My Nails & Spa

I got a great pedicure there. Looks a little sketchy on the outside but warm, welcoming and pretty on the inside.

Was very happy with the service here. Bill is awesome! He took his time, and the environment is very clean. It’s a little on the pricey side, but it’s definitely one of the best salons that I have been to.

I came to this salon because I was given a gift certificate. I was pleasantly surprised. Bill and Jen are always so nice. I look forward to having my regular nail appointment as it is always a fantastic place to relax for an hour during my crazy busy work week. Their hours are great and their prices are too. I recommend them 100%!

They are appointment only now, which is a bit inconvenient. But, we were seen quickly and the service was friendly. My friend and I got a pedicure and manicure for the regular combo price of $ 38. The pedicure was the usual filing and pumice use, but no massage of any kind or lotion. It was fairly basic, but the nail shaping was great and they were willing to do the edges on a problem nail. This isn’t something many places will do, so I was happy. The manicure was only ok. My polish isn’t perfect, but the nail shape is nice. Overall, pretty good. I would come back.

I come here on my lunch break and every time I am welcomed by my first name! Bill and jen are awesome! I would recommend this place to everyone! Nice and clean. …love it!

My friend recommend this place she said the price was amazing. I don’t typically get my nails done but I decided to get an acrylic set. I was a walk in not realizing that you should make an appointment. They were so nice and accommodating! I love my nails the price is perfect and I will continue to go back!

Great job! I love my manicure! It was a little timely because my girl was still training (Menuka) but well worth the time it took. I was picky about my design and they accommodated to my requests. Very reasonably priced as well!

This is the best nail place I have tried in west hartford. They do such a great job, large nail polish selection and great customer service. Highly recommend.

I was in today for a manicure and pedicure. I last had a service nine months ago– and today’s experience has made me want to come in more frequently.
Bill did my pedicure, which was excellent. It was really relaxing, and some time in the massage chair was just what I needed. They have a great selection of colors– my toes look great and my skin is so smooth now.
Menuka did my manicure and she did a wonderful job. The keratin glove treatment was really nice. My nails are now evenly shaped, and the polish job is smooth and firm. The UV drier performed better than others I have used, and I didn’t have to worry about smudges.
I will definitely be back to fill up this punch card!

I have mixed feelings about having to write this review but here goes.
As with many things your experience depends on who you get.
I came in with my mom for a mani pedi. We did not have an appointment and there weren’t many people waiting. The place looked clean, was well ventilated and had the usual set up with massage chairs, mani stations etc. We spoke to a Bill who told us someone with an appointment was coming so he would do us one at a time. So far so good.
Bill started each of our pedicures. Then he let Menuka take over for the painting after stating that she was new. I sat for about 15 minutes waiting for her to finish my mom before she started painting me. New (and slow) she was indeed. We got here at 3:30 and it is currently 4:45. Menuka is still painting my toenails. Mom just finished her mani. I haven’t even had my manicure done yet and I’m sure I won’t get it done today. In the time that Menuka was only painting my toenails, my mom had a complete manicure done by Bill and he did a fill on another client. Enough said.
I drove out of my way to come here based on Unilocal reviews and the price ($ 32 for mani pedi) and I hate to say I was so disappointed. Bill was an absolute sweetheart and he did apologize for the amount of time it took but I probably won’t come here again if I’m not already in the area. If I did I would make an advance appointment and ask to have my service done by Bill or come on a day when I have extra patience to spare for the new gal.
The one other upside was that the nail paint dried extremely fast with their UV drier, less than 5 minutes.
P. s. There is no access to the parking lot from New Britain Ave. You have to either come down New Park Ave or park across the street.

I was quite skeptical when I first walked in, however they do a fantastic job and were very accommodating when I wanted a touch up. My French gel manicure lasted for 6 weeks! That’s quality which is hard to find in west Hartford!

Bill is a nice guy and very accommodating. I needed my nails done for a wedding on a Saturday and I waited until Friday night to do them. He told me he had a cancelation and I could come in. However, I still waited over an hour to see him. I didn’t want anything special — just a basic manicure. I play guitar and my nails tend to be short anyway, but I did grow them out for the occasion. While we were talking, I completely forgot about the fact that I wanted French nails, but it was ok. He had already cut them. When it was time to go to the drying station, I suppose I accidentally touched it with my right middle finger. I thought for sure he would re-​do that fingernail but he did not. He just put more polish over it. I went back to the drying station and was not the happiest person in the world. But I was hoping maybe because I was a first timer and I waited so long and he did a bad cover up on that nail and it was nearly 10pm, he’d give me a deal. No go! I paid regular price, tossed him a few bucks for a tip and went to a friend’s house. When they saw the nail, they were all like, WTF? I know… but I was tired and it had already been a very long day. I’d be willing to try this place again. Perhaps the moon and the stars just didn’t align that night. (They couldn’t have — I was knifed on that finger about 1.5 hrs later! Ended up in the hospital!)

