Excellent job! I had a wonderful experience at Modern Nails and Spa. From the moment I stepped through the door until I left the owner Ai Lien was professional, kind, and respectful. I'm very picky about my nails and she did a great job. I would highly recommend her nail salon and would return. I called for an appointment about 30 minutes prior to request a manicure and a spa pedicure. Upon arrival her shop was very clean, tidy and welcoming. Before she started the services she explained to me the pricing to make sure I was comfortable and I appreciated her transparency and honesty. During and after she checked in and asked me how I liked the mani and pedi. Lastly, I had some work done on my two big toes and she didn't try to upsell me on things that were not healthy for my feet (e.g., acrylic overlay). She truly cares about her customers and what's best for them and their overall health and the kind of look they desire. read more

I'm still seeing Lein every 2-3 weeks. I look forward to my appointments because she's great at her job, she's personable and she really goes out of her way to make me happy. One week I asked if she had Tiffany Blue ... she wasn't sure. We looked through all her colors and ultimately decided to mix two colors together and it looked great! The next time I came in she had bought it for me. Now that's service. I'm super happy with my gel French mani today and just had to post another 5-star review with a pic. read more

I am fairly new to this salon, and I've seen Lynn twice. She is thorough and kind! I really enjoy that she is appointment based as she's the only one running her business. She is always on time, and respectful/acknowledging upon arrival. She is very focused on providing services based on what is needed. For example, the first time I went in - I wanted just gel on my nails as they've been abused. She understood my needs, but said to strengthen them first. I followed what she said and now my second time back, she soaked off my nails and was able to apply gel as they strengthened from the last time I saw her. She not only evaluates what you want, but is interested in offering the best long term results. Which is something I value. Alongside with her following appt times, that's my favorite! She is sweet and I really enjoy her work ethic. Go see her! read more

I have been coming in for years. Friendly, fast and first rate service. My nails last from appointment to appointment with no worries and I get so many compliments. My only stop for mani-pedis and my favorite time to pamper myself. read more

I highly recommend Lyn owner of Modern Nails. I'm a bit nervous when it comes to pedicures and manicures. Lyn keeps her shop clean including professional tools used. She kindly offered advise when asked (color,shape of nails). Most importantly she was gentle! My feet and hands look beautiful. Thank you Lyn. I look forward to my next appointment. Already scheduled! read more

I am so happy to have found Lien. Her place is clean not dusty or cluttered with stuff like some salons. She is the first person who has taken the time to clean and trim my cuticles. My nail now float on the tips of my fingers like they are suppose to. I had no idea that was how they were to look. My nails and cuticles have never been healthier! Lien has a great smile and I always enjoy my time in the chair with her. read more

Lynn is the best. She always does the best to accommodate me. She does great work and my nails last a very long time. Her place hevery nice and clean. She doesn't tell you she has tome then has you waiting for an hour. She tells you exactly when she can take you. Her finish time is fast! But the job is beautiful. I highly recommend this nail spot. read more

Perfect manicure on under 30 minutes. This place knows what they are doing and accommodated me as a walk-in. My nails have been breaking and splitting recently and the manicurist gave me good advice to keep them healthy. She communicates very well and the shop is very clean. read more

I have been living in Woodland a little over a year now and I have used 3 different nail salons which seem to be really good at first but then not so much after a few visits, so I decided to search for a new place and I think I have finally found my permanent go to nail salon. The experience was amazing!!! It is a 1 woman shop and I enjoyed the fact that she took her time and provided great service. I am so happy with the results not only on my manicure and pedicure but also with my eyebrow waxing. I will definitely be back. Thank you Lien, you are awesome! read more

There are only two parking spots in front of the salon. There was also only one person working there on a Friday. Make an appointment and go with plenty of time to wait. Not so friendly. read more

This place is perfect. I went there for my first time today and was completely floored by how delightful my visit was. I was greeted and helped immediately when I walked in.

I very much enjoyed my visit with Lien at Modern Nails. What great customer service, Lien is quick and efficient and has many years of experience in her field. She was easy to chat with, conversation flowed and my nails came out wonderfully. Lien has her own shop, I contacted her through the Yelp app. She was quick to respond and easy to set an appointment with, Lien was also prompt to our appointment. I plan on being a return client as I enjoyed my appointment and the results of my nails. Make an appointment soon I'm sure you will enjoy your experience with Lien at Modern Nails. Also a bonus she is located on the west side of town . read more

Best place in town for a pedicure. She takes her time with the massage which is what other salons lack in town. Her pedis last for over a month easily (I get gel), where other places I'd need another pedicure in 3 weeks. Very clean salon, but she fills up fast so make an appt early! She's very busy! read more

Lein was so professional. This is the best full set manicure I've ever had. I was asked to come back in an hour as a walk-in because they were busy. I came back an hour later and didn't have to wait at all. I showed Lein a photo of what I was wanting. She not only got the idea of what I wanted, but it came out even better than the photo! (That never happens by the way.) The salon was clean and nicely decorated. In fact it had just been mopped when I came in. The files were new and single use. I'm also 6'0 tall and Lein got a bigger chair for my comfort without me saying anything. Even the underside of my nails were gleaming after my manicure. Again, that's a first! I will 100% be back and highly recommend this salon. NOTE: Apparently they only take cash and debit cards, but their prices are GREAT! read more

I had to find a nail salon last minute for my wedding, and came across Modern Nails here on Yelp. I didn't realize Lien was the owner and sole employee, but it was a nice change. I went with my step daughter, and even though it took a little longer since there were two of us, I'd go again if I was in the area. She was very friendly and helpful with our nail decisions. Plus, our nails looked great for my wedding. Thank you! read more

