Golden Salon & Spa

Love this salon, ever since i moved to natomas i have been going here. Annie does a great job and my gel actually lasts.

First time here! This was the only place that was nearby that was open on Martin Luther King day. I usually get a French manicure with gel. I had one of the guys do my nails and it turned out to be very nice. It took him about 30 minutes and they do hand messages if you would like. I paid $ 30 and tipped him too. Everyone there is very friendly.

worst experience ever!!!
I have never been here before but read all the good reviews so my bff and I decided to get pedicures. worst experience ever. I got Ben. He was rough, nosy (asking to see my phone whenever he would hear some noise, i.e. me on snapchat), and sounded like he was sick. He kept coughing and didn’t wear a mask. Not only was he sick. But he cut my nails crooked and didn’t do a good job cutting cuticles. It was really painful. a day after. my toes got super swollen. And I figured it was just from the rough cuticle cutting, but they were so painful that I constantly soaked them in warm salt water. UM puss started oozing from the side of my big toe nail where obviously he did a horrible job. Definitely will be getting my money back and never will be returning again. If this issue gets more serious, there will be consequences.

Love them! So clean so professional and well priced!
Love the pedicure added callus treatment too!

I’ve been getting my nails done for the past 13 years, and today was the best experience I ever had! Annie did such an amazing job on my nails (acrylic tips with gel paint)! She ask me how thick I wanted the acrylic tips, filed them to the exact length I wanted them to be (that rarely happens), asked how many coats of paint I wanted, and took her time to make sure everything was perfect (even though we had discussed that she had plans after my appointment). That’s what I call customer service!
This was my second time at this salon, and I will definitely be back!

Me and my sister came at the same time and she started her mani pedi before me. They didn’t spend that much time on my massage. My toes I got a read color which turned out fine. But for my french mani I’m not to happy with it. The line is not as curved or even as I would like it to be. I think the guy was in a rush to get out the salon.

The best in Sacramento is my girl Summer! Anytime I’m in I go to her! She’s amazing at what she does and is super sweet! She knows how to make you feel relaxed and even if your on a time crunch can get the job done fast and efficient! If you go there which I hope you do please request Summer you will not be disappointed!

Best nail salon experience ive ever had. Great conversation and a great set of gel nails. I wish thus salon was local to me. I know where to come when im in Sacramento. Thank you Ben or Vin (sorry im horrible with names).

Good for a basic pedicure! Had to wait about 30 min on a Friday early evening (6pm), but since I did not have an appointment I did not mind!

Went in on a Thursday afternoon and was seated right away. I just got a gel manicure, I got a gel pedicure a couple weeks ago from them as well. I love this place because they have so many gel colors to choose from! Very clean and organized place. A guy named Ben did my nails, he did a great job!

My first time here was almost 3 weeks ago. I arrived on a Thursday right after opening. Sumer did my nails and she was amazing! Very personable and friendly. My nails are still holding up great and I’m planning to go back again sometime this week. I’ve already recommended this salon to several family members and friends. Also a plus that it’s a 5 min drive from my house! I’d also like to add that the gentleman who does hair was very friendly and attentive. Great experience overall :)

Annie is absolutely AHHHHMAZING! !! She is so sweet and extremely talented. By far the best manicurist in the Sacramento Valley! !!! I’ve gone to over a dozen and I’ve found my one true love! She is highly recommended and simply exquisite! She really takes the time to pamper you but, delivers quite a beautiful work of art! Come see Annie! You will NOT be disappointed! Xoxo Annie

