    Terrible nails
    Naomi H.

    Terrible set of new gel-x nails that were supposed to be fully square. Painted like a kid, didn't fix when asked multiple times and told I was wrong. How with a new set do you think using gel filler to fix would be okay. Still had to pay full price. Never go again

    First time appointment today. From my first phone until the end of my appointment was an absolute wonderful experience. I had the new salon owner Sherry do my nails and toes. She was very personable and just super sweet. The salon was nice and clean and calm. I would highly recommend this nail salon.

    Savvy pedicure

    I loved everything about my first visit and will definitely be back. The chairs were very comfortable, loved the neck pillow and cute coffee cup. The pedicure was very reasonably priced and Stella did a great job. The atmosphere was also very nice and cozy.

    Always amazing! Comfy salon with amazing staff and wonderful owners! I have never had a bad experience there and always love the outcome of my nails! Cynthia always knocks it out of the park!!!

    When you walk in there's a sign that says something along the lines of enter as strangers and leave as friends. And that's exactly the vibe this salon gives. Everyone is super friendly, the place is nice, clean, and I had great conversation with my manicurist. However, my manicurist definitely lacked experience. I got a dip manicure and my nails were left bumpy and thick. That was pretty frustrating but I figured my overall experience was fine, so I wouldn't leave a review. Then, four days after getting my nails done, they start to chip. And I don't mean small chips that are not really noticeable, I mean half my nail. Whenever I get dip it typically lasts 3 weeks so I was very upset that they didn't even last a week. Which is why I'm sharing my experience. By the time I hit 7 days, two nails were completely off and others were chipped as well. It's very disappointing to spend so much money on a manicure and have it not only turn out badly but have it chip off super quickly. By day 10, all my nails but 3 have chipped pretty drastically. I will not be returning nor would I recommend getting dip.

    Happy Daughter!!

    As a working mom who has three young daughters, I don't have a lot of free time to dote on myself. I discovered Be Polished when I moved close by and was resistant to go at first as I thought it looked much too nice to be affordable. Thankfully, I was wrong. The prices for mani/pedis are comparable to those other salons on Orange between 8th and 9th and yet the experience couldn't be any more different. Lynn and her team strive to make you feel special and cared for from the moment you walk through the door. They offer you a warm neck pillow and a beverage of your choice and take time for your service whether it is a simple polish change or a full gel manicure. If you make an appointment, you can actually get in at the time that you have booked as opposed to other places that still make you wait (so frustrating). My girls LOVE coming with me to Be Polished to get their fingers and toes painted and the manicurists know them personally now and treat them equally as special as they treat me. As a local of Coronado since 1979, this is one of my favorite places in town and can't recommend it enough for both visitors and locals alike.

Being almost eight months pregnant, getting a Brazilian required extra care and patience, as I needed to take a few breaks due to discomfort/pain. Ann was very understanding and accommodating, which made a significant difference. She also made the experience much less painful than expected. Her technique is smooth, precise, and clearly demonstrates her expertise. It's evident that she takes pride in her work and knows exactly what she's doing. In addition to her professionalism, Ann has a warm and welcoming demeanor that makes you feel comfortable right away. I was so impressed that I went ahead and booked my next two appointments with her before my due date. As someone new to San Diego, I can confidently say I've found my go-to wax specialist.

Azure is one of those rare people who is just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside. She made me feel completely comfortable from the moment I walked in, took the time to assess my skin, and explained everything she was doing throughout the treatment. My skin looks brilliant, radiant, refreshed, and healthier than it has in a long time (early 40s takes its toll!) One of the biggest wins was that she was able to remove a ton of stubborn blackheads that had been bothering me, and my skin feels so much smoother because of it. She also gave me thoughtful, personalized recommendations for my skincare routine going forward without ever making me feel pressured to buy products. The space itself is clean, modern, calming, and with a beautiful view overlooking Balboa Park, which made the entire experience feel even more relaxing. If you're looking for an esthetician who is knowledgeable, genuinely caring, and delivers amazing results, I highly recommend booking with Azure. I'll absolutely be back and will be recommending her to my friends and family!

I used to wax with regular wax and one time I tried hard wax and had a really bad reaction. I had heard of sugaring, but had never tried it. I live in Bankers Hill and I saw there was a sugaring studio called La Di Da Sugaring. I made an appointment to give it a shot and I absolutely loved it and would never go back to any other kind of wax. I used to get ingrown hair with regular waxing and since starting sugaring, I have never had any ingrown hairs or red bumps. I now recommend sugaring to everyone. This review is for Isabella. Isabella is detailed-oriented, super kind, and I love our chats when I visit. Thank you, Isabella, for making my visits comfortable and welcoming. No complaints about this studio. The only thing I would mention is that parking is hard to find, so if you live close by you should walk there.
