I was very excited to try this place. The woman upfront is friendly and the place is clean. HOWEVER, the pedicure I received yesterday was disappointing. The nail tech burnt the side of my toe with the electric rotating blade. I had to ask her twice to be gentle until I asked her to completely stop. Afterwards, when she was cutting my cuticles she cut a chunk of skin from my toe. I brought it up again and she did not even apologize. The service was rushed, even though no one was really in there. I will not be going there again.

The staff are so kind and friendly, and the place is kept clean. I’ve been going here for years when I want to get a spa pedicure and gel manicure for a special occasion. I’m never disappointed - they do great work here! It’s best to make an appointment, since they can get quite busy. They adhere to their appointment schedule and do their best to accommodate walk-ins. Unfortunately, I’ve seen walk-ins get frustrated when they can’t be taken right away since clients with appointments are prioritized. Again, I recommend calling and getting penciled in their schedule if you want to be guaranteed a spot at a particular time.

You’ll notice all the people leaving 1 star are consistently leaving 1 star for other businesses. Such a shame — Forest Nails is the best!! This is the only place I will go in the neighborhood. I’ve been a regular for six months. I’ve tried other places in the area and I’m not impressed. I ALWAYS come back here. The owner is so sweet and all the staff is accommodating and friendly. The salon is super clean. Every time I’m here, they ask if I want something to drink; they ask if I’m comfortable, if the temperature is just right, if the color looks good, etc. They’re just the best! I get my nails done every 2 weeks here, gel manicures and spa pedicures. The prices are great, too. I can’t say the last time I’ve been to a better nail salon.

First experience here was at 1pm on a Sunday not busy at all but the nail tech seemed to be in such a rush the entire time and then made a huge deal because I wanted to switch the color before she even started painting. Also severely overpriced $70 just for dip powder she did it way too thick and it looks clumpy. She also forced me to tip so I ended up spending $80 in total. I regret tipping and doing my nails here. Don’t recommend.

Wow, have been coming here for years and they just charged me an extra $2.00 fee for using my cell phone to tap pay (i paid 10 dollar tip in cash for pedi). Apple Tap pay does NOT charge fees. Google it Forest nails. Also, this was my debit card that was linked to it - CASH. I am extremely disappointed and told them so. They didn't care that I said I will never come back. Thanks and bye!

Regular Mani pedi is $41. Lucia wasn't the best. She rushed the pedicure and forgot to Scrub one foot. It was the fastest pedicure ive ever had. There were streaks in the nail polish and it was a sloppy mani.

This place sucks! This is the second time my gel manicure from here has chipped in less than 24 hours. They rush so much - she barely gave me time to pick out my color and THEN cut my skin. I was dumb enough to get my chin waxed after and she ended up waxing my entire lower face - I'm prone to heavy breakouts and there's a reason I don't do everything. Really terrible service. I will NOT be going back.

My usual spot in Forest Hills was really packed and I needed to get my nails done for my graduation so I made a quick stop here. The service was quick. I didn't have to wait at all. I walked in asking for a French pedicure/manicure and instantly sat. The woman doing my nails was hesitant to remove my cuticles because of hurting me, and was opinionated with nail shape, and color choice. A talkative Salon for those not interested in that! I was taken off guard for sure and found myself having to remove my headphones outta respect. Regardless, I got the raw honey, brown sugar scrub Pedicure ($50 on the menu) and it was nice overall, a well done heel scrub and relaxing with the massage included. Overall, the service was friendly and good but I didn't like how after one day my nails already started chipping. Plus they wouldn't let me add a rhinestone to my nails, saying that rhinestones are only for GEL. I'm not a nail expert, but I'm not sure if that seems right? Why not just use some glue. Idk.

Stopped by for a last minute gel manicure and happy that they were able to accommodate me. However, I must say this has got to be the worst gel manicure I've gotten in my lifetime (and I've been getting my nails done for over 10+ years). The lady that did my nails kept missing the edge of my nails while applying the polish and I had her fix 3 of them and they were still mediocre. She didn't buff/file my nails once the polish was cured so my nails are now rough at the edges.

I paid for gel manicure and pedicure 81 USD plus taxes, really expensive! And when I was about to leave, they ask me for tip, even when I told the woman who made the work that I wouldn't pay it. So she and her boss followed me to the door and started to yell to me, that they needed my cash for tip, or pass my card again for this. They were really rude! You can yell others on the street for that reason, and as much as I know, this is not an obligation, even more when is a high price. Not a good costumer service at all!
