Time For Nails

I tried this place a few times just to be sure with different technicians. It was awful each time. The last time I went the older technician put so many coats of polish on my nails and pulled me out of the heat too soon that the gel peeled off later that night. I’d go somewhere else unless you’re extremely desperate.

I’ve gotten a lot of pedicures growing up. I’m talking twice a month April to October for 8 years. The salon is pretty standard, in a strip mall. Clean. I walked in and was the only one. I got seated immediately. All the staff were on their phones or tablets, that was amusing. One was asleep in a massage chair.
This pedicure was pretty standard. The green scrub was… interesting. I’m not sure what the point was actually. They did lotion and massage and the hot towel. All pretty standard.
My one complaint is that the water my feet were in and out of was luke warm, almost cold.

I have been to Time for Nails every two weeks for the past year. Absolutely the best acrylics I have ever had on. I love all of the girls and I’ll never go anywhere else! They are also super accommodating with design because I always find crazy stuff on Pinterest or Instagram and they do whatever I ask for

Nail stylist Lee did my nails today and she did a beautiful job and recreated what I wanted, she is very talented and friendly

This salon did an excellent job on my pedicure. The staff are friendly and polite; they are gentle and take the time to understand what their clients want and do not want. I will definitely be coming back again!

I just left Time for Nails. When I walked in, I was the only customer in the salon. I asked if I could get a gel manicure, and they were accomodating. The woman who took me asked me if I was on my lunch break, and I said yes. She took AN HOUR AND A HALF to do a french gel (no tips or refills) manicure. After all that time, I feel like I should have been impressed with the quality, but unfortunately, that is not the case. Needless to say, me, nor my money will be back.

Worst mani/​pedi I’ve ever gotten. I came to Time For Nails because they are one of the few salons in the area who are open on Sunday. There was no wait, the salon is clean, and there is a good selection of nail polishes. Prices are also reasonable — got mani/​pedi for $ 35.
HOWEVER, the nail artist ran the foot file against my ankle bone, causing it to bleed slightly. A day and a half later it still stings. After painting my toe nails she used a brush to run acetone around the edge of each nail, eliminating the nice clean edge and creating a blurry, messy look. My right thumb has a very rough, jagged edge and some paint is already starting to peel (not chip, peel).
I definitely won’t be going back.

Unilocal. You actually let me down for once. So my checklist to get a pedicure, you need to be Asian. Let’s be only honest, they are the only ones that get it right. However, the pedicure wasn’t anything special. The lady actually ended up scraping and cutting the back of my foot. All and all, they are the nicest people– but the quality isn’t there. My friend had to completely take off her nail color when sh got home– because it wasn’t properly done.

Unfortunately in my first experience with this nail salon, I have been completely turned off to them. I was somewhat on a time crunch because I had a babysitter for a limited amount of time. I called 15 minutes prior to my arrival to check to see if there was any wait. I explained that due to my time crunch with the babysitter, I did not have any time to wait and needed to get in immediately. The gal on the phone was adamant and assured me that there was no wait. She took my name and information and put me in as a reservation. When I arrived, there were four ladies waiting to get their nails done. They all went in ahead of me, and they had me wait for 10 minutes before I finally got seated in a chair. Then, they had me wait another 15 minutes in the chair soaking my feet. I asked two times how much longer it would be, and they kept saying «one more minute, one more minute.» Fast forward another 10 minutes, I asked for towel to dry my feet and I left. I never got my pedicure, and had to go back to relieve the babysitter. I do not appreciate a business who lies to their patrons in order to make money. Especially, when they are so insistent that there will be no wait. Absolutely shameful.

I’m new to the area and was looking for a place to get a basic pedicure. After reading a lot of Unilocal reviews, I decided to check this place out. I went in on a Friday night and was seated right away.
The place itself is a pretty average nail salon in a small strip mall-​style building (additional parking behind the building as well). But it was clean and the people were friendly. The pedi itself was great.
I have to say that I was pretty nervous when I didn’t see prices listed anywhere in the salon. I’m used to paying about $ 25 for a pedicure where I’m from and was worried it was going to be a lot more expensive. Turns out it was still only $ 25, but I would have liked to have been able to see prices.
Tip: If you go here, make sure you have some cash on hand. I’m one of those people who puts everything on my card, which was fine for the pedicure itself, but tip is cash only. I was embarrassed when I could only find $ 2 in my purse. Will definitely make sure to tip better next time!

I got a great pedicure for a fair price. I was really impressed with how good my feet looked and how long my polish lasted. Would recommend.

This is a really well run nail salon. Renee is wonderful and does such a great job. She is consistent and she doesn’t rush. I go out of my way to have my nails done here. I definitely recommend them for anyone who wants pink and white gels!

