Poor cuticle work

Please consider the negative reviews. Used to love coming here, but extremely dissatisfied with service and poor attitude that came with no attention to detail. Rushed my gel manicure and was unable to clean cuticle lines after I asked three times.

Paid 48 dollars for a pedicure "SPA" that had no massage or anything my toes came out absolutely horrible. DO NOT COME HERE.

Acrylic French Manicure
Diane S.

It was the first time I ever got my nails done professionally. French manicure-$25 Plus gel-$5 more $30 total including acrylic nails. It looked fabulous, I got many compliments. It was for homecoming :) But still pretty expensive.

My nails are even long and i was charged an extra $4... They are poorly painted too but i was gonna be charged if i wanted her to fix it

I went on a Sunday and turns out that there is only one lady working. When i got there she was very nice... until i told her how i wanted my acrylics. I told her i wanted white acrylics... all white nails. She got mad at me asking why i wanted that color. i mean they are my nails lol. She cut my finger like 4 times and it started bleeding.. she didn't do anything about it. Then when she was done she charged me an extra $4. She said because my nails were too long. They were honestly super short. I think it was because i chose a white color. One of my nails got smudged and she wanted to charge me more because she said it was my fault but all i did was extend my arm so she could paint my nail. The nails acrylics are $26 but since they're so cheap you are going to get cheap quality. Next time i would rather pay a little extra for WAY BETTER quality and customer service.

Gel mani and pedi done by Julie a few days ago! Still looking great!
Raena M.

My family and I have been going here for probably over ten years! And the only person we will go to is Julie. She is very thorough with everything make sure you have an appointment though because she can get very busy. I've done everything with her from acrylics, gel, mani, and always pedis. You can tell she has an ocd with her work she wants to make sure you are satisfied and if she feels that it doesn't look nice she will redo it (this means her custom flower designs which are the best). My favorite things to get from her are pedis. The nail polish last over a month they never chip off. And the way she cleans your feet is amazing she even massages your legs and feet not a lot of salons do this anymore. As far as gel and acrylics they both last about a little over a month as well and here they don't over charge you. A few days ago I got a gel manicure with a pedicure for only $37! That includes the flower design she did on my toes. I have gone to other places and people even to different states and I'm very picky with how my nails look. And it's nothing comparable to her work. Wouldn't recommend any where else! Picture posted of her work from a few days ago still looking new!

Okay these ladies are very nice! I came the first time and got a pedicure and I could tell the lady came straight from Vietnam, which isn't bad. It's just different for us Americans which explains why a lot of people complain she cuts too much skin. In vietnam people PREFER you to cut a lot of skin off, if you don't they complain and say you did a sloppy job. So naturally she did cut me..just once though. I brought my mom back and she loved it! haha...don't worry I don't get it either. Anyways the next time I came back I made sure to say that I really didn't want a lot cut off so they did a great job and for the price it was good. Again it's not the most relaxing place, and it's not the most pampering place but for the price you leave with decent nails that wont' leave a hole in ur pocket! Oh but they charge you a dollar to use a credit card!

Wrong shape, length, &horrible paint job. Only did white b/c she could not perform the ombré fill. Leftover acrylic on skin too
Danielle G.

Horrible. The old lady could not perform my ombré fill so I just settled for a repair on one of my nails- to be painted white. EXTREMELY shaky hands. Almost 1 hour for 1 nail. She did not get the shape (casket) or length right although she compared it? Got acrylic stuck to my finger and kept scratching my hand to get it off had to use a nail clipper to cut it off. She said she was done but only used white primer acrylic -__- I asked for it to be painted white! And to top it off, I had to put my hand in the LED light 6 times.. She came and checked on me and commented, "oh, it's still not dry?" -well I don't think it was LED polish & topcoat to begin with. Even the paint job was horrible, all over my cuticle.

