If I could do zero stars I would. I called to see what time they closed and I was told to come straight in and they would take care of me. I went in for a pedi and full set manicure. My pedicure was extremely rushed. I wasn't offered the list to choose from and I was only in the chair for 7 minutes. Then the lady that did my manicure was awful!!! I asked for a ombré set. She piled on so much powder, she was extremely rough, and was rushing. When I pointing out some problems with the nails she told me it oils be fine that she would file it down. My nails looked the worst I have ever seen! They were closed and ready to leave. It was $65 for both services. I went back first thing the next morning to have them fixed. She acted completely annoyed and blamed the powder for it looking like that. She said that's how the powder looks and there's nothing she can do. Her tone was rude and not once did she apologize for the way the turned out. I asked for a refund since it was not to my liking and they weren't going to be able to do what I what. She denied me the refund and said she would fix them. I was in a wedding the next day and needed them to be fixed. She fixed them by doing just a basic French tip. The day before i was told the French tip was $10 cheaper than the ombré set. I did not get the difference in price either. She then blamed the wideness of my finger nails for the way my nails looked. My nails aren't wide. Two days after she "fixes" them and the corners are lifting. The nails aren't even throughout and the bottoms don't line up with the shape of my nails. I will never go again and I have been getting pedicures from here for the past 3 summers. read more

U & I Nails is a very busy nail & hair salon located across from Taco Bell at Tucker & Valley. It is a large facility with many "stations" and pedicure chairs. They even have several children's pedicure chairs so you can make appointments for several family members at the same time. You can walk in, but on Friday or Saturday I would call for an appointment. Megan does a nice pedicure & gel nails and Katie is my favorite hairdresser! I love that the prices are very reasonable. read more

I was visiting my Dad in Tehachapi several weeks ago for our annual Mountain Festival/Rodeo shenanigans. I was in desperate need of a pedicure! Super last minute. I called U & I and asked them if they could squeeze me in for a pedicure... she said they didn't have anyone waiting so to come in "now". I arrived 5 minutes later and was greeted immediately! Very friendly people, and the owner is just the sweetest! I think her name is Mai? I feel bad because I cannot remember the girls name that did my pedicure, but she did a FANTASTIC job! I mean, like one of the best pedicures I've ever had in my life, ever. I got the deluxe pedicure for $35... $40 with tip. That EXACT same pedicure at my regular nail salon costs $50! My feet were soft for 3 weeks and the nail polish stayed put as well. I highly reccommend this place. I know that I will be returning to Tehachapi in October for the Apple Festival at which time I will be getting another pedicure! read more

Wow! This place has really stepped up their game! Customer service was excellent and my mani and pedi were well done. Nice folks, too. I'll be back. read more

I just visited the shop for the second time. First time I walked in to inquire about an appt the lady was rude. That was 10-11 months ago. Today I stopped just to see if they had an appt for a pedicure (maybe she had a bad day) the man that greeted me was kind and was able to help me right away! The atmosphere was relaxing the chair was amazing! I received the kind of service I was used to in the OC. I will be back thank you read more

I am from out of town visiting my sister and mom. I decided to take my 16 yr old niece for a mani pedi nothing special just regular manicure and regular pedi with ( and I will gladly pay for the callus remover $5) Soooo I get TOM I politely introduced myself and let him know I was a visitor. I ask his name TOM HE SAID LOUDLY. He reached for the massage chair device. I said I don't want it on thank you. He turned it on any ways I turned it off. I ask for just callus remover he said no you want Deluxe pedi. I said no I don't I don't care for anything else I will gladly pay, the lady next to him working said $5 he said no $10, I said which is it laughing she said $5 he was pissed. CUT TO THE CHASE He went and got some blue scrub, I asked is that the callus remover he said it's better. I said I asked for callus remover he got up went and got the callus remover put it on left it for one minute scrub for 2 and wiped it off. He also kept hitting my feet as If to say without saying , put in the water. He did my mani, not great very quick. He left me sitting there got up and walked away. So I picked up my handbag and my drink and. Walked over to the drying station. NEVER THANKED ME NEVER HELPED ME NEVER SPOKE TO ME ONLY TO CALL ME HEIDI ( not Cathy) as he slapped the bill on the table. I got up a few minutes later and the girl helping my niece asked if I wanted to pay I said not now and asked her to help me move my pant legs down. She asked if I was ok I said no I told her my issue she said sorry blah blah blah I paid in cash left him nothing no tip her 8 bucks for my niece, I could hear him yelling at her for the tip money! WHAT A BULLY! Never again. Thanks for letting me vent. read more

Was very happy with the pink and white gel pedicure that was done by Mai. Very clean and friendly salon and I will be returning again!

