    Great service, nice conversation. Nice atmosphere. My nails were done exactly how I like them.

    I got my feet done first which I like. Then I requested to get my hands done with fake nails. Jade did my nails and I don't like them. They look like they're lifting up from my real nails.

    you don't want to skip creative nails. as someone who lives in el dorado hills, i was disappointed by the quality and service given to me up here by other nail techs. i commute to carmichael every 3-5 weeks JUST so Jade does my nails. she is beyond kind & accommodating, i am ALWAYS satisfied with my nails after my appointments. the energy when you walk in is always welcoming, they even offer snacks & drinks during your visit. Jade is dedicated to good service & it shows through the work she puts in consistently to every aspect of nail art. make sure to book with Jade!

    aesthetic vibes, cute environment

    Creative nails is under new management and they are super sweet and attentive, they offer you drinks or snacks as they provide your service. It was a really relaxing experience, and it was nice to just nice to get my mani done in such little time. I got a gel manicure with a classic french, and have did it so fast with ease and I LOVE THEM ! The vibe in there is super cute!

    II went in for polish change on toes and gel on natural nails. She charged me for full pedicure and mani with gel polish.

    Engagement day!

    I've been a customer of Lucy's for over 18 years and she is a perfectionist when it comes to her craft as a Nail Tech. She is always friendly and professional and treats her customers with the utmost respect. I've had my nails done, pedicures and facial waxing. I would highly recommend her services.

    This is awesome decor and its so true. I soaked relaxed and enjoyed myself!

    I was driving around looking for a nice bright nail shop. Some of the places I drove by and walked into didn't have good lighting. The shop was clean and tidy. The nail polish rack was very organized although I cam in for just a classic pedicure I felt like I received the top luxurious pedicure because of . She is great! Took her time, patient, and my massage ooooooohhh weeeeee!!! Nancy is her name! These ladies were so accommodating asking if I wanted water and am I doing ok. I appreciate them trying to understand I will like to soak and not feel rushed. The place was empty but sometimes shops rush your experience. I will be back here and telling all my colleagues about this place.

    Full set

    The lady that did my nails was nice but she was in a rush and I was the only customer in there the whole time. Quality of work was poor. I don't recommend this place. Shape and the French tip is awful. Going to have to get them re-done to fix the shape fix French tip color.

You're greeted with a warm, friendly smile, and my favorite part is being asked, "What drink would you like, miss?" A complimentary glass of bubbles never hurts. The dedicated service, clean and hygienic atmosphere, and the level of care and precision are truly impressive. It's competitively priced compared to other local shops -- you might pay about $10 more, but you can't really put a price on comfort and luxury. I love it here. Keep up the great work.

    This was my second visit to Blush, and unfortunately, the experience was very different from my…read morefirst. I scheduled a visit a few days in advance for three people and four services and paid an $80 deposit ($20 per service) via Venmo. One person canceled that morning, but I was able to switch to a different service for myself that same day vs. losing my deposit. The two pedicures were fine. They were basic pedicures, and aside from the water initially being extremely hot, I was happy with the results. Because of the deposit, there was also no wait time. The head spa, however, was a completely different experience. This was my first head spa, so I was excited and expected it to be relaxing. Unfortunately, it was anything but. The massage was brief, and despite the menu stating that oils would be used, none were applied. During the double cleanse, the technician used her fingernails rather than her fingertips, which became painful. There was also an excessive amount of cleanser, and rinsing it out was difficult. The water temperature was extremely inconsistent--going from hot to ice cold--and water got into my ear. Instead of feeling relaxed, I was uncomfortable throughout the service. Afterward, my hair was not completely dry. When I asked for serum, I was told it had already been applied, and I had to explain that I wanted my hair fully dried and soft. Another staff member eventually finished drying it, and the end result was much better. The two services totaled $138, or $158 with a 15% tip. I shared all of this feedback with the front desk before leaving. They were receptive and said they would provide additional training. I was also told that the technician was new to the salon and has some communication issues. I appreciate that they listened to my concerns, but based on my head-spa experience, I would not return for that service. *********************************************************** FINAL THOUGHTS Making a reservation requires a deposit, but it does give you priority if there's a wait. PRO TIP: I visited on a Saturday around noon, and it wasn't busy at all. If you're coming in solo, you can probably skip the reservation and deposit. I've had two pedicures here, and the service was totally fine. No issues at all. I also clearly saw the technicians using Barbicide to disinfect their metal tools, although I didn't pay attention to where they pulled the drill bits from. Overall, the salon is CLEAN, which I really appreciate. Personally, I wouldn't get a head spa treatment here again. I was told they're having plumbing issues because the building is old and that their plumber hasn't been able to resolve the problem. However, based on my experience, I feel some of the issues were related to the technician and not just the plumbing. That said, I'd love to hear from others who have had a head spa here. How was your experience with the water temperature? Did you have a better experience with a different technician? I'd genuinely be curious to know!

