Clover Nails

Regular manicure is $ 10 and you get what you pay for. Nails filed down into little squares and uneven. Some polish to the cuticle and some with a gap. I won’t return.

Got the Euro balsam which helps remove rough cuticles and calluses in 5 min, so the poster claims. It worked, but I live in the city. so they’re obviously coming back.
Micaela was my technician and she was very thorough. I definitely felt the she gave me the full attention and service deserving of $ 37.
The place/​environment is not the cleanest or the prettiest. The owner, I’m guessing, has apparently been able to lure A-​list celebrities (well, depends on who you consider to be A-​list.) like Selena Gomez and Kim Kardashian into this location. She has a neon poster on the wall of pictures with them. SUPER hard to believe, but I mean, she’s got pictures so good for her.

My gel manicure didn’t chip for 3 weeks, eventually grew out but never chipped! I recommend Elizabeth. She takes her time and makes your nails look fantastic !

I was going to give four stars at first but due to one little incident in the end, I decided to take off one star. I was looking for spa pedicure with paraffin heel treatment. The staff recommended the callus removal pedicure, which was $ 37 – not a bad deal for NYC. The process was pretty standard and okay. At the end, when I was drying my toe nail, I realized there was a small chip on one of my toe nails, and I asked them to quickly fix it. I don’t really know how it happened… maybe I tripped? But they added $ 2 to the bill just because they put on more polish on that nail. $ 2 wasn’t a big deal, and I was going to tip more because of that anyways. It was the attitude that I got was not cool… overall experience was okay.

I debated on whether I should leave a review of this place or not because I don’t like leaving negative reviews in general and nor do I like to whine. However, I think it’s important for everyone to be aware of the carelessness of one of their nail techs.
Earlier this week I was in the area so decided to get a quick pedi and mani and boy, was that a mistake. Everything was normal when I walked in; they asked me what I needed and led me to a pedicure seat.
As I was in a rush two nail techs worked on me at the same time; Tania was doing my pedicure and Debbie was doing my manicure. Long story short, Tania made my left big toe bleed by aggressively sticking in the metal push tool instrument into the corner of my outer toenail. I Unilocaled (no pun intended) and pulled my whole foot back. She immediately said sorry but then blamed me that I was bleeding because I was moving my foot around. NO, I’M BLEEDING BECAUSE YOU POKED ME. I’ve been getting pedicures for over 10+ years and this is the first time I’ve ever bled. She also kept trying to upscale me to a nicer spa pedicure and asked twice if I wanted quick dry polish. All I wanted was for her to hurry up so I could get the hell out.
Debbie tried to distract me and make up for it but it was too late for that. She did a good job with my manicure but because of the negative experience with my toe I won’t be visiting again.
My toe was throbbing all afternoon and being deathly afraid of getting some kind of crazy infection I’ve been soaking it in a peroxide bath every night. So far it seems okay.
Everyone — BEWARE!!!

Nube did a great job on my nails! The only thing I didn’t like was they charged me 5 dollars to remove the shellac from my previous mani since I didn’t get it done there. Not sure if this is normal for nail salons or not? Overall, very happy though! I will return!

The longest lasting manicure I’ve had — a basic manicure lasted two weeks without any chips! I’m very active and crafty so my nails usually chip 2 days after a manicure.

It pains me to do this because I have been a regular customer for over 2 years, never going anywhere else even though I eventually moved jobs so it was inconvenient for me to come here. The owner is super nice and attentive so I hate having to write this but my experience yesterday was just so bad.
Tania was absolutely the worst. It was the shortest mani and pedi that I ever got. We started with a pedi and she was trying to upsell me to a spa pedi. I said no. She barely filed or took care of the nails and I was done before this other person who was there even before me. I had asked for a 10 minute shoulder massage and at this point kind of regretting asking for it.
Anyway, onto the mani. It was basically the same story. No attention to the nails, super fast, and I got the shortest massage I have ever received at a nail salon. I had cuticles sticking out everywhere and it was just a sloppy job. I debated asking her to fix it or even talking to the owner lady but I decided against it as I didn’t want the eye roll and sigh from Tania when I had said anything to her before.
Now the massage. It was fine though while she was massaging my arm and hands, she scraped a nail and there was a big gash. I wondered if she would fix it on her own but of course not. After the massage she pretended nothing happened so I asked her to repaint it. All throughout the massage she was chewing her bubble gum and blowing bubbles, yawning loudly, and just being unprofessional. This experience alone has led me to look for someplace else. It’s a super reasonable place with consistent quality which I liked but I will save myself the trouble of going to Tania again and go somewhere that is a bit more professional.

Really nice spot! The women were so friendly and professional. Best mani pedi I’ve had in a while. I will definitely be going back.
As others have mentioned, great color selection.
Service was fast and relaxing — never felt rushed.

Manicures are great and the waxing lady has magic hands. :-)

Two words: staying power. My nails legit last for a week without chipping when I get the quick dry (Seche Vite) top coat. They definitely do not put any thinners in any of their polish, and I appreciate that. One star off because my pedicure was mehhh, but the manis are great. I highly recommend coming but please disregard the Kardashian photos on the wall — apparently they have come here also.

