GV Nails is the best pedi I have had in our area. I get the $50 deluxe and pay $20 extra for the gel since it last so long. The deluxe pedicure last between 70-90 minutes. Hot stone, paraffin treatment, great massage. read more

Filthy salon. I came in and sat down next to somebody else's dirty clipped fingernail. I have strong natural nails and they drilled them down so far that I have a big dent down to my nail bed (on all of my nails). They clearly do not clean their stations. Doesn't seem they sweep or mop. That should be done daily in a place of business where they are clipping nails and leaving them on the floor. They also do not clean their station in between customers. And the gel nail polish dryers look like they've never been cleaned. They have caked on dry lotion and smudges from prior guests. They are disgusting and I cannot believe they expect people to put their hands in them. read more

Took my daughter, who is 6, for her 1st mani and pedi. The staff was kind and made us feel welcomed. They even have kid prices, which I appreciate as a mom. I'm sure we'll be going back as my daughter loved the experience and our nails look great. read more

Grass Valley Nails - Services and pricing. January 2026. - Nail Salons Near Me - Grass Valley, California

My latest attempt in my ongoing quest for a local nail technician brought me to Grass Valley Nails. I needed a pedicure (which turned out great btw), a noticed the nails of the woman in the chair next to me looked really good. Her recommendation brought me back to GV Nails for an appointment with Tammy. Tammy had her work cut out for her when I arrived, as my previous technician audition had not stood up well. I am--so far-- pleased with the results! The salon is reasonably clean and bright, centrally located and attached to a parking lot, which is convenient. They have reasonable prices and offer a pretty wide range of services. My one criticism is that Tammy was overbooked and I did have to wait about half an hour past my scheduled time, but she was very apologetic and offered another technician if I preferred not to wait. Fingers crossed, I won't have to continue to drive back to Sacramento every month for a manicure. read more

I've been getting my nails done at Grass Valley nails since pre-COVID... I tried it several local Salons when I started getting my nails done after all of the restrictions were lifted. I landed back at GV Nails after trying the others and have been a loyal customer ever since. Kay does my nails and toes, but the others are all very good as well. I highly recommend this place! Great service, fun personalities and clean environment. read more

I'm visiting the area from out of town. I typically have dip on my nails and they're my natural nails. Well, I snapped 2 off and needed tips, so I stopped in 9/5/25. First of all, my cuticles are all cut up from the first technician. I have small scabs on 5 of my fingers. On top of that, my right hand nails (who were worked on by a second technician) are completely slanted. I mentioned it a few times and the technician would then remove my tips to start over. She then told me the reason they're shaped differently is because it's hard to match the style of a real nail compared to a tip. I've never had that issue before. My nails are always the same shape when I leave a salon. The nails with tips are also not flat. They have grooves all throughout, even my real nails do now too. The nail technician could tell I was disappointed, so she offered me $5. She then proceeded to argue with me why my nail shape was slanted again. Again, I'm not from the area, but I get my nails done at least twice a month every month and have been for years. I've *never* had an issue where my nails were so noticeably crooked. I visit Grass Valley 2-3 times a year. I usually don't need my nails done during my trip, but if I ever do in the future, I will never come back here. This is by far the worst experience I've ever had. Please look elsewhere for your nail needs. read more

I reserved an appt for a $50 deluxe pedicure. My first time here when I checked in they had me select my nail polish color, which I did. Kay suggested we use a quick dry gel polish for a $70 price. I specifically said 'NO THANKS! I have the time to wait for the polish to dry. I want the $50 pedicure" and pointed to it on the menu" She went ahead and did so anyway and they charged me $70. WOW, I would have given Kay 5 stars and a $10 tip had she just HONORED the pedicure I reserved and listened to my communications. WILL NOT BE GOING BACK. read more

I have been here twice and both times it is amazing! My nails have turned out perfect both times, there's good energy in the place and all of the workers seem happy to be there. I will definitely be back! read more

