Kh Midas Nail

Yes, this place is clean, the prices are affordable (mani: $ 8.50) and Alex looks very proficient at chair massage (might go back to try that).
The manicure I received by Anny was not the greatest. Sanitized tools were not taken out in front of me. No questions asked about nail shape or if I would rather not have my cuticles cut. I was given a look because of an non-​contagious eczema outbreak on my left hand due to Celiac, which I did explain to her. When transitioning to the drying station three dents were polished over, making the color saturation uneven. Air bubbles appeared on the polish once dry.
May get better service from another nail tech or just another salon altogether.

I came in excited to find a new place especially above my favorite donut shop. I had a lavender pedicure and manicure here but it wasn’t up to par. While the pedicure was being performed the woman looked uninterested and during my 10 minute foot massage she was more attentive towards the time on her stop watch. The massage was barely considered anything above quick hand strokes and zero pressure. After spending around 75 $ I left the nail salon still in slippers because I was in a hurry and they wouldn’t provide me with actual sandals. A few hours later when I put my shoes back on I went home to find all the polish had chipped off into my leather platforms. It could have something to do with her only applying one coat during my pedicure and I don’t recall a top coat. The only plus was the back massage done by wonderful Alex. Amazing hands

Had a little bit of time to kill the other night so decided to stop in on a whim.
Paid $ 56 + tip for mani/​pedi and 20 minute massage.
Mani/​pedi was subpar at best. Started chipping after two days. Not sure if they water down their polish or if the manicurist neglected to put topcoat on, but this manicure did NOT last.
The massage was great and they let me split the 20 minutes — 10 on feet and 10 on back.
The employees were very nice, friendly, talkative (to one another mostly) and more than willing to help me get out of there in a timely manner.
One annoying issue (besides the quality) is that one person did my nails, another gave me the massage, and both expected tips (as they should). So, $ 56 quickly turned into close to $ 70.
Whatever the case, not a huge fan. Will go back to my regular spot.

I’ve been getting mani-​pedis since I was 4. So for me a mani-​pedi is basic hygienic upkeep, and spending $ 30+ a week on basic upkeep is ridiculous. Midas is in a perfect spot for professionals in the Chelsea area wanting a basic mani-​pedi. I came in on my lunch break and was seated immediately and given a basic pedi and mani all within my 1hr break. very happy

Came here on a Friday evening cause the first place I went was too packed. Was happy to see no line and took my chances at a 21 dollar mani/​pedi. The people were nice enough and my pedi came out pretty good although the second the top coat was on I was rushed outta my chair so someone else could get in it. My manicure though… The lady was really nice so I wish I could give her a good review but the nail polish is all over my fingers and there are ginormous bubbles. Plus when they took me to the drying station they didn’t even properly out it on and nor did I get the shoulder/​neck massage the other customers got… And they got the same exact mani/​pedi as me. I’d come here again if I was in a big hurry for a pedicure … Otherwise probably won’t be back.

I went in for a manicure and pedicure & left with only a pedicure. The woman who did my nails was rough (not ideal when you’re hoping for a relaxing treat) and her gestures really gave me the impression that she didn’t want to be there. She was also sloppy with her work as there was nail polish on the top of my feet which she didn’t even notice. After the kind of job she’d done and experiencing her nonchalant attitude, I didn’t want to stay for the manicure. It’s a cleanly place and the prices aren’t bad but that’s not enough to get me to go back.

