Peter’s Nails

this is the ONLY place in the area I get my nails done! It’s clean, the staff is all so nice and they have a great selection of colors. I’ve seen a couple different people but now I regularly see Rosie, she does an amazing job!

Great place. Reasonable prices, everyone is professional and friendly. One of my favorite nail places in town.

Nicest people and they always do a great job. They are usually pretty busy so make sure to call ahead for an appointment!

I would give this place 10 stars if I could. Beautiful nails, beautiful people. Came in for gel mani and pedi. Everyone was so nice and very professional. Best nails salon in town hands down, perfect job. Thank you Chung and Phong, I’ll be back!

I’m a huge fan of this place. I’ve been about 3 times now and I think I’ve found my nail place for while I’m at school! Consistent, warm, professional and my nails always look great every time. My favorite nail tech is Rosie. She’s super sweet and always offers the student discount.

I started coming to Peter’s about 6 months ago, and I have rarely been disappointed. They do amazing gel manicures and regular pedicures. Most of them remember my name, my usual colors and the way I like them shaped. Some make great conversation while others don’t, but I enjoy the mixes of personalities. Just a word of advise, always ALWAYS make an appointment! They’re always so busy, think ahead!

I spent a few weeks in the Northampton area this summer, and I needed some nail care during that time. This review is for the two amazing people at Peter’s Nails who took care of me.
Sunny — She is the BEST! I needed someone to take care of 3 nails on my right hand that I keep long for playing guitar. She skillfully, quickly and gently removed the old acrylic job I had done elsewhere, and even discussed other options for keeping my nails long and strong. I was concerned about how the acrylic tips and fill would damage my nails, and we decided to try several coats of clear gel instead. Sunny was very knowledgeable, professional, and did a beautiful job shaping and applying the gel. The gel still looked awesome 3+ weeks later when my nails had grown out and it was time to reapply. And the best part is that this option worked perfectly for playing my style of guitar. Thanks for your amazing work, Sunny! Too bad I live on the West Coast, or I’d make this my permanent spot.
Fong — He did an amazing pedicure! I hate the digging in my toes during a pedicure, but Fong was gentle and super talented with the tools. I don’t know how he did it, but it didn’t hurt at all (and pedicures usually hurt a lot for me on my big toes). Fong was friendly, attentive, and the paint job was perfect. Thanks, Fong!
Peter’s Nails is clean, pleasantly decorated, and all of the people I have interacted with there have been lovely and talented. I’d definitely recommend this nail salon.

The owners are fantastic and everyone that works there is so nice! I would not think of going anywhere else. They really get to know their customers and they go above and beyond. We all know that great customer service is hard to get these days but not here! They will treat you so well! They even greet you by name once they know you! Love this place!

Wonderful pedicure by Karen. I walked in on a Wednesday afternoon with no appointment. The owner was gracious to let me know that they were full and it would be at least 30 minutes before they would have a pedicure chair open. I left did some shopping and came back as directed. They had a chair open up within 5 minutes. What a wonderful pedicure. Probably one of my top two ever. I will definitely be back.

Peter’s Nails is the best place in the Hadley area for a manicure/​pedicure. Everyone who works there is so friendly, talkative, and will even make recommendations. I usually find myself wanting to go back twice as often than necessary just because it’s such a great experience!

Love this place. It is very clean, the employees are professional and friendly. My first gel manicure lasted me three weeks without one chip or feeling that it my lift and peel off! Highly recommend this place. It is now my favorite go to nail salon

First time I went to Peter’s I was blown away. My friend brought me for my birthday. I had a gel mani and spa pedi and O. M. G!!! The foot and leg massage was so amazing that as Cheung was finishing it and said «feel better?» My first thought was «God, yes!» And my second was «And I get polish, too!!!» That’s how awesome it was. And the gel mani by Rose was perfect. Lasted over two weeks flawlessly. And the massage chairs are awesome! I will definitely be back!