I’m not sure what everyone is going on about this place for. Typically I go to a place near my house, but I thought I’d give someone else a shot to see if it was any better. Checked the Unilocal reviews and saw this place. I headed over … Arrived about 20 – 30 minutes after they had opened. I was able to sit down right away… But man, I was there was a LONG time! Too long!
I noticed a number of people mentioned how friendly the staff was … The girl who did my nails and I sat in silence for almost two hours! I didn’t notice anyone being overly friendly. Also, a lot of people mentioned how nice the place was. And how ample the parking. This looks like every other nail salon … Nothing special. Neither was the parking. I mean there was parking, but it wasn’t plentiful.
I received a pedicure and a french gel manicure … Toenails cut down too short, they look almost silly! And with the mani. after she did the white part, it bubbled up under the UV light. We both noticed it … But she assured me when she put the top coat on it would smooth out. False! I mean my nails look good. But if you get up close you can count the many flaws of the paint job.
I won’t be back… As the whole experience was just Meh. And the place down the street is just a few notches better.
The pros: They gave me (and everyone) a 10% discount … As September is «mystery discount» month. You choose a slip with a % off out of a bowl. Also, the color selection was pretty decent.

I went in to Time For Nails for the first time today after reading reviews on Unilocal.I have to say — I agree with all of the 5 star reviews I read. The prices and services offered were the same as your run of the mill nail salon, but the way they differentiate themselves is with amazing service, friendly attitudes, and professional attire and customer service.
I got both a pedicure and a french shellac manicure and my nail tech did a fantastic job. I am very picky about my manicures, and she left my nails looking neat and clean with non bumps, lumps, or thick white lines! Throughout the service they constantly check in with you to see that you are satisfied.
And as an added bonus, since it was my first time visiting the salon, I got a 10% discount! Parking is easy, and there is a stop light right next to the shopping center for easy access.
Being new to the area I expected to have to sift through several nail salons before finding the one I’d rest on. But after finding this, the first salon I tried, I’ve met my match!

OH MY WORD. I’ve found my holy grail of nail salons (though I’m thoroughly embarrassed to have written those words). What makes up my holy grail?
1. must do good gel manicures
2. must do nice job on cuticles without causing significant blood loss or pain
3. parking is ideal
4. must not be appointment only
5. must not be filthy
It doesn’t sound like much, but finding someone who can do a good gel manicure is harder than you’d think. You need someone who takes their time, doesn’t get gel all over your skin, doesn’t paint polish on your skin or too close to your cuticles (you know that annoying 7 day in lift? yeah, that’s why that happens), files your nails evenly, doesn’t make swirls with the gel — I could keep going on and on.
Adam at Time For Nails is my guy. Though my Opi Axxiom manicure took a bit longer than I was used to (better part of an hour), I’m almost 2 weeks in and only one tiny chip (and I am ridiculously hard on my hands and nails). The salon was pretty and bright, every tool/​instrument used was in sterile autoclave pouches (not just the blue solution you find at most salons). Adam was super pleasant, I had plenty of room at his station, and he did a really great job. I think it was $ 25, not including tip — which is pretty normal.
My only complaint is that it’s lasted so long that I’m bored with the color and want new nails now!

was sent an email thru Unilocal by owner of the salon for free manicure and pedicure– which was a very generous offer. Went in to see Rene last yesterday got a nice manicure.

It’s always a pain searching for nail salons outside my city, but I’m glad I found this place!
We hopped into a few other salons in the area and walked right out — they were small and dingy — and more expensive.
This place is spacious and very clean. They use new tools, straight out of a vacuum-​sealed package — for each pedicure, which really put my future sis-​in-​law at ease about getting her feet done.
The staff was super nice and accommodating. We walked in without an appointment so there was about an hour wait, but we were able to put our names down and head down the road to grab lunch in the meantime. When we arrived back an hour later, we were promptly seated for our pedis. It’s always appreciated when a place knows its timing so they don’t waste the customer’s time waiting.
They did a great pedi and fab gel mani. I normally get French on both nails and toes but decided to go for a color. They were super helpful — I chose a bright orange/​red in the gel for my nails and they picked out a matching (regular) toe nail polish for me to use since I don’t get gel on my toes.
Great service, clean, friendly, and reasonably priced (I think I paid about $ 60, including tip, for a gel mani and regular pedi — which is about what I pay in NYC). Next time I’m visiting my bro in Conshie and I need my nails done, I’m definitely headed here!

Found this place on Unilocal :-) Glad I did. It was an enjoyable first time experience. I would definitely return there and recommend it for folks looking for a nice nail salon in the Norristown/​Plymouth Meeting area

Last night me and 3 friends visited the salon for the first time. When we arrived they had everything ready for us for our mani’s & pedi’s. We had such a nice time and the nail techs were so friendly! Prices were very reasonable and I will definitely go back! I highly recommend!

I had a great experience at Time for Nails. Everyone is extremely friendly and they did a great job on my manicure and pedicure. I can’t wait to go back!
