I was pretty disappointed with my experience here. I showed a photo of the design I wanted, including different colors and small hearts for Valentine's Day. Unfortunately, the nails came out very plain with no hearts at all, which was the main detail I asked for. The polish also looked bubbly and uneven. When I mentioned it, I was told they were fine, which was frustrating because they clearly didn't look smooth. I also didn't feel much communication during the appointment, so it was hard to make adjustments. Overall, the service didn't match what I asked for or expected. I'm hoping this was just an off day, but based on my visit I wouldn't likely return. read more

A great experience! Christine took my ugly feet and now I can wear sandals! And I had a French manicure. Very nice, Thank you Christine! read more

I am a senior who needed my toenails cut. In Crescent City they want $50. Golden nails only charged $15. It was worth the drive. Great service, fantastic prices and easy to find. read more

They are always available for me to drop in for a same day pedicure or gel polish. The prices are great. I have been going there for 3 years so far. They are friendly and fun to joke with. read more

Do not go here. Very unclean and dirty. I've gotten fungus here because they don't sanitize their tools and equipment properly. The owner is also super rude. I don't understand how this place even stays open. It's really bad all around. read more

Made an appt for dual pedicures. The gal fixed an ingrown nail for my mate. Several days later his toe was feeling much better. The two ladies that work there were nice and we both had a good experience. It's not a fancy salon but the massage chairs are nice and the leg massage was great. We would go back. read more

This establishment had a very friendly vibe to it. The nail tech who did my nails was gentle, very nice, and with a reasonable price for such a small town. I will recommend you going to Golden Nails for very high quality nails and or pedicures. read more

I friend got a bad toe infection here. The gentleman stabbed her toe with scissors. It was swollen, infected and painful for several weeks. Avoid this place at all costs. read more

Not the greatest pedicure experience I've had. My French tip was done hurriedly as there was other clients waiting and the sloppiness was noticed. You can see from the pictures that the curving wasn't done well. The pedicure itself just felt rushed and rough. Most of it didn't feel relaxing and I could tell she wasn't taking her time. It just felt like she was trying to get things over with! No concentration to detail at all. Also, the equipment and tools seem very out of date and old. I question the sanitation of most of the items. read more

They are quick but thorough, always A+ artwork!!! Happy vibes! Had a full set, red, ce out spectacular!!!

The website has fake images. Inside is old, dirty and rundown. There are three old pedicure chairs and a few old tables for nails. Very disappointing experience! They are deceiving customers by making the images on the website seem like a relaxing nice spa when it's gross and needs major updates. Take your business elsewhere! read more

First time coming here and I was skeptical because of the bad reviews.. but to my surprise, the customer service was better than I thought and she truly seemed to care about the work she was doing. This was my first time getting French tips, and I am pleasantly surprised read more

Poor customer service. The women here don't allow you to speak or disagree with a finding. They assume you're going to complain and they won't allow you to finish a sentence. On several occasions, my friends and I have noticed that they only cater well to the older white female population. They act very prejudice. Please know the difference between racist and prejudice before you dismiss this review. I can't prove that they are racist but they sure act similar to those who are. The quality of service here is not even that good. They need to allow paying customers to make decisions about what they want for their nails and not them making all the decisions for something that you don't want. They are just not consistent with they're professionalism. ONE STAR is very appropriate for this business. read more

I went to get my nails done today, the lady was very rude she was rushing a lot. She stopped doing my nails and did two other people's pedicures, she started on my nails again and just completely rushed through it all. My nails are crooked and she missed spots on my nails. read more

We visited this nail salon from out of town and we were super excited to get a pedicure! It's a small cramped little place and that was fine and the pedicure itself was decent. However when we went to checkout they said our total was $63 for one pedicure, and $126 total, plus a 3% charge for using a debit card! Which made the total $129. $63 seemed extremely steep for the service we received, when we brought this to the attention of the owners they said it was $28 for a regular pedicure. Since we requested a deluxe pedicure, it was an extra $10. Coming to a total of $38. Which there was no problem there as all this was stated on signage throughout the store. But then... they charged us $15 for gel polish. And an extra $10 for callus remover. Leading to a total of $63 per pedicure! Neither the gel polish nor callus remover price were listed anywhere in the salon; nor were they told to us by the people doing the pedicure. It felt like they just made up those prices as they went. Their argument was that they worked hard on our feet? So the price was accurate? Umm what? I've gotten pedicures done for years and I have never heard of such outrageous prices for gel polish! If it was at least listed that the price was $15 we would have passed on gel nail polish altogether. When we complained the lady working there (who we assumed was the owner) had to call the company who ran her credit card machine because she didn't know how to void a transaction. So now I've been charged twice on my debit card so hopefully one will fall off. Very unprofessional. On top of all that one of the other patrons, had to butt her head in and argue with us Save your money. Don't come here. read more

