    Pink nail polish
    Mayra V.

    Every time I come to Radiance Nails Studio, I know I'm going to have a great day. Jayda does an incredible job every single time and she always manages to make my nails look exactly how I wanted them. My acrylic set has lasted 6 weeks (and still looked amazing -- no chipped or lifted nails), and my Gel X set lasted 4 weeks (and could still last longer but I had an event and wanted a different color). Jayda also takes really good care of my real nails, which I really appreciate. 10/10 would recommend!

    I had a fantastic gel manicure and pedicure from Lily and Ava! I did the number 2 two for both with this amazing smelling exfoliant, cream and oil. This color is 69. Thanks ladies! This was a great way to relax and look beautiful. Great quality job.

    Jayda did my nails today she was very sweet and she did a great job! She did my nails exactly how I wanted them and I really recommend this place! If you need to get your nails done with designs and stuff, ask for Jayda!

    The image I showed

    I don't recommend this place. It's not that the shop lacks color options -- the problem was that the lady (Sydney) made no effort to find a shade close to the photo I showed her or to communicate with me to make sure I was satisfied. Instead, she simply said my nails were too short for a gradation and that they didn't have the color, but they had "pink." That was basically all she said. There was no attempt to match the color, no suggestions, and no effort to understand what I wanted. Her attitude was very blunt, and she didn't seem interested in my preferences at all. She kept speaking in her own language to someone else instead of paying attention to me, which made her seem unprofessional. She charged me an extra $15 for an awful airbrush color that didn't look like peach at all. I still tipped her, but this experience was very disappointing, and I won't be returning here again I enjoyed talking to the guy(owner maybe..) from the reception and he assigned a lady who can do the design last time and I liked the result, but the attitude Sydney holds today is not likeable toward customer.

    pink ombre acrylics

    This has been a LONG overdue review. I got these nails done the day before my engagement back in October. Ana, giiiiirrrrl. Yall NEED to get your nails done by Ana. She's literally SO good at what she does AND she's such a sweet woman. It was nice getting to know her. She even taught me some Vietnamese phrases. Ana, if you're reading this, I'm SO sorry for how late I'm posting this yelp review. But ya, I highly recommend this place. Outstanding service and amazing workers! It was a very wholesome & relaxing experience. Ask for Ana!

    Amazing as always. Jayda is the best, service was amazing and she really takes her time with her work. Also she's very informative, I was concerned with my nails being too weak if I kept them long, and she helped me decide what's best for my nails to keep them strong. I know absolutely nothing about nails and she's very helpful

    Champagne Cat Eye by Ana

    I have been coming to Radiance for 3 years now and have loved it since the first visit! This review is long overdue but every tech here has always done an amazing job. Radiance is clean, inviting, and always accommodating! I recently found my go-to tech, Ana, she is amazing and I trust her with any design! Will at the front desk is also always a pleasure to see and very professional. Must see Ana at Radiance :)

    I came in 12:50 for a full set. My artist Emily took me in and everything seemed okay until I asked for the design. It seemed like she didn't want to do any of it, telling me to only pick a few colors and no gems. I wasn't aware I was limited to that after being told by front desk that it was okay. I also said that it didn't have to be exact just something similar. I loved the colors but it looked very unfinished. After mentioning the fact that I wanted gems, Emily was very annoyed of my request. I felt unwelcomed and a burden to the point I just wanted to take off the nails and cry. I thought maybe it was because it was going to be expensive, but it was 90$ I would've paid over 100$ if it meant that I was going to be treated with better care. Extremely disappointed. I will not recommend this place if you just wanted to have some fun designs. I didn't want to stay another second.

    Bubble bath acrylic fill

    Service is amazing, the most kind staff! The play fun videos of travel spots that I love to watch. Perfect, consistent nails every time. Well priced. Great vibes. 10/10. I get acrlyic fill with bubble bath every time. Highly recommend!!!

    Color 157 in red

    This is 157 red done by the amazing Lilly! Feeling festive and red is sexy! I love radiance nails and wouldn't go anywhere else! If anyone is in La Jolla and is looking for a good prices and just a good self care day I suggest radiance nails and book herb Lilly! She's amazing and does amazing work and she's very fast and stay focus on her work!

    I came in to get an acrylic set done for my birthday tomorrow and it is probably one of the best sets I've ever gotten!! My nail artist (I'm pretty sure her name is Sydney, but I could be wrong) did such an amazing job. She took so much time and care into making the set even and polished, and the artwork couldn't have been more perfect. It was a bit pricey, but in my opinion it was worth it, they are exactly what I wanted. Everyone working there were very communicative and I really appreciated their transparency, especially in their pricing. I really appreciated how I was given an exact price for my set before we started, after talking about what I wanted to get done (patterns, colors, etc.) I'm so pleased with my experience and I have not been able to stop staring at my nails since I left the salon! Thank you so much!

    They used every excuse to pretend this abnormally thick gel was normal and forced me to pay to remove the mess they created!

Overall,…read moreI'd say service is usually great, timing is valued, and gel manicures are reasonably priced. I almost always get a french ombre gel manicure. Up until last year, I could have the manicure done by anyone at Nails 2000. Most recently, my gel manicures have been a hit or miss. If I don't specifically request for someone I've had before, then I could risk having a very faint ombre design or worse - polish not lasting for even a day. The male nail techs are usually great on both manicures and pedicures (Alex, Michael for pedi). Other nail techs I'd recommend from experience are Helen and Mary.

The total came to $76, which I found outrageous for just changing the polish. When I questioned the receptionist about the price, she tried to normalize paying almost $80 for something that should be straightforward. It felt like there was no respect for the value of my dollar, and I was basically brushed off as if this was completely normal. What made it worse was the attitude and service. The nail technician seemed visibly unhappy about having to help me, and although I couldn't understand the language spoken, it was clear there was some kind of dispute about taking my appointment. She was quite rough with my hands and didn't show any care or professionalism. To add to that, the salon itself felt outdated and not well-maintained, which didn't help the overall impression. I've lived in the area for over a decade and had never visited before, and now I can see why. It's definitely not a place I'd want to return to for any nail services, especially given the high price and the poor customer care. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this salon, and I won't be coming back. Update-- looking through reviews to see if other's had experience similar and came across this photo warning of nail tech (sharing) --same nail tech -- rude, rough, lumpy thick polish application, micro aggressive -- her energy was absolutely draining.
