What a fantastic salon to visit! I just moved here and got my nails done (my first visit) and it was the best experience I've had at a nail salon. Definitely will come back! Update: I get my nails done so rarely that I usually move before I have a chance to come back. But I love this place. Always great to come. Everyone working there is kind and funny. I really enjoy the service and people there! Plus they do a fantastic job and really make sure you are happy with your nails before you leave. read more

I will not be returning to this salon. Bin is completely unprofessional. Backstory: I had taken a hiatus from this salon because the quality of the work was getting worse. Uneven and chunky nails. Not cleaning my cuticles. Splotchy and thick gel that would peel off two days later. So I found someone else to do my manicures and I've been very satisfied with her since. Back in February, however, I had an event coming up and due to scheduling issues with my girl, I decided to come back to Palm Nails; plus there was one specific color they had that I liked and I wanted a picture so I could find it and buy it online. I go to my appointment and the entire time I'm there, Bin won't stop talking. "Mekela, it been whole year. Why you leave me? You cheat on me. Hurt my feelings!" The. Whole. Entire. Time. I was embarrassed and uncomfortable. Fast forward to today. I'm in a bridal party and this was the salon chosen. I walk in and it's the same nonsense from before. He claims I hadn't been in a whole year. It was only four months ago, so if you want to make a claim like that, get your facts straight. I ask for a gel pedicure, sit down and Bin's still going on and on asking why I left. I don't say anything about the quality because I don't want to deter other customers. He eventually comes over to my seat, trying to show me the above yelp review from nearly TWO YEARS AGO, but I show him the picture I took four months ago. I kindly ask him to drop the issue. He then puts his hands on my face and tries to pinch my cheeks like I'm a baby. I have NEVER been touched like that by anyone I'm not friends with. It was insulting and completely out of line. I told him to get his hands off me, that I would be coming back, and to stop talking to me. He, if course, tries to get me engaged in conversation but I ignored him because I was over it. I felt bad for the young man doing my pedicure (who did a good job by the way) because he was clearly trying to make the situation less awkward. But I had had it with Bin being in my face talking about an issue he was clearly misinformed about. He tries to act like your friends. He is anything but. Bin, if you're reading this, learn from your mistakes. You have no concept of personal space and you are too overbearing. If people decide they wanna go elsewhere, don't harass them about it. It happens all the time in business and if you can't handle that, then you shouldn't be running a business. I will not be returning. read more

Palm Nails - My third set from Palm Nails. I forgot to take a picture of my very first set, but that first one was the best manicure I've ever had. - Nail Salons Near Me - La Quinta, California

I came back for a fill & gel pedicure after not coming in a year due to moving further away from the salon & fell in love all over again! I got a fill with Jane and my pedicure with Autumn, they're both EXCEPTIONAL! Autumn remembered me from a year ago! Considering that I was wearing dark black sunglasses and my mask, I was very impressed that she remembered me. She asked how I've been & that she hadn't seen me in a while. She also asked how my sister was doing, which is wild because I used to visit the salon with my sister. Jane is very talented! I showed her the "gradient brown" Pinterest fall inspiration picture for my acrylic nails & she did it perfectly! Despite the fact that it took a lot of time and patience to pick each color, she did it with ease. Autumn was kind enough to test out the colors on her fingernails so we can see the gradient and make sure we liked it. read more

Their nails look just as ugly as their souls They also will refuse to tell you the real total until afterwards I've never met "business owners" so rude in my life. I get you don't like your job but don't take it out on women just trying to get their nails done. The owner was so rude and literally laughed in a customers face and continued to make jokes at her expense when she came in asking to get her nails fixed.. that broke because they have horrible product.. I hope this store gets run into the ground like it deserves read more

BEST. NAIL SALON EVER!! Hands down!!! Jen and Bin give the best customer service ever!

I've been going to Palm Nail Salon for some time now, (2 or 3 years) Jen and Ben as well as there entire "Staff". They are the best... shop is spotless...everyone gets a bottle of water as soon as they arrive... A new procedure they are using "Dip" is wonderful... For first time in years of "Gel", my nails look and feel great (they are breathing) what else can I say...... Be sure you ask for new procedure read more

I went here on vacay with my 3 daughters in Palm Springs and they were able to accommodate us all for manicures & pedicure. I was just looking for a place we could all get it done together but wasn't expecting such amazing work and service! I've been getting my nails done since the 90's snd this was one of the best experiences I've had! And prices were wonderful too. read more

Cindy was quick and got a very painful ingrown toe nail OUT!! I'm not gonna lie, it was very painful but I couldn't get it out myself and Cindy is my new hero!! read more

