I came here for my wedding nails! Never been here before, and my regular nail tech at another salon cancelled on me day of, no notice. In a pinch I found this place and Nikki did Builder Gel French manicure and Christine did my gel French pedicure for my wedding and this was hands down the best nail experience I've had. Service, friendliness, and top notch quality! Will definitely be back! read more

I have been going to Nicky for my nails for several months now. She does an excellent job with my gel manicure with chrome, helping me pick out and customize colors (I usually go for something like an off-white or light pink) and adding the chrome on top makes my nails sparkle so beautifully. They last a *long* time, 3 week minimum (see pic for what they look like at 3 weeks), if they didn't grow out I would be able to make them last longer. The nail strengthener also really works to help keep my nails from ripping. Everyone at the salon is very sweet and I really like the ambiance. Thank you Danville Pinkies and Nicky! read more

Danville Pinkies Nail Studio - Gel manicure with chrome 3 weeks later - Nail Salons Near Me - Danville, California

Came here as a walk-in and waited about 20 minutes -- no big deal. Unfortunately, everything went downhill from there. I got a gel manicure, and it didn't even survive three days before chipping. Honestly, I'm not surprised. The nail tech seemed rushed from the moment I sat down. She used a high-speed bur to remove my previous gel, and the heat was so intense it stung. When I mentioned it, she brushed it off with, "You're too sensitive." There was barely any gel to remove -- a simple hand file would've done the job without damaging my nails. Instead, the overuse of the bur left my nails feeling thin. The curing process was rushed too. She kept switching my hands mid-cycle before the polish could properly set. And the "massage"? It lasted as long as it takes me to put lotion on before work -- basically nonexistent. For the price they charge, the service should last more than a couple of days and feel at least somewhat relaxing. Unfortunately, it was neither. I do NOT recommend this place. read more

Took my child for an easy peezy manicure. We were asked to wait for 20-30 which we were happy to do. They did a phenomenal job and my pre teen could not have been happier. Mama was happy that they didn't charge full blown adult price for a kids mani! It's clean. Welcoming. A+ read more

I went in to get my gel nail polish removed and didn't have time for another manicure. I scheduled an appointment online and saw that it would cost $10. When I got there, the person who greeted me was unfriendly and seemed bothered by the fact that I was just getting my nail polish removed. Jasmine actually did the removal and did a great and efficient job. When it came time to pay, Jasmine asked the staff member who had greeted me what the price was and she said $15?? Why have the price listed on the website as $10 if you're going to charge $15? read more

The people here are really nice, but the quality of the work isn't the best. I had a gel pedicure, and one of my toenails just came off by the time I took off my shoe... just a couple hours later!!!! It's actually quite comical cuz that has never happened to me before!!! I also had a gel x manicure, and it's alright. The underside is very thick and dirty feeling. Nails aren't really all the same length or shape.. It's a beautiful facility!! But the quality of the work is subpar. read more

I wanted to leave a review for Nicky (an AMAZING nail technician) at Pinkies Danville's Nail Studio. I have been going here for 3 years and can't imagine going anywhere else! They always make time for me, give an amazing service and make sure I'm in and out in a reasonable time. The salon is beautiful and their nail and pedicure services are top notch! I have real nails and wanted something to maintain the integrity of my nails while making them sturdy and still looking natural. They offer a "hard gel" nail option which is AMAZING! My nails are healthy and strong under the hard gel and the color and nails last for 4+ weeks! My pedicures last the same and their massage is incredible The girls are all super talented and sweet and I always leave thrilled by my results! I recommend HIGHLY if you're looking for long lasting and impeccable nail/pedi results. read more

If you are not a regular here the customer service sucks! This was my second time here. First time wasn't as busy. I walked in for a pedicure and after waiting I had to speak and ask if they had time for me. They said they did. I also needed one of my natural nails fixed and asked if they could do it. Every time I asked they acted as if they were not sure. I asked about 3x to 3 different people and each person got more annoying than the first and acted as if I was bothering them for asking for a service. I finally said just give me an answer so I can move on. Bc I'm like is there not a nail salon on every other corner! I can go somewhere else people. The old aunties had the worst attitude. It was the younger crew that did my pedicure and she was fine and tried to apologize but she also didn't help pull my pants leg down or help put my sandals on when I was done. So again customer service was lacking. However, all the regulars got all the smiles and conversation and time. Too bad bc she did a decent job on my pedi but was horrible experience! read more

