CDA Nails

I tend to have mixed feelings about these Asian nail salons that we have in town.
Granted, this nail salon is better than most that I’ve ventured to in North Idaho.
Their gel manicures are pretty decently priced at $ 30 and seem to last like they are supposed to.
The acrylic services here are hit and miss and how nice they will turn out depends on who you get to do them. The main owner of the store is this nice guy who does a fantastic job on your acrylics. But when I went in for my fill, I was stuck with a lady who did a horrible job and the fill wasn’t even worth the money. She left horrible air bubbles in 5 out of 10 nails and they ended up coming off within the week.
The pedicures that I’ve received there also depend on who you get as your tech.
They accept walk ins as well as appointments. I’ve had good and bad experiences with both so it’s your choice. I’ve walked in and out with amazing nails in 45 min, and then I’ve made an appointment and waited 45 min to an hour after my appointment time for them to even start. It’s your choice.

My fiancé got a gel manicure yesterday and couldn’t be happier with her experience! She made an appointment only an hour before She wanted her nails done and they accommodated her without any difficulty. I don’t think an appointment is necessary because they had many walk-​ins while She was there and took them all without any problems. Her nail technician was named Tee (sp?) and she was sweet and efficient. Everyone there was very friendly. The store was clean, well maintained and she’ll definitely be back!

When the Winco grocery store was built near my home recently… I was very excited to see a nail salon open in the adjacent strip mall. I have been going to CDA Nails and Spa since March of this year and I just fell in love with the owners and the staff! Lee and Holly take such good care of my needs and are always friendly, even make accommodations for my schedule and get me in if they are busy. Pedicures are relaxing and the gel manicures always get me compliments! If you are near by — stop in, let them pamper you; you will not be disappointed!

I tried reading Unilocal reviews before choosing a nail salon to go to but most nail salons have hardly any reviews so I bumped into this one while out and about and decided to give it a try.
I walked into the salon and they took me right away. I had a pedicure first. Which was just fine. At the end The girl who did my pedicure told a guy she was almost done and he would do my fill. He then went outside smoked a cigarette and came back in right as I sat down to his table. I couldn’t breathe. I told him the smoke was really bothering me and all he said was Sorry. I tried to sit there and couldn’t. I said I would come back another time and then a young girl offered to have someone else do my nails. I spoke with her while I waited for the other nail tech to become available. She was the highlight of my visit. Super sweet girl. So after a few minutes the tech sat down. I explained to her that I just moved her from SF, CA. I have been getting my nails done forever. I have a shape I like and getting the shape is the most important to me. I explained what I liked and she said no problem, easy and started.
She hit my cuticles multiple times. And barely filed my nails. She kept rounding them when I already explained to her I wanted blunt and narrow. She then handed me the file and picked up her phone and started texting. Really? Do I get a discount for filing my own nails? (no I didn’t)
I got home and one of my nails broke instantly, I glued it back on ratchet style cause I didn’t want to go back there to get it fixed.

Never again will I step inside this salon. I called for a pedicure; I got a gent named Denny. He was the rudest nail tech I have EVER encountered (I’ve been having my nails done since 1989!). He acted like I was a burden being there, instead of a paying customer. He grunted and groaned like he was in pain, and then, literally cut my foot/heel…just above the heel about where your shoe hits, with the buffer. He was so rough. Pedicures are usually nice and relaxing. Not this one. Just extremely rude. This is my second trip to this salon (I was hoping the first bad experience was a fluke). The first nail person (also a man) was bad enough, but this Denny guy… just absolutely a ZERO in customer service. Don’t waste your time or money.

We were late to our appointment due to bad weather, however the owners were very accommodating and made sure we were pampered in style. I will be definitely be back!

Highly recommend this nail salon! The owner and technicians are very friendly and competent. Very short wait and then I was seated for my excellent pedicure. Clean salon with nice equipment and much color selection. Sit back, enjoy the massage chairs, fun conversations and good shows on the television. Thoroughly enjoyed my experience, thank you Lee! I wish you much success.

I love this place! The only place I go to get my nails done. Another late wrote a review about how she hated the owners and the lady working there, but they since have new owners and they’re fantastic! Highly recommend this nail salon!

One of the best nail places I’ve been to! Clean, very friendly, and great nails! Got acrylics and it was the best I’ve ever had done.

I have tried many places around here but none of them had as great of service or did my nails as perfectly as they have here most places treat me like I don’t matter but here I was treated very nicely I always go here and don’t plan on going anywhere else

Great gel pedicure for me and a pedicure for my husband — new owners are great and very attentive — super job — we will be back!!!

I have gotten both a mani and a pedi here. The atmosphere is nice and my nails turned out great both times. My only guff is that they do not have the cheesy flip flops to walk from the pedi chairs to the dryers.

Worst place I have ever went to. Only had two people working on a Saturday afternoon. One of then smelled like cigarettes so bad it was discussing. The other was rude the howl time I was there. Will NEVER go back

New nail salon in CDA. Very clean and professional with a nice selection of gel colors. Since they are new, would recommend calling for an appointment in advance, even though they take walk-​ins. Rather quick as well, which is always a bonus.
