Coco Nails & Spa (Pink Nails) - Staten Island (NY)

1 /5 Jacklyn Peczek: Gel started peeling after 1 week, this shouldn’t happen. They never applied a bottom coat, barely let it dry and didn’t allow me to wash my hands before painting. This now caused fungus to grow under the acrylic power. Very annoying and won’t be wasting my money and time here again. Now I have to pay someone to fix my nails, ridiculous. (Picture is 2.5 weeks after service, these usually last me 3 weeks tops and still look perfect) Go to Hugenot nails instead!!!!

2 /5 Chrissy: Wanted to love this place more but the best part as the neck rub, my nails are meh. I was a walk in, Theresa started my nailed and stopped 3 times to make phone calls. Didnt even say anything she just got up the first time outside the other 2 times at the counter. There were more times after she stopped but I can understand when phones ringing or ppl need to pay. Not even done shaping my nails I get what seems like a new person swaps. Which she buffed and polished my nails, wanted a design on my ring finger she did ok. She was a bit rougher on the nails, but everyones starts somewhere. Than paying, I didnt have cash I went to tip on card. I was gonna give the massager 10 and her 5. I usually tip 5 for nails and Im told paying I have to switch that. I said whatever give them both 10. Massager did a for my neck, but I know I wont be coming back. Place is out of date, sitting there looking at a burnt on the bottom tv, the atmosphere is very uncomfortable. A lot of stuffs broken around the shop. Not once did anyone try to make a conversation or any type of friendliness here. So between my streaky nails, ambiance, over all experience Id say pass on this place.

5 /5 Nawal Elsibay: Ive been getting pedicures at Coco nails for over a year now, and I enjoy my experience here everytime. The women are all so accommodating and make sure youre taken care of. My favorite is Veronica. She is very good at what she does and is very professional. She also does excellent leg and feet massages during the pedicure and makes sure your experience at the salon is a good one. Thank you Veronica! ❤️

1 /5 Nicold Delorenzo: I went in for a regular manicure which was listed for $15. They charged me for taking off gel which was another $10. This was not listed or told to me until I was already paying. I waited for 40 minutes and there was only 4 other customers. The manicure was rushed and sloppy. Paint all over the side of my nails. The lady who did my nails then demanded a tip as my nails were drying. In total I was charged $30 for a horrible manicure. Horrible experience!

1 /5 Danielle Geandomenico: I stopped going here years ago due to bad experiences. Have not missed the place at all. Theyre more expensive for exact same services than most other nail salons- however I went back just to see Blanca for a pedicure because she gives the best leg and foot massage Ive ever had with a pedicure- no one compares. I had my pedicure with her and the massage amazing- the other workers there who do nails only- horrible. Rude as can be. While I waited for someone to finish who could do my nails another employee who could have greeted me or done my nails was doing her nails- for over an hour. Playing with the polishes. Multiple employees were sleeping with their heads down at their work stations the entire time I was there to get my nails done. There was a massage guy who didnt move from his seat the entire time or look up from his phone. Other workers who sat at their desk and stared at phone entire time. It was uncomfortable- as other reviewers have mentioned... this is not the way to operate a business. People could have been working- stocking- cleaning- asking clients if theyd like a water or a massage etc- anything. I was ignored. Multiple times. When I finally got a person who could do my nails she was rude. Anything I asked she was angry and rude. I asked her to help me find a dip color like Funny Bunny and showed her a picture of the color on nails- she was nasty and threw the colors at me and kept repeating these are the only colors we have... my thought here was you are the professional who does dip color day in and day out- so show me what you know is a soft white color- she didnt want to help she wanted me to pick a color even though I couldnt find a soft white at all or a white in general. I was frustrated. I looked at the employee sitting next to her and showed her the picture and said do you know of a soft white? She totally blew me off and nodded her head as if to tell me dont talk to me! She said No! You ask her she will help you those are the colors! Incredibly rude. And my thought was yes Id love for her to help me- but she doesnt want to. After we picked a color she was throwing my hands around and yanking them as Ive noticed the ones with attitude do- which honestly makes me so angry. Im paying you. Im paying you for a service. Not to take out your frustrations on me and be nasty. Im literally paying 50.00 (overpaying by 10.00 bc Coco nails over charges for everything compared to other salons) for you to do a simple dip and youre being short and nasty and rude. Anything I asked like can they be a little shorter was met with excuses and basically being told no. Its insane and such a terrible experience- one of many reasons I stopped going years ago and found other places. Mind you- I was only back because I just had a baby and really was craving an amazing pedicure massage from Blanca. So long story now- I will never ever go back for nails. I will see Blanca only for massage. I wanted to make sure hopefully the owner Theresa sees this and changes how she is managing this location and her staff- bc at this rate- wow. She wasnt there and was at a second location. Your employees are sitting around with their heads down, scrolling their phones, sleeping at their station, ignoring customers and on top of it all being down right rude. There is nothing about that experience that would make a person want to return for a service. Terrible. The place I go regularly now is Holly Nail by Veterans and wow they are so friendly and nice and sweet and less money.
