A Note from Jenny
I've been doing nails since 1999.
— and I still love it.
When you book here, you book with me. Not "a tech." Not a rotation. Me. I run this whole salon by myself, and that's on purpose — it's the only way I know how to do consistent work.
My specialty is acrylic. I've been told my sets are "flawlessly shaped and beautifully finished" — that's nice, but really it's just twenty-five years of doing the same thing carefully. I do nail art, gel, pedicures too. Whatever you want, just bring a picture.
Most of my clients have been coming to me for years. Some are models, some are YouTubers, most are just neighbors from Journal Square. We talk like friends. Then I do your nails properly.

"Jenny is incredible. She's quick, but precise — definitely takes pride in her work. My acrylics last three weeks no lift, every time."

"Hidden gem off the PATH. Talking to Jenny feels like talking to a friend, not a technician. I drive over from Hoboken just for her."
