I have wide clumpy nails.. I was so pissed I told her to file more.. well I got cut bad. she just said oops then goes on. I paid only $20 but never again... I hate my nails!! I just go clumpy wide clear nails. read more

For someone who does not get their nails done regularly, they made me feel very welcome and didn't harass me over my cuticles. As the only girl in my house I don't get to go and get mani-pedis often, but I will definately make an effort to go to Fancy Nails when I do! read more

The most terrible place. First of all the service was slow and terrible, the work was sloppy. The french solar pink and white was nasty, they used so much chemicals that my fingers burned for two days after, I had to go to another nail salon to have them removed and get the nails done properly. read more

Worse place... No customer service skills.. Told me they could do my nails and then said no can't because we will be closing in 50 mins!! All I wanted was a fill are u serious! Never coming here. read more

I didn't realize she was filing my nails too short!! She cut my nails to short and file burnt my nails cause she was filing too much

I had recently moved down to the Modesto area and a friend highly recommended B but she only worked weekends. I wanted to get my nails done for a wedding and went ahead and decided to take a chance on another person. I was sat by one of the older woman who was not friendly and not familiar with pricing. I had picked out my shade and was told 30$ for gel and another 2$ for matte and another 5$ because of the length of my nails. She didn't try to talk to me unless to tell me the price. I had asked multiple times if they charge extra for shape too but was ignored. I have a set of nails that are too short and not the shape I want. I will not be coming back. read more

Fancy Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Modesto, California

Stopped by here for a manicure before doing some grocery shopping at the nearby Savemart. The wait time was not long at all and I was able to see one of the nail techs. The atmosphere in the salon was very nice. The one thing that stuck out was the cleanliness of the salon. I got my nails done and they looked great, also the prices were very reasonable. Overall I was very happy with my experience and will definitely be returning! read more

Charged me $26 for a gel manicure/fill. They completely ignore their price list and don't care when you tell them that their price chart says $20 for a gel manicure. Asked to speak to the manager and of course the one who speaks the worst english ends up being the manager. Pass on this place. read more

Do not go. read more

This place is absolutely the worst nail salon I have been to! I went in with two daughters to get our nails done and while they were doing my nails the woman was hurting me and kept digging her nail under mine. My nails were fat a lumpy, not done well at all, I shouldn't have paid. A few days later I just couldn't stand the ugly fat nails anymore so my daughter and I went back to have them removed, the staff all were mean towards us and just started tearing off our nails without even soaking them, I told her she was hurting me and needs to soak them. She then stormed off and got the acetone and just tossed it down and told me to put fingers in and she walked away. If that wasn't bad enough one of the women just kept mad dogging me and then all of them were talking shit in their language and looking at me! I was done. I told my daughter lets go somewhere else! Turns out the lady was hurting my daughter as well! We left and went to Nail Tek on McHenry and Standiford and let me tell you the staff there was awesome and they did our nails beautifully. I will NEVER go back to Fancy Nails! They need to treat paying customers better! read more

Excellent customer service! Walked in and only waited 5 minutes to get a pedicure. Two thumbs up!!

My posted pics were taken the same day I got my nails done. I went here on a whim since I was shopping at the grocery store within the plaza and I regret ever going. I don't wear fake nails so I get shellac on my natural nails which is not supposed to chip for a couple of weeks. I also got a pedicure of the same color. The tech that did my nails insisted that I cut them down though I did not want to do so. I allowed her to cut a small amount but she filed them in such a way that they were weakened beyond the nail bed. The tech that did my pedi kept hurting my toes. There sat an older customer next to me that asked her tech to make sure she dug out her hangnails like the other tech does (the "other tech" was the one doing my pedi). I think my tech assumed her aggressive approach is needed on everyone's toes, which is not the case. My toes are always done so at best she had a minute amount of cuticle to clip. This woman was digging for gold or something and I finally had to tell her to lay off or I was leaving. The rest went off as expected. The nails looked nice at 1st but the shellac chipped almost immediately. I was getting ready to return to the shop to complain when I realized it hurt my foot to walk. By this time, I had socks on my feet. When I removed my sock, there was blood dried on two of the toes on my left foot. I had to apply antibiotic and soak my foot for the next couple of days to ensure I did not get an infection. Four days later, half of my nails had broken off because of how thin the tech had filed them and the shellac chipped so bad that I had to remove it. I started to return to the establishment to demand compensation, but what could they do? This was sort of my own fault for not performing due diligence on this salon. I could not even tell you who was licensed and who was not though I am usually on top of that sort of thing. They could not heal my toes nor would I allow them to touch my hands again, so I was SOL. I will never return to this nail salon although I am by it at least twice a week shopping at the grocer. Enter at your own risk! read more

Fancy Nails - Blood around my cuticle after a pedi - Nail Salons Near Me - Modesto, California

See all

While visiting my family in Modesto, I took my mom here to get a pedicure and gel manicure for me. My mother who doesn't get regular pedis was very pleased and said she would continue to get pedis there after I came home. I am happy with my gel manicure, it has been well over a week and my nails still look good...no chipping or cracks. I will definitely come back next time I come to California!!! read more

Some of the rudest employees I've ever been helped by at a nail salon. My mother and I get pedicures/acrylic done often. We made an appointment and still had to wait. During my pedicure, the manicurist scratched her scalp with the opposite end of the manicure tool multiple times (gross). She then proceeded to clean under my nail, ramming it in to a painful extent. I said that it hurt and pulled away, and sheave no apology or anything, and did it again on the other foot. Overall, just very rude and inconsiderate. Will never go back to this salon, and I recommend you don't either. read more

