Lily C.

So sad to be making this review but I think it's worth it to warn others. I came in on last Wednesday afternoon (it's now Sunday AM) for a gel pedi and mani. I've been here a small handful of times for regular pedicures and have had zero issues other than maybe a small nic when the tech was cutting away dead skin. Anyways, to cut a very long boring story short, my manicure lasted about 2 whole days before lifting on all nails. One of which completely lifted and I had to peel away. My pedicure was also probably the worst I've had, as I showed the tech a picture of a French tip with a very thin line; he asked numerous times if it looked okay and politely kept repeating myself as the line was extremely thick. I ultimately gave up because I repeated myself 6+ times to go thinner. I spent almost $100 on pretty straight forward services and left feeling very disappointed. I unfortunately will not be returning.

Every time I go Sandy does such a good job. Love every result I get! The black nails are a week old btw and still look shiny and fresh!

Nails done by Sandy! She is always happy to try new designs for my nails and always does a good job.

I love love love getting my nails done here! The ladies here are so kind and friendly always saying hi and giving compliments. And of course they're all (at least the ones who have done my nails) good at doing nails! I love how they can make acrylics so thin that they look like my real nails! And they're still strong and won't break! I really like coming here to get my nails done.

Took my daughter to get her nails done here and she loves her nails and the nail tech(Kelly) who did them was amazing.

Sandy is the best! She can do any design you want! She's so so good! Tiffany is also amazing at pedicures! Come visit them!

I am a guy and I had ingrown toenails in the past with surgery done to remove them. Ever since, I come here with my mom and sometimes by myself to get a pedicure done for the upkeep of my toenails. The service is always amazing and they know how to get it done! Tell them what you need. They know what they are doing and would recommend this place to anyone. Prices are decent and affordable. Massage chairs are great. It's a relaxing experience. Men, don't be embarrassed to get a pedicure done! Go with your wives, girlfriend, sisters, mom, etc. You won't regret it. It's healthy for your feet, improves blood flow and keeps it clean. Your health is vital and should be top priority!

This place never disappoints! Online booking makes it so easy to book with your favorite. But I will say ALL of them do an amazing job. So many options of colors, from dips to gels to acrylic powders. Love it! Very clean and well put together.

I asked for the French tip after previously having brown nails, you can clearly see she left plenty of the brown acrylic behind.

Alexa S.

I've been going here for a year now and things usually went fine.. but this was pure negligence. Not to mention they cracked a day later. I go back to get the crack in my nail fixed and try to mention the fact that she didn't even get off all of my brown acrylic from the last set to the manager working the front and he puts his hand up in my face and says "she'll help you" before I could even finish. (I was being very polite). He was very disrespectful and they didn't offer to fix the full set. It shouldn't have happened. She knew what she was doing and I would've said something at the moment but I was "trusting the process" until it was done. And it took WAY too long for me to ask her to redo it that day. Over all, if you need a simple style you can trust them most of the time. I wish I got her name so I could warn you not to go to her specifically.

Such a great nail salon they always make sure I come out happy with what I got, this place never disappoints

Come back here after 1 month . The service is so fast , they are so nice . You should have MiMi to do your nails and your pedicure. She is the best . I'm in love this new nail design. It's so cute . The vibe is pretty chill and cozy .

This is the nail that had a bubble under the polish.

ALL Cash only. They're really rough with your nails. I had a bubble under my nail polish that led one of nail to have the polish peel off. The place is dirty as well. The staff is nice but I won't be returning anymore.

I went to Crystal's yesterday. I usually get gel, but the nail tech noticed they were peeled so she suggested powder because it's stronger and lasts longer. I was interested, so I said yes. Unfortunately, I left and was really unhappy with my nails. I wasn't able to go back in that same day, so I called and Sandy (different nail tech) said she would fix my nails at no charge the next day. She did an amazing job fixing, reshaping and evening them out so they look uniform. She was really thankful that I called and came back in to have them fixed. And I was happy they were willing to fix at no charge. She did an amazing job. Ask for Sandy when you go to Crystal's :) read more

Overall, I am basing my review on ALL my visits to them. The service was excellent and has always been. I have gone for pedicures in the past, but this is my first full set of acrylics (EVER). I was nervous when I arrived because I am a guy and I was worried about what they and other clients would say or do. Luckily, that was a good experience. The salon is also totally brand new and they have a lot of protection around for clients. The cons: When she started doing my nails, I thought she was moving very quick but I didn't know any better. I do now. She rushed through all of it and was done in 45 minutes. I do LOVE the design she did, but she left a lot to be desired when it came to workmanship. I have 4 crooked nails, only 1 out of 10 is filed evenly, she flooded several of my cuticles with product, there are multiple jagged egdes, and there are several spots where there is no product at all. I now know what to look for when it comes to quality. I will go back for a fill when it is time and update my review. One thing that did also annoy me was that she kept getting up and grabbing items from other stations where there were clients, but i was not overly concerned because monomer probably kills everything and I made sure to wash my hands. read more

