    Halloween nails - custom design!

    I've been going to Kim for 2-3 years now and I will NEVER see anyone else! She is the best in town. Her nails are so detailed and top notch quality. They last literally forever. She is also so easy to communicate with and gets me in last minute if I need her. I love how I am the only one in her cute and clean studio as well - very private and relaxing. Would highly recommend!

    I just left Kima Nails & spa and I am in love with my nails. I got my nails done by Lily and she was amazing. I have been here twice and I am always very pleased.

    They're a few days warn in but very fun.

    Kim was very sweet and was able to take me last minute due to a cancellation. I asked her green and black acrylic nails and told her to basically do what she wanted so she could have some creative fun with them. She is truly a pleasure and very fun to be around and and makes you feel calm.

    Kim is awesome. She is professional and pleasant. I love my gel nail manicure and my Mom's manicure looks great! Highly recommend!

    Ombré gel manicure- white, opi bubble bath, and sparkle polish before the top coat. It's slightly more pink than in the photo.

    I asked Kim if she could give me an ombré gel manicure on natural short nails. She said that ombré works best on acrylics, but that she would try. I am very happy with the result! Kim was very patient and understanding of what I wanted to have done, and she made every effort to get the effect I wanted, and also to make sure I was happy with it. I highly recommend Kim's salon!

    My first acrylic set at Kim's came out beautifully. I went with an ombré glitter effect in pink. I had quite a bit of cuticle because I haven't tended to my nails since the pandemic started but Kim was kind enough to clean up my nails during the process. I'm very happy with my new set and look forward to coming back again.

    Love sweet Kim & my nails!

    Kim is a perfectionist! I wouldn't trust my nails with anybody else! She ALWAYS does an EXCELLENT job!

    I have been coming here since I moved to Vista in 2009 The staff and owner is so sweet I come in for the spa pedicure They do an excellent job and are quick ! So glad they are close to my house

    Called in at 5:35pm to asked if I could walk-in and Kim said to come on in even though she closed at 6:00pm. It's inside the Phoenix Salon Suites (not the nail salon a few businesses down) and it was my first time going to this salon, so she came out of her suite and down the hall to make sure I found her. It is very clean and relaxing inside - there are two massage chairs for pedis and one (or maybe two?) tables for full sets/manis, but she was the only one working. Kim really took her time to cut cuticles, file, and massage and went above and beyond what most places do, even when I was there after hours. When I went to leave, she tried putting on my sandal for me, but two toes got smudged in the process. She didn't make me feel bad about it and i didn't need to ask to have them fixed, she just took off the polish and repainted. At the end, I handed her a credit card for payment and she asked me for cash instead. I didn't have any cash on me and didn't see any signs or reviews that said cash only... she was hesitant, but took the card. She then told me it costs her money to run credit cards, but I had no way of knowing I needed cash instead. Overall great experience and appreciated Kim's attention to detail. My only suggestion to Kim would be to make sure customers know to bring cash versus card instead of waiting to tell people until the end.

    Mani perfection

    First time to kim nail salon . Very happy with my results, she did exactly what i ask for. The nail salon is very neat and Sanitary . Overall experience was amazing ! I found the perfect place to get my nail done from know on .

    I went to Kim , hoping to find a salon closer to home. I chose her because of her good YELP reviews. I was shocked that she didn't do gel powder. But since I was there I went ahead with it. Immediately AFTER, in my car I noticed that in the light the polish appeared splotchy. The next day, I had a chip. I called her & she fixed it . But the following day I had three more chips. I didn't even bother to waste my time going back again because she had told me my nails were chipped "because the nail beds had been damaged from powder gel." But the fact is, the polish had chipped, not the nail itself. I ended up wasting $45 for nothing! I would NEVER go here again! If I could give zero stars, I would.

    I was a regular client and initially happy with Destinie's services. But after asking a simple,…read morerespectful question about discounted pricing for a treatment series of facial peels, I received a surprisingly personal and unprofessional response that included assumptions about my character and suggestions I look elsewhere. I've always paid the full price that she asked for her services and referred others, but was treated as if I was trying to take advantage. Supporting a small business shouldn't mean accepting guilt trips or disrespect about buying expensive things from her when theyre available for cheaper outside. Asking if a tailored treatment exists without unnecessary add-ons for myself is not equivalent to asking for a "discount". Its called valuing whats most important and cutting the fluff. I was pressured to leave a tip many many times despite the service not deserving of it. I never took the liberty to start insulting the business owner due to the frustration. So if repeatedly asking for tips isnt considered an insult to the client, how come a client asking for a cheaper tailored treatment offering considered an insult to the business? Entitled double standards. I have moved on from her business and wanted to share my experience so others can make an informed decision. Attaching the screen shots for transparency and for people to really understand the provider that she is!

    So happy I found this place. It's honestly the best facial. The spot is perfectly relaxing and my…read moreskin feels so clean and cared for afterward!
