    I went in for a manicure/pedicure. I have been here before! So I thought I'll give them another shot! (I treated my mother to a pedi and she said nail polish chipped the next day) I gave them the benefit of the doubt and gave them another chance. Thinking maybe it was just a bad nail polish. Now I'm thinking the work itself is not good. I was a walk-in and they took me right away, which was nice! At first everything was going great! comfy chair, relaxing music, water temp was nice, staff were friendly etc.. I wanted to try something new since my own nails had grown a good length. I thought I would try powder dip nails. What I didn't know was how lumpy she would leave them!! I felt like you couldn't tell until you really moved your fingers around. To top it off Towards the end before the gloss and blue light, she walks away to help another customer and sends the male to finish the job. No explanation. He stared at my nails and he seemed resistant to seal it because he stared at them and moved them around to check but he sealed them anyways. Once I was driving and in outdoor light! the closer I looked the worse it looked!! They look terrible! Even the thumb nail looks like I already need a fill. I have a wedding event tomorrow so I have no choice but to keep these on but I can't wait to take them off. What a waste of money. Pedicure was ok. The service itself was nice but again with a closer look she didn't neatly paint them and they don't look as cleaned up as I usually get them. I paid $102 plus tip! I was asked to pay Venmo and to tip cash please. I informed the gentleman that I did not have cash and he just said "ok add your tip when you Venmo" I always tip! But The super insisting part of it is too much! Especially when the quality of the work leaves you disappointed. I will definitely never go back.

    This nail spa is under new management! My nail technician, Julie, is the best of the best, and I've followed her from various salons for years. I'm thrilled she's now at this more conveniently located Burlingame salon, which has plenty of parking. The salon is also very spacious. If you're lucky enough to have Julie do your nails, you'll love the results! ;)

    Messy green nail polish on nails

    I would give 0/5 if I could. I came in for gel removal and a regular nail polish manicure on my natural nails. I was going to write a whole thing, but I think the picture speaks volumes. This is after two separate people "cleaned up" the nail polish job. This took 1.5 hours. Also, I think she got lost her own thoughts while removing my gel because she filed one of my nails down way too much and now it's very thin and painful.

    I came late and didn't even have an appointment but thanks for Julie, she still did my nails and they turned out very nice and pretty. Love it !!!!

    Great nail tech n Julie did a great job.The vibe here is so chill and everyone was so nice.

    Well, this review for a regular polish pedicure is not good.... Let's start with the good stuff: 1. clean and spacious 2. private chairs separated by sheer curtains 3. good lighting, both natural and overhead 4. coconut oil foot & leg massage 5. staff masked up and temperature taken upon arrival 6. super clean bathrooms Bad stuff: 1. Waiting more than 10min for my 1215 appointment 2. price discrepancy 3. shoddy work 4. no whirlpool foot bath 4. the amount of coconut oil used in the foot & leg massage 5. massage chair remote screen was inoperable so I could not increase the time or properly choose the setting 6. toilet bowl is very high up! 7. out of stock of nail polish colors I originally sent them a yelp question on 20Jul20, via the community board for the cost of a pedicure and was quoted by Mai F. $35 for gel and $25 for regular polish. Thank goodness I brought my own polish as I mentioned, they were OUT of Stock of a lot of colors and who wants to roam around the salon scrounging and poking around other stations for the perfect color! I don't know the name of the technician who was doing my pedicure, however, her hand was a bit heavy with the polish and she did not clean up around nail of excess polish. Upon closer inspection, the coats of color are uneven and already chipping ;( When I checkout out, she told me $35 and I responded with the amount I was quoted, $25, and she became flustered raising her voice. This brought the other technicians to chime in on how I was wrong, and eventually one of them walking up to me to chat. I busted out my phone and showed her the Yelp page of what I was quoted and again, she told me that it was wrong. No apology. Not graceful. Made me super uncomfortable in front of everyone in the salon and it was pretty packed by this time. I paid $25, plus $5 tip leaving her with $30... And I will NOT be back, unfortunately.

    Beautiful!!

    The nail polish was uneven but when I pointed out, they polished again. Regular manicure chipped on the same day.

She's warm, professional, and super efficient without ever feeling rushed. She checks in with you throughout, has a gentle technique, and you can tell she has years of experience. The Brazilian itself was way more manageable than past places I've been -- and I had minimal irritation after, which is a huge win for my sensitive skin. Also: she's thorough. Like... she cares about the details and it shows. I left feeling smooth, clean, and genuinely taken care of (not like I was just another appointment being pushed through). If you're new to waxing, nervous, or picky about who you trust -- book Wendy. This is 100% my new go-to spot.

    This is hands down the best skin care clinic I've ever been to. I had been searching for so long,…read moregoing through trial and error with other places, but I've never had someone deliver such noticeable results in just one session. At other clinics, I was often told my skin "needed a lot of work" and that it would take months of treatments before I'd see any kind of glow. Claudia completely changed that. I originally came in for a simple removal, and Claudia's kindness and professionalism instantly stood out. She was so sweet and welcoming that I decided to book a dermaplaning appointment with her. The booking process was easy, with plenty of open availability, which made everything stress-free. What really set Claudia apart is that she was the only skin care professional who actually talked to me about the internal causes of my skin issues -- like stress and anxiety -- instead of just trying to sell me on expensive products or medications. It was refreshing to have someone care about the root cause instead of pushing a prescription. When I came in for my appointment, I was blown away by the results. Not only did Claudia give me an incredible dermaplaning treatment, but she also fit me in last-minute to have my eyebrows waxed when I mentioned I hadn't had the time. My eyebrows have truly never looked better. After leaving her chair, I couldn't stop looking at myself. My skin was glowing, and my acne scars on the side of my face looked so much less noticeable. For the first time in a long time, I felt confident in my skin. I honestly couldn't believe the reflection staring back at me was my own. Claudia is amazing, and I couldn't recommend her more
