Nails

Pretty much the best nail salon I’ve ever been too! I had a shop I loved before I moved to the area but
does even better. They have «hot gel» nails and I’m in love. Gel is good, but this is 100x better. Lisa and Amy can add length to your nails before the gel and they can be filled! Looks more like acrylic but not as bad for your nails. I can go 3 weeks in between fills and I haven’t had a nail chip yet (which is a major accomplishment)!!! So happy I found Lisa and Amy at
!

My mom and I came here for gel manicures and pedicures. The lady who did my manicure did a good job and the massage was nice but the lady who did my toes had obviously hurt her hand and could barely paint them much less give a massage. I was very disappointed. My mom said her manicure and pedicure was fine but I think her manicure looks pretty bad. I definitely will not be returning sadly.

I’ve been coming here for years! For the most part the service is excellent. Every once and awhile, I’ll get a rushed job.

The best customer care in a stress free environment. I’ve been coming to this salon for many years and I owe Lisa and the rest of the ladies at
a good review.
I’ve never experienced this level of care and satisfaction in any other salon. Ever. The ladies take care of you. You’ll spend only a few dollars more now since they started using high quality skin care products (Epoch by NuSkin) but it’s pennies for what you get. Lisa and Amy craft beautiful gel tips. They’re my top 2 for hands. You can’t go wrong with any of the ladies for pedicures. They equally do an amazing job and they give great leg massages –my favorite part!

grandma and mom loved their french tips
dad feels as though he has new feet
i am happy but i still have dry akin and calluses on my feet. Also, the buff i received wasnt thorough enough as buffed part is only the very center of my nails… im used to it by now and i could have said something but chose not to do so. i would return –earlier in the day and request moon again

Love these wonderful ladies! They do a great job with your mani/​pedi and are very considerate and thoughtful. They look to customize their approach to any style preferences you have. I have the most experience with Lisa and Amy and LOVE coming here. I highly recommend this salon

This place is inconsistent. Sometimes it’s great, sometimes I can’t wait to get out. This time, my nails look really good, but I was randomly charged $ 15 more than I paid last month. The massage for both my mani and pedi was not good. I did have one amazing massage with my pedicure the first time I went here, so I thought then that I had found a gem! Sadly, it’s not great everytime. It’s an ok place to just get a basic mani/pedi…if they kept the prices consistent. (Unless they raised their prices twice over the last few months?) The women here are friendly at least, and manicures last better than some places I’ve been.

Love
, my nails do not chip and they spend a great deal of time when rubbing your hands and legs. They are friendly and good people

I went here on a lunch break whim for a manicure and was very impressed. The polish lasted for almost 2 weeks, as did my nails. They cut and file BEFORE soaking, which is so important. So I went back for another, then another. Finally, I got a pedicure, and that was phenomenal! And, just now, I got a leg wax. Probably one of the least painful waxes I’ve ever had and my legs are so smooth. I would gladly travel here from Ramona for their services!

:(Not too happy with my 12 dollar manicure. Down in SD it’s 8 dollars and better. She didnt event paint the ends of my nails. Don’t know why it’s so hard to get a good mani. I’ll try to put up a pic. My recommendation would be to have them cut your cuticles then paint you’re own nails.

Came after work to get my eyebrows waxed. There was a few people getting pedicures, but I was taken back immediately. Very happy with my wax, and the plucking part (which is my least fave part) was virtually painless.

I really liked this place until the manicurist snipped the top of my left middle finger with the clippers. It bled all over the place and really hurt. Obviously I don’t like it anymore. Oh well.

I work right up the road from this place and always wanted to try it out. I’m so glad I did. I called the day before and booked an appointment for a mani/​pedi. When I arrived I was greeted, asked to pick out a color (there were lots of OPI options to chose from), and then quickly assigned to a station. When I sat down I asked for a specific style I saw on Pinterest and expected to get a dirty look, but to my surprise the three perfectionists that were working on me were eager to oblige. I had the privilege of being there when several regulars were there and I really appreciated that the nail technicians knew everyone’s names. I can honestly say I will be frequenting this location much more than expected.

I write almost as many nail salon reviews as I do restaurants. I had almost 2 hours to kill between work appts today and this was convenient. I still stand by my favorite, Platinum Nails in Oceanside, better prices and results.
$ 23 for the BASIC pedicure. No Callous remover, no Parrafin Wax, no Flowers.
There is nail polish on the skin and cuticles on 7 of my 10 piggly wiggly’s.
Not impressed. The place looked cleaner than most, no wait, and they did jump to help customers as they arrived.2 ladies arrived and said «oh they’re full» and started to leave, but they ushered them deeper into the salon and got them help right away.
Maybe I got a sloppy tech. She was nice enough.

Went to this place because I was A) in a hurry B) it was in the same parking lot as one of the places I bank. I will try never to use these as reasons to do anything in the future. I will also avoid this place.
All I went in for was a basic manicure prior to an interview. I like to look my best for certain things. While I understand that some of these ladies may have less than stellar English, the only two things I heard from the person who took care of me the entire visit were «I take you now, here please.» and «All done. $ 12.» I could get past that if someone else had at least asked how things were going or if I had any questions. Nothing. Nada. Zip.
Also, the person who did the work made no attempt or offer to buff my nails once the trimming and cuticle trimming were done (at rather high speed.) It was almost like they wanted to get the man out of the shop as quickly as possible.
I’ve received far better service and much friendlier attention numerous other times at too many places to list.
Bottom line — just not worth a visit, IMHO.

