Diamond Nails & Beauty in Brookfield, CT

Pre COVID this salon was my "go to".  I skipped around a bit after that, but thought I'd give these guys another shot.  Wanted to get out from under summer polish and just wanted a trim, cuticle clean up, callus removal and buff.  My $100 pedicure (fees, taxes, and tip - no change offered) looks like this two days later.  I am angry.  Asked her to go back and remove more of the previous polish ... she refused.  "Trust me"; never again.

I literally love my nails, they made it exactly like the picture-- and the women were super nice and fun!

I stumbled upon this place today because my regular salon didn't have any appointments available for last minute. I am literally blown away at the care and effort Linda put into my nails. I don't think I've ever had a better set. I love them so much. When I was done she came running out to my car and gave me a coupon for next time. She was such a doll with my oldest daughter. You could tell she really loves her job. What a great experience!
My nails have never looked better.

I thought I found my new spot and was ecstatic. I've been to dozens of nail salons at this point looking for my go to with reliable results every time. The tech that did my nails was so thorough which is why I am bummed to write this review. She took her time and my nails looked so good before and after the application. I got a dip powder which I'm familiar with because that's all I get since it became a new option versus acrylics. My nails have taken me a long time to grow and have nice length to them. I came in with one that cracked on a slant so it was significantly shorter than the others and needed a tip. Rather than even out my nail and apply a tip she cut it all off which to anyone growing their nails is a heart stopper. Having to wear a tip much longer than I needed was the first strike honestly. The process included steps I've never seen at the dozens of places I've been too. Usually due to my nail length I get a base coat, then three color dips, followed by a gel/liquid top coat. This time I got a base coat, two dips, and that same base coat put as a top coat. It left some of my nails with a specked look which I've gotten use to, a day later but not all of them have it. The real deal breaker was a day later and four nails are cracked which has NEVER happened to me. Just seems her process of two dips was not enough product on my nails. I don't perform any kind of work that involves banging my hands around so this is definitely a first for four broken nails the next day. And it really sucks because when I tell you the tech showed me what my natural nails were like and took care of them besides cutting the one and took her time she really did ! I would post pictures but my nails are a brown color you can barely see the cracks in unless you press on them.

I've visited the salon several times and always liked it until recently. I brought my seven-year-old daughter in for a pedicure and a few days later she had an infected toenail. After trying to treat it at home it still did not get better needless to say we brought her to the doctor where they had to use a needle on her to drain it and now she's on antibiotics because the infection is spreading. My poor daughter is now traumatized by nail salons because they did not clean their tools! Beware!
