I feel really bad giving this review but I have to look out for you ladies because the audacity to let me walk out of their nail salon looking like this. Never in my entire life have I ever had a nail tech make my nails look like this. I still paid because I felt so bad but I paid $66. Please save yourself the anxiety and do not come here. I was embarrassed to go home, I was ashamed to show my partner my nails. Never again.
I went to VIP to celebrate my birthday on March 30 by getting a manicure and a pedicure. The woman who gave me both was very nice. The manager or owner of the shop, I'm not sure what his position was other than he organized and seemed to be in charge of the shop. I guess the woman doing my pedicure and was now working on my manicure was running behind so he also worked on my nails. He was a little rough with my hand as he held it while sitting in a chair beside me. The woman must have cut my thumb and index finger cuticles too short because they were very red, and swollen after my manicure and my pedicure were done. i paid them both a good tip and I was very pleasant during their work. Afterwards my index finger was very swollen at the cuticle and was very red. I went to a doctor who put me on antibiotics as it looked infected and was very sore to touch, but two courses of antibiotics didn't help. Because it was a Nail salon the doctor then put me on a course of anti fungal medication which also didn't help. The cuticles on both fingers remained red and swollen. I went out of town as I was moving and did not contact the manager of the shop. I also felt like he would not have been helpful. Unfortunately my nails grew in distorted, misshaped and are both lifting from the nail bed. I have taken photos and would like to share them but do not see a place to upload them. My nails have grown in AWFUL!! I am very upset! I feel they did not take care of my nails and cut them far too much at the cuticle and distorted the nail bed at the matrix where the nail initiates growth. I thought they were professional enough to recognize that they had made a mistake and to tell me how to take care of them but I was very wrong! My nails are so ugly that I can't stand looking at them and have decided to get acrylic nails until by nails grow out. Thank you for reading. I do not support and tell you to avoid VIP Nail Bar on Yucaipa Blvd, in Yucaipa, CA.
Honestly, my entire experience was bad. The owner (I'm assuming) did my nails. I made an appointment over the phone for a soak off and gel manicure, but he didn't soak my nails off, he drilled the product off and filed my nails pretty thin. I had to ask to get my nails reshaped 3 times because they were all crooked. Then after he tells me he won't do gel on my nails because they're too thin, so I start looking at regular polishes. The display nails are covered in tape so the colors are hard to see, so I asked him if I could see the colors and he got irritated with me. When I asked for a price for gel at first he said $50, then regular he said $40, but then when I wanted no color at all and just the soak off, he said $35!! But then he said the $35 includes color and he can't charge me less for no color?? So I ended up getting black. He wouldn't wait for my nails to dry and wanted to get my wallet out of my pocket for me, but I declined and told him I'll wait. He pat my nails dry quickly and rushed me out the door- just for me to realize they got messed up when pat dry. Overall very irritated with his attitude the entire time, the price changes, & the quality of my nails. Will be getting them redone and fixed somewhere else tomorrow :( took an hour and 40 mins for a regular manicure.
Always Happy with Tammys work. She takes her time and does a Very nice set every time. Thank You Tammy
I recently gave Lin at VIP Nail Bar a 5 star review because she does an Excellent pedicure. Unfortunately, the last time I went back I didn't have an appointment and it was going to be an hour so I made an appointment for the next day. I showed up on time only to be asked to be seated and wait. I looked over to what Lin was doing and she just started clipping nails on a pedicure. I waited for 30 minutes and the manager never acknowledged me again, in fact he would even look my way. I got up walked over to him and asked him if he was the owner or manager and he said manager. I asked why he took the walk before me and he said because people get mad or leave if they have to wait. Really!?Isn't it worse for an appointment to have to wait over a walk in? Again, I was right on time. I asked him to show me his appointment book and he didn't have one! He got very upset with me even though I was just asking questions and said I didn't have to get my pedicures there. Too bad because Lin is really good if I could just get in with her . Because of the manager (don't know his name but he's the only one) I will not be returning there. If the owner is reading this... please get another manager, your sales would sky rocket if you just had a good appointment system.
I enjoyed my manicure' it relieved stress from my hands and I'am completely satisfied with my nails. Thank you and God BLESS you all.
They lied about wait time, the owner and Jenny were rude and full of themselves. Even though I gave them both pretty good tips, I would never go here again!! My nails are crooked and lumpy. I would get it if it was busy but by the time Jenny was doing my powder dip, there were no customers. The worst part is, I payed the same price for a high class expensive place in Rancho that serves champagne and wine with excellent service for a half job, rude and unprofessional salon. I'm driving my butt from now on! They don't deserve your serves and they won't get mine ever again!
Lynn did amazing on my nails. I went with a shorter square and she killed it I randomly started going here and I am so happy I did! Their customer service is excellent and you feel like they genuinely care about their customers. Conversations can be heard around the salon and everyone is super comfortable there. I am now a regular and get a different nail tech each time, but every time they do amazing ! I never have any issues.
Helen is awesome! She does my nails how I want them, not how others do whatever they want. She makes sure I like them and I'm happy. For me, It is important that she asks if I like them. I recommend if you are a picky person as I am. This is the first time in 20 years that I found someone like her. I hope she never leaves.
Cindy did a fabulous job on my new set of acrylics. Thank you Cindy! The place itself is also very clean!
NOT HONEST ABOUT WAIT TIMES He will tell you to "come in" and make you wait 90 minutes of your life you can't back. If you can take someone a business should just tell the customer.

