I came here on a Sunday afternoon for a walk-in gel manicure, and they were able to fit me in immediately! I was indecisive about what shade to go for, but they were patient and helped me figure out a color I liked. They were attentive to detail and efficient. All of their prices were reasonable without compromising quality, especially compared to other salons in SF. I'm usually hesitant to go for lighter pink shades since they can turn out patchy, but this was perfect. I am obsessed with the results! Will definitely be returning!
*First timer here* I wanted to get my nails done before EDC and decided to take a chance here. All I have to say is I should have came here a long time ago! They were able to take me in as a walk in :) I got a gel manicure. Cost was $38 (I don't get my nails done too often so I'm not sure if that's high, average, or low) but regardless, it was worth every cent! Got some nice green tea during my stay too! The attention to detail is superb and the hand massage at the end was amazing haha They have great selection of nail paint but I decided to get something a little holographic but natural for EDC. The pics I took don't give the nails justice! It's so pretty and reflective in person. Definitely coming back
Tracy texted me on 12/26 regarding my nails and said I could come in for a fixing, free of charge. She was able to get me in the next day at 12:30 luckily. We went back to doing dip and although that wasn't the most ideal for me, I was hesitant about cutting all my nails short and she noticed that so suggested dip again. She put tips on 3 on the broken ones and gave me a new set in a timely manner. I wasn't charged for the gel to dip change but I did tip (always tip!!). Thanks Tracy for the prompt responses and the customer service.
After getting acrylic twice, my nails were never the same. My friend told me about Diane Nails Care and how they can do an extension with gel. Figured - new year let's just give it a try! Honestly had an amazing experience - all the ladies there were super nice and welcoming. I love how my nails turned out. Even before the paint was on, the extensions with gel alone were beautiful! Will be coming here again!
They did a great job! Definitely coming back!! Wasn't quite sure if the leopard print was going to come out as the picture I showed them. But the gal absolutely nailed it! (Get it Nnaaiilleedd it) ;D Anyways can't wait to pick my next design in a couple weeks from now.
I have no idea why I haven't updated this review to 5 stars sooner. Tracy and her wonderful team are always a marvel and a pleasure. I come by not only to get one of the best mani pedis in SF, but for some truly relaxing me time--get the extra 10-20 min massage! Always worth it. Water or tea (even mimosas sometimes) are offered. Recently I've tried out the gel powder nail extensions and they look absolutely marvellous. Really natural, easy, and extra stunning with a French tip (suggested by Tracy, since they're trending right now)--try it in a bold colour like red! (See my pics. They don't do it justice!) Talented, kind team who always go the extra mile. Thank you!
I went here yesterday with my friend and was so excited to get our nails done for the first time in months! I am Vietnamese and speak Vietnamese fluently and before I could introduce myself I heard these ladies saying the most horrible things about their other customers - calling them "old" and "fat" and "cheap" and plotting ways to overcharge certain customers who they thought were being difficult!! I stayed quiet to see if they would say anything about me (obvi) and out of the gate they talked shit about my tattoos, said I looked like a whore, said I was fat, talked poorly about my nails. I called them out eventually and they didn't talk for the remaining 30 min and tried to back pedal so hard. Most nail salons are Vietnamese owned and I've been to so many where the women are kind, patient, professional and supportive. This is NOT that kind of establishment and I don't feel great about seeing women tip other women who have been verbally abusing them throughout an experience that should be relaxing. If you *feel* like they're talking bad about you here - they are. And they will overcharge you every step of the way. I personally would pay a premium for a more welcoming and inclusive establishment.
Tracy and Chow did such a great job on my gel pedicure and gel extension manicure. I would definitely return here and the prices were extremely reasonable for the quality.
Tracy and her team always do an amazing job! They have a wonderful color selection and are always kind to offer you tea or water while getting your nails done. I always go for a gel manicure and regular pedicure and love how clean and neat their work is. They also have very reasonable prices for SF and are friendly and accommodating for appointments. I highly recommend them!
I made an appointment same day as service, they fit me in and had excellent cleanliness and customer service. I usually only write reviews for nail salons bc that's a service I feel like needs a review. The gel process was great, and Tracy was very focused. It took a bit long, but it was worth it. Went in at 6pm and was done by 7, with design. I was able to pay via Venmo, and they have the safety glass up during your service. I will 100% be back for a pedicure. Very impressed
I called a couple salons in the Lower Haight/NoPa area to see what the best mani/pedi deal was. Diane's had Mani/pedi for $36 total. I only got a pedi for $26-$28, so I definitely should have gone to get both! The offer beverages, the green tea is pure oriental green tea which was good. I think they have a policy for redoing nails if they chil because some customers came in to get their gel redone after it chipped. Good to know. My star rating: 5 - I would be a regular customer 4 - would go back again 3 - probably try a different place 2 - not very satisfied 1 - turnaround and run
If only my nails actually didn't grow I wouldn't even need to come yet but that just goes to show how amazing and how much time Tracy spends on making sure your nails are perfect! It's been almost 3 weeks and my nails look brand new still since the last time I got my nails done by her but hey.. I guess it's just a girls routine to come every 2-3 weeks just to look good. I've been coming here for almost 3 years now and all the ladies are just amazing and super funny! They also will take care of you however they can... offer you some tea.. some treats and just making sure you're doing great! I think this is my second review for this nail salon but very much worth it! If you guys need some fabulous nails.. this is the place to go. I love coming here and honestly.. best nail salon EVER!
I just moved to San Francisco for the summer and was looking for a nail salon. I Stumbled upon Diane's nail care because it's literally a 30 second walk from my apartment. Sooo convenient. I was pleasantly greeted by the ladies, and they got me right in on a Saturday morning!! The salon is cute and comfortable. All of the ladies are so nice and sweet. I got the best mani/pedi I've had in YEARS. back in New York they always do my nails waaay too thick. I didn't even have the mention making them thinner when I came here! She knew exactly how to shape, file, and buff them. This is legitimately the first time in years that I'm super impressed and happy with my mani/pedi. Worth every penny and I can't wait to come back! read more
I called on a Sunday afternoon for a Monday morning appointment and they fit me in easily! $49 for a gel manicure removal + new gel manicure not including tip. Very wide selection of colors. I came in with a reference photo of how I wanted my nails to look and they spent 10 minutes patiently picking out colors with me to ensure I got exactly what I envisioned. The shop was clean and every staff member was so sweet - they even offered me tea! Will definitely be coming back! read more