I'll start by saying they have done a lot for COVID protocols and my pedicure was absolutely lovely. My nail tech however was one of the worst I've ever had. She was very nice and polite but my nails are awful. Not only is every nail lumpy with excess acrylic on the bottom, but she cut almost every single nail when she was using the dremel to file my nails. I've never ever had a nail tech just continue to cut my cuticles like this. I can understand 1 maybe 2 slips... but she cut me over 10 times and just kept on going. She had to stop the bleeding more than once. She only apologized after I pointed it out when the alcohol stung my fingers. I was so shocked by this I just paid and left. I've never had a professional salon do this. I won't go back and I wouldn't recommend it. read more

i will say the thing i love the most is my nail color and they had basic customer service pretty standard stuff, other than that the issue i have is with the man who did my nails. not only did he cut me multiple times on many different fingers, he was overall really aggressive when cutting, filing, and shaping. i have multiple fingers with little gouges in them from him, and even after the first time he cut me i still proceeded with the service because he apologized to me for the mistake, but even after that he didn't change how aggressive he was being and proceeded to cut me three more times without any apology or acknowledgment that he's cut me more than once in the service. the best part was when i was finally done, and yes my fingers still hurt because of him. at least the lotion they put on me after smelled good, but overall i would not recommend having them cut your cuticles or anything because again it was very aggressive for me personally. the vibes were very tense and i was extremely happy when my service was finally over! read more

I got a removal of dip and wanted to switch to gel polish. The lady removing my nails did not know how to use the tools she was using because she kept burning me. Then I decided that I just wanted the removal because she was not shaping/filing correctly. They convinced me that she would make it nice so that I would pay for the service I assume, the manager had got involved. I should have stuck to my decision because the gel is bumpy and full of bubbles since she did not fully remove the dip and it is noticeable, I was headed out of town so did not want to fuss with it but I had it removed and re done 2 days later at a different salon with no issues. Would not recommend. read more

I just got my nails done (regular French manicure) nothing fancy and eyebrow wax and they charge me $50 I think this is too expensive and overpriced. I'm not coming back to this shop they take advantage and don't care about their customers So sad to know that we're going through the pandemic we try to keep them busy but take advantage of us. Shame on them. I'll make sure my family and friends know about this. I inquired and they told me it should not been $38 but I did pay that much when it should have been $23!!! So I guess the eyebrow wax was $12 and plus the tip I just can't believe how they are. I'm very upset and disappointed!!! read more

First picture is what I asked for. I asked for the exact shape & length. And this is what I got, flooded my cuticles, shape was sooo off & uneven, the length was absolute terrible, I was missing a lil chunk of acrylic. I told them that I wanted something cute for my birthday since my birthday is on Saturday, and this ain't it. I got home & tried to fix them but I couldn't even do that since the acrylic is so thick. I'm so tempted to go get my nails redone somewhere else, cause I wanted to feel cute on my birthday..

I'm so sad to be posting this because I absolutely wanted to love this salon. The atmosphere is great, convenient check in, and selection for colors. I absolutely love Kalani she is incredible. Here's what's wrong. Before Covid I had an apt with a friend. They only had one chair when we arrived so I let my friend go ahead. She got her entire pedicure and manicure done and I hadn't been seated yet. How does that happen with an appointment? The manager apologized and gave me a gift card to come back as I left without getting anything done. My next apt I still had to wait quite a while for my service even though I had another appointment. Yesterday I go in super excited after not having anything done for months. Within 5 minutes of my manicure the gal cuts my toe nail so short I yelp in pain and my toe is bleeding!!!! The toe nail is half the size as the others! I am still in so much pain! I don't understand how that's even possible to do! Then she's on my other foot buffing the top of my nail and goes right over the front part of my skin and rips it open. I now have two toes bleeding! I tell her she's cut me twice and it hurts. She apologizes and says she'll be more careful. The rest of my pedicure was ruined. My toes throbbed and stung with everything else put on them. They didn't offer compensations or anything. Oh that's the other thing. They've increased their prices and are only taking cash saying "their machine is down" but I see from other reviews this has been going on for a while. Just be honest if you're only accepting cash. My friend left a review on here as well about being cut and not accepting her card. They wanted her to leave her super expensive purse as collateral for her to go get cash. This was before they had an ATM in there I believe. I'm super torn. I love my nail tech but am super unhappy with the lady that did my toes and feel like this is a common issues there. read more

