Top Nails - Acrylic Fill gel polish.. PHENOMENAL OUTCOME! - Waxing Near Me - Salinas, California

I've had good service here in the past, but my most recent experience was really, really bad. I called and booked a pedicure and nail dip for 6pm on 12/29. Technician (sorry I didn't get her name, and techs don't wear name badges). Pedicure was fine but then she asked if I was getting a dip, and I said yes, if they still had time because the pedicure took a lot longer than normal and I know it was getting late but they did accept other customers later - around 7pm. So she started on my dip nails. I made the unfortunate mistake of selecting, for the first time, a dip color that was white woth sparkles. It became clear that my tech was not experienced in dip nails. Lovely Vicky left for the day and everyone else started leaving but a few stayed behind. Long story short, I was the last customer there and didn't leave ubtil 9:05pm. It took 3 hours for a pedicure and dip. My nails had so many layers and she then told me that she would need to dip again in a "clear powder" due to the sparkly color and the guy sitting next to her kept looking at my nails and having discussions that I didn't understand. She ended up putting a white dip powder which totally covered what i already had. It didn't go well so then she decided to just paint them with a gel paint that was not the color I had asked for but at this point I had been there for over 2 1/2 hours and I just wanted to get out of there. There were poor techs who had to sit there and wait until after 9pm for my tech to finish and I was so embarrassed and uncomfortable. I'd have said something to the owners but they had left: the tech had to call Vicky to confirm my Venmo went through which I do not mind but I wish I'd have had a chance to speak with her. My nails looked awful. They were too thick, and then filed down so many times. The end product looked like a glittery child's art project and my nails were uneven and the length on my two hands did not match. I was not at all happy and completely embarrassed to show my nails/hands to anyone: I was leaving the next day for a trip so I wasn't able to go back and show anybody or have the mess fixed. The only way I'd go back is if Vicky or one of the gentlemen did my nails. I never want to be held for over 3 hours in a nail salon ever ever again. read more

Amazing job, however there time wait is ridiculous. The over booking is not cool. There's a reason we call to schedule appointments. Waited 1.5hr until it was finally my turn. Vickie is good but she needs to time her self accordingly. It's not all about the $$! Might not seem like a lot but she lost a loyal 5+ year customer. I hope you read this Vickie! read more

4/5 stars just because when I asked for change she raised the price. I thought it was weird. She charged me $75 , I wanted to leave a 20% so I did the math and it was $15. I ended up giving her $100 and just asking for $5 back so I can leave $20 tip since she was nice. But then she said "oh it's actually $80". I'm obviously not going to argue over $5 so I just left the $100 and left. They're nice and everything but I thought that was a little greedy. read more

I came here for a pedicure last minute on a Tuesday at 4pm because my original place was busy. The pedicure was good enough/ okay. But the guy that did my pedicure had a rough hand and was very rough with my feet. The final result was a good enough pedicure but this place is definitely a back up for me, if my original place is not free. Overall, I will come back if I don't have another option, the pedicures are the only service I have had here. read more

Top Nails - my fav set from there - Waxing Near Me - Salinas, California

I have been to Vicky at Top Nails for a few months now to get acrylic nails. I highly recommend. I found out about this place and Vicky through a co worker whose nails were the best I've ever seen and exactly what I wanted. We both get short almond shaped nails. You need an appointment to come here. That's not a negative. That means it's a good place- high in demand. I text Vicky about a week from when I will need a fill and she confirms the appointment via text. Vicky is the sweetest you will come across. Extremely hard working and very artistic. Check out her Instagram. She inspires me! PS I drive 40 minutes to see her, I heard of others who travel to see her as well read more

