Michelle R.

I specifically asked for a pedicure, manicure and full set at least three times and I never got my manicure so my cuticles feel terrible and she did a terrible job on my full set of nails leaving a gap underneath between my nail and the tip, so water and food get under them and I need to pull them off now or pay someone else to remove them and this all cost me almost $100 for a short set and pedicure with gel, and they never say a word to you after they all you what want, which I get as some go to relax, but usually they ask if you like what they are doing and such. Not a good vibe at all.

broooooo. i used to go here all the time and they got new people working and they SUUUUUCK bro. i paid 100$ for this crap. took the lady 2 hours and 8 minutes - 2 FLIPPING HOURS to do my finger nails. (it was a fill- my previous nails were from this business) i was going there for a long while and they lost me forever. can't even paint in the lines like seriously? and no they weren't busy at all. i was the only one in there for a long time before another girl came along. DO NOT RECCOMEND ANYMORE. (most of their 5 star reviews are just so they can have a few bucks off their nail set, but i'm being genuine.)

I usually go to another place but it was packed so I came across this place. I called a day before and scheduled an appointment for the next day at 6pm. I arrived to my appointment and parking was a bit limited because of the food for less that's located in that shopping center. I arrived at 5:59pm. I was helped at 6:15pm not too bad of a wait. They have many many nail colors to choose from. Lee was the name of the nail tech and she payed attention to detail. I will definitely be coming back again I loved the service.

Highly recommend this place. I wanted to thank Helen who did my nails beautifully and was very conscious of my time!

I've been coming to this nail salon for 10+ years! The salon has new machines for pedicure and is always super clean! I always get amazing service! I do my Pedicure every 2 weeks with Paula and my Dip powder manicure with Kim Le or Helen! They always leave me feeling clean and brand new! Never disappoints! Definitely recommend

Maggie C.

I Have been going here for many years now and they have always done a great job. Lee is the one that always does my pedicures and she makes sure she cleans them good and takes out my ingrown and she always asked me if i still feel anything and cleans it until i feel satisfied. Great service and is always so nice and not to mention she leaves my toes looking beautiful.

Walked in one day after needing previous acrylic work removed. Helen did a great job and she was very gentle and took her time. The process was not painful at all and she didn't pop off the acrylics like they do at most shops. I have been a customer ever since that day and see Helen religiously. She does a great job and it's fun talking with her. Very sweet and honest lady. The nail polish selection is very wide and all the employees try their best to make you feel comfortable and satisfy your nail needs. Pricing is very reasonable and if you see something you don't like, they will gladly fix it.

She really had me walk out like this -____-

Memorial Day. & I took my chance here since my nail place was closed. I should've waited. I spent $70 here for a full set. Always start LONG then go shorter for the customer. Why would she cut so tiny then ask me if I want it that long. I said no longer. She left the pink nail that short!!!!! Wow. Just wow. Even after I pointed it out she said you can't notice after polish. UM I CAN. I'm looking at my nails all day. Embarrassing and a waste of money. I had Requested coffin shape. & she glued on the tips and started filing with just the tips on. OUCH. They were too pointy for my liking so I explained my concern and she added a lot of powder making them chunky and square again. Very sloppy and lazy work here.

Fatima G.

Helen is the best!! Been going there for almost a year and she never disappoints. Show her your inspiration nails and she will do them exactly the same

This is my favorite shop. I always get the best service here and they are so friendly. They always take care of me and very very clean here. Helen is the best. I always get compliments on my nails here. They are professional and very personable. I am always satisfied when I come here. Very fast service too!!

Helen did my nails! Thank you! I made an appointment with her the day before she is very professional and got the design spot on. She will also give you tips on give suggestions to help you save money I really liked that about her.

Katrina A.

So glad after a couple years I made my way back to this shop. I stopped going here after moving to NP from Chula Vista. But I realize the little drive is worth the travel for the service, nails, and price from this place. They have pretty much every color you can think of- and can do pretty much any requests. I'm Deff a fan and now my mom and gal friend go here too! The shop is very clean - the employees are very accommodating and sweet.

LOVE LOVE LOVE! Thank you Helen! Great and genuine service here! I got a gel manicure! Helen and Lee are my go 2's ! I have been coming here for 8+ years!

STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!!!!!!! I booked in appointment walk in and there was only 1 lady working. I came in for a pedicure she had just finished someone else and I saw her poorly wipe down the seat with no sanitazing She did my toes and made me bleed from 3 toes! She was pulling "ingrown" nails from every single toe that I know for a fact I didn't have. She was super rough, and not that friendly. After she got done with me she didn't sanitize ANY nail clippers, cuticle pushers, cutical remover etc. and proceeded to move on to her next pedi with the same utensils she used on me GROSS! Is she not aware of COVID? Also she's doing nails indoor. I'm going on 3 days and my toe is in so much pain I have swelling and dried up blood from her pulling off my skin. I'm afraid I'll get in infection. I do not recommend. read more

I went in @ 10 && was out @ 12:30pm . That's way to long for just a gel fullset. Nails were so uneven paint job looks really bad , it's only been 5 days && my nails look like I've had them on for about 2 weeks. Helen offered to redo the nail polish but I just wanted to leave so bad !! (Helen is the owner she's the best one there ) Ps- she was not the one that did my nails ! I give 2 stars because she's very nice but it's not worth driving here from eastlake anymore :( read more

I've been coming here since 2012! They are clean, friendly and have great prices, options and a variety of services. They remember you and call you by name. Also, they have new amazingly comfortable massage chairs! The only place I go when I need my nails and toes done is Salina Nails. They do an excellent job, have some of the most up-to-date tools,are constantly adding to their color selection for the gel manicures, and.have wonderful hours. I never have any chipping or broken nails in between services. I highly recommend them Helen, Lee, Stephen, Darren and the whole team do a great job. They are so friendly and easy to work with. I will continue to be a loyal customer and recommend them to my friends. read more

1st time experience. I walked in and asked for a MANI & gelish.. She asked me if I wanted pedi & I said no, just mani and gel & she asked me again.. listen to the customer and stop being so pushy! I sit and the guy started to file my nails & then he asks me what shape I want. I said oval and he tried to recommend another one when I said one already. My nails were all dirty from the files & the glue that was used to apply the acrylic. I was assisted by 3 techs and none of them were able to notice that my nails were dirty by their job. I didn't said anything cuz I thought they would notice at the end. We proceed to add the color and it was a 3rd person helping now, she messed up a couple times cuz she couldn't do it right. So again someone else came & got them done for me and the other girl just walked away. While removing the messed up nail polish she twisted my finger and cracked and obviously hurt myself. Not once, but a couple times. I'm so disappointed, i usually leave tips but this time I was extremely upset. I will not come back here and I'll make sure my friends and family know about my experience so they won't have to go through the bad experience I had at this place. read more

I had a bad experience today and I think it was the final straw. I sadly won't be coming back and will need to find a different eyebrow place. First of all, I called to make sure they closed at 6 like their website/yelp says and the girl working there told me 5:45, which seems to me she just wanted to leave early or make sure no one comes in right before 6. Her whole attitude was not welcoming and even though I arrived at 5:20, she made me feel like an inconvenience the whole time. Her whole attitude was just not friendly and more on the rude side. They also increased their prices lately and I just don't think the service is worth it anymore.

So, I wasn't going to leave this review- I was just never going to come back…read more So I was getting Gel X done with extensions, the girl who helped me trimmed my cuticle and caused me to bleed a lot. In her panic, she put super glue on my cut to stop the bleeding, then put a washcloth back on it to stem the bleeding but ended up supergluing the washcloth to my finger. She then ripped the washcloth off my finger (which HURT) and had to spend 5min tweezing off the bits of washcloth that were not glued to my finger. She also gaslit me and said my skin was so thick, so it was my fault. Not only that- but she often applied too much glue and had to keep redoing her applications. Even after that horrific experience- I was going to let it go. I even tipped her $30 because I'm too nice and hate conflict. But we're barely 3 days in having these nails and already my thumb nail popped off in front of my friggin boss. Beware of this place. There's a reason why some people never return.

This place is definitely underestimated ! I asked for a specific design and showed Helen the picture, and she was able to replicate it exactly the way I wanted if not better ! She checked in with me throughout doing my nails making sure I was was satisfied with the way they came out :)) The price you cannot beat! Any other salon will charge you a bunch for stones, designs, and length/shape. Definitely ask for Helen when you go. Steven was super cool also, they will both take care of you read more

I've been coming here for the past 7 years, and since then Helen has been the one doing my nail's. Helen is a great person she's always helping everybody making sure everything goes right and on time. That's when there's a bit of a wait I don't mind waiting because of there good services. I always recommend my friends there and people who ask me where did I get my nails done. Its always been a pleasure to be there with Helen and her new staff...Thank you Helen your the best:) read more

Really good place to get your nails done. Helen is the best!!! I had one bad experience with a trainee once she left my nails to thin and they broke but Always speak to Helen and she'll help out without a doubt. If your not liking something let them know at the moment instead of trying to bring them down on here. Prices are average, and yeah, will continue to go. read more
