Hi, I went here last minute before a trip with daily water…read moreactivities! They were all very friendly and accommodating! I was in there for about 2 1/2 - 3 hrs, which I would say is pretty fast for gel x nails (with design and jewels), gel toes (French tip), and a full set volume lash. The price was fairly decent, I paid, if I'm remembering correctly, $230 for all services! These are lashes and nail growth about 5 days after service, I had been in and out of pools, oceans, and plenty showers at this point. And for starting said activities just the day after getting my lashes done, I'd say they held up pretty well! Very pleased, 10/10 recommend!!

I was assigned to Lynn T for a full set with french tips. Lynn was very patient and good a recommending what would look best. I'm very peculiar about my french tips.

This salon is capable…read moreof absolutely beautiful work, and in the past my nails have closely matched the reference photos. However, because I was the last appointment of the day at 5:30, the service felt rushed this time. I brought in a reference photo, and while the general color palette was similar, the final result did not closely match the inspiration. The marble effect looked more uneven and muddled than the soft, blended look shown in the reference, and the gold accents felt less intentional. Given that this salon is capable of detailed nail art, this result was disappointing. Also, the cuticles were not pushed back or trimmed, which made the nails look grown out immediately. The photos provided were taken the same day, yet the set already looks a week old. The space itself is beautiful, with luxury pedicure chairs and white marble throughout. Unfortunately, the pedicure experience did not match the setting. The massage portion consisted mainly of lotion being applied to my shins, and the callus remover was applied and then immediately rinsed off in the water. The actual removal took only about five to six seconds. While I do not have heavy calluses, the exfoliation was not done thoroughly or in the right areas, and there is still noticeable buildup. I really want to love this place and continue coming back, as their nail art quality can be excellent. That said, I may need to find a salon that either charges more for more detailed pedicure services or offers later appointments to avoid feeling rushed.

So I posted a review earlier when I got my nails done I thought it was absolutely amazing he did a…read morereally good job on my first set which is the gold and flowered nails! But when I went in there yesterday we've had an appointment at 3 PM and we got there exactly at 3 PM there was two other ladies in there and I feel that he should've told them that he had appointments at 3o'clock but he kept going back-and-forth between these two ladies my daughter and myself and the two ladies twice went outside and took a 15 to 20 minutes pot smoking break so in The end the nails were not done as good as before I wanted to flower design and I had asked him I said how long are you gonna be with those ladies more and he said 20 minutes their remark was like really! Excuse me but we had an appointment and I feel that he could've said look I can do one of use but I have two people coming in at 3 PM, but instead he tried to take care of everybody, and he did as you can see the crappy ass job on my nails this time... I didn't see it when it was dark because that's what time we left but today in the daylight they are just not good!!! I thought OK this is Kim's old nail shop maybe just maybe this is going to be good shop again! But after yesterday I really need to find me a nail shop that is going to do a really good job and not try to rush between four or five people! And when we set up a reservation to come in I feel that he should've just finished with the one lady's nails and then did ours but instead he continued on to do theirs and they had a little bit of an attitude with us and I really don't care! You should've made yourself an appointment also! And when I looked at my toenails when she did my pedicure she forgot to put the topcoat on! She was in a rush to get out of there also! I just think maybe I misJudged this mail so take -over! I guess I'm gonna look for someone that can do designs because I really wanted flowers on my nails but I also need somebody who's going to send out all the little dips in my nails right now because there are so many dips! Well I guess it was good while it lasted! And the reason why I gave it four stars is because I like the way he did my nails the first time and my pedicure the first time

My daughter came in for a full acrylic set with a clear reference photo of what she wanted. Instead of being guided or advised, she was repeatedly pressured into a design she explicitly said she did not want. When she asked for smaller gems, she was told "no" multiple times. The final result looks nothing like the reference photo she brought in. The execution is uneven, bulky, and novice in quality, yet she was charged $90, which is well above the San Diego average for this level of work. The pricing reflects expert-level craftsmanship; the result does not. To make matters worse, she was also charged an additional $3 ATM fee, which was not disclosed upfront. This experience felt like a young client being talked over, upsold, and overcharged without regard for consent or satisfaction. That is not acceptable. I hope the owners take this feedback seriously, especially when servicing younger clients who may feel uncomfortable advocating for themselves. I will be going to The Little Nail Shop in Mission Valley to have the work repaired tomorrow. Casper always makes sure the work is done to the client's satisfaction.

Once the lady with the black hair got mad because every single finger was messed up and I wanted her to fix them. She blocked my number! I only went to her because Lily was on vacation and I didn't know. Last time I went .. I was 4 mins late to my appointment, I even called ahead to tell Lily I was running a few minutes behind. She STILL took someone else THEN had me wait for 45 mins and if that wasn't bad enough she over charged me.. mind you this is how they treat a loyal customer of over 2 years. Also when I found this shop I thought it had just opened because of how horribly decorated, dirty, and dingy it looked. But I realized it's because they don't take pride in their work or their work space! NEVER GO HERE trust me if you want quality work that's worth your money go somewhere else!! I went here for a while because it was down the street from my house and cheaper let's be honest. But their horrible attitudes, lack of attention to detail, and lack of cleanliness makes it sooooo not worth it.
