I went to get a pedicure and I was so disappointed in how the guy did them. Paid no attention and was careless with the service. My poor toe nails aren't even cut straight. For the price it was very meh. So sad. read more

Love this place!! You know it's good when there are many regulars who are friends with the nail techs. They know how to do everything when it comes to nail design/art with acrylics! The pedicures are also the best I've had, even the basic comes with hot stones and all of them know how to massage so well! (Plus nice massage chairs) I will become a regular now :) read more

I normally come here once to twice a month for my classic full set/pedicure routine. I call ahead to set my appointment normally because you never know how busy they can be. I always ask for Ryan to do my sets, and he kills them every single time! All of the other employees are very nice and sweet and keep to themselves unless you're a frequent regular. They are almost always a very quiet salon with soothing music except for the weekends or holidays when they can get super busy. I almost exclusively get black/gothic nails but I assure you they have a vast multitude of colors and shades to choose from. I highly recommend coming here if you're in the Arden area! read more

I should lead with-I didn't end up receiving a service here. The first two things I noticed when I walked in, it was very warm and stuffy. No air. Door closed. And the smell. It wasn't the usual chemical smells from acrylic. It just smelled musky to me. The equipment was dingy and chipping. Overall it was just an icky place. I ended up walking out. read more

Horrible service left me sitting in cold water for 45 mins and once I got service for a deluxe pedi it lasted all of 20 mins if that. I will never come back. read more

I went here for a pedicure and the tech didn't know what he was doing. He forgot a lot of steps and I had to remind him. When I spoke with the manager he didn't do anything and still charged me full price. This was my second time here. So unprofessional. read more

Love this nail place!! They have a super easy modern check in! You should definitely make an appointment as they're so good they get booked up. I love seeing Ryan for my nails. He does the best nails I have ever had in my life. He was referred to me by a friend and there are at least five in our friend group who go to see. We also all get our pedicures by Kelly or Hannah. They're both so sweet and talented. Location- super easy parking. Next to a tea place if you want to grab a drink or delicious food at cafe Europa. Please if you take my advice and go get the best nails of your life... be sure to TIP these hard working people who make you feel beautiful. read more

Full set with gel was $70. It was my first time here and first time getting my nails done since 2020 so I'm not sure how the price is relative to the area but it feels on the higher end. read more

Howe'bout Nails Salon is great! I've been getting my nails done with Emma for years! She cleans/shapes my nails well and is very detailed with designs. She never fails to bring my Pinterest nail inspo to life! I've also gotten my gel pedicures done with Kim and she's very kind and gentle. My toes always look great! They also have a rewards program which is nice and can save you some money. I definitely recommend this spot if you're in the area :) read more

I used to LOVE this place but lately it just has not been it you pay this large amount of money for gel acrylic nails and toes just for them to chip off the next day I went back twice to get my nails and toes fixed just for me to call them back for the third time and he goes " time for a fill half off " like it should be FREE if you're employees can't seem to do the job right. read more

Used to love this place but the last couple times I've been here have not been pleasant. It feels like they're always rushing and way too rough. You go to get a pedicure/manicure to relax for an hour or so and enjoy your experience not to sit at a chair and not able to use the massage setting because they're rushing to get you out and want to do multiple things at once. Absolutely hate when one of the ladies (short hair) does my nails because she's so damn rough and always rushing to get you out. read more

They are so talented! I went to try out bridal nails and I had a set I wasn't a fan of. I showed Emma a picture of what I wanted and she made them perfect. Both techs to each side were creating art! read more

Love this little salon. All of the staff are very friendly and professional. The salon is also kept clean and they have a rewards program which is a nice incentive. I get my nails done by Emma and sometimes my pedicures too. She really pays attention to detail and if you come in with a photo of what you'd like she can make it happen. I couldn't recommend this salon enough. read more

I am updating my review because, after my cousin and I got our nails done here again after my last experience, we started noticing some problems with this current application. We both had two people work on our nails rather than just one person all the way through our session. Which honestly is not a big deal, but still odd. The biggest problem we struggled with is the quality of product applied to our acrylic nails and how they felt very flimsy and not properly applied. We both had broken nails after barely 2 weeks, which has never been a problem before. They didn't simply chip or crack...but came completely off. I mean, overall take this review with a grain of salt, because it had been two weeks. ...but for them to both break... I don't know. But either way, I'm reducing my stars. read more

I've been going to Emma for years and highly recommend her. I have referred two of my friends in the last year to her and they haven't been disappointed. Emma pays attention to detail, is patient and really takes the time to replicate a design inspo I bring in. I originally was doing gel manicure but recently switched to dip as I feel it lasts longer on my nails (3 weeks +). I work in healthcare and am constantly washing my hands and the dip seems to be the best. This salon is always packed but I never have an issue getting an appointment. The price is reasonable. I usually pay $55 for dip+chrome and $10 for a toe nail polish change. There is a parking lot with space. They also have a reward system with points for every time you check in. If you get a certain amount of points you can redeem for $ off. read more

