Ericka R.

I have so much to say, after coming here for over a year I just stopped going and I am updating my review since the day I posted was the second or third time I had been here. Let me say, for all you who are regulars with this high Maintenance monthly mandatory visit at least twice a month for well kept manicures/gel/acrylic and Pedicures YOU KNOW how expensive it can get. I didn't mind paying her $50 for acrylic gel fills BUT GIRL at least have the decency to PROVIDE good customer service. Plus my pedi was $22 who was always done by Twee(Maria) who is the best one hands down I would still go there for her BUT the Fat Vietnamese lady who usually sits in the first manicure chair is Such a UGLY Character I don't know how she runs a business with that ugly attitude. She Is NOT taking my money ANY MORE! I work hard for my money to go and spend it there to be relaxed NOT stirred up because you want to RUSH through my fill and ruin my nails and you get MAD bc I'm calling you out on fixing two lumps of acrylic on two different fingers and you chose to ignore me and speak Vietnamese to all the staff when I'm in your face and I KNOW you are talking sh** (Which this was the first time I ever really complained about anything after all these months) that's what really upset me and the reason why I'm writing this review. Plleeeaaaaaaaaassseeee, after all these months of paying minimum $150 a month for your services. NOT INCLUDING my Cash Tips of $10-$20 each visit. If you would have listened to my 1st request which I asked very nicely and I even checked with the girl sitting next to me to see if I was tripping and she was agreeing to the two lumps being super obvious. This B**** still proceded to place the gel polish. So I let her finish her work and at the end I told her to redue it completely bc I was unhappy with the out come of three nails total. At this point this Lady is MAD heated like me! But the difference is I'm Paying you, your job is to fix it and do it right and if you would have listened to me instead of talking your Sh** in your language then you would of saved time money and polish. Either way, Beware the place is beautiful the first and second visit might be nice but then if you ain't tipping $10+ per service and paying her. What she feels she wants to charge she will eventually be a B to you to too! If you do choose to come here and have to deal with this B then you should ask how much your services will be before you sit in her chair bc depending on her MOOD and how SHE feels that day that's how much she will charge you! No matter if it's a fill or full set! Don't get ripped off, and get stuck with shit service. P.S. Then she hired a new guy who worked on my nails the last time I was there, he was nice but dam 2 Nails Flipped off of 3 days later WTF!!!?????? I'm over ZNails. Z nails is a great nail shop besides the fact that the one running it is a straight *i*CH. She is the Fatest heavy set Vietnamese lady who will charge you whatever she want Depending on her MOOD. Beware.

Always get my nails done here with hatby. Always leave super happy.They never lift, never break and I work in water and with my hands all the time. Always recommend Everyone to come here

Open on Sunday. Make appt otherwise it gets busy. Had a manicure done, Susan was the nail tech. She was friendly fast and efficient. My nails came out smooth and no lumps And it was not thick as other places, she even help recommend another color to match what I wanted. I had a nice hand massage after my nails were done. Lots of color to choose from, place seemed clean and modern. I needed my nails fixed as my previous gel nails started to chip and I only had it for a week. Prices are comparable to other salons. I waited a week and a half to write this review just to make sure my nails were still ok and they are. They prefer cash only but they do take credit cards but they charge .80 for the transaction fee. Definitely a place to come back to but make an appointment.

Love doing my acrylics here!

Love doing my acrylics here, Kandee is very attentive to detail and takes her time while doing my nails, which I love. I tend to stay away from nail shops that make their customers feel rushed, even on busy days I feel like they're very attentive and give great results. One of my favorite nail places in SL.

My real nails  shellac on point. Kathy's helping me grow my real nails.

I've never had a nail lady until now... I first came here in May after getting my nails done in union city. Susan initially helped me with a fill, she did a dope job. Those nails lasted for two months until the nails started to break. (I'm a single mom so I don't have time to go to the nail shop regularly.) After I came back to get a fill, Kathy helped me out. My nail buds are super big, as you can tell in the picture. So normally nail techs grab the largest nail and try to stretch it out. Not Kathy... I kid you not, I sat there and watched her cut one nail tip, then proceed to cut another nail tip in order to create a LARGER NAIL TIP... from then on I was stuck... plus they're very welcoming and have positive vibes. The third time I went to Kathy, my nails grew so much I decided to remove the fake nails and just put a hardener on my actual nails. In the picture below, it's my actual nails with shellac on top... this is probably about a month old? I need to go back soon, but I promise you I'm only going to Kathy from now on... I'm tired of being disappointed by fake ass nail techs. This place is worth the money, If you're looking for something cheap, don't come here. If you're looking for something actually worth the time and money, goto Kathy or Susan.

