I really don't recommend this place in my opinion, my mom and sister came to this place and my moms nail polish melted so they had to redo it. They had me wait for 30-35 minutes for them to start on my pedi they had me sitting my feet on super cold water. read more

This place SUCKS do not go here. I came here today and I had to constantly tell her what I wanted and I am not satisfied what soever she walked away from me and left my nails unfinished and kept ignoring my requests and acting like she couldn't hear me and then talking In her language to coworkers when I asked her for the 6th time she replied with "no" and didn't do it. Then she left me sitting there and I decided and get up myself and put on my shoes she automatically assumed I was going to leave without paying and speed walked to the door. Not worth my money or time never coming back here you shouldn't either. If I could give negative stars I would . read more

I've come here a few times with my mom and sister. I always get their basic pedicure, it doesn't include all the bells and whistles, but for 10 bucks it's definitely worth it. They also add a cute flower design for an extra $5 if you're feeling snazzy. read more

Do not get your eye brows done. I had a rash for months it was awful. Lost a stars because it needs to be cleaner and one because you can't add tip to your credit card. Do not get your eye brows done. I had a rash for months it was awful. The only good thing about my visit was that Tommy was awesome. The best pedicure I have ever had. And great price! read more

I always come here when I'm in town. The deluxe pedis are great and super relaxing. Kim and holly are awesome.

Ehhh... That's pretty much it... Too much competition to even bother coming back ... I spent way too much money for a mediocre job

I would not recommend this place I took my daughter to get a set of acrylic nails they didn't do a good job after two days the nails cracked and when I went back to have them fixed they told me that I had made an appointment earlier and told me that I had to wait more hours or come back another day. If there's one thing that really bothers me of places like this is when they start talking about you in front of your face negative things in their language.They have horrible customer service this is a place I will never go back to again ... read more

This place takes FOREVER. The service is terrible, and some of the workers there are extremely rude. To top it off my nails always look poorly done and it's really not worth the money... Every time I have came here (total of 3) it's been a bad experience. I don't know why I keep thinking maybe next time they'll be better. Nope! Never again. read more

I have been going to Beauty Nails for a long time. I like them. That being said, TODAY I had an awful experience, and it was NOT because of the employees. Let me start by saying that one of the reasons that I go for a pedicure, and whatever goes along with it, is to be able to sit and enjoy the feeling and RELAX. I had just sat down and was getting worked on, when the OWNER of the salon (and the other one that is over by Panda Express) walked in. She proceeded to talk in a loud angry voice (not English) and it was clear that she was berating her employees. She went on and on and on. She marched around waving her hands and the only English that came out of her mouth was "I don't care." Needless to say, I was no longer relaxed. I looked down at the woman who was doing my pedicure. She was quiet, and her eyes started blinking and two tears rolled down her cheeks. I felt terrible for her and the others. While I know that the owner had the right to berate her employees, I strongly feel she should NOT do it in front of whatever customers are also in there. We were all kind of glancing at each other while this was going on. The owner did not ONCE look at any of the customers while she continued to stand and watch the employees and occasionally jabber away at them. It was as if we, as customers, were not there. Just was NOT a pleasant experience this time around. read more

This place is a joke! My sister and I came here to Capitola for a girls weekend to celebrate her birthday . So we decided to treat ourselves. They did such a horrible job on our nails. They were all different shapes. I complained by about one that he filed the whole side away and he just kept arguing with me, so I told him to just finish up. He mumbled he has been doing this for 29 years, my response.. I've been doing it for over 40! Ive been in the business for over 40 years. I beat. I don't like to throw that around when I go to salons but this guy was unbelievable! He had nothing to say after that. He got to the part where he should have smoothed the top but instead asked me what color I wanted. I said that's it, I'm done! This place is all about the money. They do not care about customer service or if their work is good. I took the file he used on me and tried to fix them as best I could. Went to Tiffany's nail just to get them polished and she said she had another girl that came in the day before for the same reason. I wish we would have read the reviews before we went in, but we were on a walk and saw the place and said let's do it. Never again! Always check reviews. read more

Holly always does a fantastic job whenever I go in there. She always makes sure my nails are done perfectly and I truly appreciate it! I always go in the morning and never had any problems getting immediate service. I'm a little fanatic when it comes to my nails. I like for them to always look good and using Shellac colors assures me it will look great until the next time I go in! With so many colors to choose, you can't go wrong. Holly also does a great job on nail art! Bring cash for a tip! read more

I have to say, I've given this place an honest effort. this last time I went to get waxed, the lady burned my face and sent me out without cleaning the residue off with cooling gel, she got wax in my hair.... looking for a new place! read more