Nicky is fabulous she did a great job on my nails. Highly recommend the Hard Gel as it is better for nails than acrylic and dip and it lasts much longer!! read more

Don't bother making an appointment, they won't honor it anyway. Arrived on time to my appointment but waited 25 minutes. Once seated, waited another 5 minutes. The nail technician spent 20 minutes on my pedicure; slapped on some polish and sent me on my way. Not worth the money and definitely not relaxing. read more

Large, open space. But the chemical smell is overwhelming-- I question whether they have adequate ventilation. It was a moderately hot day and the air conditioning wasn't great. I made an appointment two days in advance for 3 pm and had to wait until 3:14 to be served. read more

My daughter and I just got very bad pedicures at Pinkies. Our apts were at 3, they were over by 3:15. My daughter got a 30 second massage and mine was only about 2 minutes. If we didn't have apts I could understand, but we made them to insure that we get the time we book. It was a nail clip with polish applied pretty much. I'm not sure they even filed my nails. I will never go back to this place. read more

Nicky is amazing! I am so happy I found her. She does hard gel nails (poly gel) and it lasts 4-6 weeks. I wash dishes and do gardening - I can be quite rough when it comes to my hands and the nails are still there. I love it! She is meticulous and really pays attention to details. I always get so many compliments on my nails. Thank you Nicky - you are hard gel queen! read more

Got a pedicure and gel x done at Pinkies. This was my first time here. Staff was friendly and the facilities are clean. Wonderful, relaxing environment. I LOVE my toes, Jessie did such a great job on them and her attention to detail was awesome. I am incredibly picky. That being said, I LIKE my nails. Not my favorite gel x French tip, but they still look nice. There is bubble left on my thumb and there isn't as much of an arch in the French as I'd like, but still a good outcome. However, I would still recommend this place. read more

I just remembered why I don't come here anymore! Had a 3:00 appointment and showed up before my scheduled appointment and had to wait over 30 minutes! Then I was finally seated (at the same time as four other people) and technician was going to start on me until another woman said she had been waiting and wanted to get started because her friend already got started! Are you kidding me?!!!! Why is someone else getting service when I've been waiting? Whoever is scheduling appointments needs to do a much better job of accurate tracking! And as for the two women who cut in before me.... $&@?! You, entitled people! read more

Just had the best experience at Pinkie's Danville! Two days ago, my best friend and I went in for pedicures and they were amazing! I was nervous because I had never had a pedicure, but our tech was incredible! She was patient, kind and gentle, plus the pedicure looks fabulous. Had such a great experience that I called the next day for a new set of Gel-X nails, as I was unhappy with the filled set I had from another salon. Nikki was absolutely incredible. The set I had on was applied super thick, so it took extra time to remove, which she did expertly. She is a perfectionist and took time to find the exact right sizes, made sure all the nails were set perfect, the length and shape was exactly what I wanted and that I loved the color. I seriously could not have had a better experience and I am OBSESSED with my nails! Will definitely be a dedicated client after these two visits!! Highly recommend!! read more

I am happy to see that Pinkies has a new owner! My mom, daughter and I went for pedis/manis today, and a lot has been improved. First of all, the nail polish selection was MUCH better. They have all of the usual suspects, but they also now carry many shades of Zoya, a non-toxic, formaldehyde-free polish. I bought a color before going because the old Pinkies never had good colors, but they have a boatload now! The new owner is very nice and on top of her business. Most of the nail techs are the same. All of the pedicure chairs seem to be working. The remotes are clean and new, and all of the massage and reclining functions work great! The only things I miss are the big pillows for resting your magazine while you get pampered and the green tea they used to offer. Pinkies used to be my last option choice, but they have moved to my top choices now! read more

