Nails 4U

This was the worse nail experience I have ever encountered. I went here because their prices are really cheap, but in return you get ugly nails and the worse service. I got a French pedicure and a basic manicure. The water in the spa felt dirty on my legs. I don’t think they wash it after every customer. She did a very sloppy job on my nails and they ended up chipping after a few days. With my manicure, I just felt dirty afterwards. She was very rough on my hands and didn’t even take off my my clear nail polish I had on before. When it came time to pay I felt rushed. The lady went inside my purse to retrieve my wallet, which was SO RUDE. Who goes inside someone else’s purse without their permission?! With that, I gave them no tip and left. AVOID THIS PLACE. I don’t know why they haven’t been shut down yet, they should.

had to wait 10 minutes for the manicurist to finish eating her lunch/​dinner wow… been here a few times before. mediocre work, but cheapest place around the area. you get what you pay for. horrible service, only two people working. very short handed for a friday night. thanks sam.

I read all the bad reviews but honestly don’t have any negative comments. It’s a cheap option for the area, the salon is clean, and the staff is friendly. Sure, I’ve had better pedicures with a longer massage, etc. but I don’t want to pay $ 30 every time I get a pedicure so this place is more than acceptable. I took away a star only because they don’t have a large variety of polish.

Very disappointing experience at this salon. I went for a $ 10.00 manicure, which in an of itself went okay. However, when I got ready to pay with my Visa card, I put down for a 20% tip. I later discovered that my card had been charged a total of $ 17.00, which was an additional 50%over what I had written. Not cool. Won’t go back here again.

Still the worst. Nails chipped as soon as I walked out and all nails flaked off within a few days.

This place sucks they sit me. Down in a chair that the foot bath doesn’t work the water was ice cold. dodge a bullet skip this place. Worst foot massage ever she didn’t even rub my foot for a min plus she rubbed both feet at the same time. I guess u get what u pay for! Ugh get me out of this place!

I’m not sure why there’s all these bad reviews on here. I went here on a Friday during lunch, and it was delightful. The staff was very sweet, and they did a great job on my pedicure. All tools were sanitized fine. The massage chair was working perfectly. The only thing I can think of for 4 stars instead of 5 is that there were fewer staff working than needed. So the wait is longer, but very worth it. I’ll be back there. Thank you, Nails for U!

This was the worst experience ever. Stop by for manicure ($ 15.00) and was asked to wait 30 minutes (outside). I came back and they asked me if I was already there? After a very uncomfortable non English communication between a manicurists, I was seated.
First — the place is very dirty and nasty. The bawl of water I was asked to put my nails in, was there already (who knows how many people used it before me). All the instruments are never sanitized (you can clearly see the nail dust on the nail files)
The whole gel manicure took 15 minutes and it look awful!!! My cuticles were never cut or take care of, the actual nail polish is blended in with the cuticles (looks like I did my own nails for the first time)
I have to take a bath tonight, soak my hands and try ti fix it. NEVER EVER!!!

Trust that the awful reviews here are LEGIT. Worst pedicure ever. Came on lunch hour and waited 25 plus mins with feet in cold water. The pedi lasted 9 mins. I lnow because I was on my ipad. Tech jumps on phone to pay electric bill and never puts on top coat etc. then yells when i want to pay with my cc because she has to hang up personal call. I tipped $ 4 only because the woman was standing on top of me watching me fill out the receipt. Heed warning… DO NOT BOTHER!!!

If it was possible to give no stars or negative stars i would! By far the worst service of my life first of all my nail technician did NOT cut my cuticles or clean my feet she rushed me out of my chair to sit the next person she did not clean the tub (makes me wonder if she even cleaned it before i put my feet in there) while I waited for my sister to finish i looked down at my toes First my toes were all bloody. Second my nails were all uneven it was just a horrible experience NEVER ever coming here!!! The other lady with short hair on top of very RUDE she was the worst she did a pedi on my sister, she cut her toe real bad and then blamed it on her. People don’t ever go here ever do your self a favor!

Could I make it a 0 star?
The most unprofessional gel manicure I’ve got so far.
– Looks like a 5 year old drew it with a crayon. –
The lady constantly talk crap about you in their language. Plus, get ready for an hour of Vietnamese talent show singing on TV, full volume. Fun!
Besides, it’s so dirty and unsanitary my first desire was to take a SHOWER after this place. And repaint my nails. Gross.
(But for $ 15 I got what I payed for, I guess).

warning do not go here!!!
they may have lowered they prices but the service sucks big time u get what u pay for 13.99 pedicure is not worth it go somewhere elese!!! i was in ther chair for 10 min and they just basically hardly touched my feet!!! it was horrible!!!

The absolute WORST…
rude, rude… the massage chair was broken and they don’t sanitize anything. They also don’t have the basic human decency to clean the foot baths between pedicures.
GROSS.

Wandered in because they had a $ 15 gel manicure special. Well, you get what you pay for.
The salon was small, dirty and the staff uninviting to say the least.
I was asked to wait at a station full of someone’s half eaten meal and dirty silverware. Yuck.
The actual manicure was very minimal, and she was very rough when trimming my cuticles. Crooked filing, quick sloppy polish.
The only reason they get 2 stars is that it was so cheap, and after I can home and filed myself to fix the crooked shape, they look half decent.
****UPDATE reduced to one star (wish I could give zero) because the gel chipped after ONE day!!! I didn’t even know that was possible!!! Wtf??? I’ve only ever had gel chip once in my life… After a 3 weeks of intense waitressing/​dish washing… And my cuticles look even worse some how. WORST MANICURE EVER.

