I have been coming to this salon for the past year and the staff is welcoming, easy going and very talented. My go to person is Anna. She does the best designs and is so meticulously and detailed oriented when it comes to the designs. The shape of my nails always come out right. I've gone to other salons in the past and the shape isn't right and the nail looks thick, but not here. My nails last longer and still look good after 6 weeks. I occasionally get a pedicure from them as well and they have a variety of pedicure options. The organic and lemon pedicures are great. This is salon is a 10 out of 10. read more

I've been here a few times, but unfortunately I've walked out disappointed more often than not. I have short natural nails, and I understand that they're not going to look like a full set, but I still expect the polish and shaping to be clean and even. I asked for a rounded shape, and I honestly felt like my request frustrated my nail tech. The finished result had polish left on the sides and around the tops of my nails, and the polish was not applied smoothly. Several of the edges looked uneven as well. I'm really disappointed because I've continued coming back and genuinely wanted to love this place. Unfortunately, the quality hasn't been consistent, and this time I left feeling more disappointed than happy with my nails. read more

This is an updated review.. I've been to this nail salon multiple times - in fact they are my go to nail salon in Salinas. I give an extra star because Anna was so kind and gracious with my jelly manicure, but with Vi it was the worst service I've had after all these times I've gone- and I go here a lot. I came here for a Pedicure + Manicure. 1) The nail aesthetician (name is Vi) did my pedicure. First off, she was very rough with my toe nails and made one of them bleed. I didn't say anything in the moment because of the language barrier- and I already wanted to get up and leave but couldn't cus she was in the middle of doing my toes. 2) She only cut half of my nails on one hand. Thank goodness though because she cut too close to my skin on my thumb and it hurt. It was in the moment and already done. She also didn't ask me how short I wanted my nails. I understand that nails grow back so I didn't make a big deal, but typically the ladies usually ask how short I want my nails. 3) She painted my toes at first a color I didn't want. She painted them super clear nude- which in my mind I thought I was top coat. I told her the color I wanted and she came beck with a nude color (opposite of my pink color). So she had to remove the color and start over. Thank you to the other lady that was helpful. Sadly, idk if I would come back..and if I do I would not ask for Vi. I feel bad writing this review but this was the worse visit I had here and I tell people about this nail salon a lot. The second star is for Anna. Thank you for being kind and gentle with my nails as you could be despite my thumb hurting. read more

I had a really good experience! The drill work was great -- my nails are perfectly level and smooth, without being thick or bumpy. They also provided a water bottle, which was a nice little touch. They were very patient with my suggestions and even took the time to test out different colors with me to make sure we found the right ones. I didn't experience any cuts, burning, or discomfort during the service, and the nail art came out really well! My only small critique is that I wish the artwork/finish was just a little cleaner. That being said, I was moving around quite a bit at one point while talking to a friend, so honestly, some of that was probably my fault . Overall, everything still came out really nice and I'm happy with my nails! read more

I finally found my home nail salon after living in Salinas for almost 4 years!!! I've tried tried several nail salons prior to Elegant 7 Nails Spa and they never could never hold integrity. I must say I was blown away by how patient and kind Henry was while doing my pedicure. He did a phenomenal job with the service I chose. Anna slayed and brought my confidence back to life after having to completely remove the previous acrylic set that was poorly done at a different nail salon in the area. She was so gentle and quick with creating my favorite Gel X set I've ever had done. I could tell by the sense of her presence that she knew what she was doing and I put my complete trust in her. I will always be coming back! Thank you for the positive vibes, relaxation, and simplicity to say the least read more

After finding Elegant 7 Nails spa on Yelp, my husband and I walked in at about 3pm on a Tuesday to see if they had availability for 2 pedicures. They did! Right away two pedicurists were getting our foot baths ready and I quickly asked if they had time for a full set as well - they also did. Ruby did my husband's pedicure, Hailey did mine, and simultaneously Tracy gave me a full set based on a design I found on Pinterest. About 2 hours later, we were all finished and left very happy. The pedicures we chose were the top tier pedicures for $75 which included the longer massage and the foot bag treatment. Not sure it was worth the full $75, but as a special occasion treat it was no problem. My full set cost $60 + an extra $40 for the design work I chose. A bit pricey for a design, but again as a special treat it's all fine. Plus, I'm very pleased with how my nails turned out as well as my pedicure. Ruby, Hailey, and Tracy were all friendly, kind, and did great jobs. I'd definitely come back here when in Salinas and would recommend this nail salon to anyone who lives in the area. They also do eyebrows as I learned with another walk in while we were there. read more

This is the best nail salon in town. Friendly, speedy (but well done), and great prices! I've been a customer for over 2 years.

