I loved my experience here! I got a pedicure with callous removal and had the most relaxing time. When I walked in, I was offered tea which was very nice especially since it was a cold SF evening. The foot bath water had lemon, mint and rose petals in it which made it feel luxurious. The owner was incredibly nice and personable. She did a fantastic job on my pedicure, making my feet soft and smooth. I will definitely be going back! read more

I didn't have an appointment so I just called to do a walk in. They said to give them 30 minutes and they'll be able to take me, which was perfect cause I was walking anyways and it will take me 17 minutes and I would just wait. I did a pedicure and was going to just clean up my cuticles for my hands, but i ended up doing gel for both mani and pedi. I was crushed on time and needed to leave since I had something at 7pm, I only came in to kill some time. And they were able to rush and do such a good job. Even though I stopped the lady to put nail polish on my toes, my feet are nice and clean for myself to put my own nail polish on. It is a daughter and mother shop which I fully support. They were so nice as well and the daughter gave me care tips for my cuticles and foot, since I lack with that and it shows. She also put sunscreen on my hands for the UV light and covered the UV light with a towel which I thought was very thoughtful and nobody else does that, so I was surprised. It's the little things that gets me ! read more

After trying a few in the area, this is my official new go to spot for nails. They do regular or gel (no dip) but it's a mother daughter pair who have been here for about 6 years and still doing an amazing job. It's a small but comfortable area and they are just the sweetest. I've been very happy with how my gel manicures come out and they last me at least 3-4 weeks. The prices are also reasonable for the area with a great deal if you do mani pedi together. read more

I give my nails a break from regular nail polishes and Wah gives me a nice natural clean manicure. She is genuine and sweet. I like that she's not pushy at all to get my nails done with polish because she respects and understands what the client wants. I did have my toes french tipped and she did a tidy tip look! Definitely coming back for her services. She also puts lemon, orange and mint in the water which not only smells good but actually helps clean the nails of chemicals from polishes. read more

Please support small businesses! Thanh was very thorough in prepping my nails and made sure the water was warm and added citrus and mint to make the water smell good. After doing the manicure and pedicure she will do a brief massage on each leg and hand. Then she will wrap them in a hot towel to loosen your muscles. She also takes extra care of your skin by putting sunscreen on your hands to protect you from the UV lights for the gel. Very nice and small shop that is quiet.

Hoa and Van were so sweet and careful when doing my nails. Unfortunately my nails had been filed down too much by previous nail salons. They took their time when removing my gel polish and were so detail oriented. I appreciated that they weren't in a rush to get the job done and wanted to make sure I liked the results. They also placed sunscreen and a towel over my hands when applying the gel polish which I thought was very special. Got a gel mani pedi and the prices were also very reasonable. Will definitely be back. read more

Very kind and skilled mom/daughter team runs this salon. I always appreciate how clean and meticulous everything is. Love all the manicures, pedicures, waxings, etc I have gotten from them over the years. So I haven't gotten a mani/pedi in months due to the lockdown, so felt super luxurious today to get them. Also, the hand and foot massage felt so good. Thank you for taking care of me. Safety precautions are all in place, hand sanitizer, face mask, each station is cleaned and sanitized after use, all the bottles of colors touched are wiped down and sanitized. They have an air filter running and open door for fresh air. They also space out stations so you and another customer are not sitting right next to each other. Please make sure to call for appointment as they schedule everyone for maximum comfort and safety. They are closed on Tuesdays. read more

After trying several places in the city, my search for a nail salon/ nail tech is over!! Yesterday was my first time here, and I will for sure be coming back. Hoa is the friendliest nail tech i've met. She definitely cares about her work and pays great attention to detail! If i can rate more than 5 stars, i would. one of nails chipped before i arrived at the salon, but she fixed it by adding a tip, and made it look super natural! This is the first salon that actually put sunscreen on my hands to protect from the UV light--something so simple yet I've never thought about. As for my nails, I asked for matte black gel with gold tips. A part of me wishes i kept them shiny, but I wanted to try matte. It still came out cute, but i probably wouldn't get matte again because it does have a bit of a weird "residue"-looking coat, but again I still love my nails!! I do want to emphasize that this has NOTHING to do with the quality of the service (because the service was AMAZING!!) This was my choice and just an observation, that hopefully helps others out. Im beyond happy with my experience here! Thank you Hoa!!! read more