My daughter and I have always gone to Professionails for our nails and toes but they got too expensive lately so we decided to try a new place called Fancy Nails in Modesto. My pedicure was fine however my daughter had a full set of acrylic nails put on and they had the kind of glitter on top that they place by hand with a little brush. Anyways.... it was $60 for the nails alone and within 3 days, her nails were popping off and as if that wasn't bad enough, the glitter was just falling off of the nails. Within 5 days, we had to remove them cause they looked so terrible (the ones left). So $60 for less than a week of having nails that looked like crap. Terrible job by Fancy Nails! Won't be going back there again or recommending to anyone. read more

I was so disrespected. Me and my friend walked in and I asked for two full set. Then the lady said she would help. And then another female walks in and she takes her before us. Mind you she was a walk in to. Then a different lady comes over and we start ask how much would this cost or how much would this cost. And her price kept going up with every with every question we asked. Then my friend sat down and was about to get started and the lady snatched the colors out my hand while I was looking at them. Then I stood there for 5 minutes while my friend was trying to get a Definite price with out any help. read more

"why yo finger go lie that" uhm because you don't know how to put it on straight.. both index fingers are retarded .. over it . never going again . one of the worst sets i've ever had done . read more

They had nice gel colors. That was about it. The lady doing my nails did not listen to anything I wanted, was extremely rough with my hands that my nails are sore the next day. I came here out of convenience and it ended up being an awful waste of time and money. I'm never coming back here again. If you have a choice, don't come here. read more

The ladies in here were very rude to myself and my two friends. Wouldn't let us sit together because they didnt want to clean one pedicure tub. Then asked if i was ready to go after i had already paid with a tip while my nails were still drying, i said no im fine here thanks, and then she proceeded to put my shoes on and told me bye while i still had wet nails. So i left while my friend was still finishing her pedicure! They werent almost closing and there were only two other customers in the building so they didnt need the space. I have never in my life experienced such horrible customer service. I will never return and will tell everyone i know to never go here. My friends will also do the same. read more

The reviews were pretty good about this place and it was close to where I worked, so thought I would walk in there one day...well, the whole experience was horrible. I was taken to a table where I waited for a few short minutes, the lady came and asked me what I wanted, I told her....she didn't like what I wanted her to do: I wanted a fill and I wanted the nails shorter than most people. She huffed and started to cut the nails off and I kept having to tell her "shorter, shorter" every time I said that, she huffed some more. That was enough to make me say to myself "never again!". Then I told her I wanted the nails squared and she refused and made them round. I almost walked out but stayed because I guess I'm a glutton for rude old people. Well, she finished and then charged me for a brand new full set! By this time, all I wanted was out of there, so I paid and left. It is now almost 3 weeks since then and I have nail fungus on 3 of my nails. Now, I have been getting acrylic nails for about 25 years and NEVER have I had FUNGUS!!!! Now, I have to remove the nails and wait until they grow out before putting more on...this really upsets me as I work in a profession where people see my hands and nails so I like them to look nice. Do not go here...don't end up like me with fungus infested nails. 4/12/13 I was just able to take off the rest of my nails and there is fungus on ALL OF THEM!!!! Worst place ever!! and I don't understand why my review does not show up on the front page and why it's been "filtered", people need to see the good and bad reviews!! read more

I came here for the first time to get acrylic and my nails were horrible! They were crooked and too big for my nails. When filling my nails she was hurting my cuticle.

Not a very friendly staff. I went in for a gel manicure. They filed my nails so short they the dark color I got looks a little garish. Absolutely no hand arm massage or lotion. And you pay $25! Still not sure for what though. read more

Today was my first time going to Fancy Nails & I have to say I was impressed! After a bad experience with the nail salon across town that I've been going to for years, I decided to try something close to home. I walked in at 3:30 to a full line of ladies in pedicure chairs. Asked if they would have time to do a pedicure & a full set for me, they said no problem it would just be about 15 minutes. I waited not even 10 minutes & was then given a fabulous pedicure from a very friendly woman. She did a great job cleaning up the dead skin & trimming cuticles, was meticulous in scrubbing any rough spots (lots of those being summer/flip flop season!) & did a lovely job with the polish. She also massaged my feet & legs for a good amount of time. Mind you, this was the $20 basic pedi! Another lady did my nails, at first she wasn't very talkative & I was almost concerned she wouldn't do a good job. BUT let me tell you, she opened up & was extremely friendly & did a beautiful job with my nails. I get a full set with gel polish, they charged $30 & it was well worth it. She was so detail oriented getting the shape of my nails perfect (I like them oval) & making sure they were all perfectly matching. They close at 5p on Sunday, but she stayed until 6p making sure that the job was done well. I truly appreciate when salons will stay open late to accommodate a later in the day walk-in. I can say that I will absolutely be going back to Fancy Nails for my next fill & pedi. Fantastic customer service & im very happy with the results. read more

Fancy Nails - Very happy with the care she put into shaping & polishing my full set. - Nail Salons Near Me - Modesto, California

I decided to go to them because they were closer to home than my previous nail salon. The nail tech that did my nails was young and eager to please. I thought all was good until I got home and two nails chipped off within the week. I did go back and they fixed them for free but again my nails chipped after I left. I don't know if they filed them too thin or what but I wasn't happy. I gave them another chance and this time the polish must have been really old because it never seemed to harden and my nails got knicked. I went back again and they fixed them for free but by then I decided it was best if I try somewhere else. read more
