Thompson St Nails

Great job, patient and pleasant folks. Also great chair massage while drying. Would definitely come back again!

Very carefully done manicure, and the massage was pretty good as well. One star off for the setup. I was bumped a few times during my massage. I will be back !

Decent quality, but not for the price! The pedicure was mediocre, they barely srub your feet!
VERY overpriced for what it is. Girls are nice in a «fake» way, the second you don’t pick the most expensive treatment they start talking about you in Chinese to one another.
Stay away and go to Soho Nails two blocks over, you’ll save $ 15!

I’m really tough on nails but got gel nails that lasted 1.5 weeks — a good deal for me! Walked in and was served right away. Will be going back.

This place does a really good job. The nail artists work hard and are really nice. It was only $ 34 for a mani-​pedi.
I would put more stars if it were better ambiance. Maybe some music and hot tea since it was really cold in there… Or I could play my music on my iPhone and bring my own delicious hot beverage…

I will never go back here again. Please do not even try this nail salon. I waited for an hour for someone to arrive, they do not keep their scheduled appointments and my polish only lasted two days all three times I went there.
The only reason why I gave this place a second and third chance is because it’s next to my apartment, but I will never go back.

Worst manicure I’ve ever received. When I left my nails were bumpy and had a weird texture. I don’t think they know how to properly remove gel, but they also painted on the skin around my nails and did not remove it, and painted them generally unevenly. The employees are sweet and friendly, they just give genuinely terrible manicures.
Despite my bad manicure, overall the environment of the salon is poor. The tools were washed with water and not properly disinfected and I saw my manicurist wash her hands IN THE PEDICURE FOOTBATH at one point. As I dried my nails in the window, there were small bugs crawling all over the counter. I’m taking off this terrible manicure ASAP. Beware – they do not do refunds of any kind. Believe me, I tried.

Located just one block south of Houston Street, close to the ACE metro station, this convenient and easy to find place is simple and fast. Staff were attentive and very patient but worked very fast. They don’t have sample designs so bring your own if you want something creative.

This is now my favorite nail salon because every time I come I fall asleep while having my nails done. That’s a pretty big endorsement as far as I’m concerned. It’s a small simple salon to be sure, but it’s very clean and comfortable, and the technicians are all very nice. $ 38 for a mani/​pedi is more then I like to spend, but I feel like the relaxing atmosphere is worth the few extra bucks. I also love the pillows they have to rest your arms on during your manicure.

Great nail spot! They have the massage chairs, didn’t rush our mani/​pedis and did a very thorough job! It was a great price and relaxing experience! They were also very kind!

Cheap, yes. I came here to get a quick Mani-​pedi but left after 5 mins. I did not get my nails done here so take my review with a grain of salt. I left because everything seemed dirty. I am terrified of contracting a fungus or disease and didn’t want to risk it just because of the cheap price.

The mani pedi was your standard bargain NYC mani pedi. The place was small, the women seemed ok.
My finger nails chipped almost immediately!
I got a weird infection on my pinky toe :(BLARG that has never happened to me and I am pretty adventurous with my bargain mani pedi spots. :(
I looked cute when I left but the aftermath was a royal drag. I won’t go back there again … bummer because they were lovely and nice. It would be a decent spot for a quicky, but I was dismayed by having to deal with first aid when I should be wearing flip flops with pride. :(

Very good service and friendly staff. I had a great 10 minute back massage. I would come back again.

I was in soho today shopping and decided to get my nails done there instead of waiting until I got home to Brooklyn. Big mistake! I went into a few places but they all were charging like $ 120 for gel nails, which is outrageous! I finally found this place which is 70 for French tips, which is what I wanted, still almost twice what I would usually pay, but I’m in a wedding in a few days so I wanted my nails to look extra nice and figured it was worth it. At first it seemed great, a really nice girl filed and cut my nails and dealt with my cuticles, but then she went off to do some womans pedicure (who got there after me!). I was just sitting there for ten minutes before the only man there (who seemed to be the owner) came over and handed me a magazine to read and told me it would be just a minute. Fast forward 30 minutes and this other woman starts on my nails. At first they seem great but then I notice that she has filed one of my nails weird, and when I point it out she tries to tell me that it’s because of the way the base of my nail is shaped and refuses to fix it. Then she files one so it is indented in the side, and also refuses to fix it. She then paints my tips white for the French, but tries to just paint a super thin line on the top, which looks really weird, since the white is supposed to go to the nail bed. I ask her to fix it and have to basically force her to paint my nails the way I want them. They are all pretty uneven and I’m going to have to get them repainted before the wedding. After this she wants me to pay her so I give her the 70 the first girl told me it would cost, and then she tries to tell me it’s 78. at this point I’m really pissed and There is no way I’m going to pay her an extra 8 dollars (which I’m pretty sure she just added on because it was obvious there was no way I was going to tip her) anyways I refused and told her that the other girl told me it was 70, and she tries to insist but as soon as I start talking loudly about how long I had been there and about how she had done a shoddy job she hushed me and took the 70. So I spent 3 hours and 70 dollars to have some lady be incredibly rude to me, refuse to fix the nails that she had messed up and to give me a terrible French manicure. It was especially disappointing because I was have a two year old and today was supposed to be a very relaxing (not to mention rare!) day without the baby. Please do yourself a favor and never ever go here.

clean, friendly, cheap, speedy. i usually never deviate from my w. village 8+ year weekly manicure routine, but I do have a lot of friends in this neighborhood so would go back.
they could really use an update on color selection. don’t see anything from the last 18 months of OPI releases in there.

Had a great $ 36 mani pedi here. Friendly service. Clean. Will go back when I’m next in the area.

I got a French mani/​pedi here a few days before being in a wedding. The pedicure turned out great (despite the fact that when I sat down at the manicure table, the manicurist stepped on my foot and had to redo some of the nails!) but the manicure was a disappointment. The nails were filed and painted unevenly and I ended up just removing the polish and redoing the manicure when I got home. SInce they charge $ 10 extra for French, I expected a lot better.

Great nail salon if you’re looking for…
–great service with a smile
–good prices ($ 35 for mani/​pedi)
–wide selection of colors (top brands)
–attention to detail
I will definitely go back regularly.
