I walked in for a pedicure. First, I didn't see any of the tools in sealed sterile packs. Second,…read morethey didn't have proper toe separators and used twisted paper towels instead. Third, the technician was rushing the entire time and seemed focused on finishing quickly. The polish was applied about a millimeter above the cuticle, and I had to point it out so she could fix it. Their attitude was polite, and the service wasn't terrible, but it wasn't impressive either. I personally wouldn't return.

It's my birthday weekend and I'm out here with nails that were supposed to be the "cat eye" magnet…read moredesign... but the only thing feline about them was how sad they looked. I was devastated and felt stuck with these thick, dull claws for the weekend.... I jumped on yelp to find somewhere that could help me out and took a chance on Gel Nails Spa and asked for the best nail design tech. Enter Lynn, the nail queen herself. This woman completely rescued my nails. She redid them from scratch and when I say she slayed, I mean she put those other nails to shame. The muted green cat eye she did? Gorgeous. Elegant. Magnetic. The photo does ZERO justice; you just have to see them in person to get it. And shoutout to Julie, who did my French pedicure the night before, as I was just a walk in, because finding someone who can do an extra-square, modern French is basically like finding a unicorn, and she nailed it. Yes I'm picky. Between Lynn's magic touch and attention to details and Julie's precision, this place is IT. I came in sad and left flipping my hair. New salon unlocked.

I've been getting my nails done here for a year and a half. I initially had a structure mani and…read morepedi done at Walnut Creek and had a terrible experience, but I decided to give this location a chance and the experience was much better, initially. I've been every month for over a year and the first few appointments were great and I loved my nails. Over time I liked them less, but I didn't want to put in the effort to find a new salon just yet. But over time I noticed the tech I would always book with seemed inconvenienced to do my nails. I do understand they work hard which is why I tipped 20% everytime, even if I didn't love them, and I was polite and appreciative. Secondly my nails kept breaking super low, even though the gel is supposed to make them sturdier. Now after going to a new salon, I realize it's because she was making them too thick which was causing stress to the nails. Also, they've pushed my appointment back 3 times, and once even moved me to Walnut Creek. And while they called to ask, there was never a courtesy discount or credit offered even though they were inconveniencing me. Yet when I asked to change my color the last time I was there, they didn't have time for that, and they hadn't even applied the color yet. Also, they advertise "flawless nails" yet the times I've asked if something could be fixed they get irritated and gaslight you. I had chrome and I discovered bubbles which I called and asked to be fixed, especially because it's an upcharge. When I got there, they acted like they couldn't see the bubbles. Another time I got a red and the polish came off the tips in about 4 days. When I went back the receptionist had the same color and showed me hers were chipping too and blamed it on the polish. I asked her how long she had it and she said 3 weeks and laughed, so how is that the same as 4 days?? And if the polish is poor quality why have it as an option. When the tech touched up my nails she was clearly pissed and rough with my nails. I think the final straw was them telling me I would need to pay $40 more for single color because my nails are considered long and take more time. While I do understand that, designs are 120/125 and are allocated 2 hours, yet I'd have to pay $140 for single color? Yeah, no thanks. I regret being too lazy to find a new salon sooner.

This was my third and final time going to Chloe Nails…read more They gave me the selection of colors and I chose what I wanted. She went to get the color and came back saying they don't have it, so I selected a different color to which she came back again to say they didn't have that one either. She found a similar color in gel (I was getting dip), so I ended up paying extra for the gel in top of the dip...all because THEY were out of the dip colors they had offered. Additionally, I play guitar, so I keep my nails on my left had really short and on my right I keep them with a bit of length. I told Jessi this and she did my left hand nice and short, but then began aggressively filling down my right hand even though I had told her to keep them the length as is and to just round out the corners a bit. Not only did she file them too short, but she filed them slanted! On a previous visit, I got GelX just on my right hand (for the guitar playing) and they charged for both! This is bad service on top of bad policies. Not how a business should be run, especially in the service industry.

They've done my nails for my bachelorette and my wedding (not pictured). They've always done an amazing job making the designs I want and I'm not in a chair for 2 hours for a design which is a plus!! They are efficient and quick to respond via text. They always make sure the color and shape is good before they move forward. My nails LAST at least a month or longer. I get so many compliments on them and it honestly just brightens my day having beautiful nails. If you're in the area, there really is no nail salon like them.
