Service: I wanted specific ones and even mentioned it to the nail techs[I had 2]. They ended up charging more. Why? They rushed the service. Too pricey. Quality: NOT THAT GOOD. My gel nails didn't last 5 days after the appt. Vibe: Friendly nail tech, but they rushed it. ***I wouldn't come back ro be honest.*** read more

J’adore Nail Lounge - Gel nails didn't last 5 days. - Nail Salons Near Me - Escondido, California

Unfortunately this place does really well at first, then nails start to chip over and over again a few days in. I've had dip here done about 6 times. The first few times it was great. I do get dip directly on my natural nail and have had dip done that way for close to 20 years. I do work with my hands and have always had great longevity with dip. The last 3 times my nails have chipped and broken 3-4 days in. Since I didn't have time, I just told them when I went in. The first time it was addressed and handled. They told me I needed to do builder gel. I'm allergic to gel on my nails and told them I couldn't do that and I've never had issues before. This went on 1 additional time. Fast forward to today. I got my nails done on a Wednesday. The following Sunday 2 were broken and by Monday 3 were broken. Unfortunately I'm on vacation and out of town unable to come in. Because I can't come in right away, they refused to handle it and told me I would have to pay for a whole new set and they can give me 10% off. I said it's 3 nails, it should at least be 30%. She said no she couldn't do that. Unfortunately after going round and round I've decided to take my business elsewhere. There are plenty of other nail salons in north county.

Saturday morning, my sister friend & I drove from Mira Mesa to this nail salon specifically because their Instagram still showed they were doing free pedicures with a full set. My sister called Saturday morning to set an appointment & we were told "you can just walk in"...... okay cool. We walk in, all the tables are full & I'd say there were about 10 ladies waiting. We check in on their iPad with no assistance. There are a million options that have no description of what even comes with the service so some guidance would've been nice. The lady at the front desk didn't smile at ALL. I asked "are you guys still doing the free pedicure with a full set?" & says: "No." Most people who know how to work a customer service position might say something like "oh, we actually don't have that special anymore but we do have ______". But just plain out "No." ??? After we struggling with picking the service we wanted, she told us to have a seat... I was wondering if she wanted me to sit on the floor because there was no seating. If the customer service was better, if the front desk was more polite, I really wouldn't have minded a little wait time. But with the attitude I was given on a Saturday morning after having a yummy breakfast & my iced coffee, it was disappointing to be given this bad taste in my mouth. We left immediately because it didn't really seem like she cared to have our business anyway. I'll show you a photo of the Instagram page that still says "FREE REGULAR PEDICURE WITH FULLSET " that's on their instagram page. The front desk is lacking as much as the updates on their Instagram page apparently. Won't be coming here again, ever read more

J’adore Nail Lounge - This is a screenshot I took Saturday & I'm sure it's still on there today, Sunday. - Nail Salons Near Me - Escondido, California

this place is cute and the front of house staff was super nice. But my technician was far from good. I showed her 5 examples of what I was interested in getting and asked her to pick what she was most comfortable doing. She then proceeded to rush through everything, didn't even finish basic cuticle care. Nails were barely even shaped. She didn't allow coats of polish to dry before moving on to the next one. I just ended up redoing everything when I got home. Complete waste of money. read more

To be completely honest im not really loving this place, i have been here time and time again and i just feel like the work is kinda rushed:/ The workers here are so nice and patient but for what im paying i just feel like they could be doing a bit better. Came in for a pedicure today which i do normally get, but the person who worked on me was a bit rough when cleaning my nails and i did let him know, i was also a bit bothered when i saw him starting to file his own fingernails while waiting for my polish to cure and then use the same file on my nails... a bit gross to say the least. I think i will be trying a couple different salons around the area read more

Imy was great! Very attentive and made my experience a great one. Will be coming again and again! :)

I walked in on a Monday morning and was taken straight back to the pedicure room for a rose and champagne pedicure and basic manicure. The salon itself is really clean and has nice new equipment. Very modern and well decorated. I was offered my choice of beverage when I sat down - there's a really nice selection! The pedicure itself is $80 for regular polish but I don't do polish on my toes. It started with my tech Henry just pouring cold champagne on my legs. Honestly, I didn't care for it. He used a pedi in a box kit which was fine. The products seem like they are good quality but the pedicure itself was pretty mediocre. He barely worked on my calluses and even though it's supposed to come with a 15 min massage, he only did 11 mins which was annoying when I'm paying for an $80 pedi. The manicure was fine but he kept scratching my fingers with the buffer and it really hurt! I did get polish and he did a nice job on that. Overall, not a great value for the pedi but maybe I will try again with one of the more basic pedicures or with a different tech. read more

