Came to get a pedicure here, the space is large & clean. They are able to accommodate walk-ins well but if you want a secure spot I recommend making an appointment beforehand. John & Lynn are the best! John did my pedicure & he left my nails looking clean & fresh! They offer a variety of colors & shades as well as waxing services. read more

I rarely do my nails not that I can't afford them but coz fake nails make me feel uncomfortable but since I was getting married the following day i decided to make them look cute. i felt like the man who worked on me had implicit bias, he seemed very angry by my presence like I didn't belong here kind of vibe . i felt like he didn't want to work on my nails. felt like he was in a hurry to get rid of me. he wanted me to do acrylics soo bad instead of dip powder nails that I wanted. he barely buffed my nails into the right shape I showed him on my phone. I gave him a tip even though I wasn't happy. I am naturally not a confrontational person so when I got home I had to buff and reshape the nails again by myself. I wish they can work on their implicit bias Because this country is diverse. read more

Anna does an outstanding job on my nails. She's gotten me to try some fun stuff like sparkling polish. I have had acrylic nails off and on for more than 20 years, and Anna is the best! read more

I made an appointment for 4:30 and arrived 15 minutes early. They kept me waiting for 33 minutes and took a lady ahead of me who did not have an appointment. Im very upset, that is not good service. read more

Update on my nail. When the acrylic finally came off you could see where my skin was exposed, cracked all the way down to my skin. As it grew out it cracked more causing my nail to lift up and break off. I wish I would have taken a picture when the acrylic first came off. read more

Dreadful experience! We were a group of 4 with an 8:30 appt. Arrived at 8:25 am. The owner acknowledged our appt and she immediately seated a walk in customer and began that pedicure. We observed there were no other staff in the shop. Seated at 8:50 am for Pedicures. 3 staff walked in through front door at 9 am, unloaded their belongings and began working on our party of only 3 out of 4 since they were short staffed. Our #4 customer in our group was seated in a pedi chair with an empty tub, ignored, not greeted and no explanation or apology whatsoever after the rest of our group said she's with us and where is your staff? First customer walk in completed pedi and proceeded to sit in mani chair where her nails got done. Another walk in came in and the 2nd staff that just finished a pedi began working on her nails and continued to ignore us. Terrible customer service-avoid this horrible nail salon folks! read more

Do they do nails? Yes. Do they do bad work? No, but nothing noteworthy either. I found them less than friendly and only doing the bare minimum. read more

I've been traveling these past few weeks and needed a quick fill and pedicure to rejuvenate myself. Stopped by Elite Nails and Spa for my fix! Trish did my fill and it's amazing! I pretty much stick with the neutral colors or the lighter shades, but she talked me into adding a subtle design and a little chrome. I was afraid to leave my comfort zone, but do happy I did! Look at them! They're beautiful. Everyone is friendly here and easy to talk to. Very professional and clean environment. Maggie is the owner and actually helped me select my nail color! I wish I wasn't traveling, otherwise I would be a regular! read more

Needed a place to get my nails done and found this spot. I live in Galt and was in Valley Springs that day. The service was very nice and welcoming. I didn't do anything crazy on my nails just gel polish and I love them. Mike whom did my pedicure was very thorough and the massage was great, he is a funny guy as well. John did my finger nails and he is on point, I felt he spent time doing them like it was a art for him. Very tender sweet guy. All around I will travel from Galt to come see them for my nails. Absolutely a wonderful experience. read more

Decided to treat my self to a pedicure today. The guy that did my pedicure was really nice. I chose the pedicure that included the hot wax ... the polish job itself was nice.. my feet were dry and scaly and I was concerned he seemed to not be paying attention to my cracked heels. I didn't remember him using the pumice on the rough areas. When he said it was $55 I about choked because I didn't think it was worth $55 but I paid it and went home. I took a closer look at my feet and I am NOT happy. For $55.....$60 with tip you would think they would look a lot better than this. Sorry...I feel like I just threw my money away. Now I will have to pay again to have it done correctly or do it myself. You have only one chance make a good impression and I have to say.. I'm not impressed. read more

I've never had a bad experience getting my nails done at this place before .. until today. First, they didn't have the color I wanted for my pedicure so the guy used a shade darker which I was with fine with at first but I just didn't like the color quite as much when the guy was finished. The polish was splotchy, and then the guy put my flip flops on right after he was finished and nicked the polish, but he didn't fix it, he just put clear over the nick in the polish. So I decided against getting a manicure. Then when I went to pay, I paid with card, and he saw the cash in my wallet that I just took out for my trip to Mexico and he told me I needed to tip in cash because "they" will take 20% from his tip if I tip on my card. I was irritated that I had to tip him in the first place. So I spent $35 on a pedicure that I have to redo today because I'm leaving for vacation tomorrow. read more

