Nail Salons near Mountainside

“Highly recommend Meraki Salon.
Beautiful salon and wonderful people. My stylist Barbie is the best of the best“

“First time in a very long time that I did a pedicure at a salon vs. myself and Sandra did an excellent job! She cleaned the cuticles very well (I did not opt for callus remover but she scrubbed my soles quite well anyways), she has incredibly strong hands and the 20 min foot massage pure perfection. Her coloring skills are also on point ??. Highly recommend, and I’ll definitely be back! ❤️“

“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.“

“I went to this nail salon after reading the many great reviews on Google. The reviews are on point! The service was quick, and the nails came out beautiful. The nail artists pay close attention to detail and give you the result that you want. The owner is also very flexible when it comes to scheduling appointments. Overall, I had a comfortable and pleasant experience at this nail salon. I would recommended it 10/10 for anyone in Union County!“

“I had never gotten my nails done before, so coming here was definitely an interesting experience. Ms. Linda was super sweet and kind and informative about the entire process and did everything in her power to make sure I was comfortable. My nails came out amazing for my vacation and held up for so long. Thank you so much Ms. Linda!!! ☺️??“

“I just had my fourth visit to Soto’s Beauty Salon, and I can confidently say this is my new favorite spot! Nena has been my go-to for manicures and pedicures, and every single time she delivers outstanding results. Her skill, attention to detail, and friendly demeanor keep me coming back. The salon has such a relaxing and welcoming vibe, making it the perfect place to unwind. As a man, I appreciate how comfortable and professional the experience always is. If you’re looking for consistent, high-quality service, Soto’s Beauty Salon is the place to be. Nena and the team are simply the best!“

“I didn't realize this place was cash only and didn't have a debit card to use with their ATM until a couple minutes after we got started. I could have easily run to the bank and returned before we really got into the service, they said I could go to the bank after and completed my 2 hour service then trusted me to go to the bank and come back. It's so lovely to see that level of faith in humanity in today's world.“

“Love this business!! Everyone is so happy and friendly!Joselin does beautiful nails! I love her!“

“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.“

“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.“

“I recently went to Olga for a hair cut and she was so wonderful. She took her time and really wanted to understand what I was looking for.
I was pleased with my experience so I went back for a partial highlight with Grace.
She also exceeded my expectations and was so caring of my color goals. She brought out swatches and explained to me different things about coloring new hair growth that was helpful. She also extended the offer to come back if I wasn’t happy with anything within a week. I really appreciate that she cared and truly wanted me to be happy with the results of my color!!! Highly recommend! Also, reasonably priced and a great atmosphere.“

“Incredible! 10/10 service!!! I got the spa pedicure and it was incredibly luxurious at a great price and near by (where as before I would have to travel to New York) The team’s attention to detail, cleanliness and taking their time to make sure you get the best out of your service was nice to witness! This will be my go to spot moving forward! Thank you Lili Nails for the great experience.“

“Beatriz at Anthony Garubo is simply the best. She listens, pays attention to the details, and always knows what will work for me. I always leave feeling like the best version of myself.“

“Lynn #2 took great care to the shape of my nails and did an awesome design. The salon was neat and friendly.“

“This was my 2nd visit to Shade Nails and it was just a pleasant as the 1st visit. I just want to say that this is the BEST nail salon I've been to since I've moved to Jersey. This salon is so welcoming and professional. Rosy was my nail tech and she was AMAZING. She was pleasant, gentle, and pays attention to detail. I showed her the picture of the design I wanted and she NAILED IT! The owner is also Great. She leads by example and it shows in her staff. She offered me a cup of coffee while Rosy was doing my nails, which took me by surprise. I declined bc I dont drink coffee, so she offered me tea, which i love. I thought that was so sweet. I've never had that service in a salon that wasn't a luxury spa. The cherry on top was that I absolutely LOVED my Nails❤️?. I got so many compliments on vacation. I will definitely make an appointment with Rosy again.“

“I’ve been going to Luxe Beauty Touch for my nails, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! Andrea always take the time to ensure that every detail is perfect, and I leave feeling like my nails look amazing every single time.

“5 Stars – A Self-Care Gem in Montclair!
My husband and I absolutely love coming to Nail Fitness for our monthly self-care. From the moment you walk in, Tina—the owner—and her wonderful staff make you feel so welcomed and cared for. Everyone is always friendly, warm, and professional.

We’ve had services done by several of the ladies here, and each time, we leave feeling relaxed and pampered. They truly take their time to ensure everything is done right, and the quality of their work speaks for itself. Whether it’s nails or other treatments, you can tell they care about their craft.