I've been looking for a nail salon for over a year. I have finally found the perfect place. The service from the front door until you exit is calm. The atmosphere is relaxing. The staff are so nice. My tech was the best, her name is T. I didn't feel a thing. She was the gentlest tech I've ever used. This salon offers water and is very attentive to my needs. The best part is they're ability to welcome feedback and express gratitude. Five stars read more

Called to see if they had time for a walk-in and they did. They weren't busy on a Sunday around lunchtime which was perfect for me since I never plan ahead. Quoted $40 for gel manicure on the phone. I came in wanting a certain color had a photo on my phone. One person was confident what color it was and it came out perfectly. It's a perfect match if you can see from the side by side photo. Plenty of parking available. Color: Bubble bath with chrome on top. Chrome was extra $10. Hoping it will last me 2 weeks because I love the color. read more

I've been coming here since February usually about every 3 weeks and I've never had a bad experience. The staff is friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. They have plenty of staff, nail stations and pedicure chairs. The color selections vary from what you would see in a normal salon to chrome, dip, gel, and jelly color options. (So many shades to choose from!) Anne is my go to technician. She is very hospitable, kind and very good at her craft! I usually make an appointment but they take walk ins as well. I definitely will continue to be a regular customer at this establishment. read more

Luck of the draw? I came based on the reviews. However, my experience was unfortunate for the price I paid. I'll say the environment/availability is nice maybe a (3.5/5). Nothing fancy, but comfortable. The bathroom was a bit dirty and paper cannot be flushed so there is an odor. As far as the nails....First, the water for my feet to soak in was cold, which I was trying to let go. I asked for my toes to just have a trim, they were cut short. The electric file pieces felt too harsh to the point it hurt and the attachment literally flew off of the device twice while on my nail-which burned. She cut around the cuticles and I felt it cut healthy skin in multiple areas and I definitely had a couple "ow" reactions. When the oil was applied-it burned. I told the woman it was burning and she didn't say anything. Mind you, I got the lemon pedicure. So when the lemon was rubbed on the toes- that really burned and I could see the cuts turning bright red. Finally, I didn't realize she was doing a pink base on the french tip (she didn't ask my preference). Once I did see, I spoke up and said "sorry, could you not do pink please?" The woman next to her reiterated for her and she went to continue with the pink. The woman told her again and the lady working on my feet pointed at the other toes she had already painted. The other woman said to use beige or clear. She quickly filed off the pink on the other toes- again which hurt and proceeded with clear. I also said "ow" during that filing, to which she scoffed. I kinda wish the other woman would have serviced me because the girl she helped seemed to have a nice experience. Really disappointed since this was a treat to myself before I go in for my induction. It felt more uncomfortable than anything. read more

There services have gone down. The have a new nail tech who use to only do pedicures and is now doing nails. She takes more than 2hours to finish a set and leaves them so thick. Two customers weren't happy with their services and the other nail tech (she might have been the owner) offered them to come back to fix them but they didn't have time. The didn't charge then for the inconvenience. But this is the 3rd time I have a bad experience there. I wouldn't recommend. read more

I really love this nail salon. Anna, Kim Oanh, and a few others (sorry, I can't remember everyone's name) always make my nails look so pretty. They pay a lot of attention to detail and don't rush, which I appreciate. Everyone is super friendly and always asks if I want some water when I come in, which is really nice. The place feels comfortable and welcoming, and I always leave happy with my nails. Definitely the best nail salon in Salinas, highly recommend if you want cute nails for any occasion. read more

