Soho Nails

"I went in expecting acrylic, this salon used a dip method, only applying one thin layer of the gel. I knew that they would break right away. Only a day and a half later, most of the polish had chipped off the tips, and one of my nails fell off. $80 later and 9 nails left, I’m disappointed. Also none of the tools the tech used were clean. All of them had other peoples skin and nails on them. Very gross. Hard to locate also."

"The ladies at this nail salon were amazing! I was rushing before a flight and they had two people working on my nails to make sure I finished in time to get to the airport and they still managed to do a fabulous job with my nails. Always coming back!"

"I dont even live in NY, but everytime I´m in the city, SOHO NAILS is my first thing to do in the city. My regular nail polish manicure lasts for at least a week. They always have an appointment, you never have to wait, they work fast and very accurate. I will always go there! My husband likes it too."

"Horrible, I came in for just gel removal and cut shape(my nails needed a break from a year of gel), not only didn’t they remove all of it, but had the audacity to say that was a fake nail underneath so they wouldn’t remove the base(my nails prior were all my own-not a single fake one), then when shaping the lady cut into my skin. I didn’t even get a nail polish and they made me pay a lot more than they advertised, and told me minimum tip is 20% for their bad job. Would advise anyone to stay away,their entitled employees are clearly not qualified to be nail technicians."

"WORST SALON IVE EVER BEEN TO. I never care enough to post reviews but all I could think about through the duration of my manicure was how much I need to express to others this place. For someone who consistently gets manicures every 2-3 weeks I feel as though I can confidently review a place as such. I get dip manicures, and very often get tips on my nails. Every place I have ever gone to has had the same routine for tips. I had 2 broken nails and needed 2 tips. For starters, the woman attempted removing mydip with a nail file while there were perfectly good drills that others were utilizing right next to her. (Pictured) When all else (still not using the drill) failed she proceeded to use a METROCARD (can we talk about how unsanitary?) to remove my dip. (I SHOULDVE LEFT HERE!!! Shame on me) Considering how regularly and long I have been getting dip manicures my nails are fairly weak. I politely asked the girl who was so aggressively filing down on my nails to please be careful as she was about to break the rest of my nails. She somewhat listened. Another woman then came by to attach my 2 tips. On one finger she placed a tip, on the next she placed a piece of gauze in which she start cutting with eyebrow scissors and putting a powder substance on it to "make it look more natural". As you can see in the image the "more natural" nail is quite literally resembling the beak of Donald Duck. Not to mention I was here for 2 HOURS and couldn’t even find the salon initially because you have to trek up 3 floors. In some hidden doorway. I am afraid of the quality and fear this manicure (for $70) will not last more than a week. UPDATE: pictured is my nail falling off after 4 DAYS!!!!!!!! I repeat do not go to this place. Negative stars."