I made 2 pedicure appointments for Saturday at noon. The main woman never wrote it down which made me skeptical from the beginning. We show up 2 minutes early and every seat is full and there are only 2 employees working while everyone waits. She says the wait will be 20 minutes- we waited 5 and ended up leaving anyways from lack of effort to help us. Don't waste your time. read more

they have redeemed themselves! I was pretty cranky about my first experience there, but yesterday, they did a great job on a leg wax and pedicure. I ended up regretting that I flamed them in my first review, so I wanted to say they are not THAT bad... it's a bit on the tacky side, but it's affordable and efficient. read more

UGH!!! This place is filthy. Dirty water on the floor. When I got here I was told to sit in a pedicure chair and wait. I was angry that I was waiting so long until I saw one of the guys who worked there pick his nose and flick his booger on the floor. I get up and left. No way anyone in this place will ever touch me with a sharp object. DISGUSTING!!!!! read more

This place does not take pride in their work- they push you through as fast as they can and aren't even nice about it! I've tried a few time, too! I thought maybe with their makeover, they might be under new management or something, but today I got a pedicure with a flower and a Rhine stone. The flower looks horrible and as I was about to walk out I realized she dropped some of the superglue under my toe and my toe was glued to my shoe!!! for God's sake people! So unprofessional!! read more

I know this isn't the fanciest place to go and sometimes you do have to wait for service. Other than that, I have had very positive experiences here. I think that they work hard to make sure that everything is very clean, and I appreciate that when getting a pedicure. Also, I enjoy their deluxe pedicure. They do more than any other place I have gone to for a very reasonable price. If you want a good, clean place for a pedicure and you have time to wait then this is a great place to go! read more

I don't know about the negative reviews, hard for me to believe after how we were treated. Me and my sister were recommended this place while shopping. They were efficient, accommodating, clean and it was worth every penny. I felt very pampered especially for price. I got pedi with a srub, lotion, hot towels, stone massage and they even massage head and shoulders. It was bomb and I will always come back here when I visit S.C. read more

Horrible experience i had here never will i go back to this place.. the only way i will go back is with a court order suing them. Last time i was there i had to go back to fix my nails sence the lady who did them at first mess them up really bad and when i went back the guy cut my nail in half and its turning green like if it was infected.. horrible way of working.. read more

I went here to get my nails done for graduation, and I went here before but I didn't remember it much. Although my visit was cheap it was so incredibly bad. If I could give this place 0 stars I would. The people in there could not understand me and my sisters nails were messy and gross. My nails turned out ok but they are chipping away and I only got them 3 days ago, so now they are going to look bad for my graduation. 100% don't go here it's horrible read more

This place is crap, they have no prices and after I asked five times they just said a number, they sat my mom down and completely ignored me. The man was very rude and and just shrugged me off. Never coming here again. read more

I'm a new fan of Beauty Nails.I wouldn't say die hard but I've grown to like them for just my nails recently. I've tried mostly every nail salon from Magic, Tiffany's, Tracy's etc... I've gotten acrylic nails done the past 2 times there and both times they've come out amazing! First I saw Tony and he's great for artistry and design, and then yesterday I went to Nick for a fill and he was great as well. Both friendly as well as the rest of the staff, they weren't too busy for a Saturday afternoon either, I was impressed with that. They quickly acknowledged me, assigned me a seat and I waited maybe a few minutes and was out in I'd say 40 minutes for a fill, paint job and drying. They're reasonably priced and great for my nails, but I still am totally committed to Tracy's for a Pedicure just because they're bowls are so clean and they're better with massage and just the over all pedi. All in all Beauty Nail's just did my nails right! I'm picky about shape and best of all they lasted about 3 weeks before I needed a fill when normally I go back about every week to get a fill because they're lifting so badly or I've lost a few. read more

Horrible . I came I for a refill for my gel nails I got done at the capitola mall (very busy). This place chipped one nail and filed until they literally started filing my skin. I paid $20 for a refill that not only came out thin a crappy but the gel started peeing literally 2 days later .. Will not come back. Consider your clients. read more

Beauty Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Capitola, California

Beauty Nails is like the fast food version of getting your nails done. The prices are amazing, BUT it's not worth your money. Service isn't great and they rush you through your nails or pedicure and its like I might as well have done it myself. I got my nails done one time there and the acrylic was lifting after the 3rd day. Needless to say I won't be returning because I'd rather spend a little more and get quality I appreciate. read more

I've been going to Beauty Nails for pedicures since they opened. For years I've been going to Holly. She did an excellent job and was very efficient. When she left I started going to Lynn who was alright however, she's not Holly. I went in today and Lynn is gone too so I decided to give this other woman a chance. It was an awful experience. She cut my nails so short it hurt and then could't do a design for me. I'm so over Beauty Nails. Time for a fresh start. read more

