. i was skeptical because this place didnt have good reviews but it looked clean and experienced. anyhow, i think this was the waxers first time. first of all the wax was way to hot and burned me several times so she blew on every stick before applying it on me, she fumbled with the strips and had to re due the same spot over and over and over again, it took about 45 min total. i couldnt help but laugh at how comical this was. her gloves kept getting stuck on the wax on my skin. she ripped my skin so i bled. when she was almost finished i noticed she had been double dipping the entire time. sooo groooossssss!!! my gut feeling said, get out now before its too late when she had started but i didnt want to be rude.
when i got up i had wax all over and my underwear were stuck to my skin. ugh.
i will never go back and im hoping to save you the trouble and money to never go either.

I’ve been going to this place for the past 3 years and I never had a problem with it. Recently, they hired vert unprofessional and rude staff, mainly men. Now I had an incident with one of them after coloring my nails. The color is stuck at the bottom of the bottle and is thick on the brush. The brush left marks on my nail then needed to be fixed. When I told the guy to fix it, he said you did that! I said it’s the brush but he started arguing. I flipped out on him. It’s his job to fix my nails, brush or no brush. He said something in Chinese, since they all are except the pedicure girls, and then the F word. I lost it then! I yelled at him and he got intimidated and changed his tone until another colleague of his started laughing. I saw no reason for her reaction so I asked her what’s funny and she said sorry he was only saying get the color in Chinese! I told her the color is right her in front of me unless you guys use the F word for something else in your language. She said sorry and chose to do the messed nail. I left with no tip and I will come back because this place is good. I want the management to spend more time selecting its staff instead of those lame unprofessional cheap folks they bring.

Since moving to Hoboken a few months ago — I have been to this place twice. The first time wasn’t a great experience but the second was the worst. The pedicure was very very average — the technician did not really scrap all the dead skin — I saw some which I had to keep telling her to take out during the process. It was so obivous — why wait for me to tell you. She wouldn’t have removed it because I waited and when I saw it not happening — that’s when I mentioned it.
The guy manicurist is the worse. He makes faces at you. First of all — he did not ask me how I would like to have my nails shaped! When he was shaping my nails square — I told him that I wanted it round — he gave this really bad glare.
Hello !!! I am paying for what I want. I did not like the attitude of the people of the people there.
For sure I will not be going back there and do not recommend people either. Simply rude

After a disastrous trip to a nail salon near my job, I arrived at Zenisalon with short chipped nails and a smudged pedicure hoping they could salvage it. What a wonderful experience! I arrived right at 9:30 when they opened and they greeted me warmly and sat me down immediately. The woman who did my pedicure was so sweet and did a spa-​worthy job. I appreciated that when I asked for the callous remover she told me what the extra cost would be and asked if it was okay, which it was, and totally worth it! My barely-​there broken nails now look clean healthy and polished thanks to the expert technician who did my manicure. I walked out feeling so happy and grateful for this clean, well run, local salon.

This place is VERY on and off. Sometimes I go and I get a manicure that doesn’t chip for a week and other times I go and the manicure bubbles the next day.
My last visit was not a good one. I walk in and ask how long until a manicure and there response was just «I don’t know», which when going to nail salons you can pretty much always get an estimate. Then right before I got my manicure the person doing my nails put dilute in the bottle right in front of me! I’ve heard of places doing this to make their bottles last longer, but its not good for the manicure (i.e chips easily). I was so annoyed that they weren’t even trying to hide that they were going to give me a sub-​par manicure. Sure enough, my manicure bubbled almost immediately.
On a positive note, they give great massages and also have always done a good job on my eyebrows. I have typically gone for convenience of location, but I think I need a new place.

This has been my go-​to for about 4 years but quality and service have gone downhill recently! Most recently I got a shellac mani & a regular pedi (as I have many times in the past) and BOTH started chipping the very next day. Hugely disappointing, especially considering that their prices are on the higher side — which I used to not mind since their services were so great. As of late, it’s very hit or miss — wish they would get back to the level of quality they used to be at! I’ll be taking my business elsewhere for now…

This place is good one day and sucks the next. So inconsistent with quality and cleanliness. The pedicure girls are barely trained and not really pleasant. The manicure girls are forceful and made me bleed twice. When you complain they don’t care.
Spend your money elsewhere.

This is my «go to» nail spa! If you’re headed over on wknd afternoon, book ahead because it is jamming here! This is a great nail spa as the technicians are skillful and speedy; they really know what they’re doing! Service is great overall and they use good products too.

You get what you pay for especially when going cheap on your mani/​pedis. I’ve been going to this salon since December ’11 and I won’t go any other place.
My manicures last for at least a week and a half-​which is unheard with natural nails. They only use OPI and Essie which probably helps. The pedicures are fantastic and still look good weeks later.
They are on the pricier side but worth it. The salon is gorgeous and very clean. The staff is super nice and always ask how my baby daughter is doing-​love that!