I gave J'Adore Nail Lounge a second chance, and I regret it. My mother and I first visited in March after seeing their promotion stating, word for word, "Free regular second pedicure when you bring a friend." Our pedicures were poorly done, so I decided not to have my hands done there. However, at checkout I specifically asked whether the complimentary pedicure applied to that appointment or my following appointment. I was clearly told it would apply to my following visit. I returned in August because I was having problems with my previous nail salon and wanted to give J'Adore another opportunity. The work was better this time, but the complimentary regular pedicure was never applied. When I called to have the charge corrected, the manager, Jessica, gave me conflicting explanations. She claimed the promotion required a higher-priced pedicure starting at approximately $80, despite the advertisement specifically saying "regular" pedicure. She then said the free pedicure should have been applied during my March visit--not my next visit--which directly contradicts what their employee told me at checkout. Regardless of which explanation is supposedly correct, I qualified for the promotion and never received the advertised free regular pedicure. Their employees' failure to understand, document or properly apply their own promotion should not become the customer's financial loss. Instead of acknowledging the salon's internal miscommunication and honoring a $32 pedicure, Jessica was dismissive and refused to resolve it. After our conversation, my next two calls went directly to voicemail. After this happened, I read more of their Yelp reviews and discovered that I am not the only customer reporting that J'Adore failed to apply an advertised promotion. I also saw other deeply concerning allegations about services and customer safety, including a reviewer who reported receiving a second-degree facial burn following an eyebrow wax. Those are other customers' reported experiences, but combined with how management handled my own legitimate complaint, they are extremely troubling. I have a screenshot of the original promotion and contacted the salon in writing requesting that the owner review the situation. This could have been resolved with basic accountability and decent customer service. Instead, management chose to argue over its own advertisement and place the consequences of its staff's mistakes on the customer. I cannot recommend trusting this salon's promotions or its management, and I will not return. read more

I came in for a pedicure and gel manicure. Luca and Ryan were excellent! Very friendly, fast and did a great job. The salon is very big, fancy and clean. It's brand new, they just opened 3 months ago. They offer complementary beverages which is a nice touch. I recommend coming here! read more

Everything was done very quickly and rushed, and I was not satisfied at all. I will not be coming back. It felt like they assigned someone inexperienced and unskilled, like a beginner who had never done this before. If I had to rate this place out of 10, I would give it a 1, maybe even a O. This was my husband's experience with a pedicure. And I've been there before myself. They charge very high prices, the staff are not skilled, and they can't match the design you ask for with the photo you show them. read more

I've been to this nail salon three times now, hoping for a spark of excellence, but sadly, it feels like the magic fizzled out. While I appreciate their effort, this last visit was a letdown: the quality of the gel polish peeled off within less than a day. There's also a language barrier that made it hard to communicate exactly what I wanted, and the staff seemed a bit disinterested this time. Unfortunately, I won't be returning--I need a salon that delivers both quality and care. read more

The pedicure was fine. The full set and "manicure" I got was horrible. The power was done so thick. He dis not clean under the nails so now I have the hardened power under my nails. There is a noticeable gap. I even told them I did not want that gap. When I asked for some corrections, the guy seemed annoyed. So I didnt say anything. Do not spend your money here. I am so disappointed i tried somewhere now for a big trip. Thankfully it looks ok from far away but up close, looks like crap. read more

Huge nail salon with 3 different rooms with spa pedicure chairs, the front is nails only & it's also huge. Very clean, the people at the front reception are very warm & welcoming. They offer complimentary beverages (adult & non alcoholic). I got the detox pedicure & a reg gel manicure & my brows waxed and it was $104 without tips. Both nail techs & wax lady were all great. Super relaxing & enjoyable experience will be back for sure. read more

Do NOT come for the head spa. My friend & I came last Friday for the head spa & booked at 10am. At 10:15 we were brought back to a small room by one girl. She had us put robes on and lay down. She showed me her phone timer was set to 60 minutes and started. My friend was just laying there & the girl said someone would be in soon to work on her. I can't be certain exactly when, but a good 5-10 minutes later another lady came in & started on my friend. It was soooo distracting as they kept chit chatting with eachother while giving us a massage. Another thing to make note of - this is NOT a head spa experience. It's basically an Asian foot massage without your feet being touched. Essentially they just give you an arm and hand massage and then wash your hair. The time spent on your hair is soooo minimal. Literally they run water over it a few times and call it a day. Back to the massage -- when my friends rep came in and started on her, she kept sneezing and sniffling her nose. Again, so distracting and pretty gross. There were a few times I was going to tell her to just excuse herself and blow her nose. At the end my friend even brought up to me how fearful she was that snot was going to drip on her, lol. Once finished, my rep had me sit on a small stool and she started blow drying my hair. After about 1 minute she said I was all done. I went up front to wait for my friend with wet hair. Less than 5 minutes later my friend came out also with wet hair. All in all I'd avoid getting a headspa treatment here. There was nothing "head spa" about the experience. I'd recommend getting a $45 hour foot massage down the road and save yourself the time, money and avoid disappointment. I tried submitting my feedback to their automated email / text that goes out, but once you hit submit it just says "unable to be submitted" Very disappointing. $85 EACH for a service that we ultimately did not receive. read more

Jimmy did so amazing, he was so kind, had great attention to detail and was gentle! Jimmy you rock and my first experience here great!

