Down in Tempe on a Friday afternoon & decided to scout out some place to get a much-needed pedicure. Where to turn? Yelp of course! It led me to Golden Nails Spa & I had an excellent experience here. You know what I really appreciated? The hospitality. Everyone smiled & was welcoming, from the one gentleman up front to the woman who gave me the pedicure & then the lady who answered the phone. This seems like something super simple, but I've been to nail salons where they are just not NICE. They are there to do the job but do not incorporate kindness & customer service...at a service-oriented business. Many nail techs seem like they REALLY dislike their jobs. And if you question how they're doing something to your hands or feet, or even ask?! They often act insulted. It's a fine line to tread. When it shouldn't be. I chose the VIP pedicure - see the menu! Treatment on my legs: * sugar scrub * hot stone massage * peppermint mask + hot towels * there was no paraffin wax for my feet but these other treatments made up for that Then "regular" stuff for feet: * soaking * cheese grating! * nail trimming & shaping - I asked for filing instead of cutting Thank you to Golden Nails Spa & "Ann" for a relaxing pedicure. read more

the man who had done my nails smelt of cigarettes and not just a little it was overwhelming. Very aggressive when applying acyclic and nail design. left with nail polish on my phone, and wet nails. Not to mention the shape. I already had square and somehow he made my nails look bulky. The vibe was okay but lots of distractions between coworker. showing videos and also him watching soccer while doing my nails. read more

I've been coming here for quite some time, and I see the same person every time. I always have an inspiration pic, and she does an amazing job giving me what I wanted. My nails are always beautiful when I leave. read more

Golden Nails Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I have been to this salon 3 times now and have had an excellent experience all 3 times! It is hard to find techs who are careful not to burn the cuticles or nail bed and I have had so many frustrating experiences before coming here. I pass MANY other salons to get to this one and will continue to do so. They also have a loyalty card that will earn $20 off after 10 appointments. It's not the cleanest or most organized salon I've seen, but the techs are nice and do a great job at a reasonable price! read more

I've been coming to this salon for about 3 years now, I always see Lyn. She is the best, she's very accommodating to the appointment times I request and will always try to work something out with me if she can't see me at the requested time. She always does an amazing job, exactly what I ask for and gets me in & out very quickly. Highly recommend coming to see her!! read more

I very rarely post a review so the fact that I'm taking the time to do this is either because it was extraordinary service or the worst service. Sadly, in this case, it was horrible service. Today was my first time coming to Golden nails. I called ahead and was told to come in at four even though I was able to come in earlier. I showed up at four but other people without an appointment were taken before me forcing me to have to wait. At 4:20 I was taken to a chair with not so much as an apology for it being so late. No water for me to at least soak my feet in while I waited. As of 430 a person who came in after me was being taken care of before me so I left. They may do good work, but I will never know since given this experience has made me want to never come back. Their customer service is severely lacking. read more

Lynn did amazing she's really kind, makes sure removal of acrylic does not hurt. She got my square shape perfect! And I felt like pricing was reasonable. Never has anyone done this quality so quickly. Pretty happy with my outcome read more

Golden Nails Spa - Pink Halloween themed nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I've been going there for about 6 visits now. Pedicures and eyebrow wax. There's always something. They get upset if you use your card to pay so much they brought an atm in. So you pay the fees. This time 2/20 I arrive 932. No one is there. I call and ask are you open today. "Yes be there soon running behind". Ok I understand. They open 947 not real apologetic. Brought their little daughter about 4yrs old. Ok it a small business. But she had her phone on so loud for cartoons it was horrible for 45 minutes. The over head music going wow and the TV. It was horrible. Way too much noise. I will not go back. I dont recommend. read more

I love the way Lynn does my nails!! I had my last nails on (picture with pink flowers) for a whole month before I came back for a new set! Anytime I show her my design/inspiration she gets it just right! read more

I am literally obsessed. I am so happy I stumbled upon this nail salon. I called in first and ask if they can take me the same day, once they said yes, I drove there and they sat me down immediately! The nail salon itself isn't the the most aesthetically pleasing but their hard work is!! I paid more than what i intended to but I'm so happy with the result I don't even care. This white and pink dip nail powder set was $65 plus tip. Everyone was so friendly and it seem like the other guests in the nail salon were all regulars which is a great first impression. I will definitely be back. read more

I ask for a regular pedicure.. I think everyone knows how a simple pedicure should look like. I did my pedicure around 3-4 pm came home and around 9:30 i got dressed to go out. I had heels on. At 1:30 am when I came home. I don't know if you could tell how thick my nail polish was. And you can't tell me that I didn't let them dry because I did. 4 pm to 9:30 is enough time to dry. read more

My nails are wounded from going to this salon. I have literal indentations in my nail bed that are so deep I they are almost into my flesh. If you can't use a drill without drilling into someone's nail bed you should not be using a drill. I do not recommend this place AT ALL!!!! My nails are literally like TISSUE PAPER!!!!! I am LIVID! read more