My favorite place to get my nails done! My bestfriend Nydia is a regular and introduced me to this place a little while back. The owner Bin is so extroverted and welcoming it makes the whole trip an experience! I recently went and got a french tip on my toes and they look perfect! Bin really did a great job on my Deluxe Pedicure! I would recommend this place to anyone but just a heads up it is by appointment only! So make sure to call ahead. read more

They ALWAYS do a great job for me & my friends & are polite & fun! I saw a couple of bad reviews but then looked at the source...I read the other reviews that those people did... one gal had half 1 Stars & half 5 star reviews...Hmmm, doesn't sound like a balanced reviewer to me. Another sounded like a drama queen... Honestly, no one is perfect & but this place is the best I've been to & very consistently so. I'm glad those other reviewers aren't their customers, they deserve nice & fun customers to match their personalities. UPDATE: A new "reviewer" sent me a negative "Compliment" just 30 minutes ago...I guess they were BUTTHURT that their nail salon isn't getting good reviews...I don't know this "reviewer" Kelly K...Apparently he/she is trying to damage the good & well earned Reputation of his/her competitor by posting obvious lies & then badgering their competitor's customers...LAME ALERT! Here's my advice Kelly K: Just Worry about doing the best job you can for your clients and stop worrying about your competition...That's how you lose customers & ruin your business, that negative energy you're spreading will come back to you. I'm sure there's enough Nail Business to spread around...Just do your job & leave the reviews to the REAL Reviewers... #SourceHasBeenConsidered haha Enough about my mini rant on bad reviewers & fake reviewers... Ok, so I just got done having a nice, relaxing pedicure with my hubby... he needed a manicure too... I didn't get the name of the lady taking care of him, but she did a great job! I also really like the green tea lotion she used on his hands... haha. We got into the car & I was wondering where that heavenly scent came from... nice! I don't even have to tell Bin what color I want...He knows what I like. So, today he brought a pink for the bottom color & purple sparkles... I love it! He's very good at what he does... I'm so relaxed now! Zzz hehehe Go get relaxed too! :-) read more

In love with my natural nails I'm so happy Bin recommended I start with a new set of nails being that my old set were so bad, curving down and thick. He recommended Tom do my nails, at first I thought this kid looks like his 18 (which his not lol ) what am I in for but man Tom got down. He was so meticulous, gentle and paid attention to detail. Everyone at Palm nails are so nice, super friendly and Bin remembers your name which makes you feel welcome. If you haven't tried this place you must Thank you read more

I'm writing this review because I feel that I owe it to both myself and future customers of this business. In my second visit to this nail salon, I was advised that I needed a new set which I consented to. My tech took a nail tip and pried every one of my nails off without soaking them in acetone or using a drill to break down the acrylic surface(not my favorite technique either). I was bleeding on several of my nail beds, my natural nails were torn down to the quicks and I was literally writhing in pain and the tech said nothing! I asked her to please soak them, she ignored me. I felt so stuck? Injured. She proceeded to put a full set on and never once acknowledged or apologized for the insane procedure of the removal of my nails. Needless to say, my nails didn't stay on, breaking and lifting within a week and a half, I'm assuming from lack of adherence? Who knows but my fingers pained me for days. My nails were thrashed for three months and it's taken me this long to finally write this review. I've never had nails removed this way, I've had nails put on and off since I was 17, years and years. This cannot be a proper practice of the trade. read more

This is my new nail salon. I live in LA, but found this salon on Yelp when I was visiting the area. The owners, Jen and her husband Bin were great. The salon is new and nicely decorated. The prices were fair and similar to what I've seen in the area, but what sets this place apart from all the others is the amazing customer service. Jen and Bin are so friendly and inviting. They truly want their customers to be happy with their service. They don't do the rushed, over priced manicure and pedicure a lot of other high priced salons are known for. I got what I paid for and more. Jen completed a French gel polish manicure for me, which is no easy task because I'm so picky about my nails. I was impressed that removing the gel polish from my nails was fast and easy. She filed my nails exactly the way I like and my polish was perfect. Bin completed my pedicure and I didn't have to wait for him to finish up with someone else first. I hate when I schedule an appointment and I end up waiting in the middle of my appointment because the salon overbooked and can't finish my appointment because they are working on someone else. That didn't happen here. Once you get your nails done here you won't go anywhere else again. read more

I love love loved my 1st experience at Palm Nail! The location is convenient, roomy and best of all SUPER CLEAN and smelled sanitary. The massage chairs with foot baths are pretty special and Bin and crew are really kind and accommodating to your needs. Bin is an absolute darling character! I had the ever lovely Mimi do my treatment and it certainly felt royal. She has a nice strong grip, good vision (my toes are perfect) and excellent timing! I particularly liked that they were friendly and able to get us straight in - I went with my older daughter who also really enjoyed it! And the have many appointments available future tense. Yay me. They have other services beyond standard fare and the deluxe mani and pedi are my favorite. read more