Just not happy with my nails. I made an appointment DAYS in advance. I asked for a certain style and showed her a picture. She said she could do it. Then when I am in the seat she changes her mind and tells me I should have requested more time, refuses to give me what I asked for (which was a simple pink and white ombre). Instead I came out with very basic white tips (some which are torn/ cracked but used anyway by slapping acrylic on them). Clear acrylic with bubbles/ indentations. Gel which cured with ridges. And superglue adhered to my thumb which I had to pry off in chunks. Just an overall shoddy job. It ruined my day and I almost started crying at how disappointed I was. I asked for something, she said she could do it, but she gave me what SHE wanted. It hasn't even been 24 hours - I can't stand these and am soaking them off. To make matters worse, she adds a $3 up charge simply because I used my debit card. Really? This is 2023! I always go for the underdog and rarely post bad reviews but this was a waste of $120. Funny thing is I would have gladly paid DOUBLE if she just was able to do a QUALITY job. I am sorry i have to post this but you would have earned my respect had you at least been truthful and said "no, I cannot do ombre nails." read more

The people are hardworking folk who take very good care of you while working on your nails. Very clean.

I came in on a Friday afternoon, there were only two people working. Both were sweet. The nice of the salon was crowded and pedicure chairs have tape on them. So it isn't a 5 star amazing salon. But the man did a great job on my pedicure. read more

I've been going here for several months and today it was horrible. Christine has done an ok job on my nails in the past but David basically just sucks. The pedicure was quick without the usual relaxing foot massage or any of the other things I expect from a decent pedicure. He bumped my toe when putting on my sandals, gauging the polish and never said anything. I didn't see it until I got home. Then the gel French manicure was the worst. Uneven, blurry white top, he didn't listen to me about adding tips to two nails that had broken off and when I got home I had to file them all because they were rough. Then he overcharged me!! Do not let him perform your services!! read more

Excellent quick professional services! A Very sweet couple run the place. Walk ins welcome but I would make an appointment read more

Rudest Person Ever! I went in to have my nails done for the first time ever! So I was really excited and looking forward to having pretty nails and doing something nice for myself. I made an appointment and came in on time. The lady was rude from the beginning. She asked me what I wanted and I said acrylic nails, but wasn't sure about the process. I explained I had never had my nails done before several times and asked for advice. The lady told me that I "Don't know what I want" So to go home and come back when I do know!" And NOT in a nice way. I literally had to ask for her to please do my nail, which she didn't do all that great. The place is dirty. She rushed through everything and didn't say one word to me while doing my nails. Don't waste your money! read more

I was visiting from out of town and wanted a pedicure. I read the reviews and was a little skeptical. I made an appointment and had a pedi with gel polish. It was a decent pedi and I liked their choice of several polishes. I would go back. The salon itself could use a little TLC though. read more

NOT SANITARY AT ALL! I got a fungal infection after getting a pedicure and manicure. Completely disgusting

I am from out of town and needed a pink fill. The woman who was there must have been owner, manager and staff. I called first and when I arrived it was empty. In 5 mins there were people waiting. She did a great job, but she needs staff ! There was a definite Feeling of being rushed. But she was good! The salon need tlc, though. Sanitary practices? I'm not sure. read more

Worst nail experience ever She rushed me out and did a horrible job painting my nails. Worst customer service, I recommend not to step foot in this establishment. You will not receive quality anything ! Also this place is very dirty and the lady went from cutting someone's ingrown toe nail to touching my hands for a manicure without washing her hands !! Gross!! read more

Very very unsanitary, while getting a manicure she had filed my cuticle causing it to bleed THEN told to get off of my phone as she proceeded to be on a FaceTime call as she did my nails and as I was waiting for my grandma to bring me a little extra money she had told me I needed leave and get a ride!! Very disrespectful and did a lousy job, I payed 55$ for something I could have done at home with a Kiss Kit read more