Called in for a walk in appointment and walkes in for a pedicure. Front desk was fine. I don't expect awesome customer service at these places. Lady proceeds to trim my toe nails and after adding polish, I notice that the right side of the nail bed is rounded and the left side is squared. I mention it to her and she proceeds to tell me to tell her next time before the polish because it's more difficult for her... Do I really need to tell you to make the toenails uniform throughout? Don't think I'll be coming back to "tell her" to trim my nails uniform throughout. read more

I'm beyond happy how my nails turned out! Anna is so talented! She's also so sweet and makes you feel 100% comfortable the entire time. I will be going to see her from now on. You should get your nails done by her! You won't be disappointed! Well worth the money. Update: it's been a few hours since I've gotten my nails done. I don't know how but I love my nails even more now! So much so I haven't been able to do much for the rest of the day since I couldn't stop staring at them! Highly recommend Pinky's nails and Anna! read more

I had gone to Pinkies last month based on a recommendation. I was not impressed with their service. I had gel manicure. Was rushed even though they were not busy. The gel manicure has lasted less than 2 weeks. I went back to ask them to fix just one nail and they would but with a significant charge. I get it. Thought I would give them a second chance. I went back today for a regular pedicure. When I called for the appointment, they asked if I could come in 30 minutes earlier than I requested. I agreed. Unfortunately, once I go there for the time they asked, I had to wait over 30 minutes. The pedicure was ok- never asked what I wanted. I did let her know I did not want any nailpolish on. Unfortunately, they rushed (I had 2 different people that did not talk with me. The first person just left), the "massage" was less than 1 minutes per foot, she started adding nail polish even though I let her know I didn't want polish. Finally, at check out, they added $5 just to take off my previous gel. The experience was disappointing. I understand that everyone has bad days but it was not the greatest the first time. I like to support locally but this time it was horrible....not to mention my friend was with me and had equal experience. Neither of us will support again. We pay too much to be treated like a hamster. read more

I'd give this place 3.5 - 4 stars. I made an appointment a week or two in advance for my girlfriend and myself to get two dip manicures and regular or shellac pedicures. When we got there they had my name and time-slot reserved but there was a lot of confusion about the services we wanted done. Also there is only one person that knows how to do dip manicures, and she thought our appointment was 30 mins after the time we called and reserved for. Anyways, the place was a bit chaotic but the pedicures turned out great. The manicures were not bad, but I wouldn't go back... they didn't have a good selection of dip colors and the colors they did have are so light you can still see natural nail color beneath which I personally don't like. Photo attached. read more

I went yesterday to the salon for the first time. The place is large and fairly clean. The person who did my pedi was Nikki, I asked to get rid of all my cuticles but she stilll a lot was left all around which pushed the nail polish away from the skin and there is a black border all around which I told her several times that I don't like that. Also, first time to see someone that doesn't file your nails except after she put the nail color and top coat, then she files it which was so weird for me. Also, never cleaned under the toe nails. All in all, was not worth the visit. Also, she focuses only when she puts the nail polish, but very distracted by always talking and looking to her colleagues while working on my feet which I found very odd. read more

ZERO STARS is not an option and it should be. I buy gift certificates for clients and colleagues. I do this regularly. I paid for a particular gift certificate from Danville Pinkie's for someone and when she presented it, she was turned away and told to go to Lafayette instead. They rejected her as well and said to go back to the Danville location. She then went back to the Danville location assuming they had made an honest mistake. They again refused to accept it and turned her away, while being very rude. I posted this on Nextdoor.com and just since yesterday 128 people have seen or commented on the post echoing similar experiences of rudeness and rejection of gift certificates. Even if the location is now owned by someone new, which some suggested was possible, you buy the assets and obligations of a new business and instead of denying an responsibility, they could use the gift certificate as an opportunity to create a new, lasting client connection. This store was paid to provide future services and they refuse to do so. I wrote to them and asked them to contact me and they have refused to respond to me either. This is FRAUD and CRIMINAL. Do not support this location, do not support this owner and do not support this business. read more
