Nail Salons near Carteret

“Great experience! Super clean salon, friendly staff, and professional service. I felt comfortable the whole time. New lady Inder she did very good job I did my waxing from her she gave me very good massage after waxing. She did awesome work. But prices are little high but overall very good.
Highly Recommended!!“

“The best! Have been going to Pro Nails for 20+ years now. Love all the staff: Joy, Andy, Kim, Rosa, Linda, Veronica and Dina. Moved out of the area and still drive to Carteret for my gel fill-ins, pedicures and eyebrow waxing.“

“Nick expertly did my nails, while Eric gave me a fantastic pedicure. I was thoroughly impressed with the service. I had made an appointment in advance, which was a great idea since they were quite busy. I’m already looking forward to my next appointment.“

“I had a wonderful experience! Everyone was so kind. The one who did my nails (if I spelled your name wrong I’m so sorry!) Heidi, did a wonderful job! ? she was always checking in with me to see if I was okay and if I liked my nails a certain way. Such a sweet person and very gentle! Ask for her if you come here. I recommend 10000000/10 ?❤️“

“So there are two listings for the same salon. I will be duplicating this review for the other listing since there are two.
This listing and reviews are what brought me to Waves.
I needed a haircut badly. My hair had many dead ends and was frizzing and tangling easily.
After seeing whose name came up the most I went to Noreen for my cut and style.
Booking the appointment was so easy. I made the appointment online which was great for me. It was also a day they were closed so I didn’t have to worry about waiting for them to open and forgetting to call. I can always book it whenever. And the text/email reminders were so helpful.
I was worried about parking but that turned out to be a nonissue. The area of Cranford is very nice but isn’t as busy as the downtown area. It is street parking. But not metered. And I found a spot right out front in the shade! It is currently an excessive heat watch so shade is helpful. And I mean it was right out front and it was an end spot so I didn’t even have to parallel park.
I got there a little early. Checked in and everyone was very nice. They made sure I didn’t park in the back lot which is for residents. So helpful.
I met Noreen and she was so very nice.
I got my hair washed by Fiona and she was also very nice. Easy to chat with. The chair and sink were very comfortable. Sometimes the sinks hurt my neck but this was not an issue. It was very relaxing.
Then Noreen and I talked about what I wanted done with my hair. She made extra sure that I was comfortable with the length of my hair and my new curtain bangs and face frame. Did exactly what I wanted and did it amazingly!
Sometimes stylists want to “thin” out my thick hair or give me layers but I prefer not to get that done. Noreen did not do this which I appreciated. She really was attentive. Again she also was so easy to talk to. So friendly.
She knew I was going out that night and styled my hair wonderfully. Even told me how to freshen it up later and how to recreate the look on my own.
I was curious about the MagicShield keratin treatment and she told me everything about it! Not only the price but how long it would take, four hours, which is important information! Informed on everything. It was very helpful.
Finally I’ll just comment on the salon itself. It’s pretty large but not crowded which is nice. Plenty of space between stylists so you’re not crammed in. It looks very sleek. Plenty of light. A nice sitting area. I really do love how open it was. It was also clean and updated. Lots of natural light as well.
There was no surprise charges and they even had Apple Pay available. The receptionist knew who washed my hair and everything I had done. I was able to leave a tip in an envelope with her so I didn’t have to find or interrupt anyone.
So to sum it up I will be going back and I do highly suggest this salon.

Requested style: I wanted a significant amount of hairs cut and a curtain bang that flowed into a face frame.

Hair type: Very long hair to a tad longer than shoulder length. Very thick and takes longer to cut and is harder to cut well. Noreen cut it amazingly well.

Stylist: Noreen was amazing and so very nice. Was able to handle my thick hair.“

“Yanery did such a stunning job yet again on my nails! She took her time with the nail clean up, structure, shaping, application and paint job. Her energy never fails to make me feel welcomed and loved when I have an appointment with her. I highly recommend booking with her! Leur is definitely the best nail salon in the area!“

“Noemi and Erika did a fantastic job stopping my hair! They're not just trying to sell products; they want to educate their clients and really improve your hair's health. They took the time to explain each step they took and sent me home with a clear game plan to maintain and improve my hair. Loved visiting Utopia! Will go again next chance I get.“

“After being disappointed by so many salons, I have finally discovered one that is not only beautiful and clean but I found Sydney who will give you exactly what you want. She understands hair and scalp! She comes from a history of hairdressers & her expertise along with up to date trends are amazing. She is trained on checking for any suspicious lesions on the scalp which made the experience that much more comfortable. My hair has less damage, less breakage & looks amazing. Thank you Sydney & Lavender !!!“

“The experience and quality IS SO WORTH IT! Linda and her team do such a great job everytime. Her work is beautiful! Can’t wait to come back I leave impressed everytime! Thanks again Linda!!!

