Worst experience I have ever had at a nail salon. I don't think the lady had ever done nails before. She was so slow and filed my nails down so far. They are paper thin now. I would not recommend this place to anyone. read more

I was recently at Red Nails for a pedicure and regular manicure. Pedicure was good, but the manicure massage lasted about one minute total and she did a terrible job. Even so, I was going to tip her because the pedicure was decent. When it came time to pay, I asked if I could add tip to my credit card payment. She responded by smacking my wallet aside and pointing to the tip policy written on the counter (which I had not noticed). Major attitude. Won't be going back. read more

Absolutely the worst pedicure I've ever gotten. I may as well have just painted my toenails myself and not done anything else to my feet. Heels are still rough. Callouses are still there. So disappointed. I walked in. Every single pedicure station, and every single manicure station was filled. They told me to wait just a minute. After about five minutes, I decided that the whole ambience felt crowded and uncomfortable, so I left. But as I was walking to my car, Hellen ran after me. " Come back! We have room for you. We are ready. You come back!" So I decided to come back, since I only had one hour and didn't want to go find another place. She sat me at the last station in the room, which felt a bit more secluded, so that was good. But she soaked my feet in water for at least 20 minutes and left me there, acting like someone would be right with me. It felt deceiving. Finally, someone else came. Once again, I told the new person that I have one hour. She was pleasant, but the entire time she was looking around the room, completely distracted. What was she doing? Was she waiting for her next client? I couldn't figure it out. She seemed so bored. I don't blame her, but still. Overall, the pedicure was not good. Even though I asked for my calluses to be worked on, she didn't do that. She lightly brushed something over them one time, but that was it -- even after I reminded her that I needed that done, too. Just one light brush over the top. And then suddenly it was over and she gave me these lame little slip ons and told me I was done. "How long does this take to dry?" I asked her. "One hour", she told me. One hour? None of this made sense. She sent me out the door with these lame floppy slip on shoes and tissue between my toes. I'm supposed to be somewhere right now, but I have to sit in my car, unsure how long the drying takes. Two toes are already smudged. Is this normal, pushing a client out the door before anything is dry? Not going back to Red Nails. read more

Amazing experience at Red Nails! They did a beautiful job and were so quick--I was done in an hour. Professional, clean, and super talented. Highly recommend if you're on a schedule but still want perfect nails! read more

My daughter and I went for a pedicure last Tuesday morning. It was a great experience, both of our nail technicians were kind and skilled. The massage chairs and friendly service were just what we needed. I recommend the #3 pedicure, it's $62 and worth every penny. We left in a great mood with beautiful callus free feet, we will definitely be back again. read more

Went in for a pedicure today and as usual excellent service and a beautiful job on my toes! The gal even fixed the thumbnail I slammed in my car door that looked horrible and was growing back weird with half the nail hanging on. Thanks for the great job today. Those gals do such a great service! And I loved being recognized when I walked in the door even though it had been months since my last visit! read more

Went here for my first time last weekend with my mom for a pedicure and got a manicure as well. They were super busy so I'm glad I called ahead. They have a tone of color choices in both regular polish and gel. Beautifully decorated inside. Clean and they do a good job! Prices are also good! Will definitely go back. read more

Every time I have been here the staff is super friendly & efficient. Highly recommend!

i love coming here, it's clean, helen & all the techs i've had before are always super sweet and i personally feel like they're attentive if you want something specific and bring it to their attention. of course sometimes it's busy, it's a great nail salon i'd just plan ahead with an appointment :) read more

Clean and nice people. I rec Kelly or Dennis for dip and pedicures. They make the dip look perfect (not too thick)!!

Red nails has such a clean and inviting atmosphere! They do the best pedi's in town and all the staff is wonderful. Highly recommend!

I've been going here for a few months and it was always a great experience, until recently. My last 2 visits have been subpar and here is why. 1) I got my nails done and was looking to achieve that trendy "milky white" look, but it was very sheer and didn't have any color at all. So he had to put white on top. It was very bumpy and not smooth. Usually I can get over it but I wasn't happy bc it was for an engagement photoshoot and they looked bad. 2) I just went today and wanted to try cat eye gel for the first time. I'll attach photos here. This is what I asked for (circled) and then this is what they look like. The lady was nice and kept saying sorry because even she knew they didn't look right. Yet I still had to pay $45 for the service even though I didn't get what I asked for at all. The prices here are decent compared to other salons, but now I'm thinking it's more worth while to pay the extra couple bucks to actually receive what I ask for. This will be my last time at Red Nails. So sad it didn't work out. read more

We were able to get last minute reservations for three on a Saturday afternoon. Went for the maximum pedicure, as a birthday gift for a first timer. They made "Dad" feel very comfortable and pampered. Very fun experience. I like how my gel pedicure turned out, it's lasting a long time and still looks great. My smooth feet are ready for summer sandals!!! read more

