    My nails from Angel are AMAZING! I'm in love with her work. You book an appointment via text. Angel is super sweet to communicate with and tells you her availability. Upon walking in, you know she puts a lot of thought into her workspace. It is extremely clean, organized, and very cute. This is how you know she will put a lot of care into your nails. I didn't have a design in mind (just flowers + gel extensions) and I wanted her to surprise me. I love how she has a show in the background playing. We shared many laughs during a lot of scenes. While I was engaged with the show playing, Angel was very attentive with my nails. Like what the other reviewers mentioned, she is gentle and her presence is relaxing. I love how my nails turned out and I already received so many compliments. Her designs are beautiful and she pays great attention to details. Angel is an outstanding artist and a perfectionist--she is someone I would recommend for self-love days or special occasions.

    I found Angel through one of my followers on IG. She's located at Sola Salon Studios in Santa Clara where there appears to be multiple stations of beauty care in one location. Angel is so sweet and was nice enough to see me on a Sunday, as that was all I had available. Her space is filled to the brim with different kinds of nail polish, cute figurines, all pink decor and had K-Drama on for background noise. Angel is very precise in how she services your nails and takes her time to make sure it looks good. This was my first gel x nail experience with a Korean / Japanese style to them and they came out so cute and dainty. I will definitely return to see her for future nail appointments and try out different styles and maybe even try the extensions! (pictured are my real nail)!

    Angel is a very meticulous and super sweet person! She took her time to prep my nails before doing them every time! I have pretty dry and brittle nails but everytime I get them done by her, it always grows out so healthy and long! Her nail salon is also super neat and clean and cutely decorated too! I would definitely recommend coming to Angel!!

    Gel extensions, Basic Gel color and design

    LOVE LOVE my nails! she took the time to clean out your nails, cut all the cuticles and was very detailed and gentle. options and colors are endless. But i have to say it took way longer than i expected so be prepared to clear out your schedule because it could take a few hours depend on your style (mine took about 3 hours) it was definitely a little more pricey so i recommend discuss pricing beforehand. Definitely worth the money for special occasions or when you feel like splurging. i never been to a salon that i 100% satisfied with the outcome. Definitely will be going back again soon :)

    This review is long overdue but much needed! Angel is very attentive, meticulous, and gentle! It was my first time getting my nails done with Korean art/style and I'm so glad I found Angel on Yelp. I chose a basic color for my first time to try it out and I just booked my second appointment with her for a new set + design! Also, they last a long time! I was in Hawaii for a trip and I was worried that they would chip with how much time I spent in the water but wow they lasted... 3 weeks later (second photo), they were still intact and good as new (even after trimming and buffing them at home). Thank you, Angel! Another plus: if you're into Korean drama, Angel puts on Korean drama while she works on your nails. She got me into Alchemy Souls!

    Cat eye + heart glass bead on natural nails

    I first came across Angel Lovely Nail on Instagram because I loved looking at Korean style gel nails. This was the first time I've seen a nail tech of this style in the Bay Area. Booked my first appointment with Angel through text and the whole process was easy and she was so patient with answering all my questions! I was stunned by how cute her little studio space was, everything is so clean, organized and pink Angel encouraged me to keep my natural nails and grow them out with the gel rather than doing extensions and I'm glad she did. After years of having acrylic nails, I really wanted a less damaging way of getting my nails done and I'm so glad I went with a gel manicure! Angel is thorough and meticulous from the filling, cutting of the cuticles, shaping the nails and painting on the gel. No air bubbles or roughness on any nail which used to bother me a lot with some acrylics. I got a purple cat eye effect on my natural nails + 2 glass heart beads on each ring finger. It took about 2.5 hours because of the rough conditions of my natural nails but it flew by since Angel put on a kdrama for me. Definitely super glad I came across Angel on ig and will be coming back monthly!

