I've been going to Modern Nails for 10 years, and I absolutely love this place! My loyalty to them comes from the amazing service, dedication, and care they've consistently shown over the years. Everyone is always so nice and welcoming! Sydney does an amazing job on my nails every single time, and I'm always happy with the results. I highly recommend Modern Nails to anyone looking for great service and beautiful nails! read more

I called around 4p on a Friday, requesting to be serviced (gel pedicure). They were able to take me immediately when I walked in 10 minutes later. Hannah did my pedicure, which was okay. She was very nice, but I could tell she was learning. While I got the package pedicure, it took 1 hour and 50 min. That is a bit longer than I would have liked. At the end of my pedi I went to the bathroom and noticed that my paint wasn't fully dry when she added the oil/alcohol, so my toes were matte and required fixing. I also had to request that she remove more of the dead skin nails, which someone else stepped in to do - then dig so deep my toe started bleeding. I want to like this place so bad because of the convenience, however $72 (gel pedi + 1 nail with powder) is a bit much when I have to watch and request changes are made to improve the quality. I did find a lady that did hands (Mai) and since I saw her work, I would go back to try her, but pedicures may be out for me here. 0 stars. Had to come back in two weeks because my big toes had cracked and or lifted. This was a gel manicure. This has never been the case for any quality pedicures I have received, as they typically last 4-5 WEEKS! when I came back and showed the lady how badly my toe was bleeding when I walked out of here, she told me that had happened somewhere else and I should have told someone I was bleeding. I explained to her that they knew I was bleeding because they had tried to stop it, however, when I walked out it was continuing to bleed. read more

My fiancée and I had a wonderful pedicure experience with Sen and Lucy! They are incredibly talented, attentive, and detail-oriented. Their warm and welcoming manner made the visit feel comfortable and relaxing, and I truly appreciated the care they put into their work. It was a lovely way to unwind together. I highly recommend them! read more

After testing out 3 other local nail shops, Modern Nails has become my go-to spot for pedicures, gel nails, and an occasional eye brow wax. The ladies are friendly, place is clean, and you never have to wait long for service. I know many others feel the same because you'll never see this place without customers. They are consistent and are about their hustle - professionals in their craft. read more

I love this sweet little salon. It's spotless. Mostly quiet with lovely Vietnamese music on the PA. I routinely go for a pedicure on weekday or Sunday afternoons and it never feels rushed or stressy. Mimi is my go-to. Oh, that woman gives the best leg and foot massage, plus my toes always look neat and pro. $30 cash for basic pedicure as of 5/2026. read more

I lalalove my mani and pedi! The gentleman who did them did an amazing job! I will absolutely return!

I went in for a pedicure on a week day. I didn't have an appointment, they were quick to bring me in. I had a lovely time with the person performing the service. My feet came out looking clean and nails very well polished. The parking was easy and there was no wait or busy location. They have massage chairs that are really nice to enjoy while getting a manicure. I don't get manicures often but I would if it was at this location. read more

I got a fill done with Sydney and I looked it! It was so relaxing plus inexpensive compared to other places!

Visited the salon to understand all the services and to schedule an appointment for my husband and I. A couple manicurists looked up from clients to ask how they could help me. I announced why I was there and began reviewing the prices and services until someone was free to help me. Minutes later no one came to help. I continued reviewing the price list now feeling embarrassed as I waited for help. Employees were walking by and not one word. I quietly returned the price menu and left. read more

If I could have given this place negative 5 stars, that's how bad it would be. I went in for a simple manicure. No color, no clearcoat. The gentleman who did my manicure took 40 minutes and clearly had no idea what he was doing. He used tools from a packet that was opened. It quite literally is the worst manicure I've ever gotten. He also nicked the side of my finger. I did not leave a tip. read more

Wow! This was the spot I would come to when in Sacramento. I came before my birthday to get a pedi and gel mani. Not even 2 days and my thumb nail gel polish came off. I had a guy that was taking his time until this lady told him to let her paint my nails. She did it too fast and layered the polish too thick that's why I feel the polish lifting. So upset that she rushed it and only lasted two days!! So upset I paid more at this location than at my spot in the Bay Area and my gel manicure only lasted 2 days! 2 stars for the guy who took his time! read more

