New Main Street Nail Salon Says So Far, So Good

Vogue Salon, which has been celebrating its Grand Opening for the past two months, says nail salon competition in Ramsey has not put a damper on business

As of about two months ago, Main Street is one nail salon richer. Vogue Nail Salon, located at 39 East Main, is celebrating its grand opening through the end of the month.

The owner, Jenne Hong, said this week that business, so far, has been good.

The Fort Lee resident said she has a lot of experience in the industry. For 15 years, she owned and operated a Chinese Spa in Chatham. She said after closing her doors there last year, she was looking to open a smaller salon a bit closer to home.

“I’ve always liked this town,” she said of why she chose to move her business to Ramsey. “It’s cozy, has nice people and is a good neighborhood. I’ve always liked the Main Street feel here.”

Hong says her business plan is simple – she uses high quality products and charges reasonable prices.

Still, she said she did not realize before moving in just how many nail and other salons were open in Ramsey.

“I didn’t really count the number of salons here until after I moved in,” she said. “That’s when I realized, ‘wow, there are a lot of others.’”

But, Hong said the competition has been good for business.

“As long as you give people a good experience, they will come back,” she said. “After 15 years of experience, I know how to give customers good service.”  For example, she said she uses organic products, Vitamin E oils and high quality hand creams with all of her clients.

"And business has been very good. I'm very lucky."

Vogue offers manicures, pedicures, facials and chair massages. An ongoing Grand Opening special, $25 color gel nails, is running this month. The salon takes both walk-in customers and those with reservations.
