I've been going to Union Nail Spa for at least a year and I couldn't recommend it more! I happened to get my nails done here the day before I got engaged and they were just perfect. I always get a gel manicure and it consistently last me 2-3 weeks and rarely chips. I love seeing Amy, who is so nice, talented, and takes such pride in her work. All of the women in the salon are so nice and great at their jobs! Highly recommend

I'm a new member and fan of Union Nail Salon . Amy is amazing, she knows exactly what you want after just a moment, takes great care of you, and makes sure you leave her salon happy and satisfied. I enjoyed our conversation and appreciated her gentle, professional touch, there wasn't a single "ouch"! Thank you, Amy, for making me feel pretty

They are simply the best doing the dipping powder and she doesn't use gel on top. Quality and excellent service.

Best dipping powder nails. She doesn't put gel on top making your nails much healthier.

Been to this nail salon a few times, and they are so fast and efficient. I also love that they always have availability. Something that threw me off at first was that they do regular top coat over dip but it actually does last a long time! My nails tend to last a 3-4 weeks and the way they remove the dip is in such a healthy way that doesn't damage my natural nail so I really appreciate that. The ladies working there are also so kind and listen to what you want, and let you take your time if you need to answer an email or call. Overall I love this salon and I think this will be my new go-to for SF.

I've been going to see Amy for over a year now, and she does a fantastic job every single time! My natural nails have never been so healthy. It's so hard to find someone who knows what they're doing with Dip Powder, and Amy is the best. I can easily go a full month in between appointments, and still get compliments on my nails, even with the grow out. Highly recommend!

- place is clean - no massage chairs - receptionist nice but on personal call in back all day (i dont care but she could have managed a situation better if she was around) - lots of colors which was cool but not enough neutrals - cold water used for soaking feet - terrible time management causing everyone in process to have a worst experience.. i had just been sat down for a mani/pedi and two people walked in asking for mani/pedi and mani. Instead of saying " it will take at least 30min " (because there were only two mani/pedi specialists and they had just started me), the receptionist said " sure! " so they sat down and waited for 40 minutes.. in the process my " massage " was two minutes long on each hand and she told me she would return to put top coat but she never did .. so i had to ask if I could put it on myself.. so then she came to do it but i had to wait longer for it to dry ... and when I finally got up (or attempted to), the pillow and towel were still on me, my nails were not dry so as i adjusted myself no one came to my rescue to move the pillow on my lap!! I had to ask for receptionist or nail lady to help! *in the end, by the time i walked out, the girl who wanted the mani said she didnt want the mani.. because she was STILL waiting while her friend was being worked on!

Amy was amazing. She took her time, was detail oriented and you could tell she cared about doing good work. I did dip with tip with an almond shape and they came out wonderfully. I called ahead of time and was able to come in almost immediately around 3:30pm on a Monday. She ended the appointment with a nice hand massage as well. My new go to!

OBSESSED WITH MY NAILS!! I tried Gel X for the first time and I am in love with this set. Request Cindy or Amy they are both amazing, can't wait to come back!

This was my second visit to Union Nail Spa. My first dip manicure was My new nail salon without a doubt!

This was my second visit to Union Nail Spa and I will be back again and again. My last dip manicure lasted for a solid three weeks and my gel pedicure is still in tact and shiny! The ladies at Union Nail Spa are so sweet and helpful. It was a team effort to find the perfect holiday red, and we did it! This is OPI's Trill of Brazil.

There are plenty of nail salons on Union Street and I've been to most of them. I tried Union Nails this week and had a good experience. They have a large selection of colors, and I loved the red speckled shade I chose. This is a basic, no-frills salon -- no massage chairs, just a long bench with pillows -- but they took their time and did a really nice job. Amy is great. I walked home in flip flops and later changed into flats, which unfortunately ruined my big left toenail (ugh!). I went back the next day and they fixed it without any issue. I appreciated that and would come back again. read more

I had time in between a conference and hair apt so I read union nail spas reviews and walked in to ask if they had time for an apt last minute. The ladies greeted me right away and took me. I asked for a pedicure and gel x manicure. Gel x manicure is not my norm but I had broken so many nails from my last gel manicure that I thought why not. They did an absolutely amazing job. My pedicure was wonderful. Great massage, lots of colors to pick from and toes look cute! i asked for almond shaped shorter nails and Amy did such a good job! I'm really impressed. She pays attention to detail and I'll definitely be back. read more

I hate leaving negative reviews but this was one of the worst manicures I've ever had. I always get a "healthy nail dip" manicure at my local salon but was visiting SF and wanted to treat my daughter to a manicure so we stopped in here as walk ins. We were immediately seated and both received speedy service. The problem started after we left the salon. Within 1 hour, one of my nails completely popped off! Over the next week, I lost a nail a day til I ended up with 2 manicured nails and 8 naked ones. It was a total waste of money. I assume they did not prep the nail bed appropriately prior to performing the dip. Overall, next time I'm in SF, I will walk right on by Union Nail Spa and try any one of a number of other salons on Union Street. read more

Agree with the other customers that said the ladies are really nice who run the salon but I have gone 2x now and my gel x mani always pops off prematurely. The last and final time 2 nails came off in first 24 hours and within 5 days all 10 nails were off. Bummer because the staff is nice but there is just no longevity.