Got a pedicure with Bi (pronounced bee) and she did an amazing job. She was friendly and took her time to make it look nice.

False advertising. 2 different road sign that promote free pedicure with full set. They said they are no longer running that special when I asked for it. and the signs clearly still are up. Horrible service and employees. Bad business practices.. do not go here! read more

The nail tech I had was GREAT. It wasn't him it was the place. The attitude here is very gloomy and the prices are very high for what you get. They also have different prices for cash vs card and the difference is extremely different. Outrageously different. They also "forgot" to mention I would be charged an additional $7 for white tips or a French tip on my toes. I get most places do charge a bit more. But I asked and they said NO till I was at the front paying. I drove out here from LA for an event and decided to stop in since they also advertised on a sign outside and on their IG that you get a free pedicure with full set. That wasn't not the case. So I did not get a full set. Only did a pedicure and probably spent way too much for the time spent on my feet. It feels like they are in a rush to get you in out. They also have a sign stating you get a discount with a full set. But they told me that wasn't valid either. Sorry I didn't get pics of the free pedicure sign. But somone else posted it as well in another review. read more

11 days and nails breaking off. Called and asked if they can fix per their policy no only with in 5 day period. They have to charged me up to 10 dollars. The male nail tech who did them glued them so on the edge of my nail ( nails were extremely short) nails are VERY thick and when he did them he was very rough, he used a thick nail filer to file them down, instead of the machine they use. He ignored me every time I said they were thick or looked crooked, he said I'll fix. Well he made them thin from width. And free pedicure?? No they charge if you have gel! And callus removal? Is feels like they massaged the callus instead of removing it. Gave this place 2 chances read more

This salon can be a hit or miss depending on which nail technician you get and how busy they are. I have a go to salon, but I decided to give this place a try because their Instagram suggested they have talented, artistic nail techs -- which is partially true, though not all seem to have that skill level. My first visit went really well, the technician did a great job with my manicure design. On my second visit, I booked a gel mani with a simple nail art and a gel pedi. The tech who did my pedicure was ok, but the 10-minute "massage" was really just a light rub and could've been much better. The tech who did my manicure seemed inexperienced with nail art but decided to take it on anyway, and unfortunately, another technician had to redo it. I've also noticed inconsistency with their customer service -- sometimes you're offered a beverage, sometimes not. I wasn't offered one during my last visit, and I waited for someone to ask. Overall, for their price point, the service could definitely be improved. The salon is newer and fancier than most in Escondido, but both the quality of service and artistry should match the upscale presentation and prices. read more

I felt like the manicure was rushed, the guy didn't apply the nails properly and I've had 3 GelX nails come off within one week, which has never happened to me with GelX. He also didn't go back and clean up the inside of the nail so there was a bunch of glue left over. He also used his own nail to dig into mine (it already had an issue and I wasn't going to even have him work on it but he insisted) I was bleeding and he used a dirty clipper to get in there, never cleaned off the blood and just kept working. Used the nail dehydrator on the bloody nail and even applied the GelX nail right over it. Definitely disappointed in the quality and the overall cleanliness the nail tech displayed. read more

I genuinely wanted to support this new business. After five visits with different technicians, I can say with certainty this is the most disappointing and overpriced salon in Escondido. The owner's response claims the 3-hour appointments were my preference. To clarify: that reflected your technician's pace, which your own manager confirmed when she called me to say he was uncomfortable with me being "too picky." When I asked her to recommend someone more skilled in acrylics, she refused, stating every technician deserves a fair chance regardless of ability. My first visit was with your manager herself. She left my acrylics visibly crooked and redirected me to someone else rather than fix her own work. The pedicure included with every new full set was never provided across multiple visits. I arrived with text-confirmed appointments and was told I had none, waiting over an hour each time. The interior is beautiful. The service is not. I have since found a salon that respects my time, delivers consistent quality, and treats every client with genuine care. The difference was immediate. read more

Anne and Bi are incredibly talented and take the time to really make sure you have a great experience. I get the same thing every single time yet they still make sure the service and quality is consistent and that I leave feeling like 1 million bucks every time the atmosphere of the salon contributes to the overall vibe being very relaxing and their attention to detail is unmatched. Even when those two ladies have not been available, I've never been disappointed leaving the place. Thank you!! read more

I made an appointment a week in advance and when I checked in I wasn't serviced until 15ish minutes later. I understand this is a busy service especially on weekends, but taking the time to note regulars and providing a more welcoming environment would help. The last 3 times I've gone to get a pedicure I've timed my service and it's 28-33 minutes Though they advertise it to be 45 minutes. The 5 minute massage is advertised, but all 3 times a singular toe is continuously pet followed by whoever is doing the service stopping, looking at the tv, petting my toe again etc. At first I felt like this location had a lot of potential now it just feels like another spot who overbooks and rushes clients. The atmosphere feels gloomy. I tried to like it but likely won't come back again anymore. the worker themselves do a good job, though rushed Which just sorta ruins the experience.
