I was in the area for a hair appointment and did a walk-in here. I was seen right away so that was nice. My nails were grown out a bit and painted black coming in and I wanted to switch up the color a little bit for my birthday but nothing too crazy. I decided on a blush colored cat eye polish. The woman who did my service was nice and quiet. I'm not generally a chatty person when I'm getting something done somewhere so I had my headphones on watching dramas. She was gentle with my hands which I appreciated. I've been some places where my wrist hurts afterwards. The only questions she asked was how short to cut them and if I liked the shape. The shape is different than what I came in with but it doesn't look bad. They have a bit more of a rounded apex when you look for the side and I like them more flat but it's not a big deal. It's just preference. I also got my eyebrows waxed. There's a small room right are the beginning of the hallway that is overcrowded for its size but serves its purpose. She was quick and efficient with my eyebrows. No complaints. The general feel of the place of slightly crowded because they have a lot of stations and pedicure chairs. The staff that didn't have clients were just scattered around doing their own thing. It seems like a nice place. Calm. I would go back if I needed to in a pinch and my regular person isn't available. read more

Love this nail salon, prices are competitive and the ladies here do a fantastic job with both manicures and pedicures! Don't forget to ask for a stamp card because every time you go, you accumulate stamps for a discounted service. This is a Vietnamese nail shop and some of the ladies speak great English. I like the vibes because it doesn't smell like a traditional nail salon that is flooded with the scent of nail polish. This shop is located in a nice plaza with plenty of parking and many options to eat. Check them out and don't forget to tip them for their hard-work! read more

Lots of parking, and there were a number of regulars in there. They offer you a drink (water, tea...) when you sit in the comfy seats. Good pedicure, though the callus scrub treatment was cursory and the technician was a bit rough with the metal cuticle tool. Tons of gel/acrylic colors but there didn't seem to be as many regular polish colors. They offer a stamp card, if you go back 10 times you get a discount or free service add-on. read more

Cindy is amazing, she gives the best pedicure! The woman running the salon (Julie?) is not very professional...I observed her interaction with the customer next to me, the customer was trying to tell her how she wanted her toenails filed, and Julie was not listening, she was arguing. She was very rude. And then she gave me the 3rd degree when I was paying about how I booked my appointment, what number did I call, etc. She picked up a VIP business card and circled the phone number, telling me that is the only number I should call for appointments. It was very rude and petty, and was not my first unpleasant encounter with Julie. She needs some customer service training.... read more

I currently have powder on my natural nails, it's helped them grow and lasts much longer than gel. I've been coming to VIP for the past couple of fills and gotten my nails done by Miso, Helen and most recently, Jasmine. They all do such a fantastic job and really take their time shaping the nails and ensuring the powder isn't too thick. Design wise - Jasmine is amazing at executing new and abstract designs, especially ones that may be hard to find at other nail salons. So if you're looking for a design off Pinterest, I'd recommend Jasmine & making an appointment ahead of time. read more

I went in to get my acrylic nails removed professionally and get a manicure afterwards. The lady performing the service was LeeLee or so she told me that was her name. Instead of soaking my fingers in acetone she proceeded to chip my nails off , I told her it hurt and if she can do it another way, she said my nails were practically already falling off so it wouldn't be necessary so she continued and I kept expressing signs of pain and discomfort but I didn't say anything anymore because i figured my nails were probably sensitive/ damaged... until I look over and see that my pinky has a literal dent in it because of how unprofessionally she had been chipping and removing my nails. I then told her that really hurt and that it did not look okay . She said it's okay it'll grow back in a few days, I told her to forget about the nail polish portion of the manicure because I wasn't about to put polish over it nor have just one nail not painted she then proceeded to try and convince me that my nail was okay to buy gel nail polish on and it wouldn't affect it .. mind you they're moisture coming out of my nail . I say no and she try to offering painting all my other nails , again I said no because I don't go to a nail salon to come out looking ratchet with one nail not painted because she hurt me . And it's true I've never ever ever had something like this happen to me and I've gone into places to removed a week old set of nails before ... these nails were almost weeks old but still on pretty good which is why I went in . The lady that charged me was nice and kept apologizing and gave me a discount which was nice . read more