I had Tina in station 2. She has become worse as time goes on. When doing a full set acrylics last week she cut my nail beds, sawed at my nail pads, drew blood. I shreiked 6 times and she called me a baby. I was traumatized. She did want me to wash my nails either. I just went to urgent care and I have an infection and must take antibiotics! Looks like my back surgery this coming Monday may be canceled. Ive been waiting months.serious pain. Im furious. My friend Lisa said she won't go to Tina anymore for same reason. Im furious read more

I don't often leave negative reviews, but my hands were brutalized yesterday at Grass Valley Nails. I went for a dip manicure and left with 8 of 10 fingers bleeding. I come here about every 4 to 6 weeks and service has been uneven at times, but this was the worst. The manicurist was someone who has done a great job in the past. I don't understand what happened. The photos are from this morning when I woke up and my left hand fingers were bleeding again. Also, the nails don't look very good -- they're filed at different angles and there are heavy ridges of polish at the base of some nails. I should have stopped her but I didn't realize how bad it was while it was happening. Near the end, when she was using a drill file, blood splattered in a circular pattern like in a miniature chain saw massacre -- there was bright red blood her hands and apron. I'm pretty sure she put those files etc back in the box without cleaning them. WTF. Also, general comment: The last three times I have set up appointments they either had no record of the appointment or the person the appointment was with said they hadn't been told about it. read more

Beware... they will charge you more than what's on their menu pricing. I paid $80 for a pedicure ($60 on the menu) with gel polish ($10 extra charge) and my cuticles are inflamed today due to snipping healthy tissue, the tech didn't wear gloves and none of the equipment was sanitized. She just grabbed each tool out of a basket on a cart that likely wasn't even washed between customers. I'm only giving 2 stars because the tech was very nice and my pedicure was relaxing aside from the nipped cuticles. read more

Absolute best salon in Nevada County. I've been going here for years and I've never had a bad experience. Amazing and super kind staff. I love every single one of my manicures and pedicures.

If you're looking for a great mani/pedi this is the place to go. read more

Jenny is absolutely fantastic. While I'm sad she's only in the shop on Wednesdays now that she's gone back to college, she's definitely worth rearranging my schedule so that I can schedule with her. From the first appointment with Jenny I was very happy to have found her. After several "failures" at various salons around town, I booked with Jenny. I showed her what I wanted for my nail design, she did it perfectly. No matter what design I've brought to her, she'd done it. She is an accomplished free-hand nail artist. I would highly recommend her! read more

My mom and I have tried to love this place but they never keep there appointments and always leave you to do other nails which makes your appointment last extra long. They fight in front of customers and the polish never lasts and they fight you to spend more money saying it will last longer which it never does. We're done going here sadly. read more

We LOVE grass valley nails! My mom and I are newer to the area and tried out numerous nail salons before we found grass valley nails! The ladies here are amazing! Quality work and quick! When you have a busy schedule it's nice to be in and out! We love their delux pedicure and dip powder selection! This salon is so posh! It's beautiful inside everything is colorful and bright! They always offer water or Vietnamese coffee which I love!! They are all around just wonderful to be clients of! I use Michele and she is awesome! So friendly and fun to chat with while I get my nails done!! Don't go anywhere else! read more

I just moved to town and decided to give Grass Valley Nails a try. You know how hard it can be to find a good & compatible nail tech! I called to make an appointment and was seen the same day at the time I requested. The receptionist was polite and efficient and I was assigned to one of the techs for a fill. I was seen on time and my nails looked perfect and amazing. I'm here right now getting my next fill! Highly recommend! read more

I just moved to grass valley and have tried many nail salons here but have been disappointed. Today I walked in to GV nails and left knowing I have found my nail place. They did an amazing job filling my dip and applying gel color exactly as I wanted. Updated Jan 2020 I have been 3 times now and I have been happy every time! I finally got to have a deluxe pedicure done and it was fantastic! They scrubbed, massaged and cleaned out all my nails and fixed all my almost ingrowns perfectly! read more

