Stephy H.

Super nice staff. Place was pretty empty when I did a walk in on Wednesday around 4pm. $30 for basic pedicure. Free alcohol drinks!!! 1-2 drinks per person max. This place would be fun to have a bridal event or bday. They did a nice job on my toes.

SO UGLY OMG

So my friend and I came here once before, probably 3 weeks ago or so. She usually gets a full set and I get a gel manicure, I pick at my cuticles so it's mostly for the manicure. Last time we came her set was super pretty and they did a great job on mine too. We went again yesterday and omg. The lady offered me a hard gel add on for $10 and I added paraffin wax to my pedicure for $5. It took over 2 HOURS and just everything looks hideous. When we got back from the salon we could really see how everything looked. I paid $110 total, I added an eyebrow wax for $15. Honestly the eyebrow wax was the only thing that was good. She barely touched my cuticles and all the staff were standing around the two of us speaking another language super loud and pointing at us. My regular ass gel manicure was over $50.. wtf? My friend paid over $150!! Just for a pedicure and fill. All the pretty pictures on here must be from the old owners. Never ever ever again lol.

Started recently coming here. Its always hard when you've had your OG nail tech for 5+ years. I love the way peter does nails there always so nice and sleek!

Be prepared to have someone not listen to what you ask for. Be prepared to be offered all kinds of upgrades you don't want. Be prepared to disinfect all the cuts you are going to get. Other than them covering the spa pedicure bowls; all other tools, towels and surfaces of this salon are dirty. Never coming back. I asked for a gel manicure and somehow got talked into powder acrylic. I told her I wanted short round nails. I'm leaving with dinosaur point claws. With 3 cuts on my fingers and one on my big toe.

Cracks and chips next morning.

I've been to Royal Nail Salon in Hayward three times since moving to the area, and I regret it each time. The service is mediocre, and the staff isn't friendly. Unfortunately, the quality is poor--both gel and regular polish chipped within a day. I had a manicure done yesterday, and it already looks terrible this morning. Save your money and look elsewhere! Gave two stars due to convenience and availability to get serviced.

Spa Service Pedicure - $25

Their pedicures are what I continue to come back for every month! I get their most basic pedicure service and leave satisfied every time. The nail techs shape my nails nicely and color application is perfect so that every pedicure lasts about 4 weeks, and I am not careful with my toes at all. The best part is the superb foot massage of the pedicure - please continue to keep up this level and length of foot massage! It is what sets them apart and keeps me coming back + referring my friends! The interior is spacious and clean. They offer you refreshments and snacks - stellar customer service! I love that they have a menu of their services and do not try and up sell you. Their color selection is quite extensive as well. A stamp card is a great icing on top. Will continue to visit for my monthly pedicures!

Day after service

They take walk-ins but it's best to call ahead. Their staffing is not back to pre pandemic level so you may need to wait a bit either way. I went in for a regular shellac mani and regular pedi. Very happy with the quality of work from Mei. No sneaky up sell on the service.

I like this place and I come in when I am able to but it is extremely difficult almost in possible to schedule an appointment I think they screen their calls when ever I call from my work phone which has a 415 # nobody answers when I am finally able to call on my personal phone which has a 510 area code they answer I'm not sure the reason behind this so I guess it best to just walk in & take the risk beside this their service is pretty good

New nail bar in Hayward with a dash of YES and a dash of SPARKLE and a dash of awesome customer service. If you remember Michael from Megan's nails... well here he is! He and the crew opened a bigger, better and beautiful nail salon. Customer service all the way around. With no appt I walked in and had a brief wait- maybe 10min tops. Was offered a drink while waiting and chose my polish. Jumped in the chair and the pedi was amazing. Treats, massage, hot stone ... it was great! Location- on the corner of Foothill / B St. Parking- street or parking garage across the street Price- average, fair Tip- dont forget to get your stamp card Michael and team-Congrats on the new shop!