Horrible dip nail service !! Not only did my mail tech not really file my nails ahead of time left this glue all over my hand. She was starting my nails and from the beginning she was sloppy. My end product I had to ask her to do something the tip on my fingernails were stuck. I ended up telling her no design. Don't need to spend more money on horrible service. Save your money and don't go here. read more

I love coming in... Shiny and Jenny are my favorites...but you can't go wrong with any of the techs... I am a simple girl that just does glitter with my gel nails. But they always take care of my daughter and I... oh and Boba next door... it's the perfect touch! read more

The last time I came here I was very dissatisfied and not with the establishment or the manager but with this ONE lady who did my nails the past couple times and I didn't post it like I usually do. I thought I would give her a second chance and she ruined my nails AGAIN. I really wished they didn't give me to her a second time and I didn't want to be rude so I went along and let her do my nails again. I do not know her name I just know she usually sits in the far left back corner. I'm 33 years old and I have never had a problem taking my acrylics off but she did it to where the acrylic is so meshed with my real nail that the top layer of my real nail is coming off with the acrylic .. I've never experienced this before only when she does my nails. I use to love it here but that one lady really ruined it for me. Also they no longer have boba because the rating couldn't get up to an A ..so don't expect to get your boba while you get your nails done anymore read more

Asked for this design, before she began I asked if she was able to do them and she nodded yes. However this wasn't the case, she had the color and design off and didn't bother to fix them. They just look like a sloppy version and when expressing to the owner that I was not satisfied he just said sorry and "next time". paid 85 for something that was poorly done and will not be coming back read more

I got a matte black gel manicure, pictured. I'd give the manicure an 8/10 but i give them a 5 because they really tried their best. They're one if the only nail salons open, working in the heat 10 hours a day. They had so much bussines, phone was ringing every 3-5 minutes. The guy that did my nails (Bill, the owner I think) was super accommodating and always asked if I was good and was willing to adjust. When they are able to open up inside again I will be going back for sure!! read more

Today I got the coolest nails ever! They are chrome ombré acrylic. The lady working on them was super patient and took her time to make them look perfect. Was quite pricey however it was exactly what I wanted. read more

I won't be back. I only came here because my hubby works construction so his days off vary and the usual lady I go to couldn't fit me in on short notice. How ever I won't be returning, even if I am desperate. They drill your nail down too low. My nails and cuticles were sore for a few days after. My gel nails also started to lift 1 week after. Also, it felt like a sweat shop in there. There were females working and one male manager working. The male manager kept walking around asking each client, my self included, what service they were having done. He asked me three times. It was like he was totaling up everything in his head lol. Lastly, for my gel nails I asked for a white and when the lady did the first coat she showed it to me and asked if it was ok. I asked if they had another white or if I could choose another color because I in fact did not care for the white. She told me she needed to do 3 coats and there wasn't another color available. I wanted to hurry up and get out of there so I just said ok. Why ask if you don't want to allow me to change the color? Lol. read more

Jenny charged me $75 for a full set with designs, which were literally just some lines and a few hearts, and the whole set looks like it was done by an actual child. The acrylic itself is also extremely lumpy rather than smooth like it's supposed to be. I've never been so unsatisfied and unimpressed by a nail salon like this. Do yourselves a favor and avoid them, as for the employees here, you guys need to do better. read more

I decided to try something a little different. I called to see if they could get me in and asked if I could come right away, so I did. I went in for a pedicure and dip and I was very pleased! Place is very clean and everyone was very friendly! I will be back for sure! read more

This was the first time I got my nails done by Vip Nails and I was a little hesitant but it was really really clean, everything is up to date and the service was very good. They were open before 9am which was nice because I was able to drop my son off at school and get in right away. Kim and Cindy did an awesome job on my pedi and mani. I was very impressed because normally I am very picky on my nails. I hate when other nail salons don't paint the edges or miss the sides of the nail. They were also very patient on me choosing the right color which was nice. Definitely would recommend this place and I will be going back every time. read more

This place is terrible. They make it awkward about tipping because they don't have a line for tip on the credit machine, the owner is not polite at all and the last time I went in there he was actually arguing with a customer who had a valid complaint. People are paying for a service and if the service is not good, they should not have to be awkwardly forced into paying a tip, plus the best bet is to go with the old saying "the customer is always right" and not argue with people who are wanting to spend their money in your establishment. Not to mention I had a gel manicure, and not even a week later they are chipped and completely lifting. Gel manicures have the potential to last a month if done correctly. Needless to say I won't be wasting my money in VIP nail bar again. read more
