    $80 for this basic set is crazy
    Mary T.

    I paid $160 for a gel pedicure and a basic dip manicure (no design), which felt really overpriced. I originally asked for a basic pedicure, but the tech kept pushing the deluxe -- she asked me multiple times and ended up switching the prices on me without being upfront. When I got home, I even noticed nail polish left on my feet, which was disappointing after paying so much. The salon itself is nice, very clean and pretty, but unfortunately, I wouldn't come back due to the lack of transparency and attention to detail.

    I've been going to Ivy's for years and have never had a bad experience or bad manicure. Trust me, I'm PICKY when it comes to my nails. Ivy and Gina are true artists. Beautifully shaped nails every time!

    gel mani

    This place is convenient, but I felt very rushed when I was there. My gel mani chipped within 3 days and this is how it looks 6 days later. Also my nails were rough at the ends when I left, and felt jagged :(

    Love my nails they did a great job and staff were super sweet towards me and my mom. Service was amazing

    Did a walk in around 11am and they helped me right away. Had a pedicure with Lindsey and she was amazing, so sweet and took her time. I very much enjoyed the ambiance. They had very calm and zen music going on in the background. A little pricey but I think it's worth it. Right next door to a pilates studio as well. Will definitely come back to Lindsey!

    Amazing gel nails by Gina. Very nice, great technique, turned out similar to reference photo.

    I did dipped nails and it feels so much nicer and it's healthier for my nail beds.

    Ivy did such a great job with my nails and she was so nice to me too. I did dipped powder nails and it didn't hurt at all and it feels so much nicer on my nails. Hope to come back soon!

    I was recommended by a friend to come here and it blew me away. I haven't gotten my nails done in a year and felt like treating myself. I was able to get a last minute appointment as well which was great! Ivy and her technicians are so friendly and accommodating. I had a regular pedi and a dip nail manicure. So many colors to choose from! I drove all the way down from sf and will continue to come here

    I was dismayed to learn today that Ivy's Nails is under threat. In 2019, the business was purchased outright in a verbal agreement, with no date of expiry mentioned. Now the seller is having cold feet and instructing the team to vacate the premises by December 14th, 2023. This is exactly the sort of greed we do not need more of in the bay area. This predatory behavior is the death of creativity and the ruin of security for hardworking small business owners. None of Dam's utility bills or rent were late and a large payment was made in the interest of running the business as her own. She renovated the interior and replaced all aging equipment and furniture with her own savings. As you can see, Ivy's Nails is retaining customers and receiving overwhelmingly good reviews - of course the seller wants the business back! After my nail tech moved away last year, I was delighted to find Ivy's Nails and start new. They have provided me with several beautiful, long-lasting and creative dip sets this year. They consistently come out looking like new after my workouts and even survived my dark water rafting escapades in New Zealand. I often observe the nail techs here practicing with new colors and talking about techniques they want to try. They are positive, patient and interested - I am a picky client, so this is a big plus! These dedicated artists deserve to be treated with respect and equity, not steamrolled by people they trust. Please be aware and support the incredible business Ivy's Nails has become during a time it matters most. Do you like your nails? Then talk to them - ask how you can be supportive.

    Nail color so hot it burns

    Did my nails today and had an amazing experience make sure to ask for a shoulder massage !! Left feeling so good and my nails looking so good thank you !

    Nails by the amazing Amy!

    Amy @Ivy's Nail is fantastic. She's patient, took her time with my nails and the results turned out better than I could have imagined! I will certainly be coming back and visiting Amy! I just moved to Woodside and have been searching for a new nail salon so I am happy I found this little gem! Plus I love visiting the gift shop in Ladera as well!

    Dip mani
    Sarah S.

    Newly open! My friend and I made an appointment on the same day for dip manicures and had a great experience here! Absolutely love the color selection and will probably try something more adventurous next time. Chose a neutral color for my first time. They did a phenomenal job shaping my nails. I will be back for my pedicure soon!

    This was my first time here. Ivy and her team took such good care of me. I called and was seen promptly after. The space was clean and my massage chair was amazing!!! My nails look flawless - I'm all set for my birthday. Thanks Ivy!!!

    WOW. It's been a long time since I've written a review! But this place has brought me back lol…read more I have always wanted to get my nails done, but honestly a little nervous - spoiler alert, I am a man. Or at least I try to be Anyway, my plan was to go here to get something subtle, but it was actually recommend to me to just get a cut, clean up the cuticles, and I guess "buff" the nails? (Not sure of the terminology) The nail techs are super nice and the work is amazing but I mostly love the vibe. The place is gorgeous and the owner is super nice So I guess I'm back on yelp - every time I try to get out, they puuull me back in hahaha In short, this place is awesome, the techs are super good and the owner is super sweet. Thank you Meew!

    If I could give negative stars to rate this nail salon quality and management, I would!…read more The first thing that happened after I had been going to Meew for about a year was, I went to checkout after my service one day and noticed that my total was $55 less that day. I asked the receptionist why and she looked at my service history and saw that I had been being over charged for a different service that whole time. When I reached out to the owner Anna to have her review my past services and issue me a credit towards future appointments she kept pushing me off, saying "I will look tomorrow" . As this went on for weeks. I came into the salon and saw her decorating the front door and asked if we could get this sorted and she told me she was busy decorating and would get back to me, continuing to put me off. I ended up taking matters into my own hands and requesting my history from the receptionist and added up the total and told them how much of a credit I have and had to keep a log myself until I was made whole in that situation. I had been going to this very expensive nail salon for almost 2 years. Before I took a nail break due to a fingernail infection that I suspect was caused by this salon. I had several issues with my gel polish peeling off of my nails over the last few months I was going there. Twice I had the gel polish peeling off same day/next day before even taking a shower and when I contacted the salon they were telling me that it had to be something I was doing. I had to go in twice within 72 hours to get my nails fixed. My guess is that the products they are using are no good and not sticking to the nail bed and I have several friends that experience the same thing. (My girlfriend got her nails done before heading to a wedding in Europe and had to attend with no polish on one nail because the whole thing peeled off in one piece. ) I reached out to an old nail tech I previously saw and she recommended which base and top coat to use. I then purchased those products and brought them with me the last time I was in and my polish lasted 2 weeks+ (that was the fix). But after that my nail became infected. I was diagnosed by my primary physician and was prescribed antibiotics to take for a week as well as an antibiotic ointment to use. Not using my best judgement, now that my finger is healed and I have an event coming up I tried to schedule an appointment and planned to bring my own products when I realized that I was blocked from booking. I reached out to the salon and this is what the owner responded to me. Telling me that I'm the blame, saying that I expect my nails to last a month, when my complaint was about my nails not lasting even 24 hours. She is now refusing me as a client and acting as if I have gotten aggressive with her and is threatening legal action. I have also had a friend tell me she had the same experience, they told her they would refund her. Never did, and my friend had to call her bank to get her money back. Over $200 for a manicure that did not last 48 hours. Unacceptable. I will attach screenshots of my conversation with the owner. Also, not registered with BBB.

La Jolie has become like family. My daughter has been coming here since she was just five years old, and now at 20, it's still one of the first places she wants to visit whenever she's home from college. That alone says so much about the consistency, warmth, and care this team provides. Alicia, Pink, her husband, and the entire staff are absolutely amazing. They are not only incredibly talented and detail-oriented, but they also create such a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. They remember their clients, take their time, and genuinely care about the experience they provide. Over the years, I've always been impressed by their professionalism, cleanliness, and dedication to quality service. Whether it's a quick visit or a longer, more relaxing appointment, I always leave feeling happy and well taken care of.
