We were in Sacramento for the day shopping for snowboarding gear and making a trip to the Apple…read moreStore, and since we had some extra time, I searched for a nail salon that could squeeze me in for a regular manicure and pedicure. I'm so glad I found Blush Nail & Beauty Bar! First of all, this place is BEAUTIFUL. The salon is spacious, bright, clean and relaxing, and the pedicure chairs are gorgeous and incredibly comfortable. The music was also SO GOOD! They were playing what sounded like 2000s R&B, and it honestly added so much to the whole relaxing atmosphere. I also really appreciated that they had a good selection of regular nail polish. I don't get gel, and not once did anyone question my choice or try to pressure me into upgrading to gel. That alone was refreshing. The original color I picked was very sheer, and I asked if they could put white underneath it. They explained that doing that could make it look streaky and recommended choosing another color instead. I didn't end up with the exact color I originally wanted, but I appreciated them explaining why rather than doing something they didn't think would turn out well. I still really like the soft color I ended up with. I chose their least expensive manicure and pedicure package, and I was honestly surprised by how much was included. The pedicure was wonderful -- probably the best foot massage I've ever had. It was so relaxing I was practically falling asleep! It even included paraffin wax. My manicure technician was wonderful too. She gave a great massage and was very gentle and patient with my cuticles. I can get nervous when my cuticles are pushed back and trimmed, and I felt completely comfortable here. Everyone I interacted with was pleasant, patient and welcoming. They also offer complimentary mimosas, wine and beer. I chose an ice water, and even that was delicious and refreshing. Overall, this was such a nice unexpected find during our Sacramento day. Beautiful salon, comfortable chairs, amazing music, great massages, friendly staff, regular polish without the gel pressure, and a genuinely relaxing experience. I would absolutely come here again the next time I'm in Sacramento

This was my second visit to Blush, and unfortunately, the experience was very different from my…read morefirst. I scheduled a visit a few days in advance for three people and four services and paid an $80 deposit ($20 per service) via Venmo. One person canceled that morning, but I was able to switch to a different service for myself that same day vs. losing my deposit. The two pedicures were fine. They were basic pedicures, and aside from the water initially being extremely hot, I was happy with the results. Because of the deposit, there was also no wait time. The head spa, however, was a completely different experience. This was my first head spa, so I was excited and expected it to be relaxing. Unfortunately, it was anything but. The massage was brief, and despite the menu stating that oils would be used, none were applied. During the double cleanse, the technician used her fingernails rather than her fingertips, which became painful. There was also an excessive amount of cleanser, and rinsing it out was difficult. The water temperature was extremely inconsistent--going from hot to ice cold--and water got into my ear. Instead of feeling relaxed, I was uncomfortable throughout the service. Afterward, my hair was not completely dry. When I asked for serum, I was told it had already been applied, and I had to explain that I wanted my hair fully dried and soft. Another staff member eventually finished drying it, and the end result was much better. The two services totaled $138, or $158 with a 15% tip. I shared all of this feedback with the front desk before leaving. They were receptive and said they would provide additional training. I was also told that the technician was new to the salon and has some communication issues. I appreciate that they listened to my concerns, but based on my head-spa experience, I would not return for that service. *********************************************************** FINAL THOUGHTS Making a reservation requires a deposit, but it does give you priority if there's a wait. PRO TIP: I visited on a Saturday around noon, and it wasn't busy at all. If you're coming in solo, you can probably skip the reservation and deposit. I've had two pedicures here, and the service was totally fine. No issues at all. I also clearly saw the technicians using Barbicide to disinfect their metal tools, although I didn't pay attention to where they pulled the drill bits from. Overall, the salon is CLEAN, which I really appreciate. Personally, I wouldn't get a head spa treatment here again. I was told they're having plumbing issues because the building is old and that their plumber hasn't been able to resolve the problem. However, based on my experience, I feel some of the issues were related to the technician and not just the plumbing. That said, I'd love to hear from others who have had a head spa here. How was your experience with the water temperature? Did you have a better experience with a different technician? I'd genuinely be curious to know!

