Inside
Jackie T.

This is my 3rd visit to and I have to say this is probably one of my favorite nail places to go to. The girls who work here are so nice and professional. The inside is always nice snd clean. It's also spacious and bright. Loved how they decorated the inside for CNY. I got a pedicure and the goodbye callus, Lani is the person I got and she did a good job, good attention to detail. Thank you SK Nail Spa for your hospitality. Will definitely be seeing you gals soon.

I loved my nails done by Vicky( Uyencore). I have been following her over the past ten years now. She is so good at what she does. Her work ethic is by far the best I have ever done with someone else. I have been getting my nails done with her ever since I meet her, way back in Encinitas. Her work has always been amazing!Outstanding! Wherever she will be I will definitely continue to support her. Vicky is kind, friendly and very sweet person. I highly recommend booking with her. You won't forget her afterwards, for sure! Top notch!!!

I had Kim do gel X nails and she did a wonderful job!! I absolutely love the color and shape and she always checked in to make sure I liked what she was doing. She was also super gentle and kind. Thank you so much!!

Linh is an amazing technician and artist! She is always efficient and precise with my sets. I showed her a picture of the nails I wanted and she was able to replicate them beautifully. Linh's customer service is impeccable and she always makes me feel welcome. I am so happy I found Linh. I love coming to SK nail because it's easy to book online and the shop is always clean.

Terrible experience. I've been here a few times because it is right near where I live, but never again. Every time I go I get numerous cuts on my cuticles and always leave bleeding. This most recent time, however, I was unhappy with my manicure. I did not say anything in the salon because I honestly did not realize -- but once I got home, 5 minutes later, I saw how bad it was. Photo attached vs reference photo. To give them benefit of the doubt, I did ask for them to be shorter and I asked for the background color to be different, so I knew they would look different. But, the nails were not shaped at all, the polka dots were extremely blobby, and I left bleeding and in pain. I called them immediately and asked for a PARTIAL refund and they denied me. They said I can come back in and get them fixed, but I did not have the time, nor did I want to go there again. Bad experience, I will not return and I will not recommend to anyone again.

I am very critical of my nails and mindful of customer service since I've been getting my nails done for nearly two decades & have always gotten long nails with elaborate designs. I moved to this area 2.5 years ago and have been going here for about 2 years. Thus far, I can strongly recommend Linh who provided this beautiful Fall set with Pumpkin designs. I appreciate Linh because of her professional recommendations. They are always genuine and based on your individual needs and desires. She recommended I try gel X months ago despite my unwavering loyalty to acrylic for years. She suggested this based on my needs at the time and I am glad I took her advice. I have had gel X ever since and I will only do acrylic for particular reasons as needed. Linh is also great with designs, and these pumpkin nails are hands down my favorite. I can also recommend Summer, who did these long French tip nails in pastel colors. I received overwhelming complements on these nails everywhere I went. These nails also lasted well over a month without breaking, cracking, or lifting which is big for me (long nail girlies know). My recommendations are based on quality of service overall, not just the nail designs. I am big on customer service so it's not enough to just do a good job on the nails. Both Linh and Summer have provided great work product and customer service overall. I highly recommend.

I was very excited to go here! The remotes looked good and supposedly they serve you champagne or wine while v getting your service. I was offered water or soda Dianne did my pedicure and she was Great! Anne did my manicure. I was bummed that the next day my nail polish was coming off and cracking. I wasn't able to go back the next day which was Thursday as my husband was at the IRS Conference. So I went back on Friday morning first thing to have my nails repainted . I explained what happened and I guess they have a 7 day policy for Gel only. Regular polish has no warranty once you leave their shop.( In all my years, getting my nails done, I've never had nail polish crack or fall off the next day.) I was informed it would cost me $12 to have them repaint my nails. I told them I didn't want the same polish and only wanted clear so if it peels you can't see it. They ended up not charging me, but the vibe from all the ladies, but one was very uncomfortable, as if I did something wrong. I will not return here ever!

