I've been coming to The Nail Club in Santa Cruz for years, and it truly feels like my go-to spot…read moreevery single time. The quality, the consistency, and the welcoming environment are exactly why I keep coming back. David in particular is amazing. He always knows exactly what I like -- sometimes I don't even have to explain it. He pays attention to the details, remembers my preferences, and consistently delivers nails that are clean, polished, and exactly my style. That kind of attentiveness is rare and so appreciated. What I love most is the reliability. After years of coming here, I can honestly say the service has remained consistent. The team is friendly, professional, and makes you feel comfortable from the moment you walk in. If you're looking for a nail salon in Santa Cruz that values long-term clients and delivers quality work every time, I highly recommend The Nail Club -- and definitely book with David.

I really wanted to like this place - the staff were friendly enough - but the actual manicure was a…read morehuge disappointment. I came in for a simple gel manicure, and the results look terrible. The gel polish is flooded all over my cuticles, it's already cracked in several spots, missing in others, and the paint itself is uneven and lumpy. It genuinely looks worse than when I walked in. For the price and the time spent, I expected at least a clean, smooth finish. Unfortunately, I won't be returning.

After reading the last two 1-star review's it is clear to me that these people should seek some…read moreserious help. I have been going to Eva and her husband for over two years now and so has my daughter. I go twice a month and every time we walk in, we are greeted by our names, and Eva and her husband always have smiles on their faces. Eva does amazing nails and her husband does a great job with pedicures!! The have always used sterile instruments and I've personally watched them clean their pedicure bowls after each client. So stating any different is just childish.Their prices are EXTREMELY reasonable and if anyone has ever asked for a full set with design, you know you're looking at $80 to $100 dollars, especially when it's done well. The comments below truly disgust me. Never would Eva or her husband hold someone "hostage" or "kidnap" them due to non-payment. That is an insane comment. Also the horrible comment about not speaking English is wildly ignorant and stating that Eva's husband eyes have no soul, is disgusting. I have personally reported those comments and I'd appreciate others who have been to Kathy's to do the same. I have nothing but appreciation for them and the art they create. They are WONDERFUL people and it makes me sad to see people writing reviews with such hate. Next time (girl below) go somewhere else if the "vibe" was off from the beginning. Also, educate yourself more when you speak on behalf of people's language barriers and accusations that can actually in turn, get you into a lot of legal trouble.

However, the second time I went, the guy who did my pedicure seemed to rush even though it was just me. He filed the skin on the side of my big toe so bad it bled and stung for days afterwards. All of my nails were cut sideways too and now I have an extremely painful ingrown nail on one of them. The whole thing was mediocre at best. The ladies have all been very sweet and welcoming, but be careful if you get the guy:(

I asked for them to leave my nail length to the tip of my fingertips. They got four out of 10 correct. That leaves six that were way shorter than I had requested. The second issue is, they didn't wait for my nails to dry, and so at least a couple of Nails were messed up. Not bad but enough to be able to tell.

I decided to leave because they obviously didn't care to help me, after telling me I could come in. Don't waste your time. In the past I have had them, pass me to multiple people during manicure/pedicure. I'd rather just have one person.
