Initially I was greeted with excitement and happiness, but as the service progressed the man started to get aggressive with my hands. He burnt me a few times with the sander and filed my nails backwards without holding the base... not a fan of that feeling. I had a different color In mind and was told he had it, come to find out he didn't and just wanted the service. Nails came out nice, but didn't appreciate being lied to. It started to get busy and I believe he had an appointment at this time. That's when he started rushing (not quite paying attention) and his hand massage hurt. I have great looking nails, but I don't think I'll be back. It didn't feel good being man handled and rushed out. The vibe was definitely off. read more

Feet care all day! While visiting a friend in Temecula, we decided to get pedicures. She probably saw my atrocious feet and suggested it because of that lolol I don't blame her. I needed it! Long over due. We found a nail salon close by and Forest Nails was it. Compared to the other nail salons in the area, Forest stayed open later. They close at 8pm. The other nail salons close at 7pm. So that is why we went with this place. Our pedicures both came out good. I love my gel pedicure. And my feet are happy too! :) read more

Best place in town!! We always have a wonderful experience here. They are warm and always welcoming. They do an amazing job.

Excellent. I have tiny toenails, almost nonexistent, and other nail places always get polish on the skin. Jade did excellent job on my toes!! No polish on the skin and they look cute. She's super friendly and funny too. Forest did my fill and did an excellent job also. Only bummer was he said he doesn't really do nail art. However I also didn't ask when booking my appointment. This is his place and I love the decor. Appreciated them staying late too to complete my nails. Very cute spot with good service. I will be back! read more

Great services. Quality top notch and foot massage was so good. Staff was excellent and a laid back vibe. Great place to get your nails done. read more

I like that this place doesn't use artificial fragrances to try to mask odors. It's very clean. At my first visit, the smell was very neutral. Just clean air, the way I like it. During my second visit there was a customer in there getting some kind of nail treatment, so there was an unpleasant chemical smell. I wonder if an air filter might help with that? It dissipated soon after she left. The folks here are very attentive and responsive to your needs. They have an assortment of pedicure options, all of which use natural ingredients. The pedicure chairs are massage chairs and you get to control it yourself. The pedicures/foot massages are very relaxing. I will gladly return here for more visits! read more

Absolutely do not come here unless you want to be cut several times, overcharged & talked about while you are getting your nail service done. I came in at about 5:30, didn't leave til 6:45. I got a full set and a pedicure, the lady was nice (ish) but even after cutting me once, she continued to cut me in the same place, several times. Maybe 5. By the time she was done "shaping" my nails my cuticles were cut to hell, bloody & tender. She then sprayed my hands with alcohol which is assuming she wanted to clean whatever bacteria was transferred from the uncleaned tools she pulled out of her basket. I came in with a very specific simple idea in mind, medium almond nails with a nude base & 3 dots. I was given short almonds, with a chrome finish??? When I had said this isn't what I asked for she tried to over correct & say she'd do it, but the chrome being on there is already enough damage & I hadn't planned on staying in that nail salon any longer. I went back in for a refund because my nails were not what I had asked for, only to be given $30 and some attitude by the OWNER. I absolutely 100% would not recommend coming here, do yourself better & make an appointment at a real nail salon, not this terrible place. read more

I just wanted to give a shout out to Forest Nails Lounge! I had a good experience and wonderful service with the owner name " Forest" :-) He took his time to make sure my gel manicure fill looks good. This location is under Néw management so I will definitely comeback and use them again. Also, I would like to thank Tiffany another nail tech for changing the color of my pedicure and she fixed it and made it nicer! And thanks to Jade for taking my call and very efficient to put me on schedule after I rescheduled 3x Thank you all for a pleasant experience read more

After tonight I have to breakup with the place I really like that my husband and I used to happily spend $400 a month on :( I used to love getting my gel x nails here... I called for a GEL X APPOINTMENT... (the usual I get) they last me a long time ... I specifically asked for a technician who is experienced in gel X and the person on the phone told me yes, 6:15pm tonight, gel x. I arrive with grown out gel x , needing a GEL X FILL. the tech proceeds to put acrylic powder on me. I asked her to stop and do gel x fill not acrylic fill....that's the reason I come here! Solely for the gelx work!! She doesn't stop applying acrylic, calls over a gentleman who basically tells me "we have to remove them next time. Doing acrylic today." I just had these gel x put on 2 weeks ago at this same salon, I'm not in the market for wanting an acrylic removal and ripping up my nails! I do gel x fills for 4+ months here !! No removals!! I'm 6 months pregnant the fumes of acrylic right in my face are very bothersome, I'm very picky about the way acrylic feels on my fingers I am NOT AN ACRYLIC CLIENT I CALLED SPECIFICALLY FOR GEL X or I wouldn't have come tonight. 2 hours later my acrylics are finally done... bill $130 ...and I'm counting the minutes until I can rip these off! So upset!!! They should have been honest and said "sorry we can take your pedicure tonight but the gel x artist is not here today". Instead, they wanted the money even if it meant attempting to sneak a chemical I'm purposely avoiding on me to be able to bill me regardless. Terrible business ploy. I finally ask the technician who keeps apologizing at the end, if she even does gel x fills. She said no. We won't be back. I've been a customer here for 2 years, now I need to find a new nail salon who offers gel x and cares about the customer / what they're booking for read more

