I've been coming here for over 15 years and have seen many nail techs come and go. I've tried a little bit of everything over the years, and the experience has always been consistent. The salon is always clean, communication via text is quick and easy, and they're incredibly accommodating even with last-minute appointments. My favorite nail techs are Vi and Lynn- they always do an amazing job. Thank you to the entire team for all the hard work you put in! read more

Recently moved to the Mission Hills area from Talmadge and decided to try this closer spot for my usual gel mani and regular pedi. I was hoping I found my new neighborhood nail spot, but honestly my gel manicure looks awful and I'm super disappointed. The vibe there is kinda cold and felt very rushed. The manicurist was polite but careless. Don't get me wrong, I'm all about efficiency but she nicked BOTH of my thumbs during the cuticle trim, which is incredibly rare for me. If she had slowed down this probably would not have happened. In addition, she didn't fully cover my nails properly with the polish so the tips are darker and look splotchy overall. Also, she did not go down far enough to cuticle or even down the sides of the nails with polish, so it looks like I got them done a week ago and not 5 hours ago. On the plus side, they did do a good job on the pedicure. Total was around $115, including tip. Unfortunately, I will be going back to Kensington Nails (where Kate and her team do an amazing job every single time, highly recommend!) to fix these. I'd rather do the drive than have a sloppy, low-quality manicure with cuts on my cuticles. read more

I originally came in to get ombre, pink and white coffin, after an hour of being in the chair no paint was on my nails no color at all after two hours. This is what I left with. I've been coming here for over 15 years and this place is really gone downhill. It's dirty. There's bugs everywhere and the work is shoddy. Does anyone have any recommendations for any other nail salons? read more

I have gone here several times my most recent visit was a total flop. Pedicure caused entire nail to simple fall off , within 12 hours I discovered discovered manicure causing failure of nail as well. Pedicure made 3 out of ten toes bleed. Manacure caused 2 out of 10 fingers bleed. As a diabetic my feet are very susceptible to wounds and infections that are not addressed immediately and by a professional. The week before I my podiatrist cut my toenails no blood no wounds, no open wounds. read more

My foot was INFECTED after my pedicure and my manicure was messed up. Super nice employees it was just very dirty and would not recommend.

We were two pedicure walk-in appointments, and in the middle is Mother's Day! The staff greeted us immediately even while everyone was already busy with their customers. We were still greeted, questions answered and barely waited a few minutes before being greeted and assigned to our chairs. They ladies were very welcoming and wanted to understand all our needs and concerns before getting started. During the pedicure they were meticulous about the experience and the results. They were also very friendly with conversation and I give extra credit for the longer than expected massage that I received. read more

I this is the one place , I continue to go back too. when I want a truly exceptional experience, I go see Yen. She offers personalized service and consistently gives fantastic foot massages during my pedicures. Not only does she provide top-notch care, but we also have great conversations, and I appreciate how she cares for her wonderful family. This place is simply outstanding, and Yen is the reason I keep coming back. read more

Monumental Fail. Booked 2 basic pedis for 1:30 and arrived 5 minutes early and we were asked to come back later. 20 min later, we sit down for pedis. Someone starts with my BF first while I sat soaking in cold water/non jets for over 30 minutes. The tech finishes his pedi, then goes to eat her lunch in front of us while I am still waiting. Other staff is busy with the TV and incense display while I wait. Finally another tech finishes with a client and it's go time for me... By now, I have advised 3 techs that I no longer have time for polish due to waiting so long. Then cuticle cut too close and I am now bleeding. BF went to Raplhs while I finished my pampering/torture. My BF had some callus removal with a pumice block(sweet) But I did not get that offered. Could not wait to leave. And lastly, the poor nail cutting was the topper. Nothing straight, no filing... ugh. read more

