First and last time here. The woman was nice but I was so incredibly disappointed with the experience. First off, when my friend and I walked in, the atmosphere was unfriendly. This woman kept trying to push us to get a pedi but we both said mani's only. We get asked if it's our first time and it was so as she was speaking with Susan (my friend had her and she was great to her btw) I expected that we would have a good first impression but boy was I wrong. I asked the lady to make my nails square with rounded edges, she made them rounded. Whatever. I'm honestly not that picky when people make mistakes because it was a confusing request and I try to be sensitive to language barriers as I am also not a native English speaker. Okay, so... I ask for a gel mani in a light grey polish and she tried giving me a glitter polish so I show her which one I originally wanted and she came back with a dark grey. Whatever. Again, I'm not picky and I figured she didn't have the exact color so I just nodded and agreed to it. She proceeded to do my nails and I think her eyes were tired because it seemed like she was having a hard time focusing. (She left some polish on my skin but that's not a big deal for me) The work was overall okay. I thought the experience was going well after all of the mistakes because she ended up massaging my back and oiling my arms and hand. It was relaxing! Then we get to the cash register and she informs us that it'll be a $1 charge to use our debit instead of cash... Okay, sure. Then she informs us that our total will be $31 for a gel mani?? (I'm reading some of the comments here now and they averaged around 23 or so, so it was definitely too much) When I was waiting to get over-charged, I notice the prices and saw that a "oil, massage, and hot towel treatment" is around $7 (to be honest I don't remember the exact prices) so I'm pretty sure we got scammed into paying more than we should have. Long story short: This lady tried pressuring us with an unnecessary pedi, forced me to get a color I didn't want, in a shape I didn't want, and pay for a service I didn't ask for?! I'm assuming she did this because we were first timers so we wouldn't know what the prices were going to be and wouldn't expect us to be so vigilant. I still paid the stupid 36 (including the tip... you verbally have to tell her how much you want to tip her if you're using your debit so of course I wasn't going to be like "no tip" to her face) and I just wanted to get out of there and never come back so that's what I'm doing. Such a shame! read more

This place is fantastic. Not only is it extremely cheap, it is clean, sterile and the color stays on my nails for weeks without chipping. I have been to other places in the city that are $40 for a pedicure and the color chips the next day. The manicurists at Nail today are professional, nice and extremely good at their jobs. My manicures don't chip for weeks!! Nail Today is an amazing salon. I have told many of my friends to go there and they all keep going back. This salon is amazing - you will never want to go anyplace else! read more

I had a very great experience at the salon. The atmosphere is very relaxing. I highly recommend the Deluxe Pedicure.

This is a wonderful nail shop. I've taken many other people to have their nails done by the group of manicurists who work here. Kim did a great job with my hands and feet for seven or eight years before I had to go into a nursing home. If I had any way to get back to Nail Today now, I would still be going there. They are very dedicated and devoted to their clients, and their work is impeccable. Don't pass up the chance to have great nails done at this shop! read more

This is my favorite place of the many salons around. Prices are good, everyone is nice and they do a great job. I get gel nails and theirs last longer without peeling than any place I've been, often 3 to 4 weeks or more. Good massages with mani and pedi and even hot stones with pedi. Also a really calm, chill place. Highly recommended! read more

My friend and I loved this nail spot. The service is fantastic and everyone is so friendly. They really know how to make you feel comfortable. There are usually so many options when it comes to where to go to get your nails done and the little things really make a difference. Great service all around. Will definitely come back! read more

They did a great job here on me and my sister love my nails! And they're so sweet here

Susan is a gem! I have never been so happy with a mani/pedi in my life. My friend and I came in very late and they still took us no complaints! The treatment is so relaxing and the ladies take their time to make sure everything is done right. They even gave me a cup of tea! The best part is, since my manicure, my nails have never been so healthy! They are getting long! I can't wait to go back! read more

Great pedi! Super thorough and a wonderful foot massage too. All at a very competitive price! Only thing is that I'm used to rushed quick pedis so I didn't budget enough time! Will definitely be back! read more

I've been a customer for nine years and enjoy each time I'm there. Not only is the work done in a professional manner but Kim and her staff make you feel like family and important from the time you walk in until the time you leave. You are greeted by your name when you walk in and thanked by your name when you leave. I've had the pleasure of traveling to different states and Kim and her staff are second to none. read more

I've been coming to this place for years to have my eyebrows waxed. After trying her for the first time, I never went anywhere else. She's gentle and very polite. It may not be the best looking salon in the area, but my eyebrows look perfect everytime! read more

