    One half of my Halloween nails!

    Sylvia is an artist! I've been a longtime customer.. would never consider any other nail technician.

    I recently started getting my nails done after not having the time to do them myself. So far, i've been here twice and love it ! Located in the same shopping center as Save Mart, you'll find Sylvia's nail shop! Sylvia herself is always at the very first station to your left and knows her regulars by name. Even though i've only been here twice, Sylvia and her nail techs know me and it's a nice feeling knowing everyone here is sooo accommodating! The prices here are very reasonable and the techs do a great job at listening to what the customer wants. The only male who works here seems to do a great job at coffin nails . A basic manicure is $10 and a pedicure is $22 which is not bad at all. They also offer eyebrow waxing for $7, if i remember correctly . It's cash only so don't forget. You can always get cash next door at Save Mart if you forget though! Treat yourself, you wont regret it :)

    I have been going to Sylvia for over 20 years; she is the best! I highly recommend her. Anything I have ever requested, she has nailed. The picture shown is pink and white ombre.

    Great work! Pretty nails, comfy chairs, great prices!! I brought in my own color and asked for artwork. Got a design that exceeded my expectations! Seafoam and teal sparkles for end of summer!! Great A/C!

    I have been coming to Sylvia's nails for a decade now and I must say they are one of the best hands down. Howard and Sylvia are quick and precise with what they do. Donna is sweet as can be and makes sure you are happy with your nails. I would definitely recommend them.

    Beautiful gel manicure by Howard! So affordable, friendly and clean! Sylvia, Howard and Donna are the best! I would highly recommend them and for pedicures too.

    Everyone who works here is very nice and knows how to make you feel welcome. I've been going here for the last 3-4 years and am never disappointed when I leave. Attached a photo of the Sylvia did today and I'm in love.

    Careful!

    Negative stars I walked in, not one customer inside. Great, they'll be happy to see me I thought. Well, the Lady to the left was falling asleep to her tablet movie. I don't blame her, the AC must have been set on 85F. A couple more technicians were present and then the discussion started who was going to give me a pedicure. I was instructed numerous times to pick a color. I'm trying, I'm trying geez...So I get comfortable in my chair WITHOUT a plastic liner to be pampered by a technician NOT wearing gloves. Alrighty then... I relax..look around and OH NOOOOO, the Lady is shaving my heel with a razor blade on a stick also known as CREDO BLADE. These tools are illegal and dangerous. I immediately told her to stop and as I'm looking to my right, there is another victim getting her heels shaved... WOW! I'm sure they don't change out the blades or sanitize these tools. The rest of the pedicure went fine. When it was time to pay my Lady stands next to me with her hand open I said I meet you at the register. Oh no, CASH ONLY. NO register NO credit cards.. how do they keep track of their sales or taxes? Just sayin'

    I show them a picture and what I received was not it. Although the women who did them was very sweet, it just wasn't what I pictured it to come out as.

    I recently moved to sac and needed a new nail place and i absolutely love Sylvia's Nails, the whole staff is so sweet and i got my nails done by Lisa who did an amazing job and really took her time and my nails turned out beautiful! The Owner Sylvia is also very sweet and I got a pedicure as well which turned out amazing! very relaxing shop, can't wait to go back!

    I love it here! It's my first time here and Sylvia and Howard are so welcoming and funny. They did a great job in taking in consideration and time with what I wanted. They also gave me so much information and advice about my nails and why my other nails from a different salon didn't last long. I will be coming back here from now on! Updated (5/21/18) I got my nails done on April 8th and they lasted SUPER long! I haven't gone in for a fill since I've been busy, but I haven't gotten any breaks or major chips(only one gem came off). The second picture is from May 12th, and as of today they started to break off. Overall I'm still happy with the look, service, and quality.

    I love coming here to see Kim. The vibes are immaculate (Scroll to see THE BEST 4th of July set…read moreEVER). She goes out of her way to make me comfortable sometimes giving me a mask to block acrylic dust. She's so patient with me picking designs, re-doing things if I change my mind, finding perfect color matches. I've actually fallen asleep multiple times on accident because she's not heavy handed & she doesn't care. I'll leave with Pinterest worthy nails every time. They offer complimentary beverages & have great prices for ALL services. I've been coming here for almost a year and they're always super accommodating. I sometimes will come in not knowing what designs I want and they figure it out every time so I don't have to worry. The shape and length are always perfect as well. I've never had a set that didn't get compliments. I forgot to mention Kim always fits me in when she can. She's truly a saint fitting me in when I'm sleepy and indecisive /unprepared. I'm so grateful.

