Crystal Nails and Spa in Newtown, CT

the nail tech here is so so good!!! 10/10 recommend.
he is so talented. i drive 20 min just to get my nails done here because he is just that good. i paid 53 for the custom nails and gave a 7 dollar tip, so 60. which is really not horrible for good quality nails.

UPDATE
i'm sorta disappointed only bc one of my nails broke  after only 6 days and it's kinda frustrating because they usually last me 3 weeks. last set i came in with from the same nail tech had two nails that were completely off. just frustrating because now i have to go back after a week.

Nail tech seemed upset that we arrived during a little bit of snow. Burned my nail several time because the speed of the drill and length of time was too much.

Cuticle Cutter was NOT sterilized and he used the same one on my daughter.

Here's a photo of what I asked for and what I got. I had the length and he ruined it. All the nails are different lengths and shapes.

I won't be going back.

Clean salon, owner seems nice. I've been here twice. However my second experience was not like the first. the young girl that did my gel manicure was very unfriendly. I think it's safe to say everyone looks forward to the 2 min shoulder massage we pay for and she literally might as well have been brushing me with a feather. She had her back positioned to the owner to make it look like she was actually massaging me, in fact she was just pretending to and it was so unbelievable. It's unfortunate because I live so close and I would have been a regular.

I moved to a neighboring town a year ago so I've tried a few different places. I was so unhappy with the prices and the work around here that I'd still go to my spot in Queens. Well, Crystal is even better than my go to! They are just so nice, friendly, clean and moderate prices. They don't rush which is sooooo important for me and they listen to your wants. My girl knows me all too well where I don't have to tell her what I want, she just knows and does it.

Prices are decent and service was good. I was a walk in with my fiancé and we both got pedicures. He opted for the milk spa pedicure and I did the lavender. They use the hot stones to massage and do a great job at cleaning and scraping off calluses at the bottom of the feet. When we walked in it was empty so I'm not sure how it differs to them being full. But overall my pedicure was relaxing. I did gel on my toes and nails and got a little heart design. Lol could've gone without the design but what's an extra $5? Overall happy with the service and they gave a free rose for Valentine's Day which I thought was such a cute touch to the end of the service. They also give your complimentary shoulder massage. I think they're great and they take time to make sure your nails come out the way you want them too. As for my fiancé, he works in construction and so his feet were terrible lol but they took the extra time to really get his calluses and shape his toes as well as giving a great foot massage. He felt so pampered and relaxed lol. If your looking for a new place in Newtown I'd recommend it.. plus there's a TJ max in the center so you can always go shopping afterwards lol, my fiancé wasn't a fan of that, but I dragged him along anyway! Lol
