    Lovely place. They are new to the area but not new to the nail community. They relocated from Hayward to San Leandro. I don't have a particular nail shop that I go to. I simply looked for nail shops near me and this place popped up. It's clean. The people are friendly. They have a large variety of acrylic colors. And the instrumental music they play is relaxing.

    I love coming here! Vee and Vivian are amazing! They always make you feel warm and welcomed. They can do any design, and amazing mani/pedis plus acrylics. My favorite to get is the chrome or just a regular gel manicure. I drive 25 min+ just to come here. You're the best, Mix Nails & Spa!

    Great pedicure!

    I would give this place a 5 for my pedicure and a 2.5 for my Gel-X fill. This was my first time coming here, and like many salons, they seem to focus more on quantity than quality. One thing I really don't like is when salons try to do your pedicure and manicure at the same time. It feels like it's done for their convenience, not the customer's. It's uncomfortable having to pull your arm across your body just so the technician can stay in one spot. If you're offering both services at once, the technician should adjust and move around so the client is comfortable, not the other way around. As for my Gel-X fill, I wasn't impressed; there was no attention to detail. My nails were not painted well, and there was no proper buffing, so the edges don't feel as smooth as I prefer. That said, I do love the shape and they have a good color selection. Their prices are also very affordable, and the location is convenient. On a positive note, the young lady who did my pedicure was amazing. She listened, paid attention to detail, and provided great service. The foot and leg massage was excellent! Unfortunately all of the pedicures don't come with massages which I found odd and disappointing so I recommend getting the higher priced one so that you can get a great massage. I may come back for a pedicure because of that experience, but I don't think I'll return for a fill. You only get one chance to make a first impression, and when providing a service, every client should be treated like it's their first visit, because at any moment, they can choose to go elsewhere. And with so many nail salons out there, repeat business is not something you can take for granted.

    Vivian was amazing! I asked for gel x and a specific design , which she executed beautifully ! She was so sweet during the entire appointment . I also want to add I'm particular about the shape of the nail and request tapered square and Vivian did not play when she filed away and made my shape crisp as an Apple. 10/10 I will of course come back and book again! Plus you can't beat these prices and quality love this place down honey !

    Loved my pedicure for Vegas!

The staff was friendly, professional, and made me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in. They paid great attention to detail, and my French tips came out clean, elegant, and exactly what I wanted. The salon was clean, relaxing, and had a welcoming atmosphere. I really appreciated the care and time they took to make sure everything looked perfect. My pedicure not only looks amazing but also felt incredibly refreshing. I highly recommend Aesthetic Nails to anyone looking for quality nail services and excellent customer care. I'll definitely be coming back!

    I have been a repeat customer at Aesthetic Nails for quite some time, and like many salon clients,…read moreI've developed a preference for a specific technician. Unfortunately, my experiences on 7/1 and 7/29 have left me seriously considering taking my business elsewhere. Both times, I booked my appointment online and specifically requested my preferred technician. When I arrived on 7/1, I was told, "She's not working today," and was assigned to another technician instead. I did not have a positive experience with that appointment, but I let it go and assumed it was a one-time issue. I scheduled another appointment with my preferred technician for 7/29. When I arrived, I was told once again that she was not working and was being passed to another technician. What was even more disappointing was the interaction that followed when I expressed my disappointment about this happening twice in the same month. The owner was dismissive and told me that my preferred technician has had Wednesdays off "for two years already" and that I should have known. She also stated that I didn't understand what she told me during my previous visit. However, when someone says, "She's not working today," most people would reasonably interpret that to mean she is unavailable that day, not that she never works Wednesdays. That information was never clearly communicated to me. If this technician truly does not work Wednesdays, the online booking system should reflect that. As of the time I am writing this review, the website still shows availability for her on future Wednesdays, allowing customers to book appointments that apparently cannot be honored. What bothered me most was the lack of accountability and empathy. In my experience with other service providers, whether salons, massage therapists, or instructors, if the person you booked with is unavailable, the business contacts you beforehand so you can decide whether to keep the appointment with someone else or reschedule. Instead, Aesthetic Nails' process appears to be confirming appointments by text, having customers arrive for their scheduled appointment, and only then informing them that their requested technician is unavailable before assigning them to someone else. I didn't raise the issue on 7/1, but after it happened again on 7/29, I felt it was important to bring it to management's attention. Unfortunately, my concerns were met with a dismissive attitude rather than an effort to understand or resolve the situation. If you don't have a preference for a particular technician and are comfortable being reassigned upon arrival, Aesthetic Nails may still work well for you. However, if booking with a specific technician is important to you, my experience is that the online scheduling system and communication process may not be reliable or a positive experience.