I will start on a positive note, the pedicure was good, my toes look absolutely beautiful. However I came in with 2 other girls and we were all doing Christmas nails. Holly was definitely a nice lady but she was rushing the entire time! There was only 3 of us there and With the first girl, she did her nails super chunky and didn't file them right ! She also didn't clean the bottoms so it looked absolutely unprofessional! Again only 3 girls in the salon, nobody ELSE! The next girls nails was the same situation, incredibly rushed, incredibly unprofessional and chunky! Then came my turn. I should have just left but I really wanted to get my nails done so I just went with it. First of all, the way my nails turned out were absolutely terrible, they were so chunky, they were not filed how I wanted them to be and they were all not even! Some were short and some were long! A mess I would say! The color arrangement was also the worst and I absolutely hated the job! I never write bad reviews unless it's necessary and this one is genuinely needed. I should have checked the reviews before coming because if I did I wouldn't have stepped foot in this place! If you want a great nail job, always go to Tracy's! They are absolutely amazing! read more

Honestly they do such a bad job I got gel and first of all she broke my nail and acted like she didn't do it and then the gel only lasted 4 days , not going back! read more

I have been going to this place for the past 2 years, and their service has declined significantly. I'm not exactly sure what happened, but around the time they updated the decor, many of the people who made it great left. I have heard that it's under new ownership as well. I just had my last visit on Saturday, and I doubt I will go back. I got a fill/pedi, and while the pedicure was good, the guy who did my fill was horrible. He would flick one hand out of the way when he wanted to do the other one, and didn't ask me if I wanted them shorter. I am now having significant difficulty typing due to the fact that my nails now resemble claws. I realize that I didn't ask him to make them shorter, but I was afraid he would slap me on the wrist and leave a welt after such an insignificant question. This is after my previous visit when they cut my nails AFTER they put the acrylic on them, and left a visible crack. I don't think it's worth it any more. There are many other affordable places in this world without the attitude. read more

I am surprised to see the bad reviews since i had a great experience. I made no appointment and walked in this morning to see 4 nail stylists and 3 customers, 2 were working on one lady. i sat waiting for about 6 minutes watching the news when i asked if i should come back in 20 minutes but right when i asked the 2 on the 1 lady had just finished and went straight away to work on me. For me i felt it was honorable that my nail stylist serviced me straight away rather than take a break. this was my first time here, but I had been to two other places on 41st, i went to the other two twice before, and I think i liked this place more. The french manicure was 2 dollars more than the other places i had gone to, the massage was mediocre and short but still nice. The french was done beautifully although i usually have a 2 tone french and this time i just went with tips. I feel like because of that i should have paid less money because it went by really fast and its a lot easier to do. They had a mini fan to dry my nails at my original seat so i didn't have to get up and move somewhere else like to a drying station, but it was slow so maybe thats why. it surprisingly only took less than 15 minutes to dry. The other 2 places i went to had uv light driers that were annoyingly loud, made me feel weird, not enjoyable on warm days, and i was still sitting for 25 minutes until i decided i should get up and leave. whereas at beauty nails my manicurist said i was good to go after just 13 minutes and someone actually checked for me. The service was great and my lady was very friendly. I had lucy, she had a great smile. I hope shes there if i go again. I would give 3.5 stars if i could. read more

What a horrific experience..... The nail technician aggressively slammed his hands and tools on his work space when he was doing my nails because he became easily frustrated with not being able to understand or communicate sufficiently enough to perform his job. I had never gotten the shellac polish before, but I could tell it was not being done correctly. It was clumping after 6 coats and was not drying or taking the true color it should've been either. I was clearly upset and let him know kindly that it looked a total mess. He immediately became escalated by Raising his voice in an aggressive hostile manner and demanded I pay for this without offering to fix his mishap or show any customer service whatsoever. Rather He tried to intimidate my mom and I by advancing and lunging towards us, as if he were going to hit either one of us. I said do I need to call the cops? And he respond yelling "I don't care"! I did not let him finish and another staff ended up correcting his work because I did not want to risk either one of us any harm. But in the end I left the shop SHOCKED! It was unbelievable how mistreated and attacked we were,that even the next customer after me witnessed this and was turned away. Do not go to this man for any service. He should be fired. He was totally inappropriate and this easily could've been worse had we not disengaged. Unfortunately, I will no longer be a customer of beauty nails because of this incidence. read more