Worst pedicure ever! I’m sorry I came here but I had an hour to spare and this was closest to my meeting location. I figure most of these walk in places are more or less the same. Wrong! She cut my nails unevenly and didn’t file them. Whole thing was very fast and superficial. When I left, I noticed a ragged edge and had to file them again myself. Not a repeat. How can places this bad stay in business? Yikes!

I was passing by, saw the sign, and thought I could get a much needed mani/​pedi/​eyebrow wax, but what a mistake that was! I didn’t get the eyebrow wax.
They basically just removed my polish, barely (I swear– maybe 3 swipes!) used a pumice, washed my feet, clipped– maybe 4 cuticles (it seemed just for show– there was nothing on the nippers) and polished my nails. When I asked if that was the only exfoliation that would be done, the pedicurist got an attitude, got loud, and told me it was a basic pedicure, and if I wanted a fancy pedicure I could ‘go over there’ (meaning some other nail salon). She started (I cringe as I write this– but it really sounded like) yapping at another manicurist, who then took over polishing my nails. The other manicurist was actually very nice, but sadly couldn’t make up for the really bad pedicure and bad attitude.
The nice manicurist did my nails. I told her I knew she had to split the tip, but I refuse to tip someone who had an attitude and told me to go elsewhere– I’m only tipping her (the nice one). She apologized and asked me to come back– even if just one more time– and she’ll do my mani/​pedi. She said that everyone is really nice– that the other one is in a bad mood.
I may take the nice one up on her offer– but until then– and while I’m walking around with a crappy pedicure, the single star holds.

I read the previous reviews as I was getting into the pedicure chair and I was nervous! What’s with all of the bad reviews?! I was looking for any signs of bad service or quality through my time there but there wasn’t much to judge. Also, it seems like some of these reviews are from years ago and I figure they must have decent service if they are still open. My pedicure went well, the manicurist was kind and chatty with the woman working on my mom. She did a good job, using 3 coats because I chose a lighter color, and I posted a photo. Hopefully it doesn’t chip quickly!

This place is actually terrible.
I hate to leave bad reviews, especially for small businesses — since it’s so tough out there.
Super dirty — there are clipped nails all over the floor, and you’re expected to walk with your bare feet around the place.
Worst gel manicure and pedicure I’ve ever gotten. The gel manicure looks like crap and the pedicure is already chipped, which never happens to me. My nails were filed unevenly and no care was taken to do a good job. For my gel manicure, she kept twisting my fingers and was just very rough.
For my friend, she dropped the tools all over the floor and just picked them up to start using them again. Since the floor was so dirty, my friend had to ask for a different set of clean tools and she was met with a shaking of the head, resistance, and lots of muttering. After repeated requests, she put the tools in the sanitation machine.
The UV machine for setting the gel polish kept burning me. Every time I said «ow!» and took my hand out, I got a scolding and was told to put my hand back in. I kept asking her to check the machine because it was really hot and kept burning me, but the nasty looks and scoldings continued.
Overall, poorly run. Not surprised they have 1.5 stars on Unilocal,but had to share my experience. Was initially attracted by the cheap prices, but it’s really not that much cheaper and the quality is just so much worse.

Looks like I spoke too soon. Last time I went for a shellac mani & spa pedi, I received mediocre service from the woman who did my pedicure and horrible service from the man who did my shellac manicure.
For the pedicure, I had to make several requests to the woman because she did not adequately remove my cuticles and was really doing a half-​ass job. I hate to feel like I am being a difficult customer or have to micromanage a service provider. Not relaxing. That was a little annoying.
As for the shellac manicure, I have never seen this man here before, but he is by far the worst employee here I have ever seen. He cannot speak English, though he thinks he does, and I could not understand him when he kept telling me to relax my hand. He was rough with me, barked commands at me, looked angry and miserable, and did not even thank me when I paid, tipped him, or left. The worst part was that my nails started chipping and peeling off within 24 hours, and within a few days, I had to remove all of them because it was so bad. That defeats the whole point of getting a shellac manicure! I was really annoyed by the manicure. Fortunately I didn’t have to pay to get them removed, as they easily peeled off using just my fingers. Ugh.

OK this place is pretty darn bad. The FUMES as you walk in are almost unbearable and the women just chat in Vietnamese it’s not really a pleasant atmosphere.
The only «good» thing about this place is the $ 19 mani/​pedi and the fact that it’s located next to Trader Joe’s.
Now here’s the bad:
— Constant chatter in Vietnamese about god knows what
— Dirt (and god knows what) on the floor. you’re expected to walk barefooted from your pedicure to the manicurist on that floor
— Constant influx of people coming in and waiting around for their cheap manicure
— The atomoshphere here is so uninviting, I decided I couldn’t wait any longer and just walked out with my nails still not completely dried
— The environment is so disorganized, one client walked in saying she had made an appointment and there was nobody available for her
1 week later and my nailpolish is all chipped off.
