The Lotus hair salon is where I receive all my beauty services (nails, lashes, waxes & etc). I love Maria, she is always willing and ready to book me and is more than willing to adjust me to a specific time. I typically work 9-5 during the weekdays so she was kind enough to open her availability to two Saturday's of the month for her clients whom work during the weekdays! Maria always makes sure to give me a call whenever she has a cancellation as I am a faithful customer of hers. That is specifically why I continue to go to the salon. Excellent customer service is provided here! Maria is the only one who custom makes my press on toes! Geraldine is another amazing worker whom also contacts me whenever she has a cancellation and manages to fit me in! The lotus salon is where I see myself confusing to receive beauty services for a very long time!! read more

They DO NOT REQUIRE masks! They also do not do any any temp checks. There are no windows open for ventilation and door was closed. It was extremely stuffy. Half of the salon had masks, pretty scary especially on a busy day. They do not care to protect there clients, there are so many people that have conditions that can lead to death because of Covid-19. They could care less. They are laughing right along with these mask less customers! On another note-Geraldine is GREAT! She has such a relaxing atmosphere in her area, it is unfortunate that you must walk through that mess to get to her. First the instant stench of acrylic nail chemicals, then mask less clients, followed by hair dye chemicals. She should look into getting her own location. I will not be going back. read more

So I was searching through Yelp for a nail salon here in merced. Ive gone to Nail Time, BJ's Nails, Ruby's Nails, Rose's Nails and they just didn't do good enough for me to stick with. And I did give them each at least two tries. I came across Lotus Salon that caught my attention by its reviews. I messaged them through Yelp and right away Maria, the owner, contacted me. She was very nice and accommodating. I went in and she's really easy going and friendly. She did an awesome job on my nails. I told her I usually get basic nails and she showed me the platinum colors. I chose the one I wanted and I LOVE IT!!! I'm hoping I just found my permanent nail tech! thanks Maria for your help!!! read more

Maria is a true artist!! After trying a couple other places and having disappointing results, I searched here on Yelp and found Lotus Salon. Maria was quick to message me back and I was able to get in the next day (today). I am going on vacation tomorrow and my nails need to be on point at Denver Pridefest and for my birthday. I gave her an idea of what I wanted and she absolutely delivered way better than what I even anticipated. Her salon is clean and comfortable and she is just a pretty cool chick to have conversation with while I was in her chair. I am so relieved that I have finally found a new nail tech! Thank you Maria!! read more

I absolutely love this place! I have been going to this salon to get my hair done for almost 2 years with Brittany. Unfortunately, she moved but I am making my next appointment with Liz! I have seen her work when I go to the salon and it is absolutely beautiful. I have been getting my nails done with Maria and she is amazing! I always love my nails or hair when I come out of that salon. I am super picky on who touches my hair and who does my nails and I trust them with everything! Definitely recommend this place no matter who you make your appointment with! read more

Absolutely fabulous place! Great service, atmosphere, and music. Maria is the best nail technician I've run across in years, as well as she's very friendly! Vanessa provided a cut and dye for my daughter and we couldn't be happier! It was daughters first time having her hair colored, and Vanessa made us feel super comfortable by asking us questions and keeping us informed step by step in the process, as this can be a drastic change. Everyone is genuinely friendly, and the establishment is very clean and in a nice area. Look forward to returning! Angelina read more

After a month of having my hair down at Lotus Salon, I came back to have my eyelashes done by Yee. She was great! I love my eyelashes, and I would definitely recommend her 10/10. I also did my nails with Cat. She is amazing, and my nails are perfect! I rarely do my nails, and she exceeded my expectations. One last thing, I had my eyebrows done with Pree. She was so sweet and the whole process took less than 5 mins! I cannot recommend this salon enough to my friends. If you live in Merced, you must try this place. The staff and vibe are superb! read more