Got the blues for red

I've been coming to Tori Nail Bar & Spa for years, and the service is always top-tier. Everyone is…read moreso kind, welcoming, and genuinely cares about their clients. One of my favorite things is that the owner always remembers each client's name as they walk through the door. He has such a friendly, personable demeanor that makes every visit feel special. This time, Trina did my manicure, and she is amazing! She really listened to what I wanted and took the time to make sure everything was perfect. If you're ever unsure about which color to choose, she has a great eye and gives excellent recommendations. Neither my manicure nor pedicure felt rushed--Trina and Terry both took their time, paid attention to every detail, and made the experience incredibly relaxing. I truly enjoyed my mani/pedi and always leave feeling refreshed. I'll definitely continue coming back to Tori Nail Bar & Spa. Highly recommend!

I went here for the first time with my daughter. The salon front desk (maybe owner?) did keep…read moreconfirming that my daughter would be getting a manicure only and i would be getting both mani/pedi when we arrived. But they started the foot tub for the both of us, so I decided we would both do pedi too then since they did that. She got the lowest package and I got the middle package. I just thought it was strange they would do that when they knew what we wanted. I liked my fingernails after it was finished. But I did think the gel on the toenails looked chunky. I got blue french tips and Daughter wanted only clear coat with paw prints. Its been a week. My fingernails are still intact. But yesterday, I felt like my big toes were detaching from my toes. This feeling was confirmed after my right big toe slightly tapped the laundry basket and flew off. Looks my it took the top half my actual nail too because you can see the skin.I have bandaged that toe and also the left big toe as well (as a precaution.) Be cautious if you get a pedicure here.

My brother and I love getting our pedicure done together as a sibling hobby. After a fellow Yelper…read morerecommended this spot, we decided to check it out! Booking an appointment was fairly simple, we just phone called and booked an appointment with our name and number. Once we arrived, we were greeted and seated almost immediately. The chairs were comfortable and had a massage option. They did use disposable plastic to cover the pedicure tray and I was impressed by the hygiene standards. Nicky was helping me with the pedicure and she was super welcoming and sweet. She ensured that my pedicure was done perfectly. She also offered some water and complimentary champagne. My brother also had a good experience! Overall, we liked the nail salon. I did wish they offered student discount though. That was a bummer. However, I do recommend trying out this place. The people are nice and the service is excellent!

I am traumatized!! Will never be getting waxed again. I had an appointment for a wax with Joanne…read more We waited for two days for my hair to grow out. I went in and at any point before service she could've stopped me and said my hair is too short. She waxed me and after starting picking at my short hairs. It was so painful, I eventually told her to stop. I came for a waxing, why is my skin being picked? Again she could've told me at any point she couldn't and I would've been fine. After service I asked for a manager which I was told no one was there. A woman walked up to me two minutes later and started touching at my chin at which I told her stop it hurts, she claimed to be some leadership. She then tried to touch my shoulder, I don't need to be touched, I need my hair to be removed. Don't even start me on my nails, also done by Joanne. I got catseye, one side is stunning the other is mish mosh, I could tell something was wrong when she couldn't get the magnet to work.

I found Valley Nails on Yelp while looking for a new spot after moving from Carlsbad, and I'm so…read moreglad I did--it's super convenient to my work. It's located inside Phoenix Salon Suites, and even though it's a smaller space, it actually makes the whole experience feel more relaxed and semi-private. Everyone there is really focused on doing a great job, and you can tell they care about the details. Stephanie has done my nails for the past three visits, and I've loved them every time. She's amazing at shaping and filing, and always makes sure everything looks even and clean--without me having to say a thing. She's also just really warm and easy to talk to, which makes the whole appointment even better.