The Asian women that do your nails ARE NOT talking about you. They aren’t talking shit about how you’re sleepy or how stubbly your legs are. They can’t feel them with gloves on anyway. YEAHHHH!
Being a Vietnamese American, I understand 75% of all the high school-​esque chitter-​chatter that soundtracks your visit to this, and most other, nail salons. Vietnamese women are to a nail salon as Jay-​Z is to this town. They run it. Stereotype legitimized.
As the current Duchess of check-​ins for this particular location, I feel compelled to offer a review as thorough as the callous treatment I received today that revolted not only my pedicurist but myself. Living in high heels looks good, but jesus christ. I’m disgusting. Being embarrassed by a foot exfoliation shouldn’t embarrass you as much as being labeled a child-​molester when you do the voice of Elmo, but man, did it come close.
I work a 15-​minute walk away from
, which is a welcome refuge for executive lunches or early ditch days. It’s in the same food court as many of my convenient lunch options. Stick your feet in someone’s face, eat some orange chicken. RAD.
Going back to the nail ladies’ banter, girls… relax. They’re just gossiping, like men in a barbershop. Not that I’d know a barbershop at all, but I’ve gotten a fade or two in the past. The convo they’re having around you is mostly: 1) teasing each other, 2) wedding shit, 3) FOOD, and basically all the stuff that you and your co-​workers talk about.
The fact that they’re talking about their lunch being shitty just after clipping your cuticles isn’t related. They might just be kinda oblivious and don’t realize that speaking a completely foreign language in front of customers isn’t rude. Okay, they don’t know. And for that, I apologize on behalf of my race. When they figure out that I’m Vietnamese and ask me in the language if I speak it, I play dumb and say (in broken Vietnamese) «I can understand some but I can’t speak it.»
SHUT UP AND DO MY NAILZ
I digress. The only bad experience I’ve had was getting a gel French Manicure from one lady, then having another one stepping in to take over because she was failing with the white tip. The nail fail lady (whose American name starts with a K, which is like, all of them probably) who barely clips cuticles and goes through the motions without gumption, I hope to never have again. Sorry =P. But «Moon» does an awesome, 10X magnification job with cleaning cuticles, polish, and callous removal. She was kind of grimacing. I like that in an older woman. It makes me feel like an unkempt piece of shit who should tip you more because my feet are gnarly. Sorry, lady. Thank you for dealing with me being HELLA GROSS.
These women, for the most part, are hard-​working and do the trim-​soak-​cuticle push-​clip-​file-​oil-​buff-​massage and polish we all expect. The steep-​ish prices validate the convenience to my work, and the wait has never been long. And I’m not just saying this because I’m Vietnamese. There’s no bias here.
I’m gonna go drive badly now.

By far the best place for polish and eye brow wax. I have noticed that this is the only place that their polish last for days. The only thing that wasn’t quiet so impressive was the décor, and the fact that they use this clear plastic bag in the tub for pedicures. Even though they use it for sanitation, just the though of my foot being in a plastic bag freaked me out! The pedicure wasn’t the best, but the massage was the longest by far I have gotten anywhere else.

I’m always very skeptical about nail salons. The few times I had gone to nail salons prior to coming here, I’ve been cut, rushed and had poor service. But, despite my prior experiences, I came here with a friend who recommended the salon. In fact, she’s been coming here for years. I was pleasantly surprised.
Lisa is who I always see to get my gel manicure. She always does an amazing job and my nails look really natural so I don’t have that «fake» look. What’s most impressive to me is that she remembers my name and what I like even though I’ve only been a few times. It shows me she’s committed to the work she does and I appreciate the acknowledgment because I know she has many women who come into the salon.
I’ve also had a spa pedicure done by Amy and she also did an amazing job. I felt very relaxed during the message and she made my gone-​way-​too-​long-​without-​any-​care feet look good.
I have to drive 40 minutes to get my nails done — some people think I’m nuts — but I really like Lisa and Amy.

Lisa has been doing my nails for years. The salon is clean and the staff is well trained. I feel at home with all the girls. They are polite and respectful. Great service and value!

I came here for a quick mani/​pedi on my lunch break. The facility looked clean from the outside so I gave it a shot. When I walked in they sat me down right away and got to work. I think they did a really good job compared to other places. The spa chairs were clean with strong power to give me a good massage, and the girls filled it with hot water instead of cold/​tepid like the last few places.
One thing annoys me though and I notice it about most nail salons with their spa manicures. It’s the fact that they don’t work on your nails from each side of the chair! I hate when they make ME reach around to the other side! That really takes away from my relaxation and I don’t feel like I should have to work for my manicure. I guess they made up for it though with the massages that they gave ;) Unlike the many, MANY other places I have been to these girls actually give you a long massage with your services, they did a good 7 – 10 minutes each massaging my legs/​feet, hand/​arms. That’s what the manicurists are supposed to do!!! Hello to all manicurists. Please understand this, it’s detrimental to your TIPS Got your attention now, huh??? Oh, and they exfoliate your legs and feet at no extra charge! I liked the way it made my legs tingle. 4 Stars because I did not see the lady who did my manicure wash her implements at the end!!! Ughhhh totally gross, The lady doing my feet promised me that she will and always does. Ehh who knows!!! I hope so!!!