Pretty average. Enjoyed the customer service until it came time to pay. I guess my five dollar tip was not "good enough" for my basic manicure and pedicure. I don't enjoy being asked for more money when I am just "meh" about my services after spending $60. I will continue looking for a nail place that provides the correct color and expectations that I would be thrilled to Yelp about. read more

Saturday morning I arrived for a quick and simple pedi. I was greeted at the front entrance before entering the door and was asked if I had a mask and if not I'd be provided with one. Of course I had my own. I was allowed to enter and was quickly seated. After waiting for about 20 minutes in running water, no salt, no soap or anything, my tech began the rushed pedi process withoutaskingme which service I preferred. I understand that it was Saturday morning and possibly understaffed. My point is that I was not allowed to enter the establishment without a mask even though the mask mandate was lifted 4 days earlier. I am fully vaccinated. Plus, they did not treat me as if I was a paying customer. A lady walked in without her mask for nail services and she was NOT stopped at the door and refused entry without a mask. She was allowed to enter WITHOUT A MASK!!! I felt singled out and this was unfair to me. At the end they charged me an extra $5 to remove the gel nail color they charged me $15 extra for last time.. will not be patronizing this establishment in the future even though I've been supporting this business over 3 years. Equality is key especially when you are a minority. I support Asian business and I feel that I was singled out which is unfair since I spend lots and tip big each visit. Again, I won't be back!! read more

I just finished getting my dip powder nails done at VIP Nails and as usual, they are beautiful!! I brought in a picture of what I wanted and she exceeded my expectations.

I highly recommend VIP Nails to everyone who wants their nails done right! 2/10/2023--Update: So, it has been 24 days since I got my nails done and I have to show you all how good they still look.

I went in on a Sunday mid afternoon and they sat me down pretty quickly. Had to come in for a fill and I showed her an inspo picture from Pinterest and got to it. BiBi was very precise and cared for the health of my nails. The place where I got mine done before coming here was drilling away at my skin near my fingernail. She was gentle around that area and made sure to file it all away unpainfnully. Would recommend this place for those in the area. I paid about $50 for this fill because of the design. They have free WiFi and different accommodations as well. No need to drive out of the area for me. Would definitely come again and bring some friends too Don't forget to request BiBi too! read more

Such a horrible experience. Probably my worst experience ever getting nails done. I took my two daughters and myself for a gel manicure, and we had appointments. They were obviously overbooked and tried to do our nails very quickly. My daughter sat in the chair and was done under 10 minutes. She didn't soak her nails or do her cuticles or lotion. When I complained, they did her lotion really quickly. For my gel manicure all the gel polish completely peeled off my nails the very next day. Didn't even last one day. The other lady at the counter was super rude to an elderly woman who said the water was too hot and snapped at her. I couldn't believe it. I will never spend my money there again!!! read more

After weeks of taking a break from gel and dips, I went here and was eager to get back to nice looking nails. Welllllll....2 weeks later I went to a different salon and they had to soak off my nails because underneath was all yellow and peeling. The new salon said that the nail tech had the dip on so thick that when I would wash my hands, shower, etc., the soap and water stayed there and essentially grew fungus. I wanted to throw up. Another thing to note, they said the tools were probably not clean. In all the years I have done my nails, YEARS!!!!!! I have NEVER had this happen before! So disgusting! read more

Audrea is not my usual lash tech, I was in a bind because I was in desperate need of a fill but my…read moreusual tech was all booked. She seemed very nice, easy to talk to, and I appreciated her fair pricing. Also she had very good reviews on Yelp. I saw her on 12/27/22. But since I don't go to her normally I couldn't help but compare her to my usual girl. Mind you I have been getting my lashes done religiously for 2 years now. Firstly, she told me I needed a new set (initially booked for a fill) to which I thought, "Fair, she's the expert, I'll go with her advice." She could've been way more gentle when removing the existing extensions. She pulled at the extensions and rubbed at them with whatever remover she used which irritated my eyelids. But I let that go because that part passed pretty quickly. Another thing I noticed is she didn't ask what shape or length of lashes I wanted. I'm used to being asked those things, plus if I'm ok with the length of extensions they're going to apply, etc. When I got home, however, I examined my lashes in the mirror and found that I couldn't brush through them. Somehow there was glue on the the tips of the extensions which I found weird. Also I noted during my appointment she had placed a full set in under 2 hours. Fast forward to today (1/10/23), and I finally got an appointment with my usual girl. She said the fans were unusually easy to remove, despite me washing them every other day and brushing them (when they allowed). She also said she could tell they were premade fans, which isn't always the way to go in my experience. The way they're glued together makes for a very unnatural appearance. She noted that there were multiple fans on one lash which weighed them down and she found a few that were stuck together. So all of this told me that it was a more rushed appointment rather than her being efficient. Overall, I'm not saying don't go to her or anything, I just want her to see this review and hopefully use it as constructive criticism and improve her techniques in the future.