I got my nails done a week or more ago. I have always been satisfied and happy with what I have had done here in the last 5 years on and off. This last time was the last time. I do dip on my natural nails and have always had female techs and Dennis do my nails and was happy. I had a different male tech who did not introduce himself, so I don't know his name. However, I hope he receives more training from Dennis or other female techs. He was extremely rough. He filed my nails so aggressively on the sides, he made me bleed in multiple spots only with a manual file, not even an electric nail drill. He put so much pressure and basically sawed into skin instead of filing. The shape that was created by side sawing has left odd regrowth in one week. I will include pictures. I was tempted to pull my hands back and walk out so many times. I have a high pain tolerance but this aggressive side sawing did make me bleed in two places. As well as resulted in one (so far) painful ingrown on my thumb. He took over an hour and a half... I have had dip done on the natural nail length in an hour or less and been satisfied/ happy with results. The whole time I was thinking he should have someone saw file the sides of his nails and skin for way too long and see how he feels... not good I'd assume. I don't leave reviews but this was just so disappointing. Especially, after I have had so many positive experiences here. If you go I would recommend any female tech or Dennis (who is super friendly and has a great sense of humor)... if you want a positive experience. read more

Review COVID-19 details for those wondering: It took a few days to get an appointment, but I was able to visit on 6/23. There was a table out front with clean pens, a waiver to sign, a space for used pens, and hand sanitizer. The person I made the appointment with, Thy, came out to greet me, and took my touchless temperature before entering the salon. I was then asked to wash my hands, be sure to keep my mask on, and sit down in my designated chair behind a plastic barrier. They are only offering some services, but I was able to get a pedicure and SNS manicure no issues. If you're going to rip through their salon complaining about guidelines and masks and other privileged issues, this isn't the spot for you. The entire staff was extremely welcoming and patient as the customers stumbled through all the requirements. I can't recommend them enough, especially Thy. She is so personable and friendly, and has remembered my name since day 1. So happy they're back open, and I hope everyone remains patient and friendly! read more

Everyone was very nice and it was very clean inside. I asked for crescent moons designs and when the lady who was doing my pedicure was having a hard time with it another lady came over and did the design. This is by far the nicest my nails have ever looked. Could not be more happy with them. Definitely going to go back! read more

I've been coming here for years with my mom since I was about 6. I'm almost 18 now, and they have never once given me a manicure/pedicure I didn't love. The staff there are so welcoming and sweet and take the absolute best care of you from start to finish. Just recently, I went there to get my nails done for my senior prom. Cindy went over and above to make my nails as pretty and perfect as possible because she knew how important the day was for me. That was quite possibly the best manicure I've ever gotten. I will always refer Red Nails to anyone that asks. read more

Red Nails - My amazing ombré manicure, by Cindy - Nail Salons Near Me - Auburn, California

I decided to stop in after hitting the slopes, and I have to say one of the best pedicures I've ever gotten...I did the $55 option and the $25 manicure. My feet were already in a bit of pain from the ski boots, but after an hour of just sitting, soaking, and the massage, along with everything else that went with the service, I'm happy to report I have "happy feet." This was a referral from Airbnb host Amy Houston, and I highly recommend Red Nails! It was the end of the day, so I got to watch the disinfecting process that they did, which was very detailed. I'm here through mid-May, and I will be back again before I leave! read more

Red Nails - They burned my eyelid - Nail Salons Near Me - Auburn, California

Unfortunately I do not have a good review. I have been there every 3 weeks for the past year. Last time was the last time! If I have an appointment I have absolutely no intention of not being helped for 45 minutes after my appointment should have started. There is a reason people make appointments. Since they take walk ins as well...the walk ins need to be managed as far as time goes. Not a person with an appointment. My time is valuable as well read more

I still Love this relaxing facility! Every one is professional, accommodating, and fast. Cosy and extremely clean!

Rule Number One: don't screw up the brows. This place used to be our go to for nails, waxing, everything. They were inexpensive, they weren't pushy and they remembered us. I went there back in April to get my nails done. I thought they closed later but they said they could still do a mani/pedi for my sister and I. IT WAS SO BAD. Never even touched my cuticles. So we decided no more nails, just waxing... Then today they screwed up so bad we won't be back ever. (See picture) The problem is they rush EVERYTHING & jut don't care anymore. You've let us down to many times red nails. Bye. read more

I absolutely love this place! I have tried about all the nail salons in Auburn and I always seem to like this one more. I love the cleanliness of this salon, fresh sterilized tools for every person (how it should be). I usually get a acrylic full set done by Dennis. He is very professional, likes to joke around and talk to you as well, asks you constantly about how you feel about your nails, all in all he is a great nail tech! For pedicures I usually lean towards Lynne, she is new and younger but very precise when it comes to her work. Not the most talkative, but it's nice when you want to relax in the massage chairs. She takes her time to make sure the work is perfect. The other day I got a pedicure from her, it was amazing! I even asked for a flower design on both toes and she definitely succeeded my expectations. Red Nails is my go to nail salon, I love it! read more

I used to get my nails done by Helen, but I don't know what happened to her but she did me really bad the last 3 times I went. I gave her many chances because I thought that she had a bad day but , really? (no it's her. )She got my cuticles bleeding, she drilled me so hard that my nail beds hurts for 3 days, and she looked at me crazy when I said "OUCh "....and spoke her own language to the young girl besides her. Very rude, and not very good at all! I will never return to red nails. Please don't delete my review. People need to know this. It's not acceptable. read more