Damaged pinky nail

This lady is SOOOOOOO UNPROFESSIONAL. I booked an appointment for a fill at 6 O'Clock . I arrived at 5:50. Washed my hands ( as required). Signed her COVID forms (as required) . Sat down and she damaged my nail with her nail tool( not sure what it's called). I asked her why she did that and she said she had to in order to fill it... I was willing to do it her way and pay the whole fee for a full set (which would be $100) and she said she no longer wanted to do it. Guess what her excuse was.... she said she's been waiting for me and I was her 2nd client of the day. I said.." how have you been waiting for me when my appointment is scheduled for 6PM??" And she repeats herself . So I got up and left - she didn't even bother to fix the damage she made . Complete WAIST OF TIME . DO NOT---- I repeat ---DO NOT COME HERE. Her energy is unprofessional and negative. Don't waist your time or money at this place . If allowed this facility would get ZERO STARS -

This is usually my go to nail salon since it is so close to my house. They always do a great job on my nails when I get a fill or full set. This last visit I decided to get a pedicure and basically what happend was they cut the side of my big toe nail off thinking it was an ingrown, but they were wrong and it was bleeding for about 15 minutes and is now swollen and hurts really bad. I'm not mad because I really like the staff, but they really need to be more careful. I am hoping my toe nail grows back normal without causing an actual ingrown to actually happen now. I don't think I should have been charged for this device since they hurt my toe so bad, but oh well. Not sure if I will ever get a pedicure here again though.

Horrible customer service by the owner. My finger was injured by the male nail tech. The owner was extremely difficult when I asked for a discount for an injury HER staff member inflicted. When I asked for a discount. I don't want to give any stars, but unfortunately I have no choice

Horrible nothing like before

Yup another one bites the dust. I won't be back. First of all I had an appointment at 4 that was not honored, I arrived 10min before said time. Looks as if Kathy was just getting started doing acrylic on a ladies nails. Seemed a lil surprised that I said I had an appointment with her at 4, but whatever, check your appointment you'd know who/what's on your schedule for the day. Kathy then moved that lady to the pedicure chairs and then wrapped my nails and then told me to wait. Kathy then grabs another customer, I thought to myself ok this shouldn't be too bad, she's only getting 3 nail repairs. No she got 3 nails fixed and a fill! I watched Kathy service this woman from start to finish while I'm stuck sitting with my nails wrapped in foil. I can't leave. Finally it's my turn, it's about 4:30-4:40.....we go thru the whole manicure process. Time to polish, I ask for French manicure. I specifically came here for French manicure, Kathy has done them in the past and I loved it. Not this time. She rushed thru the paint job, refused to do the "clean-up" , I told her I wasn't happy, she basically shrugged her shoulder and said if I wanted to change the color, she'd have to re-wrap my nails and she was gonna charge me. No, here's what we're going to do, you can finish painting my nails and just charge me for a gel manicure, no extra charge for the French tips, and I'll be on my way. I don't even want the lame ass massage they try to give with the manicures. Kathy said, ok next time you come back don't ask for me. No lady, you missed it. I WON'T BE BACK! $22.85.....85cent charge for using my card IS your tip! Never mind I was just there the week prior and had gotten a pedicure with the co-owner who thought she was too good to do pedicures. Let's not forget the the self-appointed neighborhood watch that monitors the nail shop and the tattoo place next door, felt the need to butt in and tell me that they have two people for nails and two people for pedicures. Ummm MYOB! Go at your own risk!

I came here this afternoon for a spa pedicure. This is my second time coming and I was happy coming back after my first regular pedicure here. I opted for the spa pedicure because my feet were in need of some serious pampering. The guy who did my feet did a great job removing callous and dead cuticles from my feet and toes. He also did a great job of massaging my feet and legs with the menthol scrub. This is one of the newer nail spas in San Leandro. The spa is well lite and very clean. They have quite the selection of nail polish colors and nail designs available to suit your mood. They have massage chairs that you can use while your getting your feet and hands done. I enjoyed the hot towels they use to finish the spa pedicure. The towels smell Downy fresh. The staff is very professional and courteous. They also don't rush you to get another customer into the chair. You can park on the street and there's a two hour parking limit. This place is also accessible by public transit an AC Transit bus goes by here. It is also walkable as it is not too far from bart since it's in downtown San Leandro. I recommend this place for anyone looking for a great pedicure or manicure. I will be coming here again on a regular basis.

First time here, and I will definitely come back. Got a pedicure and a full set

After a year, I went back for a pedicure and a new nail set (paid $60) It was a Thursday, 5 days later I had to go back because all the nails were falling off. (They did not believe that they had done that job) they removed the nails ("saying" don't worry about the money) and they put a new set for me. And in the end they made me pay $20. It's been three weeks and nails are falling off again. Good place for a pedicure, just a pedicure..

$74 dollars for what???!!!!!

That really stressed my mother. We were under the impression that it was, but in hindsight, I don't think was specifically asked. The massage lady (can't remember her name) did say she would be happy to help my mother in, but the massage lady was 15 minutes late. I wasn't going to go in with my mother, but since it started out a bit confusing, I did. The massage lady is probably experienced, but elderly disabled people seems to annoy her. I could see that my mother was getting more and more stressed, so we left in 15 minutes. The massage lady charged us full price. We understand that we had booked for an hour and that if we hadn't, someone else could have filled that slot. It's hard to find people who are good working on older people. This one really works only on younger people - it's not therapeutic ---- she's more of a recreational day spa type.
