    I got a full set a few days ago and had the worst experience ever. I NEVER write reviews, but my time and money spent there was such a waste that I just have to inform others. I had my nails done by an older woman with glasses. Everything in the beginning was fine. She shaped and filed my nails the way I asked. But, when I asked her for french tip, she showed me one nail and the white tip was too thick. I kindly asked her if she can please make it thinner. She tried a second time and it looked exactly the same, so I asked her kindly a second time if it can be a smidge thinner. She didn't say anything and proceeded to do the rest of my nails. She made the white french tips go straight across my nail instead of curved like they normally look, so I asked her if she can please make them a little more curved on the sides. She raised her voice and said she can't do that anymore because I asked her to make the tip thin, and now it was too thin to make it curved. I just said okay, knowing that it's very possible to do it the correct way. She started complaining about it to her colleagues because she clearly kept saying the word "curve". In addition to that, there were two other workers watching her do my nails the ENTIRE time talking and laughing with her remarks. Towards the end of my appointment she put the top coat and showed me my nails and asked if it was fine before putting them in to dry, at this point I was irritated and just said yes they're fine but then she takes my hand and shows me closer to my face and says "no see them before they dry, see them first" in a very rude way. Her colleague behind her begins to laugh. Once she was done she asked me to go wash my hands, and I did without saying a word. I'm sure everyone caught on that I was clearly upset by my face. One other lady asked me if everything was alright. I said yes just so I can hurry up and leave. I paid over $60 for the worst full set I've ever received. Her work is so sloppy and lazy. The polish is messy and uneven. Now I'm stuck with these acrylics until I can have them removed. Never coming back or referring anyone here.

    I visited this establishment a few weeks ago with a friend to receive a pedicure. Upon entering, I was promptly greeted by Calvin and seated. The salon's exceptional cleanliness and the kindness and friendliness of the staff were immediately noticeable. Tien provided outstanding service, expertly attending to my feet while frequently checking on my comfort and satisfaction with the temperature of the water and my chosen nail color. I never felt rushed or inconvenienced. When I needed a change to my nail color, which had been incorrectly done at another salon, Vicky skillfully accommodated my request, delivering exactly what I wanted and leaving me feeling satisfied and pleased. I will definitely return for future services.

    Amazing experience! Employees are all kind and even though I had to wait Im glad I did because my nails look beautiful! I will totally recommend to give them a try, the lady who did my pedicure took her time and was gentle. I will be going back again

    Calvin did an amazing job with my nails. I love how he shaped them and made them look very natural. I did a hard gel fill as a walk in and they sat me down very quickly. Staff were very friendly, the place was clean and well kept. And to top it off the prices are very reasonable! Will definitely be coming back as a repeat customer.

    Had such a great experience here! Everyone was super welcoming, friendly and understanding! Calvin did my nails and I love them! Will come again! Love it!!

    I had a gel builder done here by Calvin.

    Found a Gem! A bit dated, but service was excellent. I called, no answer, but received a text…read morealmost immediately asking what I needed and quickly scheduled our appointment. The pedicure is probably one of the best I have had in Menifee. Very detailed with cuticles and the nail shaping. Great massage, thorough, all the things. My daughter got acrylics and they look so good!! They are a master of their craft in the designs on nails, however he was a bit rough with the sanding and cuticles and didn't clean out under the nails very well after shaping. Left her bleeding a couple of times, and rough with the alcohol to clean after. We will be going back, will just give heads up to be more gentle with my daughter for future acrylics.

The good news is they didn't cut me at all during my service, which is always a huge plus at a nail salon. I did feel like the shaping on my nails was a little off and not exactly what I wanted, but it wasn't terrible. The pricing was also a bit high in my opinion -- $85 for a full set in Menifee feels a little pricey. Overall, it was an okay experience. I might go back and give them another try.

I called in the morning and made an appointment for later that day. We arrived about 20 minutes early, and she was able to take my granddaughter within five minutes. I like that we could pay for the service and tip with Zelle or credit card without penalty of charging a fee for using a credit card. They have a sign-in tablet to earn points. I think they are fair with their pricing. The salon is clean. The technicians speak Vietnamese, but communicate in English as well. I would have given a five-star review, except I observed that a nail technician dropped her nail/cuticle clippers on the floor and picked them up with her gloved hand and did not change her gloves or wash her hands, nor did she sanitize the instrument or place it in a soiled container, but proceeded to use it on her client. I am a State Board Licensed Cosmetologist, and licensed to work as a Manicurist. When it comes to safety and sanitation, if she were taking an exam to get her Manicurist License - that is an automatic fail. I plan to take my granddaughter back to Nail Me Lounge, and although I do not live in the area, perhaps when I am in town, I will get my nails done there next time, as well.

    After observing serious sanitation issues at numerous nail salons in the Menifee area for 10 years,…read moreI decided to put my foot down and find a "real" nail salon. Thrilled to have found Letting Go in early March when Lorraine put me on a waiting list and got me in on a Friday when another customer cancelled. Perfect timing, too, because it was just a few days prior to me and my mother putting ourselves on "house arrest" because of the C-Virus scare. Although Lorraine is a "nail artist," I told her I only wanted something similar to what I have been doing a long time; purple base with glitter. I asked her, don't you have samples you can show me from a bottle? She says, "We don't do it that way here. I custom-make your gel colour and glitter to your specifications." I showed her some pix of my nails from the other salon, and she used that as a starting point. Now that I trust her implicitly, I will likely let her come up with her own purple colour and glitter ideas next time. It is nearly a month since I had the work done and only ONE nail is starting to chip so far. I hope I can hold out until my house arrest is over, like another month, by clipping the nails carefully. This is a small intimate salon, not crowded with people since is appointment only. Unlike most other salons, the technicians are not rushing, so plan extra time for this type of quality. Also, be prepared to pay more money here than at an assembly line salon, but it is worth every penny of it. (My last nail shop couldn't even get the colours straight cuz the samples were often in the wrong spot with the wrong number). That can't happen here because there are no samples with numbers! I can't wait to go back for my hands and feet, hopefully by late May!

    ***below was my initial review of letting go salon. I will say Lorraine's willingness to work with…read moreme and make this right was outstanding and exceeded my expectations by far. You can tell she really values her work and reputation which is respectable**** Lorraine asked me to call her an hour before my appointment to see how she was doing on time. She said i was good to come in at 7. Rushed over from work and wasn't seen until 7:40!! She checked the steelers score game, made a phone call, and worked on other customers nails while working with me. As you can see in the photos my fingers are inflamed and cut up. I showed her a photo of ombre nails with one rose gold marble nail. I have no problem with a manicurist saying they cant do a certain design but she seemed confident about it and this is how it came out! 3 streaks of paint and some glitter. She told me she couldn't do the massage thats usually included cause her fingers hurt but still charged the same price. You can also expect to be rushed out with crooked nails and gunk stuck under your fingernails
