Godwin nail&spa,

83 B Godwin Avenue, Ridgewood, NJ 07450

"I love Godwin Nails and will always give 5 stars, but there are some things that could use improvement. I've mostly been to Amy and Hannah (both fantastic). When booking online, which is the only way to book an appointment since Covid, I would love to see photos of the staff. While I know the other ladies by face, I do not know their names. Another issue comes up when my schedule is tight (usually) and I need a specific time and/or day.. If I want a pedicure, I try Amy first (Hannah doesn't do pedicures). If she's not available I end up going back and forth to try to find someone when I need service who does both manicures and pedicures. Lastly, I find Tom & Jerry incredibly annoying. A better program - or channel - with subtitles would be more entertaining. Thank you!"

"Would love to recommend this place- they have so many good reviews, and they are so organized about appointments, etc., and very on the ball with that. They leave a great impression when you book, and when you walk in, it is very clean and tidy as well as aesthetically pleasing. Hence the 2 stars. However, the actual experience/quality of work is less than stellar, not to mention the cost. I paid $270 -before tip- for a regular gel mani, fill-in, and 2 pedis. Asking for them to do 3 coats of paint, or anything slightly extra elicits a sigh, and for gel fill ins they won't fill your nails in all the way. She made up a reason to not go back and fill them in, as she didn't want to complete the job - noone has ever not completed a fill in. The feel you get is they are rushing through your manicure Not to mention for both my sister and I, the manicure is cracking and or fully cracked off on some nails after 3 days. There is very little effort to make your experience a good one here. When you are shelling out cash like that, expecting a luxury manicure etc., you prepare to receive something special. Unfortunately left the salon feeling very broke and let down. I won't be going back. Please don't spend your money here, and instead go to a place nearby that does more quality work."

"It's my first time to visit this nail shop. I've been taking care of my nails for a long time, so I'm familiar with this culture, and this shop was very comfortable from the visit to the service so that I could be relieved and refreshed. I will visit often in the future, but when I choose gel color, I will choose it in a bright place. Then I can check the color more clearly. I'm going to choose a different designer every time, and I'm going to choose the one that suits me well, and Nicole was in charge of me yesterday. Her work speed was very fast and her massage pressure was really good for me, so I was very satisfied with the strong massage. Shop owner was really kind and explained well about their programs."

"Norma was lovely! She really took her time with me for both the manicure and pedicure and listened to what I wanted. She also did her best to match colors, since gel polish is always slightly different than normal polish. The place was also really spacious & clean!"

"After reading the positive reviews, I decided to give Godwin Nail a try. I made an appointment for a pedicure and a gel tip manicure. I made sure to confirm that this was for the gel tips when I made the appointment. Again, when I showed up at the appointment I confirmed pedicure and gel tip manicure. When the manicurist began to file the nail bed, I asked them to stop because the gel tip manicure doesn't require this. I asked again for the gel manicure...there was much confusion and they directed me to choose a different nail polish. She was about to put polish on my nails when I told her that I was getting the gel. More confusion. They told me the gel manicure was $120.00, but the person who did it (the owner)was on vacation. So they charged me $42.00 for a pedicure and a hand nassage. They refused to reimburse me for the manicure, stating that I received one. Poor customer service. Really frustrating since I had been confirming all along that it was for a Gel Tip manicure."
