2025-12-20I’ve been going to Friendly Nails for a few years now; everyone always makes me feel so welcome and do a great job with my nails!
Normani
2025-10-16Nice staff but had a terrible experience with the nails I got a gel x set and she used so much glue to the point it was underneath my entire finger also the size, length, and design is not what I asked for the next day I had to go to a whole different nail place and have these nails removed and changed

2024-07-21I love Friendly Nails! First of all, the prices are very reasonable. The nail technicians are also knowledgeable and experienced. Kimvi did my nails, and she was fast, thorough, and knowledgeable. But what truthfully solidifies for me the quality of their work, is that, two days after my appointment, I got my thumb stuck in a car door. My thumb bruised, bled, and swelled. But my french tip STILL looks immaculate. No cracks, no chips, no damage to the manicure. My thumb took a beating, and the nail is still a work of art. This is why I love Friendly Nails and will be returning to get my nails redone next time I need a manicure - the work speaks for itself. Thank you so much! 💅 ♥️

2019-10-05I was in Worcester for a conference and found time at the end of my day so I called to check availability; they said to come over. Easy walk from Hilton hotel. The nail technician gave a great pedicure and the other woman in the shop added a little design on each big toe for me. Reasonably priced, clean salon. Very nice ladies!! I would definitely go back again.
