went in and got the builder nail with a French tip. absolutely perfect! Super pretty and clean lines. This is my new fav local shop!

I stopped in for a quick gel mani before heading out of town and I was taken care of immediately! Friendly service, great mani, reasonable pricing. Would return if I lived in town! read more

Great service and quality. Good massage. Good quality. I was happy with the time it took and the price. They were polite.

I went here to have my acrylic nails removed. She drilled all of the nails off in their entirety. No soaking or anything; just drill. In the process of drilling them she drilled my natural nails as well. Parts of my nails are nearly drilled to the skin and are see-through. Several are splitting lengthwise and are painful. Do not go here. read more

I have difficulty with overgrown toenails and they always do a great job with my feet. They are very accommodating and easy to get in.

Called ahead and got an appointment within an hour. Just had a simple pedicure with paint. They did a beautiful job. Will be back.

I loved this place, I did my nails and got a fill, and let me tell you, my nails lasted soo long, and I love the people there they are so sweet. The prices are average but I really like coming here they take me quickly to. You should def come! read more

Came in here on a Saturday afternoon with my boyfriend. There was ONE client present. We asked for two pedicures. The person who greeted us told us they were really busy and we would have to come back after 5pm. Again, there was only ONE person getting her nails done, and all of the pedicure chairs were empty. If they were short staffed, I would have been fine being told that, but telling us they were too busy to give us pedicures was bizarre. Not sure why this happened, but we will be going somewhere else in the future. read more

Well the other negative reviews are so true. The gal that did my nails shredded the side skin of almost every toe. Also they were cut extremely short and the gel was not painted well. 100% not worth the $50 I paid. I came home and smeared every toe with Neosporin in hopes to avoid any infection since they burn! The kids mani/pedi for $38 was fine and they didn't shred her apart. The new location is super cute and you can see black hill from the window. I likely would not recommend this place. I also don't think the tools are autoclaved but rather soaked in solution which I am not keen on. read more

C Nails - Torn skin if you look at the smaller toes have red splotches too. Also cut extremely short. - Nail Salons Near Me - Baywood-Los Osos, California

C nails does a beautiful job at polish jobs for both mani's and pedi's however do not get acrylics here. It's easy to get an appointment and they take good care of you but they don't have the skills for acrylics. It was an expensive mistake. read more

The service and people here are so wonderful. The salon has a really welcoming atmosphere. I've gone in a few times just on a walk-in basis. They have relaxing massage chairs to sit in while you get pedicures, which I highly recommend. read more

I have been to C Nails 3 times so far for a pedicure. The place is spotless, the massage chairs are quite nice, and the service is timely, efficient, & thorough. read more

They made time for me as a walk-in and were very accomodating. I'm very happy with their work! They removed my older gel manicure and gave me a new one that looks lovely. John paid great attention to detail and took time to make sure I was happy with the result. read more

I've been here multiple times since the new owners took over. They are kind, focus on the details, and do a great job with both kids and adults! I typically get gel mani and a normal pedicure. It's a mellow and relaxing atmosphere and never too busy. They can usually get me in without much notice. Highly recommended! read more

If I could give it a zero, I would. It's the worst pedicure of my entire life. It lasted approximately 8 minuets. And he cut my cuticle, and rubbed my foot with the buffer that it cut the bottom of my foot. They didn't fully cure the gel. And the man doing my pedicure didn't take his eyes off of his phone the entire 8 minuets. After 8 minuets of mediocrity, it costs over $100??? This was terrible. read more

The worst place I have ever been to . Lousy massage, rude owners, constantly talking in another language while I was trying to relax, just an awful experience for me I will never go back!!! read more

Went to C Nails to have my acrylic set "professionally" removed. Virtually no acetate or other liquid was used to loosen the glue or otherwise prepare for the removal. The man electrically filed my nails and stabbed at them until he could get another nail into a gap and pry up the acrylic. In addition to being painful, a nail was split, my nails were torn, and glue was left on all read more

I have to say that since I've been back I haven't been as happy with the work or the service. The massage was skipped once and the time after that I think she spent two minutes total. It's a huge part of why I like to go and pamper myself so I honestly might look for somewhere that spends a bit more time. I also had pointed out a nail that had broken and I didn't want shorter and she cut it-crooked I might add. Not super thrilled. read more

Nice salon and high quality manicure and pedicure. Pleasantly surprised to find them in Los Osos.

This shop is owned by a beautiful young woman and is a small, comfortable shop with 5 massage chairs and 3 manicure/nail stations, lots of polish colors to choose from and decent pricing. Benny (the owner, if I'm spelling her name correctly) did a wonderful pedicure for me! read more

Bailey was great and gave a beautiful manicure and pedicure. She took her time and did a wonderful job!

