Nail Q

Tucked into Lake Ridge Plaza in Valley Cottage, Nail Q is a bright, spacious sanctuary where long-term clientele have been returning for up to 14 years. The salon stands out for its attentive technicians—particularly Mindy, Patricia, and Jennifer—who foster a spa-like atmosphere with relaxing background music and ample space between stations. While the salon excels in gel manicures that last 3+ weeks without chipping, their pedicure services receive especially high praise for thoroughness. The welcoming, family-like environment and consistent quality have made it a destination worth traveling for, with some clients even scheduling their college visits around nail appointments.
