Cinderella Nails

Loved this salon. Clean, and very professional staff. It’s a bit pricey but it’s located on Main Street in Manayunk so it makes sense.

This place always does a really nice job. The staff could be a little more talkative and friendly. However if you just want some peace and quiet it’s great. My nails always look great and last a while despite that I become antsy and wind up picking off my polish or gel. They aren’t the cheapest around but you definitely pay for what you get.

I get gel manis and a pedi every two to three weeks in DC and Philly and this is the BEST place I’ve ever been. The prices may seem on the higher end at first, but it’s 10 dollars less if you pay cash and the services provided are impeccable. I’m talking hot stones, hot towels, neck rubs, the whole deal. Also super detail oriented. Very clean and very nice ambiance. Loved it!

Great place. Very affordable but they give you so many extra amenities. That massage at the end was a knock out of the park.

Three of us came into Cinderella on a Friday evening an hour before closing time desperate to get our nails done after a long week. They took us with no hesitation and did a fantastic job with all of our nails. $ 40 for mani and pedi combo is not a bad price, especially with the added massage. I would love it if they added booze into the mix and offered some champagne/​wine while getting pedis done. All the girls seem to know what they’re doing and take their time. I was particular impressed with my manicure looked like gel even though it was not! Last almost two weeks before even chipping a little, very impressive. I will definitely be back!

They have definitely gone downhill. My leg massage during pedi was painful. She had me worried when she was clipping my nails, she wasn’t being careful. I had an eyebrow wax and she never gave me the mirror to view and was hurrying me out of the room. I used to not mind that the prices were a little higher because they had a nice clean place and great service. But the reviewers are right-it’s not the same. It was empty Friday night. I hope they make some changes.

I really am a fan of this nail salon. I love the hot stone and hand massages you get with every nail service. Most of the girls are perfectionist, all of them are super nice and they do a really good job. The place is also super clean. I did not give it 5 stars only because I feel that they are overpriced, especially for their gel manicure service.

Plain and simple, this place just isn’t the same. I’ve been a loyal customer for years, but after tonight, I’m just not sure I will come back. Old owners where are you?!

A little pricier than some other spots in town, but worth it. I always leave with a clean and perfectly painted manicure and pedicure. Large selection of OPI polishes and gel colors. Love this place!

I’ll definitely be coming back! My Boss and I came in for a mani pedi full set and wax. This was one of the cleanest salons I have ever been in. All of the staff was overly accommodating for everything we needed. Nail art was awesome and creative. Worth the drive and we will be back no doubt about it!

Definitely the best nail salon in Manayunk! I got lip wax, gel mani, and pedi done and i LOVE it!
All of the staff are nice and friendly. Ive been to few different places but Cinderella is the cleanest nail salon.
Its complimentary hot stone massage was fabulous and i am definitely coming back here with my girls.
Hands down the best nail service i got!

Plain and simple. the pedicures are to die for. They are similar to the Elizabeth Arden spa pedicures. 10 minute massage including hot stones. really to die for. Reason for my three stars. There is only one technician there that does full sets and fills and there is another technician there that kindof knows how to do a fill. Guess which one I got? Honestly, the worst fill I ever got in my life. It took her almost an hour and a half. I wanted my nails to be slllllliggtly tapered at the end and she gave me the coffin nail which is not complimentary to my hands at all. They were all uneven, and weirdly thick. Once that shape has been created, it’s impossible to get it back to a natural shape without using more acrylic. I was really unhappy, and I probably should have stopped her way in the beginning, but I figured. hey what the heck– just live with it for two weeks. Great pedis though.

So I was reading the reviews on how this place had changed hands, which made me a little apprehensive. It was one of two nail saloons I would recommend in the neighborhood, but it’s pricey and it made me wonder if it was still worth their prices. So I gave it a try and this is what I found out. They’re still produce a really good service. They’re good about getting you in, especially walk-​ins. They still give really great arm/​leg massages with your mani/​pedi and a brief hot stone massage as your nails dry. They’re still a little pricey. For some of the services its not a big difference so if you want the massage, I’d be willing to pay a little extra but some of the stuff it’s just not worth it. Example, pedicure is $ 30 which I find is within a reasonable ballpark plus I get a great massage. My gel manicure was $ 40 which I find really high and can could get done somewhere else much $ 10-​$ 15 cheaper, even with the massage I don’t find it worth it. As a tip, if you pay in cash they offer a decent discount.
Overall, still a solid product, clean and comfortable and very friendly staff, it’s just comes down to what you want to spend your money on.
I had to take one star off since my gel manicure chipped after only one week. For the above average price for the area, I was not happy to have it not last.

Such a cute little nail salon! Very clean. They are so friendly and pamper you from the moment I walked in! I got a mani and pedi package only $ 40 and well worth it. Both came with a nice lotion and hot stone massage; as well as a little back and shoulder massage while my nails were drying :-) great time!
** not good for when you’re in a big rush!

Great customer service but super over priced for Gel Mani ($ 40 +Tax = $ 45 +Tips $ 50). Avg for gel mani runs about $ 30… I guess the complimentary hot stone message and hot towel aren’t much of a complimentary. Paint job is nice I guess, minor complains.

I’ve been in Phila since 2010, and I always end up back at Cinderella Nails. The shop has changed management at least twice now, but the new owners are maintaining the place well. It’s clean and the staff is skilled.
It’s a bit of a hike from So Phil, but I’ll travel for a good mani/​pedi.

PLEASE HELP! What happened to Brian and his mom??? I have been a LOYAL customer for the past two years and I walked in a month ago to find them GONE!
I’ve gotten two manis/​pedis since there and it’s NOT THE SAME! :(When Brian and his mom ran the place, my gel mani would stay on for THREE WEEKS, now it’s barely one. The massages aren’t the same, and they are not a friendly.
I’m so upset. Anyone know what happened???

$ 40 for a mani pedi and a hot stone massage in a clean and friendly salon, you really can’t beat that. I have been coming to Cinderella for the last 7 years and have had a positive experience each and every time.

This is the only place I’ll ever get my nails done. The owners are so sweet as so are the workers. They’ve gone out of their way plenty of times for me and make every experience a good one.
This salon is very clean and relaxing, rather then crazy other crazy salons that you can barely hear the person next to you.

This is the best nail salon in Manayunk. Be sure to make an appointment on the weekends because it can get busy. They have relaxing massaging chairs to start. Pedicures include a hot rock massage and they take their time for $ 30. Better than salons for double the price. Also included is a quick hot rock back massage. Amazing!