This is a great place for a pedicure. This salon is big and very clean!!!! There is no chemical smell bc the salon is so large. They have a lot of new high tech chairs for pedis. There is also a huge bar for manis with built in drying stations. What really sets this place apart from others is their customer service. Michael and Sara are very friendly and attentive. They check and see how you're doing and offer snacks and drinks (they have a full bar and wide variety of snacks ). NGL I got a little buzzed there haha. The rest of their staff is also very friendly and listen to your requests. They really care about making you feel welcome. I got a pedicure from Jessica. She was gentle but did a good job cleaning my nails and big calluses. She also provided a really long massage. I would rate them higher but they are currently still looking for some nail techs that can do the fancier designs. PS they give stamp cards

Update to the update Sarah sucks don't let her do your nails. She has bad attitude after going back for her to fix the broken nail which broke only after one week of getting them freshly done. Twice!! Been at least 2 or 3 years since I've been there.

Jocelyn R.

I had to remove the photo of the nails I found online to show them what I wanted, because these fools were using it as if it was their own work shows how money hungry people are instead of actually learning how to do good work themselves. Book with Vivian on Instagram @Toptennailshayward don't waste your money on a place that can't do a simple V tip

My emotions picked BLOOD RED!

You would need to call them. Services vary from what you need to get done but I can tell you they do a great job!

I would like to make a appointment for Saturday one mail broke but it's only been one day?

It would best to call ahead as walk ins may not be possible due to the volume of clients they are seeing.

Do you guys have private parking?

Where is the best place to park?

This is a really great place to get your services done. Appointments are easy to make - especially…read moreon the app and they don't have strict cancellation fees. They have a lot of flexibility with rescheduling appointments. Service is great and I've never waited more than 5 minutes for my service. Brenda is the best. Everything is quick and relatively painless! I'm in and out in 10 minutes.

After 15 years as a customer at the Castro Valley location, I'm incredibly disappointed with this…read moreexperience. I arrived at the Village parking lot on time, not anticipating how difficult parking would be, especially with all the construction. After spending nearly 10 minutes searching for a spot, I finally parked a few lots away near Safeway and rushed in, apologizing for the delay. The receptionist told me I had missed the 10-minute grace period. When I showed her my phone to prove I was still within the 10 minutes, she still refused my appointment and told me I could wait an hour. What in the world? The whole point of a 10-minute grace period is that you can keep your appointment if you arrive within that window! I've waited over 20 minutes for appointments at this location plenty of times. I had arranged childcare specifically to make this appointment, and the lack of courtesy and flexibility was incredibly frustrating especially considering the construction. Before leaving this review, I asked a manager to contact me and left a message. Nearly two weeks later, I still haven't heard a word. After 15 years of loyalty, this is how customers are treated? I won't be returning and will be sharing my experience with friends. There are plenty of other locations that deserve my business.

I follow Dahila wherever she goes every since she came into my life. The sweeeetest gal you will…read moreever meet plus she is extremely professional and experienced. It doesn't get better than this. Tops it off that she's beautiful inside and out, skillful, and just the absolutely best esthetician that you can find in the area. The studio itself so chic and modern, but most importantly of all, it's CLEAN. That is so important. Clean and sanitize is key here. It always smells amazing inside, not dirty not like anything burning or melting. Love her playlist because it gives you something distracting when you're getting hair ripped off your fragile body parts. You can book appointments online and see her work on her Instagram, or you can take my word for it because she's simply amazing. Hard wax gets everything done and she's so detail oriented. My wax queen, but best of all, she's the TWEEZE QUEEN. She gets all the ingrowns and the hair that breaks off. She teaches you post care and does her best to ensure that she gets all the hair. No rush at all and I never feel pain. The wax is amazing and I see a difference in how the hair grows back. She uses two different types of hard wax on me just because my hair grows differently. She applies great pressure, especially on my sensitive spots. Best of all, she always remembers you from the last session and makes a huge effort to stay consistent. I can't speak highly enough of her. She does amazing work and my Brazilians are always A1. I see her religiously every four weeks and she doesn't even try to up sell you things or make you come sooner. She really does care about her patients. Parking is easy, there's a lot right behind the building and it's easy to find. She knows when you arrive so if the shades are drawn, she's probably with another customer at the moment. But she'll pop her head out and acknowledge that you're there. She takes cash and square- but I always believe if you can cash her out do it. Got to support out go-getters and cheers to entrepreneurs.

This place is very welcoming and clean. I have been going to Monique for waxing for over a year…read more She is judgment-free and very professional. I feel as if my comfort is her top priority. I highly recommend checking this place out and booking an appointment. They use hard wax...so none of the soft wax with cloth strips that hurts like no other on your sensitive areas. Plus side: easy access from the 580 freeway and plenty of free parking.