Not professional and can't do designs the employees are very lazy. Cynthia which is the worker when I asked if she can do my nails she stated she was to tired it's 11:00a.m her stating that to me made me very uncomfortable. I don't recommend to come here. Workers are lazy and unprofessional. read more

Like any woman who loves to be pampered, I don't take my mani, pedis and massages lightly and the experience has to be great!! I was hesitant to try this place based on the reviews about service and some even called it cheap! Heck no! This place is just awesome! Me and my hubby went here for Mani and Pedi and we loved the service here and wow I really love how my nails were done plus the pedi massage was outstanding. We went for OPI four in 1 for both mani and pedi. Love the vibe .. it's full of energy, didn't say any frowns.. Give this place a try! Thanks Mimi, Nancy and Patricia .. you all are awesome! I will be back in three weeks! read more

So they're fast, which I appreciated. My schedule was tight that day and it took only about 40 mins to do my short almond acrylic set. But they're work is pretty sloppy. Not all of my nails have the same length. And the shape is very wonky.. Also, I asked for a short acrylic almost set and she just immediately started cutting off all of my nails shorter than I wanted without verifying the length beforehand. That's on me too for not asking her to redo it and speaking up but I was in a rush as well. And also I am not the type to inconvenience someone by asking them to redo it. The next service I got was a pedicure. I asked for round twice .. and somehow ended with square nails . Again, I was too nice to ask them to redo it... Regardless, I tipped and left . Why am I like this?Also, I am new to getting my nails done, so idk if it's the standard to give a tip every time. But they were a little pushy with tipping, not with me, but with another lady I saw paying for her nails before me. So in general: if you're looking for a quick service, this is your place. But if you're a pushover like me, that can't ask them to redo things even when you really don't like your nails, id go to another place. read more

Recently been looking for a new nail place. Especially with COVID 19. Be advised they operate outside and have limited air. But if that don't bother you or your not disabled then come and give your business to these professionals. Also, if your disabled they will accommodate you with inside service. Go spend and you wont be dissatisfied. They also do eyebrows. Between Nancy and Danny my wife felt like they cared for her in all types of ways. This is my nee nail place and they still offer deluxe pedicures and manicures for those who go to the nail shop to relax. Prices are good and guaranteed quality. Hey don't take it from my plain clear pedicures mindset. Go try a nail shop that cares about customer service. Cash only. They are not Card friendly due to Covid 19. Make an appointment for a Spot. read more

Always an advertised discounted price that keeps me coming back. Walk in wait works. They also take appointments. Friendliness varies.

Called before coming to get pricing and make an appt. People were friendly but kept trying to up charge. Charged me a take off fee of $15 even though I was getting a gel nail service and pedicure. read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. I have never experienced such poor service when getting my nails done. I came in to get gel nails and once I came in and selected my polish, I was asked to pay beforehand. Okay, no problem, some salons are like that. However, with my gel nails, they didn't even use the light to cure the polish. With that being said, my nails were a mess and definitely were messed up while I was still in the chair. When I tried to bring up my issues and asked if they could fix my nails, I was told to not come back as they didn't have any more room to fit in an appointment today. Worst service I have ever received, I am never returning to this nail salon. read more

I think today was my last visit. I've been coming here for years and loved how Mylee and Danny did my nails. I don't know what's going on lately but the workmanship is what it used to be. I had someone else at Modern nails do my white tip full set and I asked for thin layer... well let me show you I asked her to clean the underneath too since there was gunk... I'm not going back. read more

Only reason I'm giving 2 stars is because the shape color n massage The manicurist Nancy disgustingly rude with me I asked which color would be lighter of the 2 pinks I had in mind and she remarked" u can see there two different number polishes u know as well as I do" than I chose a color and the lady brought 154 instead of 164 and I informed her and she said"I know what I'm doin let me handle it okay!" It was far from cuticle and chipped not even a week later read more