The area was very clean & cute but it was really expensive. For being expensive the quality of the nail designs was not it. I took me & my mom 3 & a half hours to get our nails done & pedicure because they only had 3 people. I should have walked away but I didn't think it would take that long. The nails are decent but most definitely not 85 dollars worth & the pedicure. I got the classic, tell me why that was the quickest pedicure ever the massage was barely 5 minutes & I paid $60 for that. You'll catch me going to best city nails for a bomb pedicure experience & its $5 cheaper. If you're ok with paying high prices for low quality nails then this is the place. The 3 people working were very nice read more

It was a Sunday and hard to find a nail salon that is still open after 6pm. I called this place it was around 5:30 coming from a nearby town and was told they will wait for me despite them closing at 6pm. I was coming from work that day and was in dire need of acrylic fill. The lady not only accommodated me but also provided an incredible service. Plus the best price I've paid for a nail service in town! Will definitely be back here. They are also open 7 days a week! Sweet!! read more

It was my first time at Forest Nails today. I called two hours before closing and they were able to squeeze me for a Deluxe Spa pedicure. The salon is clean and the staff were very friendly. My nail technician gave me the best pedicure I've ever had! Her attention to detail was flawless and she really took her time. My feet have never felt so smooth. The pedicure came with: scrub, callus removal, wax, and hot towels. It was so amazing, I can't recommend it enough. I will be back. read more

The old owner Forest was always so nice, and I knew I'd always get a nice quality set with a good kind experience. I haven't seen him in months and whoever is the manager now is very different. He will rush you to a seat, rush your color choice, and manhandle your hands during the process. I felt uncomfortable bringing anything up these past few times (the file was hot, the length was too long, there were snagging pieces, uneven, wrong shape etc). I don't think they're using clean tools anymore at all which is alarming considering the past 2 times I've gotten friction cuts from dirty files. the whole process for these visits has felt rushed, I don't feel like a valued customer and I feel rushed, dismissed, and quieted. For being such a cool place that was my go to before, this location has been really disappointing recently. I'm gonna find a new place :/ read more

Made an appointment for 5:30pm and walked out at 6pm after not being seen. They could have at the very least communicated when I arrived, how long the wait would be so that I could have gotten something to eat. I think 30 minutes is ridiculously excessive time to wait when you've made an appointment (I understand if I was a walk-in but come on) and who knows how much longer it would have been till someone took me. I like Sunny he does great work especially with the shaping of acrylics and the speed he works at, but I don't believe I will be coming back because I feel they have wasted my time and could have just let me know that they are too busy to take me before I rushed over here from work to make my appointment on time. It's unprofessional to overbook yourselves please keep that in mind for your other customers. And after reading the other recent reviews it seems like this isn't the only time it has happened to someone! The new management needs to do better if they want to stay in business. Disappointed that I have to find a new nail shop now ): read more

So me and my mom came to get our nails done. Looked good at first. Like it supported the military, which we both serve/served. We both sat down, and they started on my mom and not me. No biggie, there weren't many people there I understood. But then they sat another couple down and started on them before me. I decided to not even get my pedicure because she was almost done and they didnt even start on mine. So when we go to pay, I ask about military discount, and the lady said. Well my boss isn't here and I don't know how to. So no. Very disappointing. read more

Really grateful this place is open on Sundays, it's super convenient! I called the day before and they gave me an early appointment. I got a gel mani and one of the upgraded pedicures.

We discovered from the new owner, Forest, that they just reopened the shop. He managed a HUGE Salon in NY and knows what it takes to give Excellent customer service. They were very kind professionals. Wonderful massages!! I also got an overlay on my nails. Simply lovely job!

"I had a disappointing visit to this nail salon. The service was either rushed or excessively slow, which reflected a lack of attention to detail. Whether they were rushing through appointments or taking too much time, the results were below standard. I wouldn't recommend this salon for anyone seeking quality nail care. I initially gave it two stars because I thought they will fulfill my request for water after waiting for two hours; however, upon reflection, I've downgraded it to one star. Not only did they not bring me a cup of water, but I also felt completely ignored and neglected during my time there, like a testing mouse in a lab training session. read more