I have been coming here for about 3 years now and I can day I will NEVER go anywhere else. Everyone in the shop is amazing at what they do and they really listen to what you want done to your nails. That being said they are human and humans do make mistakes sometimes but in the 3 years I've gone here I've only had to go back to get my nails fixed maybe twice. All of the ladies know me by name and always ask to see pictures of my baby. (I started coming here when I was pregnant and now my daughter is 3) they are very personable and kind. I HIGHLY recommend everyone I know to come here and I recommend you do too! Don't let the negative comments steer away from what an amazing shop this is! read more

Lina had a great solution and did an amazing job matching it with an acrylic extension--you can't even tell in the photo. That said, if you're in a similar situation, I'd recommend asking for Gel-X instead of acrylic. The acrylic ended up feeling loose and didn't hold well, so I had to come back before leaving for a trip. To their credit, Sunny Nails squeezed me in the very next day. Another technician quickly assessed the issue, removed the acrylic, and replaced it with Gel-X (a full, strong nail--not just a tip). The result was flawless--she shaped it beautifully, and I was able to enjoy my trip with perfect nails. The only downside was the experience during the fix. The technician seemed frustrated, didn't respond to my thank you, and abruptly turned off the blue light and walked away without acknowledgment. It felt a bit uncomfortable--especially since I had already paid extra for the initial service and had to come back. Overall, they made it right, and I appreciate the quality of the final result--just wish the customer experience during the correction matched it.

They seem to have a faithful clientele, easily talking to all their customers by name and noting that they will see the again soon. It's not fancy at all so if you have lower expectations of a salon experience, this is perfect. I like to get fancy pedicures once in a while but can't afford it with the $60-90 price range and options. For something low key, just to get your nails done simply with no fuss or fanciness, this was perfect. They did an efficient and clean job, and my regular pedi was only $35 with $5 extra for a salt scrub. Since it's just the two of them, the place is tiny with only three pedicure/massage chairs and two manicure stations. They're happy to take walk-ins as I don't think they get too busy.. but there were two customers before us and two after, so we just happened to come at the perfect time for just the two of them to handle everyone with little wait. I'm sure it helps to call for an appointment though. Their polish selection is limited. Again, if you adjust your expectations, this is a great salon. For non-fancy people, my daughter and I were happy and will be back. My wallet is especially happy!

I'm very disappointed because the first time I came here it was ok but in my experience today I went to have a day with my daughter we were so excited to get our nails done and the minute I walked in there I felt rushed I felt like I couldn't decide on the color I wanted because they were out of almost every color!!! I wanted so I was trying to find the one I could like the best and during that time they were just being very rude speaking in their language like I was dumb because I couldn't decide I got a pedicure and a full set and the whole time I was being rushed during my pedicure at the same time they start doing my nails I couldn't relax it was just very uncomfortable the way they were talking in their language the whole time and the tech I believe was Kim burned me with the machine that used to file your nails down like 4 times!!very painful just so you know !which really hurt alot I just don't understand what's the issue of customer service!!?! I went to have a good experience with my daughter but I wanted to run out of the nail chair!! because of their attitudes and the way they made me feel( I even said it out loud why does everybody in here have such a rude attitude and they ignored me ?)and my daughter was very uncomfortable they continue to tell her to stop to get out of the way she was excited to show me her nails !!!! she 6 years old that they did and they just seem angry I had to continue to tell my daughter to sit down because they were so upset if she got close to me to express how happy she was!!! They were annoyed with me and my daughter and they had no reason to instead we got treated like not even a human it was just about money I paid $70 to go relax not to feel uncomfortable and out of place or in an out get out!!!at least if you're going to run a business that way you should greet the customers and be sincere and friendly that's what a business is about not to mapke the person feel like trash it was a horrible experience and I don't ever want to go there again with my daughter because I wouldn't want to make a scene because that's not how I was raised but if I was alone I probably would have made a huge deal because it was very unprofessional this was the 3rd time I have come here and probably the last because of the way they made me and my daughter feel smh.. read more