I reached out through Yelp (in desperate panic mode), and they replied fast, explained what I needed, and were super helpful before I even walked in. The place is bright, clean, and has the kind of chill energy that makes you feel like you've been going there for years. Grace took care of my nail and was so gentle.. I was in pain, but she handled it like a pro. She even recommended a nail builder to keep my nails strong, which I didn't know I needed but now swear by. Duyen was sweet and made sure my daughter and I had drinks like we were at a spa. Sophia was working nearby and still had such a kind energy. And Phil? Phil is the unofficial house comedian. If you like your nails with a side of stand-up, he's your guy. AND... Grace and Phil randomly started singing. Like, actual vocals. I came in for a nail repair and somehow ended up at a mini concert/comedy show. 10/10 would attend again. So yeah.. if you're looking for quality work, fun vibes, and a place that doesn't feel stiff or awkward, this is it. Come for the nails, stay for the entertainment. I'll be back again. At the end of the service I was given a cuticle oil!

I just came back today and got a fill - specifically requested for no polish because I have my family member doing it for my wedding reception this weekend. Somehow the fill was still $50 when I used to get full sets with designs starting at $50. When I asked for clarification I just got told "yeah that's right." I also got a pedicure but I wasn't asked what type, just assumed it was the basic one. Yes it was very nice she did great, I also got french tips. But found out that was $62 and again when asking just got told "yeah that's right." Just a bit frustrating when it doesn't seem like the service was extra or "luxury" per se. Yes I understand it's been awhile as well and inflation is a very real thing. I was excited to come back and Andy was sweet and did a great job. I just can't understand the pricing when at other places it's $40 for a pedicure and $35/40 for fills for the same services. There's no pricing online so maybe that's my fault for not asking ahead of time. Definitely feels like a bit of a rip off and I don't think I'll be back anymore unfortunately.

    I'm from LA and was visiting my sister in Sacramento when I realized I desperately needed to get my…read morenails done. I was honestly really hesitant about trying someone new because I'm extremely particular about my nail shape and have been going to the same nail tech in LA for years. My sister recommended Tracy, and I couldn't be happier that I trusted her. Tracy absolutely nailed it! The shape, length, and design were PERFECT. She paid so much attention to detail and gave me exactly what I wanted. If you're looking for someone who is talented, meticulous, and truly cares about her work, I HIGHLY recommend Tracy. I'll definitely be back every time I'm in Sacramento!

I have been a loyal client for over a year, consistently spending over $100 per visit, and I have always come in respectfully, communicated clearly, and expected the level of service that matches the price I pay. Today, a nail tech abruptly took over my service and immediately told me I "should go somewhere else" because I'm "never satisfied." I have never raised my voice, insulted anyone, or behaved disrespectfully. I simply expect quality for the price I pay. She went as far as saying the staff "gets scared" when I come in, which is not only unprofessional but completely false. Throughout the past year, I've also noticed that the staff frequently speaks in their language while looking directly at me or other clients, creating an uncomfortable environment where customers feel talked about instead of respected. This has happened every single time I've visited. To make matters worse, shortly before my service was finished, I overheard another woman complaining about her nail tech as well, proving I'm not the only customer experiencing issues. When I requested a small discount due to the disrespect I received, the salon refused. No apology, no accountability, and no professionalism. After a year of loyalty and hundreds of dollars spent, this is how I was treated. I will not be returning, and I hope management seriously reevaluates how staff communicates with customers and handles feedback.
