    I've been coming to this salon for 3 years and love it, they always do outstanding work, there has not been one time I have been disappointed, I love 3D nail art with a lot of rhinestone, glitter, & I always leave pleased and happy, you won't be disappointed.

    In love with my nails!!

    I highly recommend this place! It's small but they do such a remarkable job. I went in with a bad set of nails done by another nail salon and left with beautiful perfectly crafted nails. It's a bit pricey but absolutely worth it! Make an appointment though because they're always booked!

    Every time I go there's no doubt that Bere works her magic. She is just a wonderful and creative nail technician. She seriously works magic u tell her what u want and that's exactly what you get. I've been going with her for about 3 years now and has not once failed me.

    These ladies are phenomenal!! I absolutely love love love my nails!! Everyone was nice and my appointment was on time. A slice of heaven in Chula Vista. Run don't walk to this place. My new place to be. Thank you ladies.

    I really like my nails and Flora, the lady who did them, was really nice. The only thing I didn't like was that they charged me an extra $5 because my 5 year old daughter wanted a second color on her nails. Other than that, service was great!

    Amazing service. Amazing staff. Nails are on point. I love coming here!!!!!! I don't fawk with the chinitas no more

    Right hand

    Omg. Awful. I just left this place not a happy customer AT ALL! Idk if it was just my luck that I got the worst "nail tech" ever or if all of these women should probably just find a different profession. 1st red flag: she didn't speak a lick of English 2nd: idk if they were trying to get one over on me or what but one lady told me one price and another came at me with something TOTALLY different. I get it sometimes people miss speak but when she asked her about it she was like yeah I told her that much that's what it cost! (If you tell me a certain price then half way into it you try and up it youre outta your mind if you think I'm gunna keep quiet) 3rd: when I pointed out that the nails were crooked and filed down way too much she fixed them but then after applying the acrylic (which is SO BADLY applied and UNEVEN)/LUMPY) over filed and made them uneven, Misshapen and lopsided! I'm sure if the owner seen what a shitty job was done he/she wouldn't have made me pay a cent! Unfortunately I'm not one for confrontation so I paid a whopping $30 for an unfinished horrible "full set" that I will MOST DEFIANTLY have to pay to get fixed elsewhere!!

    I've visited several head spas in San Diego, and Sophia is truly in a league of her own. She's a…read moremaster at her craft, and the level of care, detail, and skill she puts into every service is unmatched. I keep coming back because she consistently delivers the best experience, both in treatment and ambiance. I've tried the Basic Rejuvenation, Dandruff Basic, and Dandruff Advanced, and every single service has been exceptional. From the personalized scalp analysis and herbal tea soak to the hydro microdermabrasion, nourishing serums, and LED therapy, my scalp and skin always leave refreshed, balanced, and glowing. I struggle with dry scalp and eczema, and Sophia is the only person who has truly helped me. Her technique feels like a deep tissue massage for your scalp, plus a soothing face, neck, and upper‑back massage. The herbal steam, calming music, and her perfect pressure create the most relaxing environment. She uses both her hands and professional scalp tools, takes her time, never rushes, and genuinely cares about her clients. She previously owned a salon in Vietnam and taught these services, and it absolutely shows. Her expertise is one of a kind. She even finishes with a blow‑dry so you're not leaving with wet hair. For the quality and time she provides, her prices are incredibly reasonable for the San Diego/Chula Vista area. If you're looking for a head spa that delivers real results, deep relaxation, and a provider who truly knows what she's doing, go to Sophia. You will not regret it.

    I used to be a regular at Peacock Nails and decided to try them again because I couldn't remember…read morewhy I stopped coming. That was a bad idea!!! First red flag, Sammy/Sammie had a face mask around his neck, not his face. He sneezed multiple times during my pedicure but didn't bother to cover his face. Gross! Second red flag, I chose the European pedicure with regular polish but he kept insisting I get gel polish. After refusing multiple times, he reluctantly started my pedi, but seemed really annoyed. Third red flag, he cut my big toe. I felt it immediately and the jerk didn't bother to apologize. WTF! Then I remembered why I stopped coming here. My daughter complained that they would always make one of her toes bleed at every visit. I won't return and I recommend others to stay away too! They definitely need to be retrained on hygiene practices and learn how to properly trim toenails without breaking skin!

Keep your money, IVY hair dresser bleached my hair however she missed to bleach all. She left me looking like a cheetah. She did not add the color I wanted after bleached. When she was done, I told her it was not the color in the picture she insisted it was. When I looked at my hair I seen black spots, she started laughing and said "sorry girl that's your hair it didn't grab there" I told her I need it fixed she said not today. I called her same day I left and she asks me to come back 4 days later to fix. I had to go to work with the horrible hair color. When I asked her if she can fix she said yes but I'll have to charge possibly, I will need to speak to my boss. This is horrible, the right thing to do should have been to correct the color to make the client happy and not keep looking like a clown. No respect nor consideration. She took the money but never offered to make this issue better the day of. She also cut my hair, horrible didn't even part, literally cut straight across. Horrible person, says she been doing hair 10 years. IVY needs to go back to school and learn to cut, color and make her customers happy. Your loss IVY I would have kept going for touch up but you SUCK!