Came here November of 2024 for my birthday nails, it was super busy waited about 45 minutes no problem the man that did my toes was the receptionist maybe they needed him to step in since it was packed, not sure but he seemed new, right after I left my nails felt sore and raw he cut too much skin or cuticles around my nails. A month goes by I develop a bad fungus infection/paranychia (google it) fast forward to now I'm still dealing with this nail infection I'm on my third round of antibiotics hoping to finally get rid of it. This salon must not disinfect and sanitize their tools correctly. If anyone is reading this plz save your money and time it's not worth this horrible experience I'm now paranoid and probably will never get my toes done again. read more

Walked in and staff were very nice. I requested a gel mani and regular pedicure. The original white polish I chose was too clumpy and they didn't have a backup so they asked me to choose another color. I asked if they had any white available and they had an off white. It initially looked ok in the salon but I got outside and it looked almost like white Elmer's glue. Both the manicure and pedicure were both chipping a few hours after I left the salon. Pricey for something that barely lasts a day. read more

They are always willing to offer suggestions and they are friendly! Definitely take their time and I like their selection of colors.

I love this place. I hadn't gotten my nails done in over 2-3 years and I wanted to start getting them done regularly. A friend recommended this spot. I've been going to this place consistently now for over a year. I think I've been helped by just about everyone there. It's not the fanciest place but they are clean and efficient. I've always been happy when I leave. Some of my takeaways: A lot of them don't speak great English. DO speak slowly and clearly to them and they will figure it out. DONT use more words or speak louder. That gets you nowhere. Help them help you. Some of the one star reviews sound like they could have been resolved if the reviewer weren't so....entitled. I'll say it again, don't raise your voice to them. They want you to leave happy, I promise. Not all of them do fancy nail art. If you want art, they may cycle a different person in to do the art. Those that do the art do a good job. Tip BOTH of them. Tipping well goes a long way here. Tip in cash. They have an ATM there that only has a 75 cent surcharge so if you don't have cash, use the ATM. read more

This is one of my favorite nail salons here in sacramento. Anne never disappoints when I go to her. I love my nails every time. They have a points system so if you rack up so many you get a coupon and they are always sending out texts with discounts. I've been coming to this nail shop for a few years now and so far I haven't been any other place where I am fully satisfied other than here. Thanks Anne! (: read more

I had an excellent experience from the initial call speaking to Brian and making an appointment to checking out. I don't live in town yet I'd definitely come out to get my nails done here again by Mimi. She took the time to soak them, file the old acrylic down to my natural nail and applied the ombré powder to create a whole new set. Our daughter had Amy do her nails and she was pleased too. It was great service and I'd definitely come back again. I'd recommend those looking for a nail salon to try Howe 'Bout Nails. read more

I decided to try this place out because I was desperate to get my nails done, but I didn't feel like driving to Natomas. I was at first hesitant! The lady that did my toes did an ok job. She was delicate and took her time. The guy that did my nails did a great job. He was quick and my nails weren't sloppy! I think I would return! They also had time to squeeze me in and they looked really busy! read more

Go to Ryan! My nails have never looked better. I appreciated how he checked on my nails after every step. He cut cuticles I didn't even know existed. Great work! Going back definitely read more

At first I really liked Howe Bout Nails, the prices were good and services was nice. I would get Acrylics occasionally, and it would come out okay. The male gentleman that is not Ryan, always did the acrylics in a rush and the nails were never the same length. I decided that acrylics wasn't for me so I switched over to gel manicure and was it the worst decision I ever made. I usually get the same older woman doing my nails and she would cut me sometimes because I do have small nail beds. She would file my nails so much that my nails would be super thin and weak (keep in mind that naturally I have strong nail beds). On top of that, the paint job was not okay, with a one or two fingers being a lighter color because the paint coat is not even. One of my last visits, she continues to file my weak nails and I told her to not do a gel color anymore since I want my fingers to breathe. She continues to ask if I was sure and I said yes and to only use clear polish. She showed signs of annoyance and did what I asked, however, she didn't give me cuticle oil, massage and lotion my hands even though that is what I paid for. I was super upset and felt like because I decided to change my mind at the end, that they would treat me like that, especially I have been going there for about 8 months. I am beyond upset. Also, the ATM only split out $20 bills so if you want to leave a smaller tip, you have to ask for change up at the cash register. Usually I just give the lady $20 tip and I am STILL treated like that. read more

Best nail techs at this salon. I have been going here for my nails and get the best service! My go to nail tech is Hannah. She is so nice and does the best full set. The trick to this spot is to call ahead for an appointment. Walking in for a last minute services is a gamble, so plan ahead. It is a full house every time I go in. They take cards but TIP your tech in CASH!!! They have an ATM with a low service fee (under a $1). Hannah is the best!! read more

Ryan's work is amazing ! This is the second time I go for an acrylic overlay. He is so patient and kind and always makes sure I leave liking my set. Cant believe he made my natural nail look so good! Will definitely be coming in again next month! read more

5 star review for Emma- she is amazing. Her designs are done so well. She takes her time and is dedicated to recreating whatever I have shown her and she also has a great aesthetic and creativity to do her own designs. I love getting my nails done by Emma- I highly recommend her!! read more

I'm updating my review since my nail made more than 20 days! I'm so happy with the result. I maintained nails weekly myself by filing and refinish with decorations and new top coat, so they aren't going too long and will look new throughout. I'm so glad that I don't have to deal with chips and biting for the past few weeks and enjoy parties with my shinning nails. read more
