Sandra is so nice! She greets you by name and her english is actually great. She does only solid color gel mani/pedis but it gets the job done. It was easy to make an appt, she's very responsive. I only did a pedi this time, and it was good! She was also so sweet and let me try out a few colors to confirm I liked the one I chose. I'd support her again, although she did mention pedis weren't her favorite to do since it hurts her back. LOL! read more

Quick response. Very clean. Great attention to detail. I would definitely go to her again!

Sandra is great! She offers regular polish, gel or dip. I just received a regular polish pedicure and it was a wonderful service with foot massage! Will be going back soon! read more

Mani-Pedi by Sandra - Nail Salons Near Me - San Francisco, California

Sandra is great! My pedicure and manicure were wonderful- we were the only two at the salon and it was very relaxing. She took her time with both and the work really shows in how great the quality is. My pedicure after two weeks still looks like she just finished and my gel manicure doesn't have any peeling, chipping etc (just my own growth on my nails). If you're looking for a well done classic pedicure/gel manicure, I recommend! read more

Sandra is friendly and careful with her services. I've had a few pedicures from her and she's is not only always responsive to my requests for booking but does a great job at cleaning my feet, buffing them, giving a light massage, and making sure my nails are painted nicely. I've definitely had other technicians who have hurt me in the process and I'm never in fear of that from Sandra. I would highly recommend her if you are looking for a quality nail service at a very reasonable price. read more

Sandra is very professional and her work is impeccable. I will be going back and I do recommend her. I had a gel mani-pedi.

SUMMARY: Atmosphere: friendly, professional, and high quality. Service: simple services but done top notch. Value: approx $25-40 various for nail services (prices may have changed since my pre-Covid services). I discovered Sandra via Yelp a few years ago when I resided in the area and wanted to find a good nail technician. She had stellar reviews, and those reviews are absolutely accurate. She's very accessible and responsive to text inquiries. She also does her best to accommodate your availability. But most importantly, she's kind and so so so incredibly great at her craft. She takes her time to ensure her work is quality and without blemishes. Additionally she is conscientious about you - not only does she keep in mind your safety but she remembers little details about her clients. read more

Fantastic work. Great price and good atmosphere. The work is good as I already said, but yelp is making me type 85 words before I can post. Enjoy! read more

Sandra is hands down the best manicurist I've seen. Her attention to detail is amazing. I never find a little gap, bump, or smudge. Her gel mani lasts a solid three weeks, and I'm a nurse! She is super friendly and funny. I've been going to her since Jan 2022. It's a no frills place; I don't go for the spa experience, I go for the expert nails. Sandra's space is located inside of Sisters Salon. I highly recommend her. She is a one woman show so she books up pretty fast. She always responds very quickly and is easy to schedule with. read more

Consistent, kind and professional. Sandra's work is always good and she's pleasant to be around. read more

Sandra is an excellent manicurist & pedicurist. She is meticulous and friendly. I enjoyed the experience. Nice place.

WOW! Had my first appt with Sandra last week - by far the best mani/pedi I have had in AGES! She is very kind and gentle - sometimes at other salons have felt like a piece of meat being maneuvered around - needless to say not relaxing.. I look forward to my next appt!! Thanks Sandra :) Coni read more

Sandra is meticulous and thorough! I'm SO glad I found her!! I will use her for all my pedicures moving forward. I have been hesitant going elsewhere for pedicures because nail technicians are often rushing through the process and leave me feeling more stressed than relaxed. Highly recommend Sandra! My feet are very happy Book early with her! She is by appointment only. I called early the day before to get an appointment where she had a couple slots and is fully booked. read more

Sandra is so great! She's extremely thorough and meticulous with nails. She takes her time cleaning and buffing them before applying any polish. I was surprised how much healthier my nails looked before she even put polish on! After I finished my mani pedi, I accidentally ruined one of the nails when getting my car keys. I went back to the salon and Sandra was able to immediately fix it. She's gracious with her time and attention. Sandra truly cares about her customers' experience, would definitely recommend! read more

Sandra is amazing. Super detailed and careful, and won't settle for anything less than perfect. Also great prices!! Definitely my go-to going forward. read more

Sandra is amazing! I always have trouble with nail polish chipping soon, and have found her pedicures last the longest of anywhere I've gone in the city. She's easy to reach by Yelp or text, and makes a pedicure such a pleasant and relaxing experience. read more

absolutely recommend sandra !! it was only my 3rd time getting a professional mani/pedi & i was nervous due to my previous experiences with nail techs being pretty rough on my nails, but sandra is not only gentle and considerate with you but also detailed and super friendly:-) she even helped to carefully clean and execute polish on some sensitive areas such as a blister near my toe and a nail i had accidentally cut too short. i love the way my hands and feet turned out! will definitely be back read more

Great manicure and pedicure. Sandra runs her own show and so you always know what you're going to get.

First time this week and she got it all right without my having to tell her what I like. Perfect pedi!

Sandra is super detail oriented, thoughtful, and patient. Great service and care! I go to her regularly for gel mani and pedis and my nails always turn out neatly read more

Sandra is very detailed and fast. She tested out colors on my nails to make sure I liked them. My gel mani/pedi came out great. I was really happy with the way they turned out. The facilities is a no frills kind of place and pedi chair I sat on was uncomfortable. Cost for gel mani/pedi was $80. read more

Mani-Pedi by Sandra - Nail Salons Near Me - San Francisco, California

First, the service was great, she was really nice and easy to talk to. But the execution itself I was not fully satisfied. It is $28 to get a gel manicure and $5 to take off my previous gel (free if your previous one is by her). I just think that she is not as detail-oriented as I wanted her to be, comparing to my past experience with other people. While she was shaping my nails, a lot of them were slated and I had to point them out to her before she start painting my nails. For one of them, she couldn't really see in what way they were slated and I had to clearly show it to her. She flipped my hands so that my nails were facing up and that's when she made the shape better. The painting part was fine through out. Until I left the store, came home and saw that on my ring fingers, there are these three random black dots on the nail. And they are under the top layer of the polish. I was very upset about this. Good thing though I went back the next day and she quickly fixed it for me and then my nails looked great! Now, a week and a half later and my nails have started to grow out, you can see that the border of the polish on my pointy finger has polish that is lifted up a little. This is due to the fact that she did not clean out my nails properly and there are still polish sticking to the skin on the side of my nail. Kudos to good price, great service and using my favorite gel polish brand (gelish). But not detail-oriented and I do not want to be staring down at each of my nail for her to get my manicure perfect. read more

Sandra is so great! She is friendly, meticulous, and also make sure your preference & happy along the way. Also no gossiping in a foreign language. read more

I went to Sandra for the first time yesterday. I was in her neighborhood and was desperate for a pedicure. I called her and was delighted that she was available. I had tried to get into 3 salons the previous day and nobody could take me! She is as most of the other reviewers have described her: friendly, fast-but-not-rushed, detailed, and thorough. She speaks English well and I had no trouble understanding her (even though I have a hearing problem.) It took about 45 minutes to make my toes look beautiful again. She even had the brilliant idea of putting my sandals on before she applied the polish, so that the polish would not get messed up by trying to get my feet into the straps with wet polish on my toes. (I wore the wrong sandals.) I really appreciated that. Even though she is a 25 minute drive from where I live near Japantown, I would still go back to her. read more

WOW! Sandra is magic, I have been getting a manicure since i was 15. She is by far the best in the city!! I have tried plenty of nail technicians and none seem to match her skills and service. I would not hesitate to recommend her. Everyone thinks my nails are fake even after 2 weeks, THANK YOU SANDRA!! read more
