I went to the UPS store today and saw a new nail salon. I have not been happy with the salon I was going to so I made an appointment for a pedicure. I was pleasantly surprised at what a great experience I had. I used to go to another place in Benicia and paid a lot for a gel pedi that was just ok. At Picasso I got a wonderful pedi with hot stone massage, a foot massage, warm wax treatment and a scrub. Also, my toes look gorgeous and I paid half of what I paid at the other salon. Henry is so nice to everyone, offering beverages and making sure every customer is happy with their services. My manicurist name is Kathy and she gives a great foot massage, I almost fell asleep. This is definitely where I will be going from now on. Great place! read more

I had a great experience at this nail salon. The staff was welcoming, the space was clean and relaxing, and my technician paid close attention to detail.

Cindy was really kind and fast! I asked for long square acrylic gel nails and got exactly what I wanted. I have eczema on my finger so she gave me hydrocortisone cream for free. That was really kind of her. The place is really pretty and parking was easy. I will definitely come back again. read more

I came here on a Tuesday with no appointment and they were very attentive and willing to help. I was lucky enough to have Helen do my nails and she was so helpful and sweet. She helped me choose what would be best for my request ( short and natural) and was very nice the whole time. The set I got is beautiful and I get compliments all the time. I can't wait to come back and work with Helen again! read more

Picasso Nail And Spa - Area where I was nicked that caused several days of pain due to the onset of an infection - Nail Salons Near Me - Benicia, California

It was the roughest and most minimal manicure-pedicure I have ever received in 50 years. There was almost NO service other than washing feet and soaking hands. No critical trim, no cleaning under nails, and hardly 5 seconds spent of filling my nails, and the filling took my nails down to the quick. NO care was given. The polish was applied so fast I couldn't tell if anything had been done at all. The man who provided this poor excuse for a service was so rough that I had to pull away many times. Although I asked for gentleness he never changed his delivery. Other than the lovely environment no other favorable reviews can be given! FOR this, I was charged $80 before tip. I will never return to this establishment. read more

I normally don't write reviews, but I'm disappointed with my recent visit. The technician didn't properly smooth and even out the nails from the nail beds, leaving them thick near the base. This can cause them to snag as they grow, and I could also see a dark line around the nail bed because it wasn't cleaned properly. When I mentioned it, the staff member became defensive and kept saying, "How would you know your nails haven't grown yet?" But I can tell -- the product was left thick near the nail bed and that area wasn't properly finished. I've been getting my nails done for 7 years, so I know the difference. I initially let it go, but after paying and leaving a tip, it continued to bother me. I called the salon right afterward, and they didn't answer. That felt very unprofessional. To be fair, the polish application looked nice. The last girl who did my nails did a great job, but this time I'm disappointed read more

Tech was brand new and super nice, but two days later I already have a broken nail. I specifically asked for someone who could do designs, and they are all uneven, see the brush strokes in the gel polish, and the nails themselves are all different thicknesses, with two being super crooked. I wanted to try somewhere closer to home but will not be going back read more

Very Attentive, Love the Remodel looks Clean & Luxury . Ally is Great with French tips , love the new equipment.

We love our small businesses so I hesitate to post but do want to let people know that appointments don't necessarily mean anything at this salon. Today was my second of two set appointments that was not met. Both times were a half hour wait past my appointment time. The first time, I didn't even get the person I scheduled with. Today, they took a walk-in before me. I guess I got the person I was scheduled with but I wish I hadn't. They took me immediately after the run-long appointment and the station was gritty and dirty. The 'clean' towel didn't even feel great. Then, I asked for something really simple, and I'll just say that I'm super sad right now. Not only that, but I was told twice 'you're done' before the paint had barely dried. No hand massage or lotion. I don't even know. Then, expecting maybe a discount for the 30 min wait past my appointment - and apparent rush job - thought I may get a discount, but no. I'm so sorry. I wanted so much to be happy here. But I tried twice and I won't be back. read more

The good: Jimmy of excellent. Very talented. I am amazed how great his art work is. I had one pedicure with Tonya who was amazing. Best pedicure I had in a long time. The bad: I went in the app and no appointments. I called the shop to find out Jimmy was out until 5/5. I called in early April. Left me high and dry. No one notified me that he was leaving, including Jimmy. Was he on vacation? Was he fired? Who knows. I'm a big tipper and regular customer so I was disappointed no one cared to tell me. Every time you bin you pay $20. Even if you reschedule. I had to prove I booked 3 times to get a $60 credit. This was terrible I had a pedicure with one person who was so mean it took months to try again. read more