There are so many nail salons to choose from in this area so I'm glad I can finally say pearly nails will be my go-to moving forward. She let me take my time choosing the color and sampling them while also making great suggestions. I appreciate that Hoa took her time and made sure I felt relaxed and happy with the results. The prices are probably the most affordable I've seen in a while and I'm happy to support a business with kind hearted people like herself. read more

Pearly Nails is a hidden gem tucked away on the corner of Pacific and Van Ness! It is run solely by the owners of the business, a mom and daughter. They are incredibly skilled and take their time when you step into their salon. On top of this, they are genuine and nice at the same time! Typically, I have horrible hangnails and am constantly picking at them. After one visit to Pearly to get my first ever manicure, my hangnails are almost non-existent! My girlfriend was incredibly impressed as well - they ended up fixing one of her broken nails with ease! Their services are moderately priced, but for the quality you get, it is an absolute steal. Make sure to call ahead to make an appointment! read more

Run by a mother/daughter duo Pearly is a clean and reliable experience. Their massage chairs are amazing too. I love their personal touch with the herbs and lemon slices they put into your foot bath. I've never had an infection by them which is lovely bc they always have to deal with my ingrowns. Since they're a two person establishment I recommend calling in advance for appointments during peak hours! Prices are very reasonable as well. My only request is that the foot & hand massage go a little longer but I could be spoiled by my gal in DC read more

This is my go-to salon. I love near it but the main reason I love it is because of Wah and Van. They are a mother daughter duo and they are as sweet as can be. They do a great job, they are very attentive and accommodating They take walk-ins and also make reservations. They often times always have a customer so I would call ahead and make sure you can get in. They do regular mani, pedis and also gel. They do not do acrylics. They are reasonably priced, a gel mani and regular pedi is $48 (I'm pretty sure!) They also offer waxing services- I've gotten my armpits waxed here before. The station is clean and Wah does a good job. When you become a regular, you feel like you're part of the family but they are just as kind to newbies.

They took their time shaping and perfecting my nails, and the final result honestly exceeded my expectations. The polish application was flawless, and you can tell they use high-quality products. I also appreciated how hygienic everything was. Tools were properly sanitized, and the overall cleanliness of the space made the experience even more enjoyable and stress-free. It's clear that they prioritize both customer satisfaction and safety. On top of that, the atmosphere is so calming it's the perfect place to unwind and treat yourself. I never felt rushed, and the staff checked in throughout to make sure I was happy with everything. Overall, Sydney Nail Spa delivers not just great nails but a truly relaxing and professional experience. I'll definitely be coming back and recommending this place to friends and family. If you're looking for a nail salon that combines skill, cleanliness, and excellent customer service, this is it!

It's small, they don't have the best equipment but they sure do the best job, this is now my go to place for a pedicure. They take their time and carefully do everything. I also love that the salon is always so quiet and empty, it's so peaceful! The women working there are also some of the nicest, I saw them make an iced coffee for one of their regulars. I wish to be that level of a regular.

She's backed by a great team led by her pooch Bambi, and including Ted, Timmy, and Holly. I come in for biweekly mani-pedi. But mostly I come here for the kindness and professionalism, and soothing environment, that Triss and her team so amply provide. Men have nails, too, and deserve the kind of thoughtful care that is provided at Elegant Nails.

I would give ZERO stars if I could. This was the absolute worst nail experience I've had in my life…read moreand I've gotten my nails done consistently for years. First of all, Trish soaked my dip nails in acetone for over 45 minutes, leaving them in a tremendous amount of pain. When she actually did do my nails, she cut my cuticles until they bled and every nail came out crooked. I came back to tell her I was beyond unsatisfied with my nail shape and she proceeded to tell me that I said it was okay the night before. She took no accountability and was extremely rude. Overall TERRIBLE service and TERRIBLE nail technique. I got charged $70 for the absolute worst possible manicure. Save your money and your nails and go somewhere else.