She was very sloppy and extremely rough. I have bubbles in my polish and uneven nails. I have just moved here and needed a fill horribly bad. Never will go back to them. read more

My husband and I called on a Saturday for a Sunday appointment while visiting in Gold Beach for our anniversary. The man and woman (David and Christine?) were so sweet and we had an amazing pedicure experience. Thank you for getting us in At the same time with short notice! Will be back next time we are in town! read more

Can I do zero stars? If your just a visitor in town, just say NO! to Golden Nail. Even when it is the only place open with walk ins! Took my pregnant friend in to get manicures done. I could have done a better job myself. Worst $20 I've ever spent. That's one single simple manicure not including a tip. I had to ask to have my nails the same length. And they still aren't. I have rough spots on my uneven nails. There was no soaking of my hands or putting lotion on. *Update: I did go home and do a better job myself. read more

For those who seem to think that this wasn't a good stop, DOH! CHRISTINE is great! Shop is clean and she worked really hard to make my feet look perfect! Affordable and easy to get to! read more

Unfortunately I did not have a very good experience here. I decided to treat myself after an awful week. I never have my nails done so I was excited. When I walked in I was not greeted very friendly. She just asked, "what do u want?". I told her and she told me to sign in. I did and sat down. They claim to take walk-ins but they are not properly staffed to accomodate it, they seem very put out. So if you really want to go here, I recommend making an appointment ahead of time. I walked in on a Saturday and there was only 1 person working. I waited for a while (I'd say 35-45 minutes) and she was still not finished with 2 ladies before me. I knew I would be there several hours by the time she got to me and finished a full set of nails so I left. I am not sure why they would not be staffed better, especially on the weekend. But that, combined with no friendliness turned me off and I will not be back. Bummer read more

This was the best pedi ever - Mary is an artist! I got the new Deluxe Spa Pedi and it was amazing. I wish I would have taken before and after pictures. I have been to a number of very high end salons but no more. read more

Had a wonderful experience getting a regular pedicure . Place was clean and technicians listened to what I wanted. Next time getting the deluxe! read more

My friend and I went there today, we were disgusted in knowing that they don't sanitize there tools in between each customer... We watched her briefly rinse off the tools with water in the back and use them on someone right after. Also the lack of pride in the business is greatly shown by the torn ups chairs and overall of cleanliness of the place. I would not recommend spending you money her. Super friendly service but does not make up for all the negatives... read more

Rudest customer service I've ever seen, made an appointment for my daughter to have acrylics put on. Lady seemed annoyed the whole time with everything, one of the nails was hit on the dryer and when I asked if she could re do the nail polish you would've thought I asked her to give me a ride to California. Threw her file down and proceeded to shout at my daughter. "Her fault!" We were paying first time customers that will NEVER return! read more

Great services and fair prices-I just wish they had more colors! All in all a great place to stop on the coast if you would like some R&R

I have been in Brookings for 2 years and have always gone to golden nail. Christine is very acomidating and will try to fit you in when possible. In the summer she does have extra help but during the rest of the year there usually isnt enough work for 2. I happen to think she does a great job, I see her cleaning everytime Im there . and as far as the person comenting that she isnt american well actually she is , there is more then one type she just had to work a little harder to be one then those of us born here.Its called becomeing a citizan . I have a busy scedual and cant always make appt, so sometimes I have to hang out or come back later but most of the time she can get me in. read more

The salon is extremely dirty and furniture worn. The actual acrylic nails were disappointing. Will not go there again.

My nails looked great but the salon was not very clean and the manicurist did not observe basic hygiene practices. I happened to have my own file/buffer or she would have used the same one as I watched her use on 2 people before me. Although I like the outcome, it isn't worth possibly getting a nail fungus or something. I won't go back. read more

Decided to go into this nail salon because it would be a lot quicker than if I were to go to a private salon. the prices were fair, although the shop is definitely not the cleanest and she painted my nails good, but didn't really take her time like other places I've been to. but for a "walk in" type salon it's pretty much basic if you were to go anywhere else. I would come back, but I don't know if I will just because it was so dirty in there. but the lady was nice. read more