Hey hey hey! This place is phenomenal! Priced very well, ladies are very nice. Amy has the best hands ever!!! She massaged my legs and arms for at least 30 minutes. Please try them. So awesome. Get the sugar scrub!!!! read more

Best mani pedi in town. You get a 10 minute massage and a really professional job on your toes and hands. Very well priced ($27), Nail Today has a great selection of colors and the atmosphere is really friendly. All-in-all a really relaxing experience. Can't recommend this nail spa enough. read more

Nails Today on Piedmont Avenue is run by Helen, Tina & Amy previously from Galaxy Nails. You must experience their amazing mani & pedi's! My favorite part is the dreamy leg & foot massage. Pair this with their sweet personalities and you won't go elsewhere! read more

Received the best gel manicure from Leslie today. She did a nice manicure and the cleanest and prettiest French tips I've ever had from a salon. She took her time ~45 minutes, ending with a short shoulder/neck and arm/hand massage (though I wish it was a tad longer). I will definitely be returning to see Leslie again, although she says all the ladies do the same great job, and to get a pedicure, too. They were pretty busy for 10-11 am in the morning on a Friday so an appointment might be helpful to avoid waiting. FYI: they take credit cards but have a $1 surcharge and you can add the tip on the tab. read more

On Saturday, 6/30/14, my sister friend and I had a spa day. Originally from Oakland, now living in Sacramento, I am unable to find a nail shop that has skill in silk wrap nails. So I made some calls and was referred to Nail Today. I very happy with the professionalism, quality and skill of the woman, Susan, which gave me a silk wrap and polished my toe nails. My sister friend got the full pedicure. She was extremly happy with her total experience. The ambience was very nice. As soon as you walk in the door you feel very relaxed and comfortable in your surroundings. The shop was very clean and the price was fair. I will continue to come here exclusively and to refer others. I really enjoyed my experience! read more

I just discovered this nail shop and am so happy to have found a great place. Susan takes such meticulous care with my gel manicures that they literally last twice as long as from other shops. All of the staff are super friendly and dedicated to giving you a great experience. Even shoulder rubs while you are in process! read more

Brought my 16 year old daughter in for a set of acrylics and was pleasantly surprised at how friendly and genuinely kind the ladies were ! Susan is great! she is fun and friendly and takes the time to ask exactly what you want, nail length, shape etc. and delivers! My daughter came in with poorly done acrylics from another salon..Susan and ladies were able to not only re do her nails properly and beautifully, but recognized that there was quite a bit of moisture under one acrylic and explained that this is a perfect breeding ground for nail fungus...she removed the nail(no charge) cleaned up the damage and the result was gorgeous and exactly what my daughter wanted in the first place! Thanks Susan! This is our new go to nail salon! Thanks to all the ladies at A Nail Today! read more

I had a gift certificate to this salon, so thought I would try it. It was the worst experience I have ever had . I asked for a Mani/Pedi, the staff was not happy that about the gift certificate... Changed manicurist 3 times, took someone who came in after me and finished her before me.. They let me sit for 15 minutes without explanation ... Hard to believe they are in business read more

I'm honestly surprised by the number of stars Nail Today has. I came here to have them remove my gel manicure. They did not seem pleased about this and asked me twice if I wanted to get another gel manicure, presumably so that they could make more money. When I said no both times, the woman doing my nails seemed almost angry. Several times she was rough with my hands, and aggressively rubbed a very rough nail filer on the skin around my fingers, which actually really hurt. I finally had to bring this to her attention, asking her to stop doing that. By the end, there was still quite a bit of gel left on my fingernails. She took the remaining gel off while we were both standing in the middle of the store, as she was walking towards her next customer. She still charged me $10 for this "service" and had the audacity to ask for tip. I won't be coming back and would really suggest you don't either. I also question their level of sanitation. I saw this same woman "wash" the pedicure tub with little more than a pinch of soap and a little water. I was really disgusted. read more

Can't say anything else but wonderful experience. I am a little late in posting as I went about a week ago. Anyways, needed a place last minute that could accommodate 4 mani/pedi's at the same time for a girls outing. Had been searching for a week prior and no places had agreed to service us at the same time. Upon calling, they were so friendly and polite and said if I could come in 30 minutes later then the time i wanted they could accommodate us. Simple enough. Upon arrival they were attentive. The place was clean and they were ready for us within 5 minutes. They made sure we were all toghether upstairs which was super nice. As we chatted and laughed, they remained attentive, detailed and gentle. Couldn't beat the extra arm, shoulder massages we got with the mani's either! My nails still look great, I also got my eyebrows done which look great too. Everything for $37! Couldn't beat it, great service, clean environment, good work, customer friendly and great price..definently recommend and I'll b back!!! read more
