Naturally Nails

Nice break from the norm…
Went in for the first time after a friend suggested. Clean, no high pressure sales (I have natural nails and most places try to talk me into acrylic or gel). Run by local women… Tech took her time and fixed any imperfections, prices were great. I highly suggest and will be back!

One of my favorite nail clients from California visited Naturaly Nails and had her gel nails filled and gel polished by Tracey. As a nailtech myself it is always scary when a client has to see someone else when traveling. The usaual is a redo when they come back because the work is not up to my standards. Well that was not the case with Tracey. The beautiful work she did on my client Valerie was such a treat to see, they were as good as I would have done them. Thank you Tracey!!!
Valerie will definitely be back to see you when she is in town!

Absolutely the best!!! I absolutely love my nails!!! My nails are gorgeous!!! They look so natural. The atmosphere is very relaxed and I felt like I had known them for years! This is the place to go for your nails!!!

You have not experienced a manicure unless you have been to Naturally Nails. I have been seeing Jess for a while now and she is beyond incredible. I think the prices are quite fair for what she does and she does her job VERY WELL. I have never gotten so many compliments on my nails! She is so sweet and talented. I feel comfortable going in to get my nails done, whereas at other nail salons, I did not feel this way. Everyone is very sweet and welcoming and the atmosphere is very nice.
I would suggest making your appointment about a month in advance as she books up extremely fast!

i cant say enough amazing things about this place and lauren who does my nails. My gel mani last 3 weeks without a chip or anything. Her amazing nail art keeps me going back along our great conversations. I drive a half hour because i wont go anywhere else.

I usually don’t bother to write reviews but felt compelled to say a few words about Naturally Nails in East Greenwich, RI. A few issues with this salon:
1) Snobbish. This place and its customers are more snooty than most salons and I’ve gotten my nails done on Newbury Street in Boston and in midtown Manhattan. Although they are not rude I got the impression that they feel like they’re doing you a favor by letting you get your nails done there. Like its the best salon for miles. Its not so on to my next issue…
2) They do a so-​so job for the price. The owner teaches courses on how to do gels and supplies product to area salons. However I’ve had UV gel nails for years and the job she did on me was average at best with shrinkage and lifting within a week. And it cost me more than any of the salons in the area or even salons I’ve been to on Newbury Street in Boston. So get over yourselves.
2) Not accommodating to customers. Honestly, the one thing I will say about Asian-​owned salons is they will go out of their way to accommodate their customers and they put in real hours for the sake of their businesses. At this place it is virtually impossible to even get an appointment the day before for the next day. They may not have a policy against walk-​ins but you’ll most surely be waiting for hours on top of getting funny looks from the employees and they’re regular customers like «you must be new here.» How is it possible that this tiny place with four techs in the middle of this tiny town is booked as if they’re on Madison Avenue or Newbury Street? One, because the salon keeps bankers hours — closed Mondays, Tues-​Wed 9 – 5, Thurs. 9 – 8, Fri. 9 – 6 and Sat. 9 – 4. With those hours they clearly intend to cater to the rich housewives in town because everyone else with a job couldn’t possibly make it to their salon during business hours. And closing at 4pm on a Saturday? Really, ladies? Two, half the time only two of the four techs are working at any given time and they are SLOW!!! Again, living in a Stepford Wives dream world where no one has anywhere to be.
Long story short if you can even get an appointment or make it to the salon during their business hours I would say give them a try since they do a wide range of designs utilizing glitter, paint and gels — which is why they get two stars instead of one. But overall they need to step up their customer service and quality of work. I’ll only be going back as a last resort.

For acrylics — which is like their big thing — WAAAAAY overrated.
1. My full set popped off in less than a week. I know this can happen and it’s not necessarily the tech’s fault, but what IS their fault is…
2. COMPLETELY uneven! I looked like an idiot! Like, stop talking and pay attention to how much you’re filing…
3. DIDN’T LISTEN TO WHAT I ASKED FOR. I said short as you can, just above the fingertip. I ended up with DAGGERS.
All this for just 60 bucks! Skip it.

I’m raving about Naturally Nails in East Greenwich, RI because their manicures last twice as long as most nail salons. Even though they are super-​busy, you’ll never feel rushed or processed. The employees talk to customers instead of talking to each other in foreign languages. Oh, and the water for soaking your cuticles is actually warm. If you need a manicure/​pedicure, tell them develup is a raving fan.