The deluxe pedicure is my favorite. Wether I walk-in or make an appointment they always do such a good job here at Elite. I enjoy the massaging chair you get while getting the pedicure. John was gentle, thorough and created the perfect flower for my big toes. I love the bling too. I've been going here for years. Great quality, prices & customer service. read more

This was my first time here. I had called another nail salon however was treated so poorly, I immediately picked up the phone and called Elite instead. When I called they were polite on the phone, very accommodating and welcoming. As I entered everyone was happy and the customers also had positive energy. Everyone was happy which makes a difference when you go in somewhere that people truly like their job. It makes a difference and it shows. My nails turned out lovely like I had wanted. Thank you for a wonderful experience!! read more

I am so pleased with this salon! Friendly, pampering! I almost forgot getting your nails done should be a treat! I was going elsewhere and I got my nails done but....lacking an enjoyable experience. Isn't that what doing something like getting nails done is about? Officially my new salon!!! read more

I always come here to get my facial and mani/pedi which I get done by either Maggie or Dona. They are both very friendly and sweet. Also, always take their time and do an amazing job! This time I came in for a simple pedi and I heard the manager, Maggie does microblading herself. So I came in with my normal makeup. I definitely recommend coming without a face of makeup since she will ask you to take it off. Maggie started off with measurements and went straight into finding the shape I wanted. It was a quick procedure. The numbing cream helped out with making it less painful. Overall I love that I got them done. It looks so NATURAL! I was born with very light brown eyebrows. So for anyone who was born with light eyebrows or even those with eyebrows who are thinking of getting theirs done, I recommend coming to see Maggie! I was scared to do it at first but after it was all done.. I seriously can't imagine why I hesitated in the first place to get it done. Microblading my eyebrows has been the best investment I ever made in my life. read more

Since moving to the area a little over a year ago from the Bay, I've struggled to find a place to get my nails done. I tried all the way from Jackson to Sonora and couldn't find a place that I was happy with. A friend told me about Elite Nails and said she went to Trish. I've been regularly going to see Trish since and am so thrilled to finally be happy with how my nails turn out. It's a pet peeve of mine when I get my nails done and they look like their a week grown in already. But Trish gets the polish as close to the cuticle as possible. She's incredibly easy to talk to, and receptive to any changes. The salon is clean and everyone there is really friendly. Sometimes I go and just want to check out (read/listen to podcast) and other times I like interacting with the staff and customers... this place is great for both. I'm super happy with Trish and have referred other people to go see her! read more

If I hadn't been given a gift certificate, I would NEVER have gone here. The pedicure was ok. The problem is they don't listen. I asked the man doing the pedicure not to cut my nails, just shape them. H cut my toe nail extremely short, even though I asked him not to. Also, I showed him a picture of a flower I wanted and he said no problem, he could do flower. The picture was from their website, so I thought it would be ok. When he did the flower he bent my toe way down so I could not see what he was doing. He then stuck my foot into the UV light. When he was finished and I finally got to see what he did, it was all wrong. NOTHING like what I asked for. I will NEVER go back. read more

I stopped in for a fill after work for the first time. I called ahead to see if they had time; they said 15 minutes. I showed up about 20 minutes later (I wanted to give them some extra time). I waited for another 15 minutes and then they started on me. They did a great job smoothing out the acrylic so no bumps between the old and the new. It was $40... for a fill. While I was there people who had appointments waited for at least 10 minutes before they were able to start on them. Very clean though! read more

I came to get my usual pedicure with Dona. I've been coming to Elite Nails & Spa for years now and I have to say they have never done me wrong! They always offer the best customer service and the quality of their work is outstanding! As I was getting my pedicure done, I noticed that another client had come to get their eyebrows micro bladed. Maggie, the owner, is honestly the best beauty guru! She is so skilled! Once Maggie had finished with her client the before and after was amazing! I knew I had to book an appointment ASAP! Maggie is so professional! Her work is exquisite and I am so happy with my results! I recommend anyone who has been contemplating of getting their eyebrows micro bladed to come see Maggie because she is the best! read more

Best pedicure I have had in over 10 years. Lovely clean shop. Fantastic massage chairs. Very relaxed and professional. Highly recommend.