This is Angie Ortega, I'm handling a dispute and will post review in a couple of days. I have one star but it should be zero stars after my experience on Saturday. Update:: The owner contacted me. Having been a customer between 6-7 years. She was very defensive and rude. I notified them I was moving on. Vicky taunted me. Not once did she show concern or ask what was going on. Says she has proof of her husband Tom asking me to go wash my hands, if she's able to hear conversations and him asking to go wash my hands, I want to know if she's heard or witnessed other conversations he's had with me. I'm an older woman who was just widowed and this young man.... I'm seeing a Skin Doctor and my primary care Physician for irritated upper respiratory irritation, and both hands and fingers have intense itching and burning. Their customer service was ZERO: you be the judge of the situation. read more

I really dislike leaving low stars but my experience wasn't great. I went in for a pedicure on a cold night. Water was not even luke warm. It was late and my pedicure rushed for $50 because they were rushing to leave. When she finished up my foot massage she didn't get a warm towel just a dried one to wipe off oil from my legs and foot. It wouldn't matter much if the oils actually came off and she didn't use the same towel that she cleaned my nails with. read more

Very poor customer service. Actually a terrible ran business.Had an appointment but had to wait more than 90 minutes. (Not quite sure why we waited. Should have walked out) Never once did they apologize or even acknowledge how long we had been waiting. They need to learn how to book appointments better. read more

I've been here a couple of times and it's so-so. One thing that's good is that the staff is always nice and welcoming. Some of the people here might be good at their job but not the ones I've experienced. I've gotten manicures and pedicures here. In my most recent experience I decided to get a manicure and pedicure. I was not satisfied at all. I asked for regular nail polish since I'm giving my nails a rest from the nail drill. Mind you, I came in and had zero nail polish on my nails. They were clean. I've been growing them out since I had gel x nails 3 months ago and I wanted them to completely recover. Well, the person doing my manicure decided to use the nail drill on my nails. Why? It's regular nail polish. There is no need for a nail drill. I asked her to stop and she did. The damage on my nails was already visible. I'm also including a photo of the so called manicure.Not only are the lines uneven there is still uneven cut cuticles. I'm not coming back. read more

I will never go there again. The man "Thuy" or TN is rude. They do good work for the most part but that man (I think he is owner) makes the experience not worth it. When he did my acrylics, he was kind of aggressive and moved my hands in a NOT gentle manner. He squeezed my fingers when using the drill. He was overall kind of mean. It was weird. Never again. read more

I have not been to a nail salon since my nail lady retired, over 10 years. Today I came here and was reminded why I stopped doing my nails. I asked the lady what the price was for a set and she proceeded to sit down and ask me what I wanted to have done, started my nails without saying another word about pricing. The nail technicians spoke their language amongst themselves, never making any effort to engage with the customer. Once I was done then technician pointed to the bathroom as if I was supposed to know it was time to wash my hands. I was asked how I would be paying, charged $45 and told I had to pay in cash or Zelle which I just saw another customer pay with her card but wasn't given that option. I wasn't even given the price ahead of time like I asked. I left her a tip even though I didn't think she deserved one and will not be going back. Why should a place with zero customer service be deserving of a tip when you feel like you are getting hearded like cows from station to station and zero effort trying to make conversation with customers. All you hear is them speaking to each other in their own language, awkward! read more

Ive done my nails 3x here now. I would definitely recommend them for acrylic nails. You have to make an appointment because they are always booked with repeat customers. They're the best (so far) from the 3 nail salons I have tried in Salinas. They take their time to ensure your nails are even and done correctly. They pay close attention to details. I have never had my acrylics lift, chip or break. On the other hand, I have also had a gel manicure done here. One nail chipped overnight and the others started chipping after a week. Weird enough only my nails on my left hand are chipped. My right hand is intact. Not sure what happened; might have been a fluke. Another downside would be wait time! Be prepared to spend up to two hours here. They usually get started on me 10+ minutes after my appointment slot. I think they overbook sometimes because I've had them step away from me to attend someone else and vice versa; this is what makes the appointment drag longer than it should. Don't think I'll get gel nails again but I will definitely be back for acrylics. read more
