****the service is good, the staff is lovely**** this review is in regards to the unprofessional attitude exhibited by the owner****Honestly if I could leave 0 stars, I would. Please save yourself some grief and do not come here. I have been getting my nails done since I was 16 years old and I have never in my life been treated with such absolute disrespect by a salon owner in my life. I am a young professional but I have worked in customer service for ten years before nursing school.....anyway, I was out with my mom and sisters for a belated Christmas gift. There were four of us. My sister booked the appointments for all of us and she had made an appointment for two mani-pedis and two manicures. When we showed up, I asked her if I could do one of the specialty pedicures, she immediately with a flustered "no"......Without even trying to look at her schedule to accommodate the request. (there were two girls with their nails drying and one girl finishing up her manicure)......I looked at the price of $30 for a pedicure (it's $18 in Queens--my sister lives here in NJ). And, I proceeded to say "no, it's ok..I'll just hang out with them. I don't need one that badly". And she says "well you are going to be charged for it anyway" and I said "oh, I didn't know that, well then how much longer is the specialty pedicure?" She says "15 minutes" and I said "ok, well then why can't I have a specialty one if it's only fifteen more minutes?". She said no that she had other appointments. But, what I'd didn't get was that my original appointment was for a hour slot so that's longer than the service I was changing it to.....I continued to say that I didn't understand the issue and all it did was make her mad at me. She was passive aggressive in the way she was speaking to me and all it did was aggrevate myself and the situation. I was honestly appalled at how she handled this whole situation. When you work in customer service you try to accommodate your customers and what I was asking for was not only a more expensive service but it took up the same time as the original manicure pedicure that was scheduled. She should have made it work when I asked the first time. I proceeded to say that I didn't understand the issue but she was adamant about her "policy". My sister (the one that booked the appointment) came in from parking, she wasnt even late for the appointment. Two of us were scheduled for 4:30pm which we were early for and the second two were for 5pm. Even by the time we were done talking, it was all before 5pm.....she started talking to manager when she walked in but was immediately aggressive. And, without even me saying anything to my sister, my sister tried talking calmly to her and wanted to rectify the situation but, the owner would not let up or even attempt to accommodate. Her pride and "policy" meant more to her than her reviews. I thanked my sister for trying and I said "it's not worth it, we will just never come back here again!" Cut to five minutes from then, she takes a walk in!!! LOL what happened to all her "appointments" and not being able to accommodate my specialty pedicure!!??? Mind blown. Read Less

V always makes the extra effort to ensure you’re comfortable, welcome, and she even tries to remember something about every person who walks in the door. Fair prices and excellent mani/pedis. I’d recommend making an appointment ahead of time since she highly respects others time and refuses to overbook and under deliver. Love this spot! Read Less

Best nail salon I've been to. Pricing is about average/reasonable, the salon is clean, the nail techs are awesome, and the owner, Vivian, is super friendly and hilarious. Great customer service goes a long way. Read Less

Let me start by saying the place is super cute and the staff is incredibly nice. I've had very pleasant experiences the two times I have gotten my nails done at the V spot. However, both times I went I got a gel manicure that has lasted only 7- 9 days. I'm not sure if I've been incredibly lucky with the other places I have been, but gel manicures at other places have lasted me minimum 14 days if not 21. I went 8 days ago and have three nails with zero polish on it. The nail completely peeled off. Any other time I get gel manicures I have to get every nail soaked after three weeks to get the polish off. It's a disappointment bc 7 of my nails still look perfect and 3 are bare. Although the place is super cute, I'd rather pay half the price in the city for a gel mani that lasts. Read Less

Love this place. After living in Hoboken for almost 8 years I would never go back to anywhere I had gone previously . The salon is impeccably clean - they used individual pedi bowls instead of those hard to clean spa things that can look gnarly at other salons.  It is also extremely quiet- there arent so many chairs that it is overwhelming and you get to legitimately relax without a crazy hustle and bustle all around you.The techs are very friendly and the owner always helps match a toe color to the gel color I pick (which  I cannot seem to master on my own so it is much appreciated!!) They even accommodated nail art -and knocked it out of the park just by showing a picture.  Would highly recommend but suggest making an appt if possible since I have seen people come in when it is packed (again the small size is a HUGE bonus). Read Less

