I am writing this because it needs to be said. My experience at Forum nails, initially, was not the best. It wasn't bad it just wasn't the best until I sat in Van's chair! She was very kind and attentive. She spoke to me not just as a customer but as a fellow human being. I've been seeing her for quite some time now and she has become more like a sister! Her work matches her heart, pure and flawless. You will get nothing but positive energy and great nails when you see Van at Forum Nail Salon. Book with her today! Positive energy only!!!

In, out, clean, and friendly are just some words to describe what is happening at Forum Nails. You come in for your service and you are out in a decent amount of time. I love this place!

So today I come and get a fill. He tells me CASH Only!! I go to the Barbershop 2 doors down and get some cash from the ATM. The next paying customer, the older gentleman gladly accept her debit card. I'm like oh hell Naw you know you ain't getting a tip now and I will NEVER come back. I felt like that is some racist shit!! I can go to Tracy's Nails in Sacramento or Kim's Nails in Oakland and get decent treatment and they will accept my debit card as well as my CASH!! You FORUM NAILS

Van does my nails she's so patient and caring she allows me to be creative with my nail journey I definitely recommend going here you won't regret it prices are affordable place is clean and quiet

thank you Tony

Highly recommend coming to forum nails for any nail work needed! Sophia and her family are absolutely great! Pay attention to detail I go to Sophia for my nails and highly recommend Tony for your pedicure needs. I have an "ugly" nail on my right foot and he brings it to life.. gives me confidence to wear sandals in public

Forum Nails is an eight month old/young nail salon in Pittsburg/Antioch. They're located near the mall, in the same plaza as double dragon chinese restaurant. I learned of this nail salon via word of mouth. My cousin and aunt boasted about the clean environment and quality service. I made a 5 o'clock appointment for a friend and myself. I was a little late, I arrived by 5:07 pm. The salon was quite busy, so I was patient and waited. I did tell David (the nail tech by the door) that I had an appointment. Over 20 minutes went by and no one had checked in with me. My friend arrived late, but it didn't matter because our appointment was not being honored and we were having to wait anyway. At 5:45ish ~ we were finally being helped. I needed to have my gel removed and redone but based off the service I was receiving, I opted to simply remove the gel. This service is $10 and they don't even clean up your nails. Another major problem we encountered was communication. Hardly anyone here spoke fluent English, making it extremely difficult to get the correct service! My friend requested to have her gel removed from her feet. She wanted a color change with gel polish. The girl who did her pedicure didn't understand English and her colleagues failed to translate. My friend almost overpaid, then as we went to leave her nail polish was smudged! Leading her to inquire about what polish was actually on her toes. After solving this confusing mystery, we had to wait an additional fifteen minutes for them to DO IT RIGHT the second time. As for my pedicure, my nail was smudged in second. The colored nails they have you choose from do not match the actual color they bring over. It's utter madness. I arrived at this salon at 5:07 and didn't leave until 7pm. I missed the Warriors game, because despite there being multiple televisions at this salon no one knows how to change the channel! I'm so upset that I had my friend waste her time and have such a negative experience. I spent $25 for a pedicure that was not relaxing, timely, and the nail polish wasn't even what I wanted. Then I paid $10 to remove gel, only to come home and cut, file, and finish the job myself. It's so hard to find quality nail service in Antioch or Pittsburg. Leaving me with no choice but to invest in small business in Walnut Creek and Danville. I am truly disappointed with my visit to Forum nails. I won't be back and I would NOT recommend them.

Butchered my friends feet! Not foot... FEET. Foot soaking tub should not be bloody! Did not acknowledge. Still charged. Left with 3 open wounds!!Two days later could not walk, infection setting in. Returned to let owner see and was offered a manicure?? Unbelievable!

3-D nail Artist Van at Forum Nails
Maureen G.

I have been coming here about 4 years now, my regular lady moved so I opted to still come here and was recommended to Van. Besides being very professional, personable & extremely following the request for specific colors & design, Van will fit you into her schedule at what is convenient for you, not herself. Prime example was today, I caught her on her way out of work with an appointment in Oakland she had about her new car, she said "I will re-schedule, please come in & I will wait for you" Her mannerism as well as her artistic ways are very noteworthy. Van does the Gel nails & any kind of design you show her, Van can do it. Last summer Van did 3-D Hawaiian Flowers on my nails, absolutely gorgeous and many compliments, but today I asked for something very Pink n Pretty Van delivered!! My nails last 5-6 weeks & do not pop off or hurt. I'm giving Van a 5 star review, because she rocks!! Last year I moved out of Antioch & I will continue doing the hour commute to have Van at Forum Nails do my nails

Love this!

Rarely do I run to YELP after a first visit, but I totally have to share .... In need of a mani/pedi and not wanting to go to my usual spot (never consistently good), I called Forum about an hour and a half before closing to see if they could get me in for a quick mani/pedi. The person on the phone told me to come at 7 PM. Wait, you want me to come at closing time?! YES, they were "busy and understaffed" and actually stayed late for me, AND did not rush my mani/pedi at all. Advice: GET THE DELUXE PEDI (they have several) --- I got the olive oil one --- my feet are so freakin' soft, even my man said something! Haha. Totally worth $40 (they have $25 and $30 pedi's too!).

Leslie N.

I came here with a friend bc this is her spot, and her nails are always poppin. Her regular nail tech is Sofia who already has two people ahead of us so we settled for the avail techs. Now idk the name of the lady I got but she told me after gluing on the extension nail that she doesn't do acrylics. And that I had to wait for the guy who does. So I waited. But he also already has clients so she came back to finish me. They didn't come out horrible but I have gotten better from elsewhere. The shape I wanted was coffin and only after I got them did I realize the shape was a lil wonky. My nail broke five days later and the rest are already lifting

See all

I needed to get a soak off asap and was doing some research to find a great nail place since my…read moreboyfriend lives nearby. I'm so happy to have chosen this salon because I'm obsessed with my nails! I chose a very simple, natural color to have every day and Sophia delivered. She was very careful with the nail drill and when I expressed that it felt hot at one point, she was more cautious afterwards. Cuticle removal was also meticulous and not once was I cut. The gel polish was applied evenly and there were no bubbles or unevenness which I appreciate--being picky with my nails. The salon itself was very clean and spacious, with many spa chairs for pedicures and manicure tables. I paid a total of $51 ($40 for gel mani, $10 soak off--with service, and $6 tip but 10% off when you pay cash) which is quite reasonable compared to other places anywhere in the bay. I will definitely be rebooking with Sophia and recommend her to anyone just looking for a great gel mani.

Walked in because they had availability and their reviews were decent. I was there to get a…read moreregular pedicure. The price is $48 per regular pedicure ( not gel) and $5 for takeoff. So a basic pedi was $53 without tip. So with tip you're looking at close to $60. For polish. Honestly, for that price you can get gel and probably a tip included at other salons. Their prices are $13 - 20 higher than other comparable salons, I don't mind paying extra for a specialty/ premium pedi but this is not the case . I'm not sure what justifies this high price, but I will not be coming back. *edit after business response : high sanitation practices should be standard and not considered a luxury. The prices are still higher than other salons.*