Made an app thinking I would be paired with a more senior nail tech, but that was not the case at all. I was matched with the tech that had the least experience, and it showed. I started with a regular pedi and all was fine and then it came time for the gel nails. My tech and I were seated next to her boss (presumably the owner?) And she became extremely nervous. After pointing out 4 crooked nails, I just let her do her thing knowing I would get them redone in a week or so. Her boss kept looking over and asking how she was doing, which added a lot of obvious pressure. She told me if I said it was bad she might get fired. I still left a 20% tip, because I know the hard work that goes into the service industry, but I unfortunately will not be back here. Paying $ 55 for a mani/​pedi with 6+ crooked nails is just insane. First time will be the last.

Favorite salon in the area. Best of all, they are consistent. I’ve futzed around with other salons all over western MA but they are the best. All of the manicurists are adept at applying gel Polish and very efficient. The salon is always very clean also. They provide great pedicures too. They are always very busy so I call ahead and they always fit me in. Love them!

I discovered this nail salon years ago and it’s still my favorite. I come in for pedicures and occasional manicures. I tend to get ingrown nails and they always gently and patiently take care of any problems. The place is clean and comfortable and the workers are personable. I might not go in for six months, and when I come back they ask how I’m doing and remember the details of a conversation we had last time I was there. Seriously, it’s almost uncanny. Their real regulars must feel like royalty. At first I gave it just 4 stars because I once had a bad gel manicure, but that one poor experience is more than canceled out by years of great work and fantastic service.

I really wanted to like Peter’s Nails. Unfortunately I had some problems after my pedicure. I took my friend out for a pedicure to thank her for throwing my baby shower. We were chatting away and I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my toe. The nail tech cut all the way down the side of my big toe nail, almost to the bottom. It really hurt! I said «ouch!» and pulled my foot away. The older tech working next to her (one of the owners?) asked what she did and she said I had an ingrown toenail she was cutting out. She asked if I had an ingrown nail and I said I have never had one. First of all, I don’t think that cutting an ingrown nail is the right way to treat it, and second, why didn’t she ask me? I had this pedicure about 6 weeks ago and my toe still hurts!
The salon is nice and clean, with comfortable massage chairs. The nail techs are nice and friendly, they give you a great foot massage, and my nails looked great after. The prices are reasonable, and they offer a student discount. I just can’t recommend them after what they did to my toe!

My update–
I got a gel mani done on Saturday and it is FLAWLESS! It still looks brand new 5 days later. This is going to be my ONLY place for the gel manis.

I am between three and four stars here but bumped to 4 four quality of service.
I agree that it is nice to have your nails done by folks who speak great English, and give loads of time and attention to the customer. They are warm and friendly here, and that allows you to feel welcomed and open. I am not usually chatty (I zone out and just relax), but this time, I talked to someone the WHOLE time I was there. The people are just friendly and sweet.
I had my toes done by a young woman who’d graduated from UMass– she was so great and sweet and absolutely fab with my toes.
Then, I had my OPI mani done by Jong (I think his name was…) who was awesome. He did run his cuticle thingamabob over my pinky a little too long, so it was raw when he started the OPI and that burned. Otherwise, I was very pleased.
I got a French manicure for the toes and nails, and it was very expensive in my opinion (70 bucks). I know it would have been less had I just done a solid color, but I was prepping for a wedding.
The gels lasted for a good week and a half and I only broke one nail. I am VERY hard on my nails, so that they lasted this long is a huge shock to me. I will return to Peter’s nails, but not sure I want to pay so much! Nonetheless, the fees are worth the service.

I received a mani-​pedi here before and was very happy with the way my nails came out! Smooth, flawless application. They have a nice selection of nail polish and their prices are very reasonable (especially if you are a student, holla). They did a great job at the nail art I wanted too (a flower, in case you were wondering).
The staff is also very friendly. I’m accustomed to very gossipy nail technicians where I’m from (I’m too broke to afford anywhere good in Boston). The amount of awkward eavesdropping I’ve endured as the women would talk about their customers in their native tongues (like hello, I can understand you. Vietnamese speaker over here. Yeah, hi.) is ridiculous. But the people here are very professional! If you live or go to school in the area, give this place a go!

Great place for a manicure! They have a nice selection of OPI, Essie, and China Glaze nail polish. The staff do a great job and are very nice.
My manicurist was named Jong (I think). He’s really friendly and took great care of my nails. I got a gel manicure and my nails look amazing. I will come to this salon every time I am in town!
