Broadway Nails

Worst experience ever. Well when I walked in, the shop owner and her mother were arguing and shouting loudly, odd. Then no one asked me or my cousin what we wanted and how long the wait would be until 5 minutes went by and I had to ask myself. Then I was seen… a few more minutes went by and no one paid attention to my cousin who was also waiting to get her nails done… so I had to speak up and ask and the lady who was doing my nails told me to ask to owner. So I kindly asked and she rudely responded «whoever is done first» my cousin waited another 25 minutes to get a fill… so before I sat down to get my full set I showed the nail lady an exact picture of how I wanted my nails shaped and she assured me she could do them… so I was at ease… it was my birthday so I wanted to be satisfied. So midway through the appointment, I notice all of the nails are shaped way too crooked… all different shapes, so I asked her to fix it and she tried but ultimately they still came out jacked up! So she continues and 90% of the nails were done and dry when I looked down and realized it was a terrible paint job and the acrylic was thick and chunky and everything a full set should not be!!! So I got so upset I got up and told the owner I wasn’t paying for that bull crap and I showed her! And she also agreed how crappy it was… so she told me to sit and assured me she’d fix it… so this is the only reason I didn’t give this place 0 stars! The help of the owner VIVIAN! She rescued my
Nails and we had great conversation and she perfected my full set and I left very very happy. So honestly I wouldn’t get my nails done here again only if it was the last resort and Vivian was available.

I’ve recently went in for the first time last week and overall it’s a decent nail salon. I was surprised to see that there were mostly Spanish women working there
Nothing wrong with that at all but I’m so used to the typical Asian ladies working in nail salons. I had to wait a little for my mani but it was at most 10 mins. I’m not sure of the name of the lady that did mine but she was nice and she did a nice job on my nails. I asked for a basic mani and it came out like a typical basic mani should. Also I brought my own nail polish only because I had fallen in love with this new Essie color at the drugstore and had to get it on my nails. I was happy I did because from the quick look that I took at their collection it seemed like they didn’t have a lot to choose from and their colors weren’t one that I was really into. The ploshies also looked older but on their offense they’re a nail salon and must have so many customers and most definitely used those polishes plenty of times. The mani was only $ 10 which I thought was great price. The overall place looks a little run down but again it is in Harlem and it must be hard to maintain a nice small place with high rent most likely. As long as they’re sanitary that’s all that really matters I guess. I think if I need a quick mami/​pedi I would go back here since it’s a couple of blocks from where I live but I’m sticking to my usual place because I love the atmosphere there.

Cheapest quality manicure I’ve gotten since living in New York City. 10 bucks! The girls are efficient and fast. Service was in and out for me since I was getting a mani. Two of the girls were long time customers, like a decade plus relationships with the owner and her daughter. Can’t wait to go back! Pedicure/​manicure combos are 23 dollars on Monday to Wed. 26 bucks Thursday to Sunday. Great price for what they do.

I only came here for a soak off so I can’t say much yet about their nails, but I noticed that they seem very sanitary. They line their pedicure tubs with plastic and they throw out their nail files frequently. While I was soaking off my nails, Vivian told me that whoever did my last fill in went too deep with the drill (I knew that but it was nice to see she was paying attention and care even though I was only paying for a soak off). They also checked on me and reapplied lotion twice while I was soaking my nails.

Gel mani and pedi the woman working on my nails didn’t do a good job. Poor application of the gel and didnt push back my cuticles.

I’ve been coming here for a few months and I love it. Vivian is very friendly. I usually get my nails done with Miriam, she does excellent work!

I have had nothing but good times when I come to get my nails done by Vivian. She is absolutely amazing, everyone is extremely friendly. The ANC nail tech. product has worked wonders for my nails, my natural nails have never been so healthy and long before. I’m lucky enough to live within walking distance to this place, but even so, it’s well worth the trip for an outstanding experience!

The staff is very friendly. I was trying the ANC nails for the first time and Vivian was very informative about the difference between the ANC and the Gel/​Acrylic nails. I would love to give them a five star rating but I don’t like the fact that she didn’t remove my dead skin/​cuticles. However, the customer service skills are so good that I’ll give them a second try and just inform her about my cuticles next time! (Also, my eyebrows were butchered by the ppl across the street and Vivian’s eyebrow lady worked some magic on them, they look like eyebrows again!!!)

