I showed Tina this photo as my inspo and she recreated it so meticulously to fit my nail shape. I've gotten so many compliments and the gals there are always super sweet and accommodating unlike any other nail salon I've ever been too. Debbie is my other go to gal. :) read more

Absolutely love my nails. Had a great experience and so impressed with the careful attention to detail. I came in with a broken nail and gel nail polish peeling off of my acrylic nails (done at another salon). I appreciate how gentle they were fixing my nail and love the end result of the ombré. Would highly recommend read more

Today I got the best gel pedicure I've ever had. Mimi was so attentive and spent a lot of time attending to my toes that I had to let go. She was very careful to avoid getting the polish on my cuticles, so I expect the pedicure to grow out well. My feet looked and felt fantastic when she was done, and it wasn't exorbitantly expensive! I want to comment on the atmosphere in the shop. It is a small, very clean and when I was there there were mostly local women as customers. Both of the women working there had real emotional connections to the people that came in. Although I was a brand-new customer, I didn't feel like we had to make forced small talk, nor did I feel the tension of an overly busy shop. I felt very comfortable and pampered just showing up for my appointment. read more

Fancy Nails - At home with my pretty pink toes! - Nail Salons Near Me - Seaside, California

Probably the best shellac in town. Came here with a couple of friends of mine and on months later my manicure is still perfect.

Nice little place, clean and they mostly run on time, which is important to me. The guy I got was meticulous in terms of cleaning my hands and nails, double checking the shape of the nails, for hangnails, etc. Unfortunately, the polish job was not that great. I got gel on my fingers and even though it looked like he was looking for polish issues, the polish ended up on my skin, which is a recipe for disaster. Water gets underneath and within 3 days, they start bublling and peeling off. This is my second time here and I'm not all that impressed compared to Top Nails. read more

I was denied service with the excuse of "no time", yet the "Open" sign was on, the salon opens at 9 am and it wasn't even noon, and no one was waiting. I guess because I'm latina with curly hair can't be serviced. The lady pretended to look at an imaginary list lol. Well I am sure my money and business would be appreciated at another establishment. I can't believe it's 2022 and we still have to experience this bs. read more

Went here for the first time today after reading all the positive reviews and they nailed it!! I'm very particular about my nail shape, I like them POINTY (not for everyone, I know lol) and I like them SYMMETRICAL and they did them perfectly!! Called them in the morning and they fit me in their schedule the same day. They take their time with their nails and make sure they're shaped evenly and symmetrical on both hands. Very happy with how they turned out. I believe Debbie did my nails, but from looking around all the other nail techs seemed great as well! All around great salon and pleasant experience. Will be getting my nails done here from now on. read more

On a Friday afternoon I decided to make an appointment to get acrylic nails done by Debbie. that was by far the BEST decision I ever made in my life. My nails look perfect with an amazing shape and she accommodated me so well. The design I wanted was time consuming but she did everything possible to get it how I wanted them to look like and that's why I appreciate her work. I'm glad I have found a new nail technician in the area that I will trust with my nails. read more

I've given this place a chance time and time again, never meeting my expectations. I don't know what their idea of coffin is, but this isn't it. The polish is messy and some of the nails are crooked.. she kept nicking my cuticles and it was very painful now I have to wait to get a new set elsewhere. I e provided and example picture of what coffin should look like I comparison to what I got. read more

I have been going back to the same nail tech for a year now but needed a dip set and pedicure while away on vacation and they got me in the same day. Even though the shop had closed and i was the last appt in there i did not get rushed whatsoever. Everyone in here was really sweet. Set came out perfect. And did i mention my nails.. glow in the dark now ?!?! Cool shit. Thanks girls! read more

Great little hidden gem! I took my mom her for a girl's mani pedi day last weekend. The girls here are so warm and welcoming. They did a great job on both of us. The warm lotion and hot towels smell and feel SO good. I hope to come back the next time I'm in the area. Make sure to book an appointment beforehand! read more

I love how small and quaint this shop is. Makes it feel very welcoming. I have gotten my nails done here twice and will definitely continue going. I love that when you walk in they know your name. It's more personal rather than a super busy big shop. I showed an idea from Pinterest for this second visit and she did not disappoint at all. read more