I remember going to this salon a couple of years ago for the 10 mins. chair back massage when a guy worked there who would give great massages on my aching back. Well, I stopped by after work yesterday (about 6:15pm) and was surprised to see that there were only 3 people working and there were only 2 customers there at that time. I asked the lady who was sitting closest to the door if she did «gel powder fillings»? She seemed confused and I showed her my nails and she said that she did. I asked her how long the wait was? She told me «a ½ hour». Because there wasn’t anyone else waiting, I decided to stay and wait. After waiting for 40 – 45 minutes, one of the women told me to sit on the pedicure chair. The pedicure was OK (nothing to brag about). Then, the same women asked me to sit on the 3^rd manicure chair (she had to tell me twice because I didn’t understand her the first time). I asked her to cut my nails shorter. She did with a toe nail clipper (???) and cracked the gel wrap on almost all of my nails! WTH?! Then, when she did the filing, she filed 2 of my nails un-​even. It was obvious that they were slanted! I mentioned it to her and she got offended and replied, «I’m not finished». Huh?! When she was done with the gel filling, I had to point out where she didn’t fix the cracks with more gel. Needless to say, I won’t be going here again! The only thing that I liked about this salon was that they had a nice selection of OPI and Essie polish colors.

My niece came here to get a gel mani by the time she got home her gel started lifting and coming off. NOT GOOD! I took her back the next day to get them redone, right when the nail tech started taking the rest off they came off so easily. When usually your sitting there with foils on you fingers for a good minute to take the gel off. Sorry to say but they do a very poor job and don’t take their time. Would not recommended to come here, not very catering or welcoming.

I use to come here all the time when it use to be the only cheap nail salon in the area. But over the years more nail salons opened up with a great price for a mani and pedi ($ 20). As I passed all the nail salons in the area they were jammed pack because it was Friday. So I knew Midas nail salon probably had some availability and they did. To my surprise there were only 2 ladies working.
One of the ladies told me to sit in the chair and she’ll be right over. I wasn’t in a rush so I decided to wait. After 15 minutes she finally came over to turn on the water so I may soak my feet and then she went on to finish her client’s nails. Another customer came in wanting to fix a single nail and the employee told her to wait as well. And to my surprise after waiting another 10 minutes, the employee who told me to wait went ahead and took the customer who came to fix her single nail.
I usually like to put a fight and argue. But it was pointless. I got out of the chair and to the bathroom to dry my feet. Yes I wet the floors but I didn’t care. And as I was about to leave she notice that I was walking out she says, «No I’m almost finish». I kept walking. If I could give it no stars I would. The only good thing that came out of this was a free massage from the massage chair and had my feet soak in hot bubbly water.
Bottom line… don’t waste your time like they wasted mine.

Horrible place! The flashing lights should have been a warning! I did the eyebrow thread and a mani pedi, both were terrible! The threading completely botched my brows– uneven, gauges taken out of the skin, as well as a HUGE hole on the SMALLER brow so I can’t even fix it.
The mani was just as bad– the technician took a massive chunk out of my cuticle, then proceeded to take another chunk out to remove the flap of skin. Blood all over my finger, misted it with alcohol (do they know that hurts like hell???) then a couple minutes later attacked the area again with nail polish remover (OW!!!). Never apologized or looked fazed at all.
The only redeeming part of the visit was when the owner gave me a 3 minute back massage.
Seriously, stay away.

Come here for their inexpensive deal– Monday through wed (all day I believe) — a Mani/​pedi for only 20 dollars.
This place is great because they really take their time and give you like a full leg and arm massage whilst they are doing your nails.
only thing is the place is not the cleaniest or most «spa like» but nonetheless it still does the job.

I’m giving another star because my manicure did last about 6 days after I cleaned it up.

Do not get your nails done here if you’re a perfectionist. The woman did not clean underneath my nails properly after I asked her to do it three times. There’s nail polish over my cuticle line, even though I asked her to clean the sides up a bit. I also got a painful, unfocused massage around my lower back even though I told her to focus on my shoulders and neck. And she kept digging her nail into my skin. Horrible job all around.

Good cheap nail salon! They are meticulous and do a good job and its only $ 20 for a manipedi.

