I like this nail salon and like the ladies and go there frequently for my pedicure. I've left other reviews, but I'm leaving this review because I just walked out and I'm a little ticked off. I'm a really good customer. I schedule my appointments. I arrive 10 minutes early for my pedicure appointment and they took too many people before I got there and told me two guests arrived late and they took them so they weren't gonna be able to do my appointment at my scheduled time and then asked me to reschedule later in the day. I can't because I have other things scheduled today. At some point salons have to prioritize their best customers and for people that arrive late they just have to be told they have to reschedule. I hope those people tipped them well. read more

So consistency in service and quality is very important to me. Castro Nail (Susan!) has hit the mark for me for years and years! I lived in the Castro for 14 years and moved to San Mateo 4 years ago. I still make the trip up to the salon for my mani, pedis and waxing every time. Susan is the only person that has been able to get my waxing just right every time! I was in the salon today for a mani and brow wax and once again Susan delivered. she is my go to person always. Truly a master in what she does. Thank you Susan for always making me look fabulous! see you in two weeks! read more

I came here for my birthday, walkin-in with no waiting on a Sunday, and while not overly friendly or chatty (which I don't mind when they stock the current US weekly) they did a pretty decent job. Granted, in North Beach I grew accustomed to a nail place where everyone knew me and chatted me up and where they did an amazing long-lasting job for around $20. In the Castro, the prices go up to about $30. Also, a mani just will not last as long (these are the places where they paint the top of the nail and not the side edges, maybe it's a style choice but I like the WHOLE thing painted). I added a star for Mimosas on Sundays and for how they shut the door when I said it was chilly, and turned my nail dryers to the warm setting, I like people who are receptive. Good OPI colors, cute atmosphere (right next to the castro theater), and decent prices (I paid $37 for a mani/pedi and a paraffin hand dip). Minus one star for forgetting to tell my manicurist that I asked for paraffin so I got the dip AFTER my nails were done, causing the polish to bubble. Doing better than All About You (one of my castro favs) for longer lasting polish though! Also, to speak to some of the "unsanitary" claims, They had an autoclave machine sitting right there on the counter and they were using it with each instrument I saw, so I'm not too worried about the hygiene there. read more

Best place in the Castro to get your nails done (I've tried the competition and can vouch for that haha). It's a small place with just a few pedicure stations and nail stations but it's a high quality experience from beginning to end. They have a good selection of nail colors and will offer you a drink - tea, water, wine. The owner and employees are all so friendly and accommodating and have an eye for detail for the shaping and painting. Reasonable prices as well, and you can purchase gift cards too. Highly recommend! read more

I work nearby, so it is convenient to get a lunch time mani. It's a small salon, so it's best to stop by during off peak hours/days. There's a wall of OPI polishes, they carry Essie and a few other brands as well. I wish the OPI section was better organized by shades so I could find the nude shades I like.

I have been going to Castro Nail Salon every three weeks or so, for almost 8 years now. I rely on reviews, and experiences of others, but have not written one for this business yet, so, here goes: In my experience, the staff has been nothing but absolutely professional in talking to customers, making appointments and providing service. I have never been asked for a tip (of course I do because it is customary and also too appreciate their work). The staff is also in a happy mood and with upbeat music playing in the background. I settled on this Salon after going to several others in the Castro area and continue to go here every 3 weeks although I moved out of San Francisco and live in the peninsula (4 years now!). A shoutout to Susan for being an absolute delight and such a pleasant person to work with! I highly recommend checking this place out! read more

Cute nail salon in the Castro, surrounded by tons of restaurants, cafes, and shops. A mani pedi was $40, which is reasonable for SF. The ladies were attentive, efficient, and super sweet! The salon had a solid selection of colors (both regular and gel). Hanna did my pedicure, and she took her time with the massage and made sure that my toes were completely dry before leaving (and even helped me wrap them because I was in a rush). The lady who helped with my manicure was also really attentive to detail and sweet. I'll be back if I'm in the neighborhood for sure! read more

I had a great first experience here today. I wanted a manicure because I have a job interview tomorrow night. I know, gay, right? No, wait, GQ says its okay. So it must be. But anyway... Went for the mani/pedi because it was only $25, and while I don't have a particular foot fetish going on, and no desire for colored nails, I also don't want to be one of those guys with the heinous looking feet... so thought some preventative maintenance couldn't be a bad idea. They were respectful, very nice. No pain. No rush. It was just what the doctor ordered (It was a stressful morning). I "missed" the $25 special by almost an hour, but when I expressed disappointment they honored that price anyway, which was very cool of them. I'll be back, and maybe bring friends next time :-) read more

I've tried this place a few times. Granted I usually just go for a basic pedicure and I'm not getting fancy things on my nails. But for a basic pedicure this place is great. They have given me appointments on short notice and have always been super friendly. The prices are definitely reasonable based on their location. It usually runs me about $27 for a basic pedicure plus tip. They do a really good job on my nails. I usually do an awful job so they've fixed my toe nail massacres and now my nails look great. I've decided to get regular pedicures now to keep the look going and as long as I'm in this neighborhood, I'll keep going to this salon! read more

This time, however, all I wanted was a builder gel fill but I left with two cut fingers and pure disappointment. I could tell that the woman doing my nails was shaving aggressively, but I figured she wanted to be quick & efficient. I didn't feel the cuts when they happened, otherwise I definitely would've said something about the pain. However, later in the process, I heard her say "oh" and I noticed that my left ring finger was ACTIVELY bleeding. Most frustratingly, she did not say sorry OR address the blood, rather, just started cleaning it like nothing happened. Then I looked at my right ring finger and saw cut skin there as well. I got light headed but couldn't muster up the courage to object. I shouldn't have to. The photos do not do it justice because as I mentioned, my left ring finger was BLEEDING down the nail. To make things worse, this nail technician was extremely rude and short. When I asked her if my left pinky nail could be shortened to match the length of my right pinky, she looked at it and didn't say a word. It wasn't until all the paint was finished that I then asked her again "can we please make this length match"? And she finally said she was going to, as if my question was an imposition. The audacity. At the end of the appointment, I still tipped (less than I normally do), regretfully-so. When I asked her if her name was one of the displayed venmo cards she said "no". Unfortunately, I do not have her name but she was on the younger side with glasses. I would not recommend unless you want to feel rushed, ignored, and even injured. I will not be going back to this salon.

I was worked on by 2 people; a woman who started my manicure, but didn't finish it. Mostly I was worked on by a tall man. He didn't communicate very much, but it was my first time and maybe I should have communicated more. I will next time. I must say I walked away with my toes and finger nails looking quite good. The place is pricey, $70 (which wound up being $72 and change on my debit card which was not explained to me) for a manicure/pedicure. I'm used to spending $50. I chose wellness due to long massages as part of the service. I quite liked the arms/shoulders/neck massage. However, the legs/feet was lacking. Not enough pressure and the feet mostly ignored. I also noticed my friend's legs/feet massage was SUBSTANTIALLY longer than mine and her person (younger man) attended well to her feet. That is my biggest complaint, a lackluster and way too short legs/feet massage. My next complaint is the cursory attention to my intense calluses on my feet and cracked skin heels. He maybe used the pumice stone for 20 seconds on each foot ! THIS is such an important part of a pedicure, coming away with soft feet. My feet were exactly the same when I left as when I came in. SO DISAPPOINTED!!!! Certainly NOT worth spending $70!!! One of the other things that softens feet for a proper pedicure is soaking them in treated warm water. A bowl of tepid water arrived, but it was not warm enough and my feet HARDLY got a chance to soak making the soak useless.