I would highly recommend coming to this establishment if you want great, welcoming and high quality service!“

“Sherry was fantastic! I had my brows and lip threaded before a wedding I’m attending this weekend. She was quick, friendly, professional, and I left feeling a lot better than if I had tried to groom my brows myself.“

“Their services are wonderful, but for the prices they should have better customer service. They rarely answer the phone and sometimes the receptionists are bothered by requests or not knowledgable. For the prices and the area, I expect more.“

“When I say I have found a NEW HOME NAIL SALON!!! THIS IS IT!! SHE RESHAPED MY NAILS PERFECTLY!!! When I came, my nails were bulky and really long. I wanted them shorter to maneuver a little bit more in my day to day.

She came up with suggestions, talked me through what would be better for my nails. It was like my nails went through surgery. I wish I can show yall a b4 and after pic because once she was done; it was EXACTLY how I pictured it in my mind.

PERFECT!! I Was in awe of how good of a job she did. I forgot her name but she is the owner. Prices are A1. Not overcharged prices. And the work is PROFESSIONAL. THIS IS THE BEST WORK I'VE SEEN IN YEARS!!! IT is a very peaceful and intimate setting.

I got my appointment 10am when they 1st opened; they were busy from the 1st time opening and the owner was very informative and communicative on NAILS PERIOD. They offer snacks and drinks. Parking on the street is available.

I found a design I wanted beforehand and she literally freestyled the rest of my fingers- I actually was IMPRESSED. I WOULD RECOMMEND HERE FOR EVERYONE. THANK YOU TO THE OWNER WHO RECONSTRUCTED MY NAILS AND THE GREAT CONVERSATION. I WILL BE COMING ONCE A MONTH. THATS WHEN SHE SAID THEY WILL LAST UNTIL. I APPRECIATE YOU ??????????“

“Camille is very accommodating and knowledgeable when it comes to bleach blonde and thick, unruly, hair. She is patient, listens to what your needs and desires are, and truly wants you to be happy and excited when you leave her chair all this with a beautiful smile. It is very difficult to get my hair the right color, with a great blow dry and curl that lasts and lasts but she nails it every time! I highly recommend her! The owner Kim is awesome and very welcoming as well as the staff. Just a great vibe all around. You won’t be disappointed.“

“Very special services,, Esteban the make up artist is very professional and my make up looks amazing,, and Joselyn the manicurist it’s the best, I recommend this place,,I love the staff so friendly and very professional,,I’ll be back soon!!!“

The establishment is very cleanly and spacious. If you’re looking for a salon that’s a one stop shop… this is it. And in business I felt like I gained family. Hey cousins !!!! Very good experience! My new found nail tech ?“

“Good service, workers were all very kind, nails are gorgeous and exactly like inspo pictures. Thank you! ?“

“This is my second time coming here after searching for a good salon on the island and I’m so glad I found it. The staff is friendly and professional, and you can tell they really care about their work. Jesse did such an amazing job on my nails, paying attention to every detail and making sure everything looked perfect. They work quickly but never rush the quality. My nails came out exactly how I wanted, if not better. I’ll definitely keep coming back and highly recommend.“

“I just came home from getting my hair colored and cut and can honestly say that I am so pleased with my hair!! Maribel was so accommodating and so warm and friendly that this experience was like coming home. I highly recommend Maribel and her associate for this experience“

“Have been going to Shadow Nails for 5 months now. I go to Jenny and she is great. I use the T.A.P. Hybrid Nail Gel and absolutely love it. Jenny does fantastic work and is very creative with her nail designs. The pedicures are so relaxing my feet feel so refreshed afterward. The prices are very reasonable too. Highly recommend them.“

“Nina , Lisa and the rest of the nail specialists at Nail Reflections are amazing. I always book with Nina and she meets and exceeds all of my needs and expectations. My nails last and they always come out amazing. It’s the reset that I need every time I walk in. The aesthetics and customer service is top tier. Booking is simple and easy. The communication matches that. 1000% recommend Nail Reflections to anyone.“

“Before and after pictures of my hair, I got the balayage service the ladies at the Salon were very professional, patient and educating they guided me through the process of choosing the best hair color for me and how to properly take care of it and maintain it. Thank you so much for my new look Sumeli and Melania“
