    Marble design and acrylic fill by Tony
    Bridget C.

    I've been coming here for a little bit now for my guy Tony 10/10 on the nails. I tried the pedicure package and loved it- chairs were so comfortable and the service was exactly what I needed. They're a new salon so give them a shot!

    The work done

    I went to this salon with a clear inspiration photo and communicated politely throughout the process. While I understood the nails would not be an exact copy, the final result looked significantly different from the reference in terms of detail and overall execution. When I reached out respectfully to explain my concerns and asked if the detailing could be adjusted, the response from management was dismissive rather than solution-oriented. Instead of acknowledging the specific issues I pointed out, I was repeatedly told that artists are different and that I needed to be "more open minded." At no point was there an effort to understand my concerns or offer a meaningful resolution. I was not expecting perfection or an identical recreation. I simply expected professionalism, constructive communication, and willingness to address reasonable concerns from a paying customer. Unfortunately, the interaction left me feeling unheard and uncomfortable returning.

    10/10! I would absolutely recommend Polish Parlor and any of the talented nail techs who work there. The vibe is clean, sophisticated and modern with huge comfy pedicure chairs and a selection of drinks are available. I was also impressed with their large selection of colors for gel, cat's eye, jelly, dip etc. I've been getting my nails done by Tony for over 3 years and he always exceeds my expectations. I've shown him so many difficult designs and he's able to execute them flawlessly, often times better than the inspo pic! Tony's skill level drives me to be more creative with my nails and the designs I choose. His application process is also top notch. I'm VERY hard on my nails, and I like them on the longer side and I never worry about them breaking or chipping. Prior to meeting Tony I never used to get my nails done regularly but he's kept me coming back!

    1st time going here and Tony did his thing! I have not had long nails in years and I'm very happy with this set. Tony was professional and executed what I wanted in a timely manner.

    Full-set

    Dee provided wonderful customer service. She has always been friendly, welcoming, and helpful. She goes above and beyond each visit, very hospitable. She will have you leaving like you left a Michelin's experience of nail services. Her kindness is much appreciated and always look forward to the next visit. Happy to come back to continue to support her and my amazing nail tech James who always does phenomenal work, I'm very grateful for. Wishing continued success for you both.

    I visited two weeks ago as my favorite Tech, Tony (who use to be at Eco Nail Salon) had moved locations. I was happy to see that Polish Parlor was a large, clean space and very beautifully designed. The ambience is relaxing and music on point! The chairs are amazing and you can bring your laptop to work while on the chair as they have a table attachment for it. The seats are a good size, can be heated, has multiple massage settings and super comfortable. Especially, when you want R&R. There are two bathrooms and private suites for waxing and other services that privacy makes sense for. I didn't use them but I believe there is intent to expand services for facials and other purposes. I was also so surprised to learn that they carried Jelly polish and an array of cat eye polish too! (Cat eye is a polish that contains super fine magnetic particles, that when you hover a magnet over it, the particles respond to create shapes. When done properly, you get the effects of what looks like a cat's eye! It's beautiful!) Tony has done my nails since 2021! This means Tony has consistently made my nails look so good each and every time I wanted a full set. I trust his judgement to shape and create my nails - I have learned to shush myself when he works. Lol! I met the owner, Dee, and she's so well versed in the nail world that she will absolutely aim to please and explain nail services to you. I love being able to learn about how they take care of your nail health and share with you how to discuss what you would like done. Communication is key so you are happy with your nails and experience. Dee also makes sure that if there is a special polish you'd like - she'll make sure to have it. It's so great when a salon has all the polishes and tools to make your nail dreams, real! (Most salons carry only the bare minimum- which saddens me bc I want to try new nail styles but can't because the item is not available to create it). I'm happy that I followed Tony along to Polish Parlor. Looking forward to more visits here with Tony!

    Love my new nails! Dee does such a good job

    We were in Sacramento for the day shopping for snowboarding gear and making a trip to the Apple…read moreStore, and since we had some extra time, I searched for a nail salon that could squeeze me in for a regular manicure and pedicure. I'm so glad I found Blush Nail & Beauty Bar! First of all, this place is BEAUTIFUL. The salon is spacious, bright, clean and relaxing, and the pedicure chairs are gorgeous and incredibly comfortable. The music was also SO GOOD! They were playing what sounded like 2000s R&B, and it honestly added so much to the whole relaxing atmosphere. I also really appreciated that they had a good selection of regular nail polish. I don't get gel, and not once did anyone question my choice or try to pressure me into upgrading to gel. That alone was refreshing. The original color I picked was very sheer, and I asked if they could put white underneath it. They explained that doing that could make it look streaky and recommended choosing another color instead. I didn't end up with the exact color I originally wanted, but I appreciated them explaining why rather than doing something they didn't think would turn out well. I still really like the soft color I ended up with. I chose their least expensive manicure and pedicure package, and I was honestly surprised by how much was included. The pedicure was wonderful -- probably the best foot massage I've ever had. It was so relaxing I was practically falling asleep! It even included paraffin wax. My manicure technician was wonderful too. She gave a great massage and was very gentle and patient with my cuticles. I can get nervous when my cuticles are pushed back and trimmed, and I felt completely comfortable here. Everyone I interacted with was pleasant, patient and welcoming. They also offer complimentary mimosas, wine and beer. I chose an ice water, and even that was delicious and refreshing. Overall, this was such a nice unexpected find during our Sacramento day. Beautiful salon, comfortable chairs, amazing music, great massages, friendly staff, regular polish without the gel pressure, and a genuinely relaxing experience. I would absolutely come here again the next time I'm in Sacramento