I always have a pleasant experience when I come to this nail salon. It's one of the only nail salons we have here in Los Osos. I'm so glad they opened. Tanner always does my nails and she's such a sweetheart. I always call a few days ahead of time to reserve my appointment slot. read more

I have had my nails done in Dec. 2022, Jan. & Feb. 2023. Acrylics & 1 time with gel . Being a retired manicurist I know how your nails should look when they are done properly. Ist. time I was not able to go back & have the owner fix them so I did it myself. 2nd time the wife did them & I went back a few days later to explain & show her the problems & said I wanted them Re done, that I was not happy at all with the them. Ok Ok she said & booked me a 3rd appt. I know she understood what I was saying & showing her. 3rd time the owner is doing them again & before his wife polished them she say " you pay now" I was dumbfounded & being an idiot I payed her. !! I have now paid a total of $145.00 Yes shame on me !! I should not have paid for the last set! Regardless.. the work that is being done for Acrylics with or w/o gels is not that of a professional manicurist who's also the owner! Also questionable is their sanitation or lack of! The photos show all 3 sets of nails I had done & how shoddy of work they do. Would I recommend this shop to anyone ? NO Will I go back ? NO. read more

Not a fan personally... I came in for a set I called and said was going to be long ahead of time and she said $38. After I came in not only did he do them WAY to short after i asked to measure from the pointer not the pinky.... but proceeded to tell me they are longer than normal and normally would be more than $38. I would NOT mind paying more for what I want but I feel he thought I wouldn't pay more than $38? Really a shame because he did do good work I just personally felt he was rude and I won't be returning. Although if you are looking for a short set it may work for you. read more

An acceptable, workmanlike pedicure. It was nice to be able to walk in on a Saturday afternoon. Massage was a little on the brief side, water in tub was a little chilly, but the results looked fine. Atmosphere is likewise very chilly. Salon is clean and silent. Do not expect a greeting, a smile, or a farewell. And certainly no eye contact. Part of paying for a service like this is some sensation that the shop is glad you came in. This one, not so much. read more

My first visit! from out of town and was in desperate need of a pedicure and walked into the Salon! It Was very clean and neat, I requested a basic pedicure and was very good. I will return when I visit again read more

Sorry to say I had the worst salon experience of my life here. I'm used to visiting inexpensive nail salons and was happy to see one open in Los Osos. I have been three times and the last was so bad I will not be back. -Made an appointment two days in advance for a mani/pedi. The two attendants started on my hand/feet but when a walk-in came in my manicurist left to see the new customer. I was told everything would take 45 minutes, ended up 1 hour 25 minutes! -When my feet were done soaking the attendant threw my leather sandals in the dirty foot bath because he thought they looked dirty! It took TWO days for my sandals to dry and the bottoms of my feet were stained black from the wet leather of my shoes even after I went home and scrubbed again. -The foot "massage" was so painful I started tearing and almost had to ask the attendant to stop. -Neither of the employees spoke English. I'm used to this, but I was not even able to communicate about payment. read more

This is the 4th attempt trying to give a local place business. My experiences have varied from a lack of staffing, weird husband of owner, an unsatisfactory gel application; now today I just went in for a removal of another salon's gel application. They were so understaffed, I waited 30 min. with my nails wrapped in solution then they used a severe file ... My nails are sooo damaged I don't know what to do. I will NEVER go back there again .... Bad management.... read more

We found this great nail place on the fly on a Sunday morning. Everyone else was closed after stopping by 3 other places that said they were open on yelp however not one open. Very frustrating to say the least but we are so glad we found C Nails in Los Osos. We walked in, picked the color and style of nails to be done and in 45 minutes we are beautiful and in the car on our way. The lady was so precise who did the nails and we were so happy with the work. What a clean place too and enjoyed our fun conversation with the little family member Lauren who was there at the salon on this past Sunday. Great job, we will back... read more

I would definitely recommend this shop and look forward to coming back the next time we're back in this area visiting!! Thank you so much for getting us in! read more

This is my second time having a pedicure here...both times with the new owner's. I am not impressed at all!! Heidi (owner with little girl)did my pedicure, it's as if she's bored to death and her main goal is to get done as fast as she can....she literally just finished my pedi...while I'm in the chair waiting for nails to dry...Heidi (young owner with little girl) is scrubbing out the basin. been to many of the nail salons from SLO to MB....this pedicure is close to one of the worst. One bad pedicure...maybe she was having a bad day...two bad pedis...forget it! Best nail Salon and best pedi @Nails on Foothill/Santa Rosa...definitely worth a trip to SLO. read more

Very nice little nail salon, clean, bright, friendly family owned business. Love my pedicure

could have done a better job myself at home. sooo overpriced. had an appt. and ended up having to wait at least 20 min to actually sit down in the chair. the lady doing my nails was extremely careless and rushed through the whole thing. she missed multiple spots on each nail and got random stuff in the paint. they are horrible. i will never go back. read more

Baily and Milo are the new owners and most welcome in Los Osos. Both husband and wife are efficient, sanitary, and quick, without giving up the luxury of a good and beautiful mani/pedi. If you haven't welcomed them to our community, drop in, they take appointments but sometimes you can be worked in quickly. read more
