    This is after my "pedicure" you can see how she didn't scrub the dry areas on my feet.
    Hanna M.

    Came in for pedicure. My toe nails were cut so short, my big toes were stabbed and cut down to the skin. She didn't even file my nails. She didn't scrub off the dry areas on my feet, no massage, no oil, not even lotion. First time here and NEVER coming back again.

    Highly recommend this salon. Annie was great- very thorough, taking her time to do an excellent job. Super friendly and comfortable salon. I got fake nails for my engagement party and love them. It's been three weeks and they are still going strong! Attaching photos from when I first got them! Thank you Annie!

    I went to American Nails today and had made an appointment the same day. The owner was very accommodating and did an AMAZING job on my nails! I've never had dip before, so thought I'd try it. I LOVE it! I'll definitely be back to refresh my dip nails and get a pedicure.

    American Nails is wonderful! It's my go-to in the area. I've done acrylic nails and gel nails there and loved them both. Annie and Lee are both very kind & great at what they do. Really reasonable pricing and great quality.

    Annie is such a sweet lady! She does nails so fast and she really does them well! She loves doing nails and loves to play with colors when she can! She takes really good care of you. She waxes my eyebrows well and even puts eyebrow gel for me too. Shes done my nails since March and ever since she has become a nice friend! She's a hard worker and she will work hard to give you the look you want. She never pushes you to do more things that you don't want you do like some places. She'll always try to make some time for you! I come for her great work and her hospitality!

    I've been coming to Annie for over five years. And now with gas prices higher and living outside the area I still make a special trip to American Nails because of Annie! She truly cares and does a great and efficient job! I highly recommend!

    This small salon is the best one I've found in the area. It's friendly, clean and reasonable, and the work is always excellent.

    It is a more pricier than most places, but I come here to pamper myself…read more Yes the recliner chairs and bowls are a controversial choice, but I do actually prefer these because it's easier to sanitize, even if a salon is using a massage chair and plastic wrap. I don't really use the massage chair at pedicures. The homemade scrubs they do are what really brings it home. Most places don't really do that anymore, so it's one of the highlights, and reminds of Jaydn Taylor in Alameda back in the days. They are also detailed in what they do and the vibes are really relaxing. I just wish they had a Walnut Creek location, but we talked about how expensive rent was there and how they would need to make the prices higher there.

Both times, my friends didn't have issues looking for parking, so this is a plus. The first time we came, we had lunch around the area and asked if they can accommodate us. We stuck gold, when they said they have time for us after our brunch. I came back again this weekend, but we scheduled an appointment with them this time. Both times, the technician was ready for us and were very welcoming. The place is pretty clean and and relaxing, as I found it surprising that you aren't overpowered by the smell of nail polish. Huge bonus for that! My friends and I did all get a manicure and pedicure. Joy ended up being my technician and gave me some suggestions on what color nails I should do, since I wanted to match my outfit (if you know me you know me). Joy is actually a great tech, she's very patient and didn't rush the process. Joy sparked joy for me when she recommended the scrub. It wasn't just any scrub, it was a coffee scrub. I love the smell of coffee and this literally made my weekend. My feet felt so amazing afterwards and my nails looked so cute! My friends and I will definitely be back here the next time we in the area. And a special shoutout to Joy again for making my weekend perfect!