Not a good experience at all. I came in for a nail removal. Got a male nail tech and he was so pessimistic wouldn't talk at all and when it comes to switching hands he would just tap on it for me to switch hands he's working on. Noticed how annoyed he was, as clients came by waiting to be seen he rushed my service and burned me so much throughout the whole session, truly painful. He rushed and completely burned every finger that I sighed of relief when it was over. I was hoping to do a manicure but as he finished he rushed me to wash my hands and when I come to the station he sat another client. So never again read more

Walked in reluctant to be taken in on a Friday evening but Anna was happy to help. Loved the quality of work she does. She does a really great re-shape & French tip. I explained my issue with the past pinkish base color and how I wanted it a bit darker and she did just that! Big thanks to her, I'll be back! read more

Elegant 7 Nails Spa - French tips with chrome on top - Nail Salons Near Me - Salinas, California

They are overpriced for a pedicure 70dollars ? yeah I don't think so last time coming here ..

I feel like I've been waiting my whole life for a nail technician like Katie! I've always been loyal when I find the right nail tech, but it's been heartbreaking when they move on. I had been going to Bella Nails, but lately, the service felt rushed, and I didn't feel the same level of care. After reading amazing Yelp reviews, I decided to give this new spot a try--and I'm so glad I did! Katie nailed it--literally! I shared my past disappointment with a former tech, Andy at Bella Nails, and my first experience with dip powder, hated it. She took the time to assess my nails, explain my options, and even suggested a new almond shape instead of my usual square/rounded look. What a transformation! My hands have never looked this good! Katie is friendly, honest, and meticulous with her work. She truly cares about quality, and I never felt rushed. I'm so happy I found her--I finally have a nail tech I can trust! read more

I will always rave about Elegant 7 in Salinas! I spent over a year trying to find a salon where you can feel the people who work there genuinely care about the quality of the work they put in. I get that 100% of every time I come to Elegant 7, I never even request a specific person because I am confident every person here will put their full effort in my pedicure. Today Judy showed her heart and care in her work and I cannot wait to come back! Always a calming treat, I daydream about between visits! read more

OK, not me, but my wife has been looking for a new nail salon since the plague. Asking women with nice nails didn't point the way, but Yelp did. Even with only a few reviews, what was said gave us enough to give it a shot. She's glad we did. I was given an estimate of 45 mins. for her pedicure and the tech spent 75, just to get everything just right. My wife's toes are gorgeous gold, and have stayed that way for almost a month. The salon is roomy and the people friendly and, unusually, doesn't overwhelm you with a chemical small as you walk in the door. We'll (well she'll) be back. read more

Katie "nailed" it!!! I have never had nails like this before. I called on 4th of July and they got me right in. The only salon that was open. and took me in for a pedicure and fill and I mean, I am thrilled with how good they came out. I have been getting my nails done for 40 years. I used to do nails myself and this is the best I've ever had, Katie turned my nails into I can't even tell you. They're so strong. They're so beautiful. Thank you katie thank you. read more

I moved to Salinas from Moraga, which is near Lafayette and Walnut Creek. For a while I was driving all the way to Lafayette to get my nails done because I was going there for 7 years and the ladies in Lafayette know exactly what I like and don't like. So starting over was a scary idea for me and to start at a new salon I was worried I would be disappointed or not like my nails. Well I'm going on a trip and I desperately needed to get my toes done and my pointer finger nail broke so I needed that done. My pregnant butt did not want to drive all the way to Lafayette. So I hopped on Yelp and I found elegant 7 nail spa. Omg I have never felt so relaxed at a nail place EVER! It wasn't chaos or hectic, the service was phenomenal, the girl that did not toes did such an amazing job taking her time cleaning and Katie did a phenomenal job on my nails and she fixed my broken pointer nail! I was so relaxed that I started to doze off sleeping! I'm in love with my medi and pedi and the vibe of the salon is so relaxing! Get your nails done here! You will not be disappointed! I know I will be a regular at this salon now! Thank you everyone for such amazing customer service and your amazing phenomenal work! See you all again in a couple weeks read more
