Posh Nails

For the second time I have come here with a friend and for the second time they were more than 15 minutes late taking us then we proceeded to wait for a nail tech and even then one of us waited as the other person was getting their nails started. For this reason I will not be returning. If you go with another person just make sure you are being done at the same time if that’s what you want.

This place was really nice when it opened. Now this place has really taken a beating. Messy and not as clean as it use to be. Pedicure was $ 45.00 and not worth the money. Cut my cuticle and it was bleeding. Expected a «sorry» at least. I will not be going back. I use to recommend this place but not any longer.

Got a gift card for Christmas would not go back did not cut my cuticles on my toes or hands and guy I had was in a rush to go back to drinking his coffee very disappointed

Posh has been my go-​to nail salon for the last 2 years, but I won’t be going back, and here’s why:
I called ahead and scheduled a regular pedicure and gel manicure for 1:30 pm. I arrived on time, and my pedicure started on time. When my pedicure was over, I was brought to a manicure table and told that my technician would be with me shortly. Ten minutes went by, and she arrived. She filed one nail, then answered the phone and scheduled an appointment. Went back to file a second nail, answered the phone again. Almost got back to me when she greeted and booked and the next group of customers who walked in. At this point, another ten minutes had gone by, and I was getting frustrated. On the third nail, she said «oops, sorry» and when I looked, there was blood covering my index finger. I quickly realized it was her blood, not mine. She got up and walked away, and I could only presume she was going to wash her hands and bring me something to wash her blood from mine. She returned a minute later, and by this point I was thoroughly disgusted. She had bandaged her finger, and tried to re-​start my manicure. I had to stop her and ASK HER to please give me some alcohol to clean her blood. I washed my hands, she gave me some alcohol, but then picked up the blood covered nail buffer (again, her blood) to re-​start my manicure. I had to stop her AGAIN and ASK HER to please get a new tool. She threw the nail buffer in the trash and then told me someone else would be with me to do my manicure in about ten minutes. By this point, I was done, and said I would come back another time. She told me to wait, and then found someone to fill in for her. She then sat at the table next to me, and began another customer’s manicure (why she couldn’t complete mine, I do not know). It was such an unpleasant experience and I will gladly pay an extra $ 15 to go to MiniLuxe in the future if it means not having to wait over 30 minutes for a scheduled appointment, and more importantly, NOT HAVING SOMEONE BLEED ON ME AND TRY TO COMPLETE A MANICURE WITH BLOOD COVERED TOOLS!
The End.

I went here the first time last month and had a great mani and pedi. The location is great, good music and clean and friendly staff. However, today I went for a gel mani and it took 8 minutes from start to finish. My friend next to me was getting a regular mani and I was done before her top coat even got on. I asked the woman twice why so rushed but no response. At first I thought it was because I didn’t make an appointment and went in at 11:57 on a Sunday and and maybe she had a noon appointment. But after she rang my credit card she sat at another desk and played on her phone. I said something to the man in charge about this being the fastest gel manicure ever and he explained she had 10 years experience and would I want another shoulder massage. I said no. I have realized that mani and pedis totally depend on the person and not the place. But not even in NYC or downtown Boston have I ever had an 8 minute gel manicure. Will not be surprised if the paint chips in a few days.
She never even set the timers on the light machines! So disappointing. Defeats the purpose of a relaxing experience. Not ‘posh’ at all. I have never written a review on Unilocal before but encourage those going here to check the clock!

I LOVED IT HERE!!! It was seriously the bet manicure I’ve had in a long time.
I got the gel manicure and its thin but sturdy. The technician was simply amazing, a really sweet girl named Katie.
After my manicure I thought we were done — nope. They took me over to the sink where they scrubbed my hands down with an Epsom salt/​essential oil blend and then dunked my hands in paraffin wax. As I was waiting for the wax to set, I was given a shoulder massage.
And it was only $ 30?!?
I could walk here and plan to once the baby is born. It’ll be a nice treat on the mornings hubby takes over! What an amazing little spot. Totally coming here again.
(And I heard rumor of hot stone pedis?!?)