I really wanted to like this place because $ 20 mani-​pedi! Right next to the ½/​3 train! But they are meticulous to a fault. My mani/​pedi took over an hour.
First, don’t make the same mistake I made and bother the poor tenants of 2 °F in 203. Yes, that is their address, but Midas’ door is to the *right* of the Donut Pub as you’re facing it. Their $ 20 mani-​pedi doesn’t have any day restrictions, as I walked in on a Saturday. The pedi — nothing special to report here. It’s about what you’d expect in a $ 20 mani-​pedi, and she didn’t try to upsell me anything at all. The chairs are a bit older than other establishments.
Mani — oh my ford this took forever. I asked her half an hour into the whole ordeal how much longer it would take and she offered a «10 minutes? 5 okay?» and I agreed because I was in a hurry. TWENTY FIVE minutes later, she applies the last coat of polish and tries to take me to the drying station. No, lady, I need to go! When I asked her 10 minutes after the check in the way whether she could go a little faster, she expressed a faint surprise of remembrance and… proceeded to go just as slow. I can’t fault her application of the polish, but her cuticle tool wasn’t as sharp as it should have been and kind of yanked a few times. And of course, because I had to run, I smudged up two of the nails. This isn’t exactly her fault, but definitely do not come here when you’re in a hurry!
Can’t fault the price but there were a couple flies buzzing around… I guess they come in to escape the heat and never get killed?

An amazing value, and like everyone else said, they are meticulous and don’t seem to be in a hurry. They did a great job with my pedicure.
I would not recommend any kind of acrylics here. They file completely by hand (no nail drill), which impressed me and I had never seen before, but I was much less impressed when my new set lifted in a week.
If I hadn’t chewed my nails off from stress beforehand, I would have gotten their mani, pedi, 10 min massage special for $ 30. I don’t think you could beat that anywhere.
I wouldn’t go here if you are in a hurry, or if you are expecting a high end spa atmosphere (while I was here they were playing children’s cartoons on the TV, then golf) but I would come back.

SUPER CHEAP! only $ 20 for a manicure & pedi! (might as well do both since a pedicure is $ 18 alone!)
I like this place because they don’t try to take advantage of your money! I asked for the $ 5 callous removal & after examining my feet she said I didn’t need the full callous removal & only charged $ 1 for razoring! (even though she said it’d be $ 2)
PLUS my mani & pedi lasted a good amount of time! No chipping til my nails really grew out
ONE GRIPE: the salon is kind of a shabby place with weird cartoons playing on the TV… Not exactly the type of place you want to be pampered in
NOTE: it’s hard to find! They don’t have a storefront but you must go up the stairs to the 2^nd floor
STAMP CARD: 10 visits gets you a free manicure

I was working in NY during the summer and looked for a nice, cheap place to keep my hands and feet looking good. Unilocal was the reason why I went there and I wasn’t disappointed. For a 20 $ mani-​pedi it is probably as good as it gets. The place looked clean, it’s bright in there and the included leg, arm and neck massage is awesome! The manicure wasn’t always perfect, but I can live with that. The quality (and duration) of the massage also depends on who you get. So if you are disappointed the first time, give it another try!

Don’t waste your time… I was very disappointed. The pedicure was wack the whole bottom of my foot is WHITE with ash yes I said it ashy feet. My leg is itching from the stuff in the water.
The girl I went to let my feet soak for about a minute, then used some wack scrubber to scrub my feet. I was like ummmmmm is that it, then I took my nail the scraped the bottom of my foot and had to show her the dead skin she was missing. Yes I did she was like OHHHHHH, but got back to scrubbing. After I got the tip for the other lady (no one told them both to do my stuff nails) I looked at her straight calm and cool and said don’t eva tell me what to do with my tip or money.
I remained polite but I am extremely unhappy, and wouldn’t even think of going back. I noticed no sanitation and she tried to keep my OPI… ummmm don’t think so! The dryers SUCK too my nails didn’t even dry. I

I love this place. It’s no Red Door Spa but for $ 20 it’s the most meticulous mani pedi I’ve had. Even at the more expensive places.
Open till 8pm on weekdays. 730pm on weekends.