I had a really disappointing and painful experience at this nail salon and would not recommend it. I made an appointment for four people, but when we arrived they didn't have space for us. After waiting, I was finally seated for my manicure, and from the start the technician was extremely aggressive and impatient. Shortly after, I was moved to a pedicure chair to receive both my manicure and pedicure at the same time. The manicurist continued to be very rough and drilled into my nail beds to the point where it hurt and burned. I told her multiple times that she was hurting me, but she kept going and said she would "take care of me." On top of that, the pedicure technician used the wrong color, and the manicurist shaped my nails very short and pointed, which was not what I asked for. When I told her I was unhappy with the shape and length, she called over the manager. Instead of addressing my concerns, the manager told me I was wrong and that the technician was doing it correctly. It got worse from there. The technician started speaking negatively about me in front of the staff and my friends who were with me. After several more minutes of her drilling into my nail beds and causing pain, I told her I wanted to stop the service. In response, she cut all my nails down extremely short and continued drilling into my nail beds, which was very painful. The entire experience felt invasive and upsetting. I was crying and asking them to stop, yet the manager still charged me for the services and showed no concern for how distressed I was. Overall, this was one of the worst salon experiences I've ever had. I left in pain and very upset, and I would strongly caution others before going here. read more

I can only review Vy because she's the only one that does my nails consistently. Request her! She is a true artist. She listens to what you want and is so creative. read more

I typically never leave reviews, however, after seeing all the other reviews I felt I had to. When I first started coming here it was inconsistent because of who was working the front. But ever since Linh started it has been a great experience. She is so fun to talk to and helps me decide what to do with my nails. (I feel it is important to note that just because she speaks fluent English does not mean she shouldn't be able to speak in her NATIVE language. That doesn't mean she is talking badly or angry) I used to go to the same nail tech for over 15 years and switched to this location because Vy is so great at doing dip nails. She always helps me find the exact color I want and even gives me ideas on what to do when I can't decide. Moon is the BEST tech for pedicures and takes her time and is so thorough. I will say you have to find the right people for what you need - not everyone is going to be perfect. But once you do, this location is great. My mom and I both come here and our nails last 4-5 weeks. read more

Parking is super easy, and free (Pavilions parking garage), which is already a win compared to a lot of other salons in the area. The location is convenient and easy to find. The pricing is reasonable, especially considering the quality of service. It's definitely more affordable than some of the trendier salons nearby, but you still get great results. They offer a wide range of services, especially the different levels and types of pedicures. The nail techs are skilled, they have done intricate designs for me, as well as fixed any issues I may have incurred a week of less into my new set (I had gotten the chrome and it tends to chip off the edges fast) The staff is really kind and welcoming, and they didn't rush through my appointment. Everyone seemed genuinely focused on making sure customers were happy. I also appreciate their flexible hours, which make it easy to squeeze in an appointment even with a busy schedule. read more

First pedicure in 2 years because this really isn't my thing, but the talons were getting out of control. First of all, there was parking. It was busy when I walked up, so I signed in and sat outside expecting to wait. I was greeted and told to pick my color 3 minutes later. The selection wasn't amazing, but I was looking for lizard green, which I'm sure isn't a top pick. I found something else. They had massage chairs. The atmosphere was super peaceful, as busy as it was. I think my tech's name was Amy? It was nice to have the same person the whole time. I just wanted a super basic pedicure and I feel like that usually gets neglected and tossed around to whoever is available, but I felt super attended-to. My feet look and feel great. I'm so glad that I went and I'm looking forward to going bac read more

ProfessioNail - Just a basic-a** pedicure was all I needed. I'm super happy and felt taken care of. - Nail Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

I live around the block and have been coming here for years. I stopped in today because my usual nail tech at another salon is on vacation and thought this would be a convenient temporary option. My experience started off well--the male tech doing my gel manicure and the female tech doing my pedicure were both fine. Unfortunately, things quickly took a turn when the young woman who answers the phones (and speaks perfect English) took over my manicure. Her attitude was unnecessarily rude and made it clear she did not want to be there. She repeatedly moved my hands roughly and acted irritated, even though I was polite and patient the entire time. I've been getting my nails done every 2-3 weeks for years and never had an experience quite like this. I requested a simple, solid color on both mani and pedi, and at the end I asked for an extra coat on my toes. She reacted with clear annoyance, turned away, and began speaking in Vietnamese in a tone that made it obvious she thought my request was ridiculous. It wasn't. On a previous visit, a different staff member who handles payments demanded I tip the technician--which I always do, even when I'm not thrilled with the service. After today, I won't be returning. There are too many other salons that appreciate their customers. read more

Unfortunately, the quality has gone down here over the years. The service is lacking compared to other salons and the color swatches are always disorganized. The vibes are often off, too, with techs seeming distracted while working on a client. Mine seemingly was (she kept looking around the salon) because she missed quite a bit of cuticle. read more