Great service! Wonderful selection of colors, both gel and regular. A bit expensive but the quality and service speaks for itself.

Made an appointment for 11:15. Came in and they told us to wait but didn’t show us where to wait we stood around awkward. Until we figured out where to go. Got a lot of attitude and unwelcome feeling while here. Not too impressed. Just now at 9pm I looked down and noticed my polish was chipped! That has NEVER happened to me at any salon I have been too! I have never been so disappointed in service from a nail salon in my life!

I explained how Gel Nails have ruined my fingernails so «Sonny» suggested I get UV gels for$ 45.00 because they last 3 weeks and you do not see them grow out. I was charged $ 70.00 and she only did 9 nails! She insisted that was the price for a French which I did not get! She claimed I did not need it in one pinky finger. 1 fell off in a week and another is hanging off! You CAN see them growing out also! They refused to refund any $ but told me if I came back they would charge me for each nail that needed repair.
I hated the UV Gel because they are so thick & Fake looking. I would NOT recommend this place.

I have been going to Posh for 2years but will not continue. I and my daughter were pressured to upgrade our pedicures at least 3times before proceeding. Upon check out $ 120 I was told to tip 20%! what? I thought this very rude and expressed my displeasure to the girl. She said the management guarantees the girls 20% and if the clients don’t tip that they have to make up the difference. At this point I tried explaining to her what a tip actually was and that if they didn’t pay their employees enough they should increase their prices not demand a 20% tip from customers .At this point one would think she would not want to continue with this conversation as other customers were now listening however she continued saying that some restaurants actually include a 20% tip in the bill I GAVE UP AT THIS POINT SND JUST TOLD HER I FELT TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED IN THIS ViSIT.

Very expensive and terrible mani pedi. They hardly did anything other than the very very basic and if you ask they tell you they will get your feet looking great but it will cost you extra. Really???

A week later and my nails are still perfect even after being really hard on them! Thanks Kevin!!!

Went today for a nice pedi for Mother’s Day, decided to get the day spa pedi because of the extra massage and I didn’t get it. I was shorted 6 minutes of my 10 minute massage, and didn’t receive the chair massage after either which is always included. When I asked the owner about it, he laughed and said «oh sorry»! I spent $ 120 in two days there and I get a oh sorry? I definately won’t be back and will tell everyone about my experience!

Went to posh after class with my friend to get celebratory pedicures. Everything was clean and the staff was friendly despite the fact they tried to up-​sell a lot. I’ll let the fact the nail tech said she was scared of my tattoos slide as a cultural difference, I would have enjoyed the «complementary» shoulder neck rub while sitting at the dryer more if the guy hadn’t seemed annoyed by the fact he was going to rub my neck, or the fact it kind of felt like he was trying to pinch my trapezium muscles off.

This was the shortest and roughest pedicure I’ve ever had. I love trying new salons looking for the best pedicure, and this was my worst to date.
I’ll ignore the confusion that was caused while trying to make 3 appointments for 2 pedicures and 1 mani/​pedi (I had to explain 4 times that there were 3 guests, 2 getting just pedicures and 1 getting a pedicure and manicure) and I’ll ignore being rushed to sit in my chair even though I was 10 minutes early and my other 2 guests hadn’t arrived yet. I can’t ignore the pain I endured while my technician pushed back my cuticles like she was angry with them. I also can’t ignore the fact that from the start of the pedicure to just before polish, was 13 minutes. I timed it. Polishing took another 10 minutes and I still had a good amount of polish left on my skin. My nails were also way too short and a couple of them crooked. The only good thing about the pedicure was the hot stone massage, just wish it was more than 2 minutes.
The disposable plastic tubs are a gimmick to make you think they are sterile. The file and callus buffer were clearly reused, A LOT, even stained with old polish of past clients.
Lastly, I understand most clients want to be catered to, but I personally found it to be too much. From helping me remove my boots and socks, to trying to remove my jacket while I was sitting down, and then hovering over me while I dry and proceed to try to help put my boots and jacket back on.
It’s a cheap pedicure at $ 30, but that experience was not worth it and I won’t be returning.