I felt like running out the door the entire time I sat in the chair. The stylist talked constantly to the stylist behind her the entire duration of my appointment. She even made jokes about my grey, and how she doesn't want to even think about getting old and getting grey. This trip was supposed to make me feel better about myself not have my age thrown in my face. Like it's a joke to age. Poor, rude excuse of a salon. Do not step foot in this dump! You will regret it. Don't waste your money. Go elsewhere where clients are treated with respect.. read more

Maria the nail tech is rude and arrogant. Was not courteous or personable during appointment. The entire time she spoke only about herself, she is very jealous of other nail technicians in town. She had mouthed a few while I was there, including Alison Nicole Nails Co. she feels inferior there for she must say these awful things about other local technician. She does so-so work, nothing special and VERY expensive. She also does not do any 3D, designs. it's basically just acrylics with polish and some bedazzle. read more

I've been to this salon for a few services and they are amazing! Everyone is kind and welcoming! I got lash extensions with Lindsay & she does a great job, she's kind and patient and willing to work with your schedule to find a time for you! I also got a nail fill from Shea and she was great! She paid so much attention to detail and took the time to make sure my nails were perfect and exactly what I wanted! Overall, I've had great experiences here & will definitely be going back & recommending it to others! read more

First off this salon is so cute! The decor and environment is welcoming and so nice! I haven't gotten my hair done here but my lash lady Jazmin is THE BEST. She's super efficient with an affordable price for amazing quality lashes! Like I said never had my hair or nails but the women are very friendly and they're always tending to clients when I show for my appointments so I'm sure they're great stylist and nail techs! Definitely check them out if you're trying to find a new nail, hair, lash place! read more

This place is dirty, dingy, and the apparent paint makeover did not go well. The furniture is dated and looks like it came from the trash. Even the floor looked as if it hadn't been mopped in weeks! Disgusting. Nail area is messy, unorganized and even the magazines were from years ago. The pedicure area was basically a bucket on the floor with semi cool water. No massage. Nail polish chipped away within hours. What should have been a relaxing experience ended up being a waste of time and money. read more

Maria is such a great person. As I take the time to write this review I would like to thank her for her awesome and fantastic job! I go there on a regular bases to get a Pedicure and a full set of acrylics and I truly enjoy supporting her business. People who take time to write a nasty review mostly post negative reviews when they don't feel good about their own lives and simply need to criticize others to feel good about themselves LOL. Take the time to support! Book an appointment! read more

Totally recommend this Salon, always so neatly organized and clean! Maria, has been doing my nails for over half a year. I have been to SOOOOOO many places to get my nails done, and she is by FAR, the BEST NAIL TECH!!! Strongly recommend her and all the beautiful girls here. Best of luck in this new ADVENTURE Maria, i have NO DOUBT, that you will do GREAT, because you are such a hard worker, SMART, beautiful, loving and passionate about your career.

I have to give this salon 5 stars. I've been coming here for a year in a half already for nails, eyebrows, lashes & hair! I love my nail tech Maria. She always goes far & beyond to meet my needs. She's a very sweet person & is always making sure her clients leave satisfied! She is very humble & honest about her work. I always look forward to getting my nails done because I know she will greet me with a smile! Keep up the good work guys! read more

Found this salon about 9 months ago and now i will always go there for all my necessities! Maria always does my nails and of course I always love the outcome. She is so nice, takes her time, and talks to you like you're her best friend. Also, I had my hair done here, the lady is no longer there, but there is another awesome stylist there! Highly reccomend this salon if you love a welcoming and friendly environment! read more

You will be paying high end prices for second rate service and products. And as a bonus while you should be relaxing you will hear the lady who does nails tell you her whole life story! Including being fired from her previous job, her husbands medical condition, amongst other bits. So basically she bought this salon with drug money... buyer beware with this location! read more

I definitely recommend going to get your nails done here! They offer other services if you want a self care type of day. The ladies in there are super sweet and welcoming once you enter. My nail tech Maria is so amazing! She always takes good care of me when I'm there and is super sweet and funny. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and fun time! read more