I work in the area and it’s by far my favorite nail salon. It’s affordable, unlike some close by, and very clean.
The staff is also really nice and everyone I’ve ever had has always done a really great job! Easy to go in on your lunch for a quick mani/​pedi!

I would give this place 0 stars if I could. O had a horrible experience here. I called ahead of time to ask if they did fillings they said they did. It was twice the price of my normal salon but I was meeting friends in the area, had a few hours to kill and my nails needed doing so I went. The lady doing my nails had no clue what
She was doing and was removing my gel top coat with a regular hand nail file — when you are supposed to file down with the power tool — not sure what it’s called. She clearly spoke English as I saw her with other clients but when I asked her to do something like make the nails thin she said ok but all of the fillings are uneven and very thick apart from one. I asked her to shorten my nails. She cut a tiny bit off and I told her it wasn’t enough. She said don’t worry I will file the rest. She didn’t. All of my nails are different lengths. After putting on the powder filling she filed some of the nails down with a hand nail file again. No power tools. She told me she didn’t know how to use them. I got a French manicure. With gel top coat. All of the lines are different widths I ask her to fix it and she scoffed at me. After drying she put on gel top coat. She smudged one of my nails in the process. I asked her to fix it she complained that I messed it up. I ended up leaving with out giving a tip. She pretended to not speak English when it was convenient and she didn’t want to deal with something then complain to her manager. What’s worse is that an hour after I left all of my nails were ruined. She put the gel top coat on before she should have so there are smudges on all of my nails. They were also all chipped by the next day because the gel coat was not applied properly. For $ 47 with out tip it was a huge waste of money. My regular salon in Brooklyn is about $ 30 and they take their time to do their job correctly and they aren’t rude.

My new hidden gem. Great service, great prices. Clean shop and comfortable recliners. The nail tech took her time and did it right! Nothing more to say

Solid nail salon. Great place for mani and pedi. The place is clean, service is fast, prices cheap, and lots of colors to pick.
Love my $ 10 NYC mani. They charge $ 1 for quick dry.
Bring Cash for tips. There is a $ 15 credit card min charge.
Every time I’ve been here I’ve had a great experience. It’s no frills mani pedi. And lots of times I just want to be in and out and on my way. This is your salon for just that. If you want extra pampering — find a fancy spa.

I’ve been here once for a manicure and likely won’t be back again.
I told the manicurist that I needed to be done within 30 minutes before my next appointment, and she said no problem… but she was constantly distracted during the process of my manicure and going to answer the phone every time it rang (even though there were at least three unoccupied manicurists sitting around, none of them went to answer the phone).
Plus, I felt that my cuticles were cut so aggressively; I have sensitivity and/​or small cuts around my nails from how she was pulling at them. Price-​wise, I’ve had cheaper manis of much better quality elsewhere. The price list says $ 10 but when it came time to pay, it suddenly amounted to $ 11.84 or something random.

Today I got a Mani (Acrylic French Manicure tips) $ 65 and a Euro balm pedi ($ 37) and 20 minute foot massage ($ 23).
Kim did my nails while Mikela did my pedi and massage. Both did a good job. No one rushed. I got in around 11am and got out about 1ish. It gets pretty busy by 12pm.
Alot of people come in around lunch time on Thursdays and Fridays I know for sure.

I really wanted to like this place. It was quiet, a little pricier than I’d like, but clean. The woman doing my nails was thorough and fast. But not twenty minutes after leaving the polish on my thumb is peeling off :(

I took two clients here for manis/​pedis per their request, and I would definitely not agree to come back.
The first problem was with the appointment. I made an appointment for three manis/​pedis at a specific time to make sure we would all be able to sit together, and when we arrived, they had three pedicure stations set up with other people sitting between each of us. Once I expressed my concern, they asked us to wait 10 more minutes and chairs would open up. Not off to a great start!
The biggest problem I had with the place though was their gel manicure. I normally get gel, so I’m very familiar with the process. Clover was by far one of the most painful experiences I’ve had. First, she didn’t let my nails soak long enough and instead just tore at them to get the polish off. Second, once she did get it off, she filed my nails down so much that they became paper thin on two different nails and started to bleed. Sooooo painful! Then, three days after my manicure, two of my nails split right down the middle where she had filed them down to nothing.
Needless to say it was incredibly painful and I will definitely not be coming back. There’s a chance it could have just been the person who attended to me, but I would strongly advise against getting gel here.

Really pleasantly surprised. As someone who gets their nails done pretty frequently if you haven’t noticed :) I am sometimes skeptical of 2^nd floor joints because it’s hard to tell before you actually get up in them whether they are sketchy or not. Luckily for me, this place was not at all sketchy. Bright and airy and really clean which put me automatically at ease.
My nail tech Young was really sweet and incredibly meticulous especially with my cuticles. And I really liked that when my nails were drying they stopped me mid way to spray with some quick dry oil and had me go under the drier again to make sure they were good. They currently look flawless :) 10.50 with a quick dry top coat and flawless nails. Yep, that’s a go! Will definitely be back if I am in the area again!
