I came in for a regular pedicure ($25) as a walk-in on a Monday afternoon. They were able to take me right away. Once I chose my color, they directed me to go toward the back. Their massage chairs were a treat! I had full control of the remote and I could have sat in there all day. I wish I had gotten the name of the woman who helped me. She was sweet and had a very gentle touch. I didn't experience any discomfort when she was scrubbing off the dead skin from my heels or cutting my cuticles. They let me sit in the chair for another 20 minutes or so for my nails to dry. When one of the other stylists noticed I was getting up, she came over to me and helped me put my sandals back on so I don't accidentally ruin the nail polish. I'll definitely be back for my next pedicure and manicure. Read Less

My go to nail salon. I've always had a great mani/pedi from this place. I've tried many different places in Brookline over the years, I keep going to Nail Stylus. Prices are fair, results are great and the place seems clean. The ladies are very nice too! Read Less

I understand that manicures only last for a few days but mine only lasted for a few hours! I made sure my nails dried for 10 minutes because wanted them to last for at least a few days. I went last night around 6:30 get my nails done and now at 10:30 AM they have already started to chip. I have not showered or done dishes yet so there are no excuses! The women rushed right through my appointment and they weren't even busy! My toe nails were cut way too short and the polish was not put on evenly, you can see the lines. I know manicures are not meant forever but I draw the line when they can't even last for 24 hours! Great at waxing but god awful at nails! Don't waste your time or money. Read Less

Sanitation is my only concern when I go to a nail salon. Here I find it is acceptable to me that people really take time disinfect the tub and their tools before putting me in the pedi chair. I come here often because I fell very welcome and people are friendly. My favorite is with Cindy, she really gave me a good foot massage. One thing I don't like is this salon is not roomy but what can they do? it's in Brookline. Read Less

There's one woman who does a great waxing job. That's Vi. She's very careful, friendly and never rushes. I've been to see other waxers and had my brows uneven. If you want a good job I would suggest going to Vi. The owner Vicky id OK too with the wax but I prefer Vi's waxing better. Read Less

I've been going to Nail Stylus for years and now that I've moved to Somerville, I still make the trek to Brookline to get my eyebrows waxed. To be honest, its not the nicest environment and the tools used on you have been used on others (with a wash in between), but for the money you can't beat it. The manis here are pretty standard, nothing fancy and the massage is not that long, but if you're looking to get it done and spend less than $15, stop by. Also thay have those big massage chairs for the pedis which are nice (and only $20). I like Tina the best, she is the most attentive and is a real sweetheart. As I said i get my eyebrows waxed here, I can't vouch for other body parts but I trust them and whomever I get they are fast and do a great job (although I like the older woman who sits at the front desk the best). Even if I have a complaint or want them to change something, they are more than willing and make me happy. I've been to a few other places for eyebrow waxing but haven't found anyone who does as good a job and only charges $12. Read Less

I had a great pedicure for $20! That is the cheapest one I've had for the quality and long lasting service I experienced. I think I had Lisa. She was friendly, attentive, and very detail oriented. I've had manicures there, too. If parking was easier to find I'd go there more often. I would not, however, trust a place specializing in nails to do waxing. I cannot comment on sanitary conditions for waxing, but the last time I was there (about a month ago) they had just painted their space and it's is cleaner (I find) than many other nail places I've been to.

I came to Nail Stylus after a friend recommended this place to me. I went for a series of wax treatments: bikini, leg, underarm. I have NEVER had such an aweful experience. Not only was the place unclean ( wax with other people's hair all over the place- yuck) but the lady did a horrible job! I spent the next two hours at home trying to get the wax off of my body and out of my hair! Usually I dont mind having to pluck the occasional stray after I get waxed, but it was ridiculous how much hair she missed! ( and I dont have much to begin with anyway!) The lady was nice, but really rushed, and perhaps blind??? Basically, do NOT go here to get waxed unless you want to spend the rest of your evening scrubbing wax off your body and plucking for hours.

Although this is technically a nail salon, they do offer a variety of other services. I had the misfortune to experience their bikini wax (after getting my nails done). It was an absolute nightmare!!! First, the conditions were not sanitary. The procedure itself was painful and extremely uncomfortable (more so than usual). The lady was rude and unprofessional. She was RIPPING the strips off my skin, very fast and very carelessly. My skin was burning for days (to the point that I had trouble going to sleep), I had bruises on my skin and terrible irritation which had to be treated with medicated ointments. I will NEVER come here again for any type of service (the nails weren't that great either)!!!!!!! Read Less

I was disappointed with the consistency of this place. The person next to me had a pedicure that was twice as long and more careful then mine. The waxer was rough and unskilled. Overall a disappointing experience for $45. Read Less