I will always come back to Valley Nails because they do such good work!! I came here on a Friday in…read moreperson to make an appointment with Stephanie for the next day. They've moved locations since my last review. They're currently in Phenix Salon which is closer to Sprouts and Burlington Coat Factory. When you enter go towards the left and it's the first door on your right. The other suite is at the end of that same hall. They currently have two suites but Stephanie said they're looking at another permanent location that's big enough to fit all their workers in. This setup in Phenix Salon is only temporary. Anyway, I came in at 10am on Saturday morning to get my nails done for Coachella. I showed Stephanie the strawberry nails that I wanted and she delivered!! Got a gel manicure and a higher tier pedicure and total for both was $110. I wish I got the name of my pedicurist because she did a really good job with scrubbing the dead skin and calluses off my feet. To be honest she's been the best pedicure that I've ever gotten at Valley Nails. It's been two weeks since Coachella and my toe nails still look pristine!!

Came in while I was waiting for traffic to die down, and I was not disappointed…read more Everyone I met was friendly and welcoming. I got a quality dip-powder manicure at a great price. Natalie, my nail tech was very gentle yet thorough, and took her time to make sure my nails looked just how I wanted. Today was my first time visiting, but it certainly won't be the last :)

I rarely give poor reviews, but this place left me no choice…read more Let's start with the good - the salon is well-kept, clean, and spacious. Two stars for that and for my pedicurist who did fine on my toes! Now for the bad - it was extremely difficult to communicate in English with the employees. I'm from an immigrant family myself, and don't expect fluency, but there has to be some minimal level of language ability if one works in a service industry. My manicurist could not comprehend what I was saying to her whatsoever, resulting in a completely different nail shape than I requested. I immediately corrected her after she filed the first nail, only to have her do the exact same thing with the second nail, at which point I had her stop. Finally the ugly - there was zero attempt at service recovery. I was not offered a different manicurist even though there were others available, and when I asked the front desk attendant if I could speak with a store manager or owner, she refused, not seeming to understand that I was only trying to provide constructive criticism not get anyone in trouble. In the end, I left with two fingernails shaped differently and much shorter than the rest, and therefore had to reshape them plus cut and shape the others on my own. :(

irene saved my nails today on such short notice. her attention to detail, honesty, and expertise…read morecompletely won me over and i cannot wait to return for my next appt. for context, the day prior to my walk-in at kim nails, i went to another salon and received gel x that was poorly fit (my sidewalls were still showing on 6 out of 10 nails), an ombre that was not blended whatsoever, and extensions that were sloping so far up my coworker two desks over asked me if i wanted her to fix them for me. i couldn't endure it so i decided to go to kim nails near my work and ask them to just soak it all off and redo the entire set. irene took one look at my nails, patiently heard me out, and got to work. instead of a new set, she and her coworker filed down all that previous unshaped bulk and gave me the best acrylic fill of my life. irene dedicated extra time to filing and shaping my nails pre-builder gel and then even more time post-builder gel to create the perfect apex and minimize unnecessary weight. ive never had a nail tech use three different drill bits just to refine my nail shape before at a salon. she even filed underneath the nail where the gel from the previous extension had built up - without me asking! this all by itself was more than i could have asked for, but then i find out that they have asian nail polishes, too! ive always brought very translucent/transparent inspo pics to my appts and have always been let down by opaque polishes. but at kim nails they have the exact type of translucent jelly nail polishes i have been looking for!! irene also perfected the subtle cateye gleam that i love and have been unable to achieve at home. when i inquired re: designs, irene informed me that if she feels like she can't do a design justice, she'll be upfront with her client and let them know. i value this honesty so much because i am lowkey nonconfrontational and have watched my nails become something totally different than the inspo i brought to the table. to top it all off, they have a very, very affordable pricing for a very efficient appointment. for the same duration and more effort, i almost spent under half of what i paid just the day before for my previous set. (i tipped over 50% to match because it would feel like a moral failure to pay irene any less than what i paid for my failed set.) all in all, 5 out of 5 stars i am endlessly grateful. my pictures do not do this establishment justice and for that i apologize i will take better pictures with my next set!!!

I hope the salon improves its attention to detail and customer service in the future.
