Flora Blanc Nail & Lash Studio - hard gel by Quan - Nail Salons Near Me - Encinitas, California

This was one of the most concerning salon experiences I've had, and I would strongly advise others to AVOID this place. During my appointment, my nail tech noticed green discoloration under my gel nail and called it "mold." Instead of stopping the service, removing the product, or taking any sanitary precautions, she filed the nail and applied new hard gel directly over it. Covering a potentially infected nail is not only irresponsible, it reflects a serious lack of basic hygiene and safety standards. I went back to address the issue and asked for the product on that nail to be removed. They refused to offer a complimentary removal and told me they would "cover up anything," even if it were an infection. That statement alone should be alarming to anyone considering this salon. They also dismissed the possibility of infection entirely and showed no concern for my nail health. To make matters worse, this wasn't an isolated issue. On multiple previous visits, I told the techs that my nails were lifting. Instead of properly addressing the cause, they repeatedly just added glue over the lifted areas and continued with the service. That kind of shortcut traps moisture and bacteria, and it very likely contributed to the situation I'm now dealing with. A salon that ignores lifting, covers over potential infections, and refuses to take accountability is not maintaining safe or sanitary practices. This goes beyond poor customer service..... it's a health risk. I will not be returning, and I would strongly recommend going somewhere that actually follows proper hygiene standards and prioritizes nail health. read more

I found this spot on Yelp and I am so glad I decided to stop by. There is paid underground parking garage available, and I was able to walk in without an appointment, which was super convenient. The spa itself is beautifully decorated, very cute, and has a fun, girly vibe that makes the whole experience feel relaxing and special. They were also running a promotion, with a sign right at the entrance offering additional discounts, which we always appreciate. I got a gel manicure called "Delight" for $50 and a signature pedicure with regular polish for $55. Emily did my nails, and she was fantastic. It has been two weeks now, and I am still really happy with how everything has held up. There has been no lifting or cracking at all, and I still absolutely love the color. read more

The salon is gorgeous, and everyone was nice, but the quality of work wasn't worth the price. The environment and atmosphere was definitely upscale, but the actual service provided was not up to par. I got a gel pedicure, and the work seemed rushed, and my toes were filed uneven. I think I would try it again just because it's very pretty and I like the water and Madeleine cookie, but if the quality wasn't there again, i wouldn't come back. I read more

A beautiful salon for sure. With a parking garage right behind it. We wanted to love this place, but my pedicure on March 12th 2026, was not very enjoyable. The technician I had was rough, clearly. She cut my toe, and didn't say a word, just kept dowsing some blue liquid on it to stop the bleeding. She also never apologized for cutting me. A few days after this pedicure, as my toe was still sore and throbbing, it started to bleed. I don't understand why anyone doing pedicures needs to use such sharp tools, and if you cut a customer, apologize!! Due to this I would not go back. My advice, hire better people! It's a beautiful place and great location. They need better professionals for sure. read more

This place is like every place where the inside is so beautiful but the quality is lacking. I was told I had the manager do my nails... I was just so unhappy with them I needed that service to be over. I declined lotion, massage, I just wanted the service to end. The "French tip" was not French tip. I asked if she could fix it and she "fixed" and goes do you like it or not? At that point I checked out. I'm like okay whatever I'll go somewhere else at this point. Front desk girl was super friendly, nice. I'd love for people not to just look at this place because it's pretty. I got cut twice, French tip is horrible. I was so sad about it because I drove 30 min to this place because of the reviews. It has been two years since I've done my nails and that's what I get. Nails grow, things can be fix but the experience stays forever read more

I've had the same issue as another reviewer. I got a new Gel X set shortly before Valentine's Day. Within the first week, two nails just fell off which has never happened before. The second week, two more nails fell off. Stunning. For about nine months now, I've been getting a new Gel X set here every time, and every time it lasted 3-4 weeks for me! I went in to get the first two nails repaired which takes time; I also tipped for the first one and then paid for the second one. Now, with two more nails off, I'm over trying to repair and currently trying to get an appointment for a completely new manicure. I'm wondering if you're using a new product/glue? read more

My new gel x set completely failed. Lost 4 nails in 2 days. Very sad. No idea how this could happen. read more

This salon is so beautiful and the technicians are wonderful. This is my go to place!

