I had a very bad experience with technician Kim. I asked her directly not to use super glue for powder nail set but she did it anyway. On the photo you can see raw skin along with blood from tools during cuticle removal. read more

Hidden gem in the adorable town of Niles! This nail salon is clean, friendly, and super affordable -- such a rare combo these days. I was able to walk in without an appointment and got seated pretty quickly. The staff were kind and made the whole experience feel relaxed and easy. Street parking was no issue at all, and there are plenty of lots nearby if needed. While it's not a luxury spa, it's perfect for a reliable, budget-friendly mani/pedi in a charming neighborhood. Def my go to (: read more

This place is tucked away in Niles and honestly getting there seems kind of sketch. But the deals are unbeatable. Got two sets of acrylics, two pedicures, and eyebrows threaded for well under $200. The quality of the acrylic set I would say was a 7.5/10 though. Mainly due to the placement of the nail and the filing. This set did last me over 4 weeks with no breakage. There's a lot of nail techs and the salon is huge. I will say don't come here if you are expecting the best service. It's pretty clear the nail techs love to talk to each other about ... you. read more

Went with family to get manicures and pedicures. Good value for gel manicure and pedicure. Make sure to make an appointment before hand. We called morning of and had to wait a bit before we got started but that's okay because we were seated in the massage chairs and enjoyed. They have a good amount of space with two different rooms. They have you wash your hands upon arrival to help keep everyone safe. I would come back here again with family. read more

Really weird. Like, I'm more baffled than mad. After Sunday brunch with some friends, I walked in on a whim to try out builder gel. When I asked if they had any, they kept directing me to the gel and acrylic examples, which are not the same thing. Eventually, they handed me a cardboard box of unopened jars of powder, calling it builder gel (it's not). Oh well, I'm still getting my nails done and that's nice. The experience was rougher than I'm used to. Conversation was nice and she was obviously experienced but the process was different so I didn't always know what we were doing, e.g. curing or adding glue under my nails. A friend tagged along so I was also chatting with them during the process. At the end, nail powder residue was still all over my hands and rubbed in with the lotion, which covered up how rough my cuticles were. You can see them in the attached photos. After paying $50 (includes tip), I walked out to notice that one of my nails was ridiculously crooked. I don't even know if the photo fully shows just how weirdly tilted it is. You can also see spots of blood where I got nicked or pricked by the tools. There's another one where my skin connects under the nail and it is sealed with a thick layer of glue. But hey, what am I going to do - redo it at the same place? I'm not going to rage about it but it was just wild. I'd rather have my $50. read more

Walked in with the hubby on a weekday morning after breakfast and they were able to take us right away. We both had a basic pedi and they did a good job. Standard service for a nail salon nothing fancy. With prices these days they're reasonable for a pedi. Will definitely return. read more

The BEST nail salon in my opinion. I've been going here for years for manicures, pedicures and fills and have never been disappointed. They do really clean work and take their time to do it how you want it. They do get REALLY busy at random times so I recommend making an appointment with either Jen, Ni or Helen for nails :) read more

I am super dissatisfied with the French tip manicure I got today at pretty nails. I came in with my daughter to get our nails done for an event today. The lady that did my nails was a bit shakey but I gave her the benefit of the doubt! She cut my skin in a few areas. During the process I told her I did not like the white tip ROUND and thought she understood me, she kept working without acknowledging my concerns. Anyway this is the WORST French tip I've ever had! 3 different workers and the owner looked at my nails and they shook their heads and apologized for the bad look. What was more disappointing is that I was not offered a discount. I paid the full $37. I don't think she has enough experience. I do not recommend this place. 5/23/24 UPDATE The owner was kind enough to acknowledge the issue and gave us credit on our next visit. My daughter is very happy with her nails, so updating my review! Thank you for resolving this issue. We appreciate it. Happy customers. read more

I cannot emphasize enough how amazing Haley is here!!! I've been getting my nails done here for over 5 years now, and the quality just keeps getting better. I don't live in the bay area anymore, but I always make a stop here when I'm visiting because it's genuinely so good. This was my first time getting my nails done by Haley and she did such a perfect job after I showed her a picture of what I'd like. Such a professional, talented, and fun person. I have been recommending this place to my friends and family for years and will continue to do so (-: 1000/10 experience and I highly recommend it to anyone in the area. read more

Pretty nails is the cheapest nail place I could find in the area; however, although it is cheap - the quality and service isn't compromised. Although I don't get my nails done often, I've been coming here for the past 5 years whenever there's a special occasion to get my nails done. I've gotten simple acrylics and was always pleased with the quality! I recently got a gel pedicure here! The total was $35 and I had an amazing experience. There are nice massage chairs, and my nail lady was so kind. My toes turned out amazing, and I'll definitely be coming again! read more

The salon is very spacious, clean, and the nail technicians are very detailed and particular; my technician named Ni wiped off my entire French tip if it wasn't perfect. The workers here also seem to really enjoy each other's company. The underside of nails could be a little cleaner, the dip and nails could have been filed down more; but they were so careful checking constantly if they got paint on my fingers that I didn't feel any pain under the UV light. This place is better than other salons, even in NY, that cost twice as much. All of that and it's located on the cute street of Niles! My new go-to. read more

Absolutely worst nail salon experience I've ever had. I came in for a removal and new set and the lady I first was seated with kept talking to her coworker and broke down the pricing as if I couldn't afford it which was unnecessary and I told them I am totally ok with the amount because that's not an issue. From there it got worse, I was switched to a lady on the other side of the salon and she kept making racist remarks, pointed out my sweaty hands multiple times when she cut my skin 3 times that made them sweaty and continued to file over my skin after I told her it hurts. I made sure to say "ow" and she still wasn't gentle or careful after I mentioned my skin is super thin and sensitive to harsh filing. On top of all of that, when she finished my nails she kept squeezing my hands after pouring alcohol on top of my nails, then layered oil right on top which burned and that smell mixed with the filing shavings which was not acceptable. I asked for her to clean my cuticles since extra debris was left and all she did was rub my cuticles and didn't do anything else. Lastly, I washed my hands afterwards to help and she still rushed me by saying "are you done yet?" when the only reason I took my time was to relieve the pain under the water in their sink. As soon as I paid I took a closer look at my nails immediately after and one of my nails isn't even square which was the shape I asked for. Overall, really disappointed. read more