Aaaaaamazing service provided by Emily and Vanessa. We're from out of town but needed to get pedicures before a family reunion and the service was spectacular. We both got the luxury pedicure and they were worth every penny. I had run 10 miles earlier in the day and my feet were killing me. The pedicure was commendable alone, but the massages were soooooo good. I'm so happy Yelp lead us to this place - wonderful find! read more

I have finally found a nail salon I LOVE! Bean sets the tone the second you walk in the door with a happy greeting and remembers your name! I had an amazing, relaxing pedicure and had 2 of my nails fixed. There is a nail salon on every corner, but I will be driving 30 minutes out of my way from now on to get my mani-pedis at Palm Nails! read more

Nicest nail place i've ever been to! friendly welcoming staff and i got a kind nail tech who answered all my questions patiently, i was given a cold bottle of water while i waited to be seated. The nail salon was clean to begin with, and was even being mopped and cleaned as i was leaving. i got asked how i was doing even as my nails were drying. good quality nails with reasonable prices. I will definitely be back :) read more

Friendly service. Clean and following health and safety guidelines. Foot massages are fantastic here.

Seriously one of the best and cleanest salons I've been to. The customer service is phenomenal! I've never been treated so nicely! The couple who own the place are super sweet and charismatic. They listen clearly to your needs and you're never worried you're not going to get what you asked for. They offered me cold water as soon as I walked in. My only advice is to call and make your appointment ahead of time, they do not have a lot of staff and they might ask you to come back later if you walk in. read more

Very excited I tried a new nail place! My nails are damaged from many many years of acrylics and I wanted to rehab them and get Gel. I met Emily and she gave me her suggestions of the nail dip that rehabilitates nails and has vitamin E and a lot more benefits for someone who's nails are like mine. I'm so glad I trusted her because I love them! I can't wait to go back in a few weeks and see how my nails have improved! read more

I really enjoy coming here to get my gel manicures. Amy is truly great at what she does. She takes her time and pays attention to details when it comes to taking care of my cuticles and she inspects her work. She takes pride in satisfying her customers and making sure they are happy with their results. The place is very clean and usually not that busy. Everyone is very friendly. Paul is always greeting everyone and remembering customers name and making them feel welcome when they walk in. I am very happy to have found a good place to pamper myself once in a while and have good looking nails after. read more

Palm Nails - Fresh gel manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - La Quinta, California

Not in love with my mani, but I did love the pedi and the place. The salon is very nice. The technicians and owners are all delightful. It's busy and everyone was happy. The massage chairs are comfortable and there is television on. It is hard to see in the photos but the design came out really fantastic and I have already had 2 compliments on the color and design. Here are the issues: I asked for squoval shaped acrylic nails so they would be more round than square, but I ended up with a set of wide very square nails. I really should have shown a photo, but he indicated he knew what I wanted. They are also really thick, so not quite natural looking. My thumbs were in pain for the first day which I don't recall ever feeling with my previous acrylic nail applications. Also surprising the technician never gave me an option to wash my hands, so there was a lot of dusty goop under my nails and stuck to the skin that I picked at while I sat for the pedi. I asked the sweet lady who did my toes if I could wash my hands before I leaving as they do have sinks. The cost is typical I think at $50 for the gel polished acrylic nails and $25 for the basic pedicure. I think it's worth trying again with a different nail artist. read more