Love this salon.  They so generously hosted my daughter and 9 of her friends for a birthday manicure party.  It was amazing.  Aside from welcoming my daughter's party, every manicure or pedicure I've received here has been incredible.  Super relaxing, high quality products and it always lasts longer than most. Read Less

Yes, the salon is gorgeous, the ambience is great and the mani/pedis are wonderful but the main reason I will keep coming back here even though I've moved out of Hoboken is the service. I've had my wedding mani/pedi party here and have brought my friends and family here when they visit because Vivian and her team are the best! They always make sure you are taken care of and really make the experience fun and relaxing.If you want a great mani/pedi with great service, this is the place! Read Less

Calgon take me away! Actually I don't need Calgon. I came here to get a mani-pedi before my vacation and I was do relaxed during both my pedicure and manicure that I fell asleep. The service and decor are awesome and my mani ped came out great too. I'll definitely be back. Read Less

This place is adorable and efficient. The workers are friendly and seem to recognize returning customers, which I think is so sweet. This salon stands out to me because of their organized scheduling and prompt service. They don't appear to overbook themselves and know exactly how long to expect for each services, which makes for an extremely relaxing experience if you're on a tight schedule.  I did the gel mani and indulgence pedicure, my arms were so smooth the next day that my friends were petting me! Read Less

Best nail salon in Hoboken . I've tried all the top rated ones on TripAdvisor/Yelp and nothing compared to the V Spot. Warm and welcoming owner and staff, unique and glamorous decor and techniques, professional service. Finally found my mani/pedi spot. Cant wait for my next appointment! Read Less

Nice salon. Too bad my French gel manicure doesnt even last a week before one nail chips and then a second one before the first week is up.  They did fix the first one, but I got a gel so I wouldn't have to deal with chips. Read Less

Pedicure was meh, callus was not removed. Who gets a pedi for the callus to be left? Manicure was a joke, nail polish chipped after one day and uneven nails. Eyebrow wax, uneven. Waste of money! Stay away from this place ! Read Less

This review is only for the eyebrow wax I had yesterday.  I have thin eyebrows to start (shape and hair thickness) and have been religiously going to the same woman elsewhere for 3 years.  I was happy with the shape they were and just needed cleanup.  Got a wax here yesterday and they are now the same over tweezed looking shape I had been trying to fix for years.  Pretty upset.  I will be back here just not for a brow wax.  It was a relaxing experience and everyone is very nice And the pedicures are magical! Read Less

I really like this place. Just having moved back to Hoboken, I tried The V Spot based on their Yelp reviews and have not yet been disappointed. I wish I knew her name, but I have been going to Tech 3 and she is very nice. I have been happy with the result at the end of each visit Read Less

I love this nail salon!! The staff are all very sweet and incredibly talented at what they do. My manicures last longer than other nail salons I've been to in my area. This place is definitely worth a trip out to Hoboken! Read Less

The most adorable nail place ever!!! This review is for a private mani/pedi party.I had a pre-wedding mani/pedi party with friends and the ladies in my family. It was an absolutely amazing time! Vivian was fantastic to work with from start to finish with setting up the details and making all the reservations. I had a few last-minute changes and she was extremely patient and accommodating with me. All my guests were treated with the utmost kindness and professionalism by both Vivian and her staff. Everyone, from my 18-year-old cousin to my grandmother, had a great time!I had aunts and friends here from New York, Atlanta, Washington DC, and some other larger cities and they were all very impressed by the level of service and the shop in general. I loved the oversized pedicure chairs. So comfy! All my guests kept asking me "How did you find this place?? I love it!!"There was plenty of space for the 10-15 of us that were in there at a time. They allotted the time just for my party that morning! I couldn't be more happy with my experience here. Pricing is also phenomenal for the service that you get.PS My nails looked AMAZING for my wedding day! Vivian picked out the best color for me that I never would have thought of myself! I also think I got the best eyebrow and lip waxing that I've ever received here. If I'm ever in the area again I will 100% be back! Read Less

Best manicure in Hoboken. They put fresh aloe Vera on your hands and use an amazing scrub right before that. And I got a shoulder massage while drying . Plus the vinylux 7 day polish is included in their manicure if you choose it . Literally the best. Read Less

