Found Sing completely randomly maybe 7yrs ago when she was renting a space in the back of a barber…read moreshop in La Mesa. I am ridiculously picky and was really frustrated by all of the 'pump and dump' nail salons out there. I may have just made up that term but most places do a super half-assed job in express mode. Well, I work with my hands and whatever I pay for a manicure...it needs to last. I was ecstatic to connect with Sing. Her level of detail was/is unparalleled. At the time I was only tending to my nails very sporadically. When I called to schedule an appointment I learned that she had opened her own place in Spring Valley. It's a farther drive for me but 100% worth it. Since finding Sing I will not go to any other studio regardless of price or convenience of location. In the last few years I have also become equally comfortable with Marie. These two ladies are 100% legit with their craft. Schedule an appointment.

Finally found a really amazing nail tech after so many failed attempts throughout SD. Marie has…read moreunmatched attention to detail. I am so happy I found this place!

I wasn't gonna choose a polish but Marie help confide me to choose one. She made an excellent choice

I was very happy to see prices clearly listed at the front along with tip management information. Justin did my gelx manicure and it looks great! I asked for natural color and length. He was very focused and had wonderful attention to detail. If something was uncomfortable, he immediately paused to wait before he'd continue. I like the SPF50 application before using the curing light. I've not seen that before at a nail salon. It shows extra care for customers. Hana did my pedicure and she was really pleasant. She talked more than Justin and asked me a few questions. Every pedicure gets a bath bomb and I had lemon halves too. I picked green tea. It smelled amazing. The massage chair is big but has no cushion. It felt like I was sitting on a fold up chair. Even though they look and feel old and worn down the massage was really nice. It's a very nice salon...very clean. If you look around trying to find stuff then you will. You can leave tip as venmo, zelle, cash app, or cash. I would go back. It's close to home and I had a good time! Oh complimentary drink and snacks too!

It dont expect to be perfect. But this was sloppy for what i paid for.

Hi everyone this will be a long post. PLEASE STAY AND READ…read moreThe older lady filed off my nails with the machine leaving holes on my right hand trying to do the job faster instead of being careful with my natural nails despite I told her to be careful keeping my length, when I noticed what she had done I pulled my hand away and ask her what she was doing, I was clearly upset. she then said that is normal grabbing my hand back and CLIPPING OFF the whole nail short. she didnt care!!!!! I pulled off again before she cut the rest of them and she left. the owner tried to step in to "make it right" suggesting to layer cover with acrylic. she did an awful job and left me chunks of acrylic under my nails on my right hand, and uneven with my left length she then proceeded to CHARGE ME for a service I never got (manicure) just for removing cuticle, no massage, no nothing, she spent the whole stay "fixing" the nail issue justifying she did the acrylic without charge when they did me wrong from the beginning. The other lady working on my pedicure was absolutely sweet, she listened to what I was looking for and did a perfect job as always, this place was my favorite place just for her only but unfortunately this time was different for the other women there. it's incredible how horrible the owner was to me. NEVER GOING BACK, and I recommend whoever is reading to watch over the work they do since they can hurt you, they WONT CARE, and it will also cost you for the crappy job.

I tried to really really like this place and gave them three chances but every single time it's been bad. The polish is outside of the nail, I could've done a better job myself. Charged me for a massage but barely ever rubbed my feet. $90 for a basic pedicure not okay at all. ***to the business owner that responded. I said I paid for the luxury pedicure and receive mediocre pedicure not worth the price. I didn't say you charge me more than you advertised. I meant your pedicures are not worth the price you charge. I hope this clarifies my original post and answers your question. And yes I do have the charge on my a point to prove it.

When I went to Pay, she said she had to fix my nails because they were too thick and it will be an extra five dollars. Honestly, there was nothing to fix. She just had to file them down a little more. Now they're so thin they're chipping and it hasn't even been a week. I should've been told ahead of time that that was going to be an extra charge. The pedicure was OK but massage was less than good. It was more like a rub. They only accept cash so I had to go next-door and get money and pay extra $3.50. last she (Kim) I think her name was, kept calling me by the wrong name, I would correct her and then she'd still call me something else. The place looked old and dirty. I definitely won't be back.