Well I have come to the conclusion after visiting this salon that the reviews are more for Bihn's personality and less for the actual services. I want to be honest and I have waited over TWO months now for them to get in touch and make things right. Firstly, I chose this salon BECAUSE of the reviews here on Yelp! This is why it is so very important that we are honest in our reviews. I wish there had been more honest and discerning reviews before I went here. So here is my critique & why w/ 5 stars meaning it was top notch: 1. Cleanliness: 3 stars ( will explain exactly why in a moment) 2. Manicure: 2 stars 3. Pedicure: 2 stars 4. Friendliness: Bihn: 5 stars; Everyone else including my Technician 2 stars 5. Sterilization: 1 star 6. Organization: 1 star 7. Prices: 3 stars Came here in December for a mani-pedi and I was paired with a young guy even though I had asked for Bihn in my initial contact. I thought okay I will give it a shot. Bihn was very friendly & asked if I wanted water but then most of the salons give you this. My tech never spoke. In fact he acted like he would like to be anywhere but there. Water into tub for feet. I had a deluxe (callous removing) pedi however my feet were NOT any better than before I went. Hardly removed anything. He was supposed to cut my toenails & when he did the right foot big toe nail was 1/4 inch longer than the left foot. Some nails long & others too short! Definitely needs to be trained. Polish was just okay. So after pedi he has me move to mani table & drops the nail shade ring on top of my foot and it damages the pedi! Those are not light either. Doesn't say a word! Doesn't check pedi at all! Puts my hand in cold water & I ask, aren't you going to file my nails first? Looks at me and starts filing. So time for cuticles & he pulls a cuticle cutter out of DRAWER, not sterile nor does he  get a new set of tools & there are pieces of someone else's cuticle stuck on cuticle cutter! I ask about sterilizing & I get "don't worry"! Huh? Then I get moved to front next to Bihn at drying station. I am upset. Pedi is awful. Mani just okay as missed edges next to skin. Bihn asks "What is wrong?" I show him pedi, length of nails etc... he says he will fix. Comes over & cuts big toenail & other nails but LEAVES edge where he cut! We all know what it looks like when a nail is cut just after a pedi! Takes extra polish & just polishes over smudge! This was dark blue polish! Looks awful. Then when I go to pay they have no change and they are scrambling, talking angrily in Vietnamese to one another! I said hey, I am going. So this rude guy who did my nails received a $15.00 tip because of their disorganization & lack of change! I called a day later to talk to Bihn & he would NOT give me my money back! Says He will give another mani-pedi on the house. I told him I wasn't sure of that because of the tools being used etc... Dead silence! No answer from him! While I was there a party of 4 came in for their appts., & they were told someone forget to put their appt. down so they would have to come back later that day! NO organization, NO sterilization that I could see. The bathroom here is NOT clean. Old dusty piece of furniture in there w/ no knobs etc...so those saying it is very clean are mistaken. Quick wipe out of Pedi basin between Pedis! NOT okay and pushing people in and out of there like cattle! Wasn't relaxing AT ALL. Bihn has his favorites & is very friendly but the services are lacking. Waited two months and NO call from Bihn (left message for him to call me) or Palm nails wanting me as a returning client. Not that I want to after a mediocre mani/pedi! Shame on them. REFUND plz! read more

I have been going there for the last 3 years that I lived in Palm Desert and by far the best service ever!! They take care of you and are super good at what they do. I always get acrylics and they come out flawless every time and exactly what I ask for. read more

So disappointed with my visit today. Mind you I've been here before and last visit I was not satisfied with my dip so I went in the next day to get them fixed. Thought to give them a second chance which i now totally regret. I don't mind waiting as long as when it is finally my turn they take their time and give quality service, mind you I had an appt. My nails were not given any shape, showed a picture and the one nail I wanted different than the others was not even a tad similar. My toes I paid for the deluxe, again was rushed because other were waiting in pedicure chair next to me. Didn't get what I paid for, as well as pointed out to the lady giving my pedicure that I get terrible ingrowns and are still in pain. $105 wasted, don't mind paying as long as I get what I'm paying for. I go get my nails and toes done every month so taking my business elsewhere. read more

My wife went in there to get a Manny Petty, for $50 apiece. Asked me , as a male, what color of nail polish I wanted. I said I would just like to be have a buff, well, sir, that's five dollars more per foot and hands, for a total of $10. I said this is an up sale, stuck my finger in my throat like I'm gag because I don't like to be up sold. I was unhappy at this, the owner after the session came over and talk to me. He actually started raising his voice at me, saying that was not an upsell. Yes it is an up sell. Well, I get a lot of Manny Petty's, I have never been charged for them to take and give it a quick buff. he kept going off, I said, I don't want to talk about it, I just want to leave. He kept going on, raising his voice, I just put down $100 and left. I will not be back. read more

Let me start off by saying I have no idea how this place has so many good reviews. I have NEVER left crying from a nail salon before. First off the second we got in there the lady was rude from the start. I showed her an inspiration photo (because they are my wedding nails) she rushed me the whole time. Literally did 1 coat and left it like that so my nails are streaky. I asked for a little pearl gem on my ring fingers she flat out told me no. So then after all that I go to get my pedicure and the lady immediately starts making fun of my smaller toe nails. Literally doesn't stop mentioning it the whole time doing my feet. So at this point I'm ready to leave I'm about in tears. And my friend who came with me got her nails done as well and her nails are nothing like she wanted and they filed a chunk out of her nail from doing it so much. Then at the end I was charged 105$ for getting made fun of and shitty nails. DO NOT COME HERE! read more

So happy to be able to get a pedicure and my nails done again! Everything is very sanitized and clean. You have to wear a mask, they ask you to wash hands before your nail services, and sign a waiver. They do have plexiglass in between you and the nail artist. Overall I felt very safe and clean. Jane as always does a fabulous job on my nails and autumn is the sweetest and gives really good pedicures! She was even so gentle on my left leg due to a knee surgery I had a couple weeks ago. So happy palm nails is open again!! read more