I highly recommend Modern Nails & Spa! Lien does a terrific job for both my nails and pedicures. My previous nail lady i had gone to for many many yrs retired and it's hard to find someone who does great nails, but i have to tell you Lien is even better. She's very friendly and efficient. read more

Not so great. I left with gel on every single one of my fingers. Not just the nail, but the finger. And when the technician realized it after she had dried them, she then used cuticle clippers to cut away the hardened gel....and some of my skin. I left with three sore, clipped fingers, and gel nails that started to chip THR NEXT DAY!! I was there with a bridal party and we only had two hours for all 6 of us. They were given advance notice and said they could do it, but ended up an hour and a half behind schedule! The bride was late to her own rehearsal! When called on it, the owner then blamed the girls who got gel nails, saying those take longer. Um....that's why I said I would do regular if gel took longer and the owner herself had assured me it wouldn't take longer and that they had time. I left with bubbles and lint in several of my nails and many are chipped. I will not be back. read more

Great shop! I lucked out when I arrived as someone didn't show up for her appointment. While it says Walk Ins Welcome, this is a one woman shop and she's almost always booked. She did a wonderful pedicure and I wish she could have kept rubbing my feet-she was that good! read more

Service here was very friendly. Loved the warm chat. The facility is clean and cozy not crowded or cluttered. I came in to take off my old acrylic set and get a new one, along with a pedicure. Boy was I satisfied! My nails look so natural and feminine. And even though the take off hurt, my nail tech was quick and got through the task with little incident. My pedicure was great too!! Basic pedicure includes a quick hot stone massage at the end! Nothing short of Wonderful :) I got a full acrylic set and a basic hot stone pedi for $40! Can't beat that, and the workmanship is WELL worth it! Thank you ladies!!! read more

I've been looking for a new nail place for a while now and had come across this one on Yelp but wasn't sure about it. When a friend recommended it, I decided to check it out. I was surprised when I walked in and saw he inside. The atmosphere was relaxing and comfortable and the staff were very nice and accommodating. Best part is I got a great gel manicure and pedicure with paraffin, hot stones, different scrubs and masks, all for less that what I have been paying for a basic mani/pedi in other places around town. I will definitely be back. read more

Today was my first time in and wow I'm so in love with this nail salon! Seriously the first nail salon I've walked into and felt relaxed and it's CLEAN and has such cute décor, Staff was so nice and accommodating. I had to get my nails corrected and reshaped from another salons errors and she did a wonderful job on my nails ! I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS SALON TO ANYONE. HAPPY CUSTOMER HERE :) read more

Lien is awesome! She is a perfectionist and it shows in the quality of my nails. I'm a hairstylist and my hands are always in water. I use to get chipped gel polish by week two. My gel polish done by her lasts me four weeks! She takes her time to expertly polish every nail so that every nail is even in color. She works alone so it's always relaxing and quiet in there. read more

What a pleasant surprise.... my first impression when I pulled into the little parking lot wasn't the best. I was worried that this place was one of those hole in the wall that might not pass health code. But once you walk in, you really do feel you're in a nice, clean spa. I really enjoyed my pedi there and the girls I brought with me agreed as well. Prices are AMAZING. Service was SUPERB. I've been to quite a few different places to get pedi and mani but this is probably the best experience I've ever had! The girls actually tried to have a conversation with me, and they actually did a wonderful job. They are willing to be a little creative with their nail designs as well. Which I appreciate quite a bit because I get tired of everyone only doing one design. Anyway, great place. It'll be a shame if you don't try this place out. read more

What a wonderful place. Came in for my first time, while in town feeling this out as I am considering a move. Of course I would need a good salon, and decided to give this place a try. Bright and clean and inviting. I got a royal treatment for a good price. Lin, was very friendly, and welcomed me to come back whenever if I am in town as well if I do wind up moving here. Good value price wise as well. Thank you. One happy customer read more

As I walked into this cute little nail shop I got a warm welcoming by Lein! She asked what I wanted and even gave me prices without asking her (most nail places wont tell you until finished) Anyway, I end up choosing my color and she starts doing my nails.. As were having a pleasant conversation I'm also noticing her techniques and cleanliness and let me just simply say that she is amazing at what she does!! I will definitely make this my primary go to nail shop!! read more

Lynn is so wonderful! This is probably the first salon in 10 that I have tried that have never once cut me! She really takes time to do your nails and you can even bring in your own designs for her to recreate! Overall I'd definitely come back to her whenever I need to do nails. It's a great value for the amount of work she does :) read more

MODERN Nails & Spa - Acrylic nude nails with a gold accented ring finger. - Nail Salons Near Me - Woodland, California

Modern Nails is a great place to get your nails done in Woodland! Good salons are hard to find in this town and Modern Nails is a GEM. It is very clean and the owner and staff are meticulous when it comes to their work. The "basic" mani/pedi is only $30 and includes a exfoliating leg scrub and a lengthy massage with hot stones! Also, great OPI color selection. Besides the high quality, I really appreciate the relaxing atmosphere at Modern Nails--no loud chattering or microwaves going off here. Instead, there is only tranquil music and the gentle sound of water flowing into foot baths :) Clean, high quality nail salons are tough to find in Woodland. If you are looking for beautiful nails, personal attention and a friendly sanitary atmosphere, Modern Nails is a MUST! read more

I go to this salon regularly. It's busy and an appointment is definitely recommended. If you call in advance she will find a way to fit you in. I enjoy both manicurists. I like the pedicures and I always get gel nails. They have a decent selection of colors. I like how she knows most of the customers by name. read more

I had to update my review based on my last experience here! I felt rushed and my nail polish came off the next day!