This nail salon has always been in my neighborhood and over the summer I finally stopped by. Needless to say I haven’t stopped coming since. Viv and her staff are so warm and friendly. Not to mention how much ANC has helped my nails actually grow. You won’t be disappointed coming here!

I have been searching for a shop that cares about my nails almost as much as I do, Viv told me I should switch from gel polish to ANC and ever since I have not had a nail chip or break and the removal process is healthier than any other process. I have long natural nails so it’s awesome to have a tech that keeps them that way. Miriam is also awesome!

I used to go here when it was called Vivian’s salon. The reason why I stopped going is because they were extremely slow, and they don’t greet their customers at all neither. Also the last time I was there one lady cut my pinky toe nail so short. Left me in pain for 3 days.

I’ve been coming to Vivian for years and this place just keeps getting better. She recently remodeled and the it looks great in here. It is a very clean location and they use liners during your pedicures, which is always a plus.
Most recently she started carrying ANC nail technology which is odorless product that damages nails even less than gel manicures.
The staff is knowledgeable and I wouldn’t entrust my nails to anyone else!

Wow
The worst experience ever
I just wanted to get my pedicure done and relax
The lady had no idea what she was doing She cut my toenails so short I was in pain for days
Charging massage for pedicure char Who does thatNever heard about such a thing
I guess I was expecting a clean salon at least because of the four starts that they have
Nope not hereThe hot towels they were using were extremely dirty yikes
Looking for a new nail salon in the neighborhood
This will definitely not be my choice

Vivian always gives me what I want and makes me get out of my comfort zone. With the salon renovated it’s so much more spacious and bright. Love it!

After being shot down by 3 other places my friend and I decided to give this place our business, or rather this was our last hope
It’s a decent sized place with four pedicure chairs and stations. The employees were polite but not really friendly. The girl who did my nails seemed tired and was kinda rough. 38 for a gel mani and regular pedi is decent though.

Love it! Best nail place in Spanish Harlem! My favorite! Vivian is super cool and extremely updated on the current nail trends that I so love! Pedicures are awesome, for sure a must go!

I went to Broadway Nails after a very disappointing nail experience on Lennox in Harlem. The Unilocal reviews were good for Vivian and I liked the pics others had posted. I arrived after work at about 7. Got a good pedicure and Vivian did a great job on my gel mani. I cannot wait to go back!!! Would have gone today but they are closed. Also you can’t beat the price. $ 40 for my gel mani and pedi.

Well, nail salon is so so… Dirty and not clean at all… Everywhere is dust. I did gel mani, the UV is dirty inside I could feel it with my fingers. While Vivian made me a mani she even didn’t push my cuticles!!! Usually when nail technician have to put your nail to the water to soft lil bitt the nails, I think she doesn’t know about that anything. After she cut and filled my nails she said: go wash your hand!!! Wow… I never heard that kind of service in the salon, I guess she was too lazy to do her job… Such a disappointment. While she was doing my nails she didn’t put the clean napkins under hand… Instead of that my hands was on a dirty table… Ehhhh… Disgusting!!! Never going back that dirty and nasty salon, I better do my nails at home!!!
Only one star is for your good job Vivian on polishing, not perfect but it’s ok, for so gross salon it’s amazing.
P. s. After 5 days my gel mani was ruined, cuz she didn’t push the cuticles, what’s the point to do gel mani for 5 days??? If I could to do the same for less money and less damage for my nails just a regular manicure!!!

I love Vivians the prices are amazing all gel colors and I must say the pedicure is ok point their clean and staff is patient that’s the only shop in Harlem I work on 35^th street but I live in Brooklyn and I refuse to go any where else

I AM IN LOVE!!! Omg where do I begin? I have been to several nail salons in Harlem and I am pretty sure I just found my fav. NOT EVEN PRETTY SURE… I WILL BE SCHEDULING AN APPOINTMENT FOR TWO WEEKS. I was a walk in on a Friday around 11am. They took me with no wait.
I got a DELUXE PEDI which was beyond amazing. The nail technician took her time and was extremely thorough. Dead skin GONE and my feet are so smooth. My fill in was perfect. All my nails were all the same shape and size and once again very thorough work. Before I left they wrapped my feet with saran wrap to prevent me from messing up my toe nail polish which I love. Overall this was a great experience.