Give & take

This was my third visit -- and definitely my last. I had hoped things would improve, but instead, the experience just kept getting worse. Several of the staff were openly rude, chatting in Vietnamese and clearly hoping customers wouldn't understand. The attitude was thick in the air -- dismissive, unprofessional, and made the entire visit uncomfortable. Thankfully, Lindsey was wonderful -- kind, attentive, and truly professional. There are a few others like her who genuinely care about their clients, but the rest? Unfortunately, rotten to the core. Their behavior overshadows the good ones and ruins what could be a decent salon. I tipped Lindsey $20 because she earned it with her care and skill. The rest didn't deserve a dime. Until management cleans house and restores some respect for their customers, I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

Hard gel Manicure

Got at amazing hard gel manicure with Kim! She freehanded the design and understood exactly what I wanted. Kim has the best service, constantly checking in to make sure you like your design which is so important! I recommend her to everyone and I will be back :)

Most recent set!

I never used to get my nails done on a regular basis. It always felt like more of a special occasion thing for me. But one day almost a year ago, I came here for a pedicure and have not stopped since! I absolutely adore this place. I always recommend SK Nail Spa to everyone who compliments my nails, and I've brought several of my friends and family in for a visit. Every experience has been nothing but pleasant, and every artist has been nothing but kind and attentive of the service they are providing. All the pictures I've attached have been done by Linh. She's truly such a talented nail tech, and overall, just an amazing person. Every time I come in for an appointment, I leave with such a boost of confidence! Linh has such a good eye for detail and always makes my nails look better than what I was hoping for. I cannot recommend this place enough! Vicky and Nina have also done my pedicures, amongst a few others, and it's always apparent the level of care they put into their work. If you're lucky enough to live close by, book an appointment!! You don't know what you're missing!

French gel x

Honestly very disappointed in their recent service. I came here and wanted regular gel nail polish cherry wine color. The lady doing my nail was extremely rude, rolled her eyes when I asked to try other red colors. My friend was sitting next to me and her lady just walked away without saying anything in the middle of doing her nails. Really rude and safe to say I won't be back.

Sorry it's so gross

Highly highly highly recommend sugaring and especially this studio if you've never tried sugaring…read morebefore. I used to wax with regular wax and one time I tried hard wax and had a really bad reaction. I had heard of sugaring, but had never tried it. I live in Bankers Hill and I saw there was a sugaring studio called La Di Da Sugaring. I made an appointment to give it a shot and I absolutely loved it and would never go back to any other kind of wax. I used to get ingrown hair with regular waxing and since starting sugaring, I have never had any ingrown hairs or red bumps. I now recommend sugaring to everyone. This review is for Isabella. Isabella is detailed-oriented, super kind, and I love our chats when I visit. Thank you, Isabella, for making my visits comfortable and welcoming. No complaints about this studio. The only thing I would mention is that parking is hard to find, so if you live close by you should walk there.

This place is great, and a review is long overdue. I've been coming here for sugaring for 3+ years…read moreand all the girls are great which I appreciate given I have a busy schedule and can rarely book with the same person each time. The owner Lisa is also great with making sure her customers are happy. The studio is kept very clean and tidy. Parking is typically fairly easy as well. Would highly recommend checking this place out, I've tried several other sugaring places in SD and this one is by far the nicest and the least painful.

I've been coming here to get my eyebrows threaded since moving to the San Diego area. I go to…read moreeither Saira or Afsani ..unfortunately when i just went to a random person that was free, they took too much off my eyebrow. Had to take some time to grow back but i learned to stick with who i am comfortable with. Everyone working there always seem pleasant and they are always busy! There is street parking and also a garage with limited free spots but depending on the time you go, it may be full because they share it with the other businesses in that small strip. Ive been to the other location in carmel mountain but i prefer this location better.

I've been coming to Beauty by Dolly since 2017, and honestly no one else compares. I've tried a few…read moreother threading places after moving to a different part of San Diego, but nothing has matched the quality here. I recently came back after about 6 months of not getting my eyebrows done and was a little nervous it would hurt, but it really didn't. I don't know if it's their technique or the type of thread they use, but it's noticeably less painful than other places I've tried. That alone makes such a big difference. They always do an amazing job shaping my brows, and I leave happy every time. It's one of those places where you know you're in good hands. At this point, I'm done experimenting with other spots, I'll be sticking with Beauty by Dolly from now on. Highly recommend if you're looking for consistent, quality eyebrow threading.
