    Halloween set
    Hope H.

    American Nails is my go to spot. And Jennifer is my go to girl, yet everyone is awesome. Manicures and pedicures on point. I usually go simple but Jennifer will get your designs just how you want them. Full sets, any length, they've got you. Good vibes, relaxing, affordable.

    Go see Nina

    Great service, never a chip or crack in my dipped nails by Nina. Relaxing vibe like all of the ladies their actually like each other and want to be there. Been coming regularly for over a year. Quick and great quality. My favorite place to relax

    American nails is my favorite place to go to pamper myself and get my nails done. Jennifer has done my nails countless times, and not only is she quick and amazing at her art, she has the sweetest personality, and it's always a pleasure to work with. All of the girls at American nails are very kind and they always greet you when you walk in. The salon is clean, and the decor is super cute too!

    Nina does the best pedicures and nail sets. I've been a loyal client of her's for a couple of years. Not only is she an incredibly talented tech, she is a kind and genuine person. I'll continue giving her my business and recommending her to everyone!

    This place was so lovely! I called in for a walk in and they got me in within 25 minutes! Tim did my nails and he was so nice and funny! It was my first time getting acrylic nails and he did such a great job! I would 100% recommend this place to any of ya'll In the Arden area!

    I go back and forth between acrylics and gel- Today I got a glittery gold gel manicure from one of my favorite nail techs ever (Emily) and I can't stop staring at it... It's beautiful! Christine did the matching color on my toes and her pedicures are always so relaxing, it's hard not to fall asleep in the chair. I am so glad I started coming here!

    If you are looking for a clean and relaxing day come to American Nails in Sacramento. These women are the nicest professional ladies I have been too in this area. My girl Christine does the BEST gel manicures and pedicures I have ever had. Don't wait and call for an appointment today!!!

    Followed my long time nail technician from another salon to this cute and stylish salon. They have about a thousand colors to choose from in gel and dip. They even recently got glow in the dark powder! They are fast and friendly! 10/10 would recommend!

    Christine is the BEST. This is my new go-to nail salon!!! Super pretty, clean, and kind staff. 100/10 recommend!

    What I wanted
    Mikayla P.

    Went in on a Thursday for a new full set. I showed the nail tech a picture on my phone of a pink & white ombré. I also asked for "coffin". Nail tech used only pink from the pink & white gel, and said that's how it's done, "it's not white, it's clear". It looks NOTHING like the picture I showed. Sunday, I notice the gel is bubbling, on every single nail, so I call and ask if I can come in to have that fixed, they tell me to come in to be assessed. I go in, nail tech tells me "that's just what happens when you use the pink gel only instead of a colored polish" and I said "but I didn't ask for this, I showed you the original photo and this is what you decided to do.." She tells me it'll be $10 charge (after already paying $45 and tipping $10, making it $55) to PAINT OVER the pink gel with a color.. and then I was pressured to leave a tip as well... What I left with.... Still not coffin. It's upsetting because just a few years ago I used to come to this salon with my friend and Tram always did an AMAZING JOB. But anyone else... we're similar results.

    I've been seeing Nina for nearly 10 years and can't say enough good things about her and her work. You would be hard pressed to find a better nail artist anywhere let alone in Sacramento. Her attention to detail and compassion make me a regular and one that had followed her from salon to salon. Overall, American Nails has the best nail artists around. They have put together a team that is the best in the business. Highly recommend!

    Back to American Nails!! New Nail Tech is named Jennifer!! They just remodeled got all new stuff and it looks amazing!!
    Laina N.

    All new remodeled!! New chairs and all!! My nail tech is Jennifer she is amazing!! Ann still does the best pedicure!! Definitely recommend them and thankful to be going to one nail shop for all my needs again!!

    Just left and let me tell you Lana did NOT disappoint honey! I absolutely love my nails!…read more She took her time and made sure throughout the process that I liked my nails. I let her do her thing on how the hearts are placed but she did let me pick multiple colors without breaking my pockets! Parking is hard to find since they are in a busy strip mall. But totally worth it. I made an appointment just in case and while they weren't packed they had a steady rush. I will definitely be back, I think I'll stick with Lana though! Hope this helps

    On Monday I went to get my chin waxed and had the worst experience the rest of the week. I've…read moregotten my chin waxed here once before, so I went again. During the wax I noticed it being a little warm but nothing women can't handle. The first pull was very rough and aggressive to the point where I made a noise out loud. Once done, I noticed my chin stinging, but I brushed it off. As the night went on I noticed that it might be a possibility that my skin was burnt. I put frozen aloe Vera plant on it all night, but still woke up to burn marks on my chin. I called the shop multiple times informing them of my problems and they informed me I must speak to a manager but he was never there. They did not care that they burned me, never asked for contact information so that the manager could call me, nor did they even apologize or offer any solutions. I paid my money and tipped and got nothing but a run around and no communication from the manager. If you go here just know they only care about your money, not you. Extremely let down, won't go back, if I could give them 0 stars I would. Pictures included

We arrived at around 2 pm, it got a little busier after I had to come back to get my nails fixed. The staff was very kind and we had some nice conversations. Environment was spacious and there was no wait time. Amy did gel nails for my friend and Henry did her gel pedicure. She was happy with the results and they did a great job! Speed and quality gets thumbs up for them. My experience was entirely different. Vy did my gel manicure and I asked if she could sand down my vertical ridges on my nails. She said there's nothing I can do but the gel would cover it anyways. Interesting... because that wasn't my experience with other nail techs. I noticed she applied a few coats but the edges were noticeably messy. When she started applying lotion to my hands, I realized she was finished but the results were unacceptable. I showed my friend sitting next to me and she didn't have the guts to tell me until we left. Vy noticed I wasn't happy after I asked her to take a look at the edge of my nails. There was so many areas of missing paint and she began using the drill to sand down the top coat. After that she tried to fix it by repainting another coat over it. I felt terrible even bringing it up so I kept apologizing and thanking her for the extra work. However, her response was a bit concerning: she said, "It's okay, I probably couldn't see." All of my nails? That definitely made me wonder why I would ever come back here. By the time my nails were done with Vy, my friend's gel pedicure and gel manicure were complete. It took about an hour for both of us. After we leave, I see my nails in broad daylight and it magnifies the flaws even more. I sent a photo to my step-sister who owns a nail salon and she told me to go back and have them fixed because it looked terrible. I called them back and Annie picked up the phone. Annie said I could text the photo to them and told me they'd fix it. I come back 30 minutes later and get another nail tech by the name of Andy. Andy looked my nails and had no words, he just apologized. He seated me right away and said they'd do another color for me no problem. At this point I didn't want gel because I didn't want to ever have to come back to this salon again. I was mortified. I asked them to remove the gel and just give me a clear coat but they insisted gel - I had to tell them 3 times I didn't want it. I told him it was my first time here but the difference with Andy was: he delivered high quality work and had a great attitude to be resolving my issues. 10 years of experience and I felt like he actually cared. The ridges on my nails I mentioned to Vy were addressed immediately without me even having to ask. Andy used the drill and sanded it down and also filed my nails. All of these little steps were missed the first time. My family owns a couple of nail salons in the east coast. I can't believe I had to text them these photos. The worst part was I felt ashamed for even having to call the store to complain and come back. Despite my first results, they handled the problem with grace and the customer service of Annie and Andy was appreciated. I basically paid for gel manicure plus tip to get my gel polish removed. There was no way I'd be seen in public like that. Thank you for actually caring about the satisfaction of your customers. Not all nail techs deliver the same quality!
