My French manicure
Kandyce M.

I live in Lompoc and have a hard time finding quality nail salons. Saw Vally Nails in Solvang and thought I'd give it a try. Vivie did not disappoint. It was definitely worth the short drive. She did dip powder with French tip. I love my nails. There's only one tech so you know you're getting Vivie when you make your appointment. Thanks for the great service.

my nails after a month

I've been seeing Vivie for 2 years getting my dip manicure with her every 3-4 weeks and I have never been disappointed with the results! The quality of her dip manicure is better than any I've gotten elsewhere--it has made my nails so strong and they last so long! I always choose a new color to do each time because her collection of colors is extensive! I constantly get compliments from others about how beautiful my nails look. I'll never trust anyone else other than Vivie to do my nails!

Dip powder nails

Showed up without an appointment but luckily it was early enough and Vivie was able to accommodate me. Went in for gel nails however decided to try dip powder. It looks just like gel and it's better for your nails. I love how they turned out. Thank you!

Left hand - one week!

I am visiting here for a couple of weeks and went to Vivie for a manicure. She only does dipping powder manicures which was new for me. She told me it would last much longer than the acrylic gel manicure which I had. During the course of the process Vivie criticized the type of manicure I had, told me the brown spots on my hands were from "uv light damage and ugly" - her exact words! WOW! I'm 77 years old. Those are age spots! My manicure with Vivie was exactly 1 week ago today. My nails are unbelievably chipped and my cuticles look terrible! I have been having regular manicures for over 30 years and never, ever had such an unprofessional and disrespectful experience and such an awful manicure. ABSOLUTELY DO NOT GO HERE!

Vivie was great! Most attention to detail and best outcome you can find in the valley and Santa Barbara hands down (and I've tried it all). Always love supporting a woman-run/owned business. She does it all! Best enjoyed if you take the time to not be rushed & relax.

The acrylic removal was painless and done the right way with acetone soaking and nail drill. Unfortunately there wasn't much of a selection of green nail polish. The pricing for acrylic removal and polish was $30.

This is hands down the best manicure I've had in my whole life. The attention to detail & expertise was off the charts. Worth every cent!

Rosie did my manicure and I guess she's going for a personal record of the fastest manicure ever. Literally she was "ready" to polish in about 5 to 7 minutes. I wish I was exaggerating. When I asked to look at my nails because I thought she had rushed through it, she started tapping on the table, like impatiently. Then apparently I wasn't going fast enough because she pushed away from the table, gave me a look and without saying anything got up. She went to go finish another customer that was left in the chair half done and waiting. Here's the thing. I called ahead. Asked if they could see me (said I'd be there in 5 minutes) and they said yes. When I got here there were 4 people here (only 4 chairs) already getting service. I didn't say anything, sat down and just waited my turn. I'm not in a rush today. If you're busy, say your busy. Say you don't have time. If you don't wanna scare off business, and want me to come but need me to wait, when I get there, just ask me if I mind waiting. But sure as hell don't try and squeeze me in between half finished people, and do a less than professional job, and rush through me. Not cool. In the end she still never said a word to me and just pawned me off to another tech (Kim) who at least did a decent job. I think though this experience turned me off of this place though. Most likely, well definitely actually, won't be back!

My friend and I arrived and were excited- but the salon is dark and immediately we were separated into chairs were we could not see each other or talk. No offer of magazines- I don't believe there was music either. The stylists were very polite and very responsive via email in the scheduling. But again typically pay $40 - $50 for a blow out and it's worth it - the cost of a blow out at this salon does not mirror the experience or service you should receive.

There was no one at reception to check in so I stood in the foyer for a minute or so. One technician ( giving a pedicure) saw me but did not greet me. I decided to step into the restroom and when I came back into the foyer- still no acknowledgment that a new client had arrived. I finally addressed the young lady giving the pedi to ask " is there someone I should check in with?" 2 more staff members came out of the office into the foyer- still no greeting or even eye contact. ( Way to make someone feel welcome...not) The young lady giving the facial was ok. I tried to ask " what are you applying now?" a few times but got very short responses. Lastly- paid for 80 minute treatment but only got 70 minutes... if this was the only issue I would not gave said anything, but when combined with the rest of the average customer service, I was disappointed overall.