    The best nails I've ever had! I've never had such pretty nails and Angel does an amazing job at meticulously cleaning and shaping your nails to the perfect shape and size you want! She is super kind and helpful to understand what might work for you! The first time I got the gems/ stones on my nails I was worried it would fall quickly... but it never fell off! I am not a careful person but I didn't need to get my nails done again until a full month! There are so many variety of colors and she has all the trendy nail polish that you wouldn't see at a regular nail salon! I've been eyeing these "magnetic" nails on IG and I was super happy that she had them in her collection! The picture doesn't do justice so I highly recommend checking out her IG! Overall I have a wonderful experience every time I visit and I highly recommend trying her nails if you are in the market for unique/ trendy nails !

    No need to look anywhere else if you're looking for a talented nail artist who does quality work! I found Angel by chance while looking for gel nail artists in my area and fell in love with her work. She's an extremely sweet personality and is extremely detail-oriented. Never doubt a suggestion from her. I was considering a flat ombré but she suggested using glitter, and it turned out even more amazing than I had imagined! I've already booked a second appointment and can't wait to return!

    Korean crystal nail art
    Paige E.

    Angel is quite literally an Angel! I had an amazing experience in her super cute nail salon. I came to her because I wanted to get some crystal nail design and she did not disappoint. The attention to detail she had with cleaning up my nails before doing the art was top tier, they were so clean and beautiful! She was gentle too which is a huge plus, not a fan of rough nail artists. I would highly recommend seeing Angel! I will definitely be going again. I drive quite far to see her--that's how much I love her work :).

    Custom nail design
    Rina H.

    If you are searching for someone to turn your nails into a work of art, look no further because Angel will work her magic! I have been wanting to get my nails done for over 2 years and I found Angel through Yelp. She responded promptly to my appointment request and then we moved to text. I really appreciate people who reply fairly quickly. During my appointment, she asked questions about what shape I wanted my nails to be, what colors I wanted, and the design. I found an IG post of Japanese style nails that I liked so I asked her to paint something similar. She has such a wide array of colors and nail accessories!! She was super gentle and understanding of my sensitivity to the UV light. You can tell when your nail stylist truly cares about what they do when you see how detailed they are when working on the nails and understand their customer's needs. My nails came out way better than I could have expected them to! It's such a fun combination and the best way for me to celebrate my belated birthday. Overall I highly recommend you to book an appointment!! What are you waiting for??

    Ashley D.

    This is my second time going to Angel for my nails! She's super nice and really precise with her work but also very gentle. She can work off designs you show her. Her studio is decorated nicely and it's only her, so it's quite relaxing with a show playing in the background. The price is pretty high but I think it's worth it for the level of detail she puts in :)

    Clara A.

    5 stars all throughout the experience! Booking: I was able to book easily and fast through text, which I love because I like to have everything written down (vs phone call). Location: The salon was easy to find and super cute, neatly maintained. Tons of colors and parts to choose from--I'm from Korea and I can tell you she's got all the latest products from there! Design: I asked Angel for a proposal nail set and she came through!!! I am usually indecisive and have a low-key style so her idea of doing the light pink, glitters, and hearts on different fingers were perfect for my occasion and ended up going so well with my ring and bouquet Nail polish process: She was very thorough in prepping the nails as well as making sure finishing was flawless so that my sensitive nails could last. She took 2.5 hours so you know she is not playing. It's been almost 2 weeks and no cuticles and no chips anywhere Highly recommend!

    Nails with cat eye polish and extension
    Jade G.

    Literally the best manicure I've ever had!! She was so lovely and was so willing to work with my absolutely hectic schedule. I've never felt more taken care of when getting my nails done and she played a super funny and entertaining show while I was being worked on. Honestly I can't wait to go back again. I did have a nail extension pop off the day after I got them done but she immediately tried to fit me in to get it fixed and was incredibly kind about it. I can't recommend her studio enough!!!

