Ny Sassy Nails

I moved to the neighborhood couple days ago and decided to try this place out. The pedi was descent (6 out of 10), the mani was horrible (see the video I posted) Definitely won’t be going back. I’d suggest not wasting your time here.

My mani chipped the same day and completely chipped on most fingers by day 3. The results here were worse than any other salon I have tried. Service was not friendly — I mean not even a fake smile or answer or an attempt of an answer when I asked a question. The salon can use a good scrubbing, cleaning, and dusting. It looks bad — whoever was in charge of «decorating» this place should look for another creative outlet. On a positive note — prices were low, the technician was fast, and there was no wait but I have no plans of going back.

Great for a quick pedicure. However, my acrylic manicure is a mess. The process took over an hour and the nail tech was not precise in applying the powder filling properly to give a naturally shaped nail. instead, I walked out with acrylic all over my skin. Overall I would stick to basic services here.

Very very basic nail salon. Price (weekday $ 22 for mani-​pedi) reflects quality of service and environment. Small cramped space with two workers. I had the male technician. He was rushed and the job was overall sloppy, but not terrible. To his credit, he was at least pleasant. Sadly however, I will have to clean up the job once I’m home — which is a shame. The salon is also filled with flies and bugs; questionable hygienic practices of tools used; re-​usable (not disposable) slippers for every customer; and this is just a personal annoyance, but the place reeks of toxic nail products — I recognize it’s a nail salon, but I have been to other places with comparable prices that didn’t make me feel like I increased my chances of getting cancer upon arrival. There are a lot of places in the area — a lot — I wouldn’t recommend this one. Spend the extra $ 2 to $ 8 and catch a deal at another spot nearby.

Not the nicest of places, but the student mani and pedi for $ 22 you can’t beat. It’s no spa, but it gets the job done — I do wish they gave a longer massage though, that’s the best part! Decent selection of Essie polish, quiet and relaxing, there is AC!!! The ladies don’t talk loudly to each other, the staff is friendly, and they fixed my nails twice when I stupidly hit them against the nail dryer. Their tools seem a little sketch, but that’s what you get for such cheap prices. If my toes don’t grow any diseases, I’ll definitely come back.

One of the worst nail salon experiences I’ve ever had. The young lady who did my pedicure did an unbelievable poor job, it was sloppy and rushed throughout and the end result was far below anything reasonable. I thought perhaps maybe she was a little off mentally because she sneezed on my leg twice without apologizing but then later it dawned on me that this woman likely thought she was better than I. I asked another employee if she could do my manicure because I wasn’t satisfied with the work of the other employee and I was told that I’d have to pay extra for switching. I proceeded to explain that I did not think I should have to do that being that I was not satisfied with the pedicure I received. The salon owner glanced at my feet from 10 feet away and stated that she could see that her employee did do an excellent job. A bit of a back and forth confrontation brewed and i realized these ladies were not willing to let go of a few bucks. Ladies, don’t waste your money here. I would highly discourage anyone from dropping a dime here. I have since chosen to go to a salon in Jackson Heights where the attendants, who happen to all be of Latin descent, are much more hospitable and welcoming and do a much thorough and professional job. This place should be shut down… This owner cares nothing about the satisfaction of her customers and is all about the almighty dollar. I will never return to this place.

Been here twice so far since its so cheap. A mani costs $ 8 – I’m usually satisfied when I leave, but they do a sloppier job than most other places I’ve been to. It doesn’t last too long – about 2 weeks before I had to redo my nails. It can get very loud, but I’ve never had to wait, they have about 5 people working total.
Will continue to come here – can’t beat the price!

You get what you pay for, but for a $ 20 mani/​pedi, I was pretty pleased. They paid a lot of attention to detail and had a good variety of OPI/​Essie nail polish. $ 20 was the student special, also Monday-​Wednesday, and $ 22 the rest of the time. I’ll definitely be going back.

NY Sassy Nails is on the grungy side of nail salons but it seems pretty clean to me regarding the actual nail tools and products. It seems the staff are Chinese and they were friendly enough. There is a man working there also as a manicurist but the last time a man did my nails it was terrible since he was just too gentle and didn’t seem to know what he was doing. When I requested to have a woman do my nails instead, they seemed fine with it.
The woman who did my nails did an adequate manicure. The filing etc was good and the cuticle cutting was particularly good. The massage was not a massage and more like she just put lotion on me. I’m not really bothered about the massage but it might not be very good for those who really like the massage.
I had brought my own OPI nail polish with me after reading that they didn’t have much of a selection and they were fine with using my polish. Actually they did have a decent amount of OPI and Essie nail polishes as well as some other brands I didn’t recognize.
Overall it was a decent manicure for $ 8 but I’ll keep looking around for other places before I come back here.

The place is pretty small but it’s usually packed in here. They take appointments and you have a ten minute grace period. They took me at 7:45pm which was great on a Wednesday. They got right to work with me when I walked in and she did my feet very nicely, she took her time even tho I’m pretty sure she wanted to go home. My feet felt refreshed and unlike many shops their polish is Essie and they don’t charge you extra for Essie (16 bucks for a pedicure). They even do waxing here. I’ve gotten my nails done here before and they usually come out great! The chairs where you sit to do your feet are working massage chairs.

This place has been around for ages. You can tell by the décor it’s really small but has new pedicure chairs and a very limited selection of polish. But they do one hell of a pedicure. The guy was the one who did my feet and he did a spectacular job. My feet were soft for weeks and my nails trimmed and shaped perfectly. He fixed my broken nail during a manicure (which is the reason I went in to cut my nails, broken hearted) and he was able to save it. Job well done. A mani-​pedi is $ 23 can’t beat that!

I don’t know why people like this spot and give them so many stars?! This place is disgusting. The brush that they utilize to spread the oil on your nails is not a one time use only…(imagine all the germs of other people living there). One thing for sure, they don’t clean that (and probably never had). This place is right around the corner from where i live and I always tend to go a little far and expensive for my nails. Manicure here is 8 bucks. Compare to dashing diva 15 bucks (they do a heck of a better job!) the lady didn’t even know how to square off my nails. Basically just straight across and it felt weird because the corners of my nails were sharp and hideous. I had to ask her to reshape my thumbs. :-/​the tools looked old and definitely not disinfected. I’m not going back. What you pay is what you get! Ima keep spending 15 on my manicures. I just wanted to try this spot because it was cheap. Stupid me :-(

Love this place best Mani & Pedis you can find in the upper west side for a reasonable price.
