Sun Nails

I got my nails done here based on the awesome reviews I read. I came here on a Friday afternoon prior to leaving for a cruise vacation on Saturday. I had a great experience and was happy with how my tips and pedicure came out. I was really impressed with the care and time that they took to do my nails, as well as the cleanliness of the salon. The reason for four stars instead of five is that on Monday, my tips started falling off. I haven’t gotten tips in a long time, but I know they’re supposed to last more than 4 full days! If i had been home I definitely would have gone back, but I was on vacation until the following Sunday, at which point it would be too late. Almost all of the tips had popped off by Friday, at which point I decided to just take the remaining 3 off myself. If I had been working and using my hands a lot I would understand, but I was on vacation. I think I would try them again, but maybe just stick with a gel mani next time.

First off, let me start by saying, this place is very clean. The women that work here are cute and friendly, the guys, not so much. I went for my first time with my Mom on Saturday, which was pretty busy. My feet were way over due for a pedicure. My last one was in January, so they needed some work. We each got the $ 45 pedicures and had our eyebrows waxed. The stuff they put on our legs and feet was excellent. My feet and legs were super smooth. However, at the end of the pedicure, it got really busy and we felt rushed out of there. With the money we spent, we should have been able to have had the complete experience, not the half ass experience. My Mom told the girl who was doing her feet that she wanted her eyebrows waxed and I did the same. The guy who was doing my feet literally threw the nail polish on my toes. It looked like a toddler painted them. I am not kidding. I made him redo them and he let me know he was pissed and I didn’t care. He had already started doing someone else’s nails mind you, and forgot about my eyebrow waxing. So after he painted my toe nails again, he left me hanging. No eyebrow waxing and still a crappy job on the nail polish. The girl who finally did our eyebrows after being asked repeatedly, did do a good job. I may give them another chance, but I am on the fence. If I do, I will request one of the ladies to do my feet rather than deal with the rude guy.

After seeing Mary B. give a positive review of this salon (In looking for a new nail salon in CT, I noticed her name popped up at various places) — I thought I’d try. This nail salon was clean, quiet (I went during the week after work) and has AMAZING customer service!
and my nails look adorable!

I wish I was able to conjure up enough adjectives to convey how pleasantly surprised I was with this nail salon. My nail salon is booked solid for the next two weeks, so I cheated because my fingers & toes were in dire need of a refresh. And just like cheating on your high school boyfriend, you’re nervous and feel guilty but then you do it, and realize there is a whole other world out there — and sometimes it’s nice to try other things.
I received hands down one of the best pedicures of my life here. The 10 minute complimentary message was done by none other than a man with magic hands after he meticulously shaped and polished my toes. My CND (only shellac I’ll use) gel manicure is flawless, and was done by whom I can only assume is the sweetest business owner ever. Included in the gel mani is a shoulder massage and a paraffin dip! For $ 55, plus 5% cash back for future services this is more a deal.
While I am a creature of habit and will never leave my salon, in the event they’re booked, or I have a group of girl friends who want to go to a walk in salon for some pampering this is exactly where I’ll bring them.

Sun Nails is one of the best nail salons in CT!
I’ve been to tons of nail salons and some are nicer in décor, but very few deliver the same level of quality that Sun does.
They take their time with you and want to make sure the job is done to your satisfaction. They also provide a nice shoulder, neck, and back massage once your services are complete.
The facility is clean and the staff is super friendly.
As a man, I feel completely comfortable going here by myself.
Definitely check this place out!

Wonderful pedicure experience and much more. Hot stones and wax on heels and a neck massage to finish up. I recommend this shop to everyone. I’m visiting from Massachusetts and the place I usually go was closed, so glad it was closed.

I had been looking for a place that could compare to the original nail salon in Rhode island that I started getting my manicures done with shellac and gel nail polish. To no avail had I found anywhere in CT that was up to snuff. I recently relocated and decided to pop in to Sun Nails, I was apprehensive as I had recently had a very disappointing experience with a place called Family Nails on Dixwell ave in Hamden, CT. I walked into Sun Nails which displayed a sign (under new management) after a few questions to staff, I decided to get my nails done. Not only was I not disappointed but I was pleasantly surprised and satisfied beyond my belief! The gel manicure was impeccable and for the price I received more than expected! Manicure with gel polish, paraffin dip, shoulder massage and hand and forearm massage. I felt refreshed and renewed and they’re open on Sundays! This is my new nail salon home!

I went to Sun Nails last night on my way home from work for a gel manicure. The woman with chin length hair did an AMAZING job on my nails. She was so diligent and made sure they were perfect. She also asked me repeatedly if I liked the shape/​length of my nails, which I appreciated since most nail technicians never ask me. Another employee came over twice during my manicure to give me a massage. I was pleasantly surprised that they also used paraffin wax at the end of the manicure so my hands were super soft.
I also got my eyebrows waxed and the same woman did an excellent job.
It came to $ 38 for a gel manicure an eyebrow wax, which I thought was reasonable for the great job they did. She also gave me a $ 5 coupon for the next time I go and she enrolled me in their bonus program (you get 5% credit of each purchase to use in the future).
I will definitely be back! My nails and eyebrows came out great and they were so kind!

The best, they do a very thorough job. They also are very pleasant and give the best massages. Affordable prices, pretty results.

A must Go to!!! I have never written a review but, this place calls for one! So amazing. I paid 55.00 for the most amazing pedicure with hot stones, paraffin treatment and an amazing massage! Also included was a shellac manicure which included a hand, back and shoulder massage and paraffin treatment! I’m in heaven right now! Happy customer!

I always have a great experience coming to this place for manis and pedis. Manicures include paraffin treatment and shoulder massage and pedicures include foot massage. Staff is also very friendly!

Thanks to Siri, I came across this place traveling back to New Haven. I had a really great experience and will definitely be back. My pedicure was amazing and included a foot and leg massage. My manicure was also great and included paraffin treatment and a shoulder massage. The staff was really courteous and the place was very clean.

This place is amazing! My mom and I went last week and both thought it was the best pedicure experience we’ve ever had (and we’re seasoned pedicure-​ers). It is incredibly clean, the staff is super sweet, the prices are so reasonable, and the MASSAGE at the end is unreal. I would pay money for a massage like that! Can’t wait to go back.

Great experience! Amazing foot and shoulder massages during the pedicure. Good color availability, great service. Very clean, they use individual nail sets which I like!

I was highly impressed by the pedicure I had at sun nails this morning. It was so relaxing! I received an amazing massage with the regular pedi! The staff was very friendly and the prices were very reasonable. I will certainly be going back in a few weeks!