I had usually gotten dip on my nails but Kim convinced me to try hybrid/poly ... again, so glad that she did. My nails feel lighter and stronger. My issue was that the dip would have cracks in it and wouldn't look good. So that's why Kim suggested we try this. I have continued to go see her and every single time I go she takes her time and ensures I like everything before going to the next step. The salon is clean, friendly and they use high quality products. I also love that they use filters when filing your nails so that you aren't breathing in all that dust.

I was referred by a former coworker who told me about builder nails on toes that were misshaped. I wouldn't advise African Americans to go there though! The owner is very discriminatory and will interrogate you over the phone and pretends not to remember you each time you call back to reschedule. If you walk in to schedule an appt she will say they are booked for weeks. When you agree to be scheduled out, she will say to call, only to say they're busy and shorthanded, and tell you to call back! She even recommended I go somewhere else! Do Not Support this business. The owner responded, attempting to discredit my review, so I'll add more context. The last time I called to I book an appt, she told me they were two weeks out. She tried to give me a real early appt on a weekday, I said no, I work during the day. She said I could come on Sat, I said ok. I called the day before to confirm, she said she only had me down for the early weekday appt! I reminded her no, I accepted the early Sat appt. Again she said she didn't see it! I had to remind her of the convo, and she just said ok. Fast forward yesterday, I did call to schedule an appt and asked if there was any openings that day. She said no. No problem. Once again she started to interrogate me. Have you been here before? I said yes. She asked when I explained my initial appt. I told her I had an appt last month. She kept on asking details. I told her it was Labor Day, I'm a state worker, so I was off that day. She allegedly went through the schedule and said she couldn't find me. I told her the lady that helped me said her name was Phu. She said no one by that name works here! I replied, why do you make me feel like I need to prove myself to get an appt and patronize your business. She then tried to refer me to another business across the street! Finally she booked me for next Saturday at 10! I decided after that conversation that this was excessive, and wrote a review! I had no intention on keeping that appt! I realize businesses have the right to refuse service or say they are not accepting new clients. I am ok with that. However the customer service by the owner is unacceptable. I have been using the same tech for years, but she doesn't offer the nail builder service for pedi's , so I wanted to try someone new! Oasis was the wrong choice! Again, I must reiterate the nail techs are excellent! This is not in anyway diminishing the quality of work, just the owners treatment for no reason. I will take ownership, I should've declined to be serviced there! I DO NOT Recommend this business! By the way she called after the review, and suddenly had an opening at 4:18. No thanks!

I called the same day hoping to get an appointment after work, and Tracy was so kind and accommodating. She told me she'd take care of me, and she absolutely did. Tracy is professional, meticulous, and pays incredible attention to detail. My nails turned out even better than I imagined, and I couldn't be happier with them. Eric did my deluxe spa pedicure and did an amazing job on my gel French toes. Everything looked flawless, and the pedicure was so relaxing. The salon itself is a cute little shop that is very clean and welcoming. I also LOVE their massage chairs, they massage both your back and bottom. Overall, I had a wonderful experience from start to finish. I left feeling pampered, refreshed, and so happy with the results. Highly recommend Tracy and Eric. I've been trying to find a good nail salon near me but it's not easy finding a place that does a solid job on both nails and toes especially for french, something so basic. They do quality work here within reasonable price and I can't wait to come back.

UPDATED REVIEW!…read more Monet Spa and Nails is about convenience for me because it's down the street from my daughter's jiu jitsu class. I took a break from getting my nails done recently, but decided to come in this weekend to get a pedicure for our upcoming vacation. I made an appointment for 9:45am and was immediately greeted and seated at a pedicure station - I was also offered water too. I went with the Deluxe Pedicure which was $42 + extra for the Gel polish. The lady who did my pedicure was very friendly while taking her time - she did a great job! They're very personable at Monet Spa which I also like - the owner remembered my name and that I'm married and have a daughter. The staff is always so grateful to see you back too! Overall, I'm glad I decided to come back and give them another chance. This is definitely my new favorite nail salon!
