Gates Beauty Lounge

Charged me $100 (plus tip) for a gel manicure. Chipped all over within 2 days, and even the chrome is falling off now. Have never paid that amount even for a gel SNS with tips or acrylics!! They were kind, so a star for that but they overcharged me and I didn’t even get what I wanted.

I love coming here! Sanju did these lovely nails for me. The $20 manicure is an incredible value! They give your hands a little scrub, quick hand massage, neck/shoulder massage, and a tea or water if you like. Best to pay in cash. You must tip in cash (ATM inside)

Updated 5/18/25: Price has gone up, quality has gone down :( I suppose as a pro for the salon, if you need a speedy-quick, in-and-out, <20 min pedicure this is the place to go. Cons for the salon are they've cut me the last 2 times I was in there (once when exfoliating my feet, once when filing my nails), the pedicure is sloppy, and you're gonna be hustled out almost as soon as you sit down. Not sure what's changed over there, but the service switch up def has me looking to change to another salon in the area. Too bad, this place used to be great! So excited for this shop to open up! It’s a nice midway point between Luna on Fulton and Element further down Bedford (I think its the same owners as Element, the staff wear Element uniforms and its a v similar vibe.) Couldn’t be happier with th

Love this place!!! The staff is kind and the service is almost always immediate. I enjoy getting my nails done and really the overall environment. They have a lot of options in terms of colors, not big on designs though.

I came in to get a manicure and pedicure and the person giving a pedicure told me to “hurry up and pick a color because we close at 7:30” mind you it was 6:30 at the time. They are very unprofessional and all run out at 7:30pm regardless of how they did on your nails. The store manager Nansung is absolutely useless in resolving issues. I came in a separate time today to try them out again, and they wouldn’t do my nails when I came in at 7:15 because they have to leave at 7:30. This is not like any business I’ve ever encountered. I’ve worked in customer service, if a client comes in before we close we service them. They clearly rush their clients and refuse good clients and money.