I finally had a chance to treat myself (I usually do my own nails but didn't want to spend the time doing them myself) so anyway I went here because it is close to my work. The photos will tell my story. I am very disappointed. They look horrible. I want to soak them off and do my own. I should have. What's the point of paying for a service and not getting results even close to what I could've done. This is probably the worst I've ever had. Not worth the time or money. read more

My favorite place to go for my pedicure and manicure which was Newley remolded.Their massages are out of this world;)) Their polish gel stays on for least 2 months .. my nails grow so fast I end up going back monthly. Everyone is so accommodating, and they want to be sure your comfortable in their high end massage chairs, and they go above and beyond making sure your comfortable, offering water and pillows for your added comfort, along with great magazines for all types, large screen tv on both sides, nice music, very clean and the owner is beautiful inside and out . Couldn't be happier to have this type of caliber in my area. AlwaYs Looking forward to another quality pedicure with this relaxing atmosphere !! Thank you so much for the wonderful afternoon you made my day read more

Love it here! They've updated equipment and did a makeover. I've never had a bad experience. They are professional, kind, and clean!

Sitting here now while my toes dry, regretting my decision to come here. Worst $35 pedicure ever, the technician only spent 23 minutes on me from start to finish, she didn't even file my toenails or clean them out. The paint job is extremely sloppy, some on my skin and paint not down to the cuticle on almost every toenail. All toenails uneven with both polish and edge of nail. Will never come back, save your money and go somewhere else. read more

Been coming here for 12 years. 2 days ago I had a gel manicure done by Holly today the gel started to bubble and peel, when I called to have them fix it they said they were too busy... let's just say I'm quite disappointed. A few months ago Tom the owner left and sold the business to another employee.. She is going to lose business if she doesn't up her customer service. I won't be continuing coming here as I can get friendlier service elsewhere. read more

Great place to get a pedicure. My toenails always hurt. After they get done with them they don't hurt anymore .

I had Tammy do my nails. She did an excellent job and was very attentive to the length, the design, and just overall attitude. I always go to another salon in GV but not now. This place takes the time to do your nails right! I will most definitely come back every time. $50 for a hell set including art and matte. Can't beat it. read more

Halfway through getting my nails done the lady left to go to other costumers over and over again. ended up leaving me there for almost 15-20mins just sitting there with my nails half done. They we're obviously taking in costumers they didn't have time for and took way longer than it should've. I didn't even want to get a pedicure at that point or I felt like I would be sitting there for another hour!!! They are very kind to their costumers but they don't know how to prioritize. read more

I went in for a pedicure. The technician asked if I was interested in a manicure too. I said okay, however I requested a mini-mani. He did a full manicure. The problem I had is when the technician (Kevin) was trimming my toe nail, he dug into the side of my nail bed, with too much force. It hurt instantly (bad!) and I yelped and pulled away. He quickly gas-lighted the situation by saying I had an ingrown toenail. I've never had, currently do not have, and am not prone to ingrown toenails. I told him it was not ingrown, period. When he trimmed my cuticles on my fingers I was left with sore spots two days later. My toe is now infected. I am not at happy with my experience at Grass Valley Nails and do not intend to return. Buyer be ware. read more

Jenny is amazing! I have been getting my nails done regularly for the first time in my life because she is so good.

This nail spa lacks friendliness and customer service. My male nail tech for my pedicure did not say one word, pointed for everything, was super rough with the foot loofa, and very rough with leg rub. I had to ask to go softer, he didn't reply. He messed up the paint and had to clean it up, an experienced tech wouldn't do this. There was zero friendliness. Since the pedi was $35 each for me and my daughter total $70, I tipped begrudgingly $5. Then the female tech looked at me with wide eyes like "this is all you are tipping?" And then turned to the other techs and yelled something in Vietnamese. I can guarantee you she said "another lousy tip!" Ps you get what you give. Poor service, poor communication, no friendliness.....Bad tip! $70 for 30 minutes is a good wage for 2 people, even if overhead costs are paid! Won't go back read more