    This was my second visit to Blush, and unfortunately, the experience was very different from my…read morefirst. I scheduled a visit a few days in advance for three people and four services and paid an $80 deposit ($20 per service) via Venmo. One person canceled that morning, but I was able to switch to a different service for myself that same day vs. losing my deposit. The two pedicures were fine. They were basic pedicures, and aside from the water initially being extremely hot, I was happy with the results. Because of the deposit, there was also no wait time. The head spa, however, was a completely different experience. This was my first head spa, so I was excited and expected it to be relaxing. Unfortunately, it was anything but. The massage was brief, and despite the menu stating that oils would be used, none were applied. During the double cleanse, the technician used her fingernails rather than her fingertips, which became painful. There was also an excessive amount of cleanser, and rinsing it out was difficult. The water temperature was extremely inconsistent--going from hot to ice cold--and water got into my ear. Instead of feeling relaxed, I was uncomfortable throughout the service. Afterward, my hair was not completely dry. When I asked for serum, I was told it had already been applied, and I had to explain that I wanted my hair fully dried and soft. Another staff member eventually finished drying it, and the end result was much better. The two services totaled $138, or $158 with a 15% tip. I shared all of this feedback with the front desk before leaving. They were receptive and said they would provide additional training. I was also told that the technician was new to the salon and has some communication issues. I appreciate that they listened to my concerns, but based on my head-spa experience, I would not return for that service. *********************************************************** FINAL THOUGHTS Making a reservation requires a deposit, but it does give you priority if there's a wait. PRO TIP: I visited on a Saturday around noon, and it wasn't busy at all. If you're coming in solo, you can probably skip the reservation and deposit. I've had two pedicures here, and the service was totally fine. No issues at all. I also clearly saw the technicians using Barbicide to disinfect their metal tools, although I didn't pay attention to where they pulled the drill bits from. Overall, the salon is CLEAN, which I really appreciate. Personally, I wouldn't get a head spa treatment here again. I was told they're having plumbing issues because the building is old and that their plumber hasn't been able to resolve the problem. However, based on my experience, I feel some of the issues were related to the technician and not just the plumbing. That said, I'd love to hear from others who have had a head spa here. How was your experience with the water temperature? Did you have a better experience with a different technician? I'd genuinely be curious to know!

I reached out through Yelp (in desperate panic mode), and they replied fast, explained what I needed, and were super helpful before I even walked in. The place is bright, clean, and has the kind of chill energy that makes you feel like you've been going there for years. Grace took care of my nail and was so gentle.. I was in pain, but she handled it like a pro. She even recommended a nail builder to keep my nails strong, which I didn't know I needed but now swear by. Duyen was sweet and made sure my daughter and I had drinks like we were at a spa. Sophia was working nearby and still had such a kind energy. And Phil? Phil is the unofficial house comedian.

I just came back today and got a fill - specifically requested for no polish because I have my family member doing it for my wedding reception this weekend. Somehow the fill was still $50 when I used to get full sets with designs starting at $50. When I asked for clarification I just got told "yeah that's right." I also got a pedicure but I wasn't asked what type, just assumed it was the basic one. Yes it was very nice she did great, I also got french tips. But found out that was $62 and again when asking just got told "yeah that's right." Just a bit frustrating when it doesn't seem like the service was extra or "luxury" per se. Yes I understand it's been awhile as well and inflation is a very real thing. I was excited to come back and Andy was sweet and did a great job. I just can't understand the pricing when at other places it's $40 for a pedicure and $35/40 for fills for the same services. There's no pricing online so maybe that's my fault for not asking ahead of time. Definitely feels like a bit of a rip off and I don't think I'll be back anymore unfortunately.