I am horrible at taking care of my nails, but on occasion I splurge on a pedicure. I found My Nails on Unilocal and decided to try it based on the reviews. I’ve been twice now and will definitely keep coming back. It is clean, features a large selection of colors, and is reasonably priced. The true asset of My Nails is its technicians. Unlike some of the larger salons in the area, I feel like I get personalized attention and am not being rushed out of the building. Bill is absolutely wonderful and will make sure you are happy with your nails. I came in today with a broken nail, which he fixed at no charge. You’d never know that my feet were such a wreck because my pedicure looks gorgeous! I highly recommend My Nails– just make sure to call ahead to see if they have appointments since they are in a smaller space.

Bill and Jen are very passionate about what they do. Very kind and take their time to make sure your nails come out great !

This place never fails to impress me. The owner Bill is so nice, he even moved his car for me so I could have a spot when the lot was full from the restaurant next door. Their prices are very reasonable, better than many places I’ve seen. They’re also open on Sunday’s and that’s hard to come by. I will definitely continue to come back here!

Ive been coming here for probably over a year now and my nails always come out spectacular. Bill and Jen are very patient with me as sometimes I am pretty indecisive in my decision making (what color, what design) yet they always do a wonderful job. The designs (2D and 3D) are amazing. And the price is right. I get acrylic fills probably every 3 – 4 weeks and pedicures during the good weather.

First time here after trying to find a place open on Sunday. What a great surprise! Jen is the sweetest woman I’ve ever met. She was gentle and listened to exactly what I wanted. I’ve never been happier with my nails! I will definitely be coming back in 2 weeks. I’ve found a new favorite place for sure and don’t mind driving over 20miles to get here. Well worth it. You definitely won’t be disappointed. I came in with pictures and ideas from Pinterest, and Jen was able to replicate it exactly. Thank you Jen!

This was my first time here. They have friendly service. I got a gel manicure in Tiffany blue. I wish the color would have been smoother, without ridges. Upside was that they are open on Sundays without a long wait.

I have been to several nail salons in the Hartford/​West Hartford area (Thulan, Pink/​Cindy, LA, Nails by the Corner, Pro-​nails). BY FAR THIS IS THE WORST NAIL PLACE OF THEM ALL!!! It was SOOO BAD I felt obligated to sign up for Unilocal and write this to caution others.
1. Attached is the photo right out the shop. Notice the messy edges along cuticle. When I asked if this could be done neater, I was given absurd reasoning: «we need to leave space of ¹⁄₈ inch between gel polish and cuticle». Yet at the tops of my nail the polish went over onto my skin. When I mentioned that gap in his logic (leaving uneven gaps on sides but over skin on top) he said «it would be hard to take off because of my dark skin». Seriously?!
2. My daughter was told polish on her hands and feet would be $ 5 each but when paying it was changed to $ 5 for hands and $ 8 for feet. She was proud to be using her own saved up money and was surprised and upset by the changed price.
3. We went early on a Saturday morning and no one else was there. It wasn’t as if they were busy and had to rush. There was no excuse to deliver such horrible service.
4. Only pros was that they had large selection of mood change gel polish and cost was only $ 50 ($ 25 for gel manicure and $ 25 for pedicure).
However, it was not worth $ 10 saved for subpar service and poor customer treatment.

I live in Boston, but am originally from CT. So this weekend when I came home for a visit, I was looking for a reasonably priced pedicure and fill. I am thrilled to say I found My Nails. Jen and Bill are great and very friendly. I came Saturday expecting to get both a fill and pedi, but ran out of time so was just able to get my nails filled. Jen did an amazing job and they look amazing!
I came back on Sunday for my pedicure and was welcomed right in no appointment necessary (that is what is great about undiscovered gems, I almost don’t want to write this review and have everyone find this place but they are to amazing to hide). The pedi is 20 $ and that includes callus removal, hot stone massage and leg massage.
Just a great little place! I will be back to get my nails done for my brothers wedding in a few weeks!!!
