First time going here (moved from socal) and she did not disappoint! She took the time to take off the horribly applied nail polish from the last nail place I went to and restored my nails and then took her time applying the new gel polish! I don't think I've ever had them look as good as they do right now! She's also a super sweet and the place was very nice and welcoming! Highly recommend :) read more

Kim was kind, I will give her that. She sent me out with a cloth bag as a gift. She was fast, a little too fast. She got me in right away (should've been a clue) Second clue most of these five star reviews are older than 3 years. I only wanted a basic manicure and nailed painted, my nails not fake ones. She trimmed my cuticles a little too much and a couple of them bled very slightly but still. I also had a sore one I asked her not to trim. She did anyway. Next she got out a dremmel to "rough up" the surface of my nails, my actual nails not acrylics or gel nails (never had either of those). I've never ever had that rough filing done to the surface of my nails. When I asked she said it's fine. That's when I should've left but I didn't. I'm a little shy about doing that in the middle of a treatment. Anyway, I will say the polish lasted longer 4 days) than usual on my nails but I now have grooves/dents in them 2 months later. Hopefully they will grow out soon. I don't like doing negative reviews but if it prevents someone else from a bad experience I thought it was worth it. There are.t least a couple other negative ones but when something looks too good to be true it probably is. I'm not very good at just advocating and read more

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND NAILS BY KIM Kim was very responsive (no phone tag like at other places), and accommodating. I called at 11:30am for an appointment and she offered me a 1:00pm spot on the same day - a welcomed surprise! She was on time - I did not have to wait for her (as I often do at another local salon even with an appointment) - very much appreciated! She did a fantastic job - was professional, polite, conversational, and is a highly skilled nail technican! I will be getting all nail services performed by Kim now! Thank you, Kim!!! read more

Kim is THAT GIRL!!! she was so so SO sweet and so fast!!! i've never gotten my nails done by someone so gentle, i usually leave in literal tears because no one knows how to clean up a cuticle these days but KIM?!? a professional, the most enjoyable manicure i've ever had in my life!! she was so nice and funny and got me and my bestie in sooo last minute, she's too good!! the salon was also so clean and so calm, jessica at the front desk was so helpful and friendly!! we WILL be back!! read more

Definitely not a place to bring your 6yo daughter to have a mani/pedi at. I tried to schedule a 5pm appointment with Kim for my mani/pedi and my daughters as i was attending a wedding the following day. She gave me a 4pm instead so i had to bring along my two boys and infant daughter. Immediately she told me that the kids could not be inside the establishment because of it was a "spa" and people were there to relax and not hear kids. Okay understanding; so we stood outside. She offered gel nails for my 6yo daughter because they "last longer" which i turned down and she seemed to be slightly irritated about. I explained to her that the previous time she had bit her nail color off and we were there for regular nail cleaning and color. I was just there to give my daughter back he "experience" She finished 15min early with my daughter and my husband was still about 30min away from hollister. So I then offered to have her start with my toe nails while we waited but she declined to start services. She said she had no problem waiting but once again kicked me out of the building to stand outside & wait. She then decided to stand with us outside and it was obvious that she wanted me to pay her for my daughter's services which I immediately did. This then made me feel very uneasy and I decided to leave without having my services done. I was not going to write this review as i felt like it was primarily my fault for bringing my kids along but now after hearing my daughter say that the lady was rude to her the entire time. Her services were paid for in cash and a tip was provided. So please don't take young girls to this business. read more

Kim was great! She got me in last minute for a same day appointment. The location in Paradiso Spa & Salon is very clean, organized and relaxing because it's just her. She was patient with me and my indecisiveness on what Halloween nail design I should choose. She ended up free handing my design and they came out great!!! I love them! I definitely recommend her read more

I have no words... The picture can speak for itself. Being my daughter was getting her nails done for prom I had to take her to Fancy nails to get them fixed, which was another $35 on top of the $105 we spent for a new set and a basic pedicure. I was extremely surprised being this is a 5 star rated place. I'm just going to go with maybe the nail tech was having an off day, but these are not 5 star nails. read more

First timer! Leaving a 5/5 review for Kim 1) Kim was available on a Friday (9AM) 2) Finished my gel manicure and regular pedicure in an hour and 15 mins. 3) Kim REALLY took her time and left my poor toes looking gorgeous! 4) She didn't push anything on me, just asked what I wanted and offered if I was interested in her lotion however not at all pushy. 5) She's super friendly and easy to talk too! 6) It's very clean and spacious for the one-on-one location. I haven't done my nails since COVID and some time before that so she really made my experience top-tier. I will definitely be returning and becoming a loyal customer and bringing my mom and aunties next! Thank you again so much Kim! read more

Very disappointed. Brought my 11 year old there for her birthday. Suddenly, the kids offers are only until 8 years of age (that wasnt the case last year when I brought my then 10 and 11 year old there). She wanted to push my daughter into getting gel nails. Cannot recommend any more. read more

