I've been going to Rachel's Nail Spa for a little over 2 years now, and I honestly can't say enough great things! Happy to have found Kenny, as he NAILS my inspiration photos every single time! There's also a wide selection of colors, and charms to choose from, so it's easy to get creative. Ask to see his great selection of charms & stickers! I get tons of compliments on my nails, and I always send people his way. Even my mom is now a loyal client! she loves her nails every time! I also get a basic Gel Pedicure (which starts at just $35), but depending on your add ons it ranges! the foot massages are great! The salon itself is super clean, with a friendly staff! never overly crowded, and has a relaxing, welcoming vibe. You don't feel rushed!! Thank you Kenny & John & Lily
They did way better the first time I came but yesterday they were rushing and did not do well. I spent a lot of money on the nails, they aren't terrible but definitely not $55 the first set i got by them was $50 and they were cuter.(the set that's not see through) I have bubbles in my nails, and not to mention cuts on my nails from him filling way too close to my cuticles, I had to dress them up. I really liked this shop before but they did a sloppy job this time. It's a cute little shop but idk
They did a great job but 1000% recommending scheduling an appointment! I showed up right when they opened on a Saturday and still had to wait 45-hour for my pedicure and manicure. I asked in the beginning if they could fit me in and they said yes, but they should've mentioned the wait would've been that long. I think not mentioning the wait time was what made me upset. Was seriously tempted to walk out but they already had me soaking my feet. Like I said though, my nails look great and they had a large color selection. I paid $70 for both pedicure and acrylic full set so I don't think it was that bad at all. Would try this place again, but will make an appointment next time.
This is the best nail shop I have visited in a very long time. I went in without appointment and they serviced me within 10 minutes. The employees are very polite and very humble. I had a full set of nails done with Kenny. Let me tell you, Kenny is a true nail artist. He is so meticulous and you can just tell that he is working his art on your nails. He did my nails just the way I like them. They look very natural, crisp and clean. Although I don't live near, this is my new nail place. Thank you Kenny for your amazing work.
It was a nice place to get a quick pedicure bc I did not have to wait too long! Hopefully, next time there will be more space and the chair will work!
Writing a terrible experience review for them. I asked the nail tech if they could do marble and how much it was and she never answered. They communicated between themselves and then when I looked at her she said one second. She did the foil on my nails and I asked her again about the marble and then said if she can't or it's going to take too long I just want to do a regular gel color. Also nail techs should know that you shouldn't have acetone on for that long of a period (35 minutes). Clearly did not care what I had to say because then after they assumed that I wanted only marble so they kept skipping me. If there was only one person that can do it then please COMMUNICATE to the customer so they can decide. Another thing but I think this is at nail salons across-the-board please don't say that you have time right now if you cannot take somebody within the first five minutes. That does not mean you have availability all that means is you have time at some point. (For this salon one hour wait is not that you have time for me right now) This is something that should be changing across all nail salons. All customers ask for is clear communication. The worst part: My gel nails had bubbles in them. He didn't file them underneath and are very rough. Now I need to fix them on my own. Not worth the money. Warning to not go here if you don't have a plethora of time. And if you don't want any communication from them.
Missed pampering myself!! I'm so thankful I decided to come in. Patrick the nail tech did my full set and let me tell you he paid attention to detail didn't rush thru the process. I also got my pedicure done and after 3 month quarantine I feel back to normal. Prices are reasonable for the quality they provide. Will definitely be coming back again
The worst nail place I've been to!! The man did my toes and I can't complain those are decent but the woman that did my nails ruined them. She made them way too short then tried making them longer so made them super thick and uneven. Then got mad at me when I complained. Never ever again. Don't waste your time or money. Also as I'm in there 2 other women were complaining to there techs and at one point one woman grabbed the file from the nail tech and started to file her own nails!!! Horrible
Came in for a pedicure this past weekend and during the service, the lady kept a digging and into my nail causing my big toe, and the one next to it, on my left foot to bleed for the past couple days. Now my toe is slightly swollen and purple on the sides. She even cut my toe nails with a cuticle cutter, NOT nails clippers.
Ma boiiii PETER!!!! Always doing an amazing work Always ask for Peter he gets down!!!! Show him pictures or even say do yo thang and he got you.. I will never go to anyone but peter and for a girl that does her nails often is a big win But besides that everyone is soo nice on there. Very welcoming and they make you feel comfortable
I love Nikki!! She always does my nails exactly how I want them. I was never really into designs or fun colors but she's definitely made me more open to them. Everyone at The Nail Spa does great work! And they are very friendly! I commute all the way from Orange County to see Nikki! Kenny and Peter have done my nails as well and they came out great too! If you're looking for a new Nail place to try give the nail spa a shot! They take their time, they are all creative and they make sure you're always happy with your mani and pedi.

