I adore Aree. I came to her with very damaged nails (unfortunately due to a very serious mistake made by my previous salon - they had me soak my nails in acetone for over 30 mins while waiting for my scheduled appointment - lesson learned, I shoulder part of the blame because perhaps I should have know better). In any case, Aree, through her patient and loving care, has been restoring my nails back to a healthy state, while also making them beautiful. She is organized, meticulous, warm and attentive. I am so incredibly grateful that I found Aree - she is a true gem and a master at her craft. read more

I did a Groupon with Aree for a pedicure with 10 minute foot and lower leg massage at her El Camino in Daly City location. First of all, online scheduling (and rescheduling for me) was quick and easy. Lots of free and convenient parking is an added plus. I was very comfortable with Aree's clean work space and covid precautions. She takes her time to do an exceptional pedicure. The added lower leg massage is the perfect pressure to feel fantastic and make me wish she was a full body practicioner. Thank you Aree! You have new regular clients in my family. read more

I purchased a Groupon for a gel manicure based on the good reviews on yelp. Reservations were easy to make online. Taking off two stars for the following: - after one week of getting my nails done, I noticed some nails starting to come apart - I didn't do anything heavy handed and I wore gloves when washing dishes etc. - some nails are inconsistent. One of my fingers has a thicker layer of gel, one is not entirely smooth, etc - I asked for squoval shaped nails. One hand is more square shaped, and the other more round/oval - a little heavy handed on cuticle pushing - wish there was a wider selection of colors for gel mani And lastly, while she was trimming my cuticles, I got a small cut. Overall: Aree is friendly but I didn't have the best experience, but she is located in a private room which could be nice if you like some privacy read more

Aree did an excellent job on my nails. She takes her time and makes sure I am comfortable. I am so happy I found her.

Went in for a gel mani with gel removal for my old polish. Aree is lovely and I enjoyed talking to her while she carefully removed my polish. She took her time to make sure my nails were perfect so if you're looking for a quick in and out this prob isn't the place for you. Overall, love the color of my nails.

She did such an amazing job on my toes, was so careful and thorough & paid so much attention to detail! I've been to other nail salons for pedicures & after looking at my toes up close (always after leaving ) they'd look so sloppy. & with Aree, my toes look amaaazing up close, far away, you name it. I only trust her from here on out! read more

I am not the one to write reviews but felt compelled after my terrible experience with Aree. Got a gel manicure for my birthday which was way overpriced for her services ($49 for a gel replacement and no manicure). Doesn't have a range of colors, used an electric filer aggressively and damaged my nails and worst of all kept complaining about my nails. She made me feel extremely uncomfortable by talking my ear off about how careful and awesome she is, meanwhile being extremely careless. Probably the worst nail experience I ever had. Absolutely would not recommend to anyone. Update: less than 24 hours after the manicure, my gel is already lifting from my nails. She absolutely ruined my birthday treat. read more

Aree is so kind and friendly! She pays attention to the details and kept checking in with me to make sure I was comfortable and satisfied with her work. My feet are soooo soft and pretty. I felt very safe since there is only one customer at a time. The shop is super clean which is a must for me. I will be back for sure! Blessings! read more

I had found Aree on Yelp when she had a nail station at Amy Salon and followed her when she moved to Sasa beauty. She has her own private room now and it's very relaxing.

Her attention to detail to amazing and takes pride in her work. Definitely a great experience! read more

Nails By Aree - My gel manicure today. Love it! - Nail Salons Near Me - Daly City, California

This is the best place I've been to for gel removal! I called at 4pm and Aree was able to squeeze me in for an appointment after 5pm which I was so happy about. Usually I get my nails done in Seoul when I'm there and get them removed when I'm back but the style/design and gel polishes are different to what the U.S. is used to with all the gems and stones, etc. Side note: Previously I've been to the one on Irving and 19th/20th where they rush with removal and can't even honor the appointment times, and they couldn't even bother to reply to Yelp messages after reading them. And another one on Noriega and 20th/21st where they only used nail files to get off thick gel polishes wITH gems inside the gel. They actually had the machines to get rid of the gel but the owner insisted on soaking and using nail files because the drill will apparently cause too much of a mess. And my nails were in the worse condition after with all the scratches they made and my nails were constantly breaking. Anyways when I arrived I made sure to ask Aree on whether she has the machine to remove gel because I would've left since I didn't want to take that risk after my previous traumatizing experience. She has had experience with removing Japanese/Korean/Asian design style nails so she knew it would take more care and time to remove than usual. She was in no rush and was gentle and precise. Usually when using the drill, it can thin out your nails but Aree was so careful that she practically just removed the gel polish so now my nails aren't thinned. She did an amazing job for me! I will definitely come back again!! read more

