Pedicure Spa #1 with gel = $41

Very nice staff and male manager is customer motivated. He gave us snacks and a drink during our wait for their services. Nancy brought my feet back to life. Thank you!

Set of white nails with white toes . Nails were done by my personal manicurist

I get a pedicure most of the time here with gel and it last over a month most occasions ! I have rarely found cracked polish and everything has great quality when it comes to service , hospitality and overall products they use on you . It very relaxing and I've been coming here over 5 years now I'm very thankful the vibe is overall positive happy and enjoyable

One of my favorite sets ever, but over time the 3D flowers ended up getting super ugly discoloration from rubbing onto stuff

I'm a Diva Nails frequenter, this is technically my favorite nail salon in SD as I've completed at least 50 visits here but I hate how high they charge and how the nails always break. I've been here for 6 years almost every month or two, I'm a huge fan of their work and their ability to churn out really good nail designs really quickly but I HATE HATE HATE how quick my nails ALWAYS break when I get them done here. I get long acrylics with gel polish and designs so I'm paying top dollar for my set that feels like a big price jump from other local salons. You're paying for the nice location, comfortable setting and fabulous work. But they tend to file the nails down THIN which looks great visually but makes them prone to breakage. I've had to return 3x to fix the same set before. I've had a pinky nail bleed from breaking. It was the most gorgeous pink marble design of my dreams but man it was literally BLEEDING because it broke so deep in my nail-bed. This time, in January 2026, one of the nails on my new set broke within first 24 hours the night before my birthday and I don't have time to go fix it!!!! It's super aggravating which is why I like to go to get my nails done at Styles Plaza Bonita (on the first floor by Target) instead half of the time because they keep your nails thicker there and they don't break even after a month.

Broken acrylic toe nails and cuts

Diva Nails Chula Vista I'm sharing this in hopes that management will take it seriously and make this right. I have scheduled appointments in advance multiple times, yet I'm consistently asked to wait 30+ minutes because my technician is still with another client. This defeats the purpose of booking and shows a lack of respect for customers' time. More concerning is the service quality. My clear requests to properly remove and replace acrylic were ignored, the work felt rushed, I left with cuts on my toes, and within days the acrylic cracked and broke. This reflects poor workmanship and inadequate care. When I calmly raised these concerns, they were dismissed and I was still charged full price, with no meaningful attempt to resolve the issue. Because this has happened more than once, I'm extremely disappointed. I would appreciate management reaching out to address this experience and provide an appropriate resolution. -- Valerie

Really nice to pamper yourself from time to time. I was at a birthday party with some friends and one of them lives in Chula Vista and suggested to get us a Mani-pedi at this place as it is cheaper than in San Diego. I am not used to do the fake nails (last time was 3 years ago) but I loved my experience at Diva Nails. Very active salon, it was so busy all the time I was there. I really like the result of my acrylic mani and my monkey toes got very happy too. Only think I didn't like was to be charged $2 for using credit for each transaction.

Ivy does the most amazing job every time !! She pays so much attention to detail and she's so quick too (': . I showed her a reference pic and she got it exact, if not better. Susan also always does such a great job on pedicures. So sweet and kind. Love love love and will keep going to them.

The girls are mean they start talking in there language and all the other employees start looking at me I felt uncomfortable they continued, the girls got bothered of me telling her she doing it on even (I told her in a nice way ) and my nails where too thick wide my finger nail is not wide she didn't do them even and this is my 3rd time they had done this to me sadly I do not recommend this place I felt uncomfortable I Js wanted to get up and leave but I did need my nails done I though it would be different this time her energy was really rude.

Look I paid with tip 150 dollars I do not mind paying, but I do expect that they last at least 2.5 weeks but with a good mail tech quality will last 3 weeks. I am in so much pain right now both hands all nails are lifted. 5 nails gone... look they looked beautiful as soon as I did them and I loved them and I said I want to make them last for a bit but this is not the business. Diana had such a great vision and I was soooo happy but right now I feel regret. Both my hands hurt so bad. Fresh set as well.

Another miracle done by Diane
Riley S.

Came w Diane for a more than overdue appointment. As ever Diane continues to amaze me after so many years I've tried many different salons & different nail Techs throughout San Diego but nobody seems to top her. No wonder her desk is #1 :)

This was after I started vigorously treating it. My toenail was green!!! I'm still treating it twice a day! 3 months after seeing them!
Kimberly C.

I have been going to Diva Nails for 18 months. Don't go here unless you want a half asss job done on your hands or toes. Everything was fine until I got a bad pedicure that ended up with fungus in my nail. When I went back later to discuss it, I was rudely dismissed.

Ask the Community - Diva Nails

Are they open right now during this covid?

No They are not right now

How much does a pedicure cost?

the spa pedicure is $20

How much for gel acrylic nails?

$31 for a full set

Does anyone know how much a full set costs? Coffin shape, shortish/medium length & one gel color?

$38 - This is exactly what I get every time I go.

Do they do dip powder manicures?

Yes they do. Book your appointment with Dianne! They're all beasts but she's the top beast ;-)

Do they do dipping powder manicures here?

Yes

Does anyone happen to know how much they charge to remove a full set of acrylic nails?

$10

Does anyone know the price for a fill?

They honestly change the prices off and on. They don't organize their pricing correctly. For example, One day you'll walk in paying $25 for refill then the next you come in you end up paying $50... it's honestly ridiculous.

I heard they do eyelash extensions here, is that true?

Yes it's true! I believe the girls name is pronounced "hi-me" hope that helps!

What is the average price for a pedicure that includes nail trimming, cutting, polish and scrubbing?

Does anyone know the average costs for a full set?

about $31 and it depends on long/short/shape/design

Place is good but I went to get a nail fixed and the lady didn't even look at the other nails to see if they were even and made the new nail smaller then the rest and longer. Probably won't go back to diva nails I personally don't like the service?

How is this a question? This is more of a tip

Keep your money, IVY hair dresser bleached my hair however she missed to bleach all. She left me looking like a cheetah. She did not add the color I wanted after bleached. When she was done, I told her it was not the color in the picture she insisted it was. When I looked at my hair I seen black spots, she started laughing and said "sorry girl that's your hair it didn't grab there" I told her I need it fixed she said not today. I called her same day I left and she asks me to come back 4 days later to fix. I had to go to work with the horrible hair color. When I asked her if she can fix she said yes but I'll have to charge possibly, I will need to speak to my boss. This is horrible, the right thing to do should have been to correct the color to make the client happy and not keep looking like a clown. No respect nor consideration. She took the money but never offered to make this issue better the day of. She also cut my hair, horrible didn't even part, literally cut straight across. Horrible person, says she been doing hair 10 years. IVY needs to go back to school and learn to cut, color and make her customers happy. Your loss IVY I would have kept going for touch up but you SUCK!