Oh my, has this place changed. Years ago when a female owned this place, it was a gem because it was $10 pedicure and they were pretty decent and thorough. Now that there's a new male owner, the prices have increased and the quality has definitely decreased. I need a new place! read more

the guy was very rough and actually filed so hard he took skin off. also I had to ask him 3 times to round the edges so they wouldn't be sharp and they were still sharp when I left. I had to file them myself after because I didn't want to ask a 4th time. He also kept looking away while he was doing my nails and that's when he hurt me most. The end result was slanted nails and painful/stinging fingers. read more

I went to this place and it's sister operation down the road, a couple of years ago. They gave me a nail/foot fungus that has lasted me two years!!! I have taken multiple medications for it and have been unable to resolve it. Currently, I am very harsh medication daily, that has to be taken by mouth every day for three months, and has the potential to shut down my liver. I will need to get liver function blood work in a couple of weeks to be sure it's not damaging my liver. I know the price seems right, for a $10. manicure, but I AM PAYING FOR THAT right now (at the tune of $800. per month, for meds)!!! I strongly caution you not to go to this nail salon. They do not follow health and safety codes!! read more

decent price to get your nails did whether it's for a mani/pedi or fake nails. i went in last month for a full acrylic set ($20) with UV gel on top. ask for nick, he's apparently the one to get (and he's friendly too). the wait might be long because it can get packed inside. they offer coupons for a nice discount on your next visit. read more

I've been meaning to do this but I'm barely getting to it. It's been a few months that I've been to this salon. I took myself and my 2 daughters here a couple times. The first time was ok. I got who seemed to be the manager of the place to do my nails. She seemed real nice but every once in a while would speak her native language very loud and she didnt say much to me which I'm not used to. Other salons I've been to werent like that. Anyways I went back again...I mean atleast she was friendly sorta. So I got my toes and nails done. As well as my daughters. I'm not sure if it aggravated them that I asked how much for the pedicure but I did and they once again began going on back and forth with what I couldn't understand. After my pedi I went for my nails. The lady was very quiet to the point that it was rude. She couldn't stop talking to her co workers and I know she knows English cause she had just finished my daughters nails. All that's fine. Its expected but after she did my nails I was sitting there letting them dry and without warning she came from behind me and grabbed my shoulder neck area with both hands..long nails and all ..and started literally digging in. I was shocked and startled and it hurt. I thought ok maybe I'm just overexaggerating.. But she continued to use her nails with force as well I had to stop her and let her know that she was hurting me ..in a very polite way. I completely regret going back there. My young daughter later told me how she was watching from afar and it appeared as if the lady attacked me.. Anyways. Ill never go back to this place again. I will look for a better place for my daughters and I. I went to Tracy Nail recently and the ladies there did the massage on my back neck and arms and it didnt hurt like that. I'm upset I even paid when I left. read more

This was our first time in the salon . My daughter, my sister , and I went in for a mani. We all thought the gals who worked there weren't friendly and my daughter (age 19) nail polishes chipped within the hour. We won't go back . read more

I have been going to this place for a year and they went from the best to just okay. The last 2 times I have gone in my gel manicure chipped within a day. I also have noticed they don't cut my nails for a pedicure or a manicure. The shop is clean and the ladies are friendly. I am also annoyed that tips have to be cash. Hopefully they will go back to being the 5 star shop they used to be. Till then I will drive across town to another place read more

Nails were done ok, but I had called to make a waxing appointment as well but when I came in they said the anesthesiologist had left for the day??? It was the last day before my vacation so I didn't have time to go anywhere else and didn't get it done. Disappointing. Previous times I had waxings done there they were so brisk and pushy, not thorough, and even after asking for a touch up in a spot or two that weren't waxed well my requests were half ignored and I wound up plucking the stray left behind hairs myself... so whats the point in paying if I wind up doing the more detailed difficult work myself? Lame. Cheap nails though if you're desperate read more

I have been here a few times and although I wouldn't rank them my very best manicure spot they had also never done anything too bad, but boy oh boy did they make a bad impression today. First of all the woman that was doing my nails was so rushed ( I don't know why as there was hardly anyone in the salon) that she couldn't even bother to say "Hello, how are you?" When she removes my previous gel manicure she doesn't let them sit long enough with acetone, so instead of being able to scrape off the polish, she just straight files it off, leaving my nails completely rough and thin. From there she trims my cuticles and buffs my nails, but instead of wiping all the dust off she goes directly into painting. When I asked if she should wipe my nails clean before painting first she just looked at me like I was a complete idiot... so anyways what do I know I'm not a nail technician so I let her continue. By the time all is said and done, the cut of my nails is uneven, some are rounded, some are square, and the polish is uneven all along the cuticles because dust and crap had been in the way of the polish... Needless to say my nails look like crap, and I will not be coming back. read more

Good price, but make sure they're dry and done right cause even if you go back cause of something they did wrong. They'll double charge you.
