First time here, we were taken right away. My friend and I got a deluxe pedicure and a manicure. Service was great. Staff was very friendly and enjoyable to talk to. I paid $110 + tip. I'm pleased with my toes and my hands. After seeing a friend with her beautiful and long lasting acrylics I decided to come here and I'm glad I did. I'll be back! Thanks Tammy! read more

I absolutely LOVE Tammy! She's my go to nail person every time. I've been coming to this place for 7 years now and their quality and service is out of this world. The prices are the best in Poway in my opinion. Tammy is amazing with designs, and acrylics- but everything she does is amazing. The vibe of the place is cozy with music always playing in the background. They have a plethora of services. I will always come back to Clarity Nails! read more

This was my first time here I made the appointment yesterday here on Yelp ! They had really great reviews and I needed a place close to home . I did not catch any of the ladies names but they were nice , professional and very patient . I went in for a gel mani & a color change on my toes . The First Lady who did my manicure (I do have to say this was the most detailed manicure I've had in a long while) I'm assuming she's possibly new (4th table back) as I showed her the design I wanted she had to call over another lady to do it for her . Now, it isn't exactly what Was pictured (as I got a design that was on acrylic nails, which are much longer than my natural nails ) but it did come out cute ! My toes were just a change in color ; the lady who did them was fast precise and very nice ! I LOVE A CLEAN PAINT JOB ! The price wasn't as much as I expected (thank god) and the service was great ! I'll definitely be back and I'll bring some friends ! Thank you so much ladies! ‍ read more

Friendly & Pricey. I don't get my nails done often. Went in for a full sent of almond shaped nails with fun style (see pics of result.) They have a large selection of gel nail colors but be aware that the colors they use to make flowers or draw designs (like my nails) is limited. Also I chose a burgundy color and when she painted the design it came out purple??? Not a huge deal because I'm not that picky but a little disappointing. It costed me $60, which I think is too expensive. No extras just nails with scribbles lol *** update: nails only lasted 8 days when the first one popped off read more

I am happy with my nails color and the delicate job that the technician did. But the owner charges you arbitrarily! I paid $40 for a dip manicure last month and $45 this month for the same work?!? They don't ask for tips, and it doesn't matter if you are happy with your nails or not. She charges a fixed amount of tip on your bill. Bizarre behavior!!! Never seen such a thing!!! Plus, their tools are old and used a hundred times, unwashed. Disgusting! If there were any better place in Poway, I would never go back to them. read more

Decent and very cheap. On an impulse I walked in the day before Thanksgiving and was seated right away for a $10 basic manicure. They had a good selection of colors, not the biggest ever but good enough. Mostly reds/rose/pinks by OPI and more varieties of colors by Essie. Even though I swear by OPI and never get any other brand at a nail salon, I found a rogue "Island Girl" bottle that had the perfect bright lilac color I wanted. The nail technician took a long time with me so I feel like she was taking good care including soaking, cleaning, shaping, etc. The hand/forearm massage was quick and light. It started to chip just slightly on the edges the next day but I think that's because I didn't go with OPI. read more

It was great! I believe it was Tammy that did my nails on Friday 11/2/18 at around 2pm. Everywhere else i called in Poway were to busy and couldn't do my nails right away so i went there not knowing what to expect. Location itself was great. I didnt have to struggle to look for parking (which I can't stand at some places and for myself is a huge factor on whether I'll be returning, i know that's horrible lol but i hate hate hate wasting my time looking for parking). The inside of the salon was clean. Every time they do a client's nails they don't reuse the nail tools. Each time they have to open a bag of nail tools and throw them away after. I had a gel manicure which is $25. Total i paid was $30 because of the take off and design. They do accept card but you must bring cash for the tip. read more

Vi was the one helping me that day and she was great! She had to correct an overlay I had done at a thief salon and repaired everything and did my polish within an hour and quality was not compromised. I asked her for ombré nails and she nailed!