OUCH - Yesterday a sassy young girl (name not on receipt) cut my skin with the pumice after shaming me into buying the $35 pedicure. She yelled at me "why you not get this?" then waved the solution used to remove callus - which it did not. My heels look the same + scabs from cuts made above them. Fair warning: Never be pushed into getting this extra service, it's a waste of $10. Never again - it's a con to get more money for something I could have done better at home. That said, she did a nice job on the nail polish aspect, so I gave 1 star. Lesson to the proprietor: tell staff not to push patrons into buying more, it's unprofessional. And teach staff how to use pumice without cutting skin - it still stings! I won't be recommending this place to anyone because of my experience here. read more

Paid for 2 of the most expensive pedicures + gel, 2 basic manicures 1 child manicure and paint for child's fingers (170.5) NO TIP. Let me tell you what I didn't tip these rude ass people. When I tell you this place is trash I mean that just that. Because they're trying to fit everybody in that 20 minute time frame they're not allotting the time to do a proper pedicure. My sister and I decided to pay for the most expensive packages because our feet need some extra TLC. The Tonnel's were not file correctly we didn't even get the option to get them cut down gel paint was on the cuticle We asked multiple times for the nail tech to clean up the messed up parts. They just gave tons of TUDE! $23 for a child's pedicure and they didn't even massage her calves two more dollars she would've got a basic pedicure that gave her a hot stone massage and a scrub down I would've paid for that had I known that they weren't very upfront with the child prices and a lot of it was guessing They are just terrible at what they do and for what they charge. Spend tour money elsewhere.!!! read more

Sydney always slays my nails, 5 stars! They last over 3 weeks everytime and they are super affordable too!

Been going here since they charged 35$ a set. Inflation has changed prices but they have always been the best quality for what they charge. Most local shops cant/ wont do nail art for less than 60+. Needed short nails for work and got quoted 75$ for this design at Natomas Nails and 55$ at Modern. & All the techs are super sweet. read more

I'm doing this Yelp for a friend because she's waaaay too nice for her own good. My friend went to get a pedi a couple weeks ago and her toe ended up being freaking infected! Nail all black and puss coming out! Doctors told her she may have to get her entire nail removed and it may not grow back again. I'm so confused? Are you guys not cleaning your tools? Are you just doing a cheap job? I totally understand the whole being outside due to COVID but damn, that's trash if you guys are out here doing trash work with not sanitizing your equipment and taking upmost precautions. Like, look at your guys' reviews! Y'all be careful going here. UPDATE: My friend had to get her entire nail removed and had to get multiple shots on her toe because of it. If I were her, I would most definitely come back and give you guys a piece of my mind and have y'all pay for all my expenses. TERRIBLE. read more

A couple of the nail techs were VERY rude and I will never return. The salon itself was decent, but they need to be nicer to the customers.

TERRIBLE!! When asked for a basic pedicure they pushed the deluxe even when told no. They still did the deluxe and charged me for it. My manicure is worse then not having one. The dip is thick and when asked for glitter ombré the nail tech tried to do the whole nail like I didn't ask 5 times for only glitter on the bottom part for the ombré. My nail lengths are uneven and not even straight across the top. I even paid cash in advance with 25%tip in advance as a kind gesture. As a paying customer they had no respect for my requests. I have had better by 5 year olds. And there was no actual manicure aspect. No lotion, hand rub or kindness from the tech just attitude. Better off saving money and having manly looking hands than this. Will not ever go back. read more

Called around 4:30 asking for a gel manicure and pedicure. They said to go now. So I went. They have 2 chairs outside and pedicures operating inside. My service was 5/10. As soon as I walked inside it seemed like a mess in there. They had a large group come in so 7/8 of the pedicure chairs were taken. So I decided not to get the pedicure anymore. Just the gel manicure. They hand me a broken binder with the gel colors. I pick my color and the lady gets started on my nails. She did good, but not great. I've had A LOT better gel manicures. They use a weird smelling lotion after and a hot towel to wipe off the lotion. Gel manicure is $25. I tipped $3 + .50 cent card fee. It's 2020, nobody carry's cash anymore people!! Mehhhhhh. Should've driven 25 minutes to KB Nails. read more