I got a new full set done by one of the younger ladies that work there. It was such a cheap nail job. She seemed annoyed and in a hurry. The nails barley fit correctly. Also the nails already started falling off a week later. However, Victoria does eyebrow waxing very well. I would highly recommend her. I got my eyebrows done once by one of the other ladies and they gave two dramatically different sized eyebrows. It was awfully shaped too. Compared to the other nail places in Tehachapi this place is the best looking inside. read more

The customer service has much to be desired!! GEM did a great job on my pedicure and was very gentle and precise (5) She was also very professional in her conversation during the service. im new to the area so I'll be checking out the other places here as well read more

OMG!!! I've never been to a nail salon with such nice people. The owner Mai made me feel like I was family. I live in NY but I'll make sure when I return to Tehachapi, I will be visiting her salon so she can do my nails again. I'm bringing the whole family. Tren, who did my pedicure was awesome as well. They both asked me if I was happy with my services to make sure I was good. Truly awesome establishment!!! read more

I always loved going to U & I when I lived in Tehachapi. It's really nice and most importantly, clean! I've always left happily and received compliments on my nails. To top it all off, it's very affordable! read more

This was a very bad experience. I went in for a pedicure and after it was done I waited about 40 minutes under the light and then another 30 minutes after I went home and I had to go somewhere so I slipped my shoes on and after I took my shoes off it ruined my polish. They weren't very informative either. That was my first pedicure and they left me sitting at the light without telling me when I could leave. So I highly recommend you do not go here. read more

My daughter recommended that I go here as she would not go to any other nail salon. Once I went I was hooked. All of the people that work there are professional and give great customer service. I personally always ask for Mya as I have gotten to know her and we always have a nice conversation. I would and have recommended this salon to friends and will only get my nails done here. I have also had great eyebrow waxes. read more

Very good costumer service. Loved the way my nails turned out. I finally found a place where I'll continue to go back and get them done. I was offered water the entire time and I thought that was very nice. read more

If your looking for a basic pedicure I think they have a great price at $18. Unfortunately I have very dry feet who need some extra tlc, they did very little scrubbing so after a week it already felt like I needed another pedicure. I wish they had more then one choice for a pedicure. read more

The atmosphere and whole saloon is wonderful. Mai is so good at what she does , she takes pride in her work and she employs the best ! The music is so relaxing and my nails look great! I highly recommend this place read more

The guy rushed! I got pink and white gel nails. The white looked like I did it at home. It wasn't straight or thick. I asked the guy if he could put more white because it was almost transparent he said " oh no oh no it's better like this" . Some Asian guys walked in the business and the guy doing my nails got all shaken an weird. I asked who they were and he said family. Overall bad expensive, expierence. read more

I used to go there, but the last time I went they put so much polish on it would never dry, I scuffed it up after about an hour because it was still so thick it would never dry, I went back in for them to fix and it the lady was very rough and just about yelled at me, telling me it was my fault for not letting it dry, I told her it had been over an hour. Nope not again, then they talk a lot among themselves in front of you which I think is rude. read more

I have been there many times Enjoy going there, I like that they're clean, A little too fast in the service would like a longer massage to my feet and legs, What they do a great job On pedicures, read more

I called to ask if I should make an appointment. The woman who answered the phone said just walk in. So in I go and was received with a what do you need from one lady and a sour look. I said I was there there for a manicure after which she said. We very busy right now. I said ok, how long? "we very busy. look 12345 customers waiting. We very busy for you". Rude. Rude. Rude. Please polish your customer service skills. read more

I will never go back to u & I nails again. The same thing happened with me that the lady put my nail polish on too thick so it messed up after it should have been dried. Also she didn't cover my whole nail with the nail polish. The lady that worked there was very rude when we paid her. She was throwing the pen and the paper. Didn't say thank you, have a nice day nothing. Never again!! read more

Extremely rude staff. I won't be returning and would advice others to go elsewhere. In not going to pay someone to treat me like dirt especially in front of my child! read more

Terrible experience. Called shortly after 5 to ask what time they closed. The woman who answered replied that they closed at 6 but to come in right away if I wanted to get a service. I explained that I would like a full set and would head that way. I arrived, and the woman confirmed that I was the person who had just called. She started on my nails by doing a horrible job of removing my polish. She then began to use the roughest drill I've ever felt to smooth my nail bed. It hurt so badly I had to ask her to stop. The skin underneath my nails was throbbing at this point. As she replaced the swirl head, she said she didn't have anything else softer. I asked her about the head that she JUST PUT ON. She said it wasn't any softer and I requested that she try....and guess what? It was a complete 180 in strength, and was much softer. She took out the plastic box of compartmentalized white tips, and I asked her to please finish removing the polish still on my nails before she put the tips on. She looked at me in frustration and-I kid you not- asked for me to come back tomorrow because it was close to 6 and she "had a headache". I obliged, because at this point I was already committed to going to a different nail shop. Here's a tip: Don't waste someone's time and invite them in for a service if you're going to rush through it and do a crap job, and then top it off by feigning a headache because you're too lazy to complete the job. Bonus for me, it most likely would've been an awful job anyway, so I probably lucked out. read more

Just had my fourth gel mani and have used three different ladies. They all did a good job and really like Linda. Thank you!!!

I luv Mya, her crew, and the soothing soft music. The service is always professional; and Mya does not play. U&I, try it you will like it.

OMG, finally a great nail salon in Tehachapi! We'd stopped going here several years ago due to a problem with prior management but went back due to new ownership and positive feedback. Very nice clean decorated store, ultra friendly staff, most speak English (very little "chatter" in the background), and Mai, the owner, always makes sure you're happy. A huge shout out to Tran who's my go to girl from now on. read more

Men: If you ever need a really good pedicure, I highly recommend Megan at u & i nails.

I think I'm in love! read more
