Albany Nail Salon - Albany (NY)

Teah Izzard I love Ellis Nails! I’ve been twice now and I’ve loved the result each time! The ladies are super thorough and they checked with me each stage to make sure I liked what they were doing! Amazing service, wonderful environment. The music is great and I’m always so comfortable when I go in. Highly recommend this place.

Caroline Horizny Mitchell I’ve been going to Cinderella Nail for years. I like getting ANC on my finger nails and they are always responsive to my requests and the quality is great. I just started doing pedicures and they are SO relaxing and take a long time which is good because you are paying for it. I recently brought my best friend there and she liked it too, and my husband who had a foot massage/pedicure with no polish (obviously). Will definitely keep going back even though I live in Albany near other closer nail salons. The employees are very timely and friendly.

A N Wonderful nail salon. Was my first time there. Very nice bunch of ladies as well as very skilled. For an ANC full set with tips and I am obsessed with these nails. Very affordable and I will definitely be back. Thanks again for a wonderful job.

Ella Maria LeBlanc Ive been going here for years..I love Kiki shes the main one that gives me a manicure and pedicure but Ive had Lisa and her husband do it as well. I love them all. They do a great job. I usually get a manicure and pedicure but also get my eyebrows waxed and have had the chair massage. My husband gets manicure, pedicure and chair massage as well usually by Lisa. Theyre all very nice, helpful, accommodating. They have taken me late before and stayed late. The salon is always clean and they run sales. I always get compliments on my nails! I really love them and recommend them!

Mackenzie Weber A little hole-in-the-wall place, tidy and cozy. I had a fill and a pedicure done by a nail tech named Zhang Meng, he took his time, he was very gentle and detail oriented. The nail art is beautiful, and the pedi was nice and relaxing. It took a good hour and a half, so give yourself lots of time. But it was worth it. Highly recommended. Not sure what all the negative reviews are on about. UPDATE: been going here regularly for 2 years. All the reviews saying that the staff are rude and they hurry - yeah, sometimes they hurry if you dont make an appointment and expect to be served right away, or roll in 10 minutes before closing and ask for a full set or something, or sit down and expect a 15 minute manicure. They take their time, they get it right. And if youre polite, the staff will reflect that. I always leave feeling refreshed and relaxed. Nails are always on point, all the nail techs are excellent, if they make a mistake with your nails theyll do them again (only happened once over dozens of times!) Never had a broken nail that wasnt my fault (acrylic will crack and chip under normal wear, but yall should know this already.) And if Koko makes a suggestion, yall better listen to her. She knows what shes talking about. She and the other nail techs have actually saved me from my own bad design or color ideas a few times - shes never steered me wrong.

K I went in to Rainbow Nail & Spa for the first time. After looking at the mixed reviews, i can honestly say that my personal experience was great. It’s a family atmosphere; yes it may not be your typical ‘bougie’ salon, but they had the tools they needed to do the job. I think folks should give this place a chance and be open minded with the process and if a situation occurs; mistakes happen and we cannot let it ruin our day. It’s best to work together to find a solution. I should have asked the price before i made the reservation so i had to deal with the total. I paid 43 for pedicure, and 35 for manicure. The lady did nudge for me to give a tip and i felt bad if i said no so i put in 5 bucks. She did try to sell me their other services in the beginning but i kindly declined. They’re just doing what every business does, i think it’s good to support our local nail salons. Nonetheless, nails were beautiful, and the workers were very nice. Just always make sure to prepare yourself with the price no matter where you get your nails done :)

Jinhan Fu I did several times of nail painting there, good quality and each time last about one and a half month. They are friendly and I really like my new nail paintings. I will recommend to each of my friend who wanna find a perfect place to do the nail painting. Ready for next time!

Iris Duggan I absolutely LOVE coming here. The atmosphere is so relaxing, and everything smells amazing. I always get my hair done by Samantha (Sam), and she always does the best job. She is super nice, friendly, and is great at cutting all kinds of hair, including curly. If you come here to get a haircut, I would 100% recommend getting it done with her.

Ashley Rivera 10/10 Nail Salon! One of the cleanest Ive been too, super nice staff, and pretty interior. My full set was beautiful!

Ryder G Very clean and very therapeutic Went here as a treat for a birthday as a walk in. We were immediately taken in and got manicures. I wanted a clear coat but the lady recommended a buff and shine because it lasts far longer She was very gentle and efficient. Massaging my hands with oil and soaking my hands in hot water. So relaxing that I almost fell asleep! Here are some before and after pics