Worst pedicure ever I had to leave after they took off polish .. I came right before closing and it was dead nobody else there besides me and one other person. The lady who did my nails spoke no English couldn't file my nails right she didn't do anything right .. idk how this place has good reviews maybe the day time workers do better but the lady before closing was horrible I should of known because of how empty and dead it was on a Sunday I was there for 5 min and she was already trying to put the paint on . And also the pedicure tubs look like they got mold on the bottom I even made her change me chairs .. health department needs to check out the bottom of there pedicure tubs . Update - to there reply they said 15 min before applying paint first off they never applied paint and they charged me for a full pedicure when they should have charged me for a polish removal . I am visiting from Los Angeles and I've never had service such bad quality . If I could rate 0 stars I would. read more

Our first time at Golden Nails salon for Mani/Pedi services....... It won't be the last!! From the moment we entered, the salon had a quiet, soothing vibe and Manager Amanda greeted us and confirmed our services! LAN was so accommodating during my Mom's pedicure and gentle, always asking if she was comfortable! Jack did my pedicure and Mom's Acrylic fill mani! Fantastic skillset and we will come back for his services! Annie completed my mani for a hard gel fill. Upon Annie removing the old tips, she found a small area that looked like it was becoming infected! She advised to remove all old tips and switch to a Liquid Gel product! Would be healthier for my nails. Her knowledge of nail care/maintenance is superb!! My completed French Nails are stunning and I am SO happy with my new salon! Great service, personable staff, clean stations and basin!! I'm so glad I found Golden Nails, thank you Amanda and Staff!! See you soon!! :) Julie B and Mom read more

I've been coming to Lynn at Golden Nails Spa for months, if not a year now, and I am always happy with the results!

Golden Nails Spa - Nails done by Lynn, black French tip and purple and gold butterfly on the ring fingers - Nail Salons Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I came here because of the good reviews but the service was rushed and sloppy.. I asked for a full set almond French tip. I called a day in advance and made an appointment. The guy doing my nails was nice but every time I asked for him to fix something he just looked at me like why expression. You can clearly see in the photos the French is sloppy, lines are very wobbly, and one finger the white isnt even painted in. I was cut on a couple fingers when he was quickly drilling them down and not sure what this white stuff is around my nails but having to clean them up .. I wish I could get my money back.. I would not come here.. read more

Had my nails done Monday, it is Thursday and they are already chipping after they advised me the gel would last longer. $95.00 plus tip for mani/pedi on my nails, with gel and was not worth it. Disappointed as this was for a festival im going to, and wanted to have cute nails. read more

HORRIBLE BUSINESS PRACTICES HORRIBLE SERVICE DO NOT COME HERE i came in on monday and by sunday all my nails snapped off the woman applying my nails did not do correct application i have gotten hard gel many times and never seen someone do this type of application and she even seemed very unsure having to redo multiple nails over, struggling to get through the set i was unhappy when i left (bumpy, dips in the middle of my nail) but figure it would at least last me through valentine's day and i'll get them fixed the set didn't even last me through the week all but two nails completely snapped off i went back to try and resolve with the owner and she was so rude and dismissive ALSO REALLY SHADY THEY MAKE U PAY VIA ZELLE DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY !!! read more

Today was my second time going and so far I love this place. I've had a great experience both times. I request Lynn to do my nails and she's nailed it each time and is very accommodating to making any changes if requested. Pedicures are pretty good. I never notice the small details until I get home but to be fair no one is up in my feet to notice and the ladies are all very friendly! The gentleman that was up front today was also friendly! I'll definitely be a regular moving forward. read more

I opted for the mani-pedi foot spa. The tech was very skilled and very thorough. She asked me if the water was ok (it was) and was very efficient. Part of the treatment is hot towels and hot socks on your calves and feet. Very relaxing. The only downside was they don't accept credit cards so I used what cash that was left in my wallet ($80 on a $73 bill) so could not leave my usual tip. I called ahead to see if they could accept walk ins. read more

I'd shown the guy an inspiration pic on a square shaped nail and he stated he could do the simple design. Wrong...he made excuses after the fact that the nail shape prevented it. He instructed me to keep putting my entire hand under the lamp after only painting 1 nail tip at a time. The color was not nearly as vibrant as their nail color displays as it was on my fingers. He kept coming with excuses of why the nails were subpar. After only 1 week, the nails are lifted near the cuticle and look like horrible press-ons. When it's time to pay, he and a lady were pressuring me to pay them directly (vs the salon) via Zelle or cash app bc I wanted to pay by card, in which I kept denying. Made me think that they were doing some sort of business 'under the table'. Horrible. read more

What the actual F? I came in for a gel removal and classic manicure with regular polish. FYI, the remove gel polish with the drill bit, they did let us soak in acetone for a good 2 minutes before getting at your natural nails with another drill bit. The lady hit my skin and finger tips 3 times in my left hand. I was patient with her but highly frustrated as this is supposed to be a spa service. I'm not sure what's relaxing about this. I asked for rounded nails and she proceeded with clipping the sides and almost cut off a piece of my finger before I stopped her. I saw my left hand after she filed and I asked her to stop service. I am 100% dissatisfied and would never recommended this salon to anyone. My nails are so damaged, they have huge divots! Ugh! On top of that, they talked bad about me in Vietnamese. I am vietnamese and understood everything they said. So unprofessional. Don't waste your time at this place. read more
