    Left over nail polish and painful & tender nails, especially ring finger and pinky!
    Jen L.

    I made a HUGE mistake coming here. I wanted to like this place since it's close to my work. Its dingy interior with karaoke style instrumental music playing should have been my clue to leave. All I needed was to have my gel nail polish removed. I walked to the door and it was locked, but a lady came quickly to the door to open it. She was friendly and asked what I needed. I replied, "I just need my gel polish removed and a manicure with no nail polish." Sounds easy right?! Apparently it was not. I sat down and another lady came up to me to inspect my hands. They were speaking Vietnamese and all I heard was "gel polish." The lady working on me then grabbed her drill and began to aggressively file the gel polish off! So much that it WAS HURTING!!!! She even grazed the skin of my finger with the drill!!! Worst part...she didn't even get all of the nail polish off and now my nails are SO TENDER from her drilling!!! Not once did she try to use acetone. She went strictly drill. Honestly, I have never ever gotten a manicure to the point of leaving in PAIN! BTW, this was $25!!!

    Always satisfied with my acrylic sets and pedicures :)!

    A very gentle and pleasant shop. Lee helped a difficult person today . He usually only likes to do his own nails but I offered him a break . She was able to to give him a wonderful mani pedi and he's a happy camper

    Gel manicure. Perfect Barbie pink!

    I just had the most wonderful experience at CT Nails & Spa! Asked for a gel manicure and pedicure! Best manicure/pedicure I've ever had. Love the service -- they do nails and toes at the same time and cater to any time requests you have. Their classic pedicure felt like a pedicure I would normally pay extra for. Loved it.

    Had my manicure and pedicure done today! There were issues in communication at first but she did a great job! The prices are reasonable too. I'm definitely coming back.

    Fabulous job on my tootsies!

    Dropped in w/o an appointment on a Monday when a lot of nail salons in Fremont are closed. My first visit was great, they welcomed me in... I picked the color, so I can't blame them for my summer color in this winter weather... haha! The massage chair was kinda broken, kinda worked... The foot massage more than made up for it, my tech I believe she said her name was Nina, I don't hear well so I hope that was it. She did a great job and I will be going back! The salon was clean, the tools came out of an autoclave bag and were sterilized, the bowl had a liner so points for that also!

    The massage chair doesn't work. I went through pics after I arrived and started getting worried but with some guiding my acrylics came out nice. They accidentally grabbed wrong color but it was still cute, a bit sloppy but not terrible. The reason for 3 instead of 4 stars was the pedicure was so crappy lol. It's like a 6 minute process and they don't even touch or massage your legs. It was below basic. Otherwise ok place.

    That's what happened to my eye lid  they fuck it up .. can't even sleep because  it burn .. never again to go here
    reynalyn m.

    Nail are Okk but the the waxing the eye brow it suck ...................................when I told them my skin burn from the waxing they just told me to put ice

    Seriously. And I have recommended her to many people. Have a good one Nina. It's okay to sometimes admit you're wrong and you overbook.

    This is my story . I have been going to Nina for years and she thinks because I am semi-retired that my time can just be moved around like it's nobody's business . I ran in yesterday October 2nd at 5:10 p.m. she closes at 6:00 . I wanted a quick nail fill and she says it would be a half an hour . She said get pedicure so I did . I am disabled so I can't reach my hands over my body I need to have each hand done by itself and she started to do it after I told her several times , being a regular I thought she would remember that . People call and she takes appointments for that night and she needs to close up and she leaves me hanging . I know Nina so she looked really tired I thought I have nothing to do tomorrow morning I'll come back and help her out . Then when I come in to get my water bottle she's working on the woman's nails that she just spent 45 minutes with , why couldn't she come back to me her regular ? I come in this morning and I said you really need to learn not how to pick up your phone and deal with the customers that's in there . She can never admit she's wrong ever , it's just not in her culture or personality . I told her let's do my nails for the last time I'm moving which wasn't true but I was there . This is how she left my nails . I will never go back to her again . She does good nails but she doesn't respect your time .

    Right hand

    Q Nails is top tier quality for very reasonable prices and the best nail shop in Fremont!…read more I can safely say this because I have had $80-$100 Russian manicures, $50-$60 gel manicures, but no where does it quite like Q Nails. I am rough with my nails and constantly cleaning, using chemicals, etc, but somehow, their method and products last. I can go 5-6 weeks between gel manicures with absolutely no chipping or peeling. Tammy and Tina are the main reason for my review. They are both so friendly and provide excellent customer service as well as services. I leave here satisfied EVERY. TIME. They never rush my indecisive self when I'm picking colors and always offer to swatch the 2-3 that I'm deciding between so I can see it on my nails. Q Nails is very clean and I love how intimate this nail shop is compared to those that have a dozen chairs and tables. They have a special table with fans for your hands and feet to dry your polish quicker. Here, it is very clear that they focus on quality, rather than quantity. To avoid waiting, make an appointment. You will not be disappointed if you decide to come to Q Nails.

    QNails has been my go-to spot for nails for the past three years. I love how easy it is to get a…read moresame-day appointment, which makes everything so convenient. My mom and daughter come here too, so it's become our little family tradition. They offer a great variety of pedicure options, but my favorites are the lavender paraffin treatment and the one with the extra-long massage--so relaxing. On top of that, the prices are very reasonable for the quality of service they provide.

    I've been coming here for awhile and I LOVE and appreciate how clean and luxurious this salon feels…read morewhen you walk in. My absolute favorite for manicures/gel x/ acrylic is Rose. She is very detailed orientated, gives my GREAT color suggestions, and is very easy to talk to. She did my nails for my wedding and I got countless compliments. She always takes care of me! If you want the best Pedicure ask for Hannah, my cuticles look amazing, shape of my nails is perfect, and her massage is always the BEST. Thank you Rose and Hannah for spoiling me today! You are appreciated!

    TLDR: The final straw was when they had me waiting in a chair for 30 mins without an explanation so…read moreI walked out. Customer service and nail services consistently lacks because they're too busy/rushed. Find another salon! There are plenty of other cute ones with the same snacks and drinks and they provide better service. I've found another and it's so much more relaxing than this place. This place has really gone downhill. I've been coming for about a year but my last few services just got worse and worse to where I refuse to come back. 3rd to last appt - I came at a busy time and felt like my nails were really rushed so I decided to try coming on a different day. 2nd to last appt - I got a gel pedicure and there were bubbles and the customer service felt rushed. I started to realize this is becoming the norm here. Last appointment - I had a scheduled appointment and I waited for 30+ minutes until I decided this wasn't relaxing or worth it any more so I left. After 25 mins of waiting, the front desk lady gave me a bowl to start soaking my hands and she said "they're coming soon." They never communicated an apology or explanation that this would be a delayed appointment. Normal courtesy from salons is to give a heads up if it's 10-15 mins late. I waited 30 minutes and just decided to leave. As I was walking out the front desk person asked if I wanted to reschedule, I said no thanks and she just sighed as I was walking out. Never got an apology til the end..