Aree was so sweet!! She did a great job and really took her time with each nail. She also was very clean the entire time. Great conversation and great job overall. Would totally come back! read more

I am so happy I found Aree, my nails are now perfect everything is extremely clean and great choice of colors!

I went to get my nails done by Aree yesterday. Her appointments are all scheduled conveniently online. I had to reschedule twice but it was so easy for me to pick a new time since its all done on her booking app. Aree is so sweet and patient! She is so detailed and delicate as well. I love supporting independent artists like her. She has a lovely private room at a bigger salon. Its much more intimate and more relaxing to have a conversation compared to being out in the open with people zipping by, radio/music playing, people chatting, etc. Also, its so nicely ventilated in that room, no nail smell like the bigger salons where everything just permeates. I found her on Groupon because I didn't know where to go since theres soooo many nail places in SF. I definitely will go back. Told all my friends about her too. read more

I just booked an appointment today through an ap called Square where I can book my appt ahead of time which can be found on her website paintnailbyaree.com. She did a fabulous job as always and just moved to a new location on Taraval that is right by my house! read more

Nails By Aree - Pedicure!! - Nail Salons Near Me - Daly City, California

What a great experience today with Aree! Very professional, kind and gentle! So greatful for her patience! Thank you for making this overdue pedicure a breeze! See you next week! read more

Based on all the great reviews, I made an appointment to get a gel mani. Let's start with the pros: 1. Aree's place is close to work and home which makes it super convenient for me logistically. 2. Aree is super friendly and her area in the salon that she rents out of is clean and tidy. 3. Her prices are fair: $23 for pedicure and $25 for a gel mani ($30 if she has to remove old gel). Now for the cons: 1. I wish I had taken pictures because the shape of my nails were pretty bad. I asked for square nails and I understand our nails aren't symmetrical but they came out really uneven. 2. The gel she placed was thicker on some nails while others looked liked they needed another coat. On a couple of nails, the gel set on my skin making my nails look wider than they really are. 3. She took nearly 2 hours to do my nails. I know she's a small business and Yelp reviews like mine are hurtful to her business. On the other hand, after reading such wonderful 5 star reviews, I expected more than mediocre work. read more

So fortunate to have found Aree last minute. I was able to take an opening due to a cancellation. I had existing gel on both hands and feet. She was careful not to cause any hurt. I am a bit sensitive when it comes to removing gel and shaping nails. Aree is very personable and will make you feel as if you are in your own home. I was comfortable in her company and enjoyed her work with attention to detail. Glad to say I have found my new regular go to gal. You'll enjoy her very clean and organized space. Thank you Aree for taking care of me! read more

Found Aree on Groupon, and couldn't be more pleased with my gel mani! I work nearby, and it's a great location close to MUNI with easy street parking. The space itself is very clean and with a nice aesthetic. Aree herself is so sweet, and her attention to detail is greatly appreciated! Now I will head into the holidays rocking some fire engine red nails. read more

Aree is such a sweet person. She does really good feet massages and always has a smile. I love the color I picked. read more

Writing this review on behalf of my mom as she doesn't yelp - she couldn't stop praising you during our phone call the other day, Aree! My mom came in for a mani-pedi not too long after she sustained a foot injury. Aree did a meticulous, long-lasting job, and took the utmost care to avoid any discomfort or pain when working on her pedicure. I think it's rare to find someone so considerate and thorough. My mom's experience was positive, pleasant, definitely pain-free, and she appreciated the sincere concern, care and attention Aree took in the mani-pedi. She will be a return customer. Thanks, Aree! :-* read more

I just had a mani-pedi with Aree and am very happy. She has a great assortment of colors, including non-toxic nail polishes. She also does gels, which I'll have to try. Aree is detail oriented, friendly and did a nice job on my nails. read more