The only reason I'm giving 3 stars is because of the owner, Mimi. I see plenty of good reviews in her name and really wonder why. I have been coming here for a while now and have loved every set I left with UNTIL I had the owner do my nails. I had an appointment which I showed up early for and waited 10 min for, to be sure I wasn't holding them up. Once Mimi starts doing my nails, an older woman walks into the shop demanding to get her nails done. Mimi informs her that her appointment isn't until the NEXT week. The woman was at my table, in my face with no mask on. Not trying to sound harsh, but the woman smelled as though she hadn't bathed for months and was now rudely yelling in my ear. Instead of holding the woman to her appointment, Mimi consoled the woman and rushed me through my appointment (which I showed up for ON THE RIGHT DATE) to help this rude woman. Besides the rude woman, she is constantly answering the phone and writing in appointments while trying to do nails... I have been picking acrylic from under/around my nails since I left the shop. I left looking like I already needed a fill because the cuticles weren't trimmed as they usually are and the paint didn't go all the way back. The shape is totally not what I asked for and the gel topcoat she used was dry/clumpy. So now my nails are too. This is just BAD business and is a slap in the face for loyal patrons who actually have respect for your establishment. The youngest woman that works in this salon is your saving grace. Her work is outstanding. She takes her time and makes sure each nail is to her standards, which are high. Mimi should really take a note or 2 from this hard working young woman. I have never felt like she was rushing through the job or not listening to what I wanted. If you do find yourself at Fancy Nail, make sure you get her! Or anyone besides the owner. (Sad right?) read more

UPDATE: my nails are still looking GREAT!!! Well over 1 month later and My nails are still firmly on, the shape is still beautiful and I still get compliments on them!!! I love this place ! Tried this place after the reviews and I got Debby. First off, I called to make an appt and let them know I was 15 minutes away, they said they could see me at the time. Second, Debby always made sure that I liked the nails before she did the next step and I can't express how much I APPRECIATE that! She wanted to make sure I got the nails I wanted and she is so precise and took her time making sure she got every crevice, that they are symmetrical, that I didn't have acrylic sticking to me etc. she really is so skilled and detail oriented, it made my experience all that better. Third, good prices! They recently updated the prices but I'm from OC and typically get my nails done for $18-20$ and this shop isn't too far off - a full set acrylic, regular polish for 30$ I will definitely be returning, very nice people, even remembered my name when I was leaving(: Debby is awesome, excited to get a new style next time I go!! read more

Best nail salon I've ever been to. The staff takes extreme care to do an excellent job consistently, and they are always so kind. With other salons I've been to, often I just feel like I am another customer they're trying to get out the door as fast as possible. Not here, they actually make the experience relaxing and you leave with beautiful nails that last. Only place I'll go! read more

To start off this review should've been written years ago. My family has been coming here forever! The owner MiMi is amazing at acrylics & will create anything you throw at her for nail designs. She books up fast so call to make an appointment. They are a small nail salon with 3 seats for pedicures & 3 seats for manicures. Making it a very nice place to go together with my Grandma since we can get our pedis at the same time right next to each other. I personally only see Debby for my pedicures. She removes my ingrown toenails each time completely & her massage is BOMB! Their prices are very reasonable too. A lot to chose from for gel polish & regular polish. They have SNS dip nails too!! read more

I really like this nail salon! I came from San Diego with more nails salons then gas stations, and this place has many great qualities. 1) They are always on time with my nail appointment. 2) They remember your name and the services you like. 3) You can't beat their lower prices--so nice after coming from San Diego. 4) Debbie does my Gel mani and it's always perfectly done, not too thick, never on my cuticles, etc. a quality gel manicure. 5) Debbie also does my pedicures and she really digs out my ingrowns---most will not take the extra 5-10 minutes to get my nails right. 6) They have never pressured you for additional services or said "only $5 dollars more". They are NOT that kind of nail salon. Call in advance to make an appointment. Not because they won't make time for you, but because they will always make time- stay late and it's the courteous thing to do at smaller nail salons. They have 3 regular manicurists, 3 pedicure chairs, 4 manicure stations. read more

Amazing!!! Took their time on my nails and got the shape PERFECT... 10/10 recommend Also came from bay area 100x better then any place i've been to! read more

Was denied service, which is totally understandable if you're book up all day but they didn't even ask to book me in for another time or day. Just No! read more

