last weekend i came in for a removal and full set here for the first time but left feeling like i…read morewasted $55 and two hours of my time. when i first sat down, my nail tech told me they don't offer ombré or glitter polish at the salon, only basic design, so i thought maybe basic color sets would be their specialty. after removing my previous set, they nicked the skin around my cuticles with the nail drill a few times, leaving small cuts (refer to pics). later on, when i asked them to file my nails a little more and apply nail polish in areas they missed, they became upset and told me my nails were fine. they didn't ask if i was pleased with my set, applied a small drop of cuticle oil on each hand that wasn't enough to cover each cuticle, and hurried me to the register. to anyone looking for an affordable nail salon in davis with good service and quality, i would recommend trying another nail salon.

I called and said I would like to get acrylic on my nails, they saw me and told me we don't want to do ur nails.

I came here before a wedding to get a gel manicure and pedicure done, and I'm glad I did! I need to…read moreget my nails done moving forward. I'm definitely coming here. The staff were so friendly and so communicative, and I felt like I was really being taken care of. The service is performed were wonderful and I had such a great time feeling pampered. I think it was worth the extra cost compared to the other nail salons in the area. One thing to know: the power went out at some point, and it was really awesome to see that they were prepared for a power outage with battery, powered supplies, lamps, and other things. The shop itself is really cute, very clean aesthetic while being warm. The only downside is that it's in downtown so you have to find downtown parking but luckily there's tons of street parking nearby. I wish I had remembered to take pictures of my own nails, but I was so rushed for the wedding. But I've attached a photo of my technicians nails, which were pink in themed and so freaking adorable.

I heard that Phoebe does great acrylic work, so I booked an appointment with her. She was so easy and fun to talk to! She was great at offering advice and even better at providing me with a nice, natural manicure. I think I've found my to-go nail place in Davis and will definitely be back every time I need my nails done. It's also such a good sign that they have so many loyal returning customers.

I'm a guy and I can confidently say this was the best manicure of my life. The technician was…read moreincredibly precise and knew exactly what she was doing -- especially when it came to cleaning up and finding all the dead skin around my nails without being rough. She paid attention to every detail, didn't rush anything, and made sure everything looked clean and healthy by the end. The hand massage was also top-tier, and the hot towel finish was the perfect way to wrap it all up -- super relaxing and honestly next-level. If you're someone who thinks manicures are just a quick trim and done, this will change your mind. Professional, thorough, and absolutely worth it. I'll definitely be coming back.

Minimal service I…read morecame here for the first time since my usual nail salon is about two hours away and I was hoping to find something closer. I requested a full removal of builder gel, a trim back down to my natural nail length, and then a regular gel polish. The removal itself was fine, but I did feel a little uneasy because the technician using the electric drill was frequently looking away from my nails while the drill was still pressed down. Once the gel color was applied, I asked for what I thought was a fairly simple leaf design. The first attempt unfortunately looked very messy and uneven--almost like a child had drawn the leaves. I ended up waiting for another technician to finish her client so she could redo the design. The second tech did improve it, but the process took much longer than expected. Overall, the solid color gel application was fine, but it seems like more practice may be needed for nail art designs.

I looked up places on Yelp and came across this one, so I decided to give it a try. I called to inquire about their availability, and they responded that they were able to take me that day. Upon getting to the nail salon I was greeted by these two wonderful ladies and immediately loved their customer service. Lee did my dip powder manicure. She was very detail-oriented and very accommodating. She frequently asked if I liked my nails and if something needed to be fixed she would take care of it right then and there. I decided to go with a baby blue color and when I tell you she exceeded my expectations, SHE DID. I usually dislike getting my nails done because they either come out uneven or the nail tech cuts me but Lee was so meticulous AND she was quick. My pedicure was done by Lenna. She was so gentle and careful with my feet. She would also ask me if I liked the shape, color, etc. I really enjoyed my experience here. Whenever I'm in town I will certainly be coming back.
