Above Pigment Nails & Spa - New York (NY)

Christine Chuang Been going to this place for 3 months now. I really like it. Place is clean and all the ladies there are friendly. So far I’ve been very happy with their work!

Kylen Smith Ive had awful experiences with nail salons near here, but Im happy to say that I found a wonderful salon that gave me one of the most high quality gel manicures I have ever received. I booked a 12:30 pm appointment and was seated right away. The salon wasnt empty but wasnt crowded either - a good sign, in my opinion. My nail tech was very thorough throughout the entire process. I never felt rushed as she made sure everything from my nail length/shape, cuticles/skin around my nails, and the application of the color was perfect. I was fortunate enough that she was able to provide me a UV dryer for each hand (although I dont know if this would be the case during a busier time). Unlike other places that try to rush the drying stage, my nail tech made sure to let my nails stay under the lamp for two full 60 second cycles for each layer of primer, polish, and top coat. She had a sixth sense for knowing when the heat lamp had completed its cycle, as she would quickly turn it back on. Shoulder/back massages are offered, but I declined. I still received a complimentary "sample" massage at two different points during the appointment. It felt so nice that I might have to get one in the future. This salon prefers cash and has an ATM by the front door. The ATM fee isnt that expensive ($2), but there are enough major banks in the area that you can withdraw some cash ahead of time if you want to avoid the fee. My manicure looks beautiful and has really boosted my confidence in the short while that Ive had it. I will definitely be returning in the future!

Lola Kramer I’ve been going here for years, and all along, Golden Tree has consistently maintained a clean, welcoming space with friendly manicurists who provide efficient services. I’m surprised the rating seems forever paused at a 3.8, but I suppose this proves these rating systems don’t always reflect a business’s grit or true performance — particularly from the locals who are there regularly and usually not the ones to review. The frequent customer punch card is the way to go and each time I wind up at a different salon, I regret not having waited for Golden Tree. Don’t forget to tip these hardworking women who run the show.

Galerie Swanström Outstanding service. Excellent manicure. Lots of attention to details. Massage was incredible. Highly recommend. Clean, too! And very friendly. Very clean, and good lighting. Contemporary atmosphere.

Alana Lee I came here after reading the positive reviews and they did not disappoint. I had to remove my old gel powder manicure because it was chipping off, and got a fresh set--the total came out to be $99 including tip for powder, gel polish, tip extensions and French manicure design. It was so well worth it though! Amber did my nails and I highly recommend her for a powder gel manicure, especially if you want any kind of design. They had great service, amazing attention to detail and really listened to what I wanted. I am pretty picky when it comes to what color, shape, and design I want, and feel that if Im paying for a service like nails I want to be happy with the outcome. I was very happy with the process and outcome, and will definitely be coming back.

Izabella Dziecharska I’ve come here a handful of times now and it’s become my favorite nail salon in the city! First of all it’s not outrageously expensive like most places AND they do a great job. All the other places I’ve gone that charge the same or less do an absolutely awful job in one way or another. The ladies here know what they’re doing and they work HARD. I definitely recommend Sunny, especially if you’re getting dip powder. She does so so good every time and is so sweet. One word of advice would be to avoid going after work as it can get very busy

Thu Anh Ly I am so grateful to have found such a passionate and talented nail tech. Ashmita is the real deal! She took the time to listen to my vision and took my nail game to a whole new level. Her meticulous and impeccable work reflects genuine skill, and she surpassed all my expectations. Ashmita is a true artist, and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking an exceptional nail art experience. I will definitely be coming back here. Do yourself a favor and book with her - you won’t regret it!

Johanna E Estevez Loved it!

Shu Kit Impeccable service. My nail technician was patient with me when I couldn’t decide on my colours and even helped with choosing the colours. She was attentive to details and carefully chose the colours to ensure that my nails would turn out as closely to the picture I showed her. The price is also very reasonable

Brooke Meier Serena is hands down the best of the best. she is so quick, kind, and down to help me with my natural nails every time i walk in. i love her holding my hands and sharing snacks while she sculpts my nattys ❤️
