I was really bad at jumping around for my pedicures. I get one very stubborn, obnoxious,painful ingrown that rarely gets done well. Then, i I found Nancy. She is amazing!! She is gentle, professional and great at her job. I have been loyal to her for a while bow and never use anyone else. The place is clean and sterile. Check it out. read more

Absolute Beauty Salon - Pedicure time - Hair Salons Near Me - Sacramento, California

I keep meaning to leave another review for bam/absolute beauty but keep forgetting. I love this salon. Currently rocking a 3 week old gel pedicure that has not chipped or budged! Will always recommend this salon and keep returning time and time again. Thank you read more

I don't usually leave negative reviews, but I've been thinking about this experience for a while and felt it was important to share. I visited on March 13 as a walk-in. First, I want to say the ambience of the salon is beautiful. It's quiet, relaxing, organized, and I felt welcomed when I walked in. However, my experience during the service was concerning. I was initially helped by a male technician whose name I didn't catch. Before starting, he was scraping the table with what looked like a blade tool rather than properly sanitizing it, and he did not wash his hands afterward. His hands also appeared to have some kind of dye or residue on them. As someone with a background in cosmetology, this stood out to me. I had a previous builder gel set with only small remnants left. Instead of soaking or properly filing it down, he used an acrylic tip to pry the remaining product off. This was painful and can be damaging to the nail bed. I would have had no issue waiting for a proper soak-off, so I'm not sure why that method was used. I was then switched to a female technician who completed my service. She was kind and had great customer service, and I appreciated her efforts to be gentle after I told her my nail beds were sensitive. Unfortunately, the cuticle work resulted in multiple cuts. Six out of my ten fingers were cut and bleeding. At a certain point during the service, I found myself constantly looking at the clock and paying attention to where I was in the process because I was in so much pain and just wanted to get out of the chair. That is not something I've ever experienced before when getting my nails done. After leaving, my hands were in significant pain for several days. Even basic tasks like driving, typing, or doing dishes were uncomfortable. I ultimately had to see a doctor due to irritation around my cuticles and was given antibacterial ointment. This is the first time I have ever had to seek medical care after a manicure or pedicure, which was very concerning to me. Now, even after healing, I can still see the scarring And marks around my cuticles from the cuts. I usually receive a lot of compliments on my nails, even when I get something simple, but now when I look at my nails all I can see are the scabs and scarring from the cuts. it honestly makes me not want to show my nails at all, which is disappointing because i'm getting my nails done is something I truly enjoy. In terms of the final result, I did like the shape initially, although the edges were very sharp. However, within a few hours, I noticed issues with the quality. There was product chipping from underneath the acrylic, almost like excess polish left under the nail, and the acrylic itself began to chip as well. The polish also appeared uneven on some nails. Another note for first-time clients: there is no visible pricing board, but pamphlets are available near the front, so I recommend grabbing one to review pricing beforehand. I paid about $65 for the set and tipped 20% because I understand industry standards and the technician was kind. However, the overall experience felt rushed and transactional, and being passed between technicians was not something I enjoyed. I also noticed a difference in how the male technician interacted with another client who came in after me. He was much more engaged and conversational with her, which made my experience feel less welcoming in comparison. This experience ultimately solidified my decision to return to my private nail technician, even though they are over three hours away. I would rather pay more and travel farther for quality work and a safe experience than risk going through this again, especially after needing medical attention. I recently moved to Sacramento and have been trying different salons, but this experience unfortunately left a lasting impression. I've been getting my nails done for over 10 years and have a background in cosmetology, and I've never experienced this level of pain or injury during a service. I really wanted to support this small local business, but due to the pain, nail damage, and overall experience, I would not return. read more

I have been going to Absolute Beauty for about a year now and they are truly an amazing one stop shop: mani, pedi, eyebrow wax, hair dye and hair cut I've done them all! They have amazing customer service and they are super thorough while also being quick! Everyone there is super nice especially Theresa, Linda, and Krystal! I typically get a French tip and it's beautiful very single time and they all add their own little touch with a cute flower! Thank you Absolute Beauty for all my beauty needs! I'll see you soon! Trust me I 100% recommend this place! 5 Stars! read more

Worst nail set I ever had, never again .. On top of that they don't even understand what they did wrong and they don't even offer me a discount for that They just look at me like I was the crazy person for telling them I don't think this look good The worst experience ever! read more

I have been going to this salon for over a year for manicures and pedicures. Both services are fantastically performed on a regular basis, but I am writing about exceptional service I received from Amy (hope I spelled her name right) today. I could bore you with the details but suffice it to say she was professional, thorough and did an amazing job. The salon overall is bright, welcoming and the staff is friendly. I would highly recommend! read more

I made an appointment on a Sunday, which I thought was awesome that they were open and had availability, but after being there for five minutes, I see why they had availability. The gentleman was so rude. While I was sitting down explaining to the lady that I just needed my toenails painted and a full set, he jumped up out of the seat, very agitated, came next to me, saying, "You said you wanted a pedicure and a full set, and now you're changing your mind." I told him I just had a pedicure last week and they messed up the color. I just need a new color. He told the lady not to do it and for me to leave. I truly hope the owner sees this. I do have a video of his behavior. I totally forgot to mention that I had my nine-year-old grandson with me read more

I don't know about yall, but I go to the salon to get pampered and relax. Instead, my friend gets bullied. These women working here were talking crap about and laughing about it. Be careful what you say. Some people may speak the same language. I called the salon and told them they need to apologize to her now!! They denied all of it. Because appearance??? Really???!. It's is rude and hurtful. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it at all keep your mouth shut. Shame on you ladies!! read more

They're nice people and the shop is clean but they don't specialize in white tips (pedicures and full sets). For my full set the guy used a white tip and didn't even ask how I wanted them. I like my nails short so by doing that instead of doing the white tip by freehand, 75% of my entire nail was white. It looked crazy. And I wanted a sunflower. It was messy and rushed. For the pedicure I had to keep asking for the line to be thin. I asked 5 times, even the lady beside me started laughing because why do I have to keep saying it. Still ended up with a thick line. I won't be back. read more

My 15 year old daughter came here to get her nails done for homecoming. She came with a friend her age and not an adult so I'm pretty sure they took advantage of her.

Love, Love, Love this place... I've been coming here for a few years now and absolutely love everyone here. Everyone is kind and polite and value you as a client. If your disappointed (rare) they will make it right. The Pedi's are always amazing which is a plus! The decor and chairs are all newly updated which gives a clean spacious look. On a side note... have patience. Just like with any appointment they can run behind because they take their time with you to ensure a great experience and aim for perfection. If you are in a hurry and expect to be get in and get out with low quality work this is not the place for you. Always advise to call ahead for an appointment because they have a ton of regulars. read more

Lady was very nice and complimentary, however I got blonde highlights when I wanted light brown highlights, and I said i wanted my whole head a lighter brown and I only got the highlights on my semi-dark brown hair. She did not tell me what she was doing as she did it and charged me 280$ for simple highlights. I was told if I wanted to change it it would cost another $500. She was very insistent I leave a great review and tell all my friends. Unfortunately we were both left disappointed but I am now $300 out with hair I don't like. read more

Lynn is the mail so impressive, she does excellent job at details for your nails. She takes her time and takes pride in her art of her work.

The atmosphere here is relaxing as well as enjoyable, the personnel laugh and seems to enjoy their trade. If you haven't been to this mail & spa I would suggest you try it! read more
