Nail Salons near Carteret

“As a guy, it's a bit awkward to go in and get a manicure and pedicure done. These guys are amazing at this job, and never made me feel awkward about it at all. They were super nice and do a wonderful job. I adore going in, and make sure to come over every few months to get my nails done again. I recommend anyone and everyone should go.“

“I’ve only started recently going here after trying multiple nail salons (still being new to the area) I wish I remembered my nail techs name (sorry) but she ALWAYS does an excellent job. They also provide the option of threading or wax for eyebrows. I chose wax and the mini massage she gives afterwards is so simple but very relaxing. The service is definitely a 10 bet clean shop and all employees are very welcoming and professional. I do recommend booking an appointment opposed to walking in. Will be returning
Update: my nail techs name is Christina. As I am sure they’re all great there, I highly recommend her“

“Lavender Salon is hands down the best hair salon I’ve ever had the pleasure of visiting. After years of searching for the perfect gray coverage, I finally found my holy grail at Lavender. Their use of top-of-the-line organic products not only ensured my hair's health but also delivered exceptional results.

From the moment I walked in, I was enveloped in luxury. The ambiance was serene, and the staff were incredibly attentive. My stylist took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and executed it flawlessly.

Not only did I leave with gorgeous, vibrant hair, but I also left feeling pampered and rejuvenated. Lavender Salon isn’t just a salon; it’s an experience. I can’t recommend it enough to anyone in search of top-notch service and results.“

“So there are two listings for the same salon. I will be duplicating this review for the other listing since there are two.
This listing and reviews are what brought me to Waves.
I needed a haircut badly. My hair had many dead ends and was frizzing and tangling easily.
After seeing whose name came up the most I went to Noreen for my cut and style.
Booking the appointment was so easy. I made the appointment online which was great for me. It was also a day they were closed so I didn’t have to worry about waiting for them to open and forgetting to call. I can always book it whenever. And the text/email reminders were so helpful.
I was worried about parking but that turned out to be a nonissue. The area of Cranford is very nice but isn’t as busy as the downtown area. It is street parking. But not metered. And I found a spot right out front in the shade! It is currently an excessive heat watch so shade is helpful. And I mean it was right out front and it was an end spot so I didn’t even have to parallel park.
I got there a little early. Checked in and everyone was very nice. They made sure I didn’t park in the back lot which is for residents. So helpful.
I met Noreen and she was so very nice.
I got my hair washed by Fiona and she was also very nice. Easy to chat with. The chair and sink were very comfortable. Sometimes the sinks hurt my neck but this was not an issue. It was very relaxing.
Then Noreen and I talked about what I wanted done with my hair. She made extra sure that I was comfortable with the length of my hair and my new curtain bangs and face frame. Did exactly what I wanted and did it amazingly!
Sometimes stylists want to “thin” out my thick hair or give me layers but I prefer not to get that done. Noreen did not do this which I appreciated. She really was attentive. Again she also was so easy to talk to. So friendly.
She knew I was going out that night and styled my hair wonderfully. Even told me how to freshen it up later and how to recreate the look on my own.
I was curious about the MagicShield keratin treatment and she told me everything about it! Not only the price but how long it would take, four hours, which is important information! Informed on everything. It was very helpful.
Finally I’ll just comment on the salon itself. It’s pretty large but not crowded which is nice. Plenty of space between stylists so you’re not crammed in. It looks very sleek. Plenty of light. A nice sitting area. I really do love how open it was. It was also clean and updated. Lots of natural light as well.
There was no surprise charges and they even had Apple Pay available. The receptionist knew who washed my hair and everything I had done. I was able to leave a tip in an envelope with her so I didn’t have to find or interrupt anyone.
So to sum it up I will be going back and I do highly suggest this salon.

Requested style: I wanted a significant amount of hairs cut and a curtain bang that flowed into a face frame.

Hair type: Very long hair to a tad longer than shoulder length. Very thick and takes longer to cut and is harder to cut well. Noreen cut it amazingly well.

Stylist: Noreen was amazing and so very nice. Was able to handle my thick hair.“

“I've had the best experience here with Jamie for both manis and pedis! Not only does she pay great attention to design details (she's super talented btw), but she also makes sure you like it as she goes. I always feel pampered whenever I come to Iconic Nails studio. The vibe is relaxing too and pricing is good.“

The nail artists pay close attention to detail and give you the result that you want. The owner is also very flexible when it comes to scheduling appointments. Overall, I had a comfortable and pleasant experience at this nail salon. I would recommended it 10/10 for anyone in Union County!“

“Noemi and Erika did a fantastic job stopping my hair! They're not just trying to sell products; they want to educate their clients and really improve your hair's health. They took the time to explain each step they took and sent me home with a clear game plan to maintain and improve my hair. Loved visiting Utopia! Will go again next chance I get.“
