    Absolutely LOVEEEE this location. I've gotten my nails done twice, and my girlfriend got a pedicure! Super reasonable prices, the nails STAY on and I am hard on nails. I've never been able to get an actual fill until this set. The ladies are always so nice, and if you go on a weekday you can get right in with no wait. Definitely my new go to place!

    This review is for the waxing service only Do not come here. The job was patchy, rushed, and I was covered in cold wax after. The wax was not at all hot enough, making the process unnecessarily painful. The worst part was how DIRTY it is. (See pictures). My senses told me to leave when I was taken into the filthy back room but sadly I lost my nerve. Then I was charged 25 DOLLARS FOR AN UNDERARM wax????? It should never be more than 12 dollars anywhere. Let alone in a place with such terrible cleanliness. Absolutely horrendous.

    I'm new to the San Diego area and have been looking for a good nail place. The woman who did my beautiful nails was so pleasant to talk to and gave me show recommendations! The nails were gorgeous and so affordable! Love this place!

    I came here for a last minute mani/pedi as it was close open to home. I have to keep my nails short and no fake nails due to work and they revived my natural nails! Sandy did my gel mani and pedi and she was amazing! The color choices are gorgeous too, she was attentive to the color painting & gave me an extended hand massage. The spa pedi was the bees knees...perfect and relaxing. I avidly climb and hike so she saved my feet from the recently adventures The prices are fair for the service. I think I'll be back here again for sure!

    I have been coming to this location since 2003. The location is small but I have NEVER had a bad experience. I am a bit OCD so I worry about proper sterile techniques and I trust this location. I have loved every person who works here and its nice to come back and catch up on life. Now, Im able to bring my daughter with me!

    Scheduled an appointment here, it was my first time and let me tell you the experience was great! Vicky was such a sweet heart! She did mine & my daughters nail & was very patient with my daughter! Definitely recommend & our nails came out super cute!

    Loved this location! They were super friendly... They have an awesome selection of nail color powder, gel, and regular nail polish. It looks brand new and the quality seems amazing so far. I got a full set with color powder and a regular pedicure with callous removal. The pictures say it all! They are so cute and I love the color. The nails looks sharp and I think it was great execution. They aren't super thick and they go right up to the cuticle. The pedicure was basic but great for the price! It was 18 + 5 for the callous removal and I would've paid 30 for the quality. I don't know how long I can add how impressed I am with this nail salon. I always get nervous going somewhere for the first time but they have made a regular out of me. And I live right around the corner! If you were looking for a sign to try this place here it is.

    After 2 weeks!

    Pictured gel manicure is over 2 weeks old! I swam, wash my hands constantly and use alcohol gel 20 times a day. This manicure won't quit! What witchcraft is this? Vicky was great to take me as a walk in on a late Sunday afternoon when my usual place was too busy. I think I'm a convert now! One little chip on my dominant pointer finger but even then it's not peeling off. My only complaint was that the A/C wasn't running on a hot summer day, but I survived.

    I got acrylics and the shape of them is extremely wide despite my asking for narrow. They originally did a white color which I did not like and asked for them to change it. She left so much white on my nails that I can still see it. They did not do ANYTHING at all to my cuticles ?? Like untouched. Over all super disappointed.

    Finding a nail salon has always been a problem for me because my cuticles grow out very fast and every time anybody has tried to cut them, they never get all the cuticles trimmed and they end up growing out faster than normal. For anybody that has issues with their cuticles and can never get them trimmed properly or are left unsatisfied with how they look after a manicure, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND coming to Lynn. I have been seeing Lynn since high school (close to 8 years now) and I have never had someone trim my cuticles as amazing as she does. In addition, she is extremely sweet, humble, and takes her time when working on your nails and makes sure you are 100% satisfied with how your nails look. Her work is consistent, and when I go somewhere else for convenience or a quick fix, I instantly regret not waiting for Lynn to fix my nails for me. Amazing prices, amazing service, wonderful employees, and beautiful looking nails, you can't get any better than that!

    Vicki is truly the most thorough, professional, personable, talented nail artist I have ever experienced. Every single set I've gotten with her has not only met my high standards, but exceeded them- she is a perfectionist just as I am! Whenever I come in with a vision of what I want, she's always willing to work with me until that vision is met. Shoutout Vicki, you're a real one! Highly highly hiiighly recommend her services.

Parked on the street (no meters-yay!) but once inside realized there's also parking in the back so parking shouldn't be a struggle for future appts. I took advice of others & called ahead to make an appt. It was $50 for the whole set of acrylics & when asked how much additional for nail art I was informed the cost is a flat fee; ANY art I wanted would be included.Tranie herself did my nails & she was friendly, fun & patient while I went searching for Christmas designs. I'm SO happy with how they turned out! Asking how much fills are, I was told $40 (which to my cheaper side seemed highbut rationalizing they will do any art on any, or all of your nails, is super reasonable.) I will be back!

I couldn't relax because I had two people doing my feet and hands at the same time. Then when I asked how much 65.00 I WAS LITERALLY IN SHOCK! I didn't say anything just payed it. I couldn't leave a tip because that would be pushing it. The people were very friendly. But way too much! Then I had to sit with my feet under the lights to dry. Usually the pedicure is done first than your manicure so by the time your nails are done so are your feet. And not being able to enjoy the experience of being able to just sit without crossing my arms over for the manicure.

Typically, my mani and pedi are done simultaneously by two different ladies. However, I noticed that only one lady was working on me while 4 others just paced around and chatted with each other. At first I thought they might have other clients with appointments coming in soon, but nearly an hour passed and they were still not attending other customers. What could have been a 40 minute visit took twice as long. $65 also felt excessive for regular polish, I've gotten gel polish for that amount at other salons. Customer service was also meh - she seemed annoyed when I asked to swap out the color after testing it on one nail and didn't recommend any additional services like at other salons. What was even more frustrating was that by the evening three of my nails were already chipped! Will not be returning, don't recommend!