This place is as good as it gets! Fair prices, extremely clean and well maintained, very informed and professional staff. I keep sending people to this place because it is the best in the area!

Okay I’ve been here for services about six times now and here is my review.
The first time I came here I was drawn to the upscale salon and clean atmosphere.
Gel manicure and pedi was meant to last for my vacation. I flew out the following day and before I even landed my nails had a chip. And surprisingly my toes were ruined before my seven day vacation had even ended. I’ve had better normal mani and pedi’a before. —so I came back to get a pedi and mani and they charged me extra to take off the horrible gel job they put on!
Before my vacation I also got a bikini wax. Which was done behind a curtain and not in the nice spa like room they have… she waxed way more than a bikini wax which is not what I asked for. And when I went to pay she told me it was extra because she waxed more than a bikini… Yeah… I never asked for that. I didn’t feel like arguing in front of everyone so I just payed and left.
I starting coming here and paying a little more for the cleanliness and the extra attention they add to the experience. But I am truly not satisfied. I already pay extra for the services here so stop sneaking stuff or pressuring services on your guest. Posh nails I really had high hopes for you! I want to like you guys but I’m very disappointed.
Still searching for my clean friendly reasonable nail destination!

Great addition to Woburn. Lovely nail salon with lots of pedicure chairs (perfect for a girls day), and plenty of manicue stations. A very nice and clean space.
I got a gel manicure and was happy with the service. The extra attention they pay their customers goes a long way. A shoulder massage while you’re waiting for the gel to come off, and the warm parafin wax at the end of the manicure is such a nice touch. Never mind another shoulder massage just before you leave. I really felt like they took care of their customers. I left happy and the price is right. There are coupons and specials which is so rare now a days.
My only complaints would be they didn’t use cuticle tools. So she never cleaned up any dead skin away. When asked about it she said I didn’t need it. When I go back, which I will be back, I will insist they do. I think that’s a big part of the manicure. And lastly, a few colors I picked out they actually didn’t have and one swatch she said took longer to dry than the others so she recommended that I go with something else. So I kind of just grabbed any last color.
But — -I will be back and I will recommend friends. Just do the cuticles – that’s a big part.

I have to say reading some of the other reviews on here I was a bit nervous to come here. After all is said and done I think they’re being a little too critical. This place is much nicer than I expected it to be given the plaza that it’s located in. They have a few different options for pedicures. I got the least expensive one ($ 30) and have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The woman who worked on my feet was very nice and did a great job. In addition to clipping my talons and the usual pedicure repertoire I had parrafin wax and a hot stone massage on my legs. One thing I can say is they were a little pushy with the upsells, although most of the extra services weren’t things that I would need. I will definitely be back

Nice people and looks clean (newly remodeled). Who knew a potentially upscale nail place in 4 Corners would exist? Sounds too good to be true. And it is.
They told me OPI gel was way gentler than Shellac/​CND when I first went two weeks ago. Um, no. She must now know her product lines? The amount of scraping (after having the nails wrapped for half an hour) it took completely ruined my natural nail beds (remember, these aren’t acryclic, but my real nails), which also makes getting my preferred French manicure impossible. And the «regular manicure» is now 7 hours old, and looks *awful* on at least two fingers.
On the plus side, the people are nice. The pedicure last week was nice, too, except I winced when I saw the cheese grater for the bottom of my foot. Not sterilized. Think that might be illegal?
Anywho… Frankly, so disappointed that I tried the product/​service they told me to and it caused way more damage than was there before. The two stars are for the nice people. As of now, I feel like I have wasted a lot of money on my fingernails here :-((Which is the one beauty régime I keep up with all year long as a treat to myself).