    I would not recommend coming here for a pedicure. We came in for two pedicures, it was regular…read morepolish and the entire service felt rushed. When the nail tech put lotion on my feet, instead of rubbing it in she wiped it off with the wax soak which made no sense? After that, once my pedicure was done and my toes needed to dry, she stripped everything off of the tub and foot rest not even leaving me a towel to rest my feet on while they dry. The tub was visibly dirty and I did not feel comfortable putting my bare feet against the tub or the foot rest considering I had never seen either be directly cleaned and based off how dirty it looked, it just was not appealing. She never came back to check on me or offer me slippers. I held my feet up while waiting for my mother to finished her pedi and eventually messed up my nail because of how uncomfortable it was hold my feet up on my own. Luckily, the lady next to us saw and offered me slippers and fixed my nail but instead of redoing the toe she just put a glob of polish and left it at that. For the price of this type of service a customer wants to be 100% relaxed and happy with their results and I was not. We did in fact tell the front desk man, not sure if he is owner but he didn't care. He apologized and quickly tried to end the convo with an empty apology without offering anything to help make the situation better. And that is the reason of this bad review, had he tried to offer us something to create a better situation that would've been great but at this location they do not care if you're upset, as long as they get the payment they are happy and that's not a nail salon that deserves a high rating‍ save your money and go somewhere else!

    I'm from LA and was visiting my sister in Sacramento when I realized I desperately needed to get my…read morenails done. I was honestly really hesitant about trying someone new because I'm extremely particular about my nail shape and have been going to the same nail tech in LA for years. My sister recommended Tracy, and I couldn't be happier that I trusted her. Tracy absolutely nailed it! The shape, length, and design were PERFECT. She paid so much attention to detail and gave me exactly what I wanted. If you're looking for someone who is talented, meticulous, and truly cares about her work, I HIGHLY recommend Tracy. I'll definitely be back every time I'm in Sacramento!

    I'm writing to address the experience I had at your salon today, which was not only disappointing…read morebut completely unacceptable. I have been a loyal client for over a year, consistently spending over $100 per visit, and I have always come in respectfully, communicated clearly, and expected the level of service that matches the price I pay. Today, a nail tech abruptly took over my service and immediately told me I "should go somewhere else" because I'm "never satisfied." I have never raised my voice, insulted anyone, or behaved disrespectfully. I simply expect quality for the price I pay. She went as far as saying the staff "gets scared" when I come in, which is not only unprofessional but completely false. Throughout the past year, I've also noticed that the staff frequently speaks in their language while looking directly at me or other clients, creating an uncomfortable environment where customers feel talked about instead of respected. This has happened every single time I've visited. To make matters worse, shortly before my service was finished, I overheard another woman complaining about her nail tech as well, proving I'm not the only customer experiencing issues. When I requested a small discount due to the disrespect I received, the salon refused. No apology, no accountability, and no professionalism. After a year of loyalty and hundreds of dollars spent, this is how I was treated. I will not be returning, and I hope management seriously reevaluates how staff communicates with customers and handles feedback.

I just came back today and got a fill - specifically requested for no polish because I have my family member doing it for my wedding reception this weekend. Somehow the fill was still $50 when I used to get full sets with designs starting at $50. When I asked for clarification I just got told "yeah that's right." I also got a pedicure but I wasn't asked what type, just assumed it was the basic one. Yes it was very nice she did great, I also got french tips. But found out that was $62 and again when asking just got told "yeah that's right." Just a bit frustrating when it doesn't seem like the service was extra or "luxury" per se. Yes I understand it's been awhile as well and inflation is a very real thing. I was excited to come back and Andy was sweet and did a great job. I just can't understand the pricing when at other places it's $40 for a pedicure and $35/40 for fills for the same services. There's no pricing online so maybe that's my fault for not asking ahead of time. Definitely feels like a bit of a rip off and I don't think I'll be back anymore unfortunately.