I would actually give this a 3.5. I've come here off and on for about 8 years -- I like that they take walk-ins or make appointments, nails usually last, they do a nice job, and are not as expensive as other places. Had to rate them lower because I'm not sure what has been going on with their salon, but they charged me $100 for a gel mani-pedi, with an up charge for "multiple colors" which they didn't mention until I was paying (and I've never had that happen here or elsewhere), and rushed through the scrubbing/lotion part. I was a walk-in, but I came back at the time they requested and they didn't seem busier than usual. They also asked if I had been there before but seemed skeptical or confused when I said I had off and on for years (I used to live in the neighborhood)...so idk if they were just off with me because they thought I was new or what. I was quiet, didn't rush them or anything, and even showed them that I picked the colors to match a flower I'd seen nearby so I don't think I offended them...anyways, $100 (I tipped separately via Venmo, $100 was the charge on my card) for a 3-color gel mani-pedi that is already chipped a week later is disappointing when press-ons last two weeks and other salons even regular nail polish has lasted longer. I've always liked the vibe of this place and the customers, very chill and unpretentious, with usually great service and lasting nails. But waiting until I was paying to communicate it was an upcharge for multiple colors seems kinda shady so I'd still recommend it, just make an appointment and be proactive about communicating re pricing or what's included in a service. read more

I was so extremely happy with my nails that I had to leave a review!! Such nice women who work here and I got the best of the best. Chau prepped and shaped my nails and Tracey did the gel and design. What a dynamic duo!! I'm already waiting for my nails to grow out so I can go back. NEVER BEEN HAPPIER WITH MY NAILS EVER IN MY LIFE read more

I cannot say enough great things about this salon. The women who work here are wonderful, and they do a fantastic job! My friends and I love coming here to get our nails done together. I always leave with a perfect gel mani and pedi, which endure the abuse of my clumsiness over 2-3 weeks. My friends have gotten acrylics and dips done here too, and they look great and last. If you want your nails done well without paying an arm and a leg for it (which obviously we all want), you've got to pay Diane's a visit. read more

I've been really into a French manicure lately with a modern twist and Tracy has been making all my dreams come true! The dip gel is amazing, lasts for weeks and her technique is incredible - she hand files gently without using a harsh machine. The artistry and attention to detail is next level - just peep the photos. Been going here over a year and am always thrilled with the results! read more

I can to the store around 5:30pm on a Sunday evening. I was the only customer there and the ladies did a wonderful and professional job. You could tell the really take pride in their work. Tracy did my mani (French gel) and Jen worked on my pedi (regular polish). They both did an excellent job. Tracy especially really took her time to get my nails PERFECT. Both ladies could have easily rushed to get me out of the establishment by 7pm close but no. They worked diligently to deliver an awesome product. I ultimately left at 7:45 or so but I'm extremely impressed by the kindness and professionalism displayed by this establishment. I could not be more satisfied, and I will definitely be back! read more

Isn't my valentines mani sooo pretty? Tracy has been doing my nails for a few months now and she always does such a phenomenal job! Also can you believe these are my real nails? I always felt like I could never grow my nails so long, but Tracy helped get them to this point and I'm so so happy about it. 10/10 would recommend! read more

I am always pleased every time I get my nails done at Diane's. I'm always a little self-conscious about getting my nails done considering that they're nonexistent because I have a bad habit of biting them, but those feelings quickly turn into feelings of confidence after I leave with a job well done. When you walk into the shop you're immediately greeted with a warm welcome, followed by a variety of beverage choices. Tammy normally does my nails and she does not miss. First of all she is so sweet, we have always have the best conversations. Her attention to detail is unmatched, not to mention she's so fast! I definitely recommend Diane's, for their quality work, reasonable price and friendly atmosphere!! read more

I also love that they serve a diverse a clientele so you know they're exceptional. They have countless regulars who keep coming back, and that's the best sign.

Been coming to Diane's for a couple years now and they always do an excellent job. They are meticulous and make sure your nails are perfect. Tracy is fantastic at powder nails and nail extensions. All of the other women working here are friendly and sweet and remember personal details we've chatted about and always ask about my kids etc... they are taking Covid precautions very seriously and have plexiglass installed, sanitizer everywhere and appropriate distancing between clients. A great neighborhood go to for quality mani pedis! read more
