Akiko Nails - New York (NY)

5 /5 Angie gomez: I have been going to AKIKO for a while now and it’s 100% worth it the work and the effort that goes into the nail art is truly amazing. The staff is super friendly and are very attentive with the service given to costumers. My nails have never been stronger after getting extensions, and sets have never been more durable after a month like the ones I’ve gotten at AKIKO. I truly recommend this place it’s amazing!!!

5 /5 Olivia Zadkovic: AKIKO is the best quality you can find for the price. The salon standards are very high and I would trust any artist there for a perfect manicure. Can easily go three weeks in between visits and minus the grow out it always looks the same as the day I got them done. I’ll never go anywhere else!

5 /5 Carolyn Zhong: I’ve been going to Gianni monthly for over a year and a half now and every single time my nails come out perfectly! The salon is clean and comfortable, and the receptionists are always super friendly and helpful with scheduling or rescheduling appointments. Gianni always matches my inspo pics exactly, and takes her time to clean and prep my nails - which is probably why my nails can last up to 5-6 weeks without chipping! I always get compliments on my nails from friends, coworkers, and strangers everywhere I go and have referred all of them to Akiko!

5 /5 Jean Tinnelly: Lisa did s lovely job. I got the special design and she recommended a solid color for tge other nails. I wanted to leave a review because I was nervous to go seeing the other reviews. Lisa was professional and quick. She got so close to the nail bed because it is hard gel so the manicure has a really full look to it.

2 /5 Vicka Matsuka: It’s funny how their website states how they are so “customer oriented, everything is about customer’s satisfaction”… well in my opinion best customer care is when the service is high quality and wastes the least amount of the customer’s precious time. You can see how my pedicure looked after going to this salon. The first set of photos is made in the salon RIGHT AFTER the service, the second set - at home several hours later…. First of all your regular polish is obviously very low quality, I’m not blaming the technician, it’s not her fault, the polish is terrible. But what happened is that they had only one pedicure technician on a fully booked Sunday and for some reason only she could fix my nail polish but she was already busy with the next client. I believe that when the customer service is truly good, ANY technician can step up and fix the problem, but no, they told me to wait till my technician is free which is a waste of my time and I couldn’t just sit and wait after already being at the salon for 2.5 hours. Respect your client’s time. They did offer me to come any day in the next 7 days to change the polish but that’s even a bigger waste of my time!! Plus I was leaving for vacation the next day. So yes I went to my vacation with these nails. My manicure looks pretty good however the technician was a bit too rough with the machines and her station was pretty filthy. Never coming back to this place. 120$ for what you see in the photos is pretty ridiculous.
