The best spray tan!! I came here from out of town for a spray tan the week of my wedding. I was…read moresuper nervous because I didn't have the chance to do a trial beforehand, but I had had spray tans at other salons. Maria did an incredible job! I got the express tan on Wednesday night and showered 3 hours later to control the color. It stayed beautifully until my Saturday wedding! I'm so happy I trusted sugar for my tan, and they were so kind and willing to do touch-ups of it wasn't absolutely perfect. My biggest fear was streaky hands for a wedding (a lot of ring/hand photos) but they did a tremendous job. Highly recommend for everyone but especially the brides!

But she works quickly, makes it as comfortable as possible, and walks you through the process so you're not just gripping the table in silence. I have sensitive skin and this is one of the few places that doesn't leave me irritated for days. Everything she uses is all natural, and my skin handles it well. She also offers spray tans if that's your thing. The bathrooms are actually clean. Not "we wiped the counter real quick." Clean. Complimentary tampons and wipes are stocked, which tells me she's thinking about her clients beyond the appointment. There's free Jolly Ranchers and gum in the waiting area. A little sugar before the sugar. Booking online is easy. There's plenty of parking in the back. I've been coming for years and I still drive from Ventura. That's not casual loyalty; it's because she's that good.

As a man, I have always been nervous, a bit embarrassed and struggled with the abundance of body hair I deal with. Star put me at ease with great education, patience, and laughter. Her bedside manner is wonderful. Prior to meeting Star, I had only been waxed once and it was a terrible experience at a men's salon in Austin, TX. That was 6 years ago. After my experience with Star, not only was it totally and completely painless, but she is so cool, kind and professional, that I can't wait for it to grow back so that i can schedule my next appointment.

Disappointing Service Despite Good Work - Will Not Return I…read morerecently visited ocean nails hoping for a relaxing pampering session, but unfortunately, the customer service I received was incredibly disheartening from the moment I walked in. I asked for an acrylic set for my toes and a pedicure, a service I routinely enjoy and am fully aware of the cost for. Upon arrival, I was met with rudeness and questioned about my choice of service, with the nail technician repeatedly asking if I was "sure" because it was "a lot of money." This was incredibly off-putting and made me feel judged, as if they assumed I couldn't afford a service I genuinely enjoy and habitually get. It wasn't until I was on the phone with my boyfriend, expressing my frustration about being treated as though I couldn't pay, that their attitude subtly shifted. The pedicure felt rushed, and despite my interest in adding on premium services, none were offered. I wanted to treat myself to more, but the initial unwelcoming vibe and the speed of the service made me feel like an inconvenience. While I can genuinely say the actual nail work was well done, the overall experience was severely overshadowed by the poor customer service and unprofessional treatment. It's a shame, because I would have been a returning client and would have gladly spent more on additional services if I had felt welcomed and respected. Given the unfortunate political affiliations displayed in the salon, combined with the poor treatment, I definitely will not be returning. There are plenty of other salons where customers are treated with dignity regardless of their chosen services or perceived spending limit.
