New York Nails & Spa in Altoona, PA

The man who did my nails made me very uncomfortable. he asked me if i was spanish, and when i said yes, he asked if i knew what "mamacita" meant. very confused as to why he asked this i lied and said i didn't know. he then told me to go home and ask my dad what it means. he was laughing about this and his two coworkers beside him did not do anything about his weird, disturbing comments. i'm not the only girl who has had an experience like this here. to the owner, do better. don't let employees talk to people like this. i spent $55 to sit in a chair for an hour feeling uncomfortable and wanting to leave.

Always came here bringing my children for their manicures and pedicure. Today was Awful not once but twice was left setting while new people were taken immediately. Got up and Left . Not like they didn't know me or that their tips were more then Generous. Not going to waste my time or money going back!!

PSA be careful going to New York Nails & Spa. I will not be taking my service there again. Alan was the one who did my nails and i know others in there remove acrylics like this too. He didn't soak my nails or drill then down just proceeded to clip them with nail clippers and put HIS OWN NAIL under my acrylics and rip them off my natural nail. After he saw my nail bleeding because he ripped my natural nail off my skin he said "what happened?" and tried to glue it back down. he then asked why i was getting my nails off and i told him because ive had them done since november and i think its time to get them off along with me starting a new job which consists of hands on work with residents. He then proceeded to tell me that my nails are thin...they were very much thick and healthy until he ripped them off. I can't get my nails done for prom or even paint them until they heal. My nails are so thin they burn when the wind blows when im outside or when i wash my hands. Just be careful where you go!!

Unless you're one of their favorites you will be overcharged and skipped over. I'd rather pay more to be treated decently.

So I made an appointment and showed up before my appointed time. I was seated 30 minutes after my appointment time and then ignored for 25 minutes on top of that. The lady who did my nails seemed very annoyed with me and rushed. I didn't even get the massage you're supposed to get after a manicure. Her gel polish was also very sticky and clumpy and I knew it wasn't going to turn out well. And sure enough, when I get home, my gel completely peeled off like a sticker. However that tells me that she didn't prep my nails well enough. Would not recommend. The service is terrible, they don't prep nails correctly, and their products are expired. You're better off buying a gel kit yourself off of Amazon.
