    Watermelon Accent Nails hand-painted by Christina Matte pink is OPI Pink Flamingo & bright green is Summer Lime!
    Rachelle P.

    I was looking for a new nail salon and found this small/family owned business browsing on Instagram. Nail artist Christina hand painted watermelon accent nails with a reference picture I brought in. The matte pink she picked out is Pink Flamingo and the bright green is Summer Lime! I would definitely recommend this beautiful nail salon, as well as my nail technician Christina! She is an expecting mama that has been doing nails for a couple years and said she could confidently do any of the nail art I showed her! Hubby and I will definitely be back for pedicures, they have great prices! 15% new clients! SYOY! :-) * Music: Glitter Blast by Kevin MacLeod Site: https://filmmusic.io/song/4707-glitter-blast License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license

    Gateway Way nails and spa new location. Same great staff, beautiful establishment, sleek and modern. I came here for an eyelash appointment and left extremely happy. I was nervous because I haven't gotten lashes in a while but Christina made the anxiety free. Great quality service and hospitality. Not your average nail salon. Highly recommend!

    There pedicures are amazing and the place is gorgeous! Without the super high price tag

    Horrible manicure job
    Victoria A.

    I was kindly offered a complimentary manicure after my last poor experience with gel manicure chipping on the 3rd day. Well....it was even worse this time. I was cut, and pictures really speak for themselves. Oh, and my manicure didn't start until 30 minutes after my appt time, and the lady just left me soaking the old gel off to attend to newly arrived guest without ever coming back until I called for someone as I was running late. I'm never coming back as it was extremely stressful instead of relaxing.

    Scratched nail.

    I was charged $32 for removal of gel and a "manicure" My nails have never looked worse! They are extremely scratched, with layers ripped off. There is still chunks of gel on the sides of my nails. It was a really messy job, down to my cuticles being groomed. I've never had this happen before and I was so horrified, I ran out of there. It's going to take some time for my nails to heal and repair themselves, I'm super bummed and I hope this doesn't happen to anyone else.

    Valentines nails :)

    I love gateway nails! Always so clean and relaxing. The music is great. I hate going to other nail places and everyone just talks so loud or the lights are too harsh.. and gateway is just the opposite .. soo relaxing and the vibes are always good.

    I've been coming here for years now! 1 stop for many things. Eyelash, nails, pedi and wax! Excelling job and I leave stunning every time. Keeps me looking gorgeous!

We booked a couple of days advance for my daughter and her friend, to celebrate her friend's 12th birthday. Went back and forth a few times over text message with them about making sure the girls could be together for the kids scalp treatment (it's for ages 8-14) and an on the go facial- each service 30 mins, one hour total for each girl. The girls were excited for the special occasion. The shop looks like it is still being set up and just opened recently. Kind of a pop up type vibe / ambiance. When we arrived we were greeted but the person didn't speak English and when I confirmed we were there for two facials and two kids scalp treatments per the appt, she looked at the girls and started saying things we couldn't understand. We used a translator on her phone to try to communicate, she was telling me the "babies" had too much hair and they couldn't wash "it" all out. My daughter has long thick curly hair and her friend has straight hair a few inches past her shoulders. No one had asked about length or texture or anything at the time of booking. We waited for another employee to come but she also couldn't communicate in English. I asked them via their translator about the facials we booked, thinking since they seemed to be saying they couldn't perform the scalp service since they could not wash the girls' hair out in thirty minutes. It was unclear if they didn't have time or wanted us to pay more money. This was their advertised service, we had planned on it... no disclaimers about long hair needing anything special in terms of cost or time, nothing about anything being put in that was difficult to wash out, I still have no idea what the issue was. I asked if they were trying to get me to pay more for a different service? They couldn't explain or answer anything well. They pointed at another package that cost twice what we had booked ($40 kids package, they wanted us to do the $80 package for both girls). The facials were additional obviously, but every time I asked about them they ignored me and continued saying they could not wash the kids hair. I was hoping we could just do facials and salvage the bday celebration. We couldn't have any conversation past that, even with the translator. I took time off work, and this was the last day before school starts that the girls were available to celebrate. None of that is Elodia's problem, they likely forgot that it was a special occasion but judging by the way they handled it, they probably wouldn't have cared. They need to make sure someone with the ability to communicate works there to help guests and they definitely need to update their pricing and information, if age is not the determining factor as they state, and length of hair is, they should tell people that up front instead of trying the bait and switch when customers arrive. We spent quite a while trying to communicate and when it was evident they could not and or would not be able to perform any of the four services we booked, and were just going to keep saying the same few words over and over (who knows if they would have also told me the girls faces were too big and would also cost extra for facials LOL)... we left. Anywhere who cared about customer service at all would have just performed the service they sold and let us know it took longer and might cost more next time. I would have tipped generously and appreciated them making the experience work, especially since it wasn't our fault they booked services they don't seem to have any clarity for. We were able to find another activity and the girls still had a great day but we will have to reschedule the spa experience and I would definitely urge against anyone going here until they figure things out. It's not a place I'd ever try again or recommend to anyone I like.

But, I just had to focus on finding a more quality one and here's why: 1. Every time I had my fill with her, I'd walk out of her business with burning eyes. I could not drive right away because my eyes would be super watery and hurt. The burning would last off and on for about a week. Clearly, she doesn't use quality glue. 2. When "cleaning up" my lashes, she would pinch my eyelid at least once causing me to tense up. It was so awful, I've never experienced this before. 3. She would rarely fill every lash as she only filled what she could in one hour maximum. Rarely, did my lashes look like a volume set. I felt like I was just a number to her, trying to fit as many clients as possible into her schedule in one day. If you prefer efficiency over quality products, exquisite customer service, quality looking lashes, I recommend Ashley.

When I walked into Pretty Nails for the first time I was immediately greeted with a hello and a kind smile. Just a few minutes later a nice lady told me she had a seat ready for me and asked me what I was looking to do with my nails. I showed her a picture of what I wanted and she told me that she could totally do that for me. She did not rush at all which I appreciated immensely because places I have been to in the past usually rush the process based on their other scheduled appointments. The chairs they use for their customers are extremely cushioned and comfortable, while you sit they have light music for you to enjoy and different shows you might enjoy watching. When she finished my nails I was very pleased with the finished product as well as the price. Their prices are very affordable for high-school students like myself as well as for busy parents who may have more important things to spend larger amounts of money on. My gel acrylics were 45 dollars but with different designs or gold flakes added it was about 50 to 55 dollars. Usually nail places charge up to 60 to 70 dollars for acrylic gel with added designs. There are plenty of different nail salons in Citrus Heights such as Happy Nails, Lena Nails, etc, but Pretty Nails stood out from these places because of how affordable their prices are and how comfortable they make each and every one of their customers feel.

    Unfortunately, I left disappointed with my experience here. I paid $70 for a gel pedicure and…read moreanother $30 for basic nail prep with no polish.