I decided to give this place another chance this weekend and unfortunately, this experience was…read moreeven worse than my last one. I honestly don't know if I would even call what I received a massage. It felt more like lotion being rubbed all over my body with occasional tapping just to pass the time. There was very little actual massage technique or pressure. I even mentioned my concern during the session but the response was that I needed to "relax my body." I get massages at least 3 times a month so I'm very familiar with what a good massage feels like. This was not it. I gave this establishment another opportunity after my previous disappointing experience because I believe in second chances, but I definitely won't be returning again. For only about $5 more, I've had significantly better experiences at Cloud 9 and Elegant Massage nearby. The difference in quality is unbelievable. If Yelp allowed 0-1/2 a star, that's what I would give this experience. It was a complete waste of my time and money. I rarely say this, but I genuinely would not recommend this place at ALL! It's pretty horrible.

Gave this place three tries…read more Three massages, three different therapists, three different types. All three times they ended the massage with 5 minutes left, and all three times they spent 95% of the time on a single general area while only spending a few minutes on the rest of my body. The massage quality itself was decent, but nothing special, especially for the price, and there was too much chiropractic-type work with the "strong hands" massage which should have been sports massage like it claimed, but it was not. The head rest on the tables is also angled downwards slightly for some reason, which makes it so your neck ends up supporting your head more than the head rest does. Nice decor and the place looks high quality, clean, especially the bathroom with a literal full makeup vanity table inside of it, but that doesn't make up for the high prices without the quality or consistency (or actually listening to the customer) to back it up. For all I know, the spa treatments may be great, but this review is about the massages... ...and their review practices, which is probably why this page is flooded with 5-star reviews. They'll text you multiple times, asking for you to review them if you give them your phone number, until you do; they'll also ask this right after you get your massage too. I feel like there was a sign saying you'd even get a discount if you did, but I can't remember for sure. So if you're wondering why there's so many 5-star reviews... Finally, for some reason, their youtube channel has some weird AI massage cartoons on it, so that's further points docked.

I really dislike negative reviews, but I have to be honest, this really happened! During a pedicure and exfoliation service, the technician scrubbed my foot aggressively towards the ankle, causing a scratch that led to bleeding. Despite her pleasant demeanor, her hastiness and inattentive nature resulted in careless harm to her client(s). The scar is now permanent and hideous. The salon itself appeared outdated, with a dingy and unwelcoming atmosphere. Although I will not return, the demand for women's nail salons ensures a consistent client base, and I just hope they improve their services. read more

The BEST nail salon in Poway ... The service is beyond 5 stars, extremely detailed, friendly, inviting atmosphere,achieved perfection as I am extremely picky about my manicure/pedicures. There is a huge selection of colors OPI and ESSIE including SHELLAC. I would recommend this salon to anyone and everyone as it is hard to find the perfect nails salon and I have. I cannot rave enough about the fantastic experience at Clarity Nails & Spa. Enjoy for yourself. read more

Then felt rushed when the next customer arrived (who also waited 30+ minutes). Only one person working on us at a time so whole appointment took 2 hours. Language barrier didn't help.... I wanted to pay for an extra service to add strength back to my nails (I came in with acrylic and gel polish). They don't do acrylic, said that gel-x was only for extensions, but then didn't offer anything else for nail structure, so I left with horribly thin nails after all the dremmeling. Now the gel polish is chipping after only a couple days. Won't be returning. It was also warm in the salon which made the wait very uncomfortable for me. Bummed about this experience because they did have very pretty gel polish colors. **and in response to the owner's reply to my review - no we were not told the gel would chip because of our nails being thin. My mom came in with dip powder and instead of soaking the powder off, they filed it off so it made her nails thinner than normal. And I was happy to pay extra for something to add strength to my nails. They could have offered a builder gel which I guess is a common material used for this. I asked about gel-x but the owner said it was only for extensions, when it could have easily been filed short since I prefer shorter nails. No reason why these services couldn't have been added on since the Groupon just included the gel manicure. We were already paying extra to have the old gel/dip/acrylic removed.