I decided to stop by Picasso Nails on a whim on 11/20/24, despite their low rating--big mistake. From start to finish, this was one of the worst salon experiences I've ever had. Let's start with the pedicure. I chose their $60 pedicure with an extra $10+ for gel polish, expecting at least a basic level of care. The woman who began my pedicure was incredibly rough, cutting my cuticles carelessly and scraping the side of my foot with the callus remover to the point it was painful. I repeatedly had to ask if the gel curing light was even on because it didn't feel warm, but the tech would just smile without actually answering. Not exactly reassuring. And sure enough, by 11/21/24--less than 24 hours later--there was already a chunk of gel polish missing from the center of both big toes. I hadn't done anything strenuous other than exist and walk for a few minutes here and there. Isn't gel polish supposed to be durable? That's the whole reason for the additional cost! This just proved that the light wasn't on or the curing process wasn't done properly. Then, as if the pedicure wasn't bad enough, another tech started my manicure while I was still in the pedicure chair. A personal pet peeve of mine--I pay for a relaxing service, not some rushed two-in-one chaos. When I asked her to maintain my natural nail shape and to try to fix one broken nail to match the others, she seemed to understand at first. But the entire process was awkward, with her twisting and turning my arm uncomfortably across my chest so I couldn't even see what was happening. Finally, when I got a glimpse of my nails, I was mortified. They were completely butchered--nowhere close to my natural shape. When she asked if I liked them, I said no and reminded her of what I'd requested. She seemed confused but tried to "fix" them, and somehow made them worse. Then she admitted she didn't understand what I wanted in the first place. At that point, I did something I've never done before--I asked her to stop the service entirely. That's when things went from bad to worse. She stood up, threw her towel on the ground, and loudly yelled, "SHE DON'T WANT MANICURE!" for the entire salon to hear. Everyone stared at me, and I was beyond embarrassed. Between the rough, careless pedicure, the uncomfortable and disastrous manicure, the unprofessional behavior, and the fact that their gel polish didn't even last a day, I regret every penny I spent here. I should have trusted the reviews. Don't make the same mistake. Save your money and your dignity--go elsewhere. read more

DO NOT GO HERE!! Went in for a fill, next thing I know they cut off all my acrylics, that I had only had for two weeks (they were a fresh set basically). I asked for coffin shaped, which they could barely pass as so, and all my nails are instead crooked, misshaped, uneven. I got cut my the file on multiple places of my nail as well and acrylic is all over my fingers leaving. I won't be coming back. UPDATE: because of the damage they caused I have to have the acrylics completely removed and have builder gel put on. I seriously do not recommend this place.. definitely not worth $70 either. Part of me is wanting to go in and request a refund but I don't even want to be in that business again. They only care about money and the pictures they have posted are from only ONE artist in the salon. read more

I had such a great experience here! I made an appointment for a mani/pedi on Sunday morning. This was my first time visiting this salon and they did not disappoint! Tons of nail color options, prompt service, and they overall did a really great job! The basic pedicure came with a generous sugar and oil scrub/massage and the manicure also had a wonder hand and arm massage. I would definitely return. read more

I visited this place two times, the first time it was nice and they did a great job on my nails. The second time I asked for a design and the lady who did my nails did a really bad job. The design was really easy and straightforward but it took her almost half an hour to do a simple leaf on two fingers and it didn't even look good or similar to the design I asked for. Don't ask for any design and you will enjoy your visit. Pedicure is relaxing. read more

I go to this place once in a while if I need to. Usually the experience has been okay, nothing to rave and nothing to complain. But this time they did not do a good job at all. I had gel nail done in overseas during my vacation and went to Picasso to get it removed. I just wanted it to be removed and no polish on my fingers and regular polish on my toes. The lady who did my nails didn't completely remove all the gel from some of the nails and I didn't notice it until after I got home. The filing was bad and made my nails brittle. The lady who did my toes didn't file the toes well and a few were not straight. I had to tell her to make it straight as it looked uneven. It was pretty obvious but she seemed to look puzzled and reluctantly made it straight. They were not busy at all with only one customer when I walked in and they were just sitting around. The service was so poor. The smell of acetone was extremely strong when I walked into the place. They turned off the air conditioner. The lady who did the manicure said "later" when I requested to turn on the air conditioner as it was getting very hot. They eventually did after a couple more customers came. They tried to charge me $85 for both when I asked for the price while the manicure was still in progress and she said it $85. I asked her again since it didn't sound right based on the price on the list and then she said it's $65. Won't go back to this place again. If the owner reads this review, my suggestions would be to: 1) train the staff on customer service if you want to attract customers 2) train them to do a professional job 3) sanitize the gel nail remover and buffer block 4) make sure there's air circulation in the salon to get minimize the acetone smell read more