I had a pedicure today by Yen. She is so attentive and friendly. I haven't had a nail tech so friendly in a long time. She and I chatted the entire time. She is detail oriented and the polish on my toes looks amazing! read more

ProfessioNail - Fresh manicure with dip color G136 - Nail Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

I cannot say enough good things about Yen. She's truly the best! I've been seeing her for pedicures and every single time she goes above and beyond. She's incredibly sweet, patient, and positive, and always makes me feel completely relaxed and taken care of. Her massages are amazing with just the right amount of pressure, and she never rushes through them. You can tell she genuinely cares about her clients. She's also very meticulous with every detail. Yen makes sure my cuticles are perfectly clean and even, often going back to refine her work until everything looks flawless. She's also great about helping me pick a color. She'll let me try on a few shades, and even if I change my mind (which I usually do), she's always cheerful about it. The shape is always perfect and my polish lasts for weeks. If you're looking for someone who takes pride in her work, makes you feel pampered, and consistently delivers gorgeous results, make an appointment with Yen. She's the best. read more

They did an excellent job repairing a nail that had fallen off (from a different salon). Friendly with good prices.

Yen does an amazing job. Her attention to detail is perfect. I couldn't recommend anybody better to do your nails then yet you won't be sorry. read more

I've been coming here since I moved to the area 5yrs ago. They were great & super convenient for me. However, recently the past year they have gone DOWNHILL. I finally decided to not come back after today's visit. The staff is super unfriendly. The quality of service is terrible for the price they change. Today I saw technician named Cindy, for a pedicure. She was unfriendly. She rushed me even picking out my nail polish. My pedi wasn't done right, she completely rushed through it. She scrubbed my feet, dry! Didn't wet my feet before the scrub. TERRIBLE. I will be looking for a new Nail Salon & won't return. read more

I just got my cuticles done and she cleaned my nails up nicely. The Massge felt nice.

After only about 2 weeks, the nail polish started to peel. I asked for acrylic nails and it felt old and lumpy. I told the staff and they said it was normal. I asked for a new one and once again, it's peeled. Next time, don't get polish from the 1800s!!! read more

I got a dip manicure that ordinarily lasts 3 weeks only lasted 2 days. I was weirded out that she was filing the edges of my nails after they were sealed with the top gel coat but I didn't say anything-- because she's the expert. Sure enough, she broke the seal off every one of my nails and the polish kept chipping almost immediately. Literally the worst manicure I ever got. These photos were taken 2 days after my manicure. For context: I do not work with my hands nor have I done anything rough that would warrant my nails to chip like this. The most laborious thing I might've done was wash dirty dishes... to which a mail dip should not have been affected like this. I gave 2 stars due to paying a great price (only $50). But then again, you get what you pay for. I will not be coming back. read more

I've been going to the salon since it first opened. It's the best. Amy and Leann are exceptional for dip manicures. They are always so patient when I'm trying to figure out what color I'd like, which is much appreciated. It always feels clean and bright and welcoming inside. Prices are comparable to most salons in the area and well worth it! read more

Nice nail technicians!! OVERLY EXPENSIVE place. Front desk woman very fluent in English, will try to add extra fees when paying with things you didn't ask for. Very disrespectful and not professional at all. I will NEVER go back! read more

Look. I hate to do this. I've been going to Professionail for years because I can always count on them to give me a solid pedicure, plus they have parking and rarely make you wait. This time, I got paired with a clearly inexperienced technician, which made the service take far longer than it typically does, the filing of the nails touched and hurt my skin, and she kept bumping the UV machine against the fresh paint and having to re-coat it. I also asked for callous removal and it was barely done/not done correctly. That isn't even my issue. Even though they've been SO nice to me before, I still don't expect to be cuddled with attentive customer service, so when someone is particular rude I've got to say something. When I got in, a lady I hadn't seen before yelled at me across the salon asking me what I was looking for, picked up my bag and moved it without first asking for permission, explicitly asked the lady next to me how she was gonna pay for the tip because she had paid with card and told her not to tip on the card, even though she wanted to, and while I was paying proceeded to speak to my tech as I was tipping her in cash in Vietnamese even though she had used perfect English during all of the interactions I mentioned, which may not have been meant to exclude me, but sure did. I get it, there may be so many other things going on that I have no clue about, and bad days happen to all kinds of people, but instead of getting my nails done feeling like a little treat, it was a weird vibe and I won't be back. read more