My go to nail place and I love it here and all the staff is so welcoming and nice. I highly recommend calling at least a week in advance for an appointment because they tend to fill up fast and have limited seats. This place consistently great service and an absolute hidden gem! I made the mistake of going to another place the last time and I regretted it! They have great prices and exceptional service. What I truly appreciate about this place is they actually do take their time and will decline people and say sorry no appointments. Many salons you go to say yes and rush you along to get the next person seen but this is not the case here. read more

Compelled to write about this nail salon because they are that good. Mimi took care of me with a regular pedi and acrylic manicure. And I didn't catch her name but I think the owner did my eyebrows. Pedi: Mimi took her time and was very gentle and thorough in cleaning my nails. I'm elated at the detail of her care. The massage was a cherry on top for sure. I'll be asking for her again! Mani: again so extremely thorough and gentle. I've been to places where they were rough on me when filing but this place is a definite professional. She listened as to what I wanted and did an amazing job. Eyebrows: not bad. I just needed a clean up and she did great. Overall this place does an amazing job with no rush and for the price you can't beat. They are also so sweet so that helps :) the paintings all around are really cute too. Come here for the detail, price and hospitality. read more

I came here to get my nails done for the 1st time. All I can say is this place is AMAZING and the prices are outstanding especially for the type of work she did. I will definitely be going back. I'm just so happy with how my nails came out! I normally drive to Fremont to get my nails done. But I'm glad I found a local nail shop that knows how to do nails especially shape them the way I like (I am extremely picky when it comes to the shape of my nails) also they have LOTS of colors and designs to pick from!! MiMi your the BEST!!!!! read more

This place made me never want to get my nails done anywhere else again! My fill was $30 and was "$5 extra" for the nail art i wanted, which was insane for the almost two hours she took on them! The lady doing my acrylics was so meticulous and made them perfect, even when i wanted to change from square to coffin shape and with my nail art request that ended up beautiful. I was thoroughly impressed, and it was a nice calm environment. I love the few birds that they have in there chirping away :) Seriously coming back for all my fills and pedicures, the prices are unbeatable and the quality is so high. Highly recommend!! Also they have such a cute holiday nail art collection! read more

Amazing pedicure! Meticulous nail work and heavenly massage. Don't be thrown off by pet birds when you walk inside. My only complaint was the very old polish available, most of the paint was separating and discolored. They made my toes look perfect though, not a crack or bubble on these babies :) read more

Yelped to find another nail salon that met my personal needs. I came upon the Fancy Nail page and found amazing reviews with 4-5 stars and the pictures spoke the loudest. I scheduled an appointment and I showed up and was greeted. I did wait 30mins past my appt to be helped but wasn't bothered at all because they worked my daughter in for a pedi and the person who did my nails listened to what I wanted and boy did she deliver. I love my nails! She was very attentive and took her time, she wasn't rushing to get the next person in the chair at all. Definitely found my home salon. Book an appointment, they're amazing don't be surprised if you have to waiting to get it. It's worth it. read more

I did not have an appointment. They were busy, and asked if I could come back in an hour. I asked if they would mind if I waited, since I was waiting for a local car place to finish detailing my car, and I had walked there. They didn't mind, and got to me in less than an hour. The young lady who took care of me was very thorough. I am very glad, as I have reached a point in my life where reaching my own toes may never happen for me, anymore. I will probably be a "regular." The adventures of old age! Edit: I went back, got a different manicurist. She clipped me once on each foot. She didn't apologize, just kept peeking up at me like she was hoping I hadn't noticed. Both spots got infected. It was quite painful. I won't be back. read more

Came here based off of Yelp reviews and I was not disappointed! They are extremely friendly, their work is amazing, and they take their time with you! I came in for a fill and a picture off of Pinterest and she gave me exactly that. It was a gold ombré glitter tip. She used loose glitter and gel glitter. At first I was concerned with her wanting to use loose glitter (one time they wanted to charge me $50 for loose glitter at another location) And when I told her why I was hesitant to get the loose glitter she reassured me that it'd stay the same price because I used gel. My wife ended up getting a fill too and only used nail polish and was never pressured to get gel. I feel like they honestly want to give you what you want and not trying to get money out of you. There was only 2 ladies working when I went so I definitely recommend making an appointment beforehand. After 2 years of living in the area I finally found my regular nail place! read more
