    I like my nails short and red but thought manager Cindy's were gorgeous.

    I have been searching for a good nail salon in the San Leandro area for months. Sometimes you have to kiss a lot of frogs to find true princesses. Glossy Nail Lounge is everything you want in a nail salon. Quiet, affordable, friendly, excellent service and the prettiest salon I've ever been in. The classic mani/pedi was $70 - definitely a good price. I will be back! Next time. I might try some of those amazing mat gel nail colors - I can't even begin to describe how pretty they are in colors I've never seen offered. Thank you Cindy, Tara and Anna for taking good care of me! - Kathleen

    Just tried this salon for the first time and I'm glad I gave it a short! Got builder gel nails and a brow and lip wax with Tara -- she was so detail-oriented and didn't rushed, which I really appreciated. My nails came out perfect. The salon itself is brand new, super clean, and has such a calm, luxury vibe. Plus it's in a plaza with plenty of parking, which makes it so convenient. Definitely recommend!

    I came here for prom nails and I love them! Great service and she did such a great job. The inside is so nice and spacious. I would definitely come here again.

    What I got. I hella forgot to ask for the gold stripe which would've he made it pop.

    Alrighty, a new nail spot in the area and as you may know nail shops and taco trucks have saturated the market to the point of low return. Requested a builder gel fill and received said service. Along the way my lovely nail check with me to ensure I was as satisfied could be with a fill that was a bit past its removal date. Vibe was soft opening but has a lot to offer and an abundance of potential. My two gripes is a asked for a little trim on my nails and was initially told that there would be an extra charge but after I said no, I'll keep the length and she proceeded with the service. She said you know what actually I'll do a little trim for you. Appreciate this and gladly accepted but I do feel it should be a service that is free of charge when paying for your services. Second gripe is I have been growing my natural nails since I had back surgery and they are thin and weak but steadfast, and haven't broken completely on me yet the tech kept trying to sell me on gel X, which is quicker and easier for them. I get it but at the same time that's not what I asked for when I came in. So please dnt tell me my nails are thin and will look ugly and not shaped good because thats how they look after my previous nail work has been filed off and gel x would be better. If the builder gel is filed down and filled properly, then the nails shouldn't look ugly, thin or weak, which is why I proceeded with my builder gel anyways and I'm completely satisfied. I will definitely be returning and giving them a second chance, but do you think that they have some work as far as when it comes to upsell and keeping to appointments. Had I done a removal of the old set and started a new I think it would've looked a lot better. I do have to add, but they don't do typical manicure stuff before the gel fill which I do think is needed in order for a proper filter to stay.

    The salon is very pretty & the service was great. Anna did a wonderful job on my pedicure!

    A new place in the neighborhood to treat yourself. I got my Gel-X nails and a pedicure done--excellent service and attention. 100% recommended.

    Gel manicure chipping after one day!

    I wanted to like this new business but it was bad from the second we walked in. I made an appt for me and my daughter at 1pm for a couple of mani/pedis. We arrive a couple minutes early and the crew immediately looked confused and spoke to each other in their native language. I was then told they were running a few minutes behind and asked if we can wait. Only after I asked how long the wait would be, once again, they spoke amongst themselves and I was told by a guy that seemed to work there, to sit in the chair for a pedicure. The guy clearly was trying to fill and get me started before I would decide to leave. He had me soak my feet in lukewarm water, borderline cold. I chose a color from the book I was handed an he came back with a completely different color. He couldn't find the color I wanted so I chose a second, same thing happened, so I chose a third. No lie, we went through 6 colors until he found my 7th choice. It was not even a weird color, I went from different shades of brown to burgundy. It was almost 2pm when I again asked when will my daughter be serviced. I was told they were almost ready. I was finally offered some tea at that point and they asked my daughter to sit in the pedi chair just so she can get a massage while she waits. After about another 30 minutes, they had her sit at the mani station to get started on her nails. After a low level pedi, I was directed to the mani station and told to sit. Apparently, they expected me to sit on the floor because there was no chair!! To make things easy for them, I just told them to use the same color on my finger nails that they used on my toes. I have to say, the ladies were all very nice but the service...ugh! Once I was done, I sat to wait for my daughter. At that time, they apologized and told me they actually gave our appt away to a couple of ladies that got there right before we did. Never asked for the name on the reservation, just gave them our appts! Came time to pay. And you would think they would have offered the same discount they gave the ladies that took out appt..but no! I had approx 4 people hovering over the credit card machine and actually watched how much tip I was including. I left a small tip just because the ladies were nice and apologetic. I get in my car and I find out they upgraded my daughter's pedi after she told them she just needed the basic one. After ALL THAT, I wasn't going to write a review because I wanted to give them a benefit of the doubt because they were a new business, but ONE DAY after my mani the gel polish on one of my nails is already peeling off!! I spent over $200 and now I'm really upset! I highly do not recommend this nail salon. What a disaster!

    Overlay manicure, but I didn't feel it's thicker like the last place I've been to.

    Finally, I found a new place in the area that provided great service that you can really enjoy manicure and pedicure.