I've been going to Elite off and on since they opened. Some good nail techs have left and some good ones remain. Have had my share of bad experiences with them but good ones also. I'm afraid yesterday took the cake in rudeness. Ken has been doing my nails lately, not bad but takes a long time for even a simple fill. Last fill he was unavailable so I had Lana. I love Lana and she does the best pedicure however when she does my nails they always lift. My husband went into the shop yesterday and went up to Ken to tell him I needed a fill and wanted him to do it. He was very rude telling him no no she has to use Lana. Really irritated my husband and he left. He has used Lana for years for his pedicures and now says he's done with them. Sorry but Ken's rudeness has just cost them 2 longtime customers. read more

I have tried several nail shops out there and I continue to find this location to be best. The quality of several manicurists are great.

I recently treated my exchange student to pedicures at Elite. A friend comes here frequently but I had never been. Now I know about this little gem!! I was so pleased with how my pedicure turned out & the people are great. Really funny & nice. They have big comfy pedicure chairs & give great massages with each pedicure & manicure. The best part is that a pedicure is $25 & with french or painted flowers an additional $5. Worth every penny!! Also a very nice bonus is they take walk-ins!! Pay with cash & they give you a punch card for your visits. read more

Overall, it was ok. My mom & I went for pedicures. It was a Thursday around 2:45. We called first & they said there was no wait. We get there 20 minutes later & all the chairs are full, plus a wait. While we were waiting, 2 people walked in and sat right down, no wait. Did they have an appt? Maybe, but nobody told us anything. We waited at least 1 hour. I know its a NAIL salon, but open a door or a window. The smell in there was stronger than any other place I've ever been. The guy that did my pedi was very friendly, pretty quick and good at his job. BUT at the end, he smudged my big toe nail.... I can do that myself thank you. Of course he fixed it, but its still slightly visible. Location: OK Wait Time: 1 hour Atmosphere: OK, but poor ventilation Service Received: Pedicure Customer Service: Good Price: $25 Would I Return: I'd try the other nail salon in town first Would I Recommend: Only if you're not in a hurry read more

Some very rude employees who do not listen. I was told to stop talking when explaining what I wanted done and after all, it wasn't what I wanted. The finish was terrible. Paint coats were uneven, surface was rough, incomplete coverage on several nails. I Paid a small fortune for a crappy nail job that I could've done better myself *for free*. read more

Garbage service. Will overbook appointments to the point that you sit there for 45 minutes past your appointment time. When they overbook they won't actually do what you would like them too and will instead ask you to change what you want to something more convenient for them. They are also unsanitary with different employees not wearing shoes or socks or masks and reusing many nail tools on different customers. Definitely not following standard protocol for licensed nail salons. Would give 0 stars if I was able too. read more

Love that I can call up and or just walk in! Everyone is so great here! Love Maggie!!!

I went here two days ago to get my nails done and the lady who did them was just plain rude to me she cut three of my fingers and had some of the worst costumer service I have ever seen and I used to work at Walmart. Then not even 24 hours went by and one of them broke and another is already cracked the only good thing I have to say is they fixed it for free. read more

Very disappointed! I witness the lady that waxed my eyebrows double dipping her stick into the wax after she waxed me. That being said I am a cosmetologist and know that is a big no no! That can spread infection quite easy! I just can't imagine how many people's germs are in that wax. You would think that during a covid 19 pandemic that they would take better safety precautions. Other than them all wearing masks I don't think that they are very clean. I use to get my eyebrows waxed all the time here. After I saw that I will not go back for waxing! read more

I haven't been to get a pedicure here for quite some time. They not only remembered my name, where I work and then went on to ask if everything was okay because I hadn't been there for such a long time. They got to me within 15 minutes even though every single person was busy when I walked in. They did a wonderful job on my toes! For $65 dollars I got a 25$ gift card, a salt scrub, a manicure and a pedicure with flowers. (not including tip) If you are in Valley Springs and need some TLC this is the place to be pampered! read more

I went to get a pedicure and manicure this week. I believe the gal that did my nails was Tina. She did a fair job on my pedicure, got the deluxe. I was disappointed in the manicure, she only put my fingers in warm water and did not use any cuticle lotion. I only had her put a plain top coat. She did minimal work, just rushed me through this. I paid $45.00. I thought it was to much. Not sure I will go back. Will try other nail places to see. read more