I have tried many of the different nail techs at Crystal nails. I can recommend Sandy and Tina ONLY. Do not go to John he is very rude. I had to go back two times because the nails kept popping off, I had been going to Crystal nails for over a year and had never had this problem. I honestly felt that I should not be charged for poor old products. which at the time was less then a week old. I went in there to go back to the tech that did my nails but she was not there. John said there would be no charge so I did leave him a good size tip. Two weeks later I was ready for a fill so I went back and again had John do my nails and was lectured about how I have to pay for my nails this time (which I was planning on doing) and he was just downright rude saying it was not his fault the first set popped off, he was looking to argue with me which really shocked me. I told him he was the one that said he would redo them, I did not ask him to do them. . I was so upset that I just paid for the nails no tip included and left. The following week I discussed the issue with managment but I am sure my comments do not mean anything to any of them. I had stopped having my pedicure there after noticing that they do not properly clean there foot bowls. I had developed a fungus after my last visit there and am currently under a doctors care for it. Do not bother to make an appointment as they are never considerate of your schedule. read more

Lee is beyond the best!! I had been getting my nails done by the same person for about 10 years and then she quit doing nails to sell real estate. I know this might sound dramatic...but I was devastated!! She was so good and I spent the next year bouncing from nail tech to nail tech trying to find someone I at least liked. After another terrible experience, I complained to my neighbor and she told me to try her girl. That's when I found Lee. She is young so she keeps up with the trends, super cute, so I love that I can count on suggestions from her, and she is AMAZING at what she does! Since I've been with her I have had short square nails, stiletto nails, and I am currently wearing coffin shaped nails! She can do anything!! And I've loved everything she's done. She even introduced me to chrome nails but made sure they were tamed down a bit for me. Do yourself a big favor and request Lee the next time you get your nails done. You will be so happy you did!!! Love you Lee!!! read more

I cannot say enough about this salon. Ive been coming for years and we are always greeted with a friendly hello. Today, after months of growing my eyesbrows out duento sheltering in place, i went in. My heart broke as the technician i was with kept apologizing to me about the inconveniences due to the restrictions and new peocedures in place. They shouldnt have to apologize for keeping us safe and themselves. This is a new way of life we are in right now and if that means more wait time, schedule appts, face masks and price changes then im all for it and appluad Crystals nails for their dedication to this community. Not only have they opened up when some have chosen not too, they provided us with hand made masks and support to Lakeside as a whole during the hardship of closing their doors. A huge thank you and shout out to the crew at Crystals Nails. You are appreciated and we see all the changes you have to endure simply to make your clients needs met and you are loved! read more

Unhygienic Experience at Crystal's Nail & spa I recently visited Crystal's Nail & spa for a nail service, and unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. The nail technician used dirty tools during my treatment, compromising hygiene standards. The overall cleanliness of the salon left much to be desired, and it was evident that proper sanitization protocols were not followed. This not only raised concerns for my own well-being but also for the health and safety of other customers. I strongly recommend that Crystal's Nail & spa takes immediate action to address these hygiene issues, as they are crucial for customer satisfaction and the reputation of the establishment. Potential clients deserve a clean and safe environment when seeking beauty services. I hope my feedback serves as a constructive critique, prompting positive changes at Crystal's Nail & spa. read more

This is a great place to get your nails and pedicure done all at the same time. I came here the first time for my nails and it was gorgeous. I don't know what kind of Gel coat they put on but it last forever and keep my nail fresh until I came back for a fill. @ Fill: I can change any color any shape that I want and they have at least 200 colors for you to choose from. @pedicure: amazing spa chair with roller massage, very clean and sanitized especially tools that can not sanitize they will give it back to you at the end of the service. I loved the pumice stone! The foot massage was so good. Other than that there's a service called Sparkle toe... it's incredible!!! Again I don't know what kind of Gel that they used but it make your toe nails shiny and twinkle. This last me at least 2 months. read more

I came in with my Mom, daughter, and niece. I figured without and appointment and 4 people, I wouldn't get in, but they have so much staff we barely waited. I had Natalie do my spa pedi and Lynn did a dip powder mani. They are both perfect and the ladies are kind. My mom uses Sandy and swears by her work and great personality. The girls had Tracey and she's always so patient and fun with them. Mix that with a very clean environment and I'll definitely come back over and over. One thing to note is that they should probably offer drinks. A water would be nice. But overall, excellent experience. read more

I would not recommend this place. The lady that did my nails was extremely aggressive and rushed the entire process. She made me bleed in several places and kept running the dremmel over my skin to the point that my skin is raw on multiple fingers. She was pulling and tugging on my hands and would throw my hand aside when she would move on to the next one. One of the tips broke off less then 30 minutes after leaving the salon and they were closed by then and I have a 4am plane to catch so I can't even get it fixed. For the price I paid I would expect better quality and customer service. read more
