Lexington Nail By Anh

I’ve had acrylic tips on and off for probably my entire adult life in Australia and London but living in NYC, I have found that they are either a less than par job or just extremely expensive for the initial whole set and ongoing refills every 2 or so weeks.
But recently I really felt like ‘pretty-​ing’ up my hands again like old times. So with an intensive search through Unilocal,I find this salon about 10 min from my apartment a bit further uptown in East Harlem. There was only one review but her review spoke to me as someone who also gets real traditional nail artistry with tips, gel and acrylic.
Let me tell you… WOW. Little, unassuming salon and nothing fancy, but ALEX knows exactly what he’s doing. It was a BEAUTIFUL job — and FAST, I was in and out in an hour including waiting time. Nice regulars, very low key, polite people — but the job this guy did is just really beautiful and it’s my new salon for nails. $ 50 for a full set of pink and white permanent french acrylic tips including the tip. Refills $ 20. Won’t disappoint.
I’m so happy I found this place… and my new NAIL GUY!

the location is not anything fancy to look at and everyone is yelling and laughing some people even eat chicken wings while you wait. But if you ask for RANDY AND/​OR ALEX to do your nails and by nails I mean Acrylic tips, Gel Manicures and all things nail designs… YOU WILL BE THRILLED. If you can deal with the ghetto atmosphere you will walk out with amazing nails.