I have been going with Audrea for over 10 years and she continues to excel all of my expectations!…read moreShe is always learning new techniques and offers her clients the best quality service! Thank you Audrea for always being your lovely self!

I chose a simple green gel polish for my toes, but the finish was uneven and bumpy.

My nail tech was very nice and did try to adjust them when I mentioned that they looked almost completely white, but the finished result still wasn't quite what I was hoping for. There were quite a few customers in the salon, and based on the many positive reviews, I'm sure others have had great experiences here. Unfortunately, my experience just wasn't the same.

BEWARE of this nail shop! STORY TIME - It all started on today, on this beautiful Sunday morning. I was out running errands and decided to try a new nail salon in Chula Vista, CA (Eastlake), VIP NAIL SALON, to be exact. DISCLAIMER - At no time did I display any dissatisfaction, anger, frustration, nothing at all, I simply was out enjoying my day and was feeling joyful and grateful to just be alive! Once I was seated one of the ladies asked me what color I wanted and I said pale pink. I opened my phone to look at my nail collection that I had saved to show the lady my nail color. I noticed there was a lot of talking going on between the two ladies as I looked up the one lady was looking directly at me. My intuition said at this point to pay attention. I hit translate and my intuition was right, they were talking about me and it wasn't nice! I got up to walk out and when I told the woman that I knew what she said, she looked astonished and crazy! Yep, l got you and now you are MAD! Don't be sugar pie, you got busted. To be clear successful people are usually always busy, but the difference is shallow people (YOU) talk about people because that's all YOU can do because YOU are not happy with who YOU are. In terms of being bothered, not at all, it's just with all of the many blessings that God had bestowed upon me, the bible says that "to whom much is given, much is required", so yes, I am busy enjoying life unlike you. I took SCREENSHOTS of what they said AND a SCREENSHOT of the nasty message "F my time"message they sent to me to prove my point, so they cannot lie because we know they will lie every second they get. Granted I did not get the whole conversation, so I can only imagine the nasty things they were saying about me. We must absolutely STOP SPENDING OUR MONEY IN ESTABLISHMENTS THAT DO NOT WANT US THERE. Honestly, this was a great experience and was eye opening for me. #LESSON-LEARNED read more

Ivy did a wonderful job with my mani/pedi! She does full-body massages too and I will be coming back for one of those based on her mini massage I got with the mani/pedi! Cons: not as updated as some other places nearby and it took rather long to get in/out as compared to other places, though I think they were taking more time with me to do a perfected job since it wasn't too busy that day at all. All in all, I'll be back. read more

It hasn't even been a week (only been 4 days) and already 3 of my acrylics fell off. Although I have short nail beds, I've been getting acrylics on and off for the past 14 years and I've never had them fall off this fast. After I got home... I even had to file and re-shape them because of how uneven each nail was. The acrylics have no base curve and they're all flat and thin. They also weren't fully filled to the cuticle of the nail. So overall I don't think acrylics are really their specialty. My pedicure.. I got the higher end pedicure option with the callus remover and I left with my feet still rough on the bottoms. The polish was nicely done but I wish I just got the basic pedicure. Sadly won't be going back, even to get my nails fixed. 2 stars because of how nice the ladies were and the polish was.

Today, the quality was lacking but I know that's not usual. I was quoted a 15 minute wait time and waited 25-30. They were really nice and gave me water. I also had to have gel paint removed from my toes, so that took an extra 10mins (no extra charge). Although, the menu says a pedicure is 25 mins, I was there an hour not including my wait time. In the end she didn't massage my legs or do lotion, just some oil and a hot towel. They didn't even help me put my sandals back on, she just went straight to the desk to wait for me to pay. If the pedicure process has changed, I'd prefer the menu description options reflect that. I noticed a difference in customer service as time went on and I declined a manicure. Oh well.