I've never had a professional manicure before. I spent 3 days looking for a local nail technician. I called today and she got me in today. I have long natural nails and I have a reaction to nail polish containing formaldehyde and tourmaline. I have always brought my own base coat for pedicures. Kim understood I didn't want to cut my nails down or shape them other than the shape I came in with. She cleaned them up a bit and made them look uniform. I will go to her again. The service she provided was efficient, what I asked for and reasonably priced. read more

Kim does excellent work. She takes her time, offers luxurious pedicure packages and is incredibly thorough. My gel manicure lasted nearly 5 weeks! My pedicure (regular polish) lasted that long as well. So clearly I returned and I couldn't be happier with my perfect nails! read more

Today I had an appt with Kim for a gel manicure - I like that she is by appt only because I only have an hour for my lunch and our apt started on time- not like at the salon where you have an appt and you still have to wait. Anyways she was very friendly and highly skilled - my nails look great! I will be coming back again ! Thanks Kim! read more

I've tried all the nail salons in Hollister and Kim is by far the best I've been to. She takes great care in cleaning up my nails, which you don't find in other nail salons. The best part is that my gel mani is never a big blob sitting on top of my finger nail! She always leaves them looking natural. I also like that she doesn't shove other unnecessary services on you. She has a corner section behind a hair salon, and it is very clean. She even helped my elderly mother to our car the last time I picked her up after her appointment. Overall great service, and I will continue going to her. read more

I am so happy to have found Kim! I went in for a manicure and pedicure just yesterday and am very pleased with the service and quality. The establishment is a one-person operation so it's nice to be the only focus and not be ushered around a busy salon. I was able to get an appointment same day, and when I showed up she was finishing with her previous client perfectly on schedule so I didn't have to wait. Excited to visit again in two weeks! read more

I saw Kim several years ago at a different location before the pandemic. I located her again through a friend that uses her. She was quick to respond to my call and I was in the next day! Love this location and that she has her own private room. It's one on one service. Service was a pedi. Basic pedicures are 40.00. She did a great job and I was happy with my experience. read more

Very good pedicure. Kim is very good with booking appointments. I'm satisfied and will come back again. Thank you

I moved to Hollister about 1.5 years ago and hadn't been able to find a nail salon with good reviews here in town. They all have 3 stars or less. Had been driving to my salon back in Prunedale but it's time consuming. Finally, I found Kim here on yelp and scheduled my first appt. I scheduled for both manicure and pedicure. Kim was very nice and welcoming. I liked that it's just her there and there's no additional staff or clients. Very attentive to cuticles and very detailed with her work. Extra fees were a little on the pricier end, paying an extra 20 for each manicure and pedicure to upgrade to gel. An extra 15 for both for the french tip. 105 total for both. Overall, it was worth it. You can pay less elsewhere and compromise quality of work. Or you can book with Kim and rest assured you'll be happy with what you get. I will for sure keep booking with Kim. read more

Since moving to Hollister I've had trouble finding a good Nail Salon...I kept getting them done in San Jose. But, so glad I found Kim. She is sweet and personable. Takes her time with her services. Actually puts the care into the massages with mani and pedis too. I'm super picky with my nail shape and such esp when you get French manicures and Kim always does such a great job. Clean, smooth, even...and even if I was a little picky she would fix it / file it just the way I wanted. Def the only one I'll go to in town for my manicures and pedicures. Thank you Kim. read more

She was friendly and kind but most of all she did a great job. She listens well. Thank you Kim!

Love my latest pedicure! These are now a week old but one of my favorites! Told him what I wanted and she chose the perfect color pink. I'm considering sticking to this for a little while and getting a matching manicure. read more

Kim is a truly skilled professional. Her shop has one chair and one nail station, very clean. With COVID, felt extra safe since you are the only customer there...one on one. Kim's work was very, very, good. No nicks or cuts...she took her time. You don't get that rushed feeling you get from other nail places since they have ppl waiting for the chair you're sitting in. I highly recommend getting your nails done at Kim's. I will def be returning when I am in the Hollister area. read more

Ruff with my toes, using nail file with sharp edge. Painful cleaning under big toes nail. Will find someone else.

I moved here from the Bay Area and have struggled to find a clean, FRIENDLY, not pushy and detailed nail tech. Kim is very welcoming, friendly and listens to your requests. I am very picky and she has been the only one in town that has met my needs. I have visited most, if not all other nail locations in town and none compare. Other locations are older, dirty, unsanitary and are not very friendly. I had to go to gilroy for the longest time to get a proper manicure/pedicure prior to Kim. I also LOVE the one on one appointment only visits as you don't feel like your time is being rushed or having others stare at you while you get your nails/toes done. Highly recommend Kim! You will not be disappointed. Oh also, her location is in the same parking lot of hazels thrift shop. read more