Good work, LACK OF COMPREHENSION! Some people's thing is shoes, hair or hobbies. My thing is NAILS. I have and I will spend ridiculous amounts of money for my nails. I said that to say I recently took off my acrylics and decided to try a gel manicure. I walked in and asked for a gel manicure and was told to wait (not given a wait time) no big deal. I waited for approximately 40 minutes before being seen. No big deal. I explained I just recently took my acrylics nails off and I needed a gel manicure because I wanted to start growing my natural nails. I asked could they put a layer of acrylics on my natural nails to keep them strong (because a friend of mine gets her natural nails done this way and they are very healthy and strong) A man who was not doing my nails chimed in and suggested I get the dipping gel/powder because it last longer and it will help keep my natural nails strong, I said sounds great and asked the pricing, he said $40. That was perfect. I wanted a marble design on my nail and the technician that was doing my nails was unable to do the marble so another man told me he would do it, he told me that would be an additional $5. That was fine. The man that chimed in and suggested the dipping powder told me my total would be $48. Where the $3 came from, I don't know, but this PRICE was still OK with me. They lady drills my natural nails (again I just took off acrylic) and then proceeds to dip my nails in the powder. I stop her and ask about an ACTUAL MANICURE, my nails weren't soaked in water, my cuticles weren't cut, and they were not filed or buffed prior to her placing the powder on my nails. The guy that suggested this chimes in once again and says a manicure isn't included. I asked him 'I'm paying $48 dollars just to have my nails painted?!' That doesn't make sense when my initial request was a MANICURE! He proceeds to tell me that a manicure would be an additional $14, which I was STILL willing to pay because again I CAME IN FOR A MANICURE. They began to get frustrated with me and my concern of charging $48 without doing a simple manicure. I tried to explain a countless time I still wanted the dipping powder I just wanted a real manicure first. For whatever reason they did not understand this and asked me to pick new colors for a gel manicure (since the colors I picked was the dipping powder). At this point I'm frustrated so I pick (3) new gel colors (I originally picked 3 dipping powder colors) I asked the lady to make my thumb, index and pinky the same color and the middle finger a glitter and the ring finger white. I had to say this a LITERAL 7 TIMES and literally hand her the polish per finger because she did not understand, for whatever reason. Ultimately I did get a decent gel manicure, with gel polish and paid a total of $30. The experience was so annoying I won't be back here but the work was good. read more
I used to come here a lot for gel manicures with the previous owner. However, I stopped coming because they didn't have spa chairs for pedicures so I found another place. Decided to come here on a whim on a Wednesday for just a manicure and the place looked so different! I found out they switched owners a year ago. Ivy did my manicure and she was very nice. I ended up coming back a couple weeks later for a pedicure because they now have spa chairs! These spa chairs are very nice and comfy. I wish I took a picture of the remote because it had a lot of options as well. Kenny did my pedicure and did a great job. So happy for the new owners and spa chairs! I'll be back! read more

Went to get my nails done at this nail salon on a Wednesday and one week later the color of the nail drastically changed. The original color were pink with white tips and now they are an orangish color with a dirty beige tip, only after one week! I went to the nail salon to see if they can fix or replace them but they wanted to charge me for a whole new service and didn't even offer to fix them. I did not use any chemicals or special products against the nails, they changed colors on their own. Bad service and bad products! read more

I came across this place on yelp...so I decided to take and chance to try it out and highly recommend you go see Peter! I showed him a picture and told him the shape I wanted & he delivered! Reasonable prices (Paid $48 for medium length colored dip powder w/ coffin shape) About 5-7 nail techs which I love so they won't have to rush. The place was nice and clean. You won't be disappointed. read more

I fired the woman doing my nails because she man handled me as seen by plucking away cuticles harshly, she cut me, and used the drill so harshly on one nail my nerves pulsated and was tender. When I got fed up and fired her after yelping once then asking her to ease up, she told me, "I didn't even cut you." Then she reached for my hand again, but I refused. The person doing my toes and the new nail lady was nice and did a fair job. The nail tech didn't put me under the dryer and said I was done after 10 minutes of air drying. As soon as I got to the car, one nail messed up but I was able to smooth the polish. Two hours later (see photos) read more

I have some mixed feelings about my experience. The salon was clean, staff was friendly, and honestly I had one of the best pedicures at this salon. The downside is that I got chemical burns all over my left foot from the callus remover. I had to tell my tech that my skin was burning. He poured water over my foot, but the damage was done. It's been several days and my foot still hurts. I hope it will be healed in time for a wedding this weekend. read more

I went in to get my acrylics nails removed. Instead of soaking the acrylics off in acetone, the older woman used the "quick" (and rough) method of peeling them off using a fake nail, and took off a good portion of my real nail. In the photo: there's no nail on tip of my finger, hence why it's red. read more

Loved my experience here! I haven't gone to a nail salon in such a long time and I was relieved to find this spot and be satisfied with the service and result. I came in wanting something simple and subtle, so I went with 258 for my gel mani. I'm very content with how gentle and precise he was with cleaning my nails. I'll definitely be back read more

New to the area in search of a go to nail salon. I specifically made an appointment with Peter bc he seemed to be the better nail tech with the pictures mostly of his work. I came in for a fill and 3 nail fix which came to $25. The shape was pretty dead on from my previous tech with the exception of my right thumb nail. It's shorter and stubby in shape and I had to have him shape it so it at least wasn't completely crooked. He's a little heavy handed but overall it was a decent job. I don't know if this will be my go to salon but not a bad back up read more

Did they move somewhere else? I passed by and saw that it says "Rachel Nail Spa" so I'm curious if they moved or it's just a new name?
It's just a new name. He renamed it to his daughters name.
Can I make an appointment for 3pm today? Phone number listed does not work
Do anyone know their process while doing natural nails? (For instance do they remove gel polish by filing it off or scraping it off?)…
Hello Ash, great question, we file the top coat off then soak nails in acetone-soaked cotton and then scrub the soaked nails off with a cuticle pusher. Please let the technician know about your goal and they'll be happy to assist with enhancing your…
How much do you charge for a fill?
He charged me 35 but im sure it ranges in price but you can always call peter in advance. Hope this helps