Oh my gosh! I had such a great experience here! This is the first nail salon that I think is deserving of a 5 star review :) To be honest, I was in a bit of a sour mood before coming here, and was just looking for a bit of a de-​stressor to end my long week. I wanted Summer to work on my nails after reading all the great reviews and recommendations from other Unilocalers, but unfortunately, she was busy when I walked-​in. I had asked for a gel manicure and pedicure and they asked if it would be ok if my manicure and pedicure could be done at the same time, which really isn’t a big deal to me.
I had two different nail techs work on me. I did experience upselling, but nothing over the top. The woman who worked on my pedicure kindly asked if I wanted the callous removal pedicure (an extra $ 5) and wasn’t pushy about it when I declined. Even so, she did a reallllly realllly thorough job of scrubbing my feet, so now they are so soft and touchable :’)
I had Annie work on my gel manicure as I was getting my pedicure done. She is seriously the sweetest and most patient woman I have ever had work on my nails. I’m quite picky with my nails and she listened to everything I told her, and I’m so, so pleased with how my nails turned out! She even said, if within a week, I notice any chips or cracks, I can come back to the salon and she will fix the chip/​crack for me, free of charge. How sweet is that?!
I usually only write reviews for nail salons to warn people of all the bad experiences I’ve had, but I really do think this salon deserves its 4 star Unilocal rating! I would recommend this place to my family and friends. I’ve finally found my go-​to nail place now. Woo!

I decided to check this place out on a random day off and it was great! Linda did my toes and did a wonderful job and Annie did my nails! I’ll definitely be back. Thank you ladies!

I was looking for a great nail salon close by home and where I shop most, and didn’t even realize this salon was here before!
Everyone is super sweet, nice, and helpful! Beautiful salon and super clean! I got a gel manicure done by Annie and she was great! So happy with my nails and my experience — I’ll most definitely be back!

Was in the area on vacation and found this place on Unilocal.Decent price with the Unilocal special $ 29. The place was clean and nail color selection was good. The problem I have is my nails were painted poorly; nail polish on my fingers and smudged. And more importantly, my nails chipped the very next day and I didn’t wash dishes, swim, type on a keyboard… nothing!!! My daughter’s nails did the Same thing. I will not return nor refer anyone there!!!

Summer is the BEST!
Can do whatever you want or however you like your nails.
I’m super picky and she always does an amazing job!
Ask for Summer!

I was hoping this place would be the end to my never ending search for my go to nail place but unfortunately it was a let down. Not the worst nail job but certainly not the best either. I took advantage of the Unilocal deal ($ 29 for mani/​pedi). The experience was mediocre-​brief hands/​feet massage, friendly staff. But the polish application… I probably do just as well if not better. I should prob state as a disclaimer that I’m terribly picky with my nails but honestly who isn’t when you’re paying for it. If you’re looking for the best nail place in Natomas, sorry to let you down but this place ain’t it. On to the next.

Update:
I got my nails redone today as I had broken a nail. Katie did my nails (shellac) and did a great job. She offered suggestions and I got a color I wouldn’t have even thought about getting. I love the gray with some sparkle. I’ll continue coming back! Thank you!

I needed a last minute pedicure and saw a deal for a mani/​pedi on the Unilocal App for Golden Spa. The Golden Spa is located in the shopping center across from Sizzler and In and out. Parking was easy and I was greeted by one of the owners immediately.
After choosing a color (they use the OPI and China Glaze Brands), I walked over the spa pedicure chairs. They put saran wrap around the acryclic tub and added a small crystal looking pod turning the water into different colors. I waited for about 15 – 20 minutes and my nail technician finally came by. I told her that I wanted the $ 39 basic pedicure and manicure special. She was pretty aggressive, quick and detailed — so detailed that she cut one of my toenails too short. I didn’t realize how much it hurt until I walked over to the manicure station. I pointed it out to her and she did not apologize. Instead, she said it’s supposed to be that short.
During the manicure, she was being persistent on getting the gel polish manicure, which was $ 10 more. My nails ended up having ragged edges and didn’t have that clean manicured look. I pointed out that the nail polish needed to be cleaned up on the outer edges of my nail. She said it will look like that now, but will be fixed once the gel sets. What? At this point, I just wanted to get out of there so I paid and left.
I probably just had a one off experience, but the salon looks very clean and has one of the cheaper nail services in the Natomas area.