I called ahead of time to ask what time they close, in which the guy told me 10pm. I told them I'd be there at 6:45pm, and when I did get there, I patiently waited 45 mins to be seated in a chair. I asked if they could do a 3D design on my nails (which I had asked over the phone), and they said they could, but by the time I was seated, and I showed one of the techs what I wanted, she said they stop doing designs at 7pm. I was very frustrated because I could have gone somewhere else if I knew I couldn't get the birthday nails I wanted, but at that point it was too late. So I found a more simple look, in which they agreed they would do. Holly did amazing on my pedicure, but by the time they got to my manicure, I could tell they were rushing. I'm a very understanding and kind person. I honestly wish I had just canceled the manicure. They didn't even prep my nails (i.e. remove my cuticles). The cherry on top was how expensive it was for such a poor job -- $150 . I feel so taken advantage of honestly, and it's a really bad start to my birthday now. She even forgot to put a top coat on my left hand and I can tell the difference.

I moved to Hayward recently and had been bouncing around trying to find a new nail spot--came across Sam's page because I was curious about Russian manicures and she does them beautifully. Just a heads up on the booking process: the site directs you to request an appointment, but it's not auto-confirmed--Sam has to accept it manually. For my first appointment, I booked for the next day and wasn't sure if it was going through, so now I just DM her directly to check in. Super easy once you know the flow. Sam herself is super sweet and easy to talk to. She recently went solo with her business, so it's just her now--and honestly, I love that. It's chill, one-on-one, and you can tell she really cares about quality. She has a gorgeous selection of colors and uses high-end products, which I think is why everything lasts so long. The first time I went, my nails were in sad shape and I honestly didn't think they'd bounce back. A month later? I've got legit nails I'm proud to show off. If you're looking for a new nail tech who's talented, kind, and really knows her stuff, definitely give Sam a try. I've already planned my next visit.

First, I was shocked that a basic kids' pedicure for my 8-year-old son cost $27. All they did was trim and clean his nails, followed by a short leg massage. That price seems extremely high for such a simple service, and there was never any discussion of pricing beforehand. The biggest issue, though, was my own nails. I paid about $55 for my gel manicure--$35 for gel polish, plus an additional $20 for a French tip and a small Mickey design. When I woke up the very next morning, less than 24 hours later, the entire gel polish had already peeled completely off one of my thumbnails. The French tip and Mickey design on other nails were also already lifting and peeling. I've never had a gel manicure fail this quickly. If I lived closer and didn't have to drive across the bridge, I would absolutely return to request a full refund because this level of quality is unacceptable. Between my dad, my two kids, and me, we spent close to $500, so we expected much better workmanship. My daughter's nails actually turned out great, so this review is strictly about the quality of my nails. One other thing that bothered me was my dad's pedicure. The staff kept offering him additional services during the appointment, and he kept saying yes without realizing each one came with an extra charge. By the end, his pedicure totaled over $100 plus tip. I really think pricing for add-on services should be clearly explained before they're performed so customers can make informed decisions. I've attached photos showing my thumbnail the morning after my appointment, along with photos I took the night before. It's incredibly disappointing to spend this much money and have a gel manicure start peeling in less than 24 hours.