Love this place! Intimate but upscale little spot on 14th & Bloomfield. What I love most about this salon is that it's so homey and the atmosphere is way different than all the other nail spots in Hoboken. It's slightly pricier but way worth it for a quality experience that you know will leave you feeling like a million bucks. The staff is so pleasant and the owner is especially attentive. She treats all of her customers like good girlfriends and has chatted with me about everything from my "birthday blues" to recommending a nail color and taking the time to showcase new arrivals. Side note- Definitely make an appointment! It's hard to pick a time between errands on a Saturday but it's worth it because they take their time with you! Read Less

Let me start with saying, I am person who is highly reliant on reviews when booking services-especially nail services. I booked an appointment for a mani/pedi based on the overall average reviews on The V Spot Nail Salon, even though there were multiple reviews stating this "establishment" was offensive and lacked professionalism. I was running late in traffic and after 15min texted/called the owner to inform her that I was on the way. I specifically asked if the nail tech had enough to time before closing to do my nails, she said that they would hold the appointment. I showed up for my appointment and then I was then was belittled and disrespected in front of the other customers when the owner informed me that she gave away my time slot (even though she confirmed on the phone that she would hold it) and started to yell at me for being late! I still can't believe her offensive attitude that she showed me. Please do yourself a favor and stay clear from this place. Read Less

This was my second time here. I was trying really hard to like the place because the decor is cute and it's close by my house, but I'm never going back. First, for the price tag you would expect a bit more but besides the fact that I've been cut twice my manicure looks like all uneven and have different length. So, if you look for a good mani pedi I would not come here!!! What a loss... Read Less

Love this place.!!!! Such a friendly staff and relaxing atmosphere. I walked in today with out an appointment for a gel manicure and they were able to accommodated me right away. Vivian the owner is amazing, very helpful, and the sweetest person. The salon is super cute, clean, and great music. My nails look great & I couldn't be happier :) Read Less

SOLID manicure.  I'm writing this 1 week after my gel manicure and it is still flawless.  The intricacy of the work the manicurist performed was pretty darn impressive and I really recommend their nail work wholeheartedly.  The noticeably amazing job sets them apart from other nail salons in the area. If I was getting married or some other event where my nails were being photographed, I'd get my nails done here hands down, no question.So why the 4 stars instead of 5?  I would say it boils down to the feeling I got as a first time customer.  My friend bought me a gift certificate here for gel mani + pedi.  I had been wanting to try it out for a very long time, but had been told by at least 3 separate friends and acquaintances that the owner was "rude" and "loud".  First of all, I really don't think she is rude at all.  As a matter of fact, she was super friendly and talkative with me and tried to make me feel welcome.  However, she was VERY vocal with the other customers there (who were obviously regulars) and was discussing her VIP programs with them.  Clearly it was my 1st time there and I don't expect to be included in a VIP program, but it was pretty annoying to hear a 15 minute conversation about perks that I wasn't being offered.  Also, their pedicures are performed in portable basins (which I imagine are easier to clean) and when I was getting my feet soaked I saw an errant clipped toenail floating in the water (BEFORE I had my toenails clipped)... so that image will forever be engraved in my mind as slightly gag worthy.  Overall, I think they do a great job on nails.  There is an element of pandering towards regular customers that doesn't sit well with us newbies, but I would think that if you continue to be a patron, this would be a very comfortable place to come consistently.

Got my first pedicure today!  My wife loves this place.  Actually it is the only place she is comfortable going, as she is a hygiene freak.  This place uses basins for the foot tubs which are easy to pick up and clean. Friendly staff and awesome owner.I certainly will be back. Read Less

Thank you for everything! I love coming at your place. It takes much time to look after you, your nails are beautiful and well done !!! I recommend it to everyone! Clean, pink, girly, cute and everyone is here to help you !! Read Less

To start, it was my first time here and I am from out of state. I am very particular about how I like my nails done and the atmosphere and V Spot met all of my expectations. Patty did my nails and they were done beautifully and she helped me pick out my color with such patients and kindness. My boy friend got a manicure and pedicure and he loved it. I don't know her name but she was great! I have found my nail salon home away from home and I can't wait to come back and see these ladies again.Read Less

This nail spa is amazing! I love the pink decor, chandeliers and cozy couches. The regular mani and pedi here is what you would have to pay extra for at other nail salons that aren't even as nice! I really enjoyed the foot and shoulder massages included. Read Less

My 3 year old daughter and I went for manis & pedis. My daughter was too short for a pedi but Vivian made her very happy. She went above and beyond to keep her happy, which in turn made my experience relaxing and enjoyable. We will definitely be returning! Read Less