Sometimes there is a barking dog in the salon, and most of the time the place feels dirty and not particularly well-maintained. My most recent visit will definitely be my last. I stopped in for a walk-in pedicure and asked the man at the front if they had time. He said yes and directed me to a chair. After I sat down and he started filling the foot bath, two customers with appointments walked in. Shortly after that, another walk-in came in, and he turned her away. It was obvious he was annoyed that he had accepted me before realizing his scheduled clients had arrived. He rushed through my pedicure from start to finish. I actually don't mind a shorter massage, so that wasn't my main concern. What bothered me was the quality of the service. He applied only one coat of polish--no base coat and no top coat--and then immediately moved on to the next customer. Once my nails were dry, they told me I was ready to leave and charged me full price for what felt like a rushed, incomplete pedicure. I paid full price, but definitely did not receive a full service. I won't be returning, and based on my experiences, I can't recommend Q Nails.

No refund, no solution, and deeply unprofessional behavior. *~~ Service Overview & Pricing I booked a same-day appointment that the owner accepted. I requested: * #108 Gelixir purple gel polish + acrylic fill manicure * #108 Gelixir purple regular polish + basic pedicure The owner upsold heavily throughout. I even let her do extra work on my pinkies to build rapport. Total: $81 Tip: $15 (tipped before the service was completed) She opened the shop ~5 min late despite accepting my 9:30 AM appointment, & complained aloud, setting the tone for our session. *~~ Where Everything Went Wrong 1. First Mistake Toe spacers were applied after polishing but before the paint was dry, immediately smudging the big toe. 2. Second Attempt They only partially removed the polish to "fix" it. Because the initial coats weren't fully removed, the application was thick and uneven. After 40 minutes of "drying," the nail dented and the texture caught the lip of my shoe, scratching again. I told them I still had time if they wanted to properly redo it. 3. Third Attempt A kind staff member accidentally damaged the other big toe while helping me into disposable sandals. At this point, my toes had been ruined three separate times--all due to staff actions. *~~ The Owner's Response When I asked if they could use gel on the big toes (since the mistakes were theirs), the owner refused and claimed: 1. The colors "wouldn't match." 2. Gel and regular polish can't match--despite the Gelixir palette offering both and my manicure proving otherwise. 3. That because I chose regular polish, the outcome was my fault. She repeated this many times. 4. That regular polish takes "hours to dry in cold weather," something she never mentioned and is simply not true. By then I had been there from 9:30 AM to 12:20 PM, and the pedicure was the first service we started. *~~ Escalation & Unprofessional Conduct When I calmly asked for a reasonable fix (or at least accountability for my time), the owner became rude, defensive, and dismissive. She offered: * No refund * No partial refund * No refund of my tip * No solution She repeatedly told me I could "leave if I didn't like it" while her staff was trying to help me with bare toes. Instead of accountability, she lectured me with constant "you" statements and kept shifting blame. I stayed polite and attempted to de-escalate, but she kept escalating. My friend who was with me also felt the owner was short, judgmental, and rude from the beginning. As a Filipina, I'm familiar with cultural bluntness--this wasn't bluntness. This was aggressiveness and unprofessionalism. *~~ Service Quality & Safety Concerns * They used a pumice scrubber on my inner ankle bone, leaving raw skin and micro-cuts. * The owner drilled harshly on the sides and cuticle area during my fill, causing irritation and cuts. When I said "ow," she told me I "needed lotion." (I regularly moisturize; the issue was her technique.) * During upselling for designs/gems, she asked about two fingers. When I agreed, she worked on the wrong fingers, insisted I said "all," and did the same thing to my friend. * Despite her picking my friend's shade, she acted annoyed when we asked to see it on one toe. Odd behavior throughout--there's truly no winning with her. *~~ Final Thoughts Based on quality alone, this could have been a 2-star experience. But the owner's behavior makes it a 0-star experience. Earlier, she told me her business struggles with retention but has some regulars. Now I understand why. The recurring reviews about poor customer service suddenly make complete sense. Even her responses to negative reviews show the same pattern--confrontational, defensive, and unwilling to take responsibility. It's impossible to relax when the owner is hostile, unaccountable, and provides no customer care. This was my first time going (only to accommodate my friend's work schedule) because in theory the 9:30 AM start time is competitive. But honestly, you're better off walking one minute over to Winchester Nails, which is actually my regular spot. I'll never cheat on them again.

My deluxe also comes with paraffin wax & massage. They even serve complimentary beverages like tea, coffee, water, and sparkling water.
