QQ Nails & Spa

"I have had ok experiences here and I often go to the QQ on 75 and Columbus which is great—but this one on 67th and Amsterdam is very inconsistent. Today I got a gel manicure that she clearly was not curing fully between layers. It’s hours later and my nails are lumpy and the polish is soft and movable on my thumbs, something I’ve never had happen with a gel manicure before. Next time I’ll walk the extra 10 blocks to the 75th location. Edit: I am also reflecting further and realizing my manicurist didn’t even use dehydrator on my nails before the base coat and the base coat was very thick."

"I never write reviews (positive nor negative), but I wouldn’t want anyone to go through what I did. Staff is nice so I gave them one star. The issue is that they don’t know how to remove gel polish. They filed my nails down to the skin beneath it causing unbearable pain while doing it and to this day (it’s already been a month). I’ve always had strong and thick nails, now I can’t even open a drawer without damage (and pain) nor grow them. In the pictures, you can see the difference between the pink part (due to the thinness and damage) towards the end of my finger and the white (healthy and thicker part) towards the growth of the nail."

"I honestly never write reviews because I use to work in service and I don’t like to complain but I’m really upset and want to warn others about the sanitary risks of this salon. I went in for a UV gel manicure and specifically requested my cuticles not be cut or shaved but instead be pushed back. After the technician rolled their eyes and another tried to pressure me into cutting them I reiterated I did not feel comfortable doing that given the infection risk and could they please push them back. Despite this they cut my cuticle to the point it caused bleeding. They were still going to continue working on me after this even though that’s a high risk not only to myself but other patrons until I chose to leave on my own accord. Now rather than a manicure I have a bleeding nail and an inability to get my nails done somewhere else until the cut heals. I would not recommend anyone go here."

"I had a really great experience here! I got a waterless gel mani pedi combo from Diana. She was super meticulous and careful, but also efficient. I’m very happy with how both my manicure and pedicure turned out and I’ll definitely return here next time I need my nails done. The staff were all very polite and friendly, and I would recommend this place to anyone!"

"Wanted to get my nails done last second and passed by the salon so gave it a try. Everything was great and the polish job was wonderful, but a couple of the nails are filed crooked. I had asked for rounded square shape but two of my nails are slanted. Overall a cute place but definitely not professional work."