We arrived at around 2 pm, it got a little busier after I had to come back to get my nails fixed. The staff was very kind and we had some nice conversations. Environment was spacious and there was no wait time. Amy did gel nails for my friend and Henry did her gel pedicure. She was happy with the results and they did a great job! Speed and quality gets thumbs up for them. My experience was entirely different. Vy did my gel manicure and I asked if she could sand down my vertical ridges on my nails. She said there's nothing I can do but the gel would cover it anyways. Interesting... because that wasn't my experience with other nail techs. I noticed she applied a few coats but the edges were noticeably messy. When she started applying lotion to my hands, I realized she was finished but the results were unacceptable. I showed my friend sitting next to me and she didn't have the guts to tell me until we left. Vy noticed I wasn't happy after I asked her to take a look at the edge of my nails. There was so many areas of missing paint and she began using the drill to sand down the top coat. After that she tried to fix it by repainting another coat over it. I felt terrible even bringing it up so I kept apologizing and thanking her for the extra work. However, her response was a bit concerning: she said, "It's okay, I probably couldn't see." All of my nails? That definitely made me wonder why I would ever come back here. By the time my nails were done with Vy, my friend's gel pedicure and gel manicure were complete. It took about an hour for both of us. After we leave, I see my nails in broad daylight and it magnifies the flaws even more. I sent a photo to my step-sister who owns a nail salon and she told me to go back and have them fixed because it looked terrible. I called them back and Annie picked up the phone. Annie said I could text the photo to them and told me they'd fix it. I come back 30 minutes later and get another nail tech by the name of Andy. Andy looked my nails and had no words, he just apologized. He seated me right away and said they'd do another color for me no problem. At this point I didn't want gel because I didn't want to ever have to come back to this salon again. I was mortified. I asked them to remove the gel and just give me a clear coat but they insisted gel - I had to tell them 3 times I didn't want it. I told him it was my first time here but the difference with Andy was: he delivered high quality work and had a great attitude to be resolving my issues. 10 years of experience and I felt like he actually cared. The ridges on my nails I mentioned to Vy were addressed immediately without me even having to ask. Andy used the drill and sanded it down and also filed my nails. All of these little steps were missed the first time. My family owns a couple of nail salons in the east coast. I can't believe I had to text them these photos. The worst part was I felt ashamed for even having to call the store to complain and come back. Despite my first results, they handled the problem with grace and the customer service of Annie and Andy was appreciated. I basically paid for gel manicure plus tip to get my gel polish removed. There was no way I'd be seen in public like that. Thank you for actually caring about the satisfaction of your customers. Not all nail techs deliver the same quality!

I was honestly really hesitant about trying someone new because I'm extremely particular about my nail shape and have been going to the same nail tech in LA for years. My sister recommended Tracy, and I couldn't be happier that I trusted her. Tracy absolutely nailed it! The shape, length, and design were PERFECT. She paid so much attention to detail and gave me exactly what I wanted. If you're looking for someone who is talented, meticulous, and truly cares about her work, I HIGHLY recommend Tracy.

I have been a loyal client for over a year, consistently spending over $100 per visit, and I have always come in respectfully, communicated clearly, and expected the level of service that matches the price I pay. Today, a nail tech abruptly took over my service and immediately told me I "should go somewhere else" because I'm "never satisfied." I have never raised my voice, insulted anyone, or behaved disrespectfully. I simply expect quality for the price I pay. She went as far as saying the staff "gets scared" when I come in, which is not only unprofessional but completely false. Throughout the past year, I've also noticed that the staff frequently speaks in their language while looking directly at me or other clients, creating an uncomfortable environment where customers feel talked about instead of respected. This has happened every single time I've visited. To make matters worse, shortly before my service was finished, I overheard another woman complaining about her nail tech as well, proving I'm not the only customer experiencing issues. When I requested a small discount due to the disrespect I received, the salon refused. No apology, no accountability, and no professionalism. After a year of loyalty and hundreds of dollars spent, this is how I was treated. I will not be returning, and I hope management seriously reevaluates how staff communicates with customers and handles feedback.

Since I was a walk-in and wanted to get my nails done, I agreed to add gel as well. The only positive thing I can say is that the manicure tools came in a sealed, sterilized package. Unfortunately, the rest of my experience was very disappointing. The towel on the table was clearly not clean or fresh. I expected a clean towel for every customer, not one that appeared to have already been used for someone else. I had removed my acrylic nails a few months ago and had not had a manicure in a long time, so my cuticles were hard. Instead of using a cuticle softener or allowing my hands to soak long enough to soften them, she forcefully pulled at my cuticles. It was painful and very uncomfortable. Her customer service was very poor. She handled my hands very roughly, almost tossing my fingers from one side to the other. Throughout the appointment, I remained polite, but she made no effort to be friendly or provide good customer service. The worst part happened at the end. My hands were covered with nail dust, but instead of properly cleaning them or wiping them with a warm towel like other salons usually do, she applied lotion directly over the dust. I could clearly feel the particles being rubbed into my hands, which was very unpleasant. She did not even ask me to remove my watch and continued moving my lotion-covered hands back and forth over my watch. At the end, I paid in cash. While counting the money, she said, "Let me see," as if she was checking whether I had paid correctly. Because I was unhappy with the service, I decided not to leave a tip. She then loudly repeated, "No tip? No tip?" in front of everyone there. I found this behavior extremely unprofessional and embarrassing. Overall, this was a very unpleasant experience. Because of the rough treatment, poor service, lack of professionalism, and inappropriate comments about tipping, I cannot recommend this nail technician.