The salon itself is beautiful, and the staff are usually very friendly and welcoming, which I really appreciate. I truly wanted to love this place because my gel manicures were consistently good for several months and typically lasted about three weeks, which is great. Unfortunately, my most recent experience was disappointing. My nails chipped after only three days, and when I reached out around day five to request a fix, they initially agreed to correct it. The following day, I received a text saying I would need to pay a fee for the correction. I was willing to work with that and simply asked what the fee would be, but I never received a response, making it difficult to move forward with the appointment. Ultimately, I had to cancel due to the lack of communication. When I canceled, I specifically asked for a manager to reach out to me to discuss the situation. Again, there was no response - no text and no call which made me feel like my concern was fully disregarded. I really wish I could fully recommend this salon because the environment and staff are lovely, but the difficulty with communication and lack of follow-through when issues arise was frustrating and disappointing. I hope management can improve responsiveness and customer care moving forward. read more

Great experience, they do awesome at Gel X and other types of polish. Will definitely be coming back. 10/10 recommend!

absolutely worst!!!! every time I tried and booked an appointment in advance they still have you to wait for at least 30 min to start the service. All you get is thank you for waiting and I am sorry for the wait. it's a bummer because the place looks nice but if you book an appointment you expect to be checked in in time. will not go back! read more

This used to be my go-to nail spot, but their recent time management skills and lack of professionalism has me looking elsewhere. I discovered them quite a few months ago around the time they just opened, so getting same-day or even next-day appointments used to be super seamless. In recent months, it appears that they've gotten pretty booked and busy. While this is really great and I'm so glad to to see that they're growing, it's been incredibly frustrating to grab an appointment. My most recent pedicure appointment was rescheduled 5+ times over a two-week period. Many of these instances were due to them moving things around on the schedule last minute or being understaffed and overbooked. Extremely unprofessional. They have cancelled/rescheduled on me with less than a 30 mins notice at least twice. As someone who lives a bit of a distance away and makes an intentional trip out to Encinitas for this salon, I really did not appreciate this. read more

Don't bother making an appointment. Waited for 45 minutes with an appt and ended up leaving to go to the salon down the street.

This is my go to nail salon and I recommend this salon to my family and friends! The service is amazing and the staff are so friendly and professional and my nails always look sooo good! The only salon I go to now! read more

Inside the salon is beautiful. The employees are kind and polite. I went here twice for gel pedicures. The first time, the lady got a little too nipper-happy during prep work and both of my big toes were bleeding on the sides. There's no need to be cutting healthy skin away in the sidewalls like that to the point of actual bleeding, where it leaves a healing mark afterwards. She splashed the foot bathwater on them nonchalantly and it stung so bad when alcohol was used to clean the cuts. I was going to let it go but my nail also got a horizontal crack shortly after the second gel pedicure which has never happened to me before so I would recommend skipping prep work and doing that at home yourself. My nails were perfectly healthy before all of this I didn't say anything bc it was my first time getting a gel pedicure but after some research I have realized my experience is in fact not normal. read more

Everything was amazing!! I've been coming to Flora Blanc for a few months now, and they always do a great job. :)

Wow, wow! I have my go-to spots for a good manicure, but I wanted to try Flora Blanc after seeing it while I was doing errands in Encinitas! I'm Al for good ambience, and boy this place did not disappoint! Very aesthetic, you immediately felt luxury upon entering. I had an appointment but they do take walkins. Everyone there from check in, to the nail techs, are very friendly and tending to their clients. They of course offer you drinks and snacks, as well. Their seats are comfortable, clean, and overall spa - like feeling as it should! It's been two weeks since I've gotten my pedicure and hard gel manicure...and both still feel and show as of I just got them done yesterday! The techs are super attentive and very precise when tending to you and the service. You can tell they care and ensure the results are quality. I can't wait to be back! read more

Called in for a same day appointment, two manicures/pedicures. Whomever i spoke to on the phone was kind, prompt, and professional offering us multiple slots to choose from. Parking was easy there's street options or a pay lot underneath the shopping area where the studio is located. Upon arriving, the studio is clean and aesthetically pleasing. Staff are no nonsense keeping the noise low and music at an appealing but not overbearing volume. Was here for about 2 hours and very happy with both mani pedi sets. The owner also makes rounds to ensure excellent service and they offer bottled spring water and snacks- nice touch! All in all i would absolutely return read more

My first impression of the salon was excellent -- elegant, clean, professional, and attentive. I appreciated the complimentary water, coffee, and snacks, which added a nice touch. Since I was taking a long break from gel, I had been doing regular manicures and pedicures for about three months, coming in weekly for manicures. I also started requesting one of your specialists whose work I really liked, but I sensed that my preference wasn't received well by the team. On October 11, I tried your Deluxe Gel Manicure for the first time. Unfortunately, the experience left me disappointed. The specialist didn't seem pleased to see me -- I noticed an unhappy expression when the host told her I would be her client. Despite always tipping 20% (and sometimes feeling like more is expected), I left feeling unappreciated. Three days later, one of my nails started chipping and lifting. I came back to have it fixed, but the specialist was unfriendly and rushed through the process without acknowledging the issue. Two more nails chipped and lifted by the fifth day. I returned again yesterday and showed the problem to the host, who asked if it was my dominant hand (it is) and said she would speak with the owner. I've never had a gel manicure last only 3-5 days -- they typically last around 10 days for me. I truly thought I had found a beautiful, professional, and welcoming salon, but I now feel disappointed and unvalued, especially after spending $60 on what turned out to be a mediocre gel manicure. read more

Today was my first time at this salon and it was amazing! The ambiance is excellent-super feminine, relaxing, modern, and clean.