I've been going to Union Nail Spa for a couple of years and I've always been super happy with it. The space itself is typical Marina nail salon -- narrow and cluttered, but fine -- and they always did a great job (and gave *excellent* food/leg massages and I would often pay for extended time!). Lately it's been a bit touch and go -- a few months ago, they gave me a manicure and cut me two times (on different hands) that ended up getting infected and was super painful. Still, I went back to let them redeem themselves. Today I called to make an appointment for a pedicure (which, in my experience, they loosely adhere to anyway), and when I went I still had to wait about 15 min. There was a new lady who started my pedicure. She made one of my toes bleed, and just laughed at it without apologizing. The foot massage was nonexistent, and the overall quality was just meh. The salon was cold, and hectic, and there was another woman who had made an appointment (for an entire hour after mine) that was getting up to leave because she didn't have the time to sit and wait. I want to keep supporting this place, but I'm not sure why I should keep giving them the benefit of the doubt. There are 2 or 3 other nail salons within a block. read more

Stopped in for my first mani/pedi since pre-Covid days. This nail spa is brand new, modern, clean, and the staff were properly masked and gloved; I felt really safe. The color selection is endless! Also, a bonus: they are taking 15% off any service through June. My hands and feet were in desperate need of TLC. The sweet nail technician took her time attending to my cuticles. At the end of a very relaxing experience, my hands and feet had a major makeover that I'm so happy about! read more

I feel bad writing this because the ladies were nice but I was not happy with the result. Firstly, it was sort of uncomfortable when I was getting the grooming treatment and the cuticle cutting hurt a bit. I paid for a gel manicure, it's been less than a week and two nails have already chipped off. In addition, upon further inspection the woman did a very bad job cleaning up my cuticles, they ended up looking dry and choppily cut. read more

They started filing my nails to paint over the acrylic that was still on my nail so I asked them to remove all of the acrylic nail but I ended up leaving in the middle of them filing because my nails were getting extremely thin and hurting.

They're also named after their adorable husky Co Be who laid at the door during my appointment.

The salon itself is clean, relaxing, and beautifully maintained it immediately gave me confidence that I was in good hands. What really stood out to me was the attention to detail and the level of care the staff put into their work. My nail technician was incredibly patient, listened to exactly what I wanted, and offered helpful suggestions without being pushy. They took their time shaping and perfecting my nails, and the final result honestly exceeded my expectations. The polish application was flawless, and you can tell they use high-quality products. I also appreciated how hygienic everything was. Tools were properly sanitized, and the overall cleanliness of the space made the experience even more enjoyable and stress-free. It's clear that they prioritize both customer satisfaction and safety. On top of that, the atmosphere is so calming it's the perfect place to unwind and treat yourself. I never felt rushed, and the staff checked in throughout to make sure I was happy with everything. Overall, Sydney Nail Spa delivers not just great nails but a truly relaxing and professional experience. I'll definitely be coming back and recommending this place to friends and family. If you're looking for a nail salon that combines skill, cleanliness, and excellent customer service, this is it!

I wasn't told about a removal fee before or during the service. At checkout, I offered $20 in cash and was told the removal fee was actually $50. I called afterward to confirm the removal price and was told $15(one, five) over the phone, which doesn't match what I was actually charged. No receipt was given either. Given that the price jumped from $20 to $50 the moment I offered less, and dropped back to $15 on the phone, this felt like a deliberate bait-and-switch, not a mistake. Nice service overall, but I'd recommend asking for all costs upfront before you sit down.

Each nail was a little different, and he spent a lot of time making sure each design was up to my standard. We chose the colors together before, and he tried to change the original just a little bit to work with the materials they already had. This one set included cat eye, blooming gel, chrome, sculpting gel, and more. He spent a lot of time on filing, shaping, etc so I could tell he was being really detail oriented. He assured me the outcome would be about 80% similar to the picture, since they wouldn't have the exact colors. The final price ended up being $135 plus tip, and I got an appointment the same day I called. It's very busy so make sure you get an appointment!
